Phone rebooted twice today

I'm wondering why this is happening, it has done it before but 2 times within 3 hours. I'm beginning to worry... Any ideas?
Oddly enough it seems to do it right when I pick it up to use it.

I had mine reboot on me today as well, it's the stock rom with root. I didn't pick it up. It happened while I was tethered using the free Wireless Tether App and the phone was asleep.

Yea, I don't even have root.. it has done it 2 more times since my first post.

Probably was just hot at those times and just rebooted. I don't think you should be too worried

one of my co-workers has been having the same issue. (completely stock as well). Mine has rebooted a handful of times, at least once that was possibly at the exact time as my co-worker's. He's called in enough that they are offering to replace the phone.

Me Too
My phone has been rebooting more and more recently. I suspect it is very poor signal causing the phone to work too hard, triggering a reboot. My will get to 109 degrees for no particular reason, and then start rebooting.
My warranty replacement (refurb) is expected today.

Random Freeze and reboot??

Hey just wondering if anyone else's phone has this issue. But, Sometimes my phone seems to freeze up and completely reboot. Possibly its trying to handle to many task??

Do you have setcpu or a OC kernal by any chance?

I am having this happen also... I have had to remove my battery three times today to reboot the phone.
I have set CPU installed, is that a bad idea?

I'm rooted with just the stock OS, no mods at all and my phone will randomly reboot every two or three days.

Mine has the new rom the leaked one and does this so often like after every 2-3 songs. Did it with the stock rom too.

No, I'm rooted with straight stock. No set CPU or anything of that nature. But like I said even then ill get complete freezes and then a reboot. Or occasionally ill attempt to open an app and the phone will reboot!!

did you wipe your SD cards when you flashed the new rom? I don't have this behavior but I did have FC's and such because of some files on the SD. I have NONE of this behavior. Something is wrong for you, nothing is wrong with JI2 and freezing/rebooting.

I used to have this problem all the time too whenever I tried to use the gps, but since I've applied the leaked update that problem has gone away. But it seems like you're experiencing the issue at more random times. Have you noticed any particular pattern? For example, whenever you try to play music in the background and read a website at the same time.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

Yup mine is bone stock not Rooted and it will lock up just siting there GPS, wireless and Bluetooth off in a very good signal area.

Same here on both roms. I thought the lag fix was causing the freeze. But now im stock jit2 and root.
Had the same with gps and maps with old firmware.

I haven't had this issue happen since I applied the flashable gps fix. Maybe it was an issue with an app that wanted to use GPS running in the background?

This has happened to me several times while booting gps and only recently started happening while playing pandora, but not as frequent as while using the gps...not rooted

Mine has only frozen up once and it was at the end of a call screen turned off. I hit power and went to go unlock and it turned off again.. Would not turn back on but I know the phone was still on since I had apmobile enabled and it was still transmitting wifi connection. Oh I was using eugene's FrankenTwiz (underclocked to 400mhz)when it happened but same thing happened to my girlfriend and she had hybrid r3. Other than phone runs fine.

Ive had some odd reboots where I dont get a shutdown or boot animation or sounds, just freezes, goes black, keys light up, searching for signal boot process. Yesterday in maps trying to troubleshoot my gps. Stock rom,rooted, Ryan's lagfix.
Vibrant vibrating nicely now,Kthx!

Have the phone replaced. I had a phone that would randomly freeze and/or reboot. Nothing I did would fix it.
I talked to a T-mobile worker who had the same issue with one of the early demo-phones Samsung loaned to him. They just replaced his without every saying what the problem was.

I've been having this happen a lot lately myself, it happened to me before on stock ROM due to SetCPU, but now on the leaked ROM. I did not clean the SD card (internal or external), so will give that a shot when I have some time to copy files on/off the SD cards (one reason to dislike the internal SD is that I have to mount it to copy the files, ergh).

Most Terrifying expierence!

So i was odin-ing back to stock when for some reason Odin stopped. I start freaking out cause what else am i gonna do. My wife hates that i play with my phone.
Back in the early days of vibrant i effed up a voodoo lagfix (was able to fix it), but it cost me $50 buck when i had to send the replacment phone back after fixing mine.
So (like a noob) i unplug my phone and leave it in download mode. Nothings working.
I turn the phone off (again LIKE A NOOB), and it give me this angry picture of a cell connected to a PC...
Lost my Sh*t!!!!
However, was able to get into download mode, retore stock, and avoid a sexless month.
So, who has a good OMGZ-BRICKED-MY-PONE-OH-WAIT-NO-I-DIDNT moment...

I'd be willing to bet 99% of people on this forum have had this go down and freaked out the first time. It's one of those things that's inevitable when messing with this stuff.

i feel ya bro. I once spent 3.5 hours trying to odin before it went thru. I was sick to my stomach. Thought my phone was done!!

I once used a broken USB cable that I broke earlier (but forgot). It made very VERY poor contact with the phone so it disconnected if the phone was touched.
I used that cable with ODIN. Needless to say, it disconnected MANY times and I kept thinking I'm done. Finally I remembered the cable is broken and then I TOOK IT AND HELD IT AS TIGHT AS POSSIBLE with the USB contact.
Scarriest hour of my life.

I pulled the USB early, just before Odin says completed, on a bootloader flash. Holy **** what a scary moment. It booted up fine though.

Haha I did this too outdated odin and bootloaders dont mix. I had to flash it at least 5 times to get it to take. Odin wouldnt recognize on the com after every bad flash unless I reboted. The last time I couldnt get back to download so I flashed it in the phone!pc screen with a different odin and it worked like a charm. Stomach was churning like it was trying to make butter lol.

First time I used ODIN my roomate accidentally unplugged my phone (cable was crazy loose)... wound up on the phone---!---PC screen and that was scary as crap. Took a little while, but I figured it out
Basically, unless you're in the realm of bootloaders, this phone is difficult enough to brick (which I'm very thankful for!)

The burning question in my mind is, do you mean the failed upload attempts?
...or the month your kick-banned from hanky panky... because of course you keep trying, and eventually you get there. waka waka waka

Tried to flash my phone while driving, I hit a road bump and next thing, I know ODIN stopped working and my phone had a bunch of garbage display on the screen.
C*0000000*** something like that.
used Jig back to download mode. But the remaining 30 minutes drive back to my desk was horrifying.

Been there, done that
You tried to flash your phone while driving??
I used Clockwork mod to flash back to a Rom I liked better with a nandroid backup and it just got into a bootloop. I kept trying, but the only thing I could get to work was to Odin back to a stable Eclair build I had on hand.
BUT it gave me a red FAIL and just stopped mid-way through. However, when I unplugged and started my phone it came up just fine. PHEW!
Hours of fiddling and my wife was also all like "What the heck are you doing??? Can't you leave well enough alone???"
No. Of course not.

First time I got a soft brick I was scared as **** but then I learned about Odin I was so happy

[Q] 3G dead for me no idea why D:

Well for some odd reason my 3G isn't functioning correctly. It randomly appears and disappear. Started happening after my last flash. If anyone could help me with this I would appreciate it. But for now no more flashing. Also I would appreciate to help out if anyone needs help.

Switched from ciscogee's rom to normal deodexed rom.. then put trailblazers mods cause I never really checked what all it had. and as soon as the phone booted up from flashing that's when the 3g started acting funny. but it's all good now. and no one to blame. just my mistakes.

Just wondered, cause I've had some random odd things going on...wifi not scanning/connecting, notifications not working, weather not updating, apps that did work fine fc'ing, earlier today my soft keys disappeared... they still worked just couldn't see them. Some times the phone runs like a Ferrari, sometimes like a pinto. Rebooting seems to fix it, or jump to another problem. Its almost like sometimes things don't get loaded correctly at boot. Not bad enough to make the phone unusable, but does have me scratching my head sometimes.

Hmm.. that's odd. the only problems I had was that my lockscreen wasn't showing even after I locked it and the whole 3g issue. The lockscreen problem didn't bother me much but the 3g one did. both fix themselves on their own. Rebooting does work. but also when it's booting up it's best to wait and let everything load instead of using it right away. But aside from this don't worry much. These bugs and error will go away soon as we get closer to our goal.

Oh, I'm not complaining! It's still MUCH better than Verizon had it!
Yeah, letting it boot and "settle in" is the way to go...still starts up a lot faster than stock. The only bug that really concerned me was the wifi. It only happened once, so probably just a fluke.
Sent from my SCH-I400 using xda app-developers app

The lockscreen won't show until you toggle the "disable lockscreen" or whatever it's called on and off in TSM parts ---> lockscreen... it'd be a good idea to also choose a lockscreen too, and pick one you like
And I figured out awhile ago why we have some problems, including weather syncing, ticker sleep settings, unsaved options for social network options in ticker options, ticker time delay nut saving, etc etc... it's because there aren't proper permissions given to the dbdata/databases/com.android.settings/tt_prefs or something like that I managed to fix it, and I can release a quick patch that fixes it, I just didn't know anyone else was having the issues, haha

While we're on the subject of odd stuff...anyone had an issue with when you plug in USB with the phone on/screen off the phone locks up? Doesn't matter if its the wall charger or connected to a computer. Have to pull the battery and reboot. If the screen is on or if the phone is off then everything works as it should.

I noticed that my 3G will go out when I'm on wifi, however if wifi isn't connected to internet it will not automatically pick up the 3G. I would recommend if people continue to have problems look and see if toggling off wifi will help bring the network back online. Worked this problem and many others last night. Nearly "bricked" the unbrickable thankfully stayed calm and worked through each problem one at a time and soon will try and reflash CWM and then TB's mods for ec09.

Getting serious withdrawal symptoms

So I bricked my one to the point that it cannot mount, adb, side load and is stuck at the boot screen. Talked to Bell, and they said that they would give me a new one when they have more in stock by Friday. After using the one for a week, its getting really hard for me to use another device. Missing the feel, of it in the hands, the sexy build, amazing speaker sound, the gorgeous display, Zoe and blink feed. It feels weird using my nexus 4 now.

Not trying to be a ****, but you getting a new phone because you bricked yours is stealing. The warranty does not cover you flashing unsupported software, so by getting a replacement for a non-defective device, you're stealing from HTC.
Just so you know.

Not stealing from HTC, but from Bell. And bell can suck a big one.

Well, they don't know the state of the phone yet, so they can say no on Friday. I haven't stolen it yet.

I really hate people that do that. If you break your device man up and try to fix it, which I'm sure it could have been fixed with a little effort. People like you is why insurance is so high and with crazy deductibles.

Fastboot flash the boot.img of whatever rom you're flashing. Odds are, you didn't brick it. Wipe everything first. Flash the rom. Flash the boot.img via Fastboot.

For the record this Device tends to have a lengthy boot up time on HTC screen ....especially on backups and fresh Rom installs ...a lot of people have been getting this mistaken for bricking ... When it's not it's just time ...I'd almost laugh if he isnt letting it sit long enuff to boot up.

K. I have managed to sideload 3 different roms, fast boot, a db push etc. Still doesn't get past the HTC screen. Mounted my USB through otg and did a nandroid restore of Bell's nandroid backup posted by some one. Bell has not released the ruu yet, other carrier's ruu doesn't work. o yeah, flashed stock ROM too. Left the phone on the HTC boot screen for hours, and it doesn't go past boot screen.
Any other suggestions?
BTW, I own 3 other nexus devices that are all rooted, and have been soft bricked numerous times and were easily brought back to stock. My first HTC device with no carrier ruu.

Right...well, mine is gone since 04/13...and I still didn't receive my new phone.

The phone company will decide whether they want to replace it and I've never had any problems with warranty replacements due to custom software. The phone isn't broke and HTC will simply use the parts or re flash it.
All the hysteria over rooting and custom roms breaking warranty is complete nonsesnse
If you burn out your processor over clicking it that's different of course but he hasn't.
Sheesh give the guy a break.
A phone that soft bricks or boot loops as easily as the one should never of been rootable in the first place.
