Phone problem

So all of a sudden my phone got all glitchy, programs don't load they just loop at the beginning and when I hit back button in xda app it restarts the app from beginning anyone experiance this?
atrix 1.83 gingerblurred 3.0

Just out of curiosity do you have a theme ontop of gingsrblur, any boot animations installed via root exp. I am starting to geta couple of issues too. I do not have gingerbler but do have the new gladiatrix themed with my own custom boot. I mostly have issues with my browser's crashing.

I experienced the same issue.This is what I did.
1. Turned off my phone and pulled the battery.
2. Put the battery back in
3. Turned on my phone while holding the volume down button.
4. Scrolled to "Android Recovery" and clicked volume up.
5. Got to the screen with the "recovery triangle" image.
6. Tapped on the screen in the bottom right corner above the "search" soft key, the one that looks like a magnifying glass.
7. Factory reset my Atrix.
8. Reinstalled GingerBlur
9. Rebooted my Atrix and then everything worked fine.
You might want to go with a newer version of the GingerBlur software as well, the developer has been working very hard and is up to v4 now
Hope this helps!

Verizon i815 random reboots

Had my Verizon 7.7 i815 since 4-30 and love it except for one issue - it reboots at least
once a day usually when its connected to the charger.
I need help figuring out if this is a hardware issue so I can just exchange it or if is
software/other issue that I can resolve myself.
When it reboots it goes to a black screen with a single white dot in the center.
It is playing the reboot jingle when this happens.
Sometimes it will bootloop and I have to press the power button for a few seconds to
reset the tab.
Honeybar is installed and AdwLauncherEx is the launcher.
I have tried booting to stock recovery and clearing the cache and did a factory reset - didnt help.
The tab is rooted.
I also removed the Sandisk 16gb microsdhc card after a reboot at 5 am because I had read about users who were having issues with their tabs until removing or switching out their sd cards. The tab went without rebooting after that for 19 hours until I installed
Hidebar. After installing hidebar the tab rebooted twice within a minute so these two instances may be because of that app. I uninstalled it after that and went back to
Honeybar.

I have only experiened a white dot reboot when trying to swap the phone.apk (it was a never ending reboot). I otherwise haven't had it reboot on me. I don't use any bar hiding apps.

Just to be clear my tab was having the reboot issue long before
I installed hidebar - I only installed hidebar tonight and have
owned the tab for a week.
I am however able to cause the reboot consistently with hidebar.

Well the reboots started again after almost an entire weekend reboot free.
Going to exchange it at Verizon for another 7.7 tonight.

Good luck! hopefully the new one is error free.

I've had the same issue with mine, also a vz 7.7.
It was happening in a loop the other day and I managed to capture a video of the entire sequence.
I don't actually think this is a reboot but instead seems to be more of a screen and radio lockup.
I get the little dot in the middle of the screen. After 20 seconds or so the tab goes back to the lock screen. Once unlocked it has to re-connect to either Verizon or Wifi.
I tried disabling the wifi and 3g/4g networks and this seemed to improve the situation but yesterday I was able to get it to do the same thing with the radio's disabled so probably not chip related.
I'm still within my return window I think. Seriously considering returning the thing mainly due to this problem and the lack of ICS.
Had a GT8.9 previously and even though the screen isn't quite as nice it was a pretty great tab and cost half as much *and* can access the awesome AOKP ICS rom.

Yep, development for this tab is non-existent at the moment.
I'm stickin' it out tho and hoping for CM9 sooner or later.

Same here. I can't find a pattern to what triggers it. The first time i was installing a bunch of apps from my computer via Google Play (not tethered to PC). I pull my microsd and sim and it continues for several cycles. Did a bunch of the stuff you did also w/ clearing the cache and actually the first time i couldn't get it out of the loop (it would actually get into the desktop where it looks like it would be ok, then suddenly screen w/ the white dot in the middle and looping again). Never got close to depleting the built-in storage, so that's not the factor.
Sometimes I can get it to stop by turning it off by holding power down and turning it back on again. It doesn't happen a lot, but it's freakin annoying when it starts.
I don't have honeybar, but am running ADW.

Wow, good to know others who are going through the same issue...I thought I was the only one! I still have the reboot loop issue even after performing a hard reset. For me, the reboot loop only occurs when I'm on a cellular connection. If I'm on wifi or on airplane mode, it doesn't happen. I'm well past the exchange/return policy so this is extremely irritating.
Personally, the most frustrating thing is that my tab will be fully charged at the start of my day, then in my bag for the morning while I'm at work and then, when I take it out to use it, the battery is completely drained because of the reboot loop!!!
I'm hoping an update (ICS?) will fix the issue but I'm not holding my breath for it...

Same issue here. I am rooted, and originally thought the reboot was from Gesture Control app (awesome app!) when hiding navi bar. But after reading this thread, I'm not so sure.
I've only had the reboot loop once, here is my setup when it happened....
-had just unplugged from charger after full charge
-Mobile data was off, Wifi was set to sleep....never when plugged in..
-The device kept rebooting, so I powered off, went into recovery, wiped cache. I also turned off Gesture Control app functions (not sure if this was necessary however). This seemed to stop the reboot loop.
Would be nice if we could keep gathering info on the conditions that cause this, and potentially find a solution. It sucks having a dead tablet because of this issue.

My 7.7 does the same thing. I don't use the tab constantly, but I do notice the reboot on a fairly regular basis. Same symptoms as everyone above, except for me it doesn't go into a loop, it just reboots once with the white dot and then comes back fairly quickly, so not really a full reboot. I don't see the Verizon & Samsung splash screens, just the white dot then the login screen.
Mine is not rooted, has the stock ROM, and does not have any UI enhancing apps or mods. It's pretty much stock other than having applications installed, and nothing that really runs in the background because I have Advanced Task Killer kill auto kill every 30 minutes.
Not that big of an issue for me right now, but would definitely like to see it resolved.

gawd! It doesn't happen a lot, but when it does it's friggin annoying. Yes, it's the white dot and doesn't show the full bootup splash, kinda just goes to the desktop again seems ok for a minute and then boom- black screen w/ dot in the middle and it starts over again.
This last bout was pretty bad and it didn't respond to shutting it completely down by holding the power button and letting it boot again, which has sometimes fixed this in the past when it's looping like this.
Can't tell what is causing it, at first i thought maybe a live wallpaper, the 64GB sandisk microsd card, or a faulty sim (sometimes my tablet says SIM not inserted, even if it is). I tried changing all of those but it still happens. I haven't found a pattern of usage or other type of trigger to make it do this though.

I've only ever experienced this when I tried adding in the mms and dialer app from the GSM 7.7. Otherwise my tab has been rock solid.

Freezing! Rebooting?

Hey guys
My edge has frozen 3 times already to the point I have to reboot holding the 3 buttons.
Anyone else have this issue?

My screen went black, had to hold the volume down and power until it rebooted. I've only had this phone for 4 hours.

Nope guys, mine running like a dream and I'm Def a power user. I'd try a couple back to back factory resets.if you still have issues, take it back.

Got the same issue. And factory reseting didn't do anything. I also tried to reset using the 3 buttons but it just says downloading for more than an hour! I really don't want to send it back and go trough the whole hassle. I just want a fix. I got this phone yesterday and I can't enjoy it... it only freezes when on standby for some time. The only way I can get it to work is by using the 3 buttons just like they guy above...

The downloading screen is just a bootloader screen for flashing rom while odin. If you isn't flashing rom, you don't need to wait for it since the phone is doing nothing.

Got a reboot once on PAW FW. Nothing after.

Yep had one yesterday after using bbc iplayer, tried to go back into iplayer from multitasking and it froze then went black . .used the volume and power for 7 secs and everything came back on . .
Hoping this is just software. .
Mine is UK version and got it on the 8th . .
Read that the S6 had similar problems

Anyone have a fix for this or do I need to take it back to Verizon? I'm in the US and have the same issue. It has happened to me multiple times.
I get automatic reboots as well as full screen lockup for 7-10 minutes where it reboots itself. Both seem to occur when I'm trying to do something immediately after doing something else. Examples are when I hit send on a text/tweet and then pull down the task bar while it's in the process of sending the text/tweet or when rotating screen to look at a picture in landscape mode in Facebook and immediately tapping the center of the screen to get rid of the text on the screen.
This has now happened every day I've had the phone (Friday, Saturday, and now Sunday). It's getting quite old. Any help would be appreciated before I take my phone back to Verizon tomorrow.

I haven't had any freezing, but I did have my first random reboot after 4 days of ownership while listening to music with it plugged into an aux cable..

Same.

i experienced the same issue, freezing up, i reset my phone and someone told to me to install an optimizer to help my phone by freezing up

I got the phone for 2 weeks now, yesterday my volume down and power button is unresponsive, press the power button for a few seconds but it wont respond. I have to hold volume and power buttons and press until a few more seconds and ir restarts, after rebooting it works ok.

Anyone have an update to this thread? Has anyone gotten a fix for this? Or should I just send my phone back and get another? Thanks for any help.

Just had another freeze and shutdown . .doesn't reboot but requires me too use power on and volume keys for 7 seconds to restart phone. .really hope its a software problem ..seems to happen on multi tasking

same for Galaxy S6
i have the Galaxy S6 and i have the same probleme, my phone keep freezing and some time rebooting, i try the safe more but still freezing, i delete the new installed app with no luck.
some other wesite say this is an apps crash that make the phone freezing, but i don't know.

Don't worry, Samsung will fix this with an update. Only had 1 reboot and it was on PAW fw.. now that I'm on pb4 it haven't happened once.

I have a verizon S7 edge, and have had multiple reboots on the phone, with no consistent pattern. It has done it while sitting on the bed untouched/unused. It remounts the SD card every time this happens. I'm really stunned there is no word from Samsung about this issue

I have had the same issue. I worked with a Samsung support member who was helpful in attempting to troubleshoot and log the issue. I ran my phone in safe mode for a few hours in hopes that it may have been an app I downloaded causing the freezing issue but unfortunately the phone froze again while in safe mode. According to Samsung, my next step is to go to a Samsung Experience shop in a Best Buy and have them do a software flash. I'm heading there today and if its successful I'll be sure to post about it.

samsung s7 edge freezing
i have a samsung galaxy edge 7 and it just froze on me too the screen froze and non of the buttons worked for the rest either so i popped the sim card n it unfroze.

Hey, this is software problem. Dont take it back phones. Maybe chrome, messenger freeze phone. Just send feedback Samsung. Samsung will fix this with update. Its not phone problem. Easy guys...

Phone freeze sometimes

Hello, sometimes the phone needs 1 to 3 seconds to react when I scroll on the screen. For example, if I click on a widget and want to go to the app drawer then the phone freezes as if it crashed. This also happend sometimes when i surfing the internet with Firefox or when the keyboard is popped up (SwiftKey).
Am i alone with this failure?
The phone is unofficial unlocked but has the original recovery and no root. Latest asus Firmware.
What can i do? I also did an reset of the hole phone but nothing worked.

Random Reboots on Mi9t on MIUI 12

My Mi9t keeps freezing the screen flickers 3 or 4 times and then go to the lock screen. And sometimes after that happens it reboot into recovery mode by itself.
This Is happening couple of times a day
The frequency of this is increasing when using Uber app
That happened after MIUI 12 update

Yeah i guess this only happens while using uber wonder why?
The problem is I use uber 3 to 4 times a day everyday:crying:

I had the same after the latest update, I've did a factory reset and installed Al my apps once more. No problems after I did that.

Had it on 12.0.3.0 global when tapped Revoke USB authorizations developers settings. Phone blinked and went to the boot logo and then screen turned black. But after pressing power button screen lit up for a second on a boot logo but then went black again. Hard reboot solved everything
