Strange (repeatable) reboot issue

Not sure if it's just me, but every/any time I try to open up the USA Today app, my phone reboots.
I've tried clearing data, clearing cache, uninstalling/reinstalling and the same thing - click the icon, splash screen, droid animation...
Anybody else?

Absolutely love this phone, but was beginning to think I might've gotten a lemon. Guess will just have to wait for the JB update :fingers-crossed:

And the plot thickens lol
I installed the app just to see, and it reboots my phone after the splash screen as well. (on wifi)
No problems here - that "do you want alerts?" notification pops up immediately after the splash screen... maybe a coincidence, but worth mentioning... I guess.

doesnt happen to me either. I said "no" to alerts -- if it's rebooting, did you say "yes" to alerts?
Never even got to that point.

Is this freshly downloaded or being restored from a previous account? I wonder if you have the right one for ICS. Mine is v. 1.9.

Fresh installed. Even tried uninstalling and reinstalling from the Play Store.
Wonder what the difference is!?

I'm wondering if it's some conflict between two apps.
Update: took a quick look at the reviews and see one person reporting it -- are you dmitry?

I've got the same problem here. Weirdly, it also occurs when I try and use the AP Mobile app. Happens if I'm on wifi or mobile data.
Maybe part of Moto's plan to deny us access to quality news apps?
I came to the boards to see if this random rebooting was just my problem but seems like it is not. My phone has been rebooting for the last 3 nights in a row around the same time, 10pm eastern time. No clue what is causing it.
Also tried the USA Today app and yes it does reboot the phone.
Very strange...
Another issue I have is....my phone screen kinda flickers and starts getting brighter from dimmed screen.
Anyone else gets this?
UPDATE: I just saw this in the general section - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1919581
and I also installed Nova Launcher recently and I feel like that might be the culprit...This is really really strange.

Update to 4.1.2 waiting to download

Hi Guys,
I have a question about the update to version 4.1.2.
When I go to Settings > About > System update, I see that the update to 4.1.2 is found but it says that it is waiting to download but it stays like that forever and nothing happens.
Has anyone else seen such behavior? Do you know why it is happening and if it is normal?
Thanks!
Maybe a stupid question but... are you connected to WiFi when you see the message?

I also forgot to mention that I am fully stock, unrooted and locked.

Make sure you have a good WiFi connection. The WiFi in my dorm shows a good connection (String signal) but the internet can sometimes timeout easily. Make sure your connection to the internet is superb.

My connection is very good. For just in case, I put the Nexus besides the wifi router and still nothing happens.

Yes, I know what the arrows mean but my question is why this is happening? Is there a way for me to force the download? Or maybe I just have to wait more (it's been like this since yesterday)?
Try powering off the Nexus and then starting it up again. If that doesn't work, try using the technique to trick it into updating mentioned in this thread (yes, it's for a different situation but still worth a shot)

Hey, thanks for the suggestions. I tried powering off and on and it didn't work.
Then I tried the method to force stop the Google Services Framework and when I went to the System updates screen, I had the option to check for updates. I checked and I am back to where I was before - the update shows but is only "waiting to download"

Well, I bought the N7 recently and I want to see how it feels without rooting and custom roms. But later on, I will most probably unlock it.
Hi everyone. I have the same problem with the download. Mine N7 is also stock. Tried the method with the framework multiple times, tried to restart, tried another internet, still no luck in downloading. Any further suggestions?

Same issue here! I see the update, but it's waiting to download forever. Could this be connected to the location? Same as the the other guy I'm located in Sofia, Bulgaria.

Yeah, I'm starting to think the same, as I am in Sofia too.
Anyway, I could not find a solution, so I rooted and installed CM10, so no issue for me anymore.
Another one from Sofia. Waiting to download and after some time... unable to download.....

[Q]Wifi password not saving after reboot...

I'm having a unique problem that I have yet to encounter before. Everytime I reboot I lose my password for wifi at home and I have to re-enter it. Very annoying. Anyone know what I could possibly do to fix this problem?
Running stock Bell rom. Rooted.
Thanks

I have the exact same problem! I'm also running Bell stock and rooted my phone.
I did use TiBu to restore my wifi passwords. Have you done the same thing?

I didn't use TiBu for wifi passwords. I believe it is the Rom. I am gonna reinstall it and see if it persists.
Same problem here! Really frustrating. Mine's Bell too. Wonder if this is D803 issue.

same. bell but unlocked. Tried restoring to factory and also update recovery firmware. No luck.
I'm on Verizon and have another thread started on similar issues that started today. Mine remembers my password but will not get on the internet with either my 5Ghz or 2.4. I have to use my guest account on the same router for it to work.
I'm having the same issues on my Bell stock D803. Getting really frustrating now.

That's what I do use. I've tried my home, work and iphone hotspot. All connect the first time, but reboot the phone and it looses all the settings.
I emailed LG Canada support and they replied back with:
- Turn the phone off.
- Press home + volume down + power and hold until you see the LG logo appear, release the keys.

And if that doesn't work, take it back to your carrier to have it sent into their repair center.

OK, I have the verizon(US version) and I have no problem
Yeah, I think it's a problem with the Bell Canada version of the phone. Must be something in the ROM. Hopefully it gets updated soon to fix the issue.

Try opening up your build.prop file and editing the following: wifi.lge.patch. Set it to false. This worked on my Bell D803.
Needless to say, you need to be rooted to do this.

Internet unresponsive

Hello all. So I use my Nexus 4 as an internet device. I've been doing this for about a month, but today, my N4 is unresponsive on the internet. My WiFi is working, I can connect with my N5, N7 and my PC. Certain websites will eventually load, but not all. And some that load will display a blank screen with the website address in the address bar. I have rebooted several times. I toggled WiFi on/off. But it still will not load. Will this require a manufacturer reset? Thanks for any advice.

Google play is also unresponsive. The loading circle just spins. Earlier there was an app trying to update, got to 90% then stopped. It eventually did update though.

Im using my Nexus 5 as my main squeeze right now. The Nexus 4 is just another internet device when my N7 drops low on battery.
I want to confirm if there is something wrong with your radio signal. Maybe it isnt just your wifi.

this thread, well almost identical to it, i must have read 50+ times over the last 6 years, lol. and the answer is almost always the router itself, where a simple reboot of the router fixes the problem

RCS worked now cannot activate it

Hey anybody able to get RCS working then it stop being an option. I'm on pie and I had RCS working just fine. Since then Activity Launcher has been updated twice and now when I try to apply setting there it doesn't do anything...any suggestions?
I got it working on my phone (OP6T A10 OB) and its working fine on me still, but i have never gotten it to work on any other phone. not OP7 or any samsung ive tried after my phone. I think that trick is not working anymore.

Swap Sim to other tray. I had same issue in Sim slot 1. I tried everything I could thing of change Sim to Sim slot 2 and BINGO winner winner chicken dinner.
Yep it was temporary for me too working again.
I think overall since they're just starting to roll it out for American carriers that it's being finicky and will be smoothed out overtime
