Hi.
I don't know what is causing my device to sporadically hard reset while charging: After a while the battery indicator stucks at a lever far below 100% and almost every application won't start any more. I than looked into the build-in explorer and noticed that many of the files that are cooked into rom were missing. But windows was still running and I could even go to preferences etc.
after a soft reset the "first booting" splash screen revealed and all the setting were gone. And the battery indicator shows nearly 100% again.
It does not happen every time I recharge my device. The last hard reset of that kind happened two weeks ago.
Any ideas?
Which ROM are you using??
I had this issue on either Bauners V7 WM6.5 rom and TAELs WM6.5 rom.
I've noticed a connection between charge level below 30% and enabled WLAN. I'm not sure about that. ROM data wasn't corrupted as I could reactivate my device by performing a hard reset (vol-down + ok + reset).
This has happened to me only once and never after that..

I am experiencing random lock ups and freezes. It happens especially when I receive texts and incoming calls after about 30 minutes of no use. WiFi does not work either. It is very annoying and frustrating as I lose the text or miss the call. I have to reset the phone to get it working again. Sometimes it takes several resets.
EDIT: Other random tidbit...after playing with the phone a bit more, I have found that the phone functions perfectly when plugged into the power outlet-WiFi, texting, incoming calls...Maybe it has something to do with the power settings when not plugged in?
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Does anyone have a guess at what might be the problem?
I am running:
SPL 2.47
2.42.50 radio
DCD Custom 3.2.6
I have never had this problem until about a week ago. I am wondering if it is a hardware issue as I have tried re-flashing several times. It will work well for a few hours then act up again. I am thinking about relocking my phone and taking it in for service, but that is a last resort.
Thanks in advance for any help.
same thing happened to me. It started ever since i switch out for a new battery though. I seriously think it's my battery that causes these random freezes.
hmmm...it does seem to be a battery issue as it works while plugged in. Is there any way to reset the battery somehow?
Freezes here too
I've had my phone freeze twice in the last two days. Yesterday at work, connected via activesync, when I disconnected the screen wouldn't come on. Then today I was connected to the wall charger, disconnected and the screen wouldn't come on again. Had to remove the battery both times to get the phone working again.
My experiences
When the 6800 came out I liked it so much that I hooked my entire family up with one and I have seen more problems than a lot of people. I just thought I would share some of the freezing problems I've seen and what I've dont to replace them. And if the device is not freezing when it is plugged into the wall is the screen off like in idle, or is it real dim and still up? And one great thing you can do to reduce daytime freezes is to leave the device off at night when you charge it (if you can stand to do that), or at least soft reset when you grab it to start the day.
1) The most common reason for lock ups that I've seen is memory drain. It is caused from programs you've installed that continually run in the background. The biggest killer is recieving calls when the phone has been sitting at idle too long or trying to run activesync or an internet browser.
Fix: You can try to go back and remove the programs that you've recently installed till you lack this problem, but the ultimate fix is to hard reset.
2) Some registry edits have poor efects on the way the phone performs and this is when it seems everything is good, you are keeping the memory clear with a task manager, yet it still freezes in the middle of doing something.
Fix: Every titan seems to act a little differently than others. The only time I hack the registry is when one of my family members phone is having an issue, or when I get bored and I want to mess around with my own's performance. The remedy for this is installing the stock carrier rom and then moving to a rom of your choice. Read the posts too. Make sure the radio is compatible with the rom. Trust me in this forum you can find anything.
3) Memory boosting software like memaid or oxios close apps are great, however, with some programs they interfeer with each other and cause problems.
Fix: Forget this memory programs. Find a rom with good memory management.
Animez: That is how mine started...now it does it at least 6 times a day.
Sweeny: Thank you for your detailed response. I do not think it is memory drain as I use x-button and maintain my task manager quite frequently. I have not made any registry edits except for the DCD kitchen (3.2.6), arcsoft, and carrier cab I have installed...
Question: Does the registry get wiped on a reflash or do I need to hard reset to wipe the registry? I don't really trust myself all that much fiddling with the registry unless I know what all the strings do.

A hard reset or rom flash will wipe your registry since it's included in the new rom and also stored in the hard reset rom. So if you screw it up, worse case you hard reset, or reflash with a new rom/same rom, doesn't matter.
You can also back up your phone prior to making any changes, and if you screw up, hard reset and then restore the backup.

Hello,
I've been struggling with a problem for about 5months and finally rationalized what happens and now seek a fix. Yes, sometimes the device is slow. It can go about 3days w/o need for reboot, but if I sense it slow, I bounce it cleanly.
My HD2 will freeze, by itself left alone, or after charging, or while in use. A battery pull reset will only get me past this. At first I thought it might have to do with low storage space but it occurs even after clearing space and bouncing.
When the device boots from the pulled battery, it gives the time & date of the last time I had to pull the battery (say 3 days ago). This is consistent on each occurrence. It seems on the battery pull, the device looks to the registry or some other pointer to the date/time rather than the device hardware clock.
Once the unit boots, if I don't notice, it want to attach to my phone provider, and in the logic of the negotiation, the unit freezes as it cannot sync with the phone provider as the date/time is not in line with their connect criteria.
FIX is boot device, do not enable phone radio, set time & date manually, enable radio for phone and a sync can be done to enable phone system time synced.
The question is, What can I do to stop this sloppy phone from going back in time, or crashing on me when I want to make a simple call?
I think a tweak of some sort has to be in place to enable the negotiation with the phone provider as well.
using WM65, the boot screen gives:
R 2.15.50.14
G 15.42.50.11U
D 1.66.76641
&
device program storage now: 180MB free
device storage now: 50MB free
card storage now: 350MB free
I've had this unit a year now, and recently started using the LeoCpuSpeed at 998MHz thinking it might help functionality.
thanks in advance,
_h
still happens, any fix?

SOrry if you already mentioned it, are u using custom or stock ROM?
Sometime, registry tweaks might cause those problems.
I would suggest you to flash the CORRECT STOCK ROM and see if those problems still persist. If yes, there might be defect/damaged to any of the components of your device
My phone displays the icon in the attached picture (when i shut it down).
It does not start-up, only from the recovery mode (with restart option).
The battery life dropped from 3 days to 12hours suddenly (once with this problem)
I notice that this problem appear from the day when i found my phone in the pocket unlocked, and a lot of app's were opened.
A messege "MTP connected" appears sometimes (without connect something)...
I made factory reset and a restore from a time when it was ok, and nothing.
What could be the problem?
Known issue. Clean the USB port and try a factory reset. If it doesn't work change the battery or bring it to a service center.
I tried with a new battery and same problem, i clean the usb port on the phone and nothing.... i mention that are some moments when it's working fine... (in most of times when the battery is on low level).

Looks like it got hot and you have a hardware problem that you can't do anything about except for sending it in for servicing
Problem resolved, it was the electronic board from the bottom of the phone (the one with usb in and mic) and some tranzistors... very few services repairs in detail this phone, lot of services told me that i need to replace all motherboard..
But the important thing is that the phone runs smoothly
SGS2 I9100 with Ressurection Remix ICS_v2.4_AOKP-B39-4.0.4
Device was working fine, battery was low (<5%) so i connected my charger; went to sleep, woke up and tried to turn display on - couldn't ... i thought that maybe phone was battery dead when i connected it so i long-press the power button to start it up but nothing was happening.
Disconnected the charger, took out the battery, waited 20s then put it back, connected charger and tried to power on => sgs2 splash screen .... .... ... showing desktop screen w/o icons and after 5-10s device shows "Shutting down" vibrates and shuts down.
Rebooted into CWM recovery, reinstalled ROM => no change
Rebooted into CWM, wipe data/factory reset => no change
Any ideeas what is going on? is the battery malfunctioning?
Try a new battery in the first instance. If it still happens once you've done that then we can look at other causes. Also, if you feel so inclined, do a clean install of stock & see if that fixes the issue to rule out something in your current setup (rom/kernel/etc) causing the problem.
thanks, been thinking the same about trying another battery but that is something i cannot do today

tried another battery, same.
flashed a stock, os load doesnt pass "S" screen
also i recharged battery on another phone and when i use it in mine, it gets drained quickly
guess the problem is the "power supply"
Hello and good evening.
I'm running a fully stock Poco F1 on the latest 11.06 ROM. Just a week ago I noticed that my phone wasn't going into deep sleep. I noticed it only because one morning my phone was unusually warm and my battery had halved overnight.
Since that day I've noticed my phone battery usage bar showing as always "awake". Even overnight there isn't a single gap in the "awake" bar. Thinking it was probably a bad update or a misbehaving app, I checked for new updates and found none. I also uninstalled all apps. Last resort I did a factory reset.
Today is day two after factory reset and the phone still refuses to deep sleep. Phone is fully stock, unrooted, bootloader locked.
Location is always off.
Sync is always off.
WiFi and Scanning is always off.
Bluetooth is always off.
All settings in apps are manually set to not use data or battery.
What could be causing this?
One more thing, I get random names that show up in battery list. None traceable to an actual app. Just random names that look like system services but I've never seen them before.
I was going through some other posts on this same issue and I've read that dust/damaged charging port can also maintain a wake lock. (It was one of the moderator who made that comment and was also supported by other users who agreed.)
Coincidentally, this whole issue also began the same time my charging port was misbehaving.
I cleaned the port with a toothpick and isopropyl alcohol but this wake lock issue still persists. I will be getting my charging port replaced anyway, but with this Covid situation, no service centers will be open.

I would suggest deleting your internal storage before changing the port.
Some apps leave "stuff" back into the internal storage, so even if you did a factory reset, they might be messing up your setup.
You could save the things you specifically want in one folder and delete everything else (you should factory reset once more afterwards).
It's a long shot, but I would give it a try
How do I delete my internal storage?
I am unrooted and do not plan on root. (Business phone).
The only way I'll be able to fix my port is at the service center. And at that time I can request them to clean flash ROM.

But isn't this the same as factory resetting?
Because the factory reset does format the internal storage and the files you see after first boot are created after ROM initialization. And either way before I factory reset or give the phone to service center, I always manually delete (secure with overwrite) files. Is this the same?
Phone connected to pc via USB in normal mode does not have access to root/system/recovery/boot.
If I'm missing anything or am wrong, I'd really want to know.

I use custom recovery and i was under the impression that, after factory reset with stock recovery, your internal storage (data/media) was kept intact.
If none of your files is available after reset (e.g. your downloads) then you are right. What i'm suggesting is the exact same thing.
