I am on stock 16GB sd card class2 and HD2 stock battteryI tried 2GB class 2 and 8Gb class 6. I am on Radio 2.10 and even upgraded to 2.12.Lot of SODS and phone restarts automatically.
After SOD windows won't load up and hangs at Stick together logo and will never go forward. Need to take off the battery and need to wait for couple of minutes and after wards it loads.
After getting into Android, gets again SOD and will reboot and when I get back into android, will try to check email or make call and then again phone restarts itself.
Any ideas.
I am on Darkstone latest release froyo2.2 with today's update i.e 18th August and tried all kinds of ROMS.
Any help is appreciated.
do you hspl3 your hd2
Yes it says 2.08SPL when I enter in tri-color mode.
Any help on this?
this has happened to me as well, using mattc 1.5b with Cloudy 1.6 winmo ROM
Radio 2.10.50.26. I am unable to provide the cause of this, just seems to be
random.
Could be corrupt files on you sd card. A bit time consuming, but doesn't hurt..
- Copy your sd card onto your pc.
- Format sd card (fat32)
- Copy everything back
I read somewhere that this problem can be caused with mounting your sd card from your phone via usb. I know I had a lot of problems with Android seeing the new files I copied over so I stopped doing it (connecting via usb).

Friend,
I did copying N number of times, formatting SD card..
Do you want to me to try still?
Any other suggestions?
Just dittoing. Having the same problem with chuckyrom + mattc 1.5. Seems to happen when i'm not using the phone for a while.
Can I load the stock firmware , and install HSP3 and start running android?
Do I need to have a different ROM to run this? All I understood was earlier there was a sound issue but not now..Can I do the above step?
same
yea i get this very random, I'm not to sure if its bluetooth related for me, anyone's guess i think at the moment

I had this same self-reboot issues, regardless of android build, even after deleting and re-creating the android folder in the sd card.
Following is how I managed to solve it:
Take out sd card and use card reader, mount it on a winxp machine.
Copy ALL files to a backup folder in pc. Use 'xcopy /e /c *.* c:\sdbak\.' for example, as normal copy/paste wouldn't work if it found errors due to corrupted files.
Use sd formatter. Refer to this thread. Do a Full format; a class 2, 8GB will take around 10 minutes to complete.
Copy back each backup folder into the formatted sd card, one by one. Recreate and copy your favorite android build onto the sd card.
Reinsert sd card, boot up and start android from fresh.
Let us know if this works for you.
i did do full format in xp before and have random reboot problems. Maybe something happened since then, ill try this tool.
Did it and no dice, still reboots. Im gonna try another suggestion about uninstalling setcpu.
setcpu
this restart happens to me everytime i use setcpu im on shubcraft 1.4b with the r4 overclocked zimage labeled NewKernels_LatestGIT_r4_BTalternative it just started happening with this zimage. are you using setcpu try uninstalling it it worked for me! i never had this prob with the original zimage! hope this helps!

It doesn't work. It still reboots inspite of doing all the above steps.
I have the same issue with crashing back to windows mobile when inactive, this is only recent for me, previously Android was solid as a rock. Guess I will try a build without adding apps or settings and see if it crashes, then add apps one at a time.
Does anyone know of a way of catching the error/crash reason?

Just a note, shub and darkstone's builds gave me random reboots. Ive moved to mattc's nexus based build and it has been super solid.
I have installed mattc 1.7 and zimage r11 with all .ko files and no longer experience reboots in android, I use task manager and setcpu also, its worth trying a this if you have probs

Hi,
I am a n00b in regards to P500, but I used to have an LG GT540 which pretty much similar.
Anyway, I got my P500 yesterday and installed the V10B ROM with arabic support through KDZ. All went fine. I rooted with Z4Root and also all went fine. The probelm now is that the phone restarts every few hours without doing any thing. I mean sometimes when its in my pocket, others wen it is just laying there on the table.
Is that a hardware issue or a ROM issue?
Any help appreciated.
Jst rewipe and reflash and chk again
Got that fixed by changing the SD card. I had a class 4 8GB Kingston that seemed to cause this by the "SD card unexpectedly removed" error and causing the phone to freze and restart.
I changed it to a class 10 card and the problem stopped. 12 hours now without the restart or the "sd card unexpectedly removed" issue. I will test more and report here.
Class 4 sd cards unmount when the phone tries to write something to the card. There is no problem with reading data from the cards. I have the same problem but I can't buy a new card now and as long as I don't write anything to the card the phone will not restart. Thank goodness I dont have a 3g connection.
i use Samsung galaxy s2 with the latest firmware version from Samsung kies (ginger bread 2.3.5) , the problem occurred after installing external SD card and move bunch of apps to it,i tried removing the external sd card from my device, the device stoped rebooting, when i insert it again the device keeps rebooting over and over, the problem is obviosley is moving apps to SD card, i tried to delete the content of the file (andro secure) in SD crad this file includes the moved applications from phone memory to external sd, the problem also stoped
i wasn't having this issue in 2.3.3 therefore
its one of the three:
1- android 2.3.5 do not accept lots of apps in external sd
or 2- there is a problem in a specific app in external sd which make the phone rebooting over and over but i don't know which app is causing the issue because i have lots of apps installed !
or- a problem in the newest firmware 2.3.5 as i heard many ppl having troubles with it
to fix the problem i did factory reset and the rebooting stopped but im scared now to move apps to sd card that the rebooting problem occur again as it happend to me twice after doning factory reset and move them.
i need your help guys, it's annoying to not be able to move apps to sd so the problem don't occur

I will be honestly: I didn't read all BUT
1) U have rebootings after putting files on external sd.
2) after factory reset problem was passed
3) copying again - reboot again
-> right?
1) U thought about wrong (damaged) files you copy?
2) Or maybe files which normally used from an app and this app now isn't able to use it because u moved?
Thing about and check this, I'm sure one of it would be the fold.

it's not copying actully, it's downloading the apps from market and move them from internal storage to external sd therefore i don't think it's a damage files case because they are a market apps however i move only compatible apps which doesn't have (lower right icon) in app2sd, install latest version of app2sd to know what (lower right icon) mean
I'm having the exact same problem! It just randomly started last night, I was playing the game "Blood and Glory" exited the game and around 2 minutes later after checking Facebook it started doing the boot loop.
I'm running the Sprint Epic Touch 4g with Android 2.3.6
I recently put in a 32g SD card a little over a week ago cause it seems the 16g internal is partitioned to only around 2gigs for apps and I have around 130 apps.
I use App2SD pro to move all my apps.
I'm having the same problem, I bought SanDisk SD Card 16GB. when I install it and moved all supported Apps to the SD Card the problem occurred and my SGS2 keeps rebooting over & over during the whole day.
One of my friends made a factory restore & installed the previous OS 2.3.4 and the problem disappeared!!
The thing is what if don't want to root my device and install 2.3.4 what we should do.... shall we keep the SD card only for Camera Pictures & Movies???
any suggestions???
Hey guys,
I am using SGS2 as well. My phone keeps rebooting like more than 2 times a day. randomly. I convince myself not to blame gingerbread2.3.5, thus i tried uninstall my apps in batch (5-10apps each round) and see which batch of my apps cause the prob, if they are not those who cause rebooting issue, i install them back (in phone space not SD card) but so far i still couldn't found and just few mins ago it rebooted again. it happens after the upgrade from 2.3.4 to 2.3.5, after i downloaded a few apps and updated a few apps. I will finish with the un-installation and re-installation.

saw this thread. people were talking about the Dolphin HD which caused the reboot issue, did you have Dolphin browser app installed?
I am having the same issue, too
It started on my S2 after the latest firmware update. I can unmount the SD card and the phone boots OK. I read somewhere that my SD card may have issues, so I purchased another and moved all of my files. The problem reoccurs with the new SD card. I do not have Dolphin browser installed.
I had this issue. I reformatted my sd card and then moved some apps and data back. One week reboot free. 32gb sandisk

In my SGS2 it reboots sometimes in the market, i dont know what to do...
test your sd card for errors...!? thats where i'd start
same problem ... do not restart I had to remove the microSD .. : (.... How do we fix??
SG2 rebooting all the time also
My Sg2 is rebooting every 20 minutes or so.
Is formatting the the SD card a fix?
Mine used to reboot 3 to 5 times a day. Did a factory reset and formatted the internal SD card and set everything backup without Dolphin browser and it's been good for about a week now, no more reboots.
Whether that was because of the rumor that Dolphin browser caused it or from the reformat of the sd card I don't know. But I'm happy none the less.
Got the same problem. It started 2 days ago, and the only fix I've found was to remove apps from my SD card.
From what I've tested :
- Formatting the SD card and copying back all the files doesn't help.
- Removing the SD card or having an empty one works.
- Uninstalling the Dolphin browser didn't help.
- Doubt it's a specific app causing the issue (nothing weird on my S2)
- Removing X number of apps on the SD card seems to work. Now I'm not sure if I had to clear a specific number of apps or a number of MBs, but it works (for now).
Hopefully we'll see a fix soon.

Yours sounds like a problem with an app...
Everyone else should test their sd cards for errors or try fixing bad sectors...
Used to happen on my previous phones with crap sd cards... Once I bought a decent good quality one its never happened
about a month and a half ago I removed dolphin and my reboots stopped. They started up again and my card became corrupted. Decided to go no-card for a while. Was fine for a month. Decided to go for a good deal on a sandisk 16 and 2 days later after moving a bunch of apps on the reboots are back.
Points to a card issue. I've been though 3 cards on this phone now and am about to reset it to factory and bring it in for diagnostics.
Driving me nuts.

I got the same issue (2.3.5) and my SD Card is calss 4, the only way to avoid restart prob. Is to root and downgrade to 2.3.4
Waiting for any other feedback.
Any update Guys,,,,???
This problem is still occur in ICS leaks..
Without knowing this thread I have created similar thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21457609
Still, my thread is to gather data about how many user can reproduce this issue.
This issue is side effect starting from Samsung update 2.3.5..
The only way to avoid this issue is by downgrading to 2.3.4 or lower version.
I think I found a problem not in this forum yet!
A few weeks ago, I rooted, installed CWM and CM7, and started enjoying my nook. After about a week of that, it started to crash and shut off randomly (at least randomly as far as I can tell). I went into CWM and tried to install the rom again and start from scratch: factory reset, install rom from sd. The install went quickly and wasn't at all verbose, it just said "Installing" and then "Install Complete" a few seconds later. When I rebooted, nothing had changed. And every subsequent attempt at changing the rom yielded no changes. If I uninstalled or installed any apps or changed any settings, when I rebooted it went right back to the way it was.
What I'd like to try is Adam Outler's Ubuntu Recovery, but I can't manage to boot from the sd card. I've spent the past couple weeks searching the forums in my spare time for a solution, but can't find one that works. I can adb into the nook though, so I've been trying to figure out how to use that.
So, first question: any ideas on what I might have done that would stop it from booting from the sd?
Next: if that doesn't work, can I fix this with adb somehow? (I tried CelticWebSolutions' parted fix, but no booting from sd card makes it tough)
Any chance someone else has a similar tough-to-describe problem?
+1 for the thread title.
Many people aren't able to boot from SD card UNLESS their NT is plugged in to the charger. Give that a shot.
As for the shutting off problem, I'm not sure. I get random reboots every once in a while. I just feel like it's expected in an alpha ROM.
Just be sure that when you flash a new ROM, you always:
-clear Dalvik cache
-install zip from SD
-factory reset
-reboot system
After I realized that the nook kept booting to the same state no matter how I tried to kill it I couldn't avoid the reference.
The problem with my random reboots is that I have maybe 2 minutes from when it boots to when it inevitably shuts off.
And yeah, I booted it by shutting it off and plugging it in, as well as just plain turning it on and also turning it on while holding the n.
Thanks for the reply.
Oh, and yeah, I cleared the Davlik as well the second reinstall attempt, I didn't give it enough thought the first time.
Today i had a weird issue as well with CM7, i was on MIUI and flashed back to CM7 to continue with a project and i ended up flashing 3 times but could not pass the Team B+ screenshoot to the bootanimation, it got stuck into dark screen. So by accident i formatted my sdcard and that solved the problem. So next time try formatting your sdcard first for those kind of "weird" issues.

What is it you did to format your sd card? If it works, maybe that's the Rita to my nook Phil.

Yes i formatted while in clockworkmod but after that i formatted again with SDFormatter as i always format my sdcards with that program on Windows.

So you formatted the external sd card, not the internal partition that the nook calls an sd card?

yes external sdcard and the nook does not call it sd card only, there is internal sdcard and external sdcard:
Internal sdcard >> /mnt/media

Gotcha, thanks. I don't think formatting the sdcard would be too helpful to me, my problems are definitely internal
hello, another newbie here. i have been running cm7 on a 32gb sandisk sd on my 16 nook tablet. . when i start it up it reboot every 1 min and 45 seconds latter.
i got it to quit once and i just never restarted, that worked fine till i lost my soft keys and had to restart. now i cant get it to stop rebooting.
any help other than completely starting over. also is there any connection between this problem and the amount of apps i have on the sd card?
i have alot, over 200 and i dont want to have to reinstall them all again, or should i take some, or alot of them off ?
thanks alot for reading and any help would be appreciated.
If you can, you can back up your apps and data to an SD card using a free app called Titanium backup. As for your rebooting problem, I'm not sure. I honestly don't think it's because of the quantity of apps you have installed. Maybe your SD card is being unmounted for some reaosn.
I had experiences with a PNY Class 10 card that would reboot into stock ROM then gett stuck at the CM7 splash screen after trying to turn back on from completely off state. It could be the SD card, I'm not sure.
can Titanium backup be run on a computer not the tablet, cause at 1min 45 seconds between restarts i dont have enough time.

No Titanium Backup is an app run within Android. So is your NT rebooting after exactly 1 minute 45 seconds every time?

ok, i got it to stop rebooting, but... What i did was as soon as it started up i went to setting/storage/unmount sd( the one it uses for sd storage).
i unmounted this and it quit rebooting, but then i was unable to access any of my apps, cause that was were they were stored. so i figured that it was stable and i remounted the sd card and.... it went into the reboot loop again. so after several tries i got the sd card unmounted again, but now what ??? any suggestions ??????????????????????????
Do you have an external card reader hooked up to your pc ?
Backup the TiB folder, remake the card. CM7 is now in beta ( have fixes ).
.
Ah, Succulent's cm7 ( also beta ) works to an external card. ( I have not tested this personally, but others report success ! )

If your user data partition is causing the bootloops, I'm not sure. You might be forced to make the ROM again.
