Have a new rooted Atrix and just experienced a random reboot while making a call. Anyone else had this happen yet?
nope have had mine since yesterday at 2:00 pm no issue with reboots
none here!
I was driving yesterday and put the phone down, screen on in the browser or something. Looked down a few minutes later and it was at the AT&T splash screen like it was rebooted. I am rooted but nothing really special was installed at the time.
Ya, I've been getting these as well. It happens most often when I'm charging my phone. I've heard people saying other cords don't work as well but I was using the charger that came with the phone, just plugged into my computer.
Me too
twice in the last three days. Also, my N1 charger freaks this phone out.
I have a stock phone and this happens to me frequently, while my wife has also a stock phone and it hasn't happened to her once. I'm going to exchange the unit tomorrow.
Happened to me once. If it happens again I think im gonna exchange mine.

It's happened to me a few more times, both when I'm charging and when I'm not, but it definitely happens more often when charging.
2 reboots due to the wifi preference crashing and one random music player app crash
It's very strange. This was happening when I first got the phone. Seems to happen more when it was below 50% battery and being charged via my laptops USB. I wonder if this is the rumored power issues the phone was having that was mentioned on Engadget before its release.
After a factory reset though, I have not had the problem again.

I had a problem where the phone was doing random reboots a few times a day which was very annoying.
I swapped the phone today at the AT&T store as they got a new batch and so far so good.
Rooted with all my apps installed - so far - no reboots.
Keeping my fingers crossed.
I got another reboot today while using Google Maps. So thats 1 random reboot a day for two days.
No problems here.

Funny, I had a random reboot today. Is this what we get as early adoptors of a dual core phone ?
UPDATE my phone shut off by itself over night.gonna get a new or switch to verizon. This is ridiculous

Mine rebooted again twice today while connected to the car dock using google nav. Gonna head back to the ATT store and get a new one tommorow morning.
Update: left my phone off the charger last night for the first time at around 80% and woke up to a dead phone. This and the reboots mean im going to exchange it as soon as the att store opens. Hopefully i'll get a normal one this time.

Returned my phone that was rebooting nonstop. The new one is working much better.
My phone has a 90% chance of reboot whenever I am connected via bluetooth and streaming audio. It is driving me crazy.
Anyone else getting the demigod hardware reset screen?
Got it once shrugged it off.. Second times got me a bit worried...

Could you elaborate more about what this screen is?
If you had it you would know what I'm talking about for sure.
If you were just asking in general. It all appears to be a screen that gives you an option to go into download mode after your phones hardware resets. Phone boots into it.
I got a black Demigod screen on my old phone Friday. It was the proverbial straw on a phone that was rebooting itself daily - I exchanged it on the weekend.
The black screen was, I believe, for a kernel panic. I got the same 3 options: Download mode, reboot to normal and something else...
Does your phone get poor battery life. Does it make noise when you squeeze it? I wonder if all these issues are related. You should have your phone replaced. My phone does not give me any of the problems people are talking about
the best phone ever
Yep, I got the yellow screen this morning. I was like WTF is this? Rebooted and all is fine now. We'll see how long it lasts. Any idea what causes this?

Was told in irc that its a mode the phone goes into that allows jtag over usb. If it does it again im just taking this one back too. Everything seems normal after a reboot for me too, something is changing when it happens though because my hosts file reset both times.
Both times it happened i was on sk8s kernel. But i havent seen anyone else on it say anything about it and i was on sk8s on my old phone too and it didnt do it.

All I've done is root, unlock and removed bloat. No other mods on my end so it can't be due to sk8s kernel.

This message only happened to me when I plug into my car charger. Before I rooted it used to say slow charge. Now I get this message. I think the base ROM took something out...

That's when I got it too. I'm on stock so I'm not thinking it's the base ROM. Maybe it's something to do with the charger each of us used for the first time...

funny you guys say that.. first phone didnt get the screen was never pluged into car charger. second phone was pluged into car charger.

They definitely know more. No doubt about it. At least we know one thing. I got it on stock while others got it on a ROM. So I'd assume that it's a hardware issue or an issue that's buried in the software. See, I just covered all the bases. Lol

one of the devs had it happen to his rooted freegeed stock too. he was the main one telling me it is software.
I just plugged my phone in and took the dog out. Came back and my phone was in fastboot mode for some reason. LOL

I'm on the Sprint LGOG and I just had it happen too.
Stock ROM, rooted, and unlocked. Never happened until today, which was the first time I did a restore with TWRP - I debloated too much.
Rebooted and seems fine now.

Is all fine and dandy until you miss an alarm.
I just got the Demigod screen too.
All I've done to my phone is root it and unlock it with FreeGee.
EDIT: I had noticed that the phone was acting somewhat strangely the past couple days (slow response, screen not turning on when I press the power button, multitasking screen not appearing/not responsive). Now it seems alright even though I had rebooted the phone prior to the Demigod screen to try and resolve these issues.
I plugged my phone in the car charger earlier and noted I had 49% battery left. I drove an hour and when I took the phone off the charger it was turned off. I'm not rooted or anything. This is my first Android phone. Would Android be considered less stable than ios?(which is what I've used for years)

That same problems happens to me when i unplug it or even just wake it up from sleep. It doesnt do it too often like it did when i first got it but im sure it will be fixed with a software update. All you gotta do is restart the phone hold down the power and down button ( on the volume rocker)
Just happened again. Plugged in car charger and it powered down. WTF is this?

I used to have a samsung captivate that did the same thing, generally it is a thing you just have to deal with! It sucks, I know but sorry!

I turned it back on, kept driving, and then it turned off again. This is ridiculous. It never did this before.

I think the problem may be with the app HD Widgets. I installed it last night and the problem started today. According to one review I read, it was causing some guy to have random reboots. The developer responded that it is a bug in Android OS, BUT they released a fix in today's update anyway. Hopefully it is fixed now.

I've had it happen twice to me. I got the feeling it was a software conflict type issue.

I think it is hd widget too. I had that on my nexus 7 and it randomly shut off. I deleted it and it hasn't happened again.

I won't pretend to know what the actual problem is but I'm assuming it's software related, but this thing does strange things when connected to a car charger.
Same thing happened to me twice while it was sitting in my pocket.
Pulled it out and it was off. It would not turn back on unless I held the down volume button and power button. My phone is completely stock and I do not have HD widgets.
Twice for me. I'm rooted and unlocked.

I'm on The Base .7.1 and i've had my phone reboot on it's own a few times (on .5 and .7 it did this as well). it doesn't seem to matter what I'm doing...i can be taking a phone call or answering a text, it can be sitting in my pocket or playing chess.
the only thing that is constant is that AFTER the reboot, some application or other has updated itself via Google Play. perhaps there is some conflict occurring when application updates are presented to the Google Play app? could just be coincidence, but it has self-rebooted many times now and every time it comes back up there is a newly applied update to some installed application.
Had a Samsung Captivate that did that, called "sleep death" and was frequent. ATT swapped it out saying there was a bad batch and it never happened again.
My LGOG did it once the other night; well it did a full reboot by itself. If it becomes an issue I'll take it up w/ ATT again.
Had it happen twice in the past 2 days just in my pocket. Starting to get a bit frustrated with this phone.
Had this happen to me at least twice. Funny thing is the phone died in the same general geographic area each time.
Both times I had over 65 or 75% battery left and I was driving a few hundred miles across areas with bad cell reception. on the way back from my trip I actually chanced to look at the phone because I half expected it to be off due to having experienced the unintended power down before. Phone was NOT plugged into a charger. In the past, driving through these areas would put certain phones into power saving mode where cell function shuts down or phone. I think it's related to driving without reception or just no reception.
Normally I can leave this phone sitting and it stays on and wakes up without a fight.
Called AT&T, they are trying to run me through the whole hard reset/phone swap process.
Wanting something a bit stronger, I got LG's number. They said I was the first person to report the issue.
Both companies suggested turning the device off and charging to 100%, although they were both general suggestions (still, I hadn't tried that). The LG tech actually suggested that I take the battery out and... Well I didn't let that go any further.
LG said I could send my device to them instead of AT&T, if I wanted. They don't presend phones so you'll be SOL for "5-7 days" but I feel better that they would actually look at it instead of just throwing it in a "refurb" pile when the screen turns on.
Anyway, call them! Press 1 for English, 1 for Mobiles, I got an answer in 3 seconds. At least help put this on their radar. 800-793-8896.
of those of us who are experiencing random reboots...
are you rooted/unlocked?
are you on the Stock ROM or on The Base?
if The Base, which version? .5 or .73
i am rooted/unlocked running .73

Stock.
My issue has been happening for awhile but its gotten a lot worse lately.
My screen, when on, will randomly start "touching" places. When this happens, it appears as if a phantom finger is pressing various things and it is causing a lot of issues. Also when this happens, the 4 buttons on the bottom stop responding. i have to use the power switch to turn the screen off and then back on again.
any thoughts on how I might be able to fix this?

Are you rooted/flashed a rom? If you are you should definitely wipe everything a few times and flash a new rom. If you aren't I would perform a factory reset.

It has happened across multiple roms. I will try again though.
If nothing else works, try SGS Screen Booster. My Rez has been having the same problem recently, and it's seemed to help quite a bit.
The right below the status bar, there seems to be a gap with what is and what isn't working properly, so I set everything to the max and lowered the response time to be as quick as possible.

Happens to me also. Do you have a screen protector maybe? That is what I always thought my problem was.
Certain chargers or USB cords with grounding issues can cause these problems. Does it only happen when it's plugged in?
I had one were it would cause the same issue when plugged into the laptop, but only while the laptop was plugged into the wall.

The title of this thread would have me more excited if "rezound" was a young hot female.
sorry for the absence.

no screen protector or case on the phone either.
I have done a full wipe multiple times now and different roms as well.

Eh, mine does this as well. It's been happening more often in the colder weather I get into. So I just turn off the screen and let it sit in my pocket for a minute so the screen can warm up, and then it works. I swear, these Asurion replacements suck.
I'm having the same issues with my Rezound. I also have a lot of issues with the soft keys not working now ( Far more often than the random screen touch issue ). They won't respond at all or they will start randomly start clicking. I also notice that when they stop responding usually I can put the phone to sleep, then wake it back up right away and they will start working about 10-15 seconds later. Even when they are working I often have to hit them multiple times before it takes. This happened with the stock rom. It started happening shortly after I received the most recent OTA update, however I assume that is simply a coincidence and nothing to do with the update. I flashed the phone recently with CM10 hoping it was an issue with the ROM itself but the problem persists. This is a shame too because other than the screen issue it seems that CM10 would have given the phone a new life as it looks and runs so smooth on the hardware. I highly doubt I will ever buy an HTC again, we have had two of them and they both start having hardware issues much faster than they should for what they cost.
Im using the unofficial cm10.1 build with no mods. i went through and wiped everything twice. cache, system, boot, battery settings, rotation settings. i flashed the latest at the time (build from 4/3/13) and now my phone is working properly again. no more hanging up on people caue it preses by itself, no more emergency dialing.
hope that helps anyone who might have the same issue.

It started happening a couple days ago, but I haven't installed anything new, but maybe a few apps may have autoupdated. Anyways last time it happened was about a minute ago so I figured I should probably try and figure out what's going on. I sat down and launched a game. As it was loading my phone shut off. I turned it back on and put a song on and loaded same game again. I started to play and then it shut off again. Earlier today I was listening to music and was started a different game and it shut off. I turned it back on and relaunched the same game while listening to music and it was fine for hours. Any idea what it could be? My battery is also well over 60% so it's not anything to do with low battery.
Thanks.
i recently have this problem, some say that was stock battery problem or the phone is bad reading the battery status and shutdow, i am from Nicaragua and here is hard to find a stock OEM battery so, i try do a fix permission in recovery and the problem was solved , but most users solved the problem by changing its battery
good luck
This problem has come back again and has been increasingly getting annoying. It will now shut off multiple times a day randomly. For example I'll check the time on my phone and it will shut off. I turn it back on and as soon as I unlock the screen it shuts off. After it does this a few times it will work. I would then open facebook or something and be scrolling down and it will just shut off again. I'm running default ics rooted and unlocked. Never had issues before and nothing has really been added. I've disabled a couple things such as advanced task killer and single cpu thing with the hopes that it would help, but it hasn't.
Any idea?
Thanks.
Bump. Anyone?
Welcome to the amaze. Mine started doing it again. Changing to non OEM battery helped for a while but it's back. I'll never touch a ****ing HTC phone again until the day I die and I've only ever used HTC.

Yeah I'm thinking the same. It is so annoying trying to send texts when it would shut down for no damn reason. I am hoping it's an app that is causing the phone to crash, but I haven't installed any recently. I got a new battery a couple months back but I wasn't having the problem then. This battery should be a few months old so I don't expect it to be the problem.
Love HTC. (even though I'm considering am s4 simply for a change of flavor) but HTC cannot make a good battery. They underestimate by a lot.
