I find that sometimes my streak (318) seems to automatically restart in my pocket.of course I'd like to find out the cause.is there an app which shows me the uptime and a way to read any logs that may have been written just before and after the reboot?
i seem to have the same problem
Do you use SetCPU or any 3rd party apps?
Some people suggested the restarts may be caused by overclocking the CPU
I am using stock 318 rooted, without setCPU or any fixes and i also have a problem with restarts.
It is pretty random - last time happened in the morning just after disconnecting the charger after overnight charging session...
yea im running stock 2.2 318 with no mods at all and it happens more times then i would like, a few times it just shuts down on me in my pocket and stays off
I caught mine restarting once and it just stayed on the dell logo. had to pull battery and restart. 318, no mods
Restarts seem to be a problem with the streak no matter what ROM you have lots have sent there streak back me included and got a new one, this one seems to be OK now
Don't know why it happens for some and not others

Had that happen twice on my rooted 318 streak with no other mods.

Make sure it is not your battery door. It has to be on reel food or there is a switch that will shut it down. I had this problem when i first got mine i would set the phone down and it would reboot. I taped a half a business card on the back of the battery. it helps push the back out a little and ensures the back on switch makes contact.
Never had the problem again.
Battery cover
Yes the battery cover is the culprit... Try to push your battery in different are and you might see your device rebooting..
Its was the battery/battery door for me cuz since going and getting s new one I have not had a singel restart. If any of you guys are still with in your 30 days got return it

Mine has always done it, but since going to the official O2 2.2 upgrade it now gets stuck on the Dell logo when rebooting, so I have to take the cover off and remove the battery to get it to restart properly. Interestingly it never seems to do it when I'm using it - only when I go to pick it up, I find it's either just gone off or stuck on Dell logo. I guess it must be the back so I'll go stick a train ticket behind it and hope it solves it! I've not had problems with the back being loose and can actually take the back off for several seconds before it dies... which makes me wonder if it is just a loose cover....
My 2.2 Froyo with 318 has done this twice now. Took it out of my pocket this morning to find it stuck on the Dell logo and extremely hot. When I'd done the usual battery out fix it showed it had lost about 50% of its charge. Earlier this morning it was giving me a warning about a defective charger when I unplugged it. Installed Battery Solo Widget recently so I'm wondering if that played a part in the problem.
Reboot while on the phone
Mine as well. It freezes while i was on the phone. I had to remove the battery to restart the phone. 5 hours later it rebooted itself. I have an official ROM. I have rooted my phone 3 weeks ago. I wonder if this is the reason....
I try to shake the phone just to see if it is because the battery but nothing. It starts to annoy me.
Do you think I need to send it back?
YD.
Mine got stuck on the logo with 318 and i had to re-qdl tool it to get it back going. Hapened twice. put att 1.6 back on and had problems with restarts and it going back to factory state. im on the 3 replacement now
I have a new theory on this.my EU Streak (318 froyo nonrooted) keeps resetting when in the pocket, out when I carry it in my defender case, under some short or so. It.s also warm here, so I'm starting to suspect that the reset s are temperature related.
Just now, I left home with 96 percent battery. I played some music and it stopped after ca 10 minutes. Dead. Cant revive without battery removal. I was only able to get to that another 6 or do minutes later. And then it showed the battery to be empty, red.
It must gave chewed through 90% in those 6 dead minutes.
Does anyone know of a software to monitor (and log to sd card) the internal temp, etc?

And just now it rebooted itself while sitting quietly on the desk. Well ventilated. sigh
Hello, i'm having problem with my streak5 (just bought used)... It runs froyo 2.2.2.
Some times it shut down and it's not possible to restart. Every time it's necessary to plug the charger for 10-20 seconds.
The same things happen if i remove the battery: In order to restart i have to plug the recharger...
Someone has an idea?
I have a X10 but when I try to turn it on only vibrates and the screen remains black, but when i leave the phone for some hours and then I come back and try to turn it on usually works but only for some minutes because the phone turns off automatically, I have also noticed that most of the time the phone doesnt charge when I plug it to the charger so Is there any solutions? Let me know if there is any doubt about my question Thank you very much.
I had a similar issue with the phone way back when I first got it. I was on SE's 1.6 and the phone was completely dead (not enough battery to fully boot) and it would not charge when plugging it in... Ended up sending it back to Rogers and they sent me a new one. Never had any issues since they upgraded to 2.1 +
Have been a Streak users since Aug 2010. Currently using DSC 1.1 ROM. Device was working fine until my commute home Monday. I swapped charging sources from the Dell-supplied car charger to an aftermarket one(have done it several time to charge my work BB), and I got a "charger invalid" error. The phone shut off and has stayed the way since despite repeated attempts to power it on. Here's what I've tried:
Removing:
SD Card
SIM
Battery
I've left it on USB power and regular AC overnight in various states of "removal".
I've even installed the new sync software on my laptop to see if that would work.
I've been completely unsuccessful so far. Can't even get into fastboot mode.
Do I just have a fancy paperweight now?
Thanks!

have you tried charging using usb port of notebook ? aftermarket or none branded one usually have prone to damage itself...
i use samsung original charger as an alternative charger though.. and it also a high speed charger...
Yes, have left it on USB power. Won't charge or turn on.
i think the charging port of streak must have spoiled... but.. how bout trying with another same type usb cable?

Have you cleared the battery stats from within Streakmod recovery?

Resetting the battery stats would be a good place to check, but I can't even turn the thing on.
Strange.... unless you shorted something out there's no reason for you not to be able to boot into recovery or fastboot

Interesting. Before I start googling, have any of you seen a pinout of that 30-pin connector?
Could that "charger invalid" error really short out the whole thing? #sad
Hello there,
yesterday i got my phone back as it should get repaired (which it wasnt as it was not a warranty case) and so i rooted it and reinstalled cm10. all went fine and everything worked as it should.
installed a few apps and sync was all good. no force close or errors in general. During the night I kept it connected to my notebook (in standby) so it gets charged.
Bad surprise: I woke up and it didn't react at all. Black screen. nothing happens when removing the battery putting it back in and plugging in the usb-cable. no touch lights or whatsoever. no recovery, no download mode. just nothing at all.
i do have a wobbly usb port on my phone but yesterday it charged just fine without any interruption. just data mode wont work perfectly (loses connection and connects again) actually it always charges fine. so i dont think it is because of the usb port.
so what shall i do? i didnt use the phone overnight, it wasnt connected in wifi. just idling and now it isnt responding anymore...
hope that somebody can help
cheers

Does anything happen when you charge it with the normal wall charger?
Any way to try with another battery... just to see if the phone is really bricked or maybe there is no juice left in the battery...
also clean out your USB port with a toothbrush.. I had a similar issue with USB connection.. cleaning it out resolved that...

thank you for your tips.
nothing happens with the normal wall charger. trying another battery will be possible tonight and i will report back.
did the cleaning. didnt change anything with not charging but maybe if the phone will boot with the other battery it might have helped ^^
i read the other bricked thread and that was quite disapointing. still have warranty on it so maybe i'll send it directly to samsung rather than amazon.
thanks anyway for your help.
just might be interesting for cm10 users. I mean I did absolutely nothing with it. or maybe it was nand failure. idk
yesterday at night i left my venue at 43% charge. today morning when i wake up i saw the phone charge is completely gone. may be due to 3g networks was on. but strange thing is after giving 100% charge my venue refuses to boot. niether i can go to recovery mode nor i can go to fastboot mode. in all the case it shows the dell logo with blinking led lights 5 to 6 times. then restarts and this process repeats whole day continously if i didnt remove the battery.
im clueless how this happen. please help me.
I am face the same problem too...have you found any solution for this problem??
no service center of dell is asking me to change the motherboard of the phone at 6500 INR. did u found any solution yet?
