Hi, months ago I upgraded my stock x10a to 2.1 by flashing it and my country delayed the release of 2.1 I noticed since doing this occasionally while playing apps like slice it, sometimes angry birds and always with google goggles my phone crashes out and reboots and it has been getting more frequent.
I upgraded to 2.3 hoping this might help the issue but it still seems to be occuring. I've tried taking diff apps off incase there was a corruption or something but nothing seems to help. I don't think it's overheating as it'll start up again after it crashes and work fine provided i dont restart the app. I'm not sure what else to try...should I reflash it? or could this make it worse?
Can anyone help me out here? any ideas?

You could try flashing another stock firmware, or maybe a modded one, see if it helps.
Hi, I've just reflashed it with the generic 2.3.3 and it still seems to be crashing out and restarting every so often. I haven't been able to find any other stock 2.3.3 flashes out there, so I guess I could try a modded one but I guess if the generic x10a one isn't working it could be a hardware issue?

I'm using android 2.1. The device suddenly Turn Off, the only way to turn it on is by remove the battery.
After that i upgraded it to android 2.2 using KIES, the same problem still happen.
Need help, Please.
can 't understand your problem please mention more details(it turned off when you are running a specific app. or doing a specific action and when it turns off you mean that never turns on again unless you remove the battery ) and i 'd like to know if your phone is a middle east version because i 'm from Egypt and my phone version like you i5503 and it has no firmware except the 2.1 version and its sucks

I5500 here...
While I did not had this issue with stock 2.1.1 ROM, I had it with 2.2 (tested with NEE, XEU & PHB). After putting the battery back in and restarting the phone, my icons and widgets just disappeared from all of my virtual desktops on device. After trying to browse all my installed apps I go the loading beach ball of death. I've waited for half an hour and finally fixed the issue with a factory reset. No it was not the redraw lag... icons just disappeared and refused to appear again no matter how much I waited for them The same thing also happened after my phone self-restared itself without any intervention from my side
It looks like it could be a better idea to stick with the MAD Team releases of FroYo which have some issues fixed. As for me - I switched back to 2.1.1 even it is somewhat limited by features comparing to FroYo. It was maybe some incompatible app that messed up my FroYo, but it is strange that one week after going back to 2.1.1 I had no issue like this even using the same apps. Time will show ;-)
To moderator : double posting. could you please remove this one...

Does anyone else experience this with the new leaked 2.3.4 HKTW build? Or is it just my Atrix?
Yeah I exp. It as well but I notice my screen becomes in responsive and so do the touch keys. Only the power button and volume rocker work.
I've only experienced this while on a phone call though to be honest. Like when I'm on hold and I'm.checking Facebook or I'm looking something up on the web while on a call. But I definitely think it's a bug in hktw build 2.3.4 cause I beverage had a problem before with it.
I tried looking through the forums and haven't seen any other complaints untilled this one so maybe its just a few of us. Can any one else confirm this or is there a fix some where?

mine works fine...
Happens to mine all the time. Fixes itself after turning the screen off.

when mine freezes even locking phone with the power button and waiting a few seconds to turn it back on doesn't help it still stays un-responsive at the lock screen. I'm actually noticing it happening more and more frequent. or I'm just multi tasking more and more frequent lol idk cant wait for a USA build as apposed to this HKTW build but hey i got to say its definitely pulling me through this month of waiting for it ;P
Mine happened a few times a few days ago...then once the day after, and not since. Been like 4 days now.
i've a cyanogen 7 in my wildfire, and start happens and i dont know why, i've this rom from 3 months and never heard such a thing, hope some one can help fix this.
I've have done a hard reset and nothing
Mine did that already in 2.2 , back then the fix was to lock and unlock the screen. That would always fix the issue, at least until next time. Now in 2.3.4, it still happens, but if I wait 15-20 seconds it usually fixes itself. Looks like Motorola applied some fixes but didn't fix the issue completely.
Bell ATRIX Gobstopper 2.3.4
well guys, i solve the problem for now....
solution:
1º make sure that you have a backup prior to the problem (original stock or other thing), if not you might have to install the room from set one.
2º retrieve you sd card, make a backup of some things that you dont want to lose (like pictures, ring tones, mp3 etc) and leave a folder with a backup that you have, next format sd card in fat32 and put the things that you save (note, dont do all the backup of sd card, like the folders with .com... and android folders etc)
3º go to clockworkmod recovery, by restarting to recovery, wipe all data, like the firs time you install the custom rom, now go to backup and restore and do restore to your backup.
4º Restart and voila, that works for me...i figure that was some app that might cause the problem,(thinking on ndrive 11) im going to test now, but it works.
cheers and post something that might help some one
Gingerbread Problem
I am the same problem everything was fine with Froyo once I updated to Gingerbread I had these issues. Also the droid and nexus folks are reporting those just google up gingerbread phone freeze. I have not found a fix yet. Thanks
I was on rooted 2.1 and sms worked great. I upgraded to wolfbreaks 2.3 rom and everything was working great. Except that fact that i have a sms problem. When i try to send a sms sometimes it works... Sometimes it doesnt. I Deleted the apn settings and that seemed to fix it for a while.. Then it did it again. The only way for me to send the sms is to reboot the phone. While it turns on again thats when it sends the text. I tried reflashing the rom, Nothing. Went to 2.3 ultiama rom or something and it still worked at times but then it stopped. If i reboot then i can send. If not that its just stuck forever. I went back to wolfs 2.3.3 and it does it every now and again. But i have been dealing with this for atleast a week and im getting tired of restarting my phone to text someone.... Any help would be great
Also phone specs are as followed

I've had this problem too. The best solution that seems to work for me is making sure that you have a decent amount of ram free. I never found out why I had this problem but after I cleaned my phone out and made sure I didn't have a lot of apps and services running, which frees up ram, my SMS problems went away.
But they still surface from time to time.
Also make sure you have a decent signal when you send messages. That might be another reason but I really don't know.

I posted it in the very first post....
Try updating to 4.0.4 stock version. That's what i'm on right now.
To tell you the truth if these problems continue to occur of you update, you might want to clean install everything on your phone, especially app data.
So save your contacts and any viable data, a list odd apps you really need and start all over.
hope this helps.

Alright thanks for the advice.
Does anyone ever have issues with the phone/dialer app?
If I try to call someone from contacts, I swipe on their name to the right and nothing happens, if I try again, I notice the contacts app has frozen OR I try to swipe again and nothing happens again. Eventually it might work after 2 or 3 goes.
Then I'll hang up after finally getting it to make the call and the phone immediately tries to make the calls I tried to make earlier... This happens fairly often but not all the time.
OR – (this happens rarely but does happen)
Phone rings, try to swipe the green answer thingo and it just bounces back to where it was, try to swipe/answer again nothing. I can't answer the call. Happened today, really pissed me off. Phone app crashed and refused to make a call after that for about a minute.
Sound familiar to anyone?
Using Android 2.3.5 Vodafone (Australia) stock unrooted.
Anyone?
Would love some help on this.
Yes I am facing the same issues as you.
A few observations:
problems exist on stock dialer app as well as third party dialer apps
It's an intermittent problem i.e. sometimes the problem shows and other times it does not
I was facing the same problem a couple months ago too, since i was running 2.3.3 so i had just upgraded to 2.3.6 and the problem had disappeared. But out of the blue it has again started now while i am running 2.3.6
Currently i am running on stock rom, cf rooted, latest modem.
Am looking for a permanent solution and will post a solution if i find one, in any case hope the official ICS release (due on the 15th) should solve the problem anyways.
Anyone else facing the same problem?
Updates
Usually clearing the cache and calvik cache does not help resolve the issue.
After posting the above post I had just created a ClockWork mod backup and Restored to the same. Dunno how but that resolved the issue, or to be exact, the issue did not surface for a couple days.
Today the issue actually became too much for me to be able to handle.
So I again cleared both cache and dalvik cache and then fixed permissions via CLockWork recovery menu.
Since then I am not facing the issue yet. Hope it works for you too.
(But this is just a preliminary observation and maybe the issue shall resurface with long term use)
p.s. really hoping that the impending ICS update will permanently fix said issue.
After the recent firmware update (I9300XXEMA1 (4.1.2)) [flashed via odin] my phone has been randomly freezing up. The only way around it is to reboot the phone by long pressing the power key. I've searched around the forum and realized its not just me, and some even mentioned it in the Stock Firmware Update thread
I've come across several threads regarding the same issue.

I can comfirm that the issue started with the 4.1.2 update. None of the fixes mentioned in the threads above seems to fix the issue.
So far, I've tried;
Full Wipe
Updating to a newer official build
Changing Kernels
Downgrading to 4.1.1
Applying the lag fix found here
None of them seems to fix the issue :/
I would really appreciate if you guys can point me in the right direction, really getting hopeless right now.
I have the same issue but mine seems to be related to wifi. With wifi off I dont seem to have any freezing issues
Mine seems to freeze almost always in browser......so far firefox nd chrome.....and it just happens haphazardly so i cannot actually nail the cause down.
