The new ICS update + Heat problem? - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hi all, I have just flashed my XS with the CH 4.0.4 .ftf file, and after about 10 minutes of use, the phone is VERY hot!
Has anyone else noticed this yet?

Sounds like something hung up, might be MediaScanner...
Try to reboot or even better, shutdown, wait a couple of seconds, then reboot.
Thank me later mate

Or do a factory reset.

MAJOR FLASHING PROBLEM, please help. FIXED PLEASE DELETE

Ive flashed my x10 about 7 times this morning with different 1.6 and 2.1 FW this morning and still got the same problem.
It flashes ok but when i try to boot it up the backlight comes on and it goes into what looks like a boot loop as in the blacklight flickers at regular intervals and nothing appears on the screen.
Ive tried Bi4nys new 2.1 flasher and wiping the userdata but with no luck alwasy the same problem. Tried restoring with SEUS but still gets stuck in the loop on boot
Please help, any idea greatly received.
Thanks
Mod Please Delete ive now fixed,
Sorry
Would be nice, if you could tell us, how you fix it.... maybe for others with the same problem....
I decrypted my origianal Orange FW that come with the phone and flashed that with Bin4ys original flashing tool, waited for 5mins, removed battery for 1min and then it booted again, thank god!
I hope no one else has this problem because i seriously thought i had buggered something badly. It wasnt even charging, just black screen.
Ok. Thank you.

I had the same problem after updating .....don't worry! It will take some times...for me was more than 10 minutes....

[Q] I know, it's not bricked....

Right, so my i5503T (Australian) was having some wi-fi troubles. I looked it up, and it was suggested to me that I upgrade to Cyanogenmod 7 (for Galaxy 5). Anyway, I installed Clockworkmod, it was fine, then I hard reset the phone (through Clockworkmod) and from then on, when booting it got to the flashing samsung, and stayed there for over 3 hours. After that I turned it off. I did the stupid thing, and went ahead installing Cyanogenmod. Now, as soon as I turn it on, it says 'ANDROID' in small white text in the top-right corner of the screen, and won't go away, EVER. ANY help would be very much so, I got the phone as a gift for chistmas..... *facepalm*
Thanks.
EDIT: It was (natively?) running Froyo before I broke it, and I would like to get it back there, or better (Cyanogenmod).
I have a working Eclair rom (2.1), but I don't want to use it...
Are you able to get it into download mode at all?
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
Yea, I can get into download mode fine, but booting up, not so much.
Update: I used Check Fus Downloader to get firmware, had to use New Zealand as there was no actual Aussie model availible (???). Anyway, I flashed it with odin 4.28 (please tell me it is the right version!) and it is doing the same thing, with the flashing Samsung logo and all. Also, it vibrates once, then three times a few seconds later, then repeats every.... ummm, 30 secs?
Hey, I'm not an expert on this subject but I have messed around with my Galaxy 5 a lot, I broke it 4 times, but I'm guessing your problems could be fixed by;
Shove your device into Download Mode.
Use Odin to flash Clockwork Recovery.
It should now reboot into CW recovery.
Clear dalvik cache, cache and do a reset.
That might sort out any problems as my phone did this after my first flash but clearing the above sorted it out, if that doesn't work then do the same again but then; try flashing another rom onto your device, and see how it goes.
Somebody with more knowledge should correct my post if need be.

try removing your battery and let it out for few minutes, 2 min is enough, than insert the battery and reboot..
hope that solve your loop..
P.S.: did you do a wipe?
Could it have anything to do with the fact I have a i5503T, and that the ops is i5508?
OK, well it's fixed now, sorry for the trouble. It turned out I was missing one of the cyanogenmod files. Soooo, yeah I fell like a massive idiot, but everything turned out fine and well. Cyanogenmod is heaps better than Froyo, so I'm glad about that. Thanks all.

Black update killed my 920

I installed the black update for my 920 & afterwards it completely froze up at the lock screen. So I rebooted it using the held down power button & down volume key method & the same thing happened & kept happening no matter how many times I tried this. So I tried powering it off in small moment it was active & the same thing happened it froze on shutdown with the goodbye message now permanently stuck on the screen.
Anyone know how I can recover my 920 in these circumstances?

I wondered why it happened is the install corrupted?
maybe some error on memory or maybe battery is low and during flashing shut down phone... this happened to some people...

if you did the OTA update, after the first reboot, it then loads the initial lock screen, you should have been able to unlock it. At this point you'll get a screen that says "migrating data" This usually takes about 5-10 minutes depending on how much storage you have in use. Then it reboots again and you're up an running.
May have just been a bad / corrupt file, but the manual flash should fix everything.
I wonder if it was because I got a service message from my network at the same time as it saw it as a new handset.
Sorry for the double post but just to say NSU did the trick oddly it didn't install the latest software as afterwards it was still saying there was an update to install on the phone update on the phone itself. Would think this update would come from the same servers.
Guys can yo tell me what are the differences between plain custom ROM and Roger's ROM..
Well I tried to do the update twice more with the same result each time.
Anyone any ideas on this?

No. Unless you count any slow trickle charge from the PC whilst flashing. TBH because of all the reboots I had lost track of the battery charge on the last flashing attempt.
Latest is on the latest flashing attempt it updated it to Black over NSU. Some of the apps seem OK, some open but freeze & others such as the camera & messaging seem to be missing. Also every time I turn it off it freezes up & has to be rebooted.
Just what is going on with it?
Is there anyway of getting the NSU to re-install the Amber software rather than keep trying to upgrade to the Black version?

Yes it may be that you were no outdated. NSU re-install the latest version available of your Hard Product Code of your device, since/from the Nokia Server. But that does not mean that you have the latest update as Lumia Black, for example.

Roger's is the official rom for devices sold by Roger's, custom is the rom developed by people unofficially authorized by Micro$soft or Nokia.

Bootloop, Not rooted

So my phone started restarting randomly. It will only show the Samsung logo turn off and do the same thing again. Its not rooted and I am pretty sure that its not from something I installed recently (Everything was from the play store and no immediate problems after any of them). When I did the hold volume up,down and power it would only keep on restarting still. But when I just hold volume down it comes to something else that asks if I want to install a new rom. So I was wondering what I should do. Install a new ROM and then revert back ? or will that not work? Also I have a extra I717 with a broken screen I could swap the insides and see if that would help. Also I don't know much about rooting and stuffs. Lemme know what I should do guys! :highfive:

Could be stuck power button. I know, I know, " but its clicking just fine". That doesnt mean anything. Flick the back of your phone a few times.

Yeah I read that It might be the problem but Its still happening with the case removed.

Take out the battery. Insert the battery without touching anything else. Does it just power on itself or does it stay off? If it does turn on, you might have a stuck power button. Let us know what happens
did that too :/
I did that too. It would turn off and on again but only show the Samsung logo then restart again. Also I have the case removed so It cant be the power button being stuck and I have tried the battery thing still nothing.
Whatcha mean? It would turn on by itself once the battery is inserted or you would have to press the power button. Once the battery is out and then inserted back in, it is not supposed to be powered on by itstelf. If it does turn on by itself, then the power button is most likely pressed in.

I have a I717 doing the same thing. (Eg. device boots and seems to function for a about 2 minutes locks up and reboots. )
As the device was stock when it started having this issue I figured it might be an OS issue Factory reset to it would leave the device booting to optimize applications then reboot. Checked power button checked it was clean.
Also staied on when in recovery without issue.
As I figured this was an OS issue I installed CWM
Downloaded and installed SlimBeam
Device booted and completed instlation and operated for about 2 minutes and rebooted.
Device will does not have any issues with in CWM or Odin. I
I read alsowhere that the internal SD-Card filesystem might have become corrupted and need to be reformated however I have yet to find instruction or confirmantion.
Anyone have some ideas?
.
to Tal Star.
1. When you were in CWM and were about to flash, did you wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache then do the flash? Or just flash?
2. So either os it would do the same? Stay on for about two minutes, then reboot? Would it reboot back into the os and do the same?

So right now you can boot up into the os and it will turn off in 2 minutes? or just given enough time? Will it boot into the os each time? I dont think ill have an answer for it, but i bet someone that does will want to know the same things to possibly narrow it down

Naw it starts optimzing the Applications and lasts a few minutes reboots locks up and starts again. SlimBean completes the process and makes it all the way to the launcher but after a same amount of time it reboots. back to the launcher. (Slim bean has a resonable number less Apps and that's why it completes or is my best guess)

I really wouldnt know about that. Hopefully someone will come by and help you out. I wonder being on the latest recovery would help if youre not already and then doing it all over? Hopefully someone more experienced will chime in.
Could be a corrupt download.
Again, I always flash rom 2 times. You can get different reactions from 2 seperate flashes. 2 time seems to get a more solid installation.
Wait your 10 and reboot.
Still think its a power button issue. It can act normal but still be the problem. Hows you battery?

HAAAAA I hope some one finds this trouble... having the same issue Here... Does your phone starts up correctly when sim card removed? Mine does when sim card removed and pluged into coputer or wall plug.... Did the same steps you did with no effect either... could it be a power management problem ??? :silly: This is getting me nuts...

I dobut it's a download. I use CWM to flash from an external SD card. However I did try reflashing like you suggest with no change. The battery is fine as far as I can tell, like I said it will stay online in recovery on battery for what seems like forever.

Nope I am working on the one I have with the SIM Card out & SD card out.
happens
So what I done so far is taken out the sim and sd card. Took out the battery put it back in and when I power to turn it on It vibrates (like it normaly would when it starts) then shows Samsung logo turns off and loops. I tried doing the hold volume up down power thing and it does not work. But what does work is when I hold volume down it takes me to a custom OS thing. I don't know what that is but I cant get there. So maybe put a custom OS in and then revert it back?
So I used Odin and put 4.1.2 Jelly Bean Official Firmware but its still doing what it was doing before.Used 3.07 and it said it passed fine. Should I try a different rom or something else? Also the first time it starts up after installing the rom it goes past the logo to the ATT ball animation logo freeze there and turns of then when I turn it on from there it will loop at the samsung logo again.
You can try the firmware upgrade and initialization feature in kies. It will return your device to the original factory firmware, software, and settings. If it still loops after that you have hardware issues.
Ok so I guess im making progress now. After I put the stock rom (Different one from befor) It DIDNT BOOT LOOP well it did but only looped 3 times then stoped. Also there are 2 Samsung logos. the frist one was just normal logo ( same one I was having befor ) then the screen turns off and shows the same logo but this time its a little bigger its white with a blue glow! ( Made it further this time but still crashes afterwards) BUT now I can actualy get into the Manual mode. I did a wipe data/factory reset in that mode which didnt help i wiped the cache too. Still didnt help.
Now in manual mode my computer does recognize that something is connected to it now but it tries to configure it and keeps on failing. And so samsun kies cant connect to it either.
But from where I started at its a improvement
My Note is doing the same thing too now, but I know the reason why. I was trying to install clockworkmodrecovery so I would be able to upgrade to jellybean and I think I flashed a kernel that was meant for rooted phones (pretty dumb of me I guess). So now the phone is stuck and I'm going to try to install the original jellybean 4.1.2 for rogers and hopefully that will fix it.
As long as you can get into Odin download mode, your phone can be fixed.
