So... hopefully this runs long enough. I'm having issues. Randomly, usually after I lock the scrren, then unlock it, the phone reeboots. And then it tries to power on but just keeps vibrating till I hit power button it happens frequently.
I used Odin to go back to stock and all that, but still does it.
Phone has been unlocked.
Thoughts?

I'm thinking if you went back to stock that it may just be the device itself that is dysfunctional. Does your device seem hotter than normal by any chance?

Nope. Seems normal. Runs normal until it locks.

Reboot was super fast when I first got my 3VO--anyone else experiencing much slower reboots now?
I have fast boot checked under settings; also my reboots are typically unrooting the phone as well (would that slow down reboot a lot?)
I'm guessing it's just the massive # of apps I've added..?
After system has been altered, reboots are slow as it rewrites the whole system positron

Fastboot only works for powering off and on you restart or do a battery pull you get a normal boot

Fastboot is for when you reboot too, not for powering off/on, or batterypull.
Hence the million times it was stated to disable fastboot to get a GOOD/ full reboot, and the countless times I've been told by Sprint to pull the battery rather than powercycle/ reboot.
Mine is slow as heck, but I can't just reboot, I h have to shut down and restart every time as my restart doesn't f seem to work

Mine either......thought I was tripping.

if you cant do a reboot the fastboot option may be turned off.
I had the EVO and it was the same. After I load all my crab on the phones they take a while to reboot. I just deal with it and try to not let it die haha. But as said before after temp rooting it will take especially long.
--- resurrecting this thread rather than starting a new one ---
So has it been confirmed that fastboot only works on powering off, rather than on restart as well? Because with fastboot enabled, if I power the phone off, powering it back on is lightning fast. But If I try the "Restart" option, I actually get the warning:
Restarting your phone will clear temporary files out of memory. Would you like to restart your phone now?

I do have my phone rooted using Revolutionary, if that makes a difference.
Hi guys, I was thinking about changing from a Note 2 to this phone. With rooting though I know a battery pull is sometimes necessary which seems like it would be a problem on the HTC One. Has anyone experienced issues rooting that a battery pull might have fixed? Or maybe there's a work around?
Pushing and holding the power button is the same as pulling the battery.

Thanks for the info, that just hasn't been my experience with other phones. Specifically if the OS is locked up. Would the phone power down in such case, using the method to turn it off as you described?

I have read that yes, it will force the phone to reboot. It certainly works on the s2 and the s3. Never had to pull the battery in either.

I had a freeze while playing with a new ROM and pushing the power button for 10 secs worked just fine. I wasn't even booted into the OS. Don't think it will be much of an issue.
Yes holding the power button worked for me.

holding the power down for 10-15 seconds simulates a batt pull. doesnt matter if your phone is booted or not. its a hardware function built into the phone not software based.

Thanks for the replies, especially this info. Worst case I could always let the battery drain dry. My next task now is getting out of my current contract lol.
Every now and then, my screen will freeze up and become unresponsive. Just once in a blue moon. But when it does happen, I have to go through the hassle of taking my case apart to do a battery pull. I searched up a soft reset method, like I would use when my old fascinate or gnex froze so I didn't have to pull the battery.I found that long pressing the power button will perform a soft reset. However, when it froze, it didn't do anything? I had to do a battery pull. When I turned it back on, I pressed the power button for 30+ seconds. It didn't do anything. Is there something I'm doing wrong or what? I'm on CR 3.1 and Saber Kernal if that means anything.
TIA!

You should really look into running a rom that does not freeze up on you.
But anyways it looks like the battery pull is your only option all long as touch screen is unresponsive
Make sure your super user updates or go down a level that solved my oroblem

You cannot really soft reset the Note 2 since you are able to pull out the battery unlike other devices like Droids in which don't have access to battery.
You should get a new rom if you do in fact freeze.

I should, but it doesn't happen often and when it doesn't freeze everythings pretty much perfect. I've been using CR 3.1 since march and everything's set up perfectly.
Well, not 3.1 since march. Just dirty flashed some updates.

This has happened either twice or three times in the past month. I will plug my phone up to the charger overnight with it on, as always. When I wake up in the morning, the phone is completely unresponsive. I can't even get the "manual reboot" method to work, I always have to end up doing a battery pull.
This has been on two separate ROMs, kernels, etc. If this happens again I might have to get a different phone, never had this problem with the S3.
Any ideas as to what could be causing this?
I've started noticing this as well. Except mine does it just with me hitting the power button to get it to unlock. What ROMs have you tried maybe its one of them?
I'm using EclipseTW. Thought about getting a replacement because of it but don't want to risk getting an ME7 phone.

CleanROM and Eclipse.
The phone is basically frozen, nothing responds not even manually rebooting it, which I thought was supposed to reboot the phone no matter what.
It's called a SOD. Usually has to do with your phone not liking a custom kernel. If you are using a custom ROM that includes a custom kernel that is most likely the cause. Try flashing a different like Faux's.

+1 Most of my SOD's have been kernel related. Try flashing the stock kernel.

I have also had problems like this because of a bad battery, or bad cable/charger.

Hello, I am having a problem with my note and it is scaring me. As soon as my note boots it is shutting off completely and restarting. I was just using it with fine last night. I had the uber kernel installed and oced to 1.9 cpu but it wasn't even that hot.. After thinking it was the Rom that was causing this I did a complete wipe and flashed the candykat Rom, upon boot when the cyogenmod log in screen appears it shut down and rebooted again.. twice. I'm hoping nothing is damaged internally. I am able to stay in the recovery just fine without any problems. Please help me.. And when I say shutdown I mean insta black screen and reboot..

Idk if I will do that lol. But now I think I know what the problem is. So yesterday I was using my note and it shut off. The battery was full and when it restarted the battery all the sudden dropped to 60%. It turned off again and went to 1%... I thought it was glitching when it said 1% but after amin it shutdown due to low battery. One thing I then tried was having my phone plugged in while using it and I played games, used my phony heavy and what do you know.. It didn't turn off. So I'm thinking I have a bad battery. PS: I took my note to a pawn shop and they said the battery was bloated. He said it wasn't supposed to spin while on a flat surface.. What do you think?
It seems while I'm playing a game the battery heats up and that causes shutdown cause I'm typing this and I don't have my charger plugged in and its fine..

Yes a bulging battery is a sign that it's bad. Batteries are cheap. Especially on eBay. I buy an extra battery and charging dock for all my devices. This way one is always fully charged, and I don't have to plug in the device unless I need Odin or to file transfer. I learned that lesson 2yrs ago when my usb charging port went bad.

Yeah it has to be the battery. Earlier today when I was using my note it said low battery at 2%, I looked at my phone afew minutes later and it said 4%?? Lol. The charger wasn't even plugged in.

If my power button was stuck would I see the shutdown menu before it rebooted, shutdown, reboot, sleep, etc? I'm just trying to make sure my battery is the problem.. I don't want to deal with a power button..

No you won't see the power menu. It just keeps restarting. I don't think you'd even see your home screen because it restarts before the rom loads.

Oh well then. That's awesome because I'm able to use my phone for more than 5 mins without it shutting down. It usually shuts down when I start playing a game or something intensive. So it has to be the battery! I'm really happy.

Well my phone shut off again when using another not as bad but still a bit puffed out note battery. I don't understand what's going on here... I'm scared to buy a new one thinking that It won't work still... my phone never turns off as much when the charger is in... But guaranteed with battery only. Less than 10 mins.
