X10 reboots when using apps or playing music - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I initially flashed my x10 from 2.1 to 2.3, it worked fine for about 3 months then it kept rebooting when i powered it on, thought it was something with the firmware so i re-flashed it back to 2.1. it is more stable now but when i am using a app/game or play music it freezes up and reboots. i'm using the latest flashtool .9.11 and firmware build- 2.1.A.0435 baseband 2.154
HELP!

i had this issue before & it was caused by a bad battery. it didn't matter which rom i was using. check with a different battery if you have a spare. good luck.

nope my phone isn't rooted, so i don't think its overclocked.

I have the same prob, same firmware you have, bt mine just reboots, even when plugd in, phone was kinda bricked, i managed to flash 2.1 using flashtool, then updated via pcompanion to 3, i still had the reboot/freeze up when i managed to get phone running again on 2.1 global, and i still have it with the upgrade. Is it nt maybe that the batteries cd be faulty? Or they cnt handle the power consumption requests that are required. Cd it be a failing part on the phones mobo? Charge block? Mine resets or freezes whether plugd into power socket, or laptop, mine is chargn though, bt 1 or two of my batrys go frm red to green charge in a few mins switchd on. Which cnt be ryt, so if it cd charge so fast i cn only think it wd lose power just as fast, or freeze or reboot, or there a fault on mobo. What are the hard reset btns?

I know this sounds odd and I thought it was a joke, but baking the main circuit board in the oven for 10min MAY correct system reboots.
Google "XPERIA X10 Oven" and take it from there.
There was/is a thread in X10 Q&A about doing this too.

Any1 could explain how does your phone get overclocked?

A soft click sounds like u refern to the vibrate, when the phone powers up, maybe your bat kaput? I cn already feel by the strength of the vibrate if it will boot or nt, its gta be a strong vibrate when powering up, although i still reboot. Bt phone bn getn longer uptime as i gain sum kinda ground i think.

You need to flash a new kernel, Try flashing the stock kernel for your O.S. Alot of issues can rise if the kernel is messed up. Being you havent unlocked your bootloader, Or even upgraded to a kernel that has a CWM or "Recovery" menu its going to be more difficult. But dont get me wrong, unlocking your bootloader isn't fun. But you might have to in order to finally fix your issues so that way you can get into more settings on your phone. Get back to me.

Good place for a new kernel? I have rooted and done my stuff with flashtool... eg unlocked bootloader but to this day I stilk have the restart issue. What shd it be clocked at and how do I find out if its for sa because no matter what sim a sim id never detected... but will scan sa networks and show those available... but I cnt use any of those networks as the ohone dont see a sim. It will ask me on inserting a sim locarion and then it says pkease restart and insert a simcard... what the...? Cd that be the cause if my restarts, I have four batteries. .. although they are old

[Q] Sudden power off.

Hey guys!! i have had a problem with my X10. When i play some games on my phone it all of a sudden powers off. When i power it on it boots and switches off again. I tried updating the software but it didn't work. Can anyone help me with this..... is this a hardware problem?
which rom r u using and ru overclocking ur rom to play games !! if ur overclocking the ROM then certain games has this problem of causing random reboots too !! if not then try installing the game again after wiping ur cache!! and fix permissions
Flash thjap's kernel, while playing games overclock to 1152 and enjoy. If you have ram manager, then select the option "hard play games"

have u try to re-plug the battery ?
Look at my signature...
1.st link.
It's overheating.
I had random reboots earlier in the year, so i took my phone to my local 3 shop and (although it was rooted) they took it in for repair. A week later, i went to pick it up and to my suprise they gave me a brand new phone, saying the hardware had malfunctioned and so it was un-repairable. I wasnt expecting that as i knew i had voided my warrenty, but from my experience it could be hardware related
Hope that kinda helps?
Yeah. Rooting does not void your warranty. unlocking BL does. Any idea on what hardware issue it is? Do u have the same problems with the new phone as well?
Does changing the battery help??
I had the same problem and would get voltage drops or inconsistent voltage when the battery wasn't near-full yet I could slowly drain the device but under load would shut down....
I tried a gazillion things to fix it including a number of different kernels...
just changing the battery fixed EVERYTHING!
And batteries were pretty cheap.
Hello folks,
I have the same problem with some roms.
The phone turn always off in 50% of battery. Ive been testing a few methods like battery calibration by app, xrec and omegared process, but none works.
Im trying to install the SE tock rom but nothing works, in that moment I´m wainting to receive a new battery but I´ve read from some people with same problem that a new battery neither a solution.
If someone in this problem have been this problem with a solution a I would like to know about it

As I wrote above, I had the same issue as you
and like you I tried all those things.
A new battery DID solve my problem So, hopefully it WILL solve yours.
This phone is pretty old. March 2010 to now is 20 months which is around the time I don't trust these battery to work well. My carrier (NTT Docomo) even gives you a new battery after 24 months.

Random Reboots?
The phone has always occasionally rebooted itself from time to time since I bought it . I think whenever resource contention becomes too critical it reboots itself like "have you tried turning it off and on again" in the TV Series "The IT Crowd"
The phone rebooting itself from time to time only really impacts you if it does it while you are in the middle of something. That never happens to me. Usually the reboots are when the phone is short on free memory but in sleep mode for me.
In the past week, my phone has rebooted once or maybe even twice but that's about it.

[Q] Restarts.

I have bought xps about 20 days ago. Yesterday and today , while I was surfing the net via wifi (both times) , my phone suddenly switched off and made a restart. Did anyone experience a problem like this ?? It never happened before.
Not had that problem - infact I was just thinking today that I haven't restarted my phone for a week.. and it still feels super smooth... which I've never experienced before on Android!
Never had a sudden restart, lag or unresponsive device. Seems that you are the only one here with such a luck...
Is this a reason for returning my phone to Sony? Is sony obliged to replace my device with another one?

Unfortunately sudden restarts are very common in the android world. I think 80% of the android smartphones had at least once this problem. You should wait to see if it happen again and if so try a hard reset or a software repair using sony pc companion. If it will become a common problem even with other users sony with a future update it will fix the problem. What software version do you have .62 .67 or .73 ?
Hi,
If you have this reboot issue
Nothing can resolve this!
But,just in case
Do not use your phone with charger pluged in for long time!
This kill your battery very quick!
And cause autoreboot
And be careful with internet!
If you flash some FW or rom or kernel
Made a full charge before flash

I've had this happen to me on my Xperia S twice already while using it.
It also randomly restarts while in standby once in awhile.
Not sure what's causing this. Any suggestions?

If it's not happening very offen like twice a day, the only thing you can do is wait for the 4.0 update, because If you look in all the other android smartphone forums you will see that every android model have this issue from time to time. I think is something like the Windows OS bluescreen...very very difficult for normal users to detect where is the problem. I think with the 4.0 update the problem it will be solved. But if the Xperia S become unstable and randomly rebooting every day try a software repair with pc companion and if this is not solving the problem just go to a Sony support center and give them the smartphone for replacement.
I have the reboot twice
Refresh ROM good!
Hi, my phone also has random restarts. It becomes sluggish and unresponsive, then just restarts.
I think mine has done it once or twice when just in standby mode as well.
I actually got my first Xperia S replaced as it had this problem, but the replacement is also suffering from it.
Seen a few other people saying they have the same over on the Sony forums, so I think its a software problem somewhere.

I have .73. I didn't flash my device nor I use it when charges(and I don't let it charging for hours).
I think that there was not enough RAM at that time but I am not sure. I'll have to check it out.
I just experienced the same problem not too long ago. I was web browsing and my phone crashed and rebooted on it's own. I'm on the phone with Sony right now because I have the youtube issue as well. This sounds like a software issue.
Had mine since March 6. So far only one random reboot, none since update to 6.0.A.5.6
Sent from my SO-02D using xda premium
I called Sony Mobile Canada to report this issue. I told her others are having this issue as well. She's going to escalate it. I would like to encourage everyone who's having this problem to call Sony tech support in your Country and let them be aware of this issue. The more people call about this issue, just maybe they will work on a software fix sooner rather than later. Strength in numbers!
No restart on mine
I heavy use internet 3G/wifi on it
But,
I never flash anything on mine with flashtool or seus or pcc
Pure stock FW.67
12w14
AAD-AV
Only 2 "big" issue
Phone freeze one time
when plug charger in
VolumeUp+power solve the bug,
And the yellow tint on the screen.
Normally,when the phone keep autoreboot,or autopowerOff
It is caused by a dead battery
You can identify it
by keep hold power when the phone restart by itself
and at reboot
If the led blink 3 time red when holding power
That's indicated battery die
Or made a battery test in service *#*#7378423#*#*
But your phone is new !
So try a full charge with reset battery to get best power (volumeUp + power 5second one vibrate)
If your phone is rooted
you can delete manualy "power_supply"
in sys/class and reboot
with charger pluged in
After that,
try a full restore with seus with wipe data ect..
Can't help more :-(

this is MY OWN video...
thanks for letting me know I'm not alone....
i sent it to the service center... the "smart" man there said it was a software issue, to which i did not agree...
we had a small quarrel then he took it and sad they'll troubleshoot it...
one week later i called they said it was ready
so i went to get it. and surprisingly enough, they HARD BRICKED IT !!!! :cyclops:
HOW IDIOTIC IS THAT ???
the man said they found out it was a touchscreen issue and replaced the touchscreen (which i believe is a total BS because the touchscreen WORKS even though i don't see what i'm doing but the screen accepts my touches as orders)
so he turned the phone ON and the sony ericsson logo came up, dimmed then bright, then it's supposed to dim again, right ???
NO , it stayed bright and phone wouldn't go past this step
he tried several times with no luck, so he had to take it back to try to fix it again but i think they will eventually replace the phone because they don't seem to KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING !!!
sorry to hear this .
I called service and they said they can return old andoid.factory.so it will not be ICS anymore but it will work.
God deal to me
I will let you know results

they did NOT fix it,
but they REPLACED IT with a new device... i knew because 1st thing i did was check *#06# and found a different Serial Number
they told me they replaced he motherboard
after clarification, they meant they replaced THE WHOLE phone except the battery and bckcover
me too this happend to me too but i figured out i was using a bad mod for my ray and the problem dissapeard
i had no MODS
i had original STOCK GB .42 updated to .62 then to ICS .562 then to ICS .431
Hmm Reflash Firmware>? maybe it could work or try freeing up ram
Very similar to a problem I had: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvTFg2J0L4o
The blackout would happen as well as flickering. Not only that, but a weird clicking noise could be heard near the USB port, and the sound did not work at all. I sent it back and got a new one.

I could be wrong, but I don't think there is a fix. Flashing a new ROM will not solve the problem. It's a hardware issue. Only way to fix it is to send for repair or replacement. I tried everything when it happened to me and nothing worked.

Reboot issue xperia x10

Hi
I have a problem with my x10, and I've seen that other people have similiar problem but i have still no answer to my question.
The problem is simply that my phone reboots itself when overheating/or connecting to 3g internet.
This is when i first saw the problem:
The phone was recently updated to newest firmware 2.3
( the phone started to reboot itself a couple of days later but i didnt think it was related to the firmware)
At that moment the phone was as new ( no root, no bootloader unlock etc)
Then i thought to fix the problem by ( rooting, unlock bootloader, flash new firmware)
Guess what? Phone still rebooting.
Then i was getting pissed, so i " degraded" the phone and flashed 2.1 firmware.
GUESS WHAT? The problem was solved
My question is now, why the fudge is my phone Rebooting itself in 2.3 firmware and not in 2.1 firmware!?!?
Edit : just used the phone with the 2.1 firmware a couple of days, now its rebooting when using 3g... So frustrating to have a smartphone and not be able to browse the web :S

Try it and report back. If it still like that try different stock kernel and if still rebooting your phone needs new parts.

Hi
I have a problem with my x10, and I've seen that other people have similiar problem but i have still no answer to my question.
The problem is simply that my phone reboots itself when overheating/or connecting to 3g internet.
This is when i first saw the problem:
The phone was recently updated to newest firmware 2.3
( the phone started to reboot itself a couple of days later but i didnt think it was related to the firmware)
At that moment the phone was as new ( no root, no bootloader unlock etc)
Then i thought to fix the problem by ( rooting, unlock bootloader, flash new firmware)
Guess what? Phone still rebooting.
Then i was getting pissed, so i " degraded" the phone and flashed 2.1 firmware.
GUESS WHAT? The problem was solved
My question is now, why the fudge is my phone Rebooting itself in 2.3 firmware and not in 2.1 firmware!?!?
Edit : just used the phone with the 2.1 firmware a couple of days, now its rebooting when using 3g... So frustrating to have a smartphone and not be able to browse the web :S

maybe a battery problem?
I too had the same issue, the phone overheats when using 3g or wifi, downloading, etc, and then it turns off or reboots...
so I got a new battery from ebay, charged it and cleared battery stats and then till now no reboots
The solution i got to ...
My phone is unrooted and loaded with CM7.
it keeps on rebooting when restarted with a sim inside.
the solution i use :
stick the battery in the freezer for a minute.
take it out power on the phone and that's it.
the phone starts perfectly.
odd, but that works 100% of the time for me.
hope it helps.
alright guys, actually i didnt tell u all my attempted solutions. I also got a NEW battery to the phone. didnt work for me im sorry... Now it also reboots when using the CAM recording.
I had that problem back in 2011. My phone used to reboot itself once every two days at first, but the problem got worse after a month and I couldn't use my X10 for more than 15 minutes without it overheating and rebooting. The battery temperature used to be around 40°C before rebooting.
I got it replaced after the third time i sent it to repair. I remember I read that was a motherboard issue or probably letting the phone fall would cause that too.
If you still have warranty try to get it replaced. Wish you luck.

Bumping..
I have found a OEM Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Navigator Flex Cable Ribbon - Replacement Part.
Can that replacement help me to avoid overheating the phone ?
Overheat CPU causes it, you can try heatsink compound (used to apply on computer CPU) to apply on top of Qualcomm CPU to see if it solves

[Q] Galaxy s3 screen stuck on black screen when idle

Hi there,
i've searched the net for help and didn't find anything similar.
my girlfriend and I both using galaxy S3 9300 4.1.2 bought in June.
In the last few week both of us suddenly saw that the phone turns off while it idle.
In most of the cases the solution was turn it back on, but sometimes it didn't help and we had to take the battery off and back on.
today I noticed for the first time that the phone doesn't really off- since the notification led still flashes.
I'm using apex launcher she use TW.
any idea anyone?
I will be grateful,
Thanks
Or
edit:
both phone are stock rom
mine with the UK Rom
Her with the Indian Rom
both 4.1.2 virsion.
I am having the same problems since last week. Sometimes it also freezes in applications. The GUI thread is then still running because I can see animations from loading dialogs and the wifi indicator also blinks. When this freeze occurs, the device won't react on button presses (except very long press on power button to reboot). Also the device is not going into standby mode (screen off) after 30 seconds.
Maybe this is a side effect of the last update? I am running build version JZO54K.I9300XXELLA (Dutch intl version).
Edit: when it's stuck also the battery is drained very fast.
you might be right and maybe there is a connection between last update and all that bugs suddenly appears.
I update through odin to the newest firmware:
I9300XXEMB1 I9300OXAEMB1 I9300XXMB1 BTU
anyone have a clue?
Data wipe would be first start point really
I would start from that, but how come that it started on both phone at same time- doesnt it means its a software related?

No idea to be honest, are they both stock phones? Rooted? Could even be something inane like a recent app update that isn't working properly, could be almost anything

both unrooted, both running stock rom.
anyway if so, i guess you wont recommend to back all my app, right?
I would back then up, system data is most likely the cause, so my advice would be just restore app data only where necessary and important

You flashed an international i9300 Rom on to your AT&T 9300, they are different phones, and you are in the wrong forum
