Hi XDA, I got a big weird problem on my Xperia S. The problem occurs when I flash KA SSpeed Kernel v5. Here's the details of my problem:
Problem 1, First, while I'm using my phone, games, browsing, messaging or anything, my phone freezes. I restart my phone by pressing power and holding it together with volume up button. It restarted but after 3-5 minutes (doing nothing) it freezes again. I flashed another Kernel to see if the problem is with the Kernel but after flashing another Kernel (XSX, Advanced Stock, KA SSpeed 3, 3.1, 4.0) the problem still exists. So I decided to Flash back to stock to see if the problem is in my ROM (Mooded ICS by Chaos). After Flashing back to the Stock ROM problem 2 exist
Problem 2, It still freezes, I restart again, problem still there. I read some solutions in sony mobile forums site. They said that it is a sim card problem. the phone freezes after 3-5 minutes even though you're not doing anything. So I changed my sim card and yes the problem was gone. After 4-5 hours no freeze. I decided to put back my first sim card (it's a postpaid so I need that badly) after putting back my simcard, I waited 3-5 minutes, 10 minutes, an hour, up to night time. It didn't freeze, in short there is no problem at all, but then problem 3 occurs.
Problem 3, I charged my phone overnight, as I woke up, I can't turn on my phone, I restart it again manually (power button + volume up). It turned on, then after 3-5 minutes, doing nothing, it reboots sometimes it freezes, like my previous problem. now the weirdest problem is Problem 4.
Problem 4, everytime I use my phone, voice call, games, browsing, it didn't freeze or reboot, but when the phone is in idle mode, like charging, doing nothing it freezes, but sometimes (every afternoon, from 3pm to night time) it didn't freeze or reboot.
please help me. I don't know if these problems exist to your phones. I really need help. thank you!
Use another kernel.

Do not root your phone and test it for a day.

not working man
Hello guys, I'm dealing with a strange problem with my Mini Pro (sk17i). I can use it normally, then suddently (I can't find a connection with any apps and the problem) it vibrates for about 3, 4 seconds and it freezes for a while (another 4, 5 seconds). After that, the phone runs normally, apparently.
Flashing the FW again (Stock GB) with Flashtools doesn't seem to fix it.
Any Ideas?
PS: Using a CFW, for a while, it's not an option for me.
Thanks!
Rooted the stock rom, did the Project Fluid script mod and some bloat-cleaning and it is working well now.. Unfortunatelly I can't tell the exact solution, but the problem is gone by now.
Hello,
From 2 days till i gave up, i was trying to put @Psycho CM mod alpha 4 release. Well i Almost did it but have some Bootloop problems.
'When the sim card is out, well everything starts normally. When i put it in, the phone stucks in the booting logo, and after 10 seconds it restarts, and its the same, bootlooping. i tried everything, wipe data / factory reset, but nothing seems to fix this bug. Without SIM is ok, but i need my SIM card in, and I need my phone in CM7 Alpha 4 working. Please help.
This Sony Ericsson Live With Walkman was working fine. One day, when on a call, the phone got itself restarted. But after restart, it keeps on restarting as a loop. Thought that it was an issue with bad SIM card. So got a new duplicate SIM card and tried again. But whenever the phone accesses the SIM card or the carrier, it just restarts.
Then tried removing the SIM card and turned on the device. It was working fine. Then set it to Aeroplane Mode and tried putting the SIM. There was no problem. Then when I disabled the Aeroplane Mode, the phone started to restart like a loop! So thought that it was an issue with OS(Gingerbird).
Then tried updating the OS to Sony's ICS update. After that, inserted SIM card. At first time when it is started, it was on Aeroplane Mode(which I enabled earlier). So, when I disabled it, the phone restarted. But after restart, it didn't get in the restart loop! But whenever a call is received, the phone just restarts !
Everything else is working fine! How can I fix this issue? Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thank you
Hey guys! This is my first thread here, but I knew this site before. I've got an M4 Aqua E2303, Android 5.0, Build 26.1.A.2.167 (upgraded from .99 with TWRP to keep the root.).
The story : I've got this phone like 4 months ago, I was so happy etc... After it updated to 5.0 it kept restarting randomly. Total random, when it was not under using, if I use it, it does not restart itself. Sometimes the restarts occurs when it's under charging, and sometimes when I want to unlock it and use it, and sometimes total randomly, and sometimes it shuts down. For different verions the problem was different too. On 26.1.A.2.99 it was the worst, it restarded and stuck on the boot screen until reached 0% battery. On 26.1.A.2.128 It turend off the screen, but the phone was running and the LED was red (even when fully charged) and only started with the hard off button in the SD card slot.
I've got the default "Diagnostics" app, now it says that the Phone got system errors 42 times in 10 days. It was worse before (over 140). But it doesn't say why did it restart, I'm hoping for help from any of you, who had this issue and solved it, or someone who knows a better diagnostic tool that will explain what caused the system fault.
I appreciate all the helps!
Have you performed a factory reset? (It will delete all your data and apps)

Yes, when the phone was new and the restarts were annoying. It fixed it for 1 day. The next day it was restarting again.
This would point to an app you've installed causing the issue. Factory reset again and install each app one by one until the restarts happen to find out which.

If you used the pre-rooted zip to maintain root while updating to the latest android, this will fix your rebooting problem. Follow this guide:
