CM7 12 random reboots

I'm a noob to android especially flashing roms and such. Anyway for some reason the 12 update keeps restarting about every 20 min. Anyone else having this issue, I'm going to wipe all the data and re-install. Any other suggestions?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 4GivenByChrist:
I wound up going back to 10... 12 had way too many random restarts while texting, in the middle of a phone call, etc. Never had this on any other CM7 nightly...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] franklin270h:
Just curious as to the incall volume issue, I held off on nightly #12 cuz apparently a few bugs, but 10 was stable enough I made a nandroid backup. I'm just curious how many people are having the issue? I've had it on both CM7 and MIUI. I know people had issues with it on the Thunderbolt and other HTC phones too, so I guess I'm just wondering if it's common enough that it's going to be incorporated into the builds, or if it's going to be a patch thing for people experiencing the issue?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] djh816:
Can't speak for others but I have no in call volume issue. CM7 is working great on my Inc2. I was surprised how easy the transition from running CM7 on my Incredible 1 was. We even already have working front cam and 720p on an AOSP rom :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] dg4prez:
Does anyone else have issues with wired headsets? Seems like anytime you have a headset plugged in neither the headset mic nor the phone mic (with just stereo out) works. That seems like a high priority issue.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Bobby Buggs:
Yes I have NO mic when I plug in my headphones:( I can live with it but it should be a priority
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] voxigenboy:
does anyone know if the battery status issue has been fixed yet on 13?..

i'm talking about how when it gets to 90% charged the light turns green(making me think it's fully charged). these CM7 based ROMs seem to be the only ones with this issue. all other ROMs don't do this.
[Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps] brutalimpacto:
For this you need your phone to be rooted. download the application "Type Fresh" grant root permissions to the application. take a backup for the fonts on the phone.

a new folder fonts is created in the sdcard copy the fonts you like Ariel.ttf :D. you can change the fonts to the one you downloaded and set them as the fonts for you phone. if the fonts is not compatible then phone will hang at the lg screen. then re install the ram through recovery screen(to get recovery screen power+volume down+home). Do not wipe/clear cache. if you do that it becomes a fresh install :P ! have fun ~ ~

cheers ravi

if it helped you post a thanks it make me write again :-) !
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dtowngs4g:
So i installed the leaked gm a few weeks ago but removed it when i learned of the bootloader issue and overheating issues. Now i have Bionix w/3.3uv bali. Now phone has either been fc'ing or shuts off completely or reboots. Any ideas? I may revert back to kd1 by whitehawx and see if same problem rxists. Personally i think texas heat may be culprit my battery has been 106F and greater. Appreciate any ideas. TIA

*edited since typing while i was half asleep & pissed about my phone shutting completely off. Lol*
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Somairotevoli:
Where did you get 3.3 bali?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] danstheman7:
Bali is only currently out with version 3.2, must've been a posting mistake.

Anyway, do a full factory restore and see if that works.

If not, ODIN back to KD1.

If you don't want to lose your Apps or Data (contacts, bookmarks, etc) use TitaniumBackup.

You can also ODIN Gingerbread KF2, which has proven to be very stable (little to no bugs) for me and many other users.

Finally, did you ever calibrate your battery when switching FW versions? It sometimes helps.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dtowngs4g:
My bad 3.2bali uv. Told yall i was half asleep typing this. Lol. I really think my battery is culprit. But i did factory reset and went to kd1 deodex then back to black ice. Same issue. Uninstalled now im tryg trigger. And i thk if i do 3.2uv again i will disable lagfix. But my phone reboots every 5mins or while even downloading roms when on black ice & 3.2. Aarrgghhh. So we shall see. So far on trigger for 2 hours and no reboots. Maybe gm bootloaders effed up my compatibility with bali 3.2uv? Thanks guys. Or maybe tegrak is culprit?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] dtowngs4g:
Yep i did calibrate. I live in dallas and outside a lot waitg on bus or train. So temps in the 100s arent helping.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aquaars:
Basically: what's bad ass? I know it's a general question, but it's the first thing I think of when I get a new device. First thing I did when I got a PSP? Figured out how to hack it/the firmware. iPhone? Jailbroke! Dreamcast (yeah even that far back)? Utopia!

So I kinda know what I'm talking about. But Android is such a huge/new thing to me, I have no idea where to start except maybe "rooting" which I've already done to the Captivate. However I know a little more than that, some friends of mine have Androids actually...

Anyways: I know you can modify the marketplace to get custom apps (which I'm assuming is being done by a custom rom), which is a concern of mine since I want to run my own appstore on it (not standalone, but hopefully you get what I mean) as well as develop apps. That stuff I can figure out, but this whole "flashing" ordeal has got me stuck. I'm trying to install the "MIUI" or at least that's what I think it is. here's the site (nevermind, new users can't post links...)

I'm stuck at basically step 4 of their instructions, but only because of step 5 and 6. Step 5 is for the CWM (which I can't figure out how to install, do I need a microSD?) and step 6 I'm confused on. The reason I'm confused is cause I'm on firmware 2.1-update1 and not 2.1. I see the difference, but is there an actual difference?

Any help would be awesome. I've been googling all night over this stupid stuff and want to get this phone up to par!
[Galaxy S II General] coolfi:
If you are in UK, I am offering a free Jig service for members. With it you can get rid of the triangle on start-up if you rooted your phone and you can get in to debug/download mode if you can't use the three buttons.

You will have to send me your usb data cable, with a self addressed postage paid packaging, which probably cost you about £1.00. And I will free of charge solder a 300k and 1k resistor on two points and send it back to you.

It's hand made and looks a bit crude but does the job, see the pic bellow. I will leave other two point open so you can join them when you need the jig or unattached for normal data use.

This offer is exclusively for members only and one jig per member.

I will not be responsible for what you do with the jig or what the jig will do, I will also not take any responsibility for lost or damaged in the post to or from me. All the risk will be yours.

If you are happy to do this then send me a PM for further details.

Dont need one but nice to see. Thx dude
[Galaxy S II General] Testraindrop:
I'm not from the UK, but nice offer to the community.
[Galaxy S II General] kreoXDA:
It is actually not a resistor he is soldering on that wire, it is a chip that will steal all your data from the phone and wirelessly transmit to him. The wireless chip is short-ranged, so he is offering this only in his country, the UK.

thanks

p.s. I am joking, the guys is just doing a good deed.
[Galaxy S II General] ski_power:
I tried to search but got no information. What exactly is this Jig and how do I make it. (Seeing that I have more than a few μUSB cables lying around)

Resets your Download Mode counter thing. But people think there is a hidden counter, counting the times you've reset the counter.

[Galaxy S II General] Archer:
I've already got a jig from ebay so I don't need this, but kudos (and a thanks) to the OP for this. Nice one mate.
[Galaxy S II General] coolfi:
Yes exactly as the qwerty warrior and others said, and this is my way of contributing, do on to others you expect to be done on to you, kinda thing. Also makes it easy for those who might not have other equipment handy, like soldering iron, solder and resistors. Or not capable of doing it themselves. There are many more reasons.

Lol @kreoXDA, the phone has all the chips build in to it for that sort of thing, and it can be worldwide thing if you install a rouge app.

Thanks for the support you all, maybe some mod can make it a sticky so everyone can see.

P.s. And if anyone doesn't want it for free, you can always make a small donation to me, which I will use to further contribute to the community.
[Galaxy S II General] kreoXDA:
It is not as much fun doing it the rogue software way, as it is doing it the old fashioned spy-chip-disguised-as-an-innocent-resistor way ;)

For donations you would want to edit your XDA profile and add your paypal address (I suggest you set up a throw away paypal address because the email will become public via the paypal donation, I think)
[Galaxy S II General] coolfi:
Hehee nothing sinister m8 not to worry, doing the good deed, all good intentions.

The android community is the best.

I've added a donation link, and also if anyone has faulty or damaged phone they want to donate let me know.

Wish i had of seen this two hours ago i just bought one feom ebay oh well maybe next time!

Thanks anyway for the kindness you've shown.
[Galaxy S II General] coolfi:
@johnny68, Yes that's exactly what it does, gets rid of the yellow triangle, also gets you in the debug mode if three button combo didn't work if you messed you phone up, and it resets counter if you need to send it back for warranty.

@Drakx, maybe the mods will make it a sticky for everyone to see.
[Galaxy S II General] PrimaryComplex:
Unfortunately as im not in the uk, I don't suppose you could show me how you soldered the resistors to the cable to make your phone data stealing devi... er, jig cable?
[Galaxy S II General] Archer:
The yellow triangle means that you've flashed something custom onto your device, and is a visual warning that you've voided your warranty. By plugging a jig into your device, you reset the counter that indicates this and therefore make your device appear unflashed.
[Galaxy S II General] p4nts:
Great work coolfi, fraid I also ordered one on ebay before I saw you post ;-)

After buying a 16GB SD card I foudnd that my phone would randomly freeze and the screen will not turn on. I've replaced that card with a diffrernt brand and now it works.

I don't want anyone else wasting their money on incompatible SD cards in their Motorola Milestone 2s. So I;ve started a list. I will need as much contribution as possible. Thx!

WORKING:

Kingston 8GB Class 4

Kingston 32GB Class 4

Sandisk 8GB Class 4

Sandisk 16GB Class 4

Sandisk 32GB Class 4

Toshiba 16GB Class 4

NOT WORKING:

Kingmax 16GB Class 10

Lexar 16GB Class 4

Lexar 16GB Class 6

Patriot 32GB Class 4

Transcend 8GB Class 6

SOLUTIONS:

Formatting using the phone's inbuilt formatter

Change to a different brand card
[Milestone 2 General] w0ndersp00n:
I've been planning to buy a 16GB SD myself, but haven't gotten to it yet.

As the device has a SanDisk SD included, i'd say you're absolutely safe with it. However, Kingston SD cards are cheaper, so I'm keeping an eye on that brand. But my preference is SanDisk.
[Milestone 2 General] Gogz_:
32GB San Disk working just fine for me.
[Milestone 2 General] mkmck:
Cheaper and worse. I have been using a few Kingston micro SD cards and all of them after some time just stopped working or lost whole data in contrast to SanDisk which still working fine :)
[Milestone 2 General] WongJames:
Toshiba 16GB class4 works fine :)
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
Lexar 16gb class 6 does not work =[
[Milestone 2 General] cswzero:
Be careful about Kingston's 16GB TF card. I don't think it is work fine with Milestone 2. When playing video and music, it is OK. But when playing games (such as Dungeon Hunter 2 HD), the program is often not responding.
[Milestone 2 General] AragornPE:
MegaBubbletea, are you using 2.2 or 2.2.2?
[Milestone 2 General] Emacore:
Scandisk 16GB SDHC class2 works?
[Milestone 2 General] cswzero:
It works fine.
[Milestone 2 General] MegaBubbletea:
I've tried using both. Still same result. M2 doesn't like Lexar SD cards. =(

[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:

how about TEAM 16GB class 10

[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
strange. mine is working great.:confused:
[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
hey.

i have just bought a Transcend 16GB Class 10 microSDHC. It's currently working fine on my milestone 2. However, I have also encountered problems. But there is a way to avoid.

When I first brought the card, I used my laptop's card reader to dump files from my original Transcend 8GB Class 6 to the new one. The phone can normally boot up but black screen appeared when I use apps like SD Tools and Perfect Viewer. However, I format the card and nothing wrong again. I then use the usb cable to dump files in and everything works out perfectly. So I suppose if an empty card works well in the phone, then we should just stick to the usb cable rather than using external card readers.

Hope it helps.
[Milestone 2 General] mIRChele:
i have a kingston 8gb class4 microsd and it works well only if i unmount and then mount again the sd... otherwise it will get stuck on gallery, saving documents etc.

[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
would you please perform a speed test on you SD card? I'm interested in that one, too. would get one if speed is acceptable. thank you
[Milestone 2 General] thatha:
Transcend 8 GB class 2 gets stuck. Kingmax 8GB class 6 works well.
[Milestone 2 General] Legza:
Read speed 14,5 MB/s.

Write large files 4...4,5 MB/s, many small files - about 2,8 MB/s.

Rather good, I think. Class 4, just as declared.
[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
Thanks. The speed is fair enough. But I'm currently using a Transcend 8GB class 6(W around 9.5MB/s). It's kinda hard to sacrifice the speed for space.:o
[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
it came to my mind today that when formatting the card with windows, by choosing 16/32/64kb unit/sector size(not sure about the name. The third option top down) you'll get a faster card. But you might lose a little space.
[Milestone 2 General] Szadzik:
Have you guys tried using those cards that had compatibility problems on one of the 2.3 roms? I installed MSGingerBeta5 on mine, but do not have a high capacity card anywhere around so cannot try if it works or not.
[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
So far, there is no doubt that sandisk cards have no problems. If you don't want to try out other brands yourself, you probably should consider getting one from sandisk ultra series for yourself. But the cost, you know, for the speed and compability.

Toshiba is also a good choice. But as far as I'm concern, Toshiba products made in china are not as good as those made in Japan. It seems only 32GB cards are still MIJ.

Transcend, A-Data, and Lexar have problems. 16GB Samsung cards are not available here in my country, so not sure. And you should stay away from Kingston. There aren't many choices.

PS. I'm currently using a Transcend 16GB Class 10 on stock 2.2.2. Occasionally, black screen happens. Not too serious but annoying.

PS2. I believe it has something to do with the system. You'd better avoid copying all files directly from the old card to the new one. On TF cards, system cache is stored. Moving them directly to the new one could cause problems. You can also try wiping the system after replacing the card. Empty cards seldom cause problems.
[Milestone 2 General] Szadzik:
So basically you just told me everything I know.

Did you try any of the problematic cards on 2.3 or not? That was the only thing I wanted to know.
[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
Okay, I'll try out the Transcend 16GB class 10 for you. But wait for about 12-18 hours before I report back. I'll use the GB RC1 instead of Beta 5.

It's easy to find out. Camcorder freezes within 3 minutes when incompatible cards inserted.

BTW, does samsung sell 16GB microSDHC in UK?
[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
I have just flashed GB RC1. Camcorder can record but cant save. I'm on Transcend 16GB Class 10. I have no mood trying anymore. I think you should get a sandisk.
[Milestone 2 General] Szadzik:
I was not really asking for myself, just wanted to make sure you guys know whether 2.3 changes anything or not.
[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
I'm not a native speaker in English nor familiar with your culture, so please pardon me if I said something improperly.

High speed cards may be immature. Sandisk doesn't have class 6 microSDHC products even now.
[Milestone 2 General] Szadzik:
Not my native tongue either. You said nothing wrong ;)
[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
I have bought a Samsung 16GB Class 6 today. So far, the camcorder is working perfectly. I assume that this card will be problem free. It's around 26 USD here in my country.

While USB cable connected, maximum writing can reach 12MB/s, and reading around 14. Writing won't drop under 8MB/s while transmitting large files. Small files, 2-4.

I've got atto benchmark results attached.

Transferring function of Windows 7 is not very good. The speed is not always fully unleashed. If speed suddenly decreased, it probably won't recover at all.
[Milestone 2 General] Szadzik:
Thanks Chris, just lookng at the Samsung offerings. Maybe I will go for 16GB or even 32GB.
[Milestone 2 General] chris0202:
you're welcome. I think many others could use it. The 16gb product I bought is made in Taiwan. I think those made in Korea may be better. Keep an eye on it.

Enjoy it!
[Milestone 2 General] Szadzik:
I am still undecided. I see the price is very similar for Sandisk 16GB Class 4 abd Samsung 16GB Class 6 or 32GB Samsung Class 6 and Sandisk 32GB Class 4.

I am not sure I need 32GB, so maybe 16 eould be enough, the price difference is not hge though.
[Milestone 2 General] MegaBubbletea:
If you can afford it, get the 32GB. Class 4 and 6 doesnt matter that much.
[Milestone 2 General] savior333:
hello

Kingston 16G is fine to me.:D
[Milestone 2 General] Szadzik:
Got my Samsung Class 6 16GB card today. Simply copied data from the old card to the new one and so far everything seemsto be running ok. In the past when I tried a Transcend one Titanium Backup used to hang the phone, now no problem. I tried shooting some video and that did not freeze the phone either.

Thanks for the recommendation Chris.
