[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mega_bite:
I've had this bug for a month. It was really random as to when, but it would do the loop and get hot. I posted on the Android bug report.

initially I thought its was a battery problem. But it was an app problem. I've moved most apps to my phone rather than SD. But I'm now running out of space.

Can apps be installed to internal SD? Don't think so, but thought I'd check.

Can the programs storage be made larger?

Thanks

Seems like I have found a solution.

Sorry for being late. I guess I have found a simple solution to this. I used startup auditor to disable some of the leas important apps from starting up right after boot and it worked out quite well for me. System booted fine, memory scanned fully and even after quite some time no reboot.

Now I am a new comer here. I am using Samsung galaxy y (quite a low-end phone, huh?), stock ROM, gingerbread 2.3.5 . I was having the same problem. So after looking around for a while I applied my own noob brain. It worked for me so I thought I should post it here. Now I am not sure if it's gonna work for its bigger bros like SGS2 and Droid but I would be glad to know if it works for someone.

App on SD reboot bug.

Look up issue 25563 on the Android issue list. (I can't post links yet.)

There is some useful information here.

It happens as you say, on my phone too. LG-LS840 Viper. Stock ROM (New phone, I'm waiting for some custom ROMs.)

It seems to be an IO timing issue, the IO gets overloaded, and the OS starts throwing errors.

It would seem Google knows about this, or should know. It may be up to the user base, to fix the issue in a custom ROM.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mega_bite:
Just an update.

I'm using resurrection room (ics)

Got 300 apps, half installed on internal SD, no problem. I've no apps installed on micro sd. no problems so far.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TiboQc:
Same Problem

I have the same problem.

Moved all my movable apps to SD this morning: infinite reboot

Darky ROM 10.4.2 with Android 2.3.6

Moved 118 apps with a .android_secure folder size of 915MB

On a Samsung Galaxy S (I-9000M).

Removing the SD card stops the rebooting (but most of my apps are not there anymore, of course).

I think I'm gonna try and re-install most apps on the phone (while having the SD card removed, or simply uninstall all the games, as I can re-install them later).

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] curioct:
You don't need to reinstall / in install anything.

Move enough of the files out of the folder so the phone boots ok (my limit seemed about 50ish at 5-600MB) then move some back to the phone personally I moved them all.

Then create a Linux ext4 partition on your card (mines 10GB on a 64GB card) and link your apps on to that using the wonderful link2sd app (blue icon on market), never suffer this problem again and better yet no need to reinstall apps when you change phones/roms (except your system apps of course but you can use links for that as well) all you do is root and re link simple.

I have about 5 apps that won't work this way.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g0rnex:
Having the same problem.

I have HTC chacha running CM7. My phone reboots when I install an app.

Did not read the whole thread but is there a good fix for this problem?

thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsngfrce:
I posted this recently on the Google Android thread ( code.google.com/p/android/issues/de...ot&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars ) about this issue and figured it might be worth repeating here...

I already reported that I was experiencing this issue on my Epic 4G Touch earlier here. It is obvious that Google has no intention of acknowledging or fixing this issue, so all we can do is figure out how to best deal with it.

Link2SD is one option. Unfortunately, Link2SD cannot recognize the 2nd SD card partion on the Epic 4G Touch, and the developer appears to have no interest in fixing this despite my best efforts. Myself and another E4GT user even offered to pay $20 each for a working version of this free program, but apparently he is just not interested. Oh well...

Using a custom ROM which has this issue fixed is another option. I am using a stock rooted ROM and really am not personally interested in using a custom ROM.

The only remaining option I know of is to stay underneath the app number and/or size transfered to your SD Card that will start your phone rebooting. For this reason, I think it is very helpful for users to report at what point their phone starts rebooting, which varies greatly in this thread.

Since I first reported this problem, I removed all the apps from my SD Card (which required getting rid of a lot of them entirely, since they won't fit on the phone). I have only been transferring game apps (with a very few large app exceptions) to my SD Card since then (using DroidSail Super for no particular reason). I have tried to be careful about transferring too many apps to my SD card without rebooting to ensure I haven't reached the phones reboot point.

Finally, today, my phone started reboot looping again. Each time, I would quickly run DroidSail Super and move the newest app that had been transfered to the SD card back to the phone, which I was able to do successfully before the phone rebooted. After moving 2 apps back to the phone I seem to be stable again.

For recerence purposes, my Epic 4G Touch now has 90 files in 80 folders with a total size of 460.19 MB in the ASEC folder. I don't know if I have reached a size or number limit, but this appears to be the approximate limit for my phone.

Hopefully this will help people dealing with this issue, which seriously sucks!

ADDITIONAL OPINION: People seem to think this issue is very common, I don't think that is true. This issue only effects those of us weirdos that like to have TOO MANY apps installed on our phones. This issue will never affect the average user. I'm not excusing by any means, but I think this is largely why Google has ignored the issue.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g0rnex:
thanks for this respons, explains alot.

I am such a guy with alot of apps on my sd card using CM7 and S2E on my HTC Chacha. The weard thing is. I started having reboots when installing apps after my phone crashed. I formated and repartitioned my SD card. put back Nandroid backup wich worked fine before. But now with the reboots when installing apps. So i don't think I have too many apps, got only 50 apps atm..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsngfrce:
g0rnex, I don't know if this is an option for you or your phone, but it's reported in the thread I mentioned that this issue has been fixed in Cyanogenmod 9.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragon135:
Anyone confirms this issue is fixed in 4.0.4?

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragon135:
OK guys, Good News. I think this problem is solved in 4.0.4.

I tried LPM stock ROM and rooted stock kernel.

I moved 134 application linked from Link2SD to sd card, the size is 2.3GB (there is a couple of soft reboots when moving them to sd card).

Rebooting 15 times and wait 5 minutes for each: no reboot problem at all.

But as always like in 2.3.4 or GB versions before, sometimes some sd card application is missing between each reboot, which is normal.

I decided to keep using Link2SD and relinked back sd card applications. I can get more free space in internal storage because the dalvik cache can be linked too, and no problems with widgets, services when linked.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3c:
Alternative to Link2SD

You may now have an alternative to Link2SD with Android Tuner app (see my signature).

A Link2SD basic feature has been added in beta version 0.3.0 which is used when app2sd is not available. From beta 0.3.1 link2sd option can be forced to replace the app2sd option, thus allowing to link apps to SD instead of moving them using OS feature.

If 0.3.1 has not yet been released, please install app anyway and send a support request (from app settings at the bottom) and add a note about this post.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmetek:
3c what version is 0.30/0.31?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3c:
Current published version is Android Tuner beta version 0.3.0 which uses app2sd if available, link2sd otherwise.

Version 0.3.1 is being tested, awaiting test results before publishing. 0.3.1 has an option to force link2sd instead of app2sd feature.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsngfrce:
Testing 0.3.1 on my Epic 4G Touch and link2sd functionality works through Android Tuner! 3c, you are my hero! :thumbup:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Technowolf:
I too had the same problem, I use Apps2SD to move the apps to SD Card, the most important part the apps which are listed that it can be moved to SD and has a SD card Icon, should not be moved, it causes these boot loops and some widgets not to work.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zmix:
This was fixed in Android 4.0.4.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsngfrce:
I have heard people say it was and say it wasn't... do you know of anywhere 'official' that this is documented or any threads where this is conclusively documented? Old habits die hard... ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zmix:
Well, I can't guarantee. I installed a custom ROM with 4.0.4 on my HTC One V tonight, so I guess I know more later, since now I am installing apps ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 23732:
I have stock 4.0.4, with Siyah kernel and I experience random reboots. But I think it is application specific, since I don't have any applications on the external SD card.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zmix:
There is a lot of reports about problems with random reboots scattered all over the internet. This thread is about random reboots, that happen, after a large number of applications (number varies from device to device, as it seems, usually >130) has been installed on the SDcard. If you don't have an SDcard, then your problem must be something else.

So, I have experienced strong lagging after rebooting my device. And soon, OH NOOOHHHH, it started again, with the constant reboots. This is inspite of having 4.0.4 (as part of the Amazing Sense v1.2) installed. However, something is different. While before the CPU would be always at max. speed, now it varies in speed. Maybe due to a different bug, that I trigger now or due to some different behaviour of how Amazing Sense behaves.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ripper4590:
My problems exactly identical!

- Power On then phone will reboot after some 2-5 minutes idle and again reboot infinitely so I cannot use my phone at all.

- If I removed my external SD Card, no more reboot.

- Or if I delete some amount of .asec files in ".android_secure" folder (where the app in sd card is saved) in the external SD Card no more reboot.

On a Samsung Galaxy Ace - Gingerbread 2.3.6.

Please help!!!
[Motorola Triumph] Bruce777:
Hey guys and gals, Please advise.

I've been a Sprint customer for 2 years my contract is up. Had an HTC hero which was an amazing phone considering it's age.

I bought 2 VM phones; the optimus V for the wife, and the Motorola Triumph for me. Owneed them both for 12 hours and I'm a bit concerned.

I've rooted them both and removed some bloat. I looked online and see nothing but praise for the optimus V and the MT looks like a lemon based on reviews! I noticed some lag on the touchscreen (I tried to ignore it :) but the killer is the GPS, the optimus found location in 5 seconds, and the MT was still searching after 5 minutes.

Should I return this thing? Is it a software problem or hardware? Will a custom ROM help?

Please tell me if i should exchange it for the optimus.
[Motorola Triumph] chairshot215:
Had the same feeling back in August when I purchased the phone. Do yourself a favor and install CM7. You will notice an insane difference; it’s more like owning an entirely different phone. That thing they call an operating system that’s installed out of the box is an insult to both the user and the phones hardware which is actually very good. It took me a few weeks to get the guts to install the Rom but it came to either that or throw the thing in the Delaware. Now a days you could not rip the device from my cold dead hands. I use the TG reloaded build and if you’re not familiar with Roms CM7 is for the most part the closest thing you can get to striate up Google's Gingerbread with a few tweaks and no Virgin Bloatware. Anyhow with the correct software the Triumph is a beast and runs circles around some of my friends higher end phones using their stock Roms. Also, the processor used on the Triumph is used in other devices as a 1.4g processors, including a few tablets so don’t be afraid to crank it up a notch or two. Also the TG Reloaded edition uses a 64 MHz minimum frequency when idle compared to the 246 MHz minimum used in the stock Rom, literally doubles the battery life.
[Motorola Triumph] Whyzor:
Yes, give the CM7 TG-Reloaded ROM a try. The Motorola Triumph is based on Huawei Ideos X6 reference design, which is sold as different variants world-wide. The hardware is very capable, but either the Motorola people or those responsible for getting it to work on VM were very sloppy, so all the bugs in stock ROM. Most have been addressed in CM7, but still some remain.

As for the better battery life, the 61 mhz low freq helps only a little, other factors include less junk running in the background, battery-optimized interactive governor, and wakelock bugs in the stock kernel that prevent phone from entering deep sleep mode (common, but hard to track problem on a lot of Android phones).
[Motorola Triumph] church:
I love my MT running miui oc@1.6 there's a agps fix somewhere on this site. I personal don't have any issues with this phone
[Motorola Triumph] Bruce777:
Thanks for the replies.

I agree that CM7 makes this phone waaaayyy smoother than stock. I still get an occasional lag on the touchscreen and the 4 "buttons" on the bottom are sometimes unresponsive; but this thing is awesome. The only reason the Optimus V is more popular is because it's cheaper. The MT is sexy :^)

The thing I miss from my HTC Hero was the ease of wireless tethering. I didn't really use it much, but it was nice to know I could run any piece of hardware without any mods.

Does the CM7 TG reloaded ROM have an OC kernel built in or do I need to flash one?
[Motorola Triumph] Whyzor:
I may be close to fixing the touchscreen issue, it bugs me too. CM7 allows built-in wireless tethering, and you can add it to be a quick toggle in the notification bar, along with other options. OC kernel is built-in, check out the first post on the ROM thread to read up about all the features.
[Motorola Triumph] Bruce777:
Needless to say I NO longer have buyers remorse!

Yes, I saw the wireless tethering options...I tried multiple time to initialize it, but my laptop would not connect. Any threads you could send me to? (yes I did look in the ROM thread :^)

thanks
[Motorola Triumph] Whyzor:
The first few times I tried to connect it may take a long time for the client (PC) to recognize and go through to the internet, give it a few minutes & try to refresh a webpage. It works for me & others.
[Motorola Triumph] agentc13:
Wireless tethering worked fine for me when I tested it (only tried it to make sure it worked). I didn't have to do anything special to make it work.
[Motorola Triumph] Bruce777:
I was really excited when you said the CM7 native wifi tether worked...but I couldn't get it to :(

I even factory reset and wiped everything to make sure it was a fresh attempt. Still nothing. Both my PC and Hp touchpad can find the signal but neither connect/keep the connection. After attempting the connection (and saying it's connected for around 3 seconds) the touchpad will no longer reads the wifi signal.

Any threads on this for me to research? I looked to no avail.
[Motorola Triumph] Bruce777:
Nevermind, I just tried wireless tether for root users, after about 10 attempts with the native app, and it works! Better to be lucky than good.

Now...has anyone had any luck getting Sprint visual voicemail to work on this thing? :^) Mine half works , I can compose messages to myself but any calls wont actually work.

thanks again for the replies people. We SHOULDN'T be in 'low activity" section
[Motorola Triumph] marc12868:
VM doesn't support 3rd party Voicemails so getting a visual one may not work... You can ask VM about it and see if they can let you but it may just be a network thing with them...

And the MT is in a low activity section because no one is here there all at android forums...
[Motorola Triumph] wonshikee:
Triumph has a few hardware issues that won't go away, like GPS and touch response puking randomly.

Also while CM7 does bring extra functionality, it is less stable than stock.

Optimus V is basically the only solid prepaid phone on VM.

Hopefully Sprint learned their lesson to not rebrand POS phones and instead, use existing phones that have proven themselves. We will likely see much better phones by end of 2012 based on what was said at CES '12, so just hang tight.
[Motorola Triumph] marc12868:
Yea... by the end of 2012, well its the beginning right now and if they don't start getting newer phones, I may have to switch to another company... I heard Straight Talk is getting the LG Optimus 2X so that may be incentive enough for me. VM needs to get a dual core and not just keep bringing in more and more phones that have 600mhz or 800mhz processors with 3 inch screens...
[Motorola Triumph] wonshikee:
Yeah that phone looks really promising, but ST is expensive - paying $25 on VM vs $45 for ST, unless you need the higher end plan on VM anyway.

If you're willing to go high end, you can grab a Nexus/GS2 and use it on tmobile's prepaid instead, it's what I'm doing current with TMO's $30/mo plan.
[Motorola Triumph] marc12868:
So with TMO's prepaid you can use any TMO phone then?
[Motorola Triumph] dwcasey:
That's what I've heard. If you buy a used/unlocked TMO phone, you can get the TMO activation kit for something like $7 ( it's just a SIM ) and put it in your phone and your good.

This is what I'm thinking about doing myself. I get ok coverage with VM on my LGOV, but not great.

My wife has a TMO Exhibit2-4g and it's a great phone and the service is good as well. She's on the $50/month plan, I'll opt for the $30 I think.
[Motorola Triumph] marc12868:
Yea I did some looking and youbcan use any t-mo phone. I'm thinking Akita switching over too. $30 for 5gb of 4g and unlimited texting is good deal. I don't even talk on the phone for minutes to matter lol. Vm service is just starting to annoy me :/
[Motorola Triumph] kingnba6:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaun:
I can't find a solution to this on the forum so hopefully someone here can advise me.

I can get into download mode, the phone has stock JVQ on it, i have installed the galaxy s drivers, updated kies to make sure the drivers are the latest (I've also installed the drivers from a standalone file - version 1.3.450.0).

I have used Odin v1.7 and 1.85 both show no sign of the phone.

I recently formatted the SD card and the USB portion using the phone's in built function... that may be the issue... can anyone suggest what files are missing from the phone to get it recognised in download mode?

I'm currently downloading the Nexus S drivers but I ain't too hopeful.

Any suggestions would be really appreciated!! Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaun:
Ok so somehow the phone got itself recognised, i was installing the Android SDK and the Java JDK to see if i could install the nexus s drivers and at some stage (after JDK was installed) i uplugged the phone from my computer and heard a beep that said i'd disconnected something...

I tried Odin again and it worked... froze at setup connection but took the battery out and it is now downloading the magic... the internet is amazing!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaun:
ok so now it's bootlooping, can't figure it out. Anyone got any suggestions? I get JVQ installed and it's rooted then when I try flash the latest ICS RC13 it goes into bootloop

Edit: Ok so it seems that bootlooping is an issue a few people are seeing. Anyone got any suggestions on how to address it? the two I have are

1. just let it boot loop for 20 mins and it might fix itself

2. don't wipe the dalvik/cache....

anything else?
