try wiping your partitions when flashing rom. there might be a corrupted system file or something
[HTC Incredible S] B3rz3rk3r:
I've always fully wiped /data /cache and the dalvik cache when flashing new ROMs since I read that it's safest to do that from a ROM reliability standpoint.
[HTC Incredible S] naathaanb96:
try format everything else except sd card in the list
[HTC Incredible S] B3rz3rk3r:
I've formatted all partitions except SDcard and am still able to reproduce the reboot by scrolling in google maps for 10-15 seconds.

I should mention that the reboots are not limited to this, it will also reboot during phone calls or other general app usage, but no where near as frequently, and it is not reproducible like the GMaps reboot.
[HTC Incredible S] naathaanb96:
Try clearing maps data. Are you on the new just released maps? Because the new Google earth completely froze my phone once I found my house:3
[HTC Incredible S] B3rz3rk3r:
I have cleared maps cache and downloaded a map for offline use as well, same problem is present. I have the latest Gmaps but the problem was reproducible well before this as well.

I don't think maps is the problem since it happens with old versions of maps too; but rather causes the phone to use something else, which causes the reboot.

Is there a way to see the kernel logs after a crash like on desktop linux?
[HTC Incredible S] naathaanb96:
Do a search mate. There's a way to get a logcat of a crash just not exactly sure how to do it
[HTC Incredible S] saksoba:
If full wipe doesn't work. then try to change your SD card. Without backup your data. Just to see if reboot occur again.

This suggestion maybe sound stupid, at least, you can give a try :cowboy:
[HTC Incredible S] WILLI120:
Backup your SD-Card on your computer and wipe/format it afterwards (FAT32). Maybe that helps...
[HTC Incredible S] amitizle:
Radio

My guess is that the issue is Radio related. What's your version?
[HTC Incredible S] B3rz3rk3r:
I have wiped all partitions (save for the SDCard) and reinstalled IceColdSandwich 8.1.1 and have currently gone over 24hrs without a reboot, even trying to force one using the GMaps scroll.

Radio is: 20.2810.30.085AU_3805.06.0316_M

I would link to a pic showing all the info but it seems I'm not allowed.

[HTC Incredible S] seek4:
Hi, sorry for breaking in, but seems like I have a somehow similar problem with my Incredible s::o

The phone starts up fine, but will run only for 1-5 minutes before spontaneously rebooting when on battery power.. This never happens when connected to PC or charger, and phone seems to stay alive "forever" in Bootloader (Revolutionary-screen), but leaving that even for Recovery does the "trick", and again it will reboot after a short while. :crying:

Doesn't matter if SD and Simm are inserted or not!

Have tried all I can think of:

Fix permissions, different roms (GingerBread (stock/ some other) and Ice Cream Sandwich (IceColdSandwich)), of course cleared and formatted all partitions, tried different Recovery's (currently Touch Recovery) and radios (S-OFF'ed to do this after problem started), even have heat-gunned:cowboy: soldering for battery-connectors (yes cleaned connections as well), and heated a little where charger and battery seems to "relate", and have also tried another battery with similar 4-point connection (works, but same same) so what else to do??:eek:

The problem started two days after replacing a smashed digitizer with new one (from eBay), and after a two hour car-trip with GPS and Navigate on, but no charger, in a hot front-window; the phone just exactly reached to run flat out of power, and when I recharged it shortly after arrival, the "fun" began..

It clearly looks like a battery problem, but the battery seems in perfect condition. Could it be the unoriginal (cheap) digitizer? Mind you the phone worked flawlessly for two days with that ting..(?) Or should I invest in a new battery even so (please see pic.)?:confused:

Again sorry for intruding the string, but have searched a lot without finding anything more similar, and didn't want to open a new string for this.. Maybe this one will come to live again, with a new post... :fingers-crossed:

Greetings from Denmark, and please HELP!:cyclops:
[HTC Incredible S] B3rz3rk3r:
Your problem sounds like its hardware based. I was unable to prevent the phone from rebooting and so have gone back to CyanogenMod 7.2 where the frequent reboots do not occur.
[HTC Incredible S] seek4:
Thanks for your quick reply mate!:)

This http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1553654 one? I'm back to my old S-E X10i, so anything is worth trying.. Which BB and kernel do you use for that iso?
[HTC Incredible S] seek4:
Well thanks again for a plausible suggestion, but just now tried my guess (from post here above), and sadly still no go! Didn't even let me finish Setup (after installing Gaps) before rebooting itself ..

Already had a thought about HW power management myself, but kinda fought it off, as the idea didn't become me, however that probably is the thing..

Who knows a little something about the s710e PCB, to guide me messing the right thing(s)??:D
[HTC Incredible S] B3rz3rk3r:
There is a stable release of CM 7.2 out now on the official site. I would provide you a link but I'm not allowed to yet.

I would suggest checking the MD5 sum and full wipe before installing it. If you are still having troubles then I would look at the hardware as the problem.
[HTC Incredible S] seek4:
Once again tanks! Found it and tried it (I always do full wipe between roms), unfortunately still same result.. But what MD5 sum am I supposed to check?? (Where, how?):confused::confused:
[HTC Incredible S] vladabiber:
Mate, your problem is obviously hardware-related. You should go to htc service center if you want your device to run again.
[HTC Incredible S] B3rz3rk3r:
Agreed.

Now and again you can get a bad download, which is why you check the MD5 sum against the orginal, but if this is happening with every ROM you use, plus the fact that you have already replaced parts on your phone with non-original hardware, leads me to the conclusion that you have a hardware defect.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kr1pt:
Hi. Some guy offered me iPad2 16GB WiFi + 3G in exchange for my Samsung Galaxy S2. He wants S2. iPad2 is brand-new, unused while my S2 is used for 6 months (I said it's opened but not used :D)

Is exchange worth?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] msherman123:
When I use the stock mail app, or k9, for my pop account I get the mail just fine. However when I download the mail on my desktop the mail on my phone disappears. I'd like it to stay on my phone. I have turned sync off for that account and leaving the mail on server is not an option. Is there a setting I am missing to tell it to retain a local copy on my phone or is this just not supported?

I feel a bit stupid not finding it ;-) anyone help out?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] stevesprivateaccount:
Sounds like it might be your desktop mail application that is taking it off the server, not your phone. Have you changed your desktop mail app at all? I'd double check its settings, and make sure under the advanced, or account options on your desktop mail client, that don't delete from server, or the such is checked.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] msherman123:
My desktop app does indeed download it off the server. I wanted to see if there was a way to keep the copy on my phone even when this happens. I was hoping turning off sync would do this. I had this ability on the iphone, so just looking for something similar.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lither:
I'm interested in Gooapple or Goophone as both are similar but which one is better? Or is there any others that are better than the both that I've listed

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sm_abu:
Hi there. Today I received one update for my phone. Version changed from dxlp9 to dxlpb but still 4.03. Now changing brightness via notification bar doesn't work. Please help me to solve
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
Try by going to Settings - Display - Brightness and adjusting it there. If no luck, try a different ROM or perhaps a hardware problem?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sm_abu:
No was working before upgrade
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
Well the LPB build you are on now is very old, even LP9 is fairly old. Go to sammobile.com and flash a newer ICS ROM such as LPG and try again.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Make sure brightness isn't set to auto. If auto brightness is turned on, you won't be able to swipe the notification bar to adjust brightness.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sm_abu:
Lpb was given update today only.

Auto brightness is of only
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Maybe you have to long press on the notification bar for a slightly longer period of time on DXLPB in order for the brightness adjust to register?

Sorry, I'm not running DXLPB, so I'm just guessing.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ras123ras2003:
On LPW doesn't working either

I hv the LPW and the brightness control by status bar is not working
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sm_abu:
I think this is the problem with the

Firmware? Any one facing this issue?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C56X:
I too have noticed the brightness issue. Till yesterday, I used to turn the brightness all the way down when I was home, and switched to AUTO when outside; however, today, with brightness down, I have noticed that the screen is not "as bright" as it used to be. I then tried AUTO, again nothing.

I had to go and manually increase the brightness levels.

Seems odd, considering that I never updated anything on the phone :confused:

Build on my phone: XWLP7

When I click on check for updates, I get an error message "Failed to update firmware due to a network or server problem, or try using PC Kies later".

Should I use PC Kies to check for an update, or is it better to update via phone?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sm_abu:
You can update with a,wifi if not un check update via wifi only and update via 3G network
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elquango:
i had an update on my phone to 4.04.

since then the notification bar brightness doesnt work.

what a load of balls

what kind of stupid update is that? making it less user friendly
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skriz87:
Seems samsung have remove this function in latest firmware: with XWLPF it work, but with UHLPS is not working anymore...

Band thing for me, btw with jkay i can have the brightness bar into the notification area, but its not the same ...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
The function has been removed in 4.0.4 due to some reasons.

Download "lux" from market, it gives that function too

Swyped from my Samsung Galaxy SII
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VanillaCracker:
They most likely took out the feature. I know that on Samsung Galaxy SII (I-777) they took out the change brightness from notification bar feature when going from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4. Not sure why, but they removed it. It's probably the same case with your update, even if it's not an update to 4.0.4. Sorry bout that mate, just root your phone, you can probably find a rom just like stock but with more options, potentially better battery life, and if enough people miss it, I'm sure someone will, or has already, re-implemented the status bar brightness adjustment.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elquango:
thanks. its a ****ing ridiculous change.

im sick of updating now as it only ever seems to make things worse and not better.

also this piece of **** keeps putting auto brightness on when i have switched it off. does anyone know how to fix that?

oh and tried that lux app. its just an auto brightness app. not a screen brightness adjuster on the notification bar

ive got this which does the job

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.DisplayBrightness&hl=en

still annoying that i have to download something to fix a problem that they pointlessly ballsed up

[HTC One X] malcg:
Any advice please, i bought a new HTC one X within three week it went faulty. the thing crashed and when it started up again it had wiped my contacts over the next few days it crashed over and over till i could no longer us it. i sent it back to HTC only to find they dont replace only repair. they did that and now three weeks later its started again, i have been in touch with them and they say they can only reapir it again, anyone any ideas where i can take it to get it fixed right or any other advice would be great

thank you
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
might be worth getting in touch with whoever you bought it from. in the uk the seller is responsible for any faults.

it might also help for more specifics, just saying its crashing doesn't help really.

what exactly is happening?
[HTC One X] LaneyEFC:
He just did lol he can't be more specific than that...

I'd also recommend taking it to where you purchased...

Well i have ht23 hox made in Taiwan but i have no problem with wifi or screen problems very interesting.

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] bleclair:
Saw this on their site this morning:

"This item is no longer available from the seller you selected.

Item Under Review

While this item is available from other marketplace sellers on this page, it is not currently offered by Amazon.com because customers have told us there may be something wrong with our inventory of the item, the way we are shipping it, or the way it's described here. (Thanks for the tip!)

We're working to fix the problem as quickly as possible."

I wonder what's going on... My first one was returned because it had a chunk of plastic or something under the glass, but my second seems okay. (Besides running much too hot for just surfing, reading, etc.)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] martyg7:
The silver version still shows as in stock. Curious.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Itchiee:
You shouldn't have heat issues from just surfing websites or reading, at least I never have on my A700 Silver. It does get a little hot while gaming from the cpu/gpu running full speed, but its not unbearable, and with the way I hold the tablet it doesn't interfere with what I'm doing. I do run a task manager to kill the 12-15 programs running that I never use, and have rooted to remove the bloatware that I'll never need. Its been a great tablet so far... I hope you get this resolved.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Beknatok:
Interesting.

Well, mine's the Silver one but aside from different colored casings, they are identical.

Hmm...
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] XooLoo:
That's what it says now for both black and silver:
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Beknatok:
:confused:

http://www.amazon.com/Acer-Iconia-A700-10s32u-10-1-Inch-Tablet/dp/B0083PR7NC

Silver still shows as "In Stock. Ships from and sold by Amazon.com."

*shrug*
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] californiarailroader:
Also, Amazon is the ONLY one doing this, let's not jump to conclusions, remember, the new iPad had "heatgate" issues, only to turn out they were more hype than substance.

Edit-This could simply be a case of something in the description being wrong, Amazon has done this with other products (ie.the Pentax K-5, one of THE best DSLR's out there), only to have them go back on sale soon after.

http://us-store.acer.com/category.aspx?catid=112&src=home_bnr

Acer themselves is still selling them, if there is an issue I am sure they'll be the first to pull an item.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] XooLoo:
Wow! They must've JUST removed it... only minutes after I went ahead and processed my return authorization and label (long story, but I figured this way I have until 7/23/12 to continue testing it if I have to). Obviously, I did not make up what I quoted as having seen on Amazon's website about the problem... but they must've pulled it down shortly after I saw it... Anyhow, I'll continue playing with my Iconia to see if things have improved any now that I have disabled/removed some of what I thought was unnecessary... Hoping for the best...

===============================================

EDIT: This is really weird! When I search for "Acer A700" and then click on the link, this is what I get:

But when I click on the link you posted here it shows it as available and ready to ship... BUT then from that same page if you click on the part that says "Tablets at Amazon.com. Visit our Tablet Store for the latest arrivals in tablet computers and essential accessories." and then choose A700 from that screen, it again shows it as unavailable! This has got to be some kind of glitch... or maybe I need to clear my browser's cache... :confused:
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] agdroubi:
now there is a seller selling it for 375$ on amazon. :mad:

I paid 450$ :confused:
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] californiarailroader:
It's back for sale from Amazon.

---------- Post added at 10:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 PM ----------

It only shows $449 for me, the $375 seller must have quit.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] bbqtho:
On amazon germany they're holding back the silver one, black's still on regular sale. oO
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] californiarailroader:
That's weird, everything's a go for both of them here in the US.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] kevintangi:
Well... we are all waiting gor official ICS to come to gtab+ , but now google releases new android 4.1...what an unfortunate for us..

We waited for AGES to get ICS, and till now we havent got it yet, i ask, till when we wait for JB?

Cheers :D
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] al16000:
Probably 4-6 months. I saw an article where the reporter reached out to Samsung about updates, and they said they would seek to update their devices as possible. I personally think Google's push to make it available on Nexus and Motorola Xoom will force other manufacturers to provide Jelly Bean quickly if they want to sell their devices in the future.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Graffiti Exploit:
It's not entirely a new huge platform jump of Android(Like Gingerbread to ICS) so it might not take that much time to update. A preview build was given to GN users OTA which is a good sign. I do look forward at the these features though:

Project Butter

Android 4.0 was a major upgrade from 2.3 Gingerbread, bringing a whole new interface and speed improvements. Jelly Bean improves on that, with something Google is calling “Project Butter.” This helps make the whole OS feel 100x faster and smoother, running at an insane 60 FPS.

Home screen customization has also been improved. Widgets will now wrap around the space available to them, so you won’t need to go through the hassle process of moving around icons and widgets.

Offline Voice Dictation

Google has not only made more improvements to the keyboard in Android 4.1 JB, but they’ve also brought offline voice dictation. This means that you won’t need a network connection in order to use voice dictation anymore, unlike Siri voice dictation, which needs a constant connection. Unfortunately, this feature is currently only available in US English, but Google promises that more language support will be coming soon.

The keyboard has also made other vast improvements in predictive text input, meaning that the keyboard thinks about what you are going to type before you even type it.

Notifications

In Android 4.0 ICS, we received the ability to view our notifications from our lockscreen, and access an app right through them. Android 4.1 JB takes this even farther, and allows you to do an action without even accessing the app, all from your notifications window pane.

For example, if someone calls you and you miss it, a notification obviously appears. When you swipe down, you can immediately choose to call the person back, or you can message them if you’d like, all directly from your notification window pane. If you’re currently calling someone and decide to hang up, you can just drag the notification window pane down and end the call from right there. Simple and Easy.

Google has also improved the way Social Networks and 3rd-Party apps are integrated with notifications. If you receive a Google+ photo, you’ll see a preview right from the lockscreen, without even having to access the Google+ app. You can comment and +1 on the photo right from your notification window pane, and quickly get back to what you were doing before.

3rd party developers also have great new features that they can integrate into their apps. Pulse, a popular social news reader, has the ability to show you the days’s top news-just by swiping the notification.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] CrisisCorE:
Now hold on a sec, once we get the Ics sources we should be able to port aosp jb to GT+ ain't I right?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] deolarte:
I think you are right
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] kevintangi:
Hmm.. maybe yes.. just keep hoping.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] th3drow:
I'm going to just come out and say it, JB will probably not happen on the 7+, look at how long it took them to give us ICS with them already having released an ICS tablet almost identical to ours months ago. maybe the tab 2 will get it. But who knows maybe they will screw them too and make a tab 3.

im thinking 90% most likely officially won't ever happen, which is why i'm dropping samsung for the nexus 7
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] kevintangi:
Yeah.. btw i'm slapping my face when seeing the price n performance by nexus 7. Gonna throw 7+ outta house.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] DJPraeses:
I'm tempted too, but the absence of a micro-sd slot is making me reconsider...
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] CrisisCorE:
All we need is ics then we can make this a much better tab than nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] chrisrotolo:
just read that Flash is not supported in JellyBean. Flash Player will be removed from the store August 15th. If you already have it, you will get minor fixes/updates/etc.

Sure I agree flash is old, outdated and a hog. I think they should keep it though.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] prmax:
No micro SD on the Nexus 7? Wow!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] Domino_13:
From what I understand, Flash is only unsupported in the Chrome browser, but you should still be able to use it for other browsers like Dolphin.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] arwilson529:
I'm in the same boat; but regardless I've bought my last Samsung product. Either I learn to deal with the cloud and no microSD storage, or I wait for someone else to come out with a similar product (maybe a 7.7 screen like the upcoming Toshiba Excite).

But no more Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus] kevintangi:
Well i think we cant. The specs in nexus 7 is way too high. And JB is said to improve the cpu and gpu performance ?
