try to enter into recovery TWRP and choose wipe factory and system. then reboot into bootloader (fastboot) and flash recovery and recovery2 with recovery.img from official ROM. then put official's dload into microSD then reboot. it should flash official ROM.

Remove SD card and SIM card then turn off the device. plug the device to a computer via usb and press vol+ and vol- for 30 secs till you get all the yellow text on the screen. now press all buttons power , vol+ , vol- and your device should restart and no more white screen

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] S52Stu:
I've been dealing with random reboots now for a long time. With all this "stable" talk for JB roms I'm starting to wonder if it is just my phone.

I have ran many roms:

Slim Bean

All paranoid aspects of JB

CM10

sky JB

brickbeatz

Every single one the same. Multiple reboots or SOD's everyday at least 2 or 3. And if I'm using the phone extensively this amount could double maybe even triple. Is this normal? Is this something that other people are experiencing?

I have followed all install instructions including changing recoveries if requested by the install (big fan of TWRP but a lot of roms swear by sk8t's CWM)

I have odin'd back to uclf6 took the ota - formatted internal and external SD and is still happening no matter what rom I use.

When I was on ICS for a little I dig get a notification from time to time saying something to the extent of "battery disconnected" or "battery temp too high" and this is what made me start thinking that maybe this is a phone issue.

Has anyone else experienced anything like this? This is my second Skyrocket. First was replaced by warranty because it started just rebooting consistently (may have been a stuck button, but I didn't worry about it).

Any help you guys can give would be greatly appreciated. I do search, and I have tried pretty much everything I have found. Now I'm just frustrated looking for help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
Reboots are not normal with any of the roms you've tried. I've tried a number of roms and haven't experienced any reboots. Sounds like a hardware issue, but others may have different advice.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] liquidzoo:
I've had 2 soft reboots since reinstalling Slim 3.1 (from stock ICS), but that's it. Some ROMs I've tried in the past seemed to have them more often than others, but I haven't been able to nail down exactly why that happens.

Most of them these days are fairly solid and shouldn't be rebooting, especially not as often as you are experiencing. Have you installed a custom kernel? Are you OC/UV? Do you have BBS installed to see if something is preventing deep sleep?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] S52Stu:
Two soft reboots are not bad, but the amount that I have had is way moer than that. I know that some roms are going to be different than others thats why I tried multiple to see.

I don't have better battery stats installed because battery loss isn't really my issue. I have decent battery life (other than the fact that the SOD's and reboots seem to kill 7-10 percent every time they happen. I also never oc/uv always leave stock..

Would BBS tell me what is causing the reboots?

Thanks for both of your inputs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
You had some high battery temp issues. Is your device still running hot? That would cause a reboot. Liquidzoo, you had hot battery issue, could this be similar to what you where experiencing?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] S52Stu:
The high battery temp issues came about right after I odin'd, but that was telling me these things in which I'm not sure that CM10 has a pop up for notification on these things.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
It doesn't but how does the device feel? Does it feel hot. If it gets too hot the phone will shut itself down and reboot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] S52Stu:
Yes the device feels abnormally hot all the time
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
That's most likely why it's rebooting. Now all we have to do is figure out why it's hot. Liquid zoo had similar issues and I think he brought it all the way back to stock to remove some wake locks.

Liquidzoo , any thoughts?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] liquidzoo:
My guess is the temperature is causing the reboots.

Install Better Battery Stats and look at the CPU States. It could very well be that something is preventing deep sleep, which in turn would cause heat and heat would cause shutdown.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] MasterDecker:
I experienced the same thing with my SR. I called up AT&T customer care and told them that this was unacceptable. After a while they sent me a new SGS III. It is most commonly a HW issue, which is what I was experiencing. I explained that to them, and that is what lead them to send me the GS III
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
Cool deal, pun intended:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] S52Stu:
The problem is I work in the call center atmosphere and I just can't bring myself to call in and be an asshole. It is unacceptable and I definitely should call them to talk to them about it, but I doubt I will get as far as you. I will also post some BBS dump after it has time to gather some information.

Thank you again for all your feedback
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] S52Stu:
I took out my 32 GB SD card and haven't had a reboot or SOD since. I'm wondering if maybe this was part of the issue. Is it possible that it could be part of the issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jd1639:
Man, that's weird. No idea why that would make a difference. Was there anything on the card that could have caused the problem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] liquidzoo:
It's possible that the card had something to do with it, especially if it had errors or corruption.

I am on CM10 Stable and I get random reboots as well. Not too many but here and there, also my screen will go black and the captivate keys stay lit. I have to hold power for over 10 seconds and then the phone reboots. I've done a clean flash of CM10 and made sure that I followed the instructions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] S52Stu:
Got phone warrantied because when put back to stock it kept coming up with a battery disconnected message. My replacement skyrocket has random rebooted or went dark since. Though I am running UCLL3, and I have not had the balls to test PA because it is running UCLL3 so well.

Figured I would update, thanks again everyone
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jedinegotiator:
I have AT&T and I just got the Nexus 4. My previous phone was the Samsung Galaxy S II and I was getting data speeds of about 8Mbps. Now that I switched to the Nexus 4 it is acting like I am capped. I am getting data speeds of 7kbs down and 1.2Mbs down. For some reason every speed test I run results in 7Kbps down.

Why is this happening? On the galaxy S II I could flash different modems. Does the Nexus 4 have modems and could that be my problem?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spitefulcheerio:
Do a little searching and you will find your answer. I recently made a thread about this myself.

It has to do with the way the Nexus 4 shows up in AT&T's system. Call them and tell them you just switched to a Galaxy S2 Skyrocket (an LTE phone) and give them this IMEI: 357288040480105. They will reprovision your data to the fastest allowed speeds including LTE and HSPA+ when LTE isn't available. After you get off the phone with them go to you APN settings page and go here. Add the APN 3 on that page and combine APN 5 with it (MMS). Delete any other APNs you have after you save that one. Restart your phone and you'll be good to go!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morejaylesswar:
You're a Godsend.

I'm still deciding on if I'm going to use my N4 on T-Mobile or AT&T, but if I can get those mythical 20-30MB download speeds that I've seen some people with their N4 on AT&T, I'm going there.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jedinegotiator:
Why do I give them that IMEI? Can I not just tell them I got the Nexus 4 or do I need to lie and tell them I have the Skyrocket?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spitefulcheerio:
If I helped you out, hitting the Thanks button would be awesome ;)

I explained it in depth in the message I sent to you. Basically it has to do with AT&T not having our phone in their system so they drop us onto a ****ty standard 3G plan.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blinkenn:
Its not about lying to them, its about their system needs an IMEI to determine what plan to put on your account, i.e. the reps cant just 'pick' from a list of data plans, they input an IMEI and the system tells them 'you get this plan'. You need to have a smartphone 4G or LTE dataplan on your account to get faster speeds.

Obligatory:

Just create your own "4G" IMEI, call AT&T, give it to them, reboot, enjoy HSPA+.

I took the IMEI number to the AT&T store and they were able to put me on a 4G LTE plan. :good:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spitefulcheerio:
I would suggest going to an AT&T store to do this now. They want to sit back and rob us of our full experience with their network

If you're on TMobile, try the APNs found here. They may work, they may not work. Also, go into your MyTmobile account and make sure your phone is listed as a Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monster598:
Should I call At&t?

Hi Guys,

I am getting on avg 6mb down and 1.5 up is that normal for HSPA+ in the Boston area? The phone does change to HSPA+15 when data is being used.

If this is normal or "good" should I bother with calling At&t and change my imei back to my old Inspire 4G? :confused:

Thanks for you help on this....
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fsufan1200:
After calling AT&T wireless and providing them an IMEI number for a 4G LTE device, and created a new APN (Listed below are the settings), my device is working amazingly better. Not only is the Speedtest.net app working perfect now, I am now reaching download speeds of 9359 kbps, and upload speeds of 608 kbps.

MNC 410

Authentication type: Not set

APN type: default,admin,fota,mms,supl,hipri

APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6

Hope this helps folks who are having data speed issues.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danila99:
Hey guys. I have the same problem, my Nexus shows me 3 kB/s download speed — which is slow even by 1996 year standards. I'm using prepaid $25 plan with a data package on it. I wonder, would this «new IMEI» trick work with my prepaid plan? Or have I switch to a slavery commitment plan first? Please answer because this is the only thread on the internet I have found with some sense on the topic. Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ajfink:
That sounds about right for AT&T HSPA+.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistonrod:
Agreed. My speeds are similar.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Finishure:
Just curious how are you guys testing your speed because whatever app i use fails when i look at my settings though it says hspa 10, hspa +15 mostly hspa 10
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inseconds99:
This doesn't work, I have a 4g provisioned plan and my phone keeps connecting and disconnecting from hspa plus over and over again. I cannot get 1 damn APN to work the correct way with AT&T. I've had issue after issue and no fix. I cannot get this connection issue corrected. I've had an LTE plan with LTE APN nothing, a 4G plan with 4G APN and nothing. The only thing that works is the default settings but speed test errors so I'm not even sure what speeds that is now.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Finishure:
Welcome to the club i dont feel im getting horrible speeds im just not sure if im getting what im paying for bc i can't Guage my data speed
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowmanwithahat:
Also getting "8kbps" in the speedtest app. Seems to be completely false though. I've tethered my laptop and still pull great speeds and also tried to get a 92mb download from the phone. I managed to pull down ~30% in 1 minute, which is about equivalent to 4mbps which is on par with what I'd expect on HSPA in my area.

I wouldn't necessarily trust the speedtest app at this point. I should note that I pulled down roughly 7mbps through the speedtest.net website on my laptop when tethering.

Also... posting from the tethered connection right now. I really don't think there's any connectivity problems despite the horrible test results.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Finishure:
This are my speeds i really don't know if there okay or not the last 3 are after i changed my APN
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snowmanwithahat:
I want to correct my previous statement. I'm getting decent speeds with the wap.cingular apn, yes... but I'm still having occasional refresh issues with facebook and the speedtest app won't work.

I'm on a pre-paid "go phone" plan with ATT. This plan doesn't provision me with access to the other APN settings. I called the service rep and tried to register with the IMEI of a Galaxy S2 Skyrocket AND an Infuse 4G later in the day. After trying this and still being unable to change my APN settings I talked to a service rep again and they informed me that basic 3G is all that's available on the gophone plan from ATT!

So that seals the deal. I'm going to T-Mobile for their pre-paid and that's that. It's too bad but it is what it is. If there really is no 4G service on ATT I'm going to suffer the coverage hit and go to T-Mobile and pay $5 less a month for a 2gb soft cap instead of a 1gb cap on ATT.

Just a warning to everyone who's considering ATT's go phone plan

Technically he wouldn't owe them d*ck... They made the mistake and he was clueless about it he didn't think of the reasons why the credit was there and spent the money... So what? Their fault their problem... If anything they might wanna take that money out of one of their employee's paycheck...

Yea who cares about those dirty employees. They make a mistake and they should be punished by losing money out of their paycheck. They're definitely not real people and definitely out to help you 100 percent of the time. That's what kills me. So many people talk about calling into Verizon and "raising hell" abusing the employees. I guarantee half the people here have never worked a customer service job and seen how stressful it is to be yelled out or make a mistake. Maybe instead of exploiting that mistake you should just wait for them to fix it. The worst part about working for verizon or any other company like it is that you make a mistake it comes right out of your pocket. You use that credit and you take money from someone else for making an honest mistake. I'm glad to know that there's people just ready and waiting to exploit verizon and by extension the employees. And the reason they are so ready to do this is because Verizon owes them something. Entitled ignorant customers, contrary to what that employee who's gonna lose 615 dollars is gonna be forced to say, I thank you for being the worst part of verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Roland_D:
Well that is the way it is. I didn't say what he SHOULD do I said that the customer wouldn't OWE them money...

If this happened to a cashier at Walmart it would work the same exact way... It comes with the job, I'm not making any moral statement here, just facts. If you work as a cop you risk your life, if you work in a warehouse you may risk to get injured, you work as an accountant and you are responsible for the money you handle...

Every time I go to a Verizon store I'm treated like an idiot. Just a number that pays a big bill. And as far as them owing us something, you're right they don't, but they keep taking things away from current customers. That is why people are bitter about Verizon. I'm grandfathered unlimited data and tether. They keep pushing to get rid of that and/or make it harder to keep. I live in the sticks my only Internet options are dial up or 90 a month satellite. I use A LOT of data. If I had to pay for the data I use on the new shared system my bill would be twice what I pay now. So I understand people's frustration with Verizons big business attitude. Just another perspective.
