You have a stuck power button. Take apart the phone and clean the power bottom with compressed air. Then rapidly push the button in and out for a while.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Malarz:
Resolution:

I took the phone apart, and checked the power button (which had been my first guess), and was seemingly all right.

The battery was also not the issue, as I tried 3 different batteries.

Having no other choice, I put the battery back in, and let the phone happily reboot at its own leisure. After over 20 reboots, the system came on. Then a few minutes later the device rebooted again, and the loop started all over. After a while it booted up again. This time I did not wait for the device to reboot by itself, and I switched the phone off with power button, and then turned back on, and it booted normally. Repeated this once more - normal boot again. One more power off, and I entered the boot menu and did factory reset. Once the stock reinstalled, everything would work perfectly - no more issues with boot loop.

So it seems to me as a software problem more than anything else.

Side note: for the last several weeks the phone displayed strange behavior, that is the screen would light up for no reason by itself, and quickly go off. Sometimes it happened once every few minutes, sometimes it happened several times a minute. Did it have anything to do with the boot loop? No idea. But it strengthens my hunch about a software issue, as that behavior also went away after factory reset.

Sorry for the lengthy post, but since I have not found a similar case anywhere in the forums, I though someone might find this interesting. I do not deal with phones except as a user, but some of you guys do it maybe professionally, so maybe this will be a curious puzzle for you to solve. :)

Hardware not software. You had a stuck power button. By forcing the reboot with the power button you unstuck it. If you don't believe it research Occam's razor. Glad you got it fixed(unstuck) though.:victory:

Show your home screens CM10.1

jutley,

That is exciting to hear jutley. The CM10 ROM on the Kindle Fire 2 has a solid start with just a couple of issues, one is the problem with HD Content - maybe our work on the Ubuntu ROM would help Haskcode since we were able to get beyond the display issue on the KF2. We will drop them a line.

Thank you for the post jutley!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jheysl2:
Im looking to flash the latest CM10.1 Nightlies Rom & PhilZ-cwm6 Kernel v3.99. Im currently on Stock 4.0.4 xxLRK rom.

I know I have to follow these steps:

Download xxx-signed.zip kernel matching your ROM

Put the previously downloaded xxx-signed.zip file on your external sd card

Boot into stock recovery (volume up+home+power)

Select "apply update from external storage".

Now select the xxx-signed.zip file you copied in previous step

You are rooted + new PhilZ-cwm6 kernel with CWM6

but My question is can I flash straight from stock (once wiped etc) to cm10.1 & Do I have to change the kernel once I flash to CM10.1? (if so which one)

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msedek:

[General Questions and Answers] jeb192004:
I been really getting into learning to customize roms lately and really want to learn more than what I can from the guides on here. Was talking with my ex about me getting ready to go back to school for engineering and also got on the subject of what I been doin with my phone. She suggested that I go for mobile development instead of engineering if I enjoy what I'm doing so much. Only thing I'm wondering about tho is...

Would it be worth it to spend money on school to get a degree in it?

Also, I live in mid Michigan. Looked online and there's not a lot for jobs here. Closest would be around Detroit which is about a 2 1/2 hour drive. Job being an app developer

Would this type of career/job require me to be there all the time? Or is it something where I would go there, find out what they want out of their app, go home and start building the app?

I know I could make apps of my own and make money doing that. Have ideas already to do so. Just not sure if going to school to get a degree would be worth it. Especially with where I live and very few no s being around here for this.

Thanks a lot for this, very informative.

When freezing apps the names of them, though some are obvious, its quite overwhelming to know what exactly to freeze.

Can you give a few example of apps you would freeze. In my case I'd like to freeze the following:

Setup Wizard

Live Wallpapers (example; Bubbles)

Stock Email app with Exchange Services (Do I need this)

Stock Calender (Do I need this)

P.S. - charging your battery only when it is about to get exhausted belongs to old school now. Charge whenever u can charge

Rg this does this good for battery ?? I used to do charging only when it is less than 20.. I heard and believed that battery lyf is dependent on number of charge cycles ?? please advise...
[XDA-University] maxxinn:
Re: {save battery} {all phones}

If you charge your phone to around 100. Then it will be considered as one charge cycle. And if you are charging it upto 80, 85 then it wouldnt be cosidered qs one. So as OP said, it is safe to charge it frequently.
[XDA-University] bad bone:
Re: {save battery} {all phones}

I thought that too but from my experience it's not true the only time I had problems with my battery is because I either didn't fully charge or discharge then it seems to cap or deteriorate at the level that I plugged in or unplugged and I have noticed that on my devices and others

don't be scared it's only a phone :)

There's something missing there xD. Because some people reading what you said can be thinking: wait a minute! does this mean that i can charge my phone only to 85% everytime instead of 100% and the battery will never die because it will never do even One Single Charge Cycle? Great :D.

Just by curiosity, what would happen if we really charge the phone only to 85% instead of 100% everytime? xD, battery gets a head shot faster and dies? battery dies faster because we feed him less? battery dies faster because his jacket makes him hot and then he melts after some time? Or any other option? xD.

I am using smartassv2 with row scheduler..no underclock no overclock..reduce ur screen brightness..turn 3g on only wen required..not using any task killer or battery savers bcz all the functions if battery saver can be done by us only..we can reduce additional cpu for the app by little manual effort from our end..

Anyway we all use our fones for best performance..not only for better battety life..so if it can last 24 hrs i think that is fine..

Try greenify, works great for me. It will hibernate your chosen apps, so it will n0t c0nsume juice.

[XDA-University] spaazm:
+1

It does make a difference on your battery life. Especially if you want to use your maps from time to time for instance, and don't want to hibernate it permanently. It freezes them on the go. They get hibernated while you lock your device and unfreezed only when you try to use it. It does however deny you all kinds of push notifications, so Facebook won't inform you about your new messages if you allow Greenify to take care of it.

I myself find this thread useful. You got my thanks. It's the first time I can see this kind of info collected in one tidy manner.

I can only hope that it's going to be updated and getting even more specific, even thought it's already very helpful.

Some things I've done and have had a lot of juice saved.......

#If u have an amoled screen, use dark wallpaper and inverted apps. Bright colors ( white) will use much more power.

# disable haptic feedback(vibrations).(ringer, keyboard feedback, touch feedback)

# disable keyboard sounds

#disable NFC and hotspot functions

# disable location services

# change your sync settings to be as infrequent as you can live with.(email, calender, etc)

#get rid of unnecessary widgets

# reduce number of home screens to minimum

# disable profiles if not using

#purchase apps. Ad supported apps use extra power to deliver those ads.

#facebook is a very resource Hungary app. Steals your precious battery and your soul.:D

#Root, debloat, install custom ROM, install custom kernel,underclock

#Tasker,...nuff said.

# use the speaker less. use a headset.

# if rooted, increase WiFi scan interval.

That's enough for now. By following just half of this list you could add a few hours of discharge time.

I didn't state the obvious ones for fear of being castrated by the elitists. But after all if you are on xda then you should know what the basics are.

If you don't mind please explain why would it increase battery life. Common sense tells that the more scans the bigger the power consumption. Am I wrong?

[XDA-University] CruxHumanus:
That there is a great app, I recommend it everywhere.

Also, on the topic of underclocking, another alternative would be, if available to you, switching the governor to Hotplug: it's basically OnDemand, but it switches cores on and off as defined by need. So, most of the time, you'll be using just a single CPU, which greatly improves battery life.
[XDA-University] Yuta Yano:
thanks!
[XDA-University] mightbme:
My experience.

A combination of:

Greenify

Juice Defender

And an app killer

Now I know that people say that using an app killer is a waste of time because apps are just reloaded in the background, but (and someone please correct my logic if I'm wrong) greenify stops the unwanted ones from reloading, so it's only shutting things down that I've not closed properly.

Using this combo has made a massive difference for me anyway.

Hope this helps someone out there. :)
[XDA-University] doctor_droid:
When I published this, greenify didnt existed ;)

Yes greenify is good coz it hibernates the app and prevents them from restarting

While app killers just kill the app and cant prevent them from restarting

Hope u agree ;)
