X1 Spontaneously restarts. Help me find out why. - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

In the past couple of days I've noticed that the phone restarts on it's own. No new software was installed recently (except Iris Browser, but that's not even running). Has anyone experienced something similar?

yes, but with me it only happens when I slide my phone open or close it...

As usual, do a hard reset and if the problem is still there, ask again .
The reason is either a conflict between some of the soft you have installed or general WinMo attrition (piling up of reg errors, old files, etc.).
Of course, I might be wrong .

That's a hardware problem. The cable connecting the two parts of the phone has corroded.

Mine is in constant, nonstop usage since 01.01.2009 as my main&only mobile device
(besides the computer).
And I didn't hardreset/upgrade yet.
So it's a 10th month of the same FW since the beginning.
Lately my X1 behaves strangely, just because there's tons of apps installed and uninstalled,
some of them being beta (Opera 9.7 - great but buggy and problematic) and apparently playing bad games with the device.
(Opera 9.7 sometimes crashes the way you cannot start it anymore yet the process is impossible to kill even in advanced task manager app)
I get angry occasionally but in fact that's how it goes...
Hard reset is a must probably!

Probably will have to do HardReset if it happens again. Maybe it'll be a chance to try out some of those 6.5 ROMs.

if after hard resetting was performed and stiill experiencing the same problem, try to replace the flexible connector......and if still same u need to do a full reprogramming

Soft reset per day?

Have my att tilt for over a week now and i noticed I need to perform soft reset at least twice a day. I am not sure if that's normal but I think it's annoying since I rely on it for reminders. This morning I had to do a soft reset because it froze during the night. I am not sure if I want to use it as alarm clock.
I am using the Dutty's V4 RTM and Radio 1.27.12.11.
Is there something I can do or do i need to get used to it?
Other than that and the bluetooth not working with my infiniti g35, i love it.
No problems for me, never had to do an softreset because of freezing up. Only because of my battery problem.
I soft reset a couple of times a week - just for good measure (after running memmaid or something to assure good operations). Don't think I've ever "needed" to other than during flashing and installations. Using Dutty's V2 (medium), but moments from flashing Q-Mobile 1.2. I tend to avoid things like cubes and S2U and such (justified or not, I see them as unnecessary resource hogs), but am hardly minimalistic as far as installing programs.
Perhaps you'd be happier with a "liter" ROM? I'm still testing to find the one I want to stick with. That being said, I love the V2 medium - just looking to appease my inner flashing addict.
i love it when ppl use cooked ROMs and then complain about issues...No offense to anybody. I used cooked ROMs on the Hermes as well. Not on my TILT. I do not have to reset the Tilt, but when I do is because a third party program freezes.
And also remember, any program that you install, might cause issues, because crappy programming...It's not necessary the OS...
Using Qmobile 1.2 for about a week. Might have had to soft rest once or twice. Not too bad. I think mainly because of Navizon though...
I never really had to soft reset due to crashes, but i normally do softresets after configuring registries that require soft resets. Otherwise, its on 24/7!!
I soft reset when I find my phone getting a little sluggish. It's like a computer, I figure, and I restart my computer multiple times a week. Either way, I don't think there's any harm in soft resetting too much.
I find I have to soft reset fairly often. Probably every day. I am using stock ROM but have installed a bunch of stuff, so I am suspicious of that.
I do have a Cube installed, and am considering dropping it off. Not sure if that will help or not.
I find that there are a lot of posts about various quirks on Tilt. And I will say, "Gee, that doesn't happen to me", and of course next thing you know it does. Some of the stuff is just me still learing how I can get myself into trouble. For example today my sound quit and I couldn't hear music from WMP. But it turned out that the problem was that sometime I had hit that little speaker at the top which opend the volume control, and before getting it closed I had deactivated sound. So even with volume at 100%, no sound. Interesting...
Anyway, as some said, I suspect combination of installing stuff causes issues. The more you install the more likely it will be problematic. But then, for me anyway, one reason I have this unit is so I can put stuff on it to make it productive. But then, after all, it is a version of Windows, so after a while, probably need to reload from scratch (hard reset).
yea most likely its the stuff u put on the stock? o men do some upgade.
I do soft reset about once in 14 days. I usually do it when my available RAM approaches 40 MB. Don't remember it has ever crashed on me except for a few times when usiing opera mobile.
Actually I after using the TyTn II for 3 months now I am starting to believe that the instability issues we relate with windows mobile are becoming more of a myth than a reality
I guess I soft reset too often? I do it about 15 times a day. By choice, though.

just hard reset, it may help
I normally do a soft reset every morning when I disconnect my Tilt from the computer, since Active Sync kicks in every so often during the night and drains the RAM by running. . . but it's still between 50 - 55MB, even at that. Other than that, the only time I've had to soft reset is when an app would freeze up -- which isn't very often.
most of the times i soft reset is after installing a program or vice versa when it tells me it needs to do so...rarely will i have to do it cuz it froze or whatnot
I'm in exactly the same boat as bapssystupr3m3, I only soft reset it when an installed application tells me i need to do so.
Other than that, I frequently make sure I close all the apps that are just running in the background and my kaiser appears fine.
Only soft resets when schedule back up comes up daily. Other than the scheduled backup, no resets (so far *knock on wood*).
what's wrong with resetting the phone? It doesn't hurt..
I'm using the stock HTC rom, and can only remember one time when something locked up on me (a third party app) and I ended up soft-resetting, the only other times I've done it have been after installing/configuring new things. I guess in the normal course of things I maybe reset... once a week? Sometimes more, but never for any negative reason.
I'd say the uptime on this device is at least as good as my last Symbian-based phone, and the myth of Windows Mobile being unstable is just that - a myth.
I'm using the stock Tilt rom with just a few things installed and have to reset most days. Yesterday when I woke up I discovered my phone had crashed at 11:30 the previous evening when someone had called me. Today when I woke up an hour late I reset the phone because my alarms hadn't worked nor were the notifications for messages...
I soft-reset once everyday (in the morning). It's part of my daily routine now. I use ClearTemp program to clear everything (start menu, cache, etc.) and then soft-reset using that program as well.

Xperia Boot problems?

Hi guys, I have had my Xperia a few days now, it's a Vodafone that I hae flashed the Generic UK software to (without HardSPL) it seems to work ok but I am having a few problems. First of all, whether or not the phone will boot is hit and miss, it will get to the today screen and lock up as soon as the clock on the today screen loads. Hitting the reset switch under the cover will reboot it and it will generally boot fine, usually on every second boot.
Another problem I have is that Shell32.exe crashes a lot as does explorer.exe Shell32.exe seems to crash when installing and uninstalling applications, it does not always happen but it's happened a few times so far and is becoming irritating.
I am going to reinstall the firmware image and leave it a day or two without installing any apps to see if the problem is resolved. If anyone has any posible ideas I would appreciate it. Thanks.
Edit: I have renamed thread to remove the reference to boot problem with memory card inserted because after having removed the memory card the problem still persists so I gues it's unrelated.
Shell32.exe error
I also am having issue with shell32.exe crashing, the problem is repeatable everytime I go into the today screen options, as soon as I exit, regardles of which panel I went in from, shell32,exe crashes and I have to reboot the phone. Sometimes the only way to do so is to remove the battery. Any changes that I have made in the today screen do show up after the reboot. This is really annoying me now as shell32.exe is an important system process. Any thoughts, or shall I just hard reset.
R2AA
I'd make sure you're updated to the GENERIC UK R2AA ROM, if you're already on it, get a new copy of it from here, reformat your mem card and flash the phone again.
I seem to be OK now and not getting the shell32.exe crash anymore. Still having various other problems with it stopping responding (barely anything installed, and nothing really running) but not much more I can do, just learning to deal with it because i can't do with the stress of worrying about it. It's Windows, so expect it to suck.
i was on my R1A, had this problem, Hard reset it and the problem still exist...
Upgraded to the official R2AA10 and guess what? the problem is still there....
What is it that actually causing this problem? im planning on selling my X1 because this problem is so irritating....
Strange

Strangely, I stoppped having this problem a long time ago. I ran on R2A and R3A for a long time without any trouble now, I think it was due to a common program we were having installed because I use different programs than I used to and I havn't seen it happen since I last posted about having the problem.
Stick with a fresh install and see how it goes, install your apps slowly until it doesn't happen anymore.
I can't remember the exact programs I used to use but I have a feeling it was related to homescreen plugins or some such.
Let me know what programs you use maybe we can find a common denominator.

Okay, so after hard reset, i always install my program again one by one...
Strangely, the error always happen the FIRST time i install any program that uses today plugin...at first i thought it was SPB Wireless, then after another hard reset i installed Beejive, and the same error occurs...
Now mine is a little bit stable, mainly because i dont touch the today setting anymore....i (forcefully, despite the error ) installed Pocket digital clock, SPB Pocket Plus, and SPB wireless....
Its been fine for the last 2 days...without touching any of the today settings...
What is it that actually causing the problem? so strange....

Well, I never used SPB wireless when i had that problem, but i did use Beejive, Vito Sound Explorer (has a today plugin) HomeScreen++ and Wisbar Advance Desktop (saw a few crashes with this). Saw the problems a lot back then.
When I only ran Homescreen++ I never saw the problem.
I am running 6.5 now so i can't test it for you I'm afraid to find the exact problem, but I'd certainly keep hold of your Xperia because it's definately just caused by a 3rd party app/plugin.

the weird thing is, i ran all my program above for about 4 months on my R1A and no problem occurred....everything was good.
Then i tried to install SPB phone suite, but the installation stopped at 3/4 because the software wasnt signed or something like that (strange, i got it from SPB site), and it just left me some today plugin but withoun any name...it was blank....my today plugin order was in a mess too...i soft reset, it was okay....but i soft reset it again later that day and thats when the problem happened...
I found it strange that it still happens after hard reset and even after Rom change...especially to ANY program that uses today plugin....weird...
Try using R2A_10 or later, I never had any problems from then on, I'm running gtrabs R3A/6.5 atm, although it hasa bunch oof problemsof its own.

Diamond is running extremely slow - TouchFlo won't start

Suddenly my Sprint HTC Touch Diamond is running extremely slow. TouchFlo 3D will not start. Various things runs extremely slowly like tapping on the start menu takes like 20-30 seconds to come up.
Rebooted several times. Turned off TouchFlo. Phone's still as slow as molasses?
What to do? Flash the ROM? If so, which I'd hate to do, where do I get the original Sprint based ROM?
Update: For some reason \Windows\manilla.exe never gets run. If I run it by hand then Touch Flo comes up. But it's still kinda slow.
Who/What starts manilla.exe?
Simply do a hard reset, this will reset everything back to original rom as in a factory reset.
http://www.hardreset.eu/htc_touch_diamond_hard_reset_soft_reset_en.html
That would be wonderful if I didn't customize things. But I have - heavily. And I'll need to reinstall all my apps. I was hoping not to do that...

But this is the most likely reason it is running slowly... Needs a hard reset and start again - and be judicious with what you re-install.
Before doing a hard reset, have you tried a soft reset??
A soft reset for heavy users is almost required dally in some cases to release the memory from being attached to programs and the OS which is consider to be called "Memory Leaks." A typical problem for all 6.1 Roms.
This slow and sometimes unresponsive behaviour was what also experience as well. There are programs that help memory find it's home but sometimes a good old fashion soft reset is what's needed.
Last thing: Make sure that when you have flashed a new ROM to ALWAYS do a HARD RESET immediately. Not sure if you followed that procedure in your last flash. IF not, I'm afraid a soft reset might not be sufficient to remedy this issue for you.

This is exactly what I was trying to avoid. A computer doesn't suddenly go from running OK to dog slow when you have not changed anything (I only rebooted/soft reset). The running of manilla.exe doesn't suddenly disappear.
Everything I install I install for a reason.

Daily! If not hourly. WinMo is not known for being stable.

I'm well versed in what memory leaks are. 'Round here we call them bugs. Being in the business for some 30 years now I can tell you that having to reboot an OS periodically is a sign of an extremely buggy OS. Unfortunately that's what WinMo is.

I've yet to flash this phone. I was hoping to avoid it. There are so many ROMs to choose from, some better than others. And I'm not looking forward to having to reapply all my customizations...
i get a problem like this occasionally after a restart. I need to hit the green dial key to get it to ask my PIN. after i enter my pin everything is back to normal.
just an idea
sprite backup
What you should do is when you hard-reset the phone and you have installed all your must-have apps (and the phone still runs smoothly) use Sprite Backup to make an image. This way when things go bad again, just restore the Sprite image to that wonderful time when everything still worked smoothly and you won't have to install all the apps again. Only the apps you installed after the image ofcourse... depends how often you backup
Works like a charm.
Be careful though, when you flash another rom, you CAN'T use the Sprite image anymore!! You have to make a new image then.
Hope this helps.

tilt keeps freezing

hey guys, not sure whats going on, but my tilt lately keeps freezing, but it only freezes when i go into landscape mode. i've ran the same programs for a long time (palringo, google maps, live search, kaiser tweak and srs wow) i'm not even running skyfire anymore, and i've uninstalled my opera browser but it keeps freeze. i've done some reflashes and hardware resets, and only ran the above programs, and it still ends up freezing when i put it into landscape. Anyone know what could be causing this? it doesn't matter if im typing landscape in notes, palringo, PIE or anything else, always freezes. The ironic thing is that if i bust out my stylus and type w/ that using the soft keyboard it seems to run just fine (but slows me down A LOT). any help would be much appreciated.
Do you mean your hardware keyboard lags?
If so in software is a speedup keyboard .cab.

Thanks for clarification, just that you say soon as use onscreen keyboard no issue, are you using a stock ROM? Does it happen on a clean flash no programs installed?

sorry, i should have given a lot more info, but i had to jet to class. Anyways, its not the stock rom, i'm running NATF's Lite rom (no TF3D). I actually downloaded originally around september/nov/dec of 08 (dont remember, but its been months that i've been running it). And never had a problem with it...now all of a sudden it seriously craps out everytime i run it. I tried running Hyperdragons IV Lite and i was experiencing some of the same problems. I'm really starting to think its one of the problems i'm running, so i'm going to to a hard reset (again) and see if it runs just palringo, and google maps w/out any problems. its just getting super frustrating to be honest. i'm running the exact same programs that i've ran for the last year, but now its deciding to act up. hopefully its something in the software and not hardware
ok...so i got home, and installed the OEM att tilt rom. really, no matter what program i install, pretty much anything. the freezing occurs. any out there familiar w/ cell phone hardware? i'm thinking that might be the cause, if so...do you think there's anything that can be done/replaced to fix it?
Hi, this started happening to my just today also! At first I thought it was the onscreen keyboard that made my phone freeze (as I have seen others with the same issue) and thought I could fix it by using another keyboard app. I used SPB's keyboard and it prevents my phone from freezing and I'm able to type things using it. BUT my phone STILL freezes when I put it in landscape mode and try to type something. It freezes after typing a couple of letters. This is stock ROM; I've never flashed it.
Is there a .dll I can use to repair or anything of the sort?
Btw, I'm using a Tilt. Thanks!
anyone have any method ..to prevent this problem???
I find that if restart the phone few times will freeze at gray screen .."the original HTC gray blank screen with loading box in the middle" but the antenna reception green light is normal blinking (all the button not functioning).... -solution have to press reset button below ...
so now everytime install new program very scare to restart .. if un lucky ..will stuck at that screen.... really wonder why ...is it the WM6.1 not stable???
I use motorola linux ..no such problem...

Try the relevant ROM thread also look at your hardSPL version. Some users have fewer freezing probs just by updating hardSPL.

Not at all, there's definitely something wrong with your setup if it wont even boot fully. Maybe a hard reset and some testing between installing each individual program will weed out the culprit. That said I've found (at least the HTC official) WM 6.0 ROMs to be much more reliable and stable than WM 6.1 ROMs.

Not as such - hardSPL is made by dedicated folks who have customised the OEM version but installing it will mean you no longer have an 'official' setup. That said, you can always revert to the official HTC SPL if needed for eg a warranty return. You could also install a newer HTC SPL for your ROM (as long as it's compatible *be careful about this* - eg I'm using the 1.93 HTC SPL with my ROM instead of the 1.56 SPL). This is all explained in the Kaiser wiki (through the xda-wiki button above) so it's well worth having a good read there
aaaahh I looked around. and I can't find a driver to reinstall for the hardware keyboard... I'm assuming this would fix it~
Sorry to double post but I just wanted to say I fixed the problem by backing up and restoring with SKTools after doing a hard reset. It makes me think, what exactly caused the problem in the first place if doing this fixes it? Is there anything that SKTools leaves behind in an All System backup? Perhaps something messed with my registry causing the keyboard to freeze the phone when used.
I'd hate to think my phone can actually get spyware now. Maybe Skyfire's true desktop viewing of webpages allows for this to happen?
Let me know what you guys think
" used Spb's keyboard and it prevents my phone from freezing and I'm able to type things using it. BUT my phone STILL freezes when I put it in landscape mode and try to type something. It freezes after typing a couple of letters. This is stock ROM; I've never flashed it."
If I will you to avoid ...uninstall this soft keyboard ... use back the original keyboard at the time being and see... if u restore back what is the diff compare to now ... If I not wrong still the same ...
FYI, I got this freezing problem is after I have install PCM kb 0.14 ...then I try install & uninstall & install ..and need to restart the phone ..2 out of 4 time is freeze at loading screen .. now really worry is it b'cos I uninstall it at the same time have remove certain original files .....
WM is diff with windows ...lack of tool to chk which system files damage .... I really hate hard reset ..just like computer... imagine keep format the hard disk ....

If only restoring a full size PC was as easy and quick as hard restting. Sure there's a little work involved in reinstalling apps after completing the hard reset but if the apps are well designed ones that install via activesync, that's as easy as going to Activesyncs add and remove programs function and ticking a box. If this is not available then maybe the old app is the cause of the problem?
A hard reset every now and again is very useful for maintaining peak performance and it certainly weeds out whether a problem is hardware or software related pretty quickly.

Anyone noticing these bugs?

Hi all,
I bought my hd7 on thursday and have been using it fairly heavily since.
I have noticed however that it will on occasion reboot itself, at seemingly random occurences. It has done this maybe 3 or 4 times.
On two occasions I've also found that the volume would (without my input), set itself to full volume or no volume. This wouldn't be instantaneous, but more like the volume button being held down one way or the other. On both occasions this resolved itself after around 10 - 15 seconds.
Should I chalk this up to the software (which can hopefully be resolved in due course) or do you think its faulty hardware?
Other than this, I am loving the phone.
Cheers.
Hmmm, im haviing the same problems, i dont get it, also when i open a tile i.e, Marketplace it will load and then just go back to the start screeen :\, anyone know how to fix this bug ?
So I'm not the only one. That would suggest that its not just a one-off faulty handset. At a guess I'd say the software was just a little rough around the edges.
If it is the software, hopefully Microsoft will be able to fix these things and improve overall stability with future updates. This is the trade off for getting things at release I suppose.
Aside from these minor issues (they've only happened maybe once a day with heavy use) the OS is silky smooth. If they are the only problems, I can live with them until the next update.
Mine phone randomly re-booted the other night, I hope that it's just software related.
I got mine on thursday too, mine's reset itself once or twice. Today I had a weird bug though. The battery was quite low, about 10%, and I called my friend and I could hear her, but she couldn't hear me. She called back - same thing. I tried calling someone else and still the same. I turned the phone off and back on again and everything was back to normal. I thought it was all very strange. Can anyone confirm whether that was a hardware or software fault? Or is it nothing to worry about? (I did check the in-call volume/mute settings!)
cheers
Yep me too, has rebooted a few times when trying to do multiple things at once eg when receiving a text and updating hotmail. 6 or 7 times since thursday, with a couple occasions where I took it out my pocket and it was on the sim pin request screen meaning it had rebooted for now reason and I didn't know :-(
Anyone loaded the generic RUU yet?

I also have this problem! I'd be using either zune(selecting a song) or marketing place(browsing apps) and it will crash and go to the home screen. When i try and re-launch the apps, they saying "loading" and just returns to the home screen.
I hope this is a software bug rather than a fault with my HD7

I also have this problem! I'd be using either zune(selecting a song) or marketing place(browsing apps) and it will crash and go to the home screen. When i try and re-launch the apps, they saying "loading" and just returns to the home screen.

I had the same issue yesterday, I had to reboot the device to get marketplace working again.
If this is true, it must be HTC fault and not M$.

But if no other WP7 owner is reporting this except HD7, he might have a point.
(I am a omnia 7 owner and there are no random reboot)
Yeah.bought hd7 last week.having the same problem
I am an Omnia 7 owner, and there's been no random reboot.
But, I am getting the thing where if the marketplace gets stuck loading something, I exit and then can't get back in.
On touch of the tile it just says loading and returns to home, needs reboot.

+1, thank goodness im not alone with this issue. My HD7 doesn't randomly reboot either, its just a problem with marketplace and zune crashing and then not run again until i manually reboot the device.
Seems to be a common issue. I've raised this in the microsoft windows phone 7 forum, i'll update what they come back with.
having the same reboot issues and also apps closing themselves on my german o2 hd7 ..
has anyone tried
RUU_Schubert_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.23.707.01_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE ?? is this any better? (and does it have german keyboard?)
There's a possibility the cpu could be overheating. I know my N1 used to randomly reboot due to this when I'd run Wifi Tether for an extended period of time.

i do not think this is the case, the phone reboots overnight in idle mode.
Just to add, have had the phone for 1 week
Cant say mine has ever auto rebooted but the volume has gone mute (and have to restart to fix) twice now
Once also screen froze on alarm display and again had to be retarted
also have had same problem as others here with market place and jumping back to main screen
glad its not my phone, hope updates come soon, having a phone with unreliable volume aint so hot!

Let me lay it down for you:
Microsoft decided to enter the mobile market with a new OS.
Microsoft laid down the minimum requirements for their OS that the hardware manufacturers must meet.
Microsoft designed all aspects of the OS, including the drivers for the hardware.
So now you're telling me that HTC decided to go grab the OS, and install on their device packed with electronics around the globe without MS knowing and approving it?
One thing when you load your own environment like Sense or TouchWiz on the phone and you are responsible for it functioning, and providing user access to the OS, and another when you cannot do any of it, because the whole OS is closed, and you are told you must use this .dll with these options, and no you cannot know why and how how it does it.
