I received my OTA to FRF83... and now my phone seems to be freezing up every so often while doing basic tasks... even waking up the phone sometimes freezes at the unlock screen. Anyone else getting this? My phone is UNROOTED and official. FRF72 ran fine... not sure whats going on but its REAL annoying.
I even tried factory resetting and still getting the same issues.
Any ideas? Can I manually go back to FRF72 somehow?
Can you clear the cache and dalvik cache via recovery, if you have stock recovery? I know you can if you have a modded recovery.
if not, then maybe it's an app or something hogging memory

I just tried "clear user data"... thats about all I get with stock recovery. I don't think its an app considering I deleted everything and it still continued to freeze.
Can I delete Dalvik from ADB even unrooted?
I get frequent lock ups and freezing on an unrooted AT&T with 2.1. Seems too many apps load up and even though they may be in the background not using resources, the overall memory drops to about 25 MB. Go get ProcessManager from the market and kill the apps running. Some will restart but it will cure the lockups. I also disabled a handful of things on startup, stopped using live wallpapers and routinely kill apps to free up memory because of the lockups. Maybe Froyo 2.2 will correct this issue. Seems most of the rooted guys don't have any of these issues, so it must be this version of firmware.

Like I said... I factory data reset so there where NO APPS. and the phone still comes to a screaching hault after a few minutes of jumping in and out of apps. It freezes to the point I have to remove the battery. Becomes completely unresponsive to touch.
As a side note, ive been using android since the first G1 on pre-order... I know how it works and how you need to use a task killer to keep stuff running smoothly... This however is extremely odd as it completely freezes.
again, only started after my OTA update to FRF83.
thanks for the input. I guess i'll have to send back my N1 for the forth time to HTC... getting pretty sick of this. That Iphone 4 or Galaxy S looks better everyday.
You don't need a task killer manager since 2.1. Froyo is even better at handling memory.

i noticed the same thing on my phone today...unlocked phone went from ERE27 to FRF50 to FRF83 yesterday......
today it seems to freeze...from time to time - i thought it requires a battery pull but if i wait long enough it will be ok again.
anyone know what the issue is?

I'm glad I'm not the only one. Mines also an unlocked phone. Wonder if that has anything to do with it.
Ugh we need frf90 to come along and fix this!
The Same here
It happened to me right now, My phone hanged and I forced reset it, it happened one time when I was on FRF72 and one time now on FRF83. it was after a phone call and I couldn't unlock the phone, touch screen didn't work but it did work for power button menu so it should be a software problem, I thought it should be something incompatible between launcher pro and FRF 72 and FRF83 but it seems it is not the case.
I have the same problem. Went from ere27-frf50-frf83. I thought it was launcherpro so I uninstalled it.
Still getting freezes on unlock...and switching between Apps. Sometimes need battery pull sometimes just some time for the phone to catch up.
I had previously switched from frf50 back to ere27 because I couldn't stand the constant need to pull battery because phone freezes.
issues i have with frf83 is not as serious as frf50 so I think I will still stick with it for a few days and see what happens.
Just really need the official ota.

I just upgraded to the 2.2 (FRF83) yesterday, already had to pull the battery twice in one morning because it just froze up..
What the fu*k did they do! The 2.2 prerelease was fine hadn't had any crashes at all in the month I used it.
Edit; make that 3 times.. WTF!
Now, I'm extremely tempted to just root the phone but I was sticking with official builds for stability, I really didn't think it would get worse..
Yup having the same problem... Had to pull the battery twice today due to freezing and the same thing yesterday... It just started happening to me. Got 83 when it first came out, and its now starting to freeze. Idk what the deal is..
I still have no idea what these updates do.. What's different? I'm talking about the frf50, 72, and 83.. Froyo by it self seemed fine, what's new??

There are some text that I keep receiving over and over again, right now it seems to happening every 5-6 minutes. I tried rebooting and same result. The phone is 6 weeks old and this just started happening 2 days ago. Rooted running nfinites .7 ROM. The only thing I can think of is wiping everything and reinstalling the ROM, which I'd rather not do.
Anyone had the same problem?
I have only had my streak for a few weeks and in that time I have been unable to use it for more than a few minutes before it freezes and I have to reset with the pinhole button. Has anyone else been having this issue? I have had it replaced. I have reset it to stock, had it rooted, left off all applications and Dell support is as helpful as a bulimic in an eating contest. The problem is that since I had it replaced once so I can't get a refund...
Does anyone have any advice or a similar issue?
I had to do it once back the week I got it in early Feb, but not since then. That's very strange...
Mine was same after second day after my purchase... I did a factory reset and it was fine after than.
Then subsequently those freezes are all because my relentless trial of all softwares that requires root. So those should has nothing to do with stock rom then since freezes disappear after i uninstall some apps.
Ah there is a pin? Had missed that.
It would have helped yesterday when my S7 froze and I had to let the battery run out.
This morning, fully recherged it died all of a sudden while I was using Google Maps and for a few minuts it was not even showing a light when recharging...all of a suddent it came back to life. Very odd!
I've been having an occasional screen freeze since updating to .902.
It's generally during SMS texting, but it's happened a few other times, as well.
I'm starting to think I might want to go back to .901, since I never had any problems with it, at all.
Has anyone else had this issue?
If I'm the only one, I may wipe everything and just do a fresh install to see if it helps.
this actually just happened to me while web browsing. It stayed frozen for about full minute then went to standby and then everything was fine.
Im on stock 902 with motofail root.

I get it occasionally when playing Angry Birds, clears itself in 5 to 10 seconds. Had it one other time which was after a phone call and just hit the power button put it to sleep and woke it back up and all was fine.
Okay so I updated to ICS o days after the initial release, lost all my numbers and some apps here and there but no big deal. Well now my vivid has been acting extremely glitchy with apps disappearing from the home screen, the stock internet browser starts dock mode after a few page searches, the phone resets itself when I set it down or plug it in, there are times when it resets itself that I can't even turn it on so I have to pull the battery out so I can finally turn the phone back on, and finally when its been reset no matter which way it has to update all the apps.
I don't know what the heck is going on all these problems have started within the last week and I'm running ICS 4.0.3. Stock, anyone got a clue what's going on?
IF you did the ota....download the ruu and reflash with it...ota has caused alot of issue for a lot of people
Think of the OTA as a Windows 'upgrade' instead of a full installation. It can cause things to go haywire. I just had this issue today. Lol.
