I'm having some real issues it seems. I recently rooted my g1 about 2 weeks ago I'm running jf 1.5.1. My problem is that as soon as I rooted my phone I started to get all kinds of messages on my phone about my apps not responding no matter what I was doing, even apps I wasn't using the one i get the most is for bugreport. then last night when I was doing some stuff on my computer while I was charging my g1 with the usb, I made the most retard mistake ever when I set my comp to sleep I forgot I was charging and I didn't eject. Now when ever i try to use my phone for more then a call or a text Its crashes to the boot screen with the G1 symbol and then restarts. And yes this also damaged my Sd card, I reformatted it last night and it was fine then this morning when it crashed again It said my sd card was damged and i need to reformat it again, I figured **** it I will buy a new one, a much better one then I had before because I run swapper so I figure that swapper had something to do with it bricking my sd card
as you can probably tell from reading this I am new to this rooting stuff and I really just want it to work right If you need more information just tell me I will gladly do anything I possible can to have my phone work smoothly again, I reside in Las vegas If any one is from there that is willing to help me I will gladly even bring it to you.
Thank you for your time.

do a wipe and flash a new rom
So basicly just re root the phone? If I do this can you tell me what I will lose in my phone? also will this completely fix my problem or is my actual phone damgaged?
will this also fix my sd?
bump bump bump
You don't have to reroot. Just get another rom or reflash the same rom and see if it still happens.
Just wipe and reflash..
however I like your idea better, buy a new G1 and send me your old on, everyone wins!
So I wiped my G1 and flashed Jf 1.5.1 abd1 onto it again and it seems to be working fine again, can any one tell me if there was a better choice then the jf rom? So know that I'm basicly back to square one,can any one point me to a thread or site that will tell me how to get the most out of it both app wise and performance wise.
thanks for the help from ever one who posted,I think I'll be stick'n to this forum for all of my android related questions, " oh **** do I hear dontation"!!!!

Hi, I recently flashed my phone to cyanogens 3.6.8.1 all was well until yesterday when the phone screen displayed vertical lines like a grey color, the phone could receive calls but from t mobile customer service and it was booting up tho I couldn't see the screen. Then I took the sim card out and the screen returned to normal but was stuck in the splash screen. I reflashed and sometime the next day it happened again, this time I took out the sim card and it went back to normal
Any ideas

Could you post a log of this? Could you also provide some more details about your set-up (a2sd? swap? comcache? spl/recovery?) and how did you get to this point (did you wipe before flash? did you run any back-up apps, what were you doing when it happened?)
Once we have that info we should be able to figure it out.
I started out with th jesus freak rom then I decieded to flash the cyanogens 3.6.8.1, I had trouble with the market because I hadn't wiped first, I did that and all was well for at least 5 days. I created an ext2 partition for apps2sd but I'm not sure if that worked. Then on the Saturday 6 days later I put fotmob on my phone so I could keep an eye on the opening premiership season put the phone in my pocket whilst at the football and 2 hours later the phone screen was dead, nobody could call me tho I know the phone was operating and booting only t mobile manage to get through, I tried a reboot, then took the sim card out and the screen went back to normal but was stuck on the splash screen. I tried fixing file ext but came as error asomething about the super block being unreadable tried manually but didn't work, tried backup still stuck, reflashed worked fine for. 20 hours then it happened again this time I wasn't doing anything with the phone no programs other than the usual running in the background, this time I removed the sim card and the phone went back to normal again for about 4 hours then it happened again this time removing the sim didn't work.straight away but eventually it came good again.
Its now 11 15 and its running fine again. I have noticed that I now only have one ringtone (dream theme) and one notification tone and I'm getting a few force closes tho I not sure what they are I will report them if and when I see them
you need to get audio resources and unzip to the sd card all the ringers. search xda for audio resources
The screen went dead again at 3pm this time after removing the sim card it stayed the same it was only after leaving the battery off it returned to normal again about 10 minutes later, I am also getting a vending core force close from time to time, please someone help me solve this issue.
P.s I've never actually seen the phone do this it happens when it is in my pocket when I get it out it happens also this time I have not installed any software and it is still happening

Because you lost your ringtones, it sounds like your SD card is acting funny, I would format it using this guide (make only 2 partitions for the time being, fat32 and ext3).
See if that works...May be complete reflash with wipe wouldn't be a bad idea neither.
That's all I can suggest at this point, I'll need to see a log to be anymore specific, but try this out, sounds like you've got nothing to loose
Good luck.
Thanks for your reply I am very greatful, I have tried a different sd card without setting up partitions and it still happens. I think the latter is true and a complete reflash is definately the thing to do.
I think this may be a hardware issue because as I mentioned it only happens when it has been in my pocket for a while, perhaps it is overheating or something.
I'll try a complete reflash and let you know if it happens again.
Wipe, re-flash, reformat your sd (or take it out altogether, just to rule it out see what happens... This is all I can tell you....
good luck
ok first off i love the fresh roms so im not bashing.
does anyone else have an issue that seams to be directly related to flashing the new fresh 2.1.1 rom.
when im in a call and end it with the power button it restarts the phone.
is this because of what i think it is or something else.
i wiped everything when i flashed so i dont know what else it could be, in the mean time i guess i have to go back to fresh 1.1 sense i cant find a fresh 2.0d download link anymore and i deleted my nandroid and the 2.0d rom off my computer like an idiot. uneless someone could point me to a 2.0d link

probably should be in q&a or fresh's thread but here is a link all fresh's downloads are on geekfor.me should be at the bottom
http://geekfor.me/category/android21/page/2/
I found that the restarting issue on my end was linked to the battery stats and roation stats. After i wiped those, for some reason, i stopped restarting.

Can you elaborate on this? How do you wipe these stats?
i had the same problem but it was on fresh and damage control, i figured out it was the app i was using to call people with...called quick connect...
it didn't happen if i dailed with the stock dialer or through people...

Alright I did everything mentioned, above. i wiped the battery and rotation stats in ra recovery i even re partitioned my sd card and did a wipe data/factory reset plus the ext and dalvik-cache. then re flashed fresh 2.1.1.
also i am not using any other dialer that i know of. just the one that comes backed in the rom.
so why am i still resetting randomly!!! it even did it when i was doing nothing at all not just in a call like before.
this is on two seperate sprint htc heros that this is happening to.
anyone please help!

couple questions.
1. are you using any aggressive process killers, like the one found in spare parts?
2. what, exactly, do you mean by resetting? do you mean a quick 10 second restart of rosie, or a full on 1.5 minute reboot?

sorry i took so long to reply.
no process killers.
Im now able to replicate it restarting (not randomly) if i let the phone go to sleep by its self and sit for a minute when i hit the end button to wake it up nothing lights up like it should instead it does a full on 1.5 minute reboot every time.
on a separate thread someone suggested i try a different battery because whenever they put a different battery in it stopped resetting. (I was not able to try this yet because i don't have any spare batteries laying around)
I just find this hard to believe only a few people are having these problems and why no one seems to have a definitive answer.
This is kind of one of those bugs where I have to say it's something going on with your phone. Fresh Rom 2.1.1 has been downloaded over 4000 times. I restart mine constantly while testing things which means I am constantly duplicating your situation of restarting the phone, letting it sleep, and then turning it on via the power button, and I have never had this happen.
Please post a debug log of it happening and we'll see if we can figure out why your phone is doing it.
My sister had this issue even on stock 1.5. Rooted, added recovery still had it. Flashed 2.0d, still had it, went to recovery and wiped battery stats.
Haven't had it happen since. Now on 2.1.1 and all is well...go figure.

thank you for helping flipz, sorry for thinking it was something to do with your rom (foot in mouth). I now believe it a hardware issue related to any 2.1 fw.
This has happened to me on 2 different phones. Mine and my friends. Mine restarted "randomly" once i wiped the battery and rotation stats and it fixed mine. My friends on the other hand i could not get to stop restarting for the life of me. So i was forced to switch back to a 1.5 fw rom.
Point being it will take me a few days to get back over there and put a 2.1 fw back on it and get a debug log off of it. for now i can try using his battery in my phone and see if i have any issues. im crossing my fingers in hope i will so we can buy a new battery and see if it goes away for him.
in the mean time i can post a debug log for my phone but it probably wont do any good
i will try to post the results of the battery swap later today.
again thanx flipz i am confident with your help we can resolve this.
ok i thought i attached a error log but i guess its too big, so ill try zipping it and attaching it.
hero
I noticed reinserting the root file helped me also make sure your not using otwidhet or super pc unless u have a rom for it i use fresh toast 2.1 no problems quickquickquick

I kind of a noob, what do you mean reinserting the root file? i thought the root was the main directory not a file.
Also i dont know what "otwidhet" or "super pc" are, im assuming im not using them if they didnt come with the rom. right?
whoops, i forgot to post the results of swapping my battery with my fiends to see if i could single out a bad bad battery.
i didnt have any luck making my phone reset itself with his battery. One of these days im going to buy a couple new batteries put on in my friends hero and flash fresh 2.1.2 on it. Im also going to try using different radios on a hunch from a different thread i read.
i dont mean to waste anyones time im just busy and messing with phone is something i cant devote alot of time to especially sense i put a 1.5 fw rom on my friends phone and he no longer has any issues.
thanks for the patients in helping me guys.
ok im at a loss. i really need your guys help.
I put a 2.1fw on my buddies phone. put my battery in his phone let it go to sleep by itself and hit the end button to wake it up and it still does a reset. now i guess im not sure if it s a full on reset but it takes about a minute to reset.
so i put his battery in my phone and let it go to sleep and het the end button to wake it up and it also reset, now i did not clear the battery stats either and now after one time i can not get my phone with his battery to self reset for the life of me...???
no matter what bettery i try his phone will not stop resetting.
im posting an error log from his phone i got off adb using
adb bugreport > errorlog.txt
is that what im suppose to do? please help i would have been just fine with the 1.5fw on his phone but there was an audio issue that on some calls the person on the other end could not hear him.
does anyone know if the flipz audio fix will work for that or is that not a good ides?
Here is his error log, i hope this is what im suppose to post.
if anyone has any ideas about the audio fix for the 1.5fw that would be awesome cause now i gotta go back to that becasue i cant leave his phone with porblems.
Could it be that it is just Sense restarting and not the whole phone. Try using Fresh 2.1.2 with LauncherPro and see if you still have the problems. Make sure that you are not using the vanilla launcher in 2.1.1 as I had several instances where it caused instability.

I dont think thats the issue, my phone now restarts itself abuot once a day and i am using launcher pro. i also have my friends battey in my phone. so i guess is could still be the battery.
Im still confused on what i have to do to get some help from the devs. i posted a error log like asked if i was suppse tp post something else could someone please tell me? this is getting extremely frustrating. am i the only one here???
please someone help.
So yesterday my wife sat her g1 in a cuphold with just the tiniest amount of liquid...she dried it out and it worked fine for a while
Then she started getting force closes on everything (myspace, facebook, weatherbug) Then the touchscreen quit working. She decides then to tell me about the liquid thing, but im thinking "this doesnt sound like liquid, it sounds like a software/rom issue"
So this is what I have done thus far.
Reflash CM-same issues
Wipe-didnt fix
Thinking it may be an SD card problem (apps force closing), I put my SD card in it-didnt fix it
Next step was reflash signed_dream_devphone_userdebug....whatever
Wiped, reflashed the above, then flashed CM to it.
Still no touchscreen!
Any ideas?
If not, its for sale!
UPDATE: Home for lunch, and im downloading a new copy of signed-Dream_devphone...going to try again
The force closes are software, I'd bet, but if after a full wipe and flash of CM the touchscreen isn't working, you may very well be looking at a hardware problem.
hey guys, I don't know what's going on with my S7 but yesterday was working fine and out of nowhere everything started to FC! From twitter to "Google Services Framwork", Gmail, browser, tweetdeck, calendar, voice, I can't pretty much use it anymore, I haven't done any new app installations so i don't know what's wrong! is it just me, or anyone else having this problem??
Any help will be much appreciated!
Thanks
That has happened to me 4 or 5 times. It's like half of the device gets erased but the apps are there. Everything force closes. I end up having to erase the device and re-install everything. Reboot into recovery if you can't figure it out and format the system and data. For some reason when i do that, i keep root. Not entirely sure how that happens, but one less step for me. I think root is power and one of the volume buttons.

ha! i remember I already did that. After the Update we had, and I exchanged mine for a new one I decided to stay with no root (i don't know why! lol) so I guess I'll reset everything and go back to root I figured at the end I was gonna do that, but I was trying to see if it was just me or there was a fix
thanks man!
ok, so since yesterday I've been trying to factory reset the DS, and when it boots back on, everything stays the same!
I'm a little confused now, if I take a picture and I turn the tablet off, when I turn it back on, the picture disappears. Same thing happens if I move widgets, delete or create new ones on the screen, they go back to as the configuration was on friday night! GV not working, and the last message that shows there, same thing, shows the last one on friday. I don't know what can I do.... should I call dell??
duck tape and dynomite
stupid thing started crashing yesterday FC this and FC that ....cant restore it as i no longer have write access to the internal sd card
1) tried nv flash
2) tried restoring from clockwork
3) tried pushing files through adb
4) tried fastboot ....
if i didnt just dump money into this thing id blow it up ......
any help would be appreciated.......any tips to fix it or kill it completely so i can get another one
actually deleted all of the files on internal sd card and uninstalled every program on the device looked completly stock ....rebooted it and it went back to how it was yesterday ......theres gotta be a reason why other are having the same problem that started on the same day .....maybe dell pushed an OTA update and screwed us ......just a thought cause mine was fine till i went 4g yesterday so my sis could post facebook pics ....not sure but hope we can figure this out
Samething happened to me
Hi, did you ever find a solution? my streak 7 was ran out of battery, before it shut off, the screen started flickering and then it turned off. after it came back on, it looked like it was fine, everything looked normal, but then everything started force closing, haven't found a solution

I'm running stock, and I discovered the hard way that you can't let the S7 battery run all the way down. The S7 will not power itself down in time. I had the same issue, and the only way around it was to do a complete factory reset, using the menu button from the main screen. I think the reset is in the "About" section, but I don't have my S7 with me now.
Being used to WM6, which powers the device down at 5%, I was not expecting the device to do this, but there it is.
dell streak 7
im not sure if I am the only one with this issue you but becareful with the streak 7 mine well both of mine wont charge properly and the newest one wont charge at all. i have to send it back to dell for them to fix it. Im not sure what cause this but my only advie is to never use a different charger for it only dell chargers. Im guessing that it messes up the battery callibration and then it gets really hot when charging
