Your best bet is to wipe your phone and flash a fresh rom onto it. What rom are you using?
its regular updated 2.2 nexus build number FRF91 idk anything else? its not rooted
Oh ok so purely stock.
1. Backup all your contacts:
*Open Contacts app
*Press menu softkey, select Import/Export
*Export your contacts to sd card
2. Go to settings -> privacy -> factory data reset [THIS WILL WIPE ALL DATA ON THE PHONE]
Your phone should restart, and you should be good to go.
thanks bro... why u think its glitching liek that because maybe all the apps i got like 20 from market and task killer? or what can it be? by the way i factory restored it once not because of this problem but jsut to clear all apps quickly... so i just did it lets see how it goes from now....
No problem, I'm here to help.
I remember reading recently that task killers from the market actually may do more harm than good. I don't exactly remember why, but that may be your problem...
P.S. I always thought task killers required root...I guess you learn something new every day
hahaha true true.. so these problem u heard about before or first time?
I've never heard of your specific issue but anything is possible
gotcha so right now i download most apps such as aim,calorie counter, magic marker, pandora, yahoo mail, drink recipe, shazam, shopsavvy, WHERE thats about it.. no task killers no battery displayers no nothing.... hopefully this problem wont occur....
Good. Just send me a PM if you run into the issue again
gotcha.. thanks anyone got any ideas why it would occur..... apps? virus?
Were you using a program to customize the icon? Like Folder Organizer?
nope.. but i did have astro zipper program i had lock up 2.0 i had werid thigns just got a habit of downloading i enedup delting lots but problem occured i just did a factory reset so far no problem.....

From what you're explaining, its seems you're experiencing the touchscreen issue. Most if not all of the N1's have this problem. It's a known defect that HTC chooses not to admit too. As of now there's only a temp fix which is to press the power button on & off. Its a problem that randomly occurs. There's nothing that'll specifically trigger the problem, it just happens when it happens. Flashing to a custom rom will not solve your problem becuz its hardware related. If you haven't voided your warranty in any way, your best bet is too warranty exchange/repair your device until its fixed.
ya im going to call warrernty now and see what the deal is!
Hi all,
I've been having some random reboots w/ my N1. I got the ATT version w/ 2.3.3 Gingerbread (Latest OTA) Also happened while running Froyo
Not rooted, all stock.
Carrier Cable & Wireless Panama City, Panama
I have already wiped the phone via the security menu and via the recovery boot and doesn't work
I have tried to recreate the problem but I haven't been able to isolate to a particular application or moment that could cause the problem.
Could the 3G data connection cause the problem? I also read about overheating but the problem is completely random.
I would appreciate any tips.
Rob
Suggest you try running a log cat to help identify the issue...

Any particular recommendations from the app market?

Long time since I've used one...
Download a few, and see which you like. Some let you filter results by significance, others display in different colors, etc. They'll all give you the same info...

Log
Alright here is the log.
My guess is that this is like when Windows creates the minidumps when you get a BSOD. Let me know what to look for and again thanks for all the assistance.
I think I might have traced the problem to the charger. If use the phone for browsing, youtube, FB, IM, email etc etc. I can open all the apps and use them w/o the phone restarting but as soon as I plug in the wall charger or USB data cable it starts restarting. I have to remove the battery and then put it back and power on and let it charge until full. While charging I can use some apps but I try not to use the phone that much since it might restart.
The phone is the usual warm when is charging so I doubt is overheating
Anyone having this kind of problem?
Giving up
Well after a few months trying to figure out what is going on with my GN1, I decided to call it quits and call HTC to get a replacement.
My guess is that since the problem happens mostly when the phone is charging it could be a overheating problem. The same thing happens when you have a portable or desktop computer with overheating problems, it either starts rebooting, becomes really slow or shuts down.
Lets see if the replacement works better or I will have to sell the phone and maybe go back to iOS. :-/
I'm running SD3 and some time on monday I noticed my gmail wasn't syncing automatically. I had turned off data because i was in the bowels of a hospital for work and the data was draining my battery. Turned it back on when i left. Ever since then, my google accounts haven't been syncing, and I have tried everything. I've been looking everywhere and the only thing I can find is anyone that has a similar problem told to make sure the account is checked.
Herein lies my problem, there is no box to check anymore. I have no idea if this is new or not. does anyone know what might have happened? or if there is any way to fix it without wiping and reflashing and all that?
Data manager in battery saver settings?
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
data saver is off, phone is in performance mode. I have since tried reflashing the rom, no good. Just got home not long ago, so I'll charge my phone and try going to factory default tomorrow I guess. Would love to figure this out though so it doesn't happen again. its the weirdest thing.
My vivid is resetting itself every night (bright white screen wakes me up). It is fine during the day but at least one a night (while charging) it resets. I sent logs to HTC and opened ticket but they don't have anything. I looked through the logs and found that battery temperature alarms with the battery reaching 235 and then slowly coming down to 226, then fatal reset with call alarm type 0 func alarm_triggered+0x0/0xa8, 132160779490000000000 then charm_efffatal: charm got errfatal interrupt
Anybody else see this? Should I exchange the phone?
I would, I very rarely get a reset, maybe once a week?

where do you view logs? Mine has reset ~3times yesterday, and about once a day otherwise. NOT STOKED.

I looked at the Tell HTC alert which gives you the options to send the log to them and to preview it before you send. You can also get alogcat from market to see (its a very long text file).

I just saw this thread about 20 minutes ago, and thought this hasn't happened to me, but then my phone had an abnormal reset about 5 minutes ago. I was checking out best buys add , so using the flash pretty heavily, I noticed my phone actually got hotter than it ever had before, but I have had other HTC phones get hotter, so idk...
It did the send report, but I didn't realize that we could see it before we send it, anyway we can see it after we send it?
Oh yeah, for some reason,before it did this the browser kept randomly turning off, taking me to the home screen...did it while I was just reading the threads on xda... Then poof...
First real issue I have had with the phone
happened to me today while i was driving. The first time it happened. I wouldn't have known if it didn't notify me about the reset.
Last night it got up to 259 and slowly came down to 226, then fatal error and reset. I don't know how to read the report to htc after you close the Tell HTC app.
Reset Happened to Me
I had been using Backcountry Navigator and the Camera app while hiking. I had been running both about an hour and a half, switching between the mapping app and the camera. Poof! Shut down. I can't speak to the temperature issue, but I have a case on the Vivid that might keep heat in and prevent me from feeling it. It came back up and asked if I wanted to send the error log to HTC. I did. it will be interesting to see if this gets fixed in an update.
this may be off subject...but browser seams to crash often...is this common on android phones...one moment I'm surfing then poof, browser disappears without warning and I'm back on the home screen.
When my phone crashed, it was after a couple of these browser poofs...I noticed it stops for some time if I delete the cookies, catch, etc...
Had the same issue a few times myself.

I got a new battery from HTC last week and that seems to have fixed the problem. No resets since.
Out of curiosity, I tried Google’s Find My Device and it worked very well with one (I think) major fault. As soon as I tried it, a notification appeared on my phone, Device located, Find My Device located this device.
Now to me, it seems silly for the phone to advertise the fact that it has been found to any thieves.
So far I haven’t found a way to turn it off.
Anyone know a way around it please?
Best regards,
Do not worry to much as I do think - it will need root to disable this , but maybe Im wrong ?
In my logic thieves know about phone tracking as it is nothing new it was with the android for years . Iphone etc
When thieves stole the phone I think they will turn off the phone + second the phone will go to flasher to clean from google accounts etc to make as reset phone
and from then Phone can go to overseas market so if it is stolen and you have reported IMEI they can use in other country
Security for me is to keep all my data on phone encrypted so than if phone stolen or reset there will be no my data my contacts pictures messages etc Phone is hardware yes will be sad if stolen , but images messages is my life and to find some information on you tube or naked pictures on net can change life forever

Easily solved by not keeping naked images of yourself on the phone :laugh:
But in any case, seeing naked images of me won't ruin my life, it will ruin thieves'!
When the device located notification shows long press on it, it will take you to app info, turn off notifications, all of them for the app.
