What sort of set up are you running there?
Stock, non-rooted N1? Or did you upgrade to FroYo over an existing install using Paul's zip? Any applications installed? When is the phone freezing?
Would love to help, but I think we're going to need a little bit more information from you first.

Previously rooted N1 back to stock rom prior installing froyo from Paul's direct install file for rooted N1 because I lacked stock recovery image.
Basic apps installed like ebuddy news apps etc. didn't install anything different from old install.
Like I mentioned phone stalls in while in sleep mode. Need to pull battery. Cannot soft or hard reset phone.
Ive been reading a lot on xda and didnt notice this occurring in pther phones thats y i decided to open a new thread.
Any help is appreciated thanks!

Did you wipe? If not, usually a wipe helps. I wiped and have not had a single issue of FC...Freezing or anything. I went from Enom to Wipe to Paul's Zip with Radio.
I have the same problem. Until now the screen stayed black after the other party ended the call. Had to pull battery 3 times.
Problem exists even after reflashing, wiping and clearing storage.
Im om pre-rooted frf50 from paul. Gonna try with an older radio..

does it work?
Im having similar issues with my 2.2 installation. I have it installed on my wife's non-rooted N1.
Not just that but the market is not even usable. Even if I clear cache.
Again, her phone is not rooted, I wipped everything from her phone then applied Froyo and its been a nightmare. Her phone isn't even stable enough to use and I cant seem to figure it out.
I need to find a way back to 2.1 without having to root her phone. She is adamant about me not doing that to her phone even though Ive rooted all the phones I've ever used with no issues.
I was having the same problem on my N1. Started suddenly two days after the manual upgrade to 2.2. The phone would either freeze to a black screen or sometimes the live wallpaper would continue but the phone was unresponsive even to the power button. Needed to pull the battery to restart.
It stopped after I:
* Turned off live wallpaper
* Uninstalled LauncherPro Beta
* Removed the Pure Calender Widget (was broken after 2.2 update anyway)
* Charged the battery (was down to below 10% when it started happening repeatedly).
Anyone one of them (or none of them) could have been the culprit. My guess it was one of the last two (PureCalender or battery) but haven't had time to troubleshoot it. Try some of these and see if it helps.
Ive tried all that on her phone. I just wiped it again completely and re flashed just in case that was the issue. Phone still had all the issues described in this thread.
I wiped the sd card, wiped all previous system files via the stock recovery and re flashed the update zip. You cant get anymore clean than that and its still so unstable the phone its unusable. I have to either hope soft booting works or pull the battery as a last ditch.
Is there any way I could downgrade her phone to 2.1 without rooting? I tried the shipping rom in the sticky above but it seems that isn't totally legit for stock use because the phone doesn't like how its signed.
I guess I could call google/htc tomorrow but who knows where that'll get me. The only bonus iud that her phone is not rooted so she didn't really have her warranty voided.

I was worried if I was the only one with this problem. Phone improved today (3rd day of using) but I didn't do anything to it. Only hanged once when someone called. Hanged on calling in screen and had to pull battery.
Only once compared to 7 times yesterday!

Yes until now it does. Sometimes the power button is reacting a little late but i havent had to pull the battery yet with the older radio.
You might want to download it again and flash that to see if you had a corrupt download. First copy all data from the sd and partition it. Just make everything fat. I havent used the stock recovery in ages so I cant recall if you can partition from there, if you cant, do it on the pc. Wipe everything that the stock recovery can wipe. Then try to flash your new download of the update. You can do this fairly quickly and its worth a try before you go through the process of reverting to 2.1.

I'll give this a shot when I get home from work. I'll report back on if it works or not. Thanks for the idea.
Interesting, not that I'm complaining, but after a few days of using 2.2 it seems more stable now....? haven't had any freezes today...yet.
Power button response also getting better.

Hi everyone.
So, this is my problem:
http://images.orkut.com/orkut/photo...9E7ePr_8Am1T1UHiPgwGpeh7tb_Dn59t24Hsb_ZWU.jpg
My wi-fi is turning on by itself after i manually turn it off. And even when i set plane mode the wi-fi is still on. At first i thought it was impossible and i was dreaming but no. This is really annoying me, my battery won't last a day with my wifi always on.
If anyone could possibly help me with this problem i would really aprecciate it! =(
Oh and i already tried wiping all user data and tried flashing other roms as well. I tried shadowmod and cyanogen too. currently i'm using the froyomod 2.7. All have the same problem. I really don't know what to do.

Do you have any 3rd party power saving apps installed? For example, I have an app called "Network Switcher" installed, that given certain conditions, it turns on or off 3g and wifi. I have it set to turn 3g and wifi off between 11:15pm and 7:15am if the screen is off. (this helps save a ton of battery while I'm sleeping)
Your screenshot doesn't look like a clean stock ROM, so even if you did wipe data, it looks like you installed some stuff. Did you do a complete wipe back to stock, and it's still doing this?
No, i don't use any apps to save battery or manage my networks. And yes, everytime i install or upgrade to a new rom i wipe all data. I haven't tried using the 2.2 stock rom to see if i'd have the problem there too. I'm currently using froyomod, i have always used modified roms and i'd never had this sort of problem before.

So when did it start happening? Did you notice it after you installed something? Or after you flashed your current ROM? Did you have anything installed before that may have been saved to your SD card using apps2sd, and it somehow got "lost", but the setting remained?
If I were you, I would flash the stock 2.2.1 SBF (get it here: http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone221), and reflash the latest FroyoMOD on top of that. First back up all your app data using TB though, and restore afterwards. That may be your only hope.
I noticed it after i installed Froyomod 2.7, but i don't think it was the rom since nobody else complained about a problem like that. And i haven't installed any different apps than the ones i've always used.
Thank you for the advice! I'll try to flash the SBF file right now, and i will also erase my SD Card, just in case.
I'll let you know after it's done. Thanks again!!
Unfortunately i did everything as i was told and nothing worked, the problem won't go away. Guess i'll have to use the 2.1 stock rom. It's better than having my wi-fi always on. But thanks for the help!! =)

Turns out you're not the only one... see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1064823
They did not have any solutions that worked for them either though. Sorry.
Yes, a few people had this problem as well, but nobody said if they got to fix it or if it stopped.
The most annoying thing: I went back to 2.1 stock rom because i thought it would stop, when i installed it was ok but after a few hours that i'm using the rom the problem started again.
This really sucks. I will never buy any motorola products no more.
Anyway, thanks for your help. It's really good to have helpful people on this forum.
Turning the airplane mode on will not disable your wifi... only the radio(antena).
The question is: does your radio works normally?
Sent from my Milestone using XDA Premium App
Yes, everything is working normally, only the wifi that won't turn off.
Ok... there are two free apps on the Market that might fiz your problem.
1) Wifi Fixer
2) FXR Wifi fix and Rescue
Try it and let us know.

I had already tried wifi fixer before, didn't work.
Tried FXR and didn't work as well! Honestly i'm giving up.
I will sell this phone as soon as i get the chance and i'm never gonna buy a motorola ever again! -__-'

Hi, I think the problem is coming from the ROM.
First you should wipe cach/data. I mean factory reset, then download a newly fresh Open Recoveries, and do the flash ROM again and place it into SD card (remember to delete the old one: Nandroid and Open recoveries folders and update.zip file). THIS STEP IS IMPORTANT.
Here is the link of CM7 ROm but very light. it si good for MS than ever:
http://www.mediafire.com/?hdymcqvueo8opm9
Below is the google apps package:
http://www.mirrorcreator.com/files/GV5OSDAN/Gapps_CM7_new.zip_links (including Gtalk)
I use it and it works well.
First i want to thank Katdog75 for the find!! Tech1208 for the search... The native wifi tether hot spot seams to not be available unless you have that activated with your carrier, well you can now switch the ext. jar file in the rom, just go to system / framework and find the ext. jar file, delete it or copy it to different location if you want to keep the file. After deleting the file, copy the downloaded ext. jar file into the framework folder and re-flash your rom. You will now be able to activate wifi tether hot spot.

Im on Desensed 1.6, I extracted the htc wifi hotspot system apk from virtuous inquisition and instated it as a system app for my current rom. I replaced the ext.jar and now it seems to work.
Afterwards however if I want to use normal wifi on my phone, wifi wont turn on. . I made sure that wifi hotspot was no longer active, yet it still doesnt work.

Yes, did reboot my phone before using it, and yes when the wifi stops working and I reboot my phone it starts to work again. I just wood like to be able to use wifi hotspot and then use wifi afterwards without a reboot.
I now however have a different issue. The app does not work at all. It worked only the first time I used it. Now, it creates a network, but their is not internet.
Again, I acquired this apk from another rom (and yes I did change the permissions) and I am using Desensed 1.6. Is there any other htc framework or maybe an apn that this app relies on to work?

Havent tried with that rom, as i am the Pegasus rom by koz...You could try to remove that apk that you installed from the other rom, and then see if it works correctly. There may be some kind of conflict between the two...If all else fails, try to put the apk into a diff rom, along with the ext jar file and see if they work together.
You're welcome guys!
Does anyone know much about these ext.jar files? I have been trying to modify the file to get beats notificatiom to work as well but struggling with it

As long as you deleted the jar file that was on the phone, then copied the downloaded jar file, and there is just one file in the framework folder, then you did it right. Did you remember to wipe your cache and delvik cache before you flash or re-flash the rom?

I Have created a CM7 rom for rooted 621 and it should a lot easier to use now that I have tested personally and everything works as it should no need for gapps as it has vendor.apk in it and it will update to playstore.

1:Back-up always
2:full wipe
3:install rom via CWR or bootstrap
4:Gapps arent needed but you may flash just to be comfortable
5: reboot
6: leave me feedback
7: enjoy

Update:
First I tried it without gapps. Everything booted fine, but there was no market nor would accounts/ sync let me add Google account.
So, I rebooted into recovery, which worked fine, and flashed gapps.
This time on boot, I actually got the Droid X welcome screen, was able to put in Google info, and market initiator ran and updated.
After that everything worked fine.
Tested Bluetooth, Messages, Gps and Calls. Didn't get chance to try Wifi yet, but I'm sure it works since everything-else does.
The only thing that Would be better is an updated Superuser. The 1 included will NOT update SU Binary. I think it's the old edify binary. Even by updating Superuser in the market WON'T help. Although an easy fix is to get RootUninstaller and uninstall Rom Superuser, then download new 1 from the market and install.
Keep up the hard work. Nice Rom.
Finally, does this works for any other gb kernel besides .621?
Anybody please tell us!
Nope, but maybe yes

No prob Kiladar. I think if someone is going to comment on someones work, they should at least review it and be as informative as possible. It makes it easier
on the devs to look at potential probs/fixes too.
Oh yea, I also got to looking into your system/app folder in your zip. The vending.apk is Not in there, which i would say is why I had to flash the gapps. Just wanted you to know.
Also there is no "boot.img" (which is kernel right?) in the new dwnload.
Right, I will update OP saying to flash gapps rather then say not needed

wifi works just fine with it, and I agree bout the updated superuser since you cant uninstall the one you have with it which means you also cant update to the new superuser because they are different volumes but over all nice ROM.:good:

I had it working on mine but my .605 was the .621/.605 deodexed hacked version cause I was on the .621 before I did the work around on the magic 5 route, originally I did the .604 work around but it should work on the .605 stock rooted, but then again I was also running the kernel for the .621 sooooo if the kernel is the key for running it maybe you cant.

I was able to flash a cm9 based rom and got it set up just fine. All this from the same card on the same phone. Sooo I am attempting to format the card just in case I have bad sectors or something.
Luckily my DX is no longer activated and just keeps me from killing my SGS3 with flashes.:silly:

I hear ya, I had the same prob with sd card so i formatted mine as well, problem was still there though. whenever i tried to install a rom from sd card via rom manager the problem was i kept getting the message saying waiting for sd cart to mount then it would say error bla bla bla sending log file to cwm ect ect ect.... i dont know exactally how i fixed that, all i know is i installed another rom, like cm7 or cm9 for instance and after that whenever i went to back up rom it worked fine ever since.... maybe something flashes over correcting the sd card problem when you install a rom... I know rom manager checks to verify the marker on sd card and thats what your problem is I believe.
Try doing this, try installing a rom cm7/cm9 without making a backup (i know you could lose everything if it fails but its the only way i know that fixed mine) after you have installed cm7/9 go to rom manager and hit the Backup Current Rom it should reboot you to cwm recovery and make an auto backup, if it does this without throwing up the waiting for sd card to mount error stuff and it runs the backup program and then reboots you it should fix your sd card problems.....
Review this rom
this is by far a ROM with the least lag by far i tried liquid ICS and plenty others don't know what it is but the lag is really minimal runs really smooth i only have this for like 3 hours but will update soon
pls hit thanks if i helped
I realised the GPS location doesn't work since I installed CM12.1. I deleted everything to make sure it was nothing I installed or modified afterwards. I tried RR from scratch too, and the problem persists.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
EDIT: It works on ComputerFreek ROM, as it worked on stock 5.1.
I too saw this issue over the weekend. For me it wasn't that it wouldn't work, but wouldn't update as I drove. If I exited navigation and reentered it would find my updated location and stay there. I am on RR and love it else wise.

That is what I saw when using Maps. But after checking with other apps (GPS Test, GPS Status) I realised it was not getting GPS position, so I infered the location shown when launching Maps was from Wifi and Radio signals and that's why navigation wouldn't work.

Yeah computerfreek is stock based so that makes sense.
I'm having no luck as well. Since it found my location the first day I assumed it was working but I now realize it is not gathering GPS data.

Seems that going back to stock and then getting agps lock, power down then restore ROM GPS then works.
Thanks to baybutcher.
just freeze motgeofences apk with titanium backup and then install TopNTP from the play store, apply the derek gordon file and reboot
Did, and didn't work. This was an issue on the RAZR m as well. Plauged some and not others. Was also solved the same way.
Has this issue been resolved. I am having the same issue. I have tried the fastboot erase modemst1 and modemst2 method which failed due to incorrect partion name as well as the freese geofencesvc and install topntp method, which has failed to yield proper GPS only wifi.

You can fix it by getting a solid GPS lock on stock-based ROM and then you can flash the ROM. You should get a lock after.

Thank you for the reply. I want to clarify before I apply this. I boot to recovery, flash stock ROM, acquire GPS lock by using Google maps or some other app, then reboot to recovery and flash cm back on? Thanks again.

Yep, you got it! If you every reflash firmware, you'll need to do that again. Just for future reference.

You are very welcome! To really make sure you use GPS, you can use GPS on your way home
FWIW I had similar issues, tried everything except flashing a stock ROM. I read that some users are experiencing the same problem and that it was fixed in 6.0.1. I was able to get my GPS working with flashing an updated ROM.
Here is the ROM I flashed that is confirmed working in TWRP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-maxx/development/rom-t3341788 (build 2016-04-07)
I also flashed this baseband / radio package in TWRP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/development/droid-turbo-xt1254-bootloader-radio-t3259327 (version SU4TL-44)
I don't know if flashing the baseband / radio package was absolutely necessary, but it didn't break anything on my and was able to successfully retrieve GPS data use the GPS Status app in the play store.
Hope this helps. :good:
Have you tried installing Motorola Modality and Motorola Sensor Services? The ROM that I use enables download of Motorola apps and these two contain drivers necessary for things like the gyroscope to work at all and the GPS may be included in that.
Made twrp backup, Flashed stock rom, acquired GPS lock, restored twrp backup. And it appears all is working! Thank you!

Never mind, it changed when I installed the theme engine. Crisis averted.

Wondering if anyone has any suggestions for this issue on a stock, locked, non-rooted turbo?
I did a full wipe but still have the same issue and am just trying to avoid another wipe and checking after reinstalling each app. It finds my location but doesn't update when using gps thru Google maps.
Reinstalling apps is one thing, but having to reinstall and then drive around after each one is more of a pain.
