Hey guys , I', having a problem powering on my Droid.Almost every time I try and turn it on , the Backlight of the screen will come on for a few seconds then shut off. I then need to take the battery out etc just to make it do that again. Then every once in awhile after a few minutes of playing with it , I would finally get to the Dual core screen. Now this has only been happening since I installed safestrap V3 , I was fine with all the previous safestraps. But now , even after a reflash , it does this. Any suggestions?

Are you running a custom ROM or is this the stock slot?
Hey , sorry its taken so long to reply. And yes , I'm using the stock slot , and sometimes I use custom slots. But no matter what kind of ROM is it , now it continues doing it.

Hello everybody !
I use a stock 2.2 ROM on my N1 for a while and started to experience a strange problem - when i switch on the device it vibrates 7 times and does not turn on. The screen is black.
Removed the battery, tried again, the same result.
What this could mean ? Please, help !

Try reflashing the stock RUU rom... should fix it. If not, you need to call for support.
The vibrates mean the phone can't initialise... normally fixed by a battery pull.

Try reflashing the rom.
yess !! For all newbes ====>>
after flashing your phone with CUstom rom or stock if you have problem reflash if CWM work or if dont work try with odine in download mode if doanload mode work is great for you past any Stock rom you wont [VER example 2.2,2.3 etc...etc] after this if all work fine and phone reset like factory you are free to past or not a custom rom is simple for all question about how to flash via CWM or odine searche in the XDA forum for [TUTORIAL] thanks and good luck !!! ^^
No no no guys.. don't bother with reflashing and stuff, that's not the problem.. I had the same problem and I googled it for months until I've learned its a Samsung wifi hardware related problem and mostly Galaxy devices are affected. Something is wrong when phone goes in standby. It continues to work but you can't wake it and you have to reinsert battery to get it on again.
The solution is to install a tiny app called Wake Lock, it's there on market.. it keeps phone awake even when you lock screen. My phone doesn't shut off anymore and I can finally rely on it. I don't have to think anymore and check all the time if the phone is off and if I'm going to miss a call...
The alternative is to turn off wifi before you lock screen but I think that most of us need wifi on all the time to get mails and messages on time
true, this is a samsung prob it gave me a hard time many months back.
but also make sure u've wiped data before flashing.
but seriously why is this in accessories?!
I flashed many ROMs and wiped data but my Mini was still shutting down.. the Wake Lock is the real fix, I had no shutdowns for months now
I have the same problem!
Me too have the same prob.. ny sgm also runs in rc5.4 shuts down itself

Alright so the short story of it ...i was on darky`s rom then decided to go on MIUI, after that i decided to install my apps and games and all that , after installing backstab game it give me a Force close and i deleted the game, after reboot i still got the FC (but i dont think that has anything to do with the problem) then my phone after boot when hes doing all the SD scanning and stuff got stuck in the SD card scan process i think and then freezes, at first i thought its bc of the MIUI rom and after several tryes whipes and allot of that i changed to a JVT stock rom (and installed root and cwm) but still after i start my phone, the screen freezes and doesnt do anything.. but when i press home button or back button they both light up or when someone calls me it works ..onlly thing is , nothing happens on my phone i cant even see if i`m getting a call or anything, i hope somebody can help me with this and sorry for my english and for the unecesary information ..i just tried to explaine everything that happend. Ty!
well i never realize the problem can be this simple and a memory card can do all this ....the problem was the card....all works fine now
I had a similar problem with the cell of a friend, after changing the external memory, no longer occurred
I am on stock ICS DDLR9 , I observed this issue 2 days back , I didnt change any settings / new apps around the time.
I tried uninstalling the screen off and No LED apps , but still problem exists .It appear ~10 sec of turing on the screen and may repeat after some time , irrespective of the apps running , even camera.
A short video attached.( 2 videos joined)

Ok Thanks , thats what samsupport also recommended
I was a bit worried on EMMC brick , Finally I tried with this script and all fine now .Now the big job is to restore all back ,,,
Hmmm... Good news... wont be a big job if you have a TB backup.
I'm using mi3 with Euphoria-OS 0509 version. My phone will suddenly shutdown itself even the battery is full.
I tried re-flash this ROM, but no help.
It happens every time when I use the phone in no time. But It won't happen when charging.
Maybe there's a problem on your phone's battery. Try to bring it on a service center.

What do you mean by "suddenly shutdown itself"?
Do you see 1) the closing down routine? Or 2) does the phone simply not respond to pressing the power button?
If it's 2), plenty of ROMs exhibit the "screen OFF death", where the phone is actually still active but you can't get the screen to light up. try flashing another ROM. Paranoid Android is the most stable ROM for me.
If it's 1), still try flashing another ROM, and it it is still closing down, it's a hardware issue (hopefully battery), so service centre time.

In my case, my phone's screen will suddenly frozen while I'm using, and turn off itself. I need to hard reboot the phone. I used flashed this rom few months ago and change to PAC rom, no such problem until I flash this rom again, all roms were clean flash and the battery was calibrated. So I think it might be the hardware problem.

Well, if the phone was OK with a different ROM, that implies your current ROM is the problem - try another one.
I recall having had the same behaviour in the past, when I was trying a lot of ROMs in quick succession - so I don't know which one(s) it was.
All the same, it doesn't sound like hardware/battery. Make a Nandroid backup in recovery, then flash eg PAC ROM or Paranoid Android - wait a day before adding all your apps etc - and see if you get that issue again.

OK, I got some conclusions, and it might be a hardware problem.
First, I replaced the battery with same ROM, it still got SOD.
Then I flash Omni, PAC, Euphoria-OS, all got SOD like before.
So I return to MIUI, no SOD, but I got random reboots and sometimes Wi-Fi will disconnect itself even in its range.
Now I'm using Ivan's AOSP, still got random reboots and Wi-Fi problem.
And now I need this phone to work because I don't have a backup, waiting for new Nexus!!
