[Q] GT-I9001 Shuts down several times each day - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I have no idea what to do anymore. My Samsung GT-I9001 shuts down several times each day - its really annoying.
In the beginning I had the original Android installed and very soon the phone started to shut down, reboot, or to freeze.
I flashed the phone with the latest Gingerbread version. The phone still shut down, but it didnt freeze or reboot anymore. However, since that I had problems with my WLAN connection. Most time the phone didnt connect automatically to my WLAN and it disconnected the connection after some time although the signal was very good.
Because of these problems I flashed my phone with CyanogenMod 9 RC (Build 4) yesterday. Some hours after the flash my phone shut down again. Today it did the same again. Apart from that, everything seems to work fine.
Does CM9 have some kind of log files where I could check why my phone is shutting down? Or do you have any other ideas I could try?
Thank you very much!

[Q] Xperia T turning off when connected to network.

Help!! My XT has been running fine since I got it last September however since yesterday my device just shuts down when connected to network. Not a restart I actually have to physically turn it back. My device runs fine in airplane mode but as soon as I turn airplane mode off 3 seconds later off.
I am running a locked boot loader with non rooted 141 loaded through PCC so completely stock setup.
Is this looking like a hardware issue possibly or will reloading the stock firmware fix this?
Thanks
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda app-developers app
A quick update:
Issue sorted its self out in the evening, Managed to get conected to a network but only with data off, by the morning all was working fine again.
BUT
Later on saturday I had exactly the same cycle of issues again.
Device was fine all day yesterday YAY
However today has seen a return to being dead.
The difference being I didnt drive anywhere yesterday along with this rareity known as "British Summer". We have had some very warm days of recent and I am assuming the shutting down is a fail safe as the device gets too warm.
I guess there is nothing I can do but ride this out. Given we only have this sort of weather for about a week or so a year(if at all).
How do you guys who live in the more consistently warm climates cope with this device which clearly has heat issues?
Issue is getting much worse.
All last night it was out of action worrying as I use it as an alarm so ran it over night in airplane mode.
This morning working fine but now turns off everytime I send a text message.
I had an issue similar to this but it was whenever i connected to a particular WiFi network. For me changing the WiFi channel worked.

No issues linked to WiFi seen here just when connecting to network.
issues have only come up since I updated to 141. everyone says this one prevents these issues which I never saw on earlier softwares.
I have done a repair through PCC and will see how that goes now.
Ok, device is not fixed by the repair.
I am no longer having the device randomly shut down completely but the the device is restarting. It has happened 4 times in the last hour.
1- As soon as sent a text.
2- Moving some apps around in the draw
3- Sending another text
4- unlocking phone
Does anyone have any ideas at all what is wrong with my device. Running smoothly for so many months and then now phone is becoming completely unusable.
Not sure if related but issues dont seem to arise when on charge and issues today only started once batter got below 60%.

Phone Keeps turning off after updated software

Hi actually I've got Xperia ZL and having serious issues with it. Ive posted thread in ZL but unfortunately no one can help so i thought id try here. Flashed .244 software and now whenever I turn data on and try maps it switches off.
Re flashed rom again via flashtool but still experiencing same issue. Flashed older fw but still problems persists. Anyone can help please?
Sometimes it won't turn back on have to wait min or so. At times it turns off at boot animation Or worst have to connect to charger and it turns back on.
I've only experienced this when mobile data is turned on and connecting to maps.

[Q] Phone powers off and resets

Hello lads! The last few days I have been trying to fix a huge problem with my Galaxy S4 i9505. I had been using the Google 4.4 rom for almost a month without any problem. One day, when my phone was low on battery it shutted down and I plugged it in my charger to power it on again. When it turned on I was prompted to the screen you see when you use the 4.4 rom for the first time. I had all my apps but everything was resetted. Every setting, all the app data, messages, etc. I thought this was a one time thing so I used about an hour to get everything back to normal again. Then the next day, same happened again. Phone turned off because of low battery, and everything was reset. I tried to google it but with no luck, so I did a factory reset and flashed the newest Google rom (4.4.2) with a new kernel called Ktoonsez. Got everything back to normal again and used my phone for a couple of hours before it just suddenly shutted down once again, but this time with almost full battery. When i tried to turn it on I was stuck on the Google loading animation and had to reflash 4.4.2. It turned back on and this time I decided to let the phone stay stock to see if any of my problems was caused of my apps or settings. It lasted for 2-3 days before the same thing happened again... I tried to flash different modems, other roms and firmwares but nothing have helped so far. I am also prompted with a message each time I turn the phone on which tells me that com.android.phone has stopped working. I have tried several factory resets, wiped dalvik, wiped cache, but still has the same problem... I have now given up trying and wonder if anyone of you know what I can do to fix the problem? Any tip is much appreciated and I hope to hear from you! Thanks!
edit: figured out I posted this is the wrong forum as this is for s4 active and i have a i9505. Sorry! Anyway, please comment if you know how to fix it. Thanks!

Urgent help needed: Phone reboots continuosly after setup

I am currently experiencing continuous reboot on my Single Sim Z3+ phone on .253 firmware. It used to be ok but about a week ago I started experiencing this problem as soon as I reboot the phone after setting it up from a fresh install with full wipe. It seems to work normal on earlier builds like 28.0.A.8.266 so only happens on 32.1.A.1.185; 32.2.A.0.224 - .253. I repeat, I have done fresh install with Full wipe several times but problem still exists. Urgent help needed.
Thanks

Hello yawo76,
I have the same device, and I had the same problem, what I did is the next:
With flashtool, download the stock firmware via xperia firm on the same tool (I have successful with E6553_32.2.A.0.253_1295-0156_R6C), after that, in the options, be sure that the MiscTA Exclude options are check, that's the clue. After that complete the setup menu, and try again.
Regards! and sorry for my horrible english.
I do have the same issue. I have Z3+ Dual. Random reboot and/or sleep of death.
What I saw from other posts about hardware issue (no other proof), is about the NFC antenna. But I tried and nothing changed.
I have my phone fresh ROM .253 MM installed and click all the way to home screen and let it sit. Well, nothing happened for many hours 5-6hr. Almost every other hardware functions off. However, once I turned on WIFI, something happened. Blank screen and 3 red LED blinks to reboot. A few moments later at home screen.
Soon, sleep of death (SOD). It is like, when the phone is standby (black screen sleep), when I pushed power button to wake the phone, it won't turn screen on. Like it's hang or something. No choice but to hard reset so that I could turn back on.
Then, I played with WIFI setting and saw a "Keep Wifi On during Sleep". I switched to "never" and tried let it sit again. I found out problem was gone for 10 hours (this is best record now, usually 2-3 hours, reboot happened).
I am still monitoring.
Wish you can try and confirm this.
I ran many tests about this issue. Found out it was the material of board or CPU or power which was not made strong enough. I tried tuning the CPU a little (just like PC of CPU tuning). So that it will not cause SOD, random reboot issue. It was also adjusted such that the battery saves much and prolong the usage of the phone.
With sitting of standby the phone is not running warm. Messages or phone calls will not delay in receiving. Plus, it draws about 2% of juice during standby of 6-8 hours.
Worth the try.

(Problem) S5 G900A keeps restarting

Hi guys. This issue just started happening a couple of days ago, it started when I was playing games (phone wasn't hot) then it turned off by itself. My battery was still at 80% so I turned it back on, after it started saying "starting apps" it turned off again and the phone is now constantly rebooting. It doesn't seem to be bricked at all as it sometimes boots to the menu but when i start tapping on an app it shuts off and does the constantly rebooting issue again. It could be a hardware issue which means I'm gonna need to send my phone to the service center for a repair but one thing that makes me think there could be a way of fixing this without paying a technician is, when i boot to download mode, it doesn't do its constant reboot issue. I was even able to flash a firmware via Odin but when the phone started to boot after firmware installation, It did the spontaneously rebooting in the middle of the boot process again. If any of you guys have any idea on how to fix this or if there's even a way to, Please help me. Thanks! Cheers!

Try flashing the experimental firmware from the rooting guide, and if that doesn't work then it is most likely a hardware issue, and I have a strong suspicion that it is.
If you have an external SD card, remove it and see if problems persist. Honestly that sounds like a firmware scrambled.
