[Q] Unable to restart phone - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
Hoping someone here has the knowledge to help with my little problem!
My phone battery died a few days ago. When I got home to recharge I found the charging LED wouldn't show and also the phone wouldn't restart.
After several attempts I resorted to flashing the ROM again. I got it up and running, but then again by restarting manually again the phone went into a bootloop and wouldn't start up.
Has anyone experienced this before? I've had no issues previously but this is really starting to bug me. Means I can't run Xposed modules etc that need a reboot. I've now installed the ROM 3 times and tried clearing the cache after each.
Running ARHD 51.0 with stock kernel.
Many thanks in advance!
Neil

[SOLVED] Rom issue - problem soft reset or turning off wipes phone

I have tried several roms over the last few days but all have shared the same issue. I tried both the Sh3lby roms and Duttys roms. When I flash it everything works fine, it installs ok and everything appears to work. However, whenever the phone has an error or when I soft-rest or turn the phone off, all my files are deleted and I need to set-up the os again (align screen etc). So essentially everytime my phone is turned off or restarted it performs a hard-rest. Does anyone know any solution to this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated
Update - Returning to stock rom appears to have solved the issue. Thank-you for the replies.

I'm not sure what the cause is but I have seen the same thing on some of the newer builds.

Did you follow the flashing guide? What method did you use? Did you do at least one hard reset after flashing? If you provide more information on how you flashed your phone, it would be helpful.

I used the flashing rom guide in the past, however, I think I am familiar with flashing now and have flashed many successful roms in the past without this issue. I hard reseted after flashing too :S
Have a look Here
Please delete.
I had the same issue recently. Flashing back to a stock rom, hard resetting then flashing the desired cooked rom resolved the issue for me.
had to follow the same procedure for the first time in 70+ flashes of my HD over the last 8 months! never once thought it would help, but it did. fyi, my problem was a freezing, unresponsive device immediately after waking from sleep. it's been 4 days since and no issues...

My XT resets everything to stock after the battery dies...

A week ago I noticed that after my phone's battery was drained out it reset itself. Every app datawas deleted permamently. The phone acted like a new one. The only apps that were untouched were system apps. Some of the apps installed a previous day were also deleted but its data stayed untouched in /data/data. I had to move these datas one folder up, install these apps again and then move datas back to use the apps just like the day before. But this case with datas happens only for the "uninstalled" ones, the rest of the apps that were not magically self-uninstalled were reset to the state when they are just installed.
About 20 minutes ago it happened again. But I noticed how my phone acted before the battery-drainage death. It dropped just to 2% and then suddenly switched off without any information about "shutting down" or anything. Only the LED blinked 3 times but nothing else... I plugged my phone to the charger and switched it on and voila... it was turning on for about 3 minutes nd everything is reset AGAIN.
Is anyone able to help me? I use .141 FW but this happened on .140 too. Also I have DooMKernel v7 flashed...

I have similar problem, after doing many restarts with usb dis/connections, partitions remounts, etc.
I have endless bootanimation and from log I can see that IMEI has 0 lenght and ATcmdfwd service won't start.
Manual factory reset solves it. (I learned to make backups with titanium every day)
Sometimes this happens after shutdown without notification.
Also using DK7 and my rom.
What other mods do you have same as I do?
No serious mod installed at all. Only DK7 on stock ROM and nothing else. I'm really worried because it never happened before, my phone was shutting down with an information and everything was ok. But for a week I was insanely careful not to discharge the battery completely because I didn't want to restore old backups again... but I was curious if this happen again and my thoughts became true...

Hmm, so I am suspecting the kernel. I think I will try to return to v5 for a few days.
Maybe it is caused by the Dynamic file sync.
Try everything stock , stock ROM ,stock kernel ,no mods at all. See if it still happens.

Try flashing a other kernel if that does not maybe trying a different ROM will work "cough" cm10.1 "cough

Thanks for the tips! I discharged my phone again and this time it shut down at 4% but with the notification so everything is ok this time but earlier I uninstalled Kernel Tuner and these two resets happened with KT installed. I've installed it again and I will drain the battery another time and see if this was a cause.

Damn, guys... my phone did that again. I'm on XperimenT 3.0 ROM and I was playing Galaxy on Fire 2 when I fell asleep and my phone died. I woke up, turned it on and it was like waiting in a huge queue for about 15 minutes and voilà - everything is reset to stock except from all messages were kept, all accounts were kept, all setting were kept. This is pretty annoying as I don't want to do a backup every single day...
Is anyone still able to help me? If this problem persist I will be thinking about selling this phone and moving to another and I don't want to do this because for now it's a waste of money for me...
Returning to DK v5 solved this kind of problem for me.

[Q] HTC One m7 - System rebooting and can't update

Hi,
About two weeks ago, after running out of battery completely, my phone started rebooting once I charged it back. It boots without a problem, and I'm able to use for about 15 seconds, then it reboots. I'm able to boot into recovery and perform a factory reset, which apparently fixes the problem, but then I can't update to sense 6. Once the update fails, the rebooting problem returns. So I had basically given up updating. However, today, after turning off the phone to charge it, it started rebooting again after I turned it on.
I read a couple threads and imo the problem is a mix of these two:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/help/htc-one-restart-htc-dailer-error-t2812666
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...ot-stock-recovery-fails-t2810005/post54026176
My device has unlocked bootloader and is rooted.
Please help.
@alray I started a new thread, since the problems were a little different. If you can continue to help, it will be very much appreciated.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Pocket REBOOTS

Hey guys, hope you could help me with my problem.
So I've been trying to install many custom roms in my samsung to try it out, and then I decided to return to my stock rom, then I rooted it. After I rooted it, my power button/lock button started to malfunction, it won't lock my screen after the first press, then after pressing a couple of times, it reboots without any warning. Any solution? I don't think it is a hardware problem because when turning it on, it works fine. Also, it doesn't always happen, but it is really getting annoying when my phone starts to reboot again. I've found a similar problem here and tried the solution, but it didn't work. I also tried to format, return to my stock rom again, but no luck

[Q] Random soft-reboots (Stock 1.205, root)

Hi guys,
My phone is experiencing random soft reboots (reboots without a need to type in simcard PIN) during the day. It happens totally randomly, sometimes 3 times a day, sometimes not once in a couple of days. Sometimes when I use it, sometimes when it's idle on the table.
I'm running stock JB 4.3 A.1.205, LB, Towel-rooted, no custom recovery (I tried some previously and they were givig me all sorts of trouble, so I downloaded fresh official ROM and Towel).
I've been trying to track down the process that causes reboots, I temporarily uninstalled Xposed framework but it still ocurred.
Is this a known issue? Is there a better way to check what is causing that (perhaps in some log file)?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Michal

Try with hard reset or try to flash another stock ftf
Thanks, but the reset doens't seem to change much, it occurs anyway.
I'd rather avoid changing rom again, as I said I just recently installed clear stock offcial rom via PCC and only towel-rooted it.
Any ideas how I could try to track the fault process?

I would have said it´s because of the xposed framework if you haven´t said you uninstalled it once. I had the same problem once, and I was kind of sure that it´s because of some gravitybox settings which gave trouble.
I recommend you to uninstall the xposed framwork once again, reboot and give it a try

Well, I'll give it a go, however I did it before and the reboots occurred anyway... I'm now slowly uninstalling all the apps one by one to see when this craziness stops
I'm starting to suspect that it's a fault of Google Play Services, they're always on high positions in my Wakelock and Battery Usage lists, I heard people are also having some other problem with this app.
Edit:
Another thing is that I try to modify something in AppOps (I'm accessing it via some shortcut apps from the Store), but I cannot change permanently any settings (I click back, then enter again some app and it's all 'allowed' again), is this normal?
I'm digging up an old thread, but I narrowed down my problem to Stamina Mode, I think.
I wiped all data via factory reset, reinstalled clean system via PCCompanion and only townel-rooted. The soft-resets began to appear again shortly after first boot. I tried to eliminate differet things and it seems that the reboots occur only when Stamina Mode is on. I've switched it off like a week ago and the phone has been running smooth ever since.
Now I'm just asking out of pure curiosity, has anyone ever stumbled upon similar problem? Is Stamina Mode known for causing any issues of this kind?
