HTC One (was m7att, now m7ul) - nine months old on AT&T.
Rooted it with TWRP and a rooted stock ROM nine months ago. Weird symptom of losing root 15 mins after reboot, but I dealt with it.
A month ago my battery drained dead. Upon charging, it went into a reboot loop, staying on the login screen for no more than 5 seconds before the HTC boot up appeared again. Took a lot of time to try different things, but just leaving it alone for 3 days 'fixed it'. No more reboot loop AND I stopped losing root after 15 minutes.
A week later, it did it again. I could get into TWRP, just not do a full boot. I wiped the phone and installed Cyanogenmod 10, everything went great.
Two weeks after installing CM10, this week, it started again. I'd barely have time to login, in which time it checks mail and shows I have VM, before it reboots. Often, it would display: Unfortunately the Process.com.android.phone Has Stopped, and the login screen showed "Safe Mode" in the bottom left.
Using TWRP, I cleared /cache and rebooted. It recreated the Dalvik cache, booted, then looped.
I removed the SIM, same symptoms.
If I backup and reflash CM10, the problem goes away. But, as soon as I restore my data, it comes right back. There's something in the data that's causing this that has existed across a stock flashed rom and multiple flashes of CM10.
I'm running out of ideas of what it could be...

Have checked as many threads and post as possible - And I think I have royally screwed up. Problem is My HTC Google Nexus One will only vibrate continuously until either the battery or power is pulled. I did root the phone, and installed Clockwork Mod recovery making a full back up of the factory image. This was as far as I got in my quest to upgrade the OS to something more modern.
The phone worked for a day and a half after rooting, and worked fine after installing ROM Manager. But i kept getting prompted to upgrade from 2.1 Eclair to 2.3.6 Gingerbread. So I tried to run that upgrade and it failed with a triangle with exclamation mark. I rebooted and thought nothing of it. Later I installed Snapchat, and an hour after that the phone wouldn't respond to accessing 'settings' or any other system folder. So I had to pull battery. Tried to reboot and it stalled at the starting animation and that was the last action I saw from both the screen or otherwise.
So although I read there is a risk to rooting your phone, I figured it went smoothly as the phone functioned well for a day and a half.
Anyone have any thoughts on this? I read if you can't get to any of the 3 boot screens then you're bricked. I just can't understand how it happened so easily?
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!

Hello!
I'm having a problem with my S3 mini.. it restarts by itself with no apparent reason.. sometimes i'm not even using it, it's on my pocket and then I listen to the sound of the startup, when I pick it up, I note that it's a little warm, more than normal.
Sometimes the cellphone do this restart in a loop, as soon as it's finally ready, it turns off and then reboot again, all alone! When it starts doing this loop, sometimes it stops when I remove the battery and put it again after something like 10 seconds, but today it started doing it and didn't stop. Sometime, I try to use it immediately after it finish the boot and it freezes before I can get it unlocked, the screen becomes white like a watermark, and then, another reboot. It's always hot when doing it.
Today the cellphone did it something like 10 times in 20 minutes, one of this times it was working after 4 or 5 startups, I tried to take a picture and it did another reboot, and another.. and another! It stoped only after I punched the cell phone several times against a steel wall (yes, I was ANGRY!!!). I tried to let it 5 minutes turned off, when I turned it on again, it started the reboot loop again.
I already tried more than once to do a hard reset, I don't have many apps installed, I tried to uninstall all the apps that I installed when it started doing this. There is no regularity, it stays 2 days normal, on the 3rd day it shows the problem, and then another 4 days normal..
I have no ideia of what can be the problem!! The Android is 4.1.3 and it was not updated recently
Can someone help me?
Sorry about my English, I don't speak very well..

Try to flash it again from zero.
Go to recovery
Do a real format data and media
reset / wipe date
Wipe cache
wipe dalvik cache
Flash rom
install Gapps

Reboot system ( wait 5 min first boot)

So my One's battery died the other day and it obviously shut off. no big deal, I plugged it in and went on my way making some dinner. Then a few hours later I went to bed and turned the phone on and it booted up just fine. Then I went to set my alarm for the next morning and it reset itself. This continued endlessly. Reset, boot into android, sit for 30 seconds and reboot. I can get into recovers and was able to clear cache and what not which did not help. I also did a backup and factory reset, then restored with no luck. I ended up restoring an old back up which seems to have worked for the day. However I just flashed a theme and it did not take, so I cleared cache and now I'm in this same boot loop.
Any ideas? I'm using a Bad Boyz 4.4.2 kitkat rom. I've been using it since the beginning of the year with no issues until now.
Any ideas are appreciated.
Had the same issue, I uninstalled the updates for SuperSU and it worked.
I will give that a shot. Thank you
Hello everyone,
This is my first post on XDA so please forgive me if I'm doing something wrong.
So my story, I got a refurbished unit at Swappa, I updated to the newest version directly (G920TUVU3DOI1) and it was working fine for the first week or so. Then the reboots started happening, I didn't give it too much thought but looked into it anyways.
At first I thought it was a problem with the WiFi and I tried to keep it off for a while, and it did work for a day but again the restarts kept happening, and now with the phone turning off during the night (no apparent loss in battery mind you).
Then I went to rooting and custom kernels.
I installed unikernel v8-0002 through Odin3_v3.10.6 and I tried removing some Samsung apps with TitaniumBackup in case there was some conflict happening but the restarts kept happening.
Then I installed a custom ROM, "XtreStoLite_ROM_v2.4_Deo-Mod-Edition_XXU3COI9_G920-5-F-I-T-W8-K-L-S" to be more specific.
And to my surprise it worked great, no restarts or shutdowns for about 2-3 weeks, it was great!
But then out of the blue the restarts started happening, they started slow, about 2-3 a day.
But after a few days they went to 10-20 and after that 100-200 a day.
Something was definitely wrong. So I installed the original firmware again (G920TUVU3DOI1_G920TTMB3DOI1_G920TUVU3DOI1_HOME) and booted to the stock firmware, restarts kept happening of course (didn't expect them to stop).
So I retreaded my steps and installed multiple other kernels (Unikernel V9, Vindicator, multiple different flavors of them). Also I installed multiple ROMs (Arrow_ROM_v6.0.0, and DN5 - S6 FLAT - EDGE v4 OJ5 - deodex) but nothing seems to work;
I did multiple wipes, storage wipes, cache wipes, factory resets (from GUI and twrp-2.8.7.2-zeroflte) but every time the same thing happens.
I did notice that the phone stutters and freezes, a behavior that I have not experienced before.
I installed CatLog and got multiple log files when the phone restarts but all of them are different and there is no "pattern" to be found (at least in first inspection). I want to upload them but my post count prohibits it.
Please let me know what can I do, I will reply to your questions ASAP so at least I can get some light into what is happening.
Thank you!
I'm in the same boat. Never had a problem before. Received my phone back from Samsung after a screen repair and now, doesnt matter what rom, kernel, patch, it always ends in random reboots. Most often when I'm scrolling or if a page is loading something in the background. It does a lot of hot reboots (not full shutdown and start ups) so its quick but infuriating. Tried everything, slowly losing my patience.
Any idea what it could be? Something related to Knox? Bootloader/Modem?

Hello, I am too having the same problem. Even after a factory reset
