here's the story: my Tytn II was running fine for some months
one day I was travelling and need to use the GPS until there was just around 8% battery level
then everything started to get slow (GPS map couldn't even redraw)
ok, I though it was in some "slow-clock mode" to preserve battery
then I reseted it and, when I came synced it at home, ActiveSync said it couldn't sync (don't remember why) and it would have to send all the information again
but it was taking forever, so I stopped it and did it again later, when it said it was success
I then noticed my speed dial numbers had been lost, but that's not a big problem
the biggest problem here is that for the last 5 days my Tytn is slowing down very often (like 5 minutes after I reset it), even after I removed all startup programs!
What I'm noticing:
1) GPS maps doesn't redraw (I waited more than 2 minutes... it should take like 1 second)
2) Freecell cards are animating very slow after a completed level
3) touchscreen responsiveness is slow
4) I have TodayAgenda... after I change the date of a calendar item, it doesn't get displayed in the new day (just if I reboot)
5 and probably most important) mstli.exe is using 80 to 98% CPU
any hints?

I'm using L26
Since I didn't change anything else, not installing/uninstalling programs and so on, I don't like the hardreset idea (there's a lot of work to set everything back again )

There's often alot more work in diagnosing exactly what the cause is. If you haven't installed anything else then a hard reset (not a reflash) isn't to much work and it gives you the opportunity to progressively reinstal and test any additional software you do use. When you find the app that when installed or configured/used causes the slowdown, then you've found the culprit. Major slowdowns don't just happen out of the blue without changes to the software unless it's due to hardware failure and a hard reset will quickly pick up that sort of issue.
By all means wait to see if others with the same setup have experienced the same issue and if so what they did to solve it but I suspect you'd have it fixed sooner, going down the hard reset route.

I couldnt say it better. I flash and hardreset my phone very often, its a little bit painfull but u will get used to it.
Do not be afraid of the hardreset.
just letting you know I remembered in this same day I had the battery problem, I changed a setting on IP Dashboard (configuring it to keep max 500 KBs history)
I now removed IP Dashboard the problem stopped
will try some other program later, or the old config
thanks
[Q]
Out of the blue my Bionic just started rebooting. 8-10 time per day, who knows how may time at night. I am using the stock ROM. I am looking for a stable ROM that I can use to fix the problem. I also have the problem of disapearing apps that I move to the ext card.
Feedback on possible cures will be welcomed.
I just experienced my first unexpected reboot. It was after plugging in my USB to my computer.
This seems like the sort of thing that would have a 50% chance of being related to your hardware, and a 50% chance of an unstable app screwing something up. The stock software is at least stable enough that it's not very likely to be the cause of your issues, and flashing another ROM (which will have the same kernel) won't help if it is a hardware issue.
A factory reset followed by staggered reinstallation of apps (one or two at a time, to see if one in particular might be causing issues) would be my first step for a problem as extreme as random reboots. The next step is through warranty channels. I might even do that first- I don't think I could put up with a phone that rebooted on me.
And the cure for disappearing apps is to not use media area for storage. The phone dedicates 4gb for apps, that should be more than enough until they patch a fix.
i may have to add that my phone was completely stable until i purchased and installed the extended battery then i started to experience reboots and a few locks here and there.
i did a few factory reset on the stock but the phone was still acting up with the new battery.
i then decided to root and run roms and to be frank no locks and or reboots running the same battery that seemed to be causing the problems based on that being the only change to my phone before the reboot and locks.
i am not saying that there is something there with the stock as there would be more reports on this but rooting and going back to stock is a single click now making it a fast process to trouble shoot the software.
i am experiencing a bad or short life with the extended so in my case it could have been the battery screwing up the reads on the software (guess) but the first 3 charge from full to dead just about 3 days after that same extended only last one day.
in general it seemed that my issue could have been a bad battery and wiping data and playing with roms may had help but in the end i will be calling verizon for a battery replacement as i doubt that in two weeks the battery charge for an extended could only last 1 day of medium use.
sorry long response and by no means i'm i encouraging to root and rom just speaking out of my experience.
Hi - first post here. After 4 Thunderbolts - Verizon sent me a Bionic. Much better however, after rooting with 43v3r and de-bloating with The Black Hat App - I'm having random reboots. Initially, the reboots were several times per day increasing in frequency to several times an hour. Y u c k - My Thunderbolt could do that too.
So in troubleshooting:
1 - I've reverted to stock build - no add'l apps: No reboots in 48 hours. So - I doubt it's hardware.
2- After reverting - I then rooted w/43v3R, then debloated - just using stock apps - no reboots in 24 hours. So, I really doubt it's debloating or rooting
3 - After adding a few apps - Stitcher, Enhanced email, SVOX w/voice, Beautiful Widgets (w/clock selected) - I get a reboot.
4 - Remove everything but stitcher. No reboots - 24 hours.
5 - Add Enhanced Email yesterday
Today, I had a reboot.
6 - So culprit 'looks' like Enhanced Email OR perhaps a switching problem between 3/4g (The Thunderbolt - Stitcher used to drop connection in this particular location so, there IS an issue w/3G-4G.
Questions:
1 - If it's not a 3g/4g issue; could it be related to where Enhanced email or Stitcher chooses to install itself?
2 - Is there a log somewhere where I could find 'boot' times and any issues relating to reboots? Like a 'minidump' in Windows...
thanks
I, too, have started having unexpected reboots. I can't pinpoint it exactly, but I have also recently isntalled Enhanced Email (trial version).
Reboot Logger
Hey Google is our friend - don't know why I didn't look before but I found this in Android Market.
"Reboot Logger" by Watanabe,Masayuki.
Just installed it - will report back after Thanksgiving (in the U.S. - Thursday)...
(I would post a link but I'm a noob here - and, now I know why I hate myself.)
Looks like promising -
Have yall installed any themes or different battery icons, or anything like that to yours? Mine is 43v3R rooted with the liberty romv2. I was changing a cpl of the icons and experienced a reboot just out of the blue. I got rid of the icons I changed and stayed with the icons that came with the liberty rom and have no issues at all. I do not have enhanced mail on mine.
most bionics will turn off and wont turn back on till you do a battery pull. Its a known issue, all you have to do is google it and it turns up. From what ive read putting the battery on performance mode and putting on detect in pocket will help. Personally it doesnt help, i had the issue with the stock battery so purchased a extended thinking it was the battery, but after doing research i found out it isnt. They say the new OTA should fix it
icons - reboot logger
Thanks - haven't changed any icons BUT I am using HTC Thunderbolt wallpaper. I had a Thunderbolt that had a reboot problem until the OTA before Gingerbread - Verizon offered me the Bionic when I called about my Thunderbolt issues (I had three replacements - all with the same issues).
I will try different wallpaper -
Reboot logger works well but doesn't offer a clue as to what is causing the reboots. Mine has rebooted 2-3 times per day since I installed Reboot Logger(RL).
3 times a day is tolerable but, I would like to get to the bottom of what's causing it.
What IS helpful with RL is that it does show that the reboots are not occuring in any obvious time sequence.
They may be related to push emails coming in from my Exchange server. Not sure - I'll post more as I learn more. Hopefully the upcoming OTA will fix - though my experience with HTC's OTAs does not give me a lot of hope.
Update - Last night, I uninstalled Stitcher - Stitcher frequently throws errors requiring a FORCE CLOSE. I also have kept Blueooth off.
No reboots in 24 hours -
Will reinstall Stitcher in the morning (I need it at the gym)...
Update tomorrow/Monday
Turned Bluetooth ON - no reboots in 36 hours so, It looks like Stitcher may be the culprit - I wonder if Stitcher has issue with the internal/external SD storage scheme.
As I noted previously, Stitcher reports 'force closes' frequently - especially when it's not even active (when I have not loaded it or used it).
(No sooner than I posted this - my phone rebooted. And again, and again will switch off BT - I'm in my office so, there's could be an issue with 3g/4g switching or other interference...)
Have you tried setting the phone to run strictly 3g? I have had no issues at all with mine jumping back and forth between 3g/4g.. I leave mine on 3g to keep it from trying to search for a 4g signal. I never turn bluetooth on, nor do I ever really use the compass. hmmmm... Can you tell me everything you have done to the phone. Apps you have installed, what ROM you using, if you have .886/.893 etc? I'm willing to see how close we are as for as how our phone's are setup and help as much as I can. I have not had a single issue with mine other then that one reboot after changing the battery icon.
After nearly two weeks of monitoring restarts - it appears that the problem is more related to where I am. At my home, restarts are rare and related to Stitcher.
At work in Beverly Hills, CA; restarts occur frequently. I assume it has something to do with 3g/4G switchover/crossover or interference.
I had lots of problems with the Thunderbolt dropping data connections in 90210. I could not use the hotspot. On the Bionic, the hotspot functions really well. I've used it up north near Fresno in 3G only land, here in BH and at home where I have decent 4G coverage.
When I remove Stitcher, the reboot problem disappears. Sometimes when I 'wake' the phone, there is a dialog apologizing for Stitcher having 'force closed' even if I haven't used it for days. Market reviews indicate anecdotally that Stitcher has a problem with force closes. This behavior must also be at the root of some of the reboots.
I've also set all programs not to update automatically - this may have reduced the reboots as well. On average, I'm getting 2-3 reboots per day. More than I would like but, tolerable.
Since it seems Cyan has halted release of cyan 11 nightlies for the Atrix HD (indicative of what, I'm not sure), I figure it's worth solving this personal issue now; since it will most likely require another factory reset and I'd rather do it now.
Since day one of using custom ROMs, I've had the issue of my phone randomly crashing. Despite previously using only stable cyan releases, making sure to do clean resets (factory, dalvik, formatting system partitions,etc), letting the phone "stabilize" after installing (no clue what this means, but people seem to suggest just letting the phone sit about 10 min after flashing a new ROM, claiming a more stable experience), and even flashing a new kernel, I still see the same issue.
At this point, I've pretty much accepted that more likely than not, I'll have my phone randomly freeze and reset in my hands during basic use, calls, texting, internet use, listening to music, etc. Though clearing the Dalvik cache seems to quell the problem, it soon returns to the familiar behavior a day or two later. Any other basic solutions I might be overlooking? Suggestions, even obvious, very welcome.
CM11 switched to unified builds for the Moto 8960 family . http://www.cmxlog.com/11/moto_msm8960/
You can safely download a zip and dirty flash it over your current CM11 installation. At least that's what I did and I'm having possibly the smoothest experience so far on this phone/CM combo running Sat March 01 nightly.
About your crashes, do you get a phone freeze with signal loss before restarts? Do you always get a restart when the phone crashes?
Did you try enabling 2G only for a while? Do you crash while on WiFi?
You could also try another ROM such as Validus. I find the 4.3 release to be quite stable.
Thank you for the link to the new unified build. I've been busy with approaching midterm that I'd only heard of the new builds but didn't look into it personally.
As for the freezing. It's always been the same behavior: screen and all function buttons suddenly becoming unresponsive with no warning or change in signal (regardless of wifi or data use) remaining frozen for 10 to 30 sec, before returning to the unlocked bootload warning screen and the normal cyan reboot animation and normal lock screen after.
Everytime is has froze it will restart (i suspected a memory issue at one point, but after watching the memory usage long enough to see it randomly freeze but no change in mem, I doubt that it's directly the issue). I have not tried switching to 2g, so it would be worth a try. It will freeze regardless of whether wifi is off or on.
The only real "pattern" I could argue seeing is that it freezes most often during skype calls, while playing music (pandora and play music), and internet using browser; though it might only be because I'm actually paying attention to the phone while it is doing these tasks, I'm sure that it's probably freezing and resetting in my pocket thoughout the day. It will also randomly reset while looking through settings or non-data dependent tasks. Ironically, I've never had it reset on me while I was watching a youtube video. Go figure.

Any ROM, stable, nightly, cyan or other, with still see it start randomly freezing and rebooting an hour to a day after flashing.
-update*
After having switched to 2g signal instead of LTE, I haven't seen anymore randomly rebooting. I'm not sure if this was the issue but it's already been a day which is longest I've seen it remain stable.
1 Week later, back to the same behavior as before. Seems I might just screwed for having a stable modded phone.
Hello guys
I recently upgraded my monthly available data. Got in to a deal, was 5$ for an extra Gb. Now that I have two, I still felt like it wasn't enough for my usage. My cycle restarted today and i busted my 2 gb. I looked in the usage and noticed that the "Android OS" used 800mb of my data. That's a lot of data that I don't actually "use".
This screenshot was taken one week ago. Since I noticed Android OS used that much data, i tried many things to stop it. As you can notice on the screenshot, data saver is ON, its always ON.
I tried some kind of firewalls. Looked like i was able to block different apps from using data, but it didn't seemed to work well, so I uninstalled. Later during the day, when i was in the train and had left work, I noticed Android OS used up to 840 mb of data. 40mb/day is a lot more than my normal usage. All of this, in less than an hour, makes no sense.
I was on Android N beta, developper preview 4, and because of this data usage going crazy, I rolledback to MM and required to wipe the device at the same time, so i am now on a fresh device.
The day I wiped my device, Wednesday last week, I was at work for the whole day, connected on wifi, reinstalled a few apps.
I turned OFF completely the data during the weekend, because I wasn't in town, and I had no cellular network connection there, so no data usage.
Today was a "normal" day in terms of my usage. But still not for Android OS. LTE was turned off uring the whole day, except when I was in transit. Android OS still managed to use 3mb. I took two screenshots, showing how much data is used by this, and here they are.
Notice, I took them with 3 minutes in between. The used data keeps going up, 0,05mb. Doesnt looks like a lot, but at the end of a month, makes a huge difference.
Since then, i keep turning off my data connection when i am on wi-fi and i try to keep it closed as much a possible. I compared the amount of data used by this "app" on data versus on Wi-fi and the quantities are close to each other.
I would say i am connected on wi-fi 90% of the time, and the other 10% on my data connection. This ratio isn't reflected on this data usage of Android OS
I already tried restricting everything, blocking sync of Google account, Google Photos backup, Google Play Store Updates, stopped the bugs and issues reporting, data saver on Android N I think I blocked everything that could potentially use data.
I discussed with an other guy on Reddit with the same issue, he wiped his phone too, booted in safemode, and there too, approximately 1mb/hour of data usage.
This problem is getting very frustrating, i pay for data that I don't actually use for what it should be used. I also feel like I am loosing control over my device, or like my device is controlling me.
I am open to any fix suggestion, even though I probably already tried it. I have really no idea what to do next, I really love this phone for the big display and good functionalities, but this is getting so annoying.
Since I am a new user on XDA, I cant post links for pictures, kind of a bummer, but i hope you get the problem. If you really want to see the screenshots, I will keep them and I have no problem transfering them to you via an other platform. Thanks for understanding
Thanks a lot for your help guys!
I'm not exactly sure (since I've never tried N developer preview) but that 800mb is around the size of an OTA. Again if it were an OTA you would have to have had a version of N that was a bit older to warrant this and when you went back to MM the same thing- having a slightly older build... so just an idea. Otherwise as far as things you haven't mentioned- have you turned off, in the playstore app, the "automatically update apps" and all that? I'm not sure how effective you applications for blocking are(if I even saw that or if you even use such a thing for data). Updating apps doesn't fall in the category of sync either. Updating app also is under google play store services so just an idea, because I know you said Android OS. On avg my android OS is only about 1mb per month so that is shockingly high for you.
That's got to be OTAs or something like that.
For me, Android OS is using 10-20 MB/month.
Also be careful with your character CASE. mb/MB/mB/Mb are NOT the same thing. Big "B" is for Bytes, little "b" is for bits, there are EIGHT bits in a byte, so 1B = 8b. "m" is for "milli", which is one onethousandth (0.001x) of the base unit, since the base unit is a bit, which is indivisible, this is something completely absurd, like dividing by zero. "M" is for "Mega", which is 1000000 times the base unit.
I got to tell you something....
Since few years, my huawei follows me everywhere ; a P8 Lite given here or there, few years ago ; replacing my old S3 mini (L8190). From his scene or commercial name P8 Lite, or his full name ALE (for ‘Alice’) L21, released in 2015, unlike his older brother, the P8 Lite Prague, released two or three years later, with many differences.
That P8 Lite brought me several issues : touch screen going litterally in failure when the temperature goes over twenty degrees celcius, very fast, then I adopted my first decision from a long serie of precautions a bit abnormal or totally uncommon, regarding a smartphone owner.
Do you remember in James Bond, the scene of Roger Moore, using a camera to aime the necklage of his secretary (in the presence of Q), enjoying to zoom-in, zoom-out on the top of her clothes ? Well, replace the erotism by a screenlock of the huawei, and increase the zoom speed by x1000, and you will have the effect of a huawei in ‘normal/common’ situation, just after being stored in the twenty or thirty degrees celcius of a pocket, in a beautiful summer. Yess ! The screen works very well ; but for the touchscreen, it’s totally f**ked up : this is the first disapointment. The touchscreen is the culprit, to be activated everytime (like if fingers where active on it), even if.. nothing touches the phone. I did a video posted on xda, for the most curious...
For the touchscreen issue while overheating, the only way I found was to remove the rear plastic at the back of the phone itself : it let the electronic chip and battery directly like sticked to the silicon case. I didnt found anything better, but it’s still better than salvage restart the phone, and wait five long minutes (android 6) to get system started and ready.
But the one of my permanently abandon of playstore, and his 500MB demanded to install a 10MB (!!) app, will make me definitely leave google services, on daily life. Wah ! Im among the lefters of gafamnt. Well, it’s okay for me (even better) Going to Lineage (with ggleapps, then, ouf ! Without..) will not bring only better experience, at least not that one..
Since 2020 and the crisis, I start to study with high motivation the mobiles cellphones world : arm plateforms, xda forum (highly better than frenchs ones), theorical lessons and learning, so. Practical side, too : the recovery mode, twrp, then lienage, his ancester cyanogen, etc.. It will take me about a year to be skilled and well understand, at least the advanced/intermediaite level, to understand those devices. But in the meantime, with lienageos, others problems came..the PINlock keyboard, whom freezes one time over ten under lineage, : you ush on the touch of the keyboard to type the code, but it stays as an "animated pushed touch", an nothing reacts anymore on the screen. At all. It will come to my bigger misadventure..
Just to be more accurate : a year after ,I use lienage 14, perfect release for this device : not too recent, so it's not running slow, but not too old, so all my favourites apps runs well. And I use the encryption feature, only available on lineageos (never stock rom, imho), who doesnt permits to the little smartass whom could steal my phone, to do not siphon all my data using the recovery/twrp, whom doesnt care about pin at android lock screen, but not in case of.... encryption. Wise precaution, logical, in 2022, after this rase awareness about cyberdefence, crowned by the symbolic pegasus affair. Last information : my phone is powered off every evening, powered up every morning, since my first smartphone (iphone), and I always did like this ; it's a kind of prudence I have, my alarm clock has always been (and will ever be) on a second classic plastic phone, like old 3310 : two months of autonomy, that's something.
So after those "one more thing" information, the following is more.. crusty.
So in beginning of 2023, after had let my next phone few days away, the time of the official of lineageos 20 ,aka android 13, from AOSP (I didnt wanted to use it immediately, to avoid the export/import data with a clean install of lineageos 20), because it was supposed to be released in 2023, jan or feb (it has been the case, but not official yet)
In january 2023, two weeks before this misadventure happened, I took the precaution to export and import those data to my new smartphone : not with success, some setings where proper to the lineageos 14 release, and failed. As a good half-nerd, I procrastinate. Yes, that happens.
Until that day of January, Im outside, trying to take a picture... a long path of issues, a long descend to technology hell... I get out my phone. I make swiping from right to left, to hand the photo recorder app, as the feature allows it. The bug allows also that the screen makes a little "flash" on a blank screen for few seconds, before going back to suspend ; Im thinking that it happens, it will be better by unlocking manually the phone by pin, then taking the camera app, basta.
Im wrong : I try to unlock the phone, Bim! keyboard bug. Not any key works. Nothing else to do than restart, because the phone is in the coma, means doesnt reacts anymore. Only solution regarding keyboard bug. But I refuse to let it like that, to drain the battery while cant do anyhing with the phone. I start to push ten seconds on the power button, to do a salvage reboot.
Then Bim! (bis) : nothing. Nothing happens, I figured out few days ago, with the volume up/down buttons, that power button too had a little problem. To make it working, it's necessary to push a bit on the side of the phone, at the buttons level. Few days ago, it was working. Here, zero, nada, more than twenty minutes to make it react, that power button wants to stay in the coma, a bit like the keyboard. After half an hour, my patiency is almost to throw the phone to a bloc of concrete not far of here. But I dont, regrets will come then, per thousand. So I let things like this, at that time. I will handle that problem at home.
I come back home. I finally made the powerbutton pushing : I ask it to poweroff. New bug, it happens sometimes : the "powering off" popup shows, but undefinitely. It happens sometimes. But was solved by ten seconds on the power button. I finally connect it to USB, do a "adb rebootbootloader". Im thinking by restarting it, it will make his memory in a better way. I wasnt expecting being taken by the word.
All users of lienageos whom knows the encypted lock screen at the very beginning of lienage/android starting (even, before it), knows well the thing : impossible to do anything (excepted maybe emergency calls) when the encrypted pin lock code is not entered. A little soft "ring" reminds it to you, every five or ten seconds, after five minutes of inactivity.
So I did the adb thing to reboot the device. You see where Im trying to go? When command is validated, the device immediately restarts ; due to an emotionnal precaution, and also because this device is tiring me a lot, I let it at the top of a little furniture, with the idea it will let it being forgotten for the rest of the evening. That dumb electronic device took it at the accurate word :
between the tea and a little part of reading, my brainds remind me something : this dummby of huawei didnt asked me yet the encryped lock code, with this little ringer, whom never stops until correct code is entered.
Very surprising.. after few moments. Im really worried, after long minutes of waiting.. Why doesnt it screams at me to get this code, to permit it to start android?
Im going close of the device.. Horror! I see the assistant of first lienageos installation. That thing totally forgotten all the data !
After few hours, I calculate my losses :
two weeks of precious exchanges of sms/calls, with numbers for some of them, I will have difficulties to retrieve them..
signal, telegram and jabber (conversations/quicksy), are just definitely gone. the only rescued data? it's the backup made two weeks ago. It permits me to retrieve some data ; but not from isntant messaging, forever gone.. RIP, and without me, huawei.
Since that day, I do everything I could to get my data backed up withing the 24hrs : cloud (EU) storage, daily SMS backup, and especially I limit the number of used apps, to avoid future problems. I remember my maxim : the phone is the second object the most volatile of daily life, just after the home/car keys! And I dont even talk about the drained battery, the bugged operating system whom doesnt starts, nor the forgotten or stolen device.. A long quest to secure my data, starting by the crédo of backups : 3, 2, 1...
Laureates for photos backups would be pcloud, koofr and jottacloud, whom permitted my to find back photos from last hours (and mms received) before the drama. For the rest, memory will be honoured by that essay.
I never use banking application. Cause I disagree of linking a extremely volatile device with money
I use wifi when available, cellular data about less than an hour a day (or even quart of hour per day).
I manually switch it off/on. Cellular/mobile data eats a LOT of battery/energy (battery capacity
divided by 3 minimum)
I use :
newpipe (for yt) / maps.me (for offline maps) / vlc / qksms / fdroid/aurora / carnet / muzei / pdf-
epub reader / davx2 / foldersync / smsbackup&restorek9mail/fairemail / protonmail/vpn
firefox focus / firefox / fennec / torbrowser
linphone / conversations/quicksy (snikket/siskin for ios) / signal/telegram
nextcloud/pcloud/koofr/jottacloud
I do not have, and will never have google apps again (I never use ggle services – at all)
