Hi all,
Sorry if this has been dealt with before, but I haven't found answer.
A strange bug occurred to my I9000: it wrongly detects an USB connection and propose me in the notification bar to mount umount SDcard on PC.
I have flashed a new kernel, rebooted. After that, it seems OK but again, this morning, having done absolutely nothing, the notification is present, as if the phone was connected to PC.
I must say that everything else seems to work properly. It's just annoying to have this notification permanently.
I've tried to clean the contacts using an appropriate aerosol but that did nothing.
Model informations : GT-I9000 2.2.1 I9000XXJQ1 2.6.32.9 root DELL105 1 rooted FROYO.XWJS8
Any idea?
Well actually, everything seems to work except that I can't get the phone recognized by PC anymore neither in mass storage nor in debug mode. :-(
Factory reset phone as first step .

Sorry but we need something less rude if we want iphone users to switch to android ;-)
Such a little bug cannot be solved by just saying: hey revert to factory settings and erase all your datas. That may solve the symptoms but not the reason.
I've digged a little through the internet and there are several reports like mine. It's worthwile to understand why.

factory reset is what it is,
it reverts phone back to factory standard. there was no issue when you first got the phone so obviously its something YOU have done.
so yes, a factory reset is whats needed, nothing rude about that.
Sorry but we need something less rude if we want iphone users to switch to android ;-)
We dont want i phone users to switch to Android they are mainly too thick don't read instructions and dont understand FAQS .
You have a problem probably caused by you or the rom you flashed or possibly settings .
Fix is to go back to stock Froyo or Eclair wiping phone but first step is Factory reset as its easier .
Or hang around and someone may have the solution or take it to a Samsung service centre .
jje
Thank you for the answer.
I'm already on an official froyo (samsung one) and didn't apply any lagfix since my last factory reset ;-)
I'm not an iphone user, I want to understand where is the trouble and help to fix it (even if I'm a noob on android, I know pretty well how linux works).
As I said before, other people seem to have encounter this problem but the solution given just erase all hints behind the possible bug (that may be hardware linked)
From my experiments it seems that the problem occur only after a first data connexion. The deconnexion is correctly detected (notifications disappear) then, randomly, a wrongly detected usb data connexion reappears.
What are the processes between detection and notification ? That's what I'm tracking.

Well in a sense I resolved my problem: the phone doesn't show an USB connection wrongly any more. Problem is: I did nothing! I can't explain it. I now suspect a hardware problem, but as several people on the net report the same thing, it's surprising. That would mean that some SGS have this problem and the vast majority are ok.

But my issue surfaced after 7 months of my purchase. And right now I am away from my Home country to get it serviced in the Samsung Service Center.

hey all,
i got my galaxy note now 3 weeks ands it's rebooting random all the time. at a service point i let them do a factory reset but that did not work. does anybody know a solution for this problem? because i dont like to send my note cause i will not have a few days sow if anyone got a solution i like to try it.

Suffering from the same here
I think its related to one of the apps - I will start removing my installed apps one by one from tonight - Will keep you posted with the updates.
Also, if anyone out there had the same issue; please advice!
I had the same issue on previous android devices..I managed to get around it with numerous hard resets. Also I believe that a certain combination of apps will cause it too..but i don't know which ones. I've got a dell streak right now, and its been stable for a few months..having said that, it still randomly reboots once in a while but no where near the consistency it used to.

I had this problem too and it seems to be an installed app problem, particularly any that change the wireless settings in some way or apps that stall when accessing the external SD card at boot times.
this is exactly what happens to me guys, same problem.
Random reboot and this happens all around the clock, no matter if it is day or night or if the phone is in flight mode...
Frankly I don't want to uninstall my apps one by one to check what app is causing the issue because I have no time to spend on it...
I hope that someone with more software skills than me (I am just an user) will succeed to fix it...
cheers.
Do you have Dolphin browser installed?
If it's the case, don't search further...
What's the problem with dolphin browser? I constantly use it and never had a restart. Is OPs phone overclocked or undervolted?
Which rom and kernel are being used?
mine is also rebooting every once in a while for no apparant reason. Mostly when I unplug it from the USB cable but not always. This happened from the first day on. I never did a factory reset but considering it now since the SMemo app is not working anymore (no strokes are visible) and I am out of options.

Come to think of it, mine also reboots when disconnecting from USB storage mode. I thought maybe this was buy design? Maybe not!

Do you use antiviral software? Start by removing that. Kaspersky have messed up almost all my Android devices.

why would you need to pay anything if the phone is under warranty ?
I also have this issue, I found out that its the power button..

Dolphin is a well known app for causing random reboot, since SGS 2.
Not for all users but for many:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321612&highlight=randomly
But without Dolphin installed, I really don't know...
I think it's the SD card causing these problems.
My reboot problems all disappeared when I removed the 32Gb sandisk card. I replaced it with a 16Gb card and was very careful about which apps I installed on it. Now whether it was the card size/brand or the selective apps that resolved the issue I can't be sure. Having Dolphin's cache on the phone memory instead of the SD card might also be a solution.
But it's worth investigating if you have reboot problems with external card installed.
Hi guys,
As soon as I got my Note, I rooted it and flashed a custom rom. Never had problems with reboots so far.
So, for a change I though setting it beck to stock was a good idea, with the upcomming ICS update.
As soon as I flashed the stock rom with odin, and it was back to factory situation, the reboots start happening. Every 3-6 hours the Note rebooted. Got in contact with Samsung (NL) and suggested to execute a factory reset, so I tried that a couple of times. But no luck, the reboots keep happening. I thought maybe it was an hardware issue. I have no Sdcard, only my SIMcard, which was a bit warn out, so I order a new SIM. But still, the reboots keep happening.
Then I decided to root my device again and flash a custom rom (Rocket-Rom), and guess what? No more reboots!!!
I hope this helped.
To me, I think automatic reboot is somehow still acceptable. I experienced two times auto power off. Both were happened after I charged it over night, unpluged the charger and left it without unlocking the screen, drove to my work place, and found it dead
I'm only having it for 2 weeks and I haven't rooted it.
it maybe a usb charging issue which is causing so much grief to many note owners. Mine has a defective usb port and it makes my note go crazy, including reboots and makes the note think its charging when its not even connected to charger at all.
Using note since dec... Faced such problem 5 or 7 time whn my phn was nt rooted... But nw its working fine... Using rocket rom v 20...

Hi Folks,
I have got a Nokia 7 plus and since the day I have bought it, I am facing a strange problem.
Every now and them the screen freezes and only way to make it work again is locking and unlocking the phone.
I can say the screen do not respond to touch because the buttons are working properly in this case.
Tried resetting the phone, installing Android P, Rolling back to O, but nothing works. the problem still persists.
Curious to know if anyone else is facing such problem or if anyone has got any solution to fix this issue?
It a hardware problem i believe. Coz even i had the same issue. I immediately sent it to service center which was luckily nearby my home. They took a video of that issue and sent it to Nokia for replacement. They approved my replacement and gave me a approval letter and requested me to visit the shop where i had purchased the phone. The shopkeeper took my old phone back along with all the accessories and approval letter and within 5 mins they gave me a new unit.(note: the service center person told me that if you have purchased the phone from a store then you have 14 days replacement guarantee in case if any issues persist post format or tests).
I have the same issue, tried all methods you mention to make it work normally without succes. I dont know if it is a touch hadware problem because it happens very ramdomly and works instantally and normally again if I lock and unlock the screen
Some days not happens, another days happens very frequent.
Another fact, every time I installs some Factory image (Android P developer preview, Android 8.1), the touch not give problem at all for aprox 2 days or more.
I'm very frustrated with this issue.

This is the Nokia 7+ quality problem, go to the after-sales service to replace the screen for free.
So i got my device replaced and for sometime, it did not give the problem but after 3 weeks, i started experiencing the same problem. New device also becomes unresponsive at times and then i have to switch off/on again to use it. I updated OS to Android P DP3 last week but issue still persists.

I think we can clearly consider this as a hardware problem in that case.
i have same problem with my Nokia 7+, I gave a chance to nokia but I'm already starting to change my mind, the bootloader can not be officially unlocked and now the problem with the touchscreen, a bit disappointed, I hope hmd solve these issues and if not, buh bye nokia.

Sadly, this is not the case here. I did a clean install of the latest developer preview, and I still experience an unresponsive system. Right after lock/unlock it works again.

Seriously ur device need a service centre
It happens to me sometimes while uninstalling an app. Device freezes and doesn't respond. After like 10-15 seconds, it uninstalls the app and start responding.

I have similar problem.
When I want to clear data for the chrome through the settings, device goes mad, most of the time freeze and its difficult to restart it.
I thought they fixed with august security patch, but no.

Yes, it happens to me as well. Let say Chrome has 200mb cache and if I click on Clear Cache, device freezes.
I used to face this problem quite frequently, but I haven't seen it in quite a while. For this reason, I'm pretty sure it was a software related issue and not a hardware one, as a hardware problem would be unlikely to go away, but a software one could be fixed with updates.
It started to happen on ly device today. I have the august security patch and my model is ta 1055 so i don't think the problem is solved yet
Cleared chrome cache. Device freeze for 15 minutes and rebooted. On Pie dev 4
There are so many seemingly random issues with this phone, I can safely say that I hate it. I never know if it's going to take a call (unresponsive soft button), or if the person on the other end will be able to hear me (mic just randomly stops working at least once a week). Freezes a few times every day. Won't allow push email notifications after (or during) sleep, have to reboot. The list goes on......
Going to turn in my device for repairs. It's taken Nokia long enough to come up with a software solution. On the Nokia forums there are several people who were helped with a touch panel repair.

Already sent back the device for repairs twice, each time they sent it back with just a reinstall of an older Android version... claiming it would be fixed.
In Europe, there's no Nokia repair, so another party is taking care of the repairs. It seems like they are not really aware of the ongoing bugs/problems of the device, which makes it extremely difficult to get them to actually repair the device properly.
First time they even told me they "replaced defective hardware", when in fact the hardware was not touched at all.
I managed to record the issue with another device, and showed it to the vendor.
Now they're offering me a refund. It looks like this is the best option I can get from them.
Really sad though. I was hoping for them to just fix it. Apart from this problem, it is a really good device. There's not really a good alternative in the same price range.

Im having trouble unlocking my device, I tried the finger touch to unlock but it did not unlock and the phone is unresponsive even on pressing the power button. I tried to force restart by pressing and holding the powerup button and power nutton simultaneously but still no result. Also I could see a red led light at the lefthand side of speaker on top.
Note: The device was fully charged.
can someone help me with this Issue please
Please guys if anyone know about this issue teach me how to fix it...

anyone please help me with this problem thanks in advance
Have you tried a factory reset? I have seen these kind of issues develop after system updates. I usually factory reset after yearly system update to ensure that everything goes smoothly.
It can't be solved see this thread.Its an asus hardware flaw I m too facing this issue.Asus people are aware about this and they cannot do anything as it's a hardware flaw.This android 10 update ruined this beast of a phone.Mine went for a repair and after 2 days I faced the same issue.

Hi. So, I wake up in the morning to find that my phone was in recovery mode saying something along the lines of:
"Your device may be corrupt. If you keep facing this issue, you may need to factory reset your phone."
I restarted my phone only for it to restart (automatically) within a few seconds. This happened about 5 times. Then, finally, I decided to do a factory reset. After performing a hard reset, my device started working fine but only for a few minutes. I was setting up my applications and adding my Google accounts to the device when the phone restarted, again. I started looking around on XDA and other forums for anyone else facing the same problem. I went to Google Issue Tracker where I saw the same issue opened for today; however, that was on a Pixel 6. I tried sideloading an OTA image (from Google's website) and that was successful but I still kept facing the same problem. I performed a hard reset again and didn't download any applications and didn't do any additional settings. The phone worked fine for around 4-5 hours, so I decided to set it up with my applications and settings. As soon as I did that, my phone started restarting again.
Please help!
Details:
Device: Google Pixel 4a (5G)
Software: Android 13 (April 2023 Update)
Thanks in advance!
Facing exactly the same situation and it start happening today.

Are you Pakistani? If so, do you have any banking applications or any Pakistani app installed for that matter? Try hard resetting your phone and install each application you want one by one. You'll know when the problematic application is installed so you can uninstall it to get rid of your issue. It was a banking application for me :/
