[Q] Keeps Freezing - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

About 3 days ago my G1 began freezing randomly.
It locks up and i have to remove the battery.
At first I thought that it was probably the ROM i was running, buts its doing it with every rom that i try.
Is there any way to fix it? Or does anyone know what could be causing it?

Just dying - constant lockups.

Hello all,
first post here, so here goes.
As stated i am experiencing constant lockups on applications and my only resort is to soft reset. Phone is not going into hibernation anymore and if it does is not coming out of hibernation when i need to use it, most times.
I first experienced this when trying to open TomTom, but have since found that things have been going from bad to worst.
I have been running with Dutty's V3 (large) Rom for a few weeks without any issues. The only thing that i have done was flash a new splash screen, the first one which shows version #'s and this was running fine for a week and a half.
In any case i know that i will have to flash a new ROM to resolve, most likely Dutty's V4
My question is, has anyone else experienced this sudden, no apparent reason system instability...? Do you know what may have caused it? What can i do to fix it? I was very happy with the Rom that i was running with and was hoping not to have to flash again for a while.
Many thanks,
Anthony.

[Q] Phone randomly restarting?

Hey, a few days ago I started my first serious issue with my phone (I don't consider the lag or gps problems serious).
While being in cell standby (and I don't use it), the phone has restarted completely randomly 4 or 5 days in a row now. I have no idea what's causing it. I'm prompted to enter my sim card pin again upon reboot.
Has anyone else had similar problems? Are there any ways to fix this? :|
I'm using the official firmware available (I haven't flashed), XXJF3, and the phone is not rooted.
uninstall whatever is causing it
do you remember what have you installed recently?
just uninstall the latest Apps that you installed in the last few days
I have the same problem, only in my case it happens once every 2 weeks...
Because it happens so infrequently I haven't done more research on this issue. My idea was to try to determine what is going by going over Android logfiles, but that is from my assumption: everything is logged under Linux. Not sure if this is the case for Android.
Anybody any suggestions on which logfiles to read/examine?

[Q] My phone keeps restarting its self mid-boot - Not a rom/root issue.

I've been on holiday and while there my phone seems to have broke. It constantly restarts it's self - it gets to the HTC One splash screen and then will reboot again.
Most of the time I cannot get it into recovery as it will crash and re-start before it gets there, but I did manage a moment ago to get it to work for around two minutes and in that time I wiped the device - still having the issue though.
It's rooted with a custom rom, but I havent changed either of those elements in a good few months so dont think it's related.
I suspect this is a hardware issue and I'm boned, but wondered if anyone had a suggestion?

[Q] Anyone else having this issue?

While scrolling through my Nexus 6 apps, the phone froze and the screen went nuts. I had to turn the phone off and restart it. Samething happened a few hrs later....... Am i the only one experiencing this? Any troubleshooting tips? Thanks in advance.
Never seen that before. Are you on stock?
I was on stock and had it happen one time. A reboot resolved it. I think the SW thought I wanted to add all my apps as shortcuts.
Im also running stock. Havent had an issue until today. First time it happened, i had to reboot. Second time I just locked and unlocked the phone.

Restarting in random moments. New rom needed?

Hello,
I am here because i have another problem with my lovely phone :/
You guys always helped me so i hope you will do it again.
Okay,
My phone is restarting in random moments. Screen is freeze for 1-2 seconds and then rebot. It is doesn't matter if phone is used hard (games) or if it's on the table.
1st time it happend with ROM 5.1.2. Then i've decided to go back to 4.1 rom and then automatic upgrade to 4.3.
Few days was okay and after then it starded again.
Does someone know why i have that issue??
I really hope that is only rom problem and if i change it the problem will gone.
And here's second part of thread.
What oryginal rom do you recomend? I have saw a lot of them but i have no idea what could i install.
Right now i have stock rom, i do not remember exactly number but i has "James Bond" music so i am sure it was one rom from that edition...
Edit:
If you find any better rom than stock 4.3 that is really stable i can take it as well
I jsut want my phone wokrks without any problems
Please, halp :fingers-crossed:
Try to run phone in a safe mode and see if the problem with restarting still exists.
I would suggest you to use this CM 12.1 rom it is working just great.
It could be a problem because i have no idea whenit will happen.
Now few days was great only today morning i saw that it restarted.
Hmm, for the first time restarts like this started with that rom... but i will give it another chance i think.
Then maybe an app are causing that random restarts or it may be a hardware problem. It even may be that sim card causing restarts, I have read something about it.
Btw I'm using that rom from the very first builds and I havent have any problems with phone restarts.
I had few restarts when sim card was loose but i have information that phone is restarting.
About app it's not the problem because even if i had no apps downloaded i had that problem
I hope i haven't destroyed my phone when i installed some roms. That would be bad.
For now i will try to instal CM 12 and i hope the problem will go away.
Edit.
And may it be just a battery problem?
Btw. I just did factory reset and already got few restarts, so i am sure it's not an app that causing the restart.
Okay i have watched that phone for a while and found new, fresh informations...
Even in a safemode phone cause to restart. It is no matter if i have a sim/sd card.
I also think it is getting hotter every restart but i am not sure about this.
When i was traveling by train it was restarting like a stupid... The phone was loosing signal and was changing to roaming etc.
I don't know if it has something with that...
After changing to android 5 few days was good and then...
Also that problem started in 1 day. Just started restarting, without any sympthoms.
Oh and 1 what is strange... After the restart when i touch the square (to cloose the apps) there are apps that i have been using before that restart.
Please, help :c
Edit. A hour ago the phone was restarting over and over, it turned on and sudently after homescreen loaded it restarted again. And that was for some time, now it is working without any issues for over 1 hour...
Edit. 2
After the night, and many restarts as well i saw that battery dropped. From 90% to 20%.
May it be just a battery problem and changing it will solve that?
I have the exact problem for 3 weeks now, the phone becomes screen off then randomly reboot and gets very hot.After reboot battery goes down like from 49% to 10%. My phone is just 2.5 years old and everything ia stock. In battery test it shows like battery health is normal. I also only use gsm+umts, mostly umts, Is there any solution for this?
