random reboot, help ? - HTC Incredible S

hey guys, my IncS is stock as a rock bought it from optus here in melbourne. the past couple days ive been getting random reboots. i was just on the phone for like 5 mins, hung up, walked to my lounge, put the phone down then 2 seconds later the htc boot screen came up, is their a reason its doing this ?

Did you purchase the fone recently?
If yes, then you may want to take it back and get it checked.
If not, then it could be an app you installed recently which could be causing the problem.
Check to see all the apps you installed before this issue started & uninstall the/those apps.
if it still doesn't help, back up your phone & do a factory reset.
alternately of course you could root your phone & try some of the roms here

OK, then it sounds like you need to start removing your installed apps until you find the culprit.

[Q] How To Stop Download from Market

Hi everyone!
My sister had SGM phone, and this problem appear on her phone.
Whenever she tried download from market -games/app/anyhthing sometimes the download stopped and suddenly multiplied.
It happens when her network got slow and disturb the download, make a new download of the same app but not abort download of the previous one.
I already tried stop the original one but the others that multiplied dont have any option where to stop it. And I also already stop the network, restart the phone, but nothing worked.
Need help!
Yea, I also used to have same problem --now I don't download apps (from market). You can try cancelling the download...
Go to My apps and what you are downloading will be listed there. Long press on it and click cancel download/stop. It might solve it... You can try downloading on pc and then transfer to mobile if you are really annoyed.
Try to freeze it using root explorer
Freeze? You mean like Titanium Backup?

[Q] [HELP] Phone Freezes!

Hello guys,
I`m from Brazil and was on UK 10H for weeks, maybe months with no problem. One day trying to increase my battery life I disabled all the safe list found on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2018587&page=4
From that day forth I started to get phone freezes everyday for no apparent reason, so I did a factory data reset, flashed to official Brazilian V20a through LG Mobile support tool. Re-rooted, factory reset again and the problem is still here!! ::crying: Now on JB it seems like it usually freezes after unlocking the first screen, but sometimes randomly using any app.
I made a video with it today: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4IPNb8mNC8&feature=youtu.be
At first when you unlock, the screen looks right, but when you try to click anything it doesn`t respond. After a while it says: "home has stopped working" I click to close it and I get exactly what you see on the video. Looks like the lock screen clock continues to work, but the "inside clock" doesn't.
Do you have any ideia what I could do?? Currently using superuser. Pleease help!
Thanks :highfive:

There will be other opinions, choose the best for you...
My advice is, re-flash your phone using LGFlash Tool.
Root it, install SuperSU and install it in system (Superuser will be uninstalled and all related files).
Install Busybox if you'll need it, for Lucky Patcher etc...
After that, proceed with uninstall/freeze un-wanted/ no needed apps.
Clean Dalvik-cache and it should be all.
Already tried to install another launcher? I think it is launcher related

reset notify

Anybody else getting random request for su access for a process named reset notify?
Sent from my rooted unlocked rommed HTC One, on the Sprint network.
I beleive it is the message that pops up asking if you want to send a crash report to HTC after the phone was "reset" incorrectly. Usually happens when I choose to reboot to bootloader or recovery when I boot back up.
You can go to settings > about > Tell HTC and error reporting to turn it off.
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
I go to Settings about and I don't see that option however Titanium Backup Pro had absolutely no issue freezing the application so for now that's the fix for me.

Yeah, I came to the same conclusion. In an old thread for the HTC ChaCha the ResetNotify.apk is described as being ok to remove, albeit carefully.
I've uninstalled the app, but my One still resets sometimes?
Not all, but symstemapps that i've deinstalled with titanium, apps which i disconnected from market are connected again.

What rom do you have?
Sent from my lair.
iam testing now a new
could this be the notification clear app? I only get the su request when i have something on the notification panel or on the lockscreen.
I have custom Kernel (Elite), ViperX+ 2.0.3 and it happened also to me (last time a couple of minutes ago).
Is it already a known/solved issue ? I've searched on the forum and come over here ... Is it safe to remove ?
Thanks,

[Q] Z1 auto reboot

I'm on Sony stock rom non rooted.
Sometimes when using WhatsApp, WeChat, I'll be typing a message to someone and suddenly the phone will freeze for a good 5-10 seconds before restarting itself. Whenever a crash like this happens, it will automatically restart. Same with using any random app, sometimes even viewing Album or using the camera.
It will automatically restart even when idling. I tried update to the Official 14.4.A.0.108 Firmware but the problem still exists. Is this clearly software or phone issue? Please help.
Seems like an issue with the phone itself as everything is stock. How long have you been using it before noticing the problems?
I had this kind of issue when I used custom, overclocked kennel, but if you're running stock rom then just give it back to warranty.

I just got it like last week .. it came with 4.4.2 & the issue already arise so i thought maybe updating it would help. Using the Sony PC Companion repair wont help either.

Do a battery test
Try to flash stock rom by flashtool, then go to service center if it's still get rebooting.

The last way always is flashing stock Rom
After that and if it didn't work, you should go to service center

Interesting, this happened to me as well yesterday along with some incredible lag with keyboard and scrolling pages. Like the phone is doing something, ive Odin flashed stock fw 4 times with full wipes. seems something just suddenly defected my phone..
EDIT: BTW this happened after trying to flash a custom rom to my phone, phone was running great when i got it.
i got it working i had to flash back to stock via odin that's the only way it works for me as soon as i flash a custom rom it will stop working if you figure out how to get it working whit a custom rom let me now pls

Having the same issue with Hyperdrive. Restore my stock rooted backup and it works fine. Really looking forward to an answer on this one.
Must setup first time before rooting and flashing roms. This has been discussed in other threads.
Did that, still didn't work.

Is it just Hyperdrive or have you tried one of the other ROMs? I am Dynamic Kat and do not have the issue although other people do, ones that did not setup before flashing that ROM.

I tried using odin, I was on NIH firmware with no luck... and then flashed odin with NJ7 with no luck from that, I must of flashed the firmwares over 8 times,
I went and replaced my white note 4 at a corporate near me, with a black note 4.. no one had them in stock, dialing 611 was no help, they said since u bought it at a store, I had to go there, I found a corp store that had 2 left, I rushed over cause they don't hold it for anyone. employee wanted to charge a $50 restocking fee, I told them the phone is defective, and the manager override the sale..
I am having the same problem of the fingerprint scanner not working after flashing a custom ROM. I followed everything to a T & it didn't install (& yes, it is for my N4). I went back to stock using Odin, several times & have not resolved it yet. I do not want to take it back but I do like having the fingerprint scanner. Luckily, I have another N4 cause I bought 2 when they came out cause I planned on trying to turn a profit on 1 of them, but I'll be damned if everybody didn't make it easy as hell for anyone to get one. I guess I can use the 1 that doesn't work right for flashing & playing around on & then when I find "THE" ROM that I'm happiest with, I can flash it on the good 1. IDK. This is BS though. Somebody has to know how to get it back working right. I know that people that helped create this phablet, are members of this site, so I hope that they or someone else that has fixed this problem replies to our question. I flashed this ROM... http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-sprint/development/rom-alpha-semper-fi-t2926682 & the fingerprint scanner still worked, but after flashing this ROM... http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/25-october-2014-n4-echoe-rom-1-t2917941 it no longer worked & hasn't since. I am going back to stock (again) & hoping this will work. I'll update if it works.
See this post/thread, it worked for me....

sorry dude, I don't know what it was, but when it happened to me, I was on NIH, and had the fingerprint saved, i tried everything, and when i deleted the saved fingerprint, it didn't want to work, nothing worked, i tried for 2 days searching and trying out my own stock odex roms and the firmware, it did not work.. sucks i know...
i had to return it to tmobile corporate store, if u have insurance on it, just play stupid and return it, if u have someone you know on tmobile, just let them put it on their account with put the $8 insurance, have them wait 1 week, call 611 and just say the fingerprint sensor went bad, and just pay $5 and have a replacement sent out,
lucky for me it happened less than a week for me, and went to a tmobile corporate store and they gave me a new phone in a box, but a replacement is still good it is not a refurbished phone...
I got it figured out & will post a file once it finally uploads, but in the mean time. If you have registered at SamMobile.com go there, click on the firmware tab, scroll halfway down to where it says FIRMWARE on the left side of the column & search device here on the right side. Type in your model number & it will show up right below the search area. Click & download the newest file. Here is the link for the Firmware site with search field filled in with N910 http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ While that is downloading, do a factory reset on your phone, DO NOT backup your info, you will need to restart it, but it's worth it. Once the reset is done, your phone will reboot, don't worry about going into setup, just turn the phone off & go into download mode (while phone is completely off, hold, in this order, VOLUME DOWN, HOME & POWER, press VOLUME UP when prompted. Connect your phone to computer. After the file downloads, open Odin (I'm assuming you already have Odin installed on your computer, if not you can find the link here http://odindownload.com/ I didn't have luck with Odin 3.09, but the 3.07 version works great. Your Firmware file should be done downloading by now, if it is, put it in your Note 4 folder (or whatever folder you have designated for your N910-) & extract it to there. Open Odin & click on the PDA button (& DO NOT CLICK ANYTHING ELSE), click on the file you just extracted & then click Start. Once that loads, your phone will reboot & be just like it was from the factory. Hope this helps everybody. Once the file uploads to my Dropbox, I'll post it on here to save you some time.
Here's the link for N910P https://www.dropbox.com/s/f5f63rb4d8ybsm3/N910PVPU1ANK2_N910PSPT1ANK2_XAS.zip?dl=0
