HTC Incredible :: Getting Spontaneous Reboots
Sep 2, 2010
I have not had any real problems other than two times in the past two weeks (once with Skyraider and just now with stock 2.2). Both times happened while playing a Flash video.
Without warning, the phone goes straight to the "Droiiid" stage of booting. Screen does not go black, it just goes with ZERO delay fast to the splash screen. For Skyraider, the little droid dude showed within a microsecond of the Flash video playing.
Both times- Flash video and then the splash screen suddenly appears. With Skyraider, it happened with the previous version of Flash and with stock 2.2, it happened with the final Flash release.
added:
Kind of wild how fast it goes to the splash screen. It is SO fast, it seems like it is part of the video, until you notice it is the splash screen.

I've been having spontaneous reboots on my CLIQ, usually while on 3G. Was on wifi for about 1-2 weeks before I got my data plan and never had the reboots(but then again didn't have wifi 24/7), then I got my data plan and was just using the web (motoblur, news, websites) and the CLIQ would just spontaneously reboot once in a while, and the underside of the phone near the sdcard/SIM card area would get rather warm. Seems like it happens after some time of usage. If I ration the usage I don't see it happening as much.
When it reboots I see the screen fade out with horizontal lines that kinda look like patterns on old interlaced TVs. Then after that I get the motorola black/white logo after it reboots.

the spontaneous reboot and shutdowns is getting old quick. If they truly want to measure up to the IPhone, they best be patching this quickly. Or, Android will be like the I'm a PC / I'm a MAC commercials with Android being the less stable, flaky OS.

My Motorola Droid will occasionally make phone calls after I've turned the machine off. I've observed the machine to restart and make a call, usually to a number prior to the topmost number on the call log. Any help on this?

I get about 4+ a day almost always when its just sitting on my desk, and usually not being charged.
I live in an area with only 1 bar reception from anywhere between -94 to -100.
I'm curious to see how many of you out there are experiencing the same problem.

Received the Incredible today. When I was setting it up the phone it rebooted a couple of times that seemed random to me, but I thought maybe that was part of the setup process. After using for several hours the phone continues to reboot randomly. As an example: I was waiting on a video to load form youtube and the screen went blank and went into reboot. Once I pressed the power key to bring the phone back from sleep mode and it went to what looked like an OS screen with three or four choices to reboot or shutdown the phone. As a side note, the battery was fully charged before I went through setup. Not sure what's going on here.

my first 2 rebooted about 5 times a day. my 3rd one i did the leaked ota right when i got it and it was freaking awesome. Except the speaker was crackling like it was blown. Now my 4th one is rebooting by itself. I'm tempted to do the leaked ota and see if that fixes it.

My Droid incredible spontaneously restarts several times per day. It occurs when I'm not using it and I notice it turns off and then reboots. Yesterday this occured several times and I needed to "pull the battery." This seemed to improve the problem but today it just happened again. Is this related to some software glitch or do I have bad hardware?

It seems that I am unable to fully power off my DI. Here's what I'm doing:Hold down the power button until the popup menu appears Select "Power off" Select "OK" The phone then says its shutting down. The screen goes black for about 5 secs, then it powers back up and goes through the boot process.

My HTC Incredible reboots 4 times in an hour, so now I'm starting to get annoyed with it.

I'm having a very frustrating problem with my phone. I've been noticing a large number of random reboots lately. It primarily happens while I'm listing to music through my bluetooth headphones or my car stereo (connected via bluetooth). When the phone restarts it can't start the bluetooth and I get a force close of a system process. I have to pull the battery and cold boot it to get bluetooth back. Bad hardware?

Anyone else having problems with their Incredible crashing and rebooting? Happened to me first a week ago, I thought it was a fluke while sending a txt message it randomly rebooted. Today it happened again while listening to the mp3 player with the screen locked and in my pocket.

Whenever I use the Inc's camera, my phone reboots. Anyone else having this problem? Anyone know how I can fix it (besides not using the camera)?

Idk what else i can do. i started out on rooted 2.1. At first it was complete fine up until a few weeks ago. Once it started i decided to flash a barebones rooted 2.2 ROM over and i figured it would get rid of the issue. That didn't help it either. So i moved to a more well known ROM thinking maybe it will fix it so i flashed over skyraider 3.3 with sense and its still doing it. This happens like 3 times a day and sometimes it will get caught in a boot loop where it restarts before its even completely loaded. So i have to pull the battery for like 10 min. What else can i do? its soooo annoying

my incredible reboots randomly, first noticed one while on a phone call with my dad. It was over bluetooth in car with navigation & gps on. It rebooted mid conversation. I was on 95 in baltimore with 4 bars and 3g. Everything since has been while listening to slacker. Either while phone is sitting there or while surffing the web. Once was while listening in the car in philadelphia on 95 no navigation (always 2-3 bars and 3g) and it didn't start crashing until about two weeks ago. Every crash has been while plugged into a charger also. I haven't noticed any crashes off charger.

I was wondering if the droid 2 had random rebooting issues.

It has happened to me 3 times today, once when just sitting on my lap in my chair. After 2hrs sitting there I notice the lights come on, and it rebooted. Anyhow, I have no idea how often this is happening. Are there any apps to track this?

I was using Cyanogen 6.0.2 but it was rebooting randomly so I switched to Ruby 1.1.1. Instead of letting everything come in from my backups on Google's servers, I only restored a small number of apps and have been running it today with minimal applications running. Lo and behold, I just got my first random reboot. It must be some application that I'm running, but since I can't trigger it I can't exactly uninstall 1 app at a time.
I'm very comfortable in the command line (I do it in my job); is there a log somewhere I can read that would list what's happening? I'm not running any special kernels, but I'm starting to wonder if the phone's rebooting due to a kernel panic. Is there a log I can view this kind of information somewhere?

I would love to see what is causing my very occasional reboots..
When my pc crashes it gives a report of what caused the errors, id love to see that same thing with my DI..
It would be cool to see that its a downloaded app causing the problem and i would just get rid of the offender

I'm getting random lockups/reboots all day long. I've been working slowly to figure out what's causing them but it's a very long process to change one thing at a time and wait for stability. So here's what I've changed and here's what I haven't. Can someone else having this same problem let me know if any of these match? If something is listed as changed, that means I either replaced or deleted it and I still have the issue.

I have Skyraider 2.5.2, and my whenever I try to record video, my phone reboots. Any suggestions?
EDIT: I was told I need to update my radio. So for 2.15, I need to do unprovoked Forever. How do you do any of the other 2.xx radio updates. I remember something about unrooting your phone or something, but I can't find it anymore.

I haven't downloaded anything new lately, but my Inc is totally out of whack.I posted the other day about my pictures showing up as gray boxes with exclamation points.I've also, just in the past few days, had random reboots, and last night even got stuck in a short boot loop.Then this morning, my ringtones are all mixed up. All of the ones I had set are something completely different than what I set them to.Is it possible it's my memory card causing all of this? It seems like that would be best case scenario.

In the short time that I've used Slacker radio, my phone has rebooted itself twice. At the time I was on Wifi and was skipping a lot of songs. Has this happened to anyone else? Is this a software or hardware issue?

I have had my EVO since last Friday. I love this thing. However, there seems I have had 2 instances where my phone spontaneously reboots if I have doing GPS turn by turn directions and talking on the phone at the same time while using a bluetooth headset. I play with very popular apps I downloaded from Market; and I am pretty good about not leaving them running in the background. So, I'm thinking theres a very specific scenario that causes the phone to reboot. I doubt there a hardware defect; as it only happens with the above scenario. I am curious if there are other people who push their phones to do simultaneous hardware features at the same time and cause it to reboot.I guess its possible that there may be a 3rd party app that's silently running in the background which might be the cause; however, no matter what, an app shouldnt have the ability to crash the entire OS.

Since updating to 2.1 I have been experiencing random reboots - recently 3 in the space of a few hours. I think I have traced the culprit. The reboots seem to have stopped since uninstalling Newsrob. A quick Google on random reboots Newsrob reveals reports of similar problems on HTC sense phones which the author believes to be due to bug in sense. Just reporting it here to prevent others tearing their hair out as I was and blaming 2.1 for being buggy.

I have a Hero that will randomly restart itself.
Maybe once a week, maybe daily, maybe not for two weeks.
No correlation between Apps that I can see, and the service provider (Inland Cellular) hasn't heard of this problem yet.
Has anyone else seen this on a Hero?

I know it's an app, but can't figure out which one. Phone has been acting a little funny since I started running juice defender, I hate to say it, but JD might have to go. Anyone been able to trace this to an app?

Wondering if anyone else has had this problem. I travel extensively on the road and always use the google nav. The problem is when a phone call comes in within 30sec. to a minute at the most the Evo reboots itself. This has happened to three different phones. I drive a vehicle equipped with bluetooth and have synced my phone to the car and the same thing happens when I get a call and answer through the car while using google nav. Was also wondering why the heck google didnt think about automatically muting the voice on the nav while in a call...it's so annoying while talking to hear the nav voice talking in your ear. The other caller can not here it but its very loud in your ear while trying to talk.
