Guys,
I'm pulling my hair out over this. My MDA Vario has often rebooted itself and i've always put it down to a glitch of one form or another, but today it has been rebooting every few minutes.
Each time it reboots a text message i've read reappears as NEW, as though the phone doesn't register me reading it before it crashes and reboots. If I delete this and other messages, within minutes once it's crashed and rebooted they will all return like a CACHED memory or something.
I don't know what to do.
It seems as soon as my screen dims on power save, it won't come back on and within a few seconds the screen goes white as it is rebooting.
Sometimes reading this message or doing anything in the message application causes the crash, sometimes it's happenign even without me doing anything.
HOWEVER - once i've turned off the power saver dimming the screen, no reboot is occuring. I've gone into the messages, read and deleted this message among others, and no reboot. If I manually turn the screen off though, within a few seconds it reboots.
What is going on ?!
i have the same exact problem! I changed the battery the day before yesterday and it has not done it since, but im not sure if it solved the problem as sometimes it does not restart in one whole day!

Hi Guys,
I'm new here, but have been following and reading these forums for quite some time now. Great Stuff!
anyhow, my problem, recently purchased a HTC P3600i PRO. Put a custom ROM on it, seemed to be running great over the last few weeks, but my problem is this. Now and then my phone pda will lock up and I'm forced to reset it. What happens is, I am still unsure as to why this happens, but lately it's started freezing up, and when I click on my start button, it shows my menu, and then when I click programs, it shows as "empty" when I know there's nothing empty, it's filled with stuff, randomly this happens to my settings window as well. Basically stuff randomly dissapears from my start menu, shortly after, 5 to 10 seconds, it locks up. The next thing I do or click on after seeing things disappearing from my menu, it freezes. I then have to do a soft reset, and after doing a soft reset, it's as if it's done a hard reset and wants me to re-configure the time, click on all 4 corners, etc.. I use have to use SPB Backup to do a full restore of my phone/settings/contacts/software etc..
Can anyone help?
Also, just to update.. I restored my phone with a backup today, and it seems to be running well again for some strange reason. Is it because it's overheating? getting hot or what? I'm not sure what it's doing. Please help
Figured it out
My backlight whilst on battery was set to brightest. figured it was overheating as it felt warm too.. I turned it right down to 3 bars from lowest, and it's fine now
Guess it my screen and battery were getting quite hot and the CPU was overheating. All resolved.
I got a HTC p3600 for about 10 months. i used to have the backlight set to minimum.
now i update my rom and it got crashes so often, almost every day, and I need soft restart the device all the time when get crash.
The worse, sometime my display picture just broken + crash, and I need more than once to restart the pda. When I restart the device sometime the display just turn black color moving from top to bottom, or sometime with colourfull dots on screen, and the device does not want to be restart.
In that case i take the battery to turn off the device.
Sometimes i need to wait some minutes until i can restart normally the system.
It usually crashes when it is connected to the computer via usb (charging the battery) and i need to use it. (i check and it is very hot)
Also, when i use wifi it tends to crash (very hot too)
Since i upgrade the rom my backlight settings are set higher...i reduce the backlight, to reduce heat and test the system stability, but i really think it is crashing due to overheating.
I had my Surround lock up twice today requiring me to remove the battery. Once while searching in the marketplace and another when I was typing in a text message. Anyone else have any freezes yet?
I'm only on day 2 with mine, but so far no freezes here.
i've had mine since nov 8th and i haven't had any freezes yet. has it done anything else?
I had a couple freezes 2 days after buying it requiring me to pull the battery once, but other than that, its been running every day since then without a reboot just fine.
I did install several applications from the marketplace which did not work until i booted the phone so perhaps that had something to do with it. Made me wish for a stylus and a reset switch though! Some things never change...
Mine just froze one time after downloading a program and I think it had to do with low signal strength so the download hung then the phone was frozen. Other than that smooth as can be.

I've had the Market freeze a few times on me too, but that's it so far...and I did pull the battery
Ive got a new one for you. The microphone on mine stopped working.... I was in the middle of a call and I could hear "hello...hello..." but he couldn't hear me. I did a power cycle and still no go. So I took the battery out and restarted it and it decided to work again. Now the battery was pretty low, but not dead you think that the noise cancelation crap in the phone could stop working with a low battery?? That was a new one for me
Constant Freezes and Reboots
Mine began locking up after I installed about 20 apps in one day. Then it would randomly reboot itself. Then it got bad, It would reset to default: no apps installed, no accounts, no contacts. But the wierd thing is, randomly it would come back with all my settings. I contacted HTC throug email and got a reply within 20 minutes. Told me to do Hard Reset because OS got corrupt somehow. Hold Volume Up & DOWN while powering ON. Options come up on screen to Hard Reset. I have since reinstalled every app as before and it works flawless now. Loving my Surround!!
I had my first reboot today, I was typing in a text message and it hung on the letter "I" then when dark after 30 seconds or so. It immediately botted back up and has been fine ever since. Strange...
I'm having a sporadic problem with my xcover that i cannot diagnose. It happens very randomly, sometimes a few times a day, sometimes only 1 time in weeks. The phone functions normally and at some point i cannot wake the screen anymore, and then shortly after it freezes to the point that i need to hard restart it. So when this happens, none of the buttons do anything, so for example if i get a call the phone will ring for a bit with the screen black, me unable to do anything, then after a few seconds it freezes (if i try to call me it goes to voice mail) or if the alarm sounds i cannot stop it only if i pull out the battery, it just keeps playing at full volume with a black screen which is not responsive to the touch.
It's very frustrating that i cannot save any logs because i have to restart the phone in order to use it, and by then the problem is gone. I eliminated all the apps, so its not an app causing this. And its absolutely nothing specific that i'm doing to it. One time i just woke it up, unlocked it, looked at the clock, locked it, and when i went to wake it up again after 2-3 minutes, nothing, gone, completely unresponsive. Also, if i plug it in it makes the sound that its charging. Waiting does nothing, i tried to let it be for more the half an hour and its still the same. And it goes without saying battery is draining a lot faster when its in this 'dead' mode.
The rom with which it happens is the pre-rooted S7710XXAMB6_S7710OXEAMB3-20130713 stock rom.
Anybody has any clue?

D800 randomly reboots while in use throughout the Day
My lg g2 has been randomly rebooting throughout the day ever since I upgrade to 5.0.1 from 4.4
It usually happens when something potentially resource heavy happens such as loading a large image or installing ad blocker. It should not be restarting for something like that.
Attached I have my last_kmsg.txt file after it happened again.
It usually turns off when this happens but sometimes reboots. Also sometimes it doesn't turn back in immediately. Like I would have to hold the power button for 30 seconds, then it would turn off again. It eventually does turn back on.
Attached I have my last_kmsg.txt file after it happened again.
Thanks for the help.
Can anyone take a look at the last_kmsg file and try and give me a fix?
I would go back to stock(look at my newbie thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2633150)
If you still see the problem then send it in to LG. I had a similar problem and they covered it (even though i was out of warranty by a few days)
I had a similar issue except mine wouldn't charge for a while during the process, and my screen wasn't always responsive. I sent it back (extended warranty) and got a G3 for $100.
Full wipe and clean ROM install usually did the trick for awhile, with mine, if you don't want to send it in.
The problem started a few days back, after using my phone display just stops working ie the screen goes black as if it is switched off although I get calls and message notifications. This started to become more frequent but a couple of restarts with no display used to do the trick. The day before yesterday, no matter how many restarts display remained off at first I thought this might be a rom issue so I flashed stock rom. phone booted up and after 20 mins of usage, the screen started going black yet again. and no number of restarts could again fix the problem. Now the phone display turns up every once in a day for about 10 mins. Also when I get into the bootloader ( when the display works) the text all get distorted after some time with lots of green and pink lines running here and there. any guess what the issue might be? Is it the displays problem or any other hardware? Please help
