Do you have setcpu or a OC kernal by any chance?

I am having this happen also... I have had to remove my battery three times today to reboot the phone.
I have set CPU installed, is that a bad idea?

I'm rooted with just the stock OS, no mods at all and my phone will randomly reboot every two or three days.

Mine has the new rom the leaked one and does this so often like after every 2-3 songs. Did it with the stock rom too.

No, I'm rooted with straight stock. No set CPU or anything of that nature. But like I said even then ill get complete freezes and then a reboot. Or occasionally ill attempt to open an app and the phone will reboot!!

did you wipe your SD cards when you flashed the new rom? I don't have this behavior but I did have FC's and such because of some files on the SD. I have NONE of this behavior. Something is wrong for you, nothing is wrong with JI2 and freezing/rebooting.

I used to have this problem all the time too whenever I tried to use the gps, but since I've applied the leaked update that problem has gone away. But it seems like you're experiencing the issue at more random times. Have you noticed any particular pattern? For example, whenever you try to play music in the background and read a website at the same time.

Yup mine is bone stock not Rooted and it will lock up just siting there GPS, wireless and Bluetooth off in a very good signal area.

Same here on both roms. I thought the lag fix was causing the freeze. But now im stock jit2 and root.
Had the same with gps and maps with old firmware.

I haven't had this issue happen since I applied the flashable gps fix. Maybe it was an issue with an app that wanted to use GPS running in the background?

This has happened to me several times while booting gps and only recently started happening while playing pandora, but not as frequent as while using the gps...not rooted

Mine has only frozen up once and it was at the end of a call screen turned off. I hit power and went to go unlock and it turned off again.. Would not turn back on but I know the phone was still on since I had apmobile enabled and it was still transmitting wifi connection. Oh I was using eugene's FrankenTwiz (underclocked to 400mhz)when it happened but same thing happened to my girlfriend and she had hybrid r3. Other than phone runs fine.

Ive had some odd reboots where I dont get a shutdown or boot animation or sounds, just freezes, goes black, keys light up, searching for signal boot process. Yesterday in maps trying to troubleshoot my gps. Stock rom,rooted, Ryan's lagfix.
Vibrant vibrating nicely now,Kthx!

Have the phone replaced. I had a phone that would randomly freeze and/or reboot. Nothing I did would fix it.
I talked to a T-mobile worker who had the same issue with one of the early demo-phones Samsung loaned to him. They just replaced his without every saying what the problem was.

I've been having this happen a lot lately myself, it happened to me before on stock ROM due to SetCPU, but now on the leaked ROM. I did not clean the SD card (internal or external), so will give that a shot when I have some time to copy files on/off the SD cards (one reason to dislike the internal SD is that I have to mount it to copy the files, ergh).

Random Vibrations

Just wondering if anyone else has this problem. My sgs running jp6 has a problem where it randomly starts vibrating.
It can be sat there in standby with no apps installed and all of a sudden for no reason it motor will vibrate for a few seconds. When i look nothing has changed.
It happens at random times also, some times it wont for hours and some time it will do it lots. I've also noticed it happening during calls.
At first i thought it must just be me, but a friend upgraded to jp6 and now his does it to.
Is this another fail on the phones part or just a quirky bug in froyo?
Sent from my GT-IFail using XDA App
maybe it's crashing apps on the background?
I can confirm that my JP6 firmware Galaxy S does this too.
Not sure what to make of it
after flashing jpm i had the same problem. I sorted it by clearing cache and factor reset in recovery. I hope its that easy for you

Its weird, I haven't had this problem on any other android phone, its happened twice in the last 24 hours. I'm completely stock. Unrooted
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I can count on one hand the number of phone calls I've been on since I got the thing, but I haven't had it shut down on me any of those times.
I've had it happen every time when rooted and had apps. I went back to no apps and still had it happen. I went back to stock 2.3.1 via the nandroid around here and locked it back up, still doing it.
The only thing I didn't test was 2.3 vs 2.3.1 but I do believe it started happening to me, at least, when going to 2.3.1, now that I think about it.
I have this problem but rarely. It will reboot the phone show the nexus startup screen without the backlit LED. Is that whats happening to you?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Same here, and I have used every T-Mobile Android phone to date, never seen anything like this before! This is the only phone I haven't rooted yet, not sure what the issue is...
It only happened once so I didn't think anything of it.
I didn't know it was a common problem.
Btw I will be exchanging my phone cuz this one has done really annoying bugs, like freezing in between homescreen slides and apps constantly fc during use
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
ya i havent made very many calls, but thats why it kind of concerns me. i have probablly made 10 calls and i think its rebooted 3-4 times while on the call or at the end of the call. i wonder if its a bug with the phone app?
did you root the phone or something ? if its still on stock firmware like how you bought it, then try to restore factory sittings, if its still doing that you then you have a I/O chip problem. and you will need to replace your phone.
thats what the HTC care told me when my HD2 used to have this issue

I would believe it was hardware if it happened randomly, but for phone calls only, that sounds like software.

Happened to me just now. Stock 2.3.1 with an international call.
I'm not rooted, I just cleared data for the dialer app and cleared cache on the whole system, we'll see if that does anything. Good thing I rarely use my phone for making calls or I'd be pissed

GB radios cause GPS drops in cm7?

Anyone else noticed this?
On two newest radios GPS locks instantly, works perfect for 5 minutes and then drops. Toggle GPS off/on real quick and it comes back and then works perfectly.
I've tried the two newest radios, fastboot wipes, and still get the same symptoms on two different glaciers.
Does anyone else have the same symptoms?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
I do too on CM7. Happened last night. Instant lock. Stops working after 30 sec. Exit Nav. Go back. Works perfect.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
I haven't tried GPS yet since I flashed CM7, but I'll test it tonight. This probably goes without saying, but you all verified the radio's MD5 before flash, right?
I havent used CM7 in a long while, but I have also noticed this problem in MIUI on a couple builds. turn on GPS and run Navigation app, locks on fast and works well. but after about an hour or so, GPS signal would drop and I would have to exit from Navigation and turn GPS off then on again then run Navigation. about 5-10 minutes later, it would lose signal again and I would have to repeat the process. even after wiping cache + dalvik and fixing permissions, the problem would still continue. it doesnt bother me all too much because I rarely use GPS...I think TDJ said it was an issue with the Navigation app itself, not sure tho
GPS Status & Toolbox can help your GPS lock faster, and might help it maintain connection better. Worth a shot.
Tried all of it. Multiple downloads, multiple fastboot flashes, multiple fastboot wipes, I use GPS status all the time, etc. I've tried all of it.
The stock radio from 2.2.1 seems to work fine, but lately takes awhile to lock.
Oh, and this is the same on multiple glaciers.

Yeah, good everything. It bugs so much. And as I thought more it did happen to me on CM7 just couple days ago. I recently moved to LA so GPS is KEY. I was yelling at my phone each 5 minutes when it would lose GPS. Then I would have to close it and re open then manually input the directions again all while avoiding the dreaded Los Angeles traffic... I wanted to throw this phone so bad. But since I fully wiped and reflashed CM7. Tried GPS once and it worked fine and didn't cut off for 20 minutes so I'm hoping it's fixed.
And I always perform fastboot wipes as well for what it's worth.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
I'm on cm7 nightly 175 and noticed constant drops too when using google navigation. Had to exit and restart navigation to get fix again.
Started playing around with other GPS programs, igo and sygics, and never had GPS signal loss!
I think it might be related to google navigation and not the actually GPS signal or kernel/ROM themselves. That would explain why we get GPS signal lock again once we restart navigation.

Yup, same here, lol. Let's keep in touch on these issues.
Pretty sure 26.03.02.26 didn't do this, try rolling back to that.
And don't exit navigation, just use the notification power widget to toggle GPS real quick.
Works for me.

Oh okay, good tip! I was on Panache radio that whole time, since then I've reverted back to the stock Froyo radio to see if anything gets better. So far data is the same for me though.

I too have the same issue. Tried every RADIO. All of them didn't solve the issue. Toggling GPS on/off seems to temporarily solve the problem. None of the GPS status or editing "gps.config" seem to have an effect.
just tried CM7 nightly 175 with stock radio, ran gps for about half an hour and didnt have any issues. locked in around 5 seconds, no lost signal or anything. seeming as if GPS is really hit or miss wonder if this occurs on stock rom and kernel?

The problem is not getting an initial lock. It is actually losing the lock around three to five minutes into navigation.

[Q] 3G dead for me no idea why D:

Well for some odd reason my 3G isn't functioning correctly. It randomly appears and disappear. Started happening after my last flash. If anyone could help me with this I would appreciate it. But for now no more flashing. Also I would appreciate to help out if anyone needs help.

Switched from ciscogee's rom to normal deodexed rom.. then put trailblazers mods cause I never really checked what all it had. and as soon as the phone booted up from flashing that's when the 3g started acting funny. but it's all good now. and no one to blame. just my mistakes.
Just wondered, cause I've had some random odd things going on...wifi not scanning/connecting, notifications not working, weather not updating, apps that did work fine fc'ing, earlier today my soft keys disappeared... they still worked just couldn't see them. Some times the phone runs like a Ferrari, sometimes like a pinto. Rebooting seems to fix it, or jump to another problem. Its almost like sometimes things don't get loaded correctly at boot. Not bad enough to make the phone unusable, but does have me scratching my head sometimes.

Hmm.. that's odd. the only problems I had was that my lockscreen wasn't showing even after I locked it and the whole 3g issue. The lockscreen problem didn't bother me much but the 3g one did. both fix themselves on their own. Rebooting does work. but also when it's booting up it's best to wait and let everything load instead of using it right away. But aside from this don't worry much. These bugs and error will go away soon as we get closer to our goal.

Oh, I'm not complaining! It's still MUCH better than Verizon had it!
Yeah, letting it boot and "settle in" is the way to go...still starts up a lot faster than stock. The only bug that really concerned me was the wifi. It only happened once, so probably just a fluke.

The lockscreen won't show until you toggle the "disable lockscreen" or whatever it's called on and off in TSM parts ---> lockscreen... it'd be a good idea to also choose a lockscreen too, and pick one you like
And I figured out awhile ago why we have some problems, including weather syncing, ticker sleep settings, unsaved options for social network options in ticker options, ticker time delay nut saving, etc etc... it's because there aren't proper permissions given to the dbdata/databases/com.android.settings/tt_prefs or something like that I managed to fix it, and I can release a quick patch that fixes it, I just didn't know anyone else was having the issues, haha

I noticed that my 3G will go out when I'm on wifi, however if wifi isn't connected to internet it will not automatically pick up the 3G. I would recommend if people continue to have problems look and see if toggling off wifi will help bring the network back online. Worked this problem and many others last night. Nearly "bricked" the unbrickable thankfully stayed calm and worked through each problem one at a time and soon will try and reflash CWM and then TB's mods for ec09.

[Q] Anyone else having these issues?

This just started happening the other day. Randomly during the day it will not allow me to adjust the volume ( ie from vibrate to loud). The status bar moves when i move them but it doesn't actually do anything. Also when this starts happening, voice input no longer works. I cant do voice text voice searches etc etc.
I have to shut it down and restart it, then everything will work again. But it only lasts for a few hours and then i have to do it again.
I am stock and not rooted.
Thoughts?
It doesn't happen to me on my modded and tweaked Slim Bean Beta2. I would recommend doing a factory reset and see if that fixes your problem.

Could i use this backup utility found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36499906
factory reset my phone and then install that backup or would that defeat the purpose of resetting it.
I am not a pro at this obviously, i just do not want to lose all my apps and settings i have. Or would they just reinstall once i linked the phone back to my google account?

I did have one, but i uninstalled it and still having the same issues.
I'm having the same issue, stock ROM rooted with franco kernel.
Not only that, but the volume gets very low almost inaudible and I end up having to reboot the phone.
I don't have any audio apps installed, noticed this while watching YouTube.
