I believe this new bootloader is unlocked too, just done right   I did a reboot, yes. I think a bootloader is only used while booting so I did a reboot.

Sorry - I had just assumed that this bootloader was locked and that the hypothesis was that this fixed the problem because it was the unlocked bootloader that caused the problem in the first place? Was I mistaken and this new bootloader is also unlocked - but hopefully fixed?

Sorry, doesn't work for me. Still reboots. I don't understand where is the trick.  I have rooted my phone with the package from the http://huaweig300.co...-ics-pack-linux and this zip file contains the files oemsbl.img and bootloader.img with the same md5 sums. Here it is:

dde217de9bc4adbf5398db1e034f2d62  ./bootloader.img

Is this the correct version of the fixed bootloader?

Thanks

Hey folks, if you're receiving a "permission denied" error in the command prompt when running the script make sure you set root access to "apps and ADB" under developer options.

Had to do that on mine before it worked.

You are announcing it as "new bootloader that fixes 3g reboot issue". There are already some users in the irc chat testing it because they get reboots very often, so they can confirm if this bootloader fixes the issue. Anyway, I hope you won't have to change the title of this thread  

Fair point, updated title accordingly!

Thus far no reboots since installing this last night although they were rare for me anyway.  Glad to hear some positive responses from others.

Are you sure you are running the right script? (The bootloader one and not the root one)
There is no reason this wouldn't work for you to.

No reboots so far but I haven't been moving around much and that's when it normally happens for me. I'll report back again later...

[vibracopilu]

Ok, so in 20 hours of use & standby with 3G enabled and wifi disabled I got only one reboot, compared to 5-10 reboots a day that I was getting with the old bootloader. I am monitoring with the Boot Logger app.

EDIT: 2 now

Had only the one reboot today in one of my usual spots.

[vibracopilu]

Yaay, got my third reboot

[fuddman]

No reboots for me, 24 hours on.

[pOcHa]

I always used the geno kolar's bootloader unlocker, does it have the same problem? I personally didn't had any reboots...

[dalyer]

No reboots in c. 24 hours but I wasn't really wandering in the usual areas where they happen so I'll continue to test and report back. Hope this helps.

Can somebody outline the theory of operation of the fix? Just curious...

[raverrr]

No reboots here since. (deliberately doing what usually induces them)

[Buffalo Soldier]

I had one reboot last knight, with phone on the desk in bedroom.   I heard some people on other forums saying that they don't have reboot problems cause they used Genokolar's unlockbootloader.exe, so I want to try this. I found it here: http://www.modaco.co...e-updated-1513/
Is it the same procedure, just connect it to usb, run the script and hope for the best???
My last update.app was B926, now I'm on CM9 R8.

[daVil]

Before this bootloader I always used the one from Genokolar and had random reboots on every ROM

[Buffalo Soldier]

OK, thanks for the answer, I used this one: http://huaweig300.co...rkmod-recovery/ , so I thought it's worth a try, but now I see it's not. Thank you once again.

[dalyer]

33 hours and no reboot here. This morning I did wander through an area where I often got reboots and no problem so far. I'll keep monitoring it.

FWIW That's what I used originally to unlock/root etc. and I have the reboot problem. I am now obviously on the new one mentioned in the original post of this thread.
