i've been running 1.6.1 for a few days with no problems at all. but earlier today, my phone was just sitting on the table with the screen turned off. and so far, it has rebooted on itself about 4 times already. all within 1-2min time frame. it would boot up, then reboot again in a few mins. anyone else having this problem? i don't want to be using the phone later on and have it all of a sudden reboot itself for no reason...

EDIT: it is still rebooting by itself. its been going on for the last hour. i haven't done anything to it today. its still sitting on the table right now. it will reboot randomly, once it boots back up, it will sit for a while, then reboot again...any ideas to fix this?!

Just an update...

I downloaded the zip in this post and replaced the dchp file in /system/bin and it works great! I reconnect every time to my network without having to disable and re-enable my wifi. I think steve should incorporate this into his next build. If anyone else who has issues with wifi connecting, test this and report their results. Just be sure to either rename or back up your original file so you can revert back if you have any problems.

an update as well - been running this change since you posted. Performance has been great! Usually i'll have to toggle off/on throughout the evening and again in the morning to reconnect, but haven't once with this fix. Thanks for the great find!!

Bluetooth Voice Dial issue with 1.6.1

Steve,

Attached is the logcat file from phone at idle to pressing the bluetooth voicedial button on the headset, through the Bluetooth Voice dialer box appearing, saying starting up.... and then going no further....

The phone does prompt "Speak Now" through the headset before the bluetooth voice dialer locks up.

Hopefully this will help resolve the problem.

I'm having the same exact issue with my Jawbone ICON bluetooth headset. This really needs to get fixed for safety reasons.

Monster Clarity HD

I streamed Pandora no problem... although it gets choppy if I do anything on the Streak... whatever... worth mentioning though

thx again DJ_Steve ... you made the Streak usable....

Did you try to do a nandroid backup? I attempted to do that and it backed up successfully but once I booted it back up, it had the same problem as yours of rebooting every few mins. Had no choice but to go back to 1.5.1, fac reset and then back to 1.6.1.

Mine went crazy on me yesterday, nearly every android core app was force closing every second.

Rebooted 4 times to no avail. Had to pull the battery to stop all the popups!

Decided to reflash 1.6.1 (with no resets) and all is fine since.

I also deleted the scripts mentioned earlier in this thread as well from system/bin just to be sure that wasn't causing any probs.

Hopefully stable now :lol:

Query for DJ steve or fards.

Given this is creating a ext4 partition which is a journaled version of ext3 how is this going to affect the micro sd card.

Surely this will be writing more info to the sd card?

Will this affect how long the card will last?

:lol:

It creates ext4/3 on your internal SD, not external

ok if you're on 161 there's some scripts steve stuck in system/bin that are causing the adfree and other issues.

in adb shell (or a term or whatever)

su

cd /system/bin

rm chmod chown df mv mount umount

Or alternatively delete

chmod chown df mv mount umount

using root explorer from /system/bin/

it should work better then

Great, removing those scripts solved SU issues I had.

Thank you fards

I understand it uses internal not external but ext4 still uses a journaled method so more data writes to the memory card.

Wont this increase the chance of memory card failure? :lol:

Hey is there any way I can do this straight from my phone?

I don't want to wait to get home, to take shots of my benchmarks before I swap out my internal SD for a class 10.

thanks.

Ah, gotcha.

I thought that might be the case. But I wanted to be sure before I messed around in there.

Didn't get the 'term' = 'terminal'

So, is he saying that I could just navigate to /system/bin/ in root explorer and delete 'chown' and 'chmod'?

Thanks!
