I had posted this in the stickied bootloader thread, but I'm pretty sure I posted to the wrong spot. If a mod wants to move this to another thread then by all means...
My kaiser is doing something I haven't heard of yet. Recently its started to act funny after 6 months of no new software, tinkering, flashing - nothing.
3 days ago I had to restart due to the sound cutting out and I got stopped at the bootloader. After fiddling with it, soft resetting multiple times, taking out the battery (just random low level troubleshooting) it booted into windows. This happened sporadically one or two more times.
I have also noticed that in the last 3 days the phone will suddenly drain to no battery without any warning. I will have 25% battery and be on a call for 20 minutes, then have the phone completely power off. normally, windows alerts me to high heaven with multiple warnings, etc. None - just powered off. After 30+ minutes of recharging in the off state, I powered on... bootloader again.
I hooked it into USB and sent the mtty "boot" command. This worked, it booted straight into windows. Due to my frequent sound problems I figured I'd load on a new radio "just in case" - so I loaded on the eMo radio via the sd card method, and soft reset. Again, bootloader. So I gave it the mtty BOOT command and got into windows... so far so good.
I soft reset just to see what would happen - bootloader.
Now I find myself having to soft reset frequently because the sound will just stop working at random. Of course when I soft reset I get bootloader but just today I found something very interesting: If I plug the phone into USB then simply soft reset it will restart and go right into loading windows. This works from inside windows as well as when I'm stuck at bootloader.
Is this common? My rom is Dutty's 6.1 from April 29. My radio is currently 1.71.09.01.emo. Thanks guys
*edit* now every time I hang up a phone call the earpiece starts making a "TV snow" or "power lines" kind of noise. This of course requires a soft reset which may or may not send me into bootloader. it varies.
