Question [Q] Safe Mode?

Hello all,

So I am having a little problem with my Epic. For the past couple of days (after coming from cyanogen) my phone has been rebooting on it's own after turning the screen off. At first I was using midNIGHT Rom then I switched over to Mammon's Bonsai.. I did wipe data x3, cache & dalivik. Both ROM's are EXT4 (not sure if that has anything to do with it)

Today I experienced something different, it did a reboot & I looked on the bottom left corner and it said Safe Mode. I have never seen that before. Could this have anything to do with EXT4? Is it really messing up my phone? I was thinking about odin back to stock dk28 but wanted to see what you guys thought it was before I did so. The strange thing is... It has happened on 2 different ROM's, if it was only one of them then I wouldn't have any worries.

Also not sure if this could be the problem but I have the AOSP Lockscreen (Edify version) that pfdmedic has posted on his site. Not sure if that would have anything to do with it either. Is anybody else having these problems? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Sorry, I am a n00b

I'm not having any problems but I have seen some posts where some people are having the random reboots but never the safe mode you said. I would Odin a nice clean dk28 and just start over. Somewhere along the lines something got messed up. That would honestly be your best bet. Good luck and keep us update

Thanks! Yeah I figured I would have to odin back (don't like to... but ya know) I'm going to odin now, flash back to same ROM and update you guys.

Once again thanks for the answer!

DONATE TO ME
I've seen safe mode once.

All I did was (3x clear+) reflash the rom.

Are you by chance using the aosp lockscreen. It was causing reboots on bonsai for me.
