I just got a lapdock in the fire sale, and I had faux 2.2 enhanced stock kernel. The webtop top bar didn't work so I flashed the stock kernel and all was well for a day. And today, (no reboots since reflash), when I put it into the dock, for some reason any mouse click would act like I was minimize/reopen the mobile display no matter where I clicked. So I rebooted my phone to clear webtop from memory, and now going to webtop reboots my phone. Just cleared Dalvik and Cache, no dice. Again, I'm on stock kernel, removed setCPU etc... Going to flash webtop again, don't think it'll be help though.
Any suggests?

Webtop over hdmi hack, and a few frozen blur Apps. No roms. I don't think I have any other mods. It worked today for a few minutes but its doing it again. Reboots even if in webtop already.

My Atrix (stock deodexed) would reboot when i put it in the car charger and I had to revert the Webtop over HDMI hack to get it to work properly. If this doesn't work for you a logcat log would be helpful in determining what is crashing your phone.

Ill see. I can't do an eclipse logcat cause adj randomly disconnects from eclipse like 2 seconds after I connect from forceful connection refusal. Can't really do software testing with this issue... Can't really do it wired cause I gotta plug it into the dock... will try wirelessAdb. When I get home. Works fine with my car dock, still need to reflash webtop partition. But going to be so busy tonight...

Having the same problem as soon as I put my phone on the dock it reboots but it works just fine with the HDMI hack no reboots at all. Redoing my phone and webtop doesn't seen to fix it. So I'm thinking I'm just going to sell it if it keeps doing it.

I frequently get this problem too. I can usually reboot my phone and it'll work, but randomly it seems that when I place my phone in, it takes awhile and the phone will continually reboot until I pull it off the lapdock.

On Darkside 4.0 w/ darkside's stock kernel and Fruitcake webtop 2.3.5.

Mine will continually reboot as soon as you get to the FP reader if you leave it on the dock after the first crash and reboot. It seems random. Still trying to get a logcat log through adbWireless.
Also right now trying to figure out how to compile a tun.ko module for the stock kernel - i've never done kernel work. Not sure where to get the aosp kernel? There's not really any instructions on it :(

Just had the strangest thing happen. After the latest crash I was going to try starting over from scratch(again), but when I went into root explorer then usr to set the start-oshwt-2.sh file back to normal the folder was empty no sub folders at all. After a few restarts everything came back.

This happens to me sometimes. I haven't found a good fix for it since I've been playing around with so many different ROMs and webtop hacks lately. The best I've found is to open the webtop screen right after I open the webtop program. Clunky, I know, but it hasn't failed me yet.

I find that I must open the dock after it gets into multimedia dock mode. Which takes up to 30 seconds. I must also undock when it returns to media node, assuming it doesn't reboot.
