Constant Reboot (once at homescreen)

[zehkaiser]

I'm running the leaked 3.1 for WiFi. I've had it on there since Friday evening without any issues. Yesterday I installed the OC kernel and didn't have any problems. Played games on it, emailed, and texted for around 5 hours. Plugged it in and went to bed. Got up this morning and tossed it in my backpack. Got to work an hour later and noticed it was rebooting constantly. I wiped data/cache and it's still rebooting. Should I start with restoring the 3.1 stock kernel? And does anyone have the .img file?

Personally I would restore it back to factory stock, using the images supplied by Motorola. Afterwards, let the real 3.1 download and update via OTA and then see if you can get normal usage out of it.

Spontaneously rebooting and constantly rebooting can only be determined to be a side effect of overclocking. If the device was meant to run at 1.5ghz I think Motorola would have just released it that way.

After a week of "normal use", go back to tinkering if you feel like it's safe and worth possibly bricking your unit.

Looks like a problem from oc.

Normally the reason why manufacturer did not put the cpu as 1.5G out of box is because for different cpu chips, their capability varies. So if you are manufactuere, you want to set your clock at a level when the instable % of cpu is very small

When it goes to 1.5G by users, the instablity may / may not occur to some users. Unfortunately, it looks like this is the case here.

That being said, it is not saying that your cpu is the one that not capable of running 1.5G. It has something to do with voltage too. The voltage at 1.5G is purely tested using kernel developer's lab and that result definitely will vary.

If I remember it right, oc kernel developers will need to tune down voltage at each cpu level to see the minimum stable voltage to cpu to switch at this frequency, so that your battery won't be killed running 1.5G at very high voltage.

I'll revert to stock 3.0.1. I just load the 4 images using fastboot, correct?

Also, I initially removed the OC, but still had the kernel installed. I thought that was the problem, but restoring stock speeds didn't solve the problem.
