Hey,
I am using the AllianceRom with safestrap, AllianceRom installed on stock rom slot. Recently, my phone would suddenly reboot while I am using it, making a call etc, then get stuck in a boot loop until I pulled out the battery, then sometimes it would start up well or get back in a loop.

What I have tried,
- Installing ROM to romslot1.
- Flashing stock verizon rom, phone worked normally for a while, I tried to get back to AllianceRom or RootDeOdex_NCG rom, but no reboots started again after like 2 happy hours.

Leaving phone alone for like 2 hours powered off, then when i turn it on, it works, for like a few hours, then bootloops... :confused:

Ideas?

Are you using WIFI? I had bootloops after updating to NI2 whenever I would connect to WIFI. Wiped caches didn't work, had to revert back to a backup ROM

Well yeah, I'd use WIFI after installing the rom to install my apps, and everything would go well, I'd even install apps and use the phone for a while. Then sudden boot loops.

Update: Just installed stock rom, and even re-partitioned using the

PIT file. It boot looped afterwards, then like 2 minutes later, it run, phone is working, holding breath.

So far:
only had one surprise reboot. Which I'm thinking is not so bad.
I am on stock verizon still, can't do a wireless hotspot. feel caged! Noticed I cannot send sms unless I use a third party SMS application, might be due to the fact that i'm not on verizon :rolleyes: but I'm using Hello SMS (it rocks) so eff it.
- I rooted so I could get rid of the annoying "Sim card from unknown source" message, by uninstalling Setup Wizard. and restored some of my apps with Titanium.

Waiting till Sunday, if all goes well, I will install safestrap and it's back to customRom goodness...
Thanks guys for the help.
