Ack, this sucks! I downloaded AdFree Android from the Market, er, Play store (really, Google?) and after downloading the hosts file and rebooting, it started restarting every minute or two. It flashes the Sprint logo and makes the Sprint boot music and then as the lock screen come up. After all the media scanners run, it seems to be OK for a minute and then poof. I uninstalled AdFree, but that didn't help. Looking around I saw something that indicated the hosts files may be bad, so I got it reloaded, reverted the hosts and then uninstalled, but it still reboots. I can't get it to boot into recovery to wipe the cache - it won't respond to power button presses.
While I was trying to run down the AdFree problem, I saw another reference to a bad SD card and tried pulling the 16GB Class 6 SanDisk card I'd put in a week or two ago and with it out, it ran without rebooting. So, just leave the card out, right? Wrong. I'd moved about 100(!) apps with Apps2SD Pro to the card and I kinda want them back on the phone.
When I try to move them with Apps2SD lining up what's in the card, it takes me to the app's management screen, I select it to move to phone, and then it just hangs before rebooting. I've got the phone in airplane mode, all autorunning things shut off, turned off the clock widget, anything that could delay getting control of the system, but it's not seeming to work.
What are my options, short of a hard reset?
