Has anyone noticed randon reboots with Virtuous 3.1? I have noticed at least three times the phone on my hip sudddenly exclaims... DRRROOOOIIIIDDDDD! And the phone has rebooted.

Thoughts?
 
Good thought! I'll try Fix permissions first - I don't want to wipe out my Angry Birds again! ;)
 
This hasn't been happening to me at all, so more specific to your setup? Do a full Nandroid backup and reflash the ROM with a wipe, and see if it continues?
 
I've done the permissions reset - It does not happen often, only three times in the last month, so I'll see how the permission reset works first before re-flashing.

Frankly, it's the only problem I've seen in the ROM so far.

Also - I am running the alternate Kernel FWIW.
 
That's interesting. I use Virtuous and I NEVER get the Droid sound on startup. That's one of the things I like about virtuous is it got rid of that sound on startup. It's very annoying if you have to restart in a place you need quiet. Try the Kernel switch too. I figured if the developer made the rom, and made a kernel to go with it, that kernel probably works better with the rom than the stock kernel. I use the adrynaline kernel.
 
I was using the Adrynalyne Virt Custom Kernel v2 - Just switched back to the Stock Virt Kernel. We'll see what happens.

318sugarhill - You're correct about the DRRROOOIIIIDDD sound, but you can re-enable it in Virt Buddy. I got tired of my wife insulting my manhood because her stock DInc went DRRRROOOOOIIIIDDDD and mine didn't! ;)

The things we do for love ;)
 
Update - Well - after doing permissions fix, restoring the Original Virtuous Kernel and deleting some recently installed apps - I am still getting random reboots - I'm going to try a hard reset and I'll post back.
 
Mine started doing that, and it seems that it was related to one of the Widgets I had running - I got rid of all my widgets and it suddenly stopped. I've been adding them back one at a time to try to locate which one (if any). Might be something different for you, but just a thought.
 
I've been seeing a few random reboots since using Virtuous 3.1 as well. Have no idea the cause. Seems to happen about once a week.
 
I'm dieing to make virtuous do the Droid start up noise but o can't find the setting in virt buddy
 
My wife's phone would reboot regardless of what rom, kernal, apps, whatever. So I went back to stock for a warranty return....as someone somewhere posted that the snapdragons were at fault (during the time when the processor was on backorder and shoddy works provailed). Its a hardware thing, not software....or so the common wisdom of the interwebs says.
