[Q] System hang during avi playing and gaming. - Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I have a problem when I try to watch a video avi: after a couple of minutes the system hangs, the three Android LEDs light up and then restarts.
I noticed that the same routine happens when I play games like AirAttack HD Skies of Glory, etc..
I tried to flash the new rom 1.9.1 (I'm from 1.9.0 and 1.8.1) but nothing has been resolved.
I hope that is not a hardware problem. What do you think about it?
Thanks

Which player are you using? I don't have any problems with mxVideoPlayer. I watch TV series in standard DVD rip xvid format and they all run smoot. The player is also kickass itself

I am using MoboPlayer, but i tryed QQ player and more. I'll try mxVideoPlayer but I think wich that problem it's not depending by the player because it happen also when I play to games. I am scared that's a hardware problem, I wonder if it can be. Do you think that's possible?

am having the same issue as you, this happens to me when I use Netflix or playing games like Drag Racing. I had this happen to me on Stock AT&T, SD 1.9.1, SD 2.3 and I cannot figure out what is causing it. I too hope this is not a hardware problem.

I wonder...
Are you guys over clocking? If so, what to?

In these days i've noticed that the system hangs occasionally even if I didn't play or do nothing special. Mhhh..that scare me more. Because now I can't establish if it's a particular application that causes this problem.
I read somethig about the battery bay wich can causes the phone to reboot but i think my battery is well housed in his bay, i also mount a plastic cases wich make everything more fixed.
About the overclock of the cpu..yeah, personally I've tryed to clock up a little but how i wrote, to try solving that problem I changed my ROM by 1.9.0 to 1.9.1 (then tryed to go back to 1.8.1 and again to 1.9.1 without any apps) so i think that the setting i did to the CPU were lost, right?
At present, CPU Master Free says:
MAX: 998.4 Mhz
Min: 245.76 Mhz
..Really i don't know what to do...
I'll try to flash up the Simple Streak but i am pretty sure wich that will not solve anything.
Help?...
;(

just flashed simple streak and..hang and reboot when i was browsing the market ...................

I got a hd2 with similar problem,and I guess it'S becuz of that damn CPU,it's frustrating

do you mean wich the cpu could be damaged?! (

My streak is not overclocked, it even happens on the "stock" DELL Rom, (351). It appears the only ROM it doesn't do it to is the stock AT&T Rom....so it looks like I am selling this thing....dang.

So i am not the only one with that problem...
PeteSeiler2010, the AT&T rom it's downloadable? I want to try if it work with my streak too. Why did you want to sell yours unit if this rom works for you?
Can you tell me also where can I download the 351 stock rom?
What about the dell support? if we put the "stock" rom do you think they can repair it for us? yeah obviously by giving they generously some $$.

I am at work right now, if no one helps you by the time I get home from work, I will hook you up, it is very simple to go back to AT&T Stock. You need the multirecovery flasher and the stock AT&T update.pkg from the Dell Streak WiKi. I will check this thread when I get home and give you all the information.
EDIT: This is the link I found and used to flash back to pretty much any version ROM for the streak. I am only posting the link, I do not take any credit for of the instructions, I hope this link helps.
http://forum.pocketables.net/showthread.php?t=9694

Thank you very much Pete.
I read wich the lastest At&t rom is 353. I'll try it this evening and i'll let you know.

Ok, keep me posted. It scores lower on Quadrant, but I really don't care about that. I wish you luck.

Ok, ROM flashed. Yeah, it's not so fast. The menus movments looks jerky, the quadrant test skips automatically the cpu section, i don't know why (!!!). So when the test finish it doesn't return any score and the app go crash.
Anyway, in a first time I thought it works better than other ROM but..NOWAY. Reboot ruled the way.
I tryed with Dungeon Defender game and reboot went during the download of the maps and the other parts of the game. I tryed also with the avi files but..same problem. I am tired a lot. And unhappy too because I loved the streak, i always thought it can be the right tablet for a time but it seems not to be. If I sell and buy a new one, who will say me wich that problem can not happen again?

Sorry to hear that, I decided to try another custom ROM, so I went with Streakin' 354 v.1.1 by lordmorphous and I love it, no reboots either. You could it out and see if it helps.

Hey Pete, any news? you still have the problem or have you definitely solved it? I decided to take a break since I could not solve anything. But I miss Android..so today I decided to take a look at the forum and I saw a new rom created by an italian guy (I am italian too): "Italian StreakDroid 2.4 ...." I'll try it, I hope everything magically works with that one (my first rom with android 2.3) otherwise I'll try "Streakin 'by lordmorphous 354 v.1.1

My streak was the actual problem...it just started randomly buzzing and rebooting all of the time. I sold it for parts and went back to my Captivate. I miss the big screen but not the rebooted.

Sound Error
Hi Streakers...
My Name is Sam, Indonesian, i had some problem like you too .... but i think this is the SOUND hardware problem ....
have you fixed this problem ?? not yet for me

WOW...This ROM is amazing !!! Great job Stephen...
Even with bugs I keep it ! The UI is wonderful
Now Ive got a 5" Iphone UI with Android...Welcome to paradise...
As alway, great job Steve, is an amazing fast rom, but i just couldn't get over the fact that i am using a iphone...lol. I am sure this rom is going to be great but its just not for me. Back me 146 i go...
Thanks steve, im downloading now...Any screen shots at all? In terms of theme development is it classed as a miui rom?
yep its classes as miui its based off nexusone miui but with enough framework changes to let things work
Awesome! Just found your post on the other thread with a link
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0STPWGMyAE&feature=youtube_gdata
So I take it, its stable enough to tweak the framework-res? Is there a way to loose the Chinese? As the baseband shows as error... can I flash via clockworkmod straight from your 1.4.6?
baseband error only shows if your not using the streakdroid updated amss file. and you can have a good at removing more Chinese - this ports only been workedo n for about 2 days (started screwing with it thursdayish)

So can i flash straight from 1.4.6?
neat. now lets get steve to make a streaksense rom. i like that we are making alternate ui roms, means someday we will have htc sense.
I would love the toggle options on the drag down bar and folders, but I'm also agaist the iPhone UI. Still, very cool
Wow I'm well impressed! I dread to think what trauma it mustve caused altering this to work on streak!
Iphone comments... I had an iphone & loved how it worked, speed, ease of use and the UI but I don't like apple. The iphone UI is very reliable and strong so alot of people like it but apple ruin it by not playing ball! Miui is completely different... looks similar but we all know that looks only get you so far
I flashed from 1.4.6 (don't forget to factory reset) you can flash from 1.2+ (as long as it has steves new baseband)
*LEDs stay permanently on?
*Chinese has gone on most settings, just a few background bits.
*superfast and loads of settings!
*so far I can't root

However i keep seeing new reviews which leads me to think it still works and some of the reviews are coming from fellow vibrant users. Could someone see if they can
A) Find the app on your phone through the marketplace
B) Is it supported?
i emailed the dev on it, hopefully he'll get back to me soon. But if anyone else has any answers or your having the same problem... just let me know =D
thanks!
Once this is working i will start posting ROMS that work, how well they work. I owned alot of N64 games so i'll at lest post about those. If you have it working and would like to post what works and what doesnt I'll keep this first post up to date with your guys' input. =D Thanks guys again!

*EDIT*
Ok, i just turned it off and im still not seeing n64oid in the marketplace. I can still see it on my laptop but its still saying unsupported device. I am on android 2.1 this isnt a 2.2 only thing is it?

ROM Gripper ++ seems to have the largest selection for an app on your phone. Just make sure you own original copies of the games you're downloading.

You need to upgrade to 2.2
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk
but then my lagfix wont work =( and before the lagfix i score around 860 and after im getting 2270. Even with 2.2 i was getting 870... i dont want 2.2 if i cant have the lagfix.
Dude... Lagfixes are included in damn near every rom here. Your quadrant score is a very superficial number like how many freckles one has. It all comes down to how smooth the UI is and I can assure you they all are very smooth and each is very unique in its own way. Do you want the ability to show your friends a high quadrant score? Or would you rather show them Wave Race 64 or any game you own 64 wise. I use this quite a bit and people in my area are more prone to be blown away with high end mobile nostalgia than a static screen . Take the plunge for flash alone at the least.
i know, but when i dont have my lag fix on my phone is stupid slow. Like, scrolling through my apps is glitchy and lame till i have the lag fix on.
Im using the vibrant toolbox to root my phone and then i put on ryanZA's OCLF lagfix.
is there a better one/way to speed up the phone?

Yes. Voodoo. The Overstock kernel is also VERY smooth. I don't even remember what my phone was like.before Voodoo.
Really if you've already rooted, there's no reason you shouldn't go ahead and upgrade to 2.2. Voodoo is a far better lagfix, and if you get a kernel like Overstock that supports it, you can have awesome enhancements like Voodoo Sound and Color, and BLN (let's you use your touch keys as an LED notification, blinking and all).
i actually remember why i went back to 2.1
i had just upgraded to 2.2 and that night my phone almost commited suicde. It was on my desk all by its self, nothing on it, under it or around it. It kept buzzing at me at like 3am till i finally got out of bed to see what was up.
It was SCREAMING hot and the screen had a flashing thermameder on it. It was all plugged in fine no problems... i of course unplugged it for the rest of the night. But yah...
so i just put 2.2 back on my phone. I turned off the lag fix, uninstalled the program, turned off launcher pro and uninstalled it then unrooted my phone and did the upgrade with kies mini... got done installing and rebooted and now my phone is just sitting here going buzz.......buzz.......buzz buzz...... in about 1 minute intervals on an off screen...
**EDIT**
opp got it. I Went into clockwork and reset everything then rebooted and its up. But anywho, has anyone elses phones tried to commit suicide while they were sleeping?
PS- holy crap this phone is really laggy now that i have it all "normal" ... =( strange how use to stuff you get huh...
so should i root first, put on OverStock and then apply voodoo?
First of all, stop caring about quadrant scores. Smartbench is where its at. Quadrant scores are incredibly inaccurate and easy to fool, not to mention heavily pro-htc.
Edit:
Anyways, for your lag problem, try installing a reliable custom rom like bionix-v or trigger, their stock kernels also come preinstalled with voodoo.

Smartbench, i'll remember that. =D Thanks for the heads up so i dont look as stupid in the future ;P
EDIT
Can i get a quick link to those Overstock and Voodoo, says search is disabled try again in a few minutes. I can just flash that rom onto my phone with the vibrant toolbox right?
EDIT again...
I just tried rooting my phone and it saying it failed to install the packages... =P I think between my phone almost cooking to death and not being able to root is why i went back to 2.1..... im using vibrant toolbox.
Overstock is on page one of the android development section. Don't worry so much on a separate link to Voodoo just read the OP's of a rom that you will settle on found also in the android development section. Listed there they will tell if the rom already has Voodoo injected also if it comes activated upon flashing or needing to go to recovery and initiating. Over 3/4 have voodoo in them have fun. I've never used tool box but all of the flashing for me is done through recovery.

[Q] Help with my X10

Hi all, I have bought my X10 some months ago.
I upgraded regularly my phone up to the first dualtouch release (rooting the phone regularly).
I experienced random problems with the stock roms (reboots) when using some applications and in particular when data is on.
The battery used to go hot sometimes and I had to remove it and put it back in place so that the phone could work again.
I have tried some 2.2 custom roms and the most stable I have found is the tripnmiui 2.2, probably in my case more stable than the stock rom.
I went back to the last 2.1 stock release (2.1.B.0.1) but the video recording works badly and I have reboots when capturing videos generally after 40 seconds.
I have noticed it reboots with trip's rom as well if I take videos in 720p.
I have not tried to go back to older stock releases supposing the last one was performing better.
Would you please suggest me a 2.1 stock rom or a 2.1 custom rom where the camera and video work just fine and I have little battery problems?
If there is a 2.2 rom where I can use video and camera like in the stock rom, would you please suggest it to me?
I am really pissed off.
I am an Ericsson employee (not SE) and I bought this phone so that when I am at the customer they do not see me hanging around with an Apple or a HTC or a Samsung (I received some comments in the past about going around with a Nokia).
But if this phone is so bad I swear I am gonna change it asap and never get another one (in Italy they unfortunately give us company phones which are more like K550, like stone age phones which I will never use).
If there is a way to fix it good, hoping that we get 2.3 asap, either way this is gonna go for sale and I'll get a new samsung or a HTC maybe.
Please help me if you can.
The 2.1 ROM bitsnacker by go3asy with camera enhancements and speed enhancers and performance mods is awesome. Plus it looks cool. No problems at all. Give it a look in the development section.
I personally love the phone. Gingerbread hopefully comes at the end of the month. Maybe.
If you need any links for things I will post them when I get home if you need any or help the flashing stuff.
Just let me know or others know.

Any of you have experienced camera problems (reboots) with stock roms in particular the most recent when capturing at 720p?
It is really strange in my opinion. I also got random reboots while using applications and that battery priblem (it becomes hot at times when data is on and the phone starts rebooting or does not turn on for a while).
Thanks Voelker, I will surely give it a try. I guess it would be great if you can provide the link as well. Thanks in advance.

Ok, I have found the ROM and installed it.
I still have an issue with my video recording in HD.
Recording stops after a few seconds and the system reboots.
Using bb_54 according to the build.
I am thinking something is wrong with the camera.
I have seen that there is a post with a zip file to fix the camera.
Maybe something went wrong in some of the flashing???

Yeah the reboots shouldn't happen. You can use flashtool over or seus to see if that can repair it. But I hope your problem gets solved.
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
The key words here is that you mention the overheating.
This was caused by a early baseband that overheated the chipset.
So you have residual damage on the motherboard and that causes the reboots.
I had the same issue.. after they replaced my motherboard all was good.
Overheating happens really rarely to be honest though.
I don't understand if there is a relation between overheating and video not working.
I just wanted to understand where the camera firmware resides and if and how it is flashed when changing baseband/rom.
Ok, last test performed. Went back to an old stock 2.1 release (2.1.A.435). Video recording in HD still causing reboot after a variable amount of time. Some other random reboots happen and the overheating problem happen sometimes as well. I would definitely say it is a hardware problem then. I will try to give the phone to an authorized maintenance center.
The X10 is now having maintenance. Let's just hope they won't waste my time trying upgrades or SW repairs.

[Q] Touch screen problems -- any one else?

The response on the touch screen for my atrix is all screwed up, I was wondering if anyone else had these issues.
I first got the phone in april and it worked flawlessly, for the last week the touch screen response has been really weird. sometimes it doesn't recognize input at all, other times it thinks i'm touching somewhere else, it often randomly selects a point on the screen completely on its own.
i'm unlocked, have a custom recovery. i started getting the issues on alien3, i flashed a new custom recovery and alien4 and i still have the problems.
i'm worried its hardware at this point, and i don't know what options i have for warranty since i got it on ebay. am i screwed?
First try again flashing everything from the start.
1. Flash the newest recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204500
2. Flash this radio for GingerBread ROMS: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1163009
3. FULL WIPE - Dalvik, Cache and data. (Also internal&external SD if you want to)
4. Flash any FULL WIPE ROM you want, like Alien #4.
5. If still didn't resolve the problem and you want to try more stuff, try flashing other kernel ?
Like: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1156040
You can try also flashing full SBF, read more about it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136261
Try Touchscreen Booster from the Market.
Went through the same pain and read everything on XDA until I found a thread about the app.
Was driving me nuts but have had a stable screen for 3 weeks now.

If you problem doesn't get solved by clean flashing a new ROM, then it's a hardware issues -> as in "you need to replace digitizer".

Im having the same issues and went about flashing the whole phone to no avail. I will for sure try touchscreen booster and post my results. If that doesnt help, is it the digitizer that needs replacing or the lcd? Digitizers are a lot cheaper on eBay lol
The only app I found says its for the galaxy. Installed it anyways, selected "super optimized settings" and so far so good. Thanks so much Andy_Thatcher!!

this actually seems to be helping a lot. thank you. i will try a new kernel in the future but this is working great right now.
Apologies, did mean the Galaxy app.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I have these issues to. They appeared randomly and there are random periods where it goes away, then comes back, sometimes worse than others. The SGS Touchscreen Booster app definitely helps, but it doesn't make it go away for me.
The only thing I haven't tried listed in this thread yet is flashing a new Kernel.
I've considered buying a new digitizer and replacing it myself, but the fact that the occurs so randomly and can even sometimes stop after rotating the screen, I'm very hesitant to do so.
i have tried this, but the problem still persist. I tried Optimized & Super Optimized settings, but its still the same
Even though the affects sound the same the cause maybe different. I know that sounds unlikely but I know that the Screen Booster worked for me.
There are a couple of other paths you may want to look at.
I was always convinced that the issue was not hardware based otherwise no matter what I did to the software it wouldn't have changed the fault but software changes did.
In my case before I implemented the app I would get a few hours respite by installing another base.
I have never used AT&T's OTA for Gingerbread so have been able to to SBF to what ever build I liked. For a while going to the initial Froyo build worked but as said only for a day at most. I had reached the point where I didn't care if it was Froyo or Gingerbread I just wanted a working phone.
No doubt I will get some flack for that comment however my phone has never hard bricked and I have been up and down the builds like a man possessed.
This is where I put the statutory do this at your own risk. It worked for me but I do not know the history of your device.
Then I came across this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131649 thread.
It worked ! Well for a couple of days.
At that point I started get get some respite to SBF'ing to Pudding 2.3.4 Pre-Root.
My trouble with all of this is that I do not understand the issue. I suspect it was a software glitch I created due to messing with builds. Screen Booster worked for me and if I were you I would spend a little more time before going down the other paths.
Again how I got it to work was as follows.
Install.
Set to Super Optimized, initially there was little change in the behaviour of the phone and I thought it was a bust.
Rebooted
Set to Super Optimized again and it started working.
If anyone should know why this screen behaviour happens please let me know. I am close to getting another Atrix so I can take Screen Booster off this one to try and figure it out.

Has anyone gotten Spectral Souls to work?

I'm on CM7 6.5.8 and the game keeps bringing me to the same screen and says maybe the server is busy. I've been trying during different times of the day but with no luck. Sometimes it runs for a few minutes then says server busy but other times it says it automatically...
Can our phone even run this game? They say that there will be a hardware check before downloading but seeing as I never got to the part where it connects to a server, I can't be too sure if it is compatible or not...
So has anyone tried this game on the O1?
it is not compatible for the o1
Oh ok. Thanks for the heads up thought it had something to do with the custom ROM...
It IS compatible with the o1; one of my friend had standard froyo rom non-rooted and was playing it. Of course he paid 15$ for the legit version. Now that I rooted his phone and go andy's rom on it, we have not put the game back on, but if stock froyo can play it, I don't see how the other roms would not.

Oh... So I'll need a ROM based on official sources =c CM7 versus Spectral Souls...
I did not say that, and I would be really surprised if this was the case, as stock roms are less performant than CM7 or Andy's or whatever. I just said that it works on stock froyo 2.2.1. My point is more about the fact that except if you are very lucky / persistant / knowlegeable in " other ways " for all I know and have looked around you'll have to pay to get it to work Their team is very up to date on " alternative " ways to get the game working . Enjoy

I've been reading in other forums about this game and it seems like some custom ROMs are unable to run it. That's why I thought it had something to do with mik's CM...
I play it on my O1 with mik´s CM7 and it runs smoothly, don´t know what´s the problem then.
