Motorola Backflip :: It Won't Stop Rebooting
Jul 17, 2011
i turned off my backflip for recharging earlier today. when i turn the device on now, it just keeps rebooting. i will see the Motorola Blur logo, then the ATT 3G animation, screen goes black, then comes Motorola blur logo again, follows by the ATT 3G animation. it seems like the phone is stuck in a "rebooting loop".I tried to pull the battery out and put it back it, it does not help.

My BACKFLIP will reboot itself every few minutes. I don't have to be using it or doing anything with it and it will just reboot itself. It will reboot during a call, texting, charging or any other time it decides to do it. I have done several factory resets and it still does it. It has worked fine for almost 2 years and about a month ago it just started rebooting. There's nothing I've tried that will resolve this problem. The way it looks on the BACKFLIP page its a major problem with a lot of the BACKFLIP phones. This is the second BACKFLIP my family has had the same problem with. My brother just got tired of messing with his and got a new phone. If I could afford the upgrade charges of a new phone I'd do the same thing!

During an exam, I can get in trouble if my phone goes off, even if it just vibrates.I've noticed that even when I have my phone in silent mode, it still vibrates when I receive a text message. How do I turn this off? I do not use the phone for anything other than calling and texting; I have no apps or email accounts or google or anything else set up with the phone. I wouldn't even know how to use them, to be honest. I just want silent mode to mean everything is completely silent, no vibrating or anything.

Is Rooting of Backflip and Installing Customized Roms Illegal?What kind of effect these roms will have on the mobile? In Many ROMS they have mentioned as Android 2.2 or Android 2.3.4.

My Droid X2 keeps rebooting and crashing over and over. When I get past the lock screen it says. com.motorola.service.main has stopped responding or something similar to that, then it cycles through every other app saying they all crashed and the phone then reboots. I did not install anything prior to this and it was completely random...I am currently unable to use my phone right now since it will not stop rebooting. I have pulled out the battery and SD card to no avail.

My stepmother is planning on moving to Sprint and said I could have her Backflip after she did. I don't have a data plan and don't plan on getting one soon. If I scramble the APN with her disabled SIM card, then insert mine, will it keep those settings so that I don't get caught with it?

Alright so my blackberry curve has been rebooting for quite some time now but it always manages to come back to normal at one point, but today, all day today, its been rebooting and I have no idea why. Right now it died and I put it in the charger and it's still rebooting. It turns on, the red LED light comes off the clock timer thingy pops up and it restarts again.. it doesn't even get to the starting up bar..

I was using my phone just fine this morning. Then all of a sudden I went to use it and it went black and then starting rebooting over and over. It has turned on fully 3 times now but once everything is loaded on my screen it shuts back down and starts over. It has been doing this for over an hour. I have taken the battery out and left it out for a little bit and it still isn't working.

i am now on the 3rd Storm in as many weeks. Each one suffered the same problem. Random reboots/restarts.Phone 1 was the worst - I purchased it as a 2month old used unit. I wiped it clean at purchase and setup for my use. I did not enable Blackberry services with Vodacom for 2weeks. In that time it behaved with no problems. A day after enabling BB Services with service provider the random restarts would happen. It was primarily during BB Messaging, but was not limited to that. It would restart during calls. Other times i would pick it up off desk and see that it restarted. (pin was requested).There were times that it would restart 3 to 4 times in succession before eventually "stabalising"i visited Vodacom and was told that all Storm 2's before Mar 2010 were recalled" I was given a replacement unit.Phone 2 - Service Provider configured phone for me and restored only contacts. emails and messages. Next day restarts began. Display goes white and error message displays for a few seconds. Then phone restarts. It would reboot totally randomly. Taken from pocket. whilst driving, during a call, laying on desk. Vodacom gave another unit after testing it for a few hours.Phone 3 - Only contacts restored. Original OS and settings used. Random restarts 3 times in one day as with phone 2. It however seemed to be "worse" at certain location "my office".A technincian suggest setting to 2G only. This worked okay for 2 days and then i took from pocket and it had restarted.Event log just said powered off and powered on. No error message.This is a day later and no more reboots. But phone still on 2G.I see that restarts/reboots are common place with the Storm2 and wonder if it is a design fault.i am gonna re-enable 3G and watch again.

1) removed battery wait 30 sec and put back in. NO LUCK
2) removed battery wait 6 min and put back in. NO LUCK

I have a Blackberry 8350i that has the current updates but will still not stop rebooting constantly. This started two weeks ago, so I updated the phone. It was fine for a day and now it is non-stop. It is to the point where I can't get in one full business conversation. Today alone (5/4/12), it has reset 40 times; Often repeats 3-4 times in a row

My Curve 8530 keeps trying to reboot. I have found a solution to the problem in the Blackberry Knowledge Base but in order to use it they want me to provide IMEI number which is obtained from the options page of the device. This is impossible because it keeps rebooting and you can't get into the options page.

For all you EE customers out there here is what I did and how I got it working on 2G and 3G but not 4G.
1. Get a phone that can take your 3G SIM. I found my Nokia Lumia 800 for carphone warehouse worked.
2. Put your SIM in and let it register 2G.
3. On your 920 with no SIM in, go to Settings -> mobile network and TURN DATA OFF
4. Get your now registered SIM from your old/other phone and put it in your 920 and boot it up.
5. The phone should now boot and not crash.
6. Go to Setings -> Mobile Network and change "Highest Connection Speed" to 3G and then turn the "data connection" back on.
7. Life should be pretty good now (unless you live in a 4G area).

Ever since upgrading to the latest software 7.1.0 Bundle 1149, my Bold 9900 is consonantly rebooting. Usually after a phone call, it decides to reboot. So annoying. Its also extremely slow and the battery life is awful. Its only about 6 months old and constant problems.

My IPhone 3gs has started to cut out mid call and then reboot I notice through the internet this is a common occurance how can I stop it doing it. It is very infuriating as it doesn't do it all the time its intermittent, when it does cut out its normally around three minutes into a conversation.

I have a 6 day old Curve 9350. Whenever I do any heavy internet. i.e. streaming video, downloading music, loading w web pages (tabs) at once, etc. it just reboots. It acts like it overheats, but it never gets to the point where it gets hot. I'm trying to get it swapped out with Sprint. Or is this warranty thing?

For some reason my phone turns on, and then the screen showing "Blackberry" with the loading bar appears, but it gets about 3 quarters of the way then flashes off then starts to repeat the same process. I am lost on what to do, even after reading several solutions that haven't worked! Also when I plug it into my computer and open Blackberry desktop software, it recognises the phone but won't connect to it!

My phone is on this weird state now that it freezes and nothing happens, not even the little watch comes out and so I have to reboot it. But when I do, I have to use it non stop doing whatever for about 3 hours or so, not being able to leave it alone because if I do, even for a minute it will freeze all over again and the process will start over.But also, sometimes when I reboot it, it doesn't being to reboot. It just stays with the screen shut off and eventually the little red light would turn on and off but nothing else will happen. I left it in that state for about 10 hours and nothing.Right now it has been frozen for almost an hour, Ive had to reboot it about 25times today and I´m beginning to give up and getting scared for my phone.

Noticed that anything using the wireless data was going really slow and then it just stopped any transmission. Took it off the wifi to see if there was any difference, same thing... and then a popup appeared that said DNS and a button ok... the screen locked up so I couldn't click anywhere on the screen, so I did a battery pull.
Now after the battery pull it gets to the blackberry loading screen. It loads to approx. 20%, then theres a white screen with text in a very small font and a button reset in the middle. This appears in less then a second, and the screen is locked so i can't press reset. It now does this a continuous cycle.

It's been over a year since I posted here, because it's been that long since I had a problem. (And people say the Backflip is not any good). Anyway I tried to add another gmail acct this morning. And got an error msg "unable to establish a secure connection to server". After trying several times over a few hours, I began to wonder if it was Google or not, so I tried a hotmail account, same basic errror msg. Tried to check for any updates, and got the same basic msg.I can access websites through the browser, just not do anything related to system files.Talked to AT&T (No Help of course), as far as I can tell all settings are correct, even though I know there is a setting somewhere that is not right.

My phone was working ok until I had to turned it off during the boot process when an important meeting. I turned it off by removing the battery as I didn't it to wait the boot process. After that the phone just don't finish booting up. I can see the blur logo, then goes into the at&t logo. Sits there for few minutes and reboots.

What can be done to improve battery life on the Backflip, without turning off Happenings and email? It seems to shut off constantly. Is this normal or does it need exchanged?

I check my 'Happenings' and find there are hundreds of new messages, which is weird because I keep up with reading the new ones as they come in. As I page through them, I find that the 'new' happenings go from current messages to some that are a week old...in other words, happenings that I've already read a week ago are coming back as 'new'. This has happened several times.

So, I tried updating my phone to 2.1 via the method provided.Using an SD card reader I have confirmed that the .zip is on the root drive of the SD card, and is also the same name as it was when downloaded.However, when I go to About Phone -> System Updates, it notifies me that my system is up to date and no updates are available.
