Constant rebooting after last night's OTA update

I have a Droid RAZR HD and did an OTA update last night upon receiving the notification on screen. This updated the system version to 9.18.79.XT926. It updated successfully according to the on-screen notice.
However, the phone immediately began rebooting about every 3 to 5 minutes after the update. I had no problems with chronic reboots until the update. The phone is virtually unuseable. Has anyone else had this issue?

Very interesting. I have no idea why they would issue 2 different updates like that. one for the MAXX and another for the HD. Hilarious that one of the issues to be "mitigated" was the "random power cycle and resets." LOL. Right after the update, I started getting resets every 3 to 5 minutes and never had that issue before.
Be that as it may, I did try going into safe mode first, and hoped that would resolve the problem. It didn't. I then did the factory reset and the phone is still rebooting every few minutes.
I called Verizon tech support, and to their credit they are sending me out a replacement phone. It will be interesting to see if others encounter the same problem I had.

Ipad 3 randomly reboots after last update

Last night I updated the IOS to 6.1
now the Ipad randomly reboots
Even when it sits idle

Same issue with my iPad 3. Happened with 6.1.3 and still happens after upgrade to 7.
It's nearly full, perhaps that's contributing to the problem. Apple doesn't seem to know how to do memory management properly, nor QA, for that matter.
Also, they conveniently forego the troubleshooting tools present on other platforms. So the only way to get some insight is to bring it to the "Genius". Problems with that approach are: most often, the "Genius" isn't that bright a bulb and won't find (or won't be willing to spend time to search for) the root cause. Also, they now require an appointment, and that's a major PITA. I just don't have the time to deal with them and their ways to disguise shortage of qualified support resources under fancy terms.. My next portable device will be a slate!

Galaxy s4 rebooting after last update, and freezing up

I know this is posted already, but I too have the constant reboot issue and my s4 freezes constantly after the latest update from verizon. My phone was flawless before, now it is basically a paperweight. I cleared the system cache, but have not done the hard reset because many have and they say it didnt fix it whatsoever. I dont want to waste my time losing every customization I have set up for it not to fix the problem. I want verizon to come out and say, "We screwed up, we are trying to fix it now" But instead, they just tell their reps to tell us to do a hard reset. Thats the extent of their tech solving problems. Im sick of it. I didnt want the software, the phone was fine, now its garbage. They forced the update to their customers and should be held liable and responsible. I am currently paying for a service I really cant use through no fault of my own.

I wish I could get the answer for this bc mine is doing the same thing and an update of some sort is causing my galaxy to automatically play Google play music app as soon as I go online

Music not playing after IDT update last night (HP automated update) How can I roll the patch back?

I was notified of an HP update last night. After the update completed, Itunes/MS media player/You-Tube....applications are unable to play. Checked Installed programs and the only update listed was one for IDT drivers. How can I roll back to the previous version?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

I had the same issue, after reading several other posts with the same issue, I restored to before Oct 29th. Now my sound works just fine and my games that were also going hinky started to work as well.
It would be nice if HP fixed this issue before sending up another update. It is very annoying to have undo what they did so my computer works correctly.

Constant Reboot after software update

I just performed Software Update on my Leopard MacBook Pro and now it's in a constant reboot cycle. The grey boot up screen displays for 90 secs or so and then reboots and the cycle repeats. There were three programs for update but the only two I remember were iTunes & Front Row. How do I recover? Thanks.
Kevin

Just to add some more detail to the issue:
I've reset the NVRAM by holding down the Option/Control - PR at bootup and it seemed to work in that it then rebooted again. But nothing else but the continuing reboot cycle.
Next I tried to get into Safe mode by holding down the Shift key on bootup but this did not work. I inserted the Leopard DVD on bootup but it just spins.
Help!!!

S4 Constant Rebooting after update

Issue is affecting four of my devices. Two of the devices are having this issue with only factory apps and blank sd card, these device came directly from VZ with no accounts installed before and after update.
Restarting is random. Not linked to power save, sleep, calls, apps, or anything else I can test.
Devices are unusable. Please offer a roll back.
Devices have been factory reset, cache cleared, and operated in safe mode. The issue persist across all.

Read post 54 in this thread here... Re: Galaxy S4 randomly rebooting after VRUFNG6 update!
In a nutshell, re-enable any disabled apps you have on your phone and power off and back on. You can then disable the apps if you would like.
This is a temporary workaround. Verizon and Samsung are working on an update (supposedly) which will not be out for a while.

Slow reboot after 10.2.1.2977 update to Z10

Hello,
The first reboot after updating to software release 10.2.1.2977 (OS 10.2.1.3247) is taking a very long time (just over 22 hours now). The boot screen showed 97% before I went to sleep last night, and has been at 98% since I woke up ~6hrs ago..
I'm a fairly new BB owner, and this is the first OS update I've done besides the one after I first got my z10 - but I'm assuming this isn't normal. Has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone have any idea what's going on, or have suggestions on what I should do?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Pat

No, it most definitely does NOT take anyway near that long to reboot; you should expect to wait about one minute usually (except immediately after an OS reload in which case a few minutes is normal).
If it's not completely rebooted yet, remove the battery for a few seconds then put it back in. If it's completely rebooted, you can either leave it for now or you can reset your phone. To do this, press and hold the power button for about 15 seconds until BlackBerry appears on the screen. Don't release the power button until you see BlackBerry, ignoring anything that appears before that.
I hope that helps you.

Quicktime takes a lot of time to open after last Quicktime or iTunes update

I have actually no big problems, but its a bit annoying that Quicktime Player takes a lot of time (maybe twice as before) for opening a Quicktime file (mp3 or video file, it doesnt matter).. I think this situation arised after the last Quicktime update or the update before this I dont know for sure. I think the last Quicktime update.. I am using the latest Quicktime which is 7.6 and its Tiger (10.4.11). When Quicktime Player is not opened, and its getting opened for the first time by clicking for instance on a mp3 file, it takes more then 10 seconds to open up, when I click the file Quicktime Player bounces normally as always but then the spinning rainbow beachball is shown for more then 10 seconds before the player window appears. There is no delay when I go open a mp3 from another mp3. The delay occurs only when Quicktime Player is not opened yet (quit/closed) and you click on a Quicktime file then the delay happens during the opening of the player.. Sometimes it doesnt even open the file I clicked, but only Quicktime Player so I have to click the same file again..
What I tried is :
deleted all Quicktime player preference files.. Didnt help
removed all plugins from the Quicktime library.. Didnt help either
What could the problem possibly be? What can I do to recover it except for installing my system all over again? Will Apple fix this problem with the next update?
PS: I dont exclude that the latest iTunes update (8.1) can be a cause of this problem. Do you know if the iTunes update also changed/updated something regards Quicktime (Player)?

Why is an Archive & Install not an option for you? It does NOT delete your applications or your settings, and is NOT the same as an Erase & Install which does.
In my opinion it will be the only way to get your old G3 working properly again.
How to Archive & Install:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
This document explains how to correctly reinstall a prior version of Mac OS X in the event that other troubleshooting does not resolve an issue:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25404
BUT: Don't install older versions of Mac OS than what comes with your computer:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2186?viewlocale=en_US
Will Apple fix this problem with the next update?
For 99.9% of users there is no problem to fix.
But before doing your archive and install, when did you last perform a bit of maintenance?
Repairing permissions is important, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
This only takes a minute or two in Tiger, but much longer in Leopard.

By the way, you can ignore any messages about SUID or ACL file permissions, as explained here:

If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

9320 on Constant Reboot after Trying to Turn On Bluetooth

My BB Curve 9320 is constant reboot.
I've had the phone about 9 months. I went to turn on the Bluetooth for the first time today. As soon as I opened the menu tray and "checked" bluetooth the phone shut off. It started to reboot...it went through the whole cycle of loading and will reach the regular screen, but after 3 seconds will shut off and restart again. Continuously.
I have:
-taken the battery out (multiple times): continues
-followed the advice to start in Safemode, it will start in safemode, but shuts off after 3 seconds and reboots
-connected it to laptop via USB, but the computer will not pick up the device to be able to access it
I have actually gotten to the screen and in the 3 second window been able to click on the Networks tray again to see that Bluetooth is no longer "checked" on--doesn't matter, still only have the 3 secs before the reboot cycle.
Advice? Suggestions?
Solved!

Last night's TB update gets stuck trying to attach if CV is in the body.

I sent an email day before yesterday. I upgraded to the latest TB last night. I had a reply today and tried to reply to that. There was a well-known "possible attachment" keyword in the original body. Send got stuck trying to attach ("attaching ..."), whatever way I tried to say no attachment. Tried every permutation I could think of. The only way I finally got it to send was to create a dummy attachment and attach it. This is the first time I have come across this problem - previously pressing No worked fine.

Takes like 30 minutes depending in what size is your iPod ( 64GB, 32GB, 8GB. 16GB ). I think it freezed.
Try restarting your computer, and try to update again.

LG 22-inch monitor won't function properly after last Mac OS X Update

My new LG 22-inch monitor was working great until I received the last Mac OS X Update (10.4.9). I received this update after installing Tiger (better late than never...ha ha) and after I restarted my system, I saw multiples of the same files on my desktop, and when I would open a window, four duplicate windows would appear (this did not happen until after the update). The only thing that corrects the problem is to go into System Preferences => Displays and change the monitor resolution. But even after I Click to Lock Changes, I have to go in and do this every time I launch my system. I was so vexed that I hooked up the former monitor (Apple CRT, 17 inch) and now the same thing is happening to it! Sigh... I am no Mac Genuis, but I know someone out there can offer some advice! Thanks!

These warnings are accurate but according to Apple can safely be ignored. See Mac OS X 10.5: Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions messages that you can safely ignore. IOW, They are not normally problems.
I check the volume scheme but I don't have any partition
You do have partitions & a partition scheme. To check what the scheme is, click on +the drive itself+ in the list on the left in Disk Utility. It will probably be identified as "298,1 GB WDC WD3200AAJS-40VWA0 Media" or something very similar. If it contains the startup disk, it will be the first item in the list. It will have one or more named volumes indented under it, such as "Macintosh HD."
When you have clicked on the WDC drive instead of a volume name indented under it, you should see seven items of information about it at the bottom of Disk Utility's window, to the right of an icon representing the drive. The info is in two columns. The last item in the rightmost column, below the S.M.A.R.T. Status (which should say "Verified"), should be "*Partition Map Scheme :* " & be followed by the scheme type. It should be "GUID Partition Table."
If you don't see the seven info items after selecting the drive, it may indicate a problem that needs attention, but I suspect that you just haven't looked in the right place for the info....
As for the 'cannot install' message, make sure that you have downloaded the right update, that it is not the server update version for example. You may need to download it again, discarding the first download as somehow defective.

Sudden reboot after 5.0.0.975 update

Hello,
I am experiencing hard reboots after the recent software update. I will use my video camera for flashlight use, and upon exiting, the device hard reboots and i have to wait for it to restart. Additionally when the battery is more or less full, it would restart with a 4% battery life. Is anyone else experiencing this or have any thoughts on the subject? And i have considered downgrading, but want to see if there is a different solution.

I suggest trying to follow the clean application load process I suggested before.
Then once the application load is complete, test the device before you restore any data or install any applications.
This will let you know if it was your user data or an application causing this issue. Once you get your device working fine, try restoring your back up then test that. If this seems to be fine, then reinstall the applications you were using one by one and test.
Hope this helps.

Iphone 4 is rebooting after ios 7.1.1 update

Hi,
My Iphone 4 is rebooting and shutting down frequently after ios 7.1.1 update, daily not able to receive calls as it is in shutdown mode and trying to reboot also taking more time, Can some one suggest me the best solution for this problem???

Hi Sekhar_Nutakki,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I recommend these steps if your iPhone is shutting down or restarting unexpectedly:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Best Regards,
Jeremy

Constant reboot after IOS4 upgrade Solved!

I too was having the dreaded error 29 code and stuck in recovery mode along with the 5 minute constant reboot since upgrading to IOS4 two days ago. I had to use Blackra1n to get it out of recovery. Blackra1n will NOT jailbreak IOS4 but will fix the stuck recovery mode problem. I also had previously replaced the battery with a higher capacity mAh. the upgrade to v3.1.3 went perfect. Only when I upgraded to IOS4 did things change. It would constantly reboot and the battery was slowly draining and would not recharge. I poured through countless forum posts and tried most all of them. Then this evening I found a post somewhere in this forum about possibly the battery was causing the problem. So I got out my tools and put the original battery back in and booted up. It got to the front screen and immediately a bunch of old calendar events started popping up which was different than before. I cleared them all and I have now had my iphone on steady for over an hour and not one reboot. Battery is also now recharging off my laptop.
So long story short, if you've replaced your battery at some point, put it back in or hopefully an OEM with same APN: 616-0434 (#for my iPhone). Everything is now working in IOS4!
Good battery replacement guide here: http://www.rapidrepair.com/guides/iphone-3g-s-repair/iphone-3g-s-dissasembly-rep air-guide.html
