may be you should disable watchdog

Reflashed EMMC + rootfs... Still randomly reboots :/ Not sure I can even reach a point where I can disable watchdog

Then it's fried, most probably from overclocking. You can't fix a fried CPU in software.

Just in case: Have you tried powering it off and, removing any usb cable and also removing the battery? Also try removing the microSD card and the SIM card and booting without them.

Kernel flashes are tracked in /dev/mtd1, don't try to clear them, you'll end up with a brick ;)
They could easily check the CPU is fried and confirm that through the kernel flashes.

Blah :X Well better try and see what happens than not try at all :S

Btw Is it possible that its a gpu failure though? I saw like screen tearing and artifacts a few times :s CPU was running at 950mhz on ideal config and was rarely pushed that hard really :/

edit:
Tried starting the phone in R&D mode but it still rebooted :(
edit2:
Now before rebooting I saw an " Internal error ....." but couldnt read it due to another reboot

Fried. You've read the warnings - also about warranty void - when you started overclocking?

I did, but I am in no way saying its anyone else's fault but my own. I don't see what your post is aiming at.

dude, it is very rare cpu is fried. what is more likely is that the ram is having errors. if so just run a ram-checker program. also do u remember the 80:20 rule? 80% of the work is done in 20% when the rest of the 20% is done in 80%. It's called pareto! Google it!!
