Re: N900 Unexpected reboots
 
Make sense, if the processor is getting stuck in some kind of loop, it won't be able to pet the watchdog. Can you run top in the background dumping to a file or something equivalent to try and capture what process is hijacking the cpu before it reboots?

i can write a script and put it to crontab, should i take processes from ps aux?

I think vmstat will be more usable.

Open a shell and type:

vmstat -m 10 > <path_where_to_place_text_file>/<file_name>.txt

leave the shell opened, this will write process statistics every 10 seconds.

I'll do the same.

Interesting that some of you are seeing "hildon desktop manager" come up since I've seen this app give problems on my 800 at times causing spontaneous desktop crashes. Perhaps this is an old bug that made it up to the new Maemo.

Well, situation seems to get better... I set default connection settings and disabled Mail For Exchange and the phone has stopped rebooting. Now it seems it works. I'll test it further and report

I thought there was a problem with 3 sim cards?

Connection Settings:

- Internet automatically connect to GSM
- Search interval never.
- 3 email accounts (pop/imap) set to retrieve manually.

Everything else is untouched.

Never had a reboot.
