Spontaneous restarts, why?
Hi All,
Today I saw my Toon 1 spontaneously restarting several times. I have no clue why this is happening and how to find out what is wrong. Any hints?
I'm running the latest firmware (5.13.12) and all toonstore apps are updated to their latest versions..
Thanks in advance.

Re: Spontaneous restarts, why?
usually Toon reboots when it runs out of memory (RAM).
Removing custom apps helps or disabling native functionality via the TSC tab in the menu

Re: Spontaneous restarts, why?
I already had most native functionality disabled (except zon op toon
) and only a few toonstore apps installed. The problem magically disappeared again, let's hope it stays like that...

Re: Spontaneous restarts, why?
I saw the same thing after upgrading to 5.13.9 but I also didn't remove the native Toon apps so that might be it.
I will upgrade to 5.13.12 now and remove those apps.

Re: Spontaneous restarts, why?
I have also this issue. This evening he is restarting continously .
When I want to go in the menu it is working for 3 seconds and return to the main screen again.
After a few minutes Toon is freezing and I have to wait for a restart...
This afternoon it was working perfectly. I did nothing in between and now he is not working anymore...
Help?

Re: Spontaneous restarts, why?
Just updated to latest version, update was succesfull but Toon is still restarting complete time.
Also tried to remove some custom apps.. So I don't think it is the RAM memory..

Re: Spontaneous restarts, why?
Now I deleted almost all custom apps and it is working again...
Now piece by piece reinstall.

Hello,
I use a Toon 1 with firmware 5.15.6 and I notice that the Toon restarts spontaneously and sometimes it gets stuck when I click on an app for example TSC menu.
I used the same apps as on the other firmwares.

waste calendar

Is there a log file somewhere so that I can see what the issue is and why the toon is acting so weird now with the latest firmware?
Regards,
Michel

Re: Spontaneous restarts, why?
This is most probably a memory issue. 4 custom apps is on the limit for a toon1. Please run update-rooted.sh with option -f as I have recently (13 days ago) added some memory tuning options for the toon1. Reboot afterwards.michel30 wrote:Hello,

Re: Spontaneous restarts, why?
I have the same problem, since 5.15.6 it reboot's randomly 2/3 times a day for no reason.
I have not installed any extra apps and only use it for power monitoring and never had such issue before,
can I downgrade the Toon to 5.13.12?

Re: Spontaneous restarts, why?
No that is not possible. But try another 'update-rooted.sh -f'. I recently add some memory tweaking options for the toon1. I think that helps a lot.

Great I'll try that right away!TheHogNL wrote:No that is not possible. But try another 'update-rooted.sh -f'. I recently add some memory tweaking options for the toon1. I think that helps a lot.

I now run './update_rooted -f' and hopefully that fixes my problem. I also posted the 'top' result after running this, maybe somebody can check if this is 'normal' now...

Re: Spontaneous restarts, why?
You do need to restart the toon after this -f option to use the memory tuning options.mogwai wrote: Result of top after running 'update_rooted.sh -f'' (sorted by memory usage):

Re: Spontaneous restarts, why?
Forgot to mention in my post, but I did issue a 'reboot' afterwards, so the 'top' results are after the reboot had finished.TheHogNL wrote:You do need to restart the toon after this -f option to use the memory tuning options.mogwai wrote: Result of top after running 'update_rooted.sh -f'' (sorted by memory usage):
