After upgrading to 3.16 my PPC keeps rebooting automatically

What did I do? After the phone settles down from booting like 30-90 seconds later it reboots......over and over again. Anyone else have anything like this happen to them?

you need to update the OS, you can't just update radio only

Yeah i upgraded mine to DCD and it's doing it to me too!

I had 3.16 on mine, but wanted WM6.1, had to use the unlocker then i upgraded to DCD...forgot about radio and did that afterwards...still does it. I'm gonna try to do a hard reset then do it one by one hopefully it will work?!

Give us some more information on what you did to your phone...did you use an unlocker? Did you follow the outline made for upgrading?

What DCD ROM did you use?

The newest one he has posted up. You need to do it in order. Flash the boot loader, then the ROM, then the radio

i upgraded and mine is doing this. it stays gpoing gine as long as i have it plugged into the usb (dunno if it does the same with the cradle).
a few seconds after i unplug it it reboots.
here is what i did.
1)i unlocked my phone
2) I ran ruu with the rom
3) I did a hard reset.

I had alreadu updated my phone with the gps rom if that makes any difference
how can i fix this?

It looks like you have covered most of the basics like making sure you have the 2.40 boot loader, 3.x radio, 3.x ROM and a hard reset.

Try installing one of the ROMs no2chem or DCD has, hard reset and don't install anything extra and see if the issue still exists. If not, then install apps one by one and see which one is causing the issue.

This fixed the rebooting problem for me too.

I second that, after updating my unlocker to the 2.40 my phone stopped rebooting. I have 3.27 radio as well, not sure it that came with the No2Chems or not, but I swear i had 3.18 or soething before???
