HTC Incredible 2 Keeps Rebooting

I've had my DInc reboot spontaneously twice. The last time it happened, I was downloading 3 or 4 updates to apps simultaneously.

This crashing and rebooting problem is somwhat common to the HTC Droid Incredible 2 from what I've read.  Mine crashes 5 or more times a day, even after a hard reset was done at the Verizon store.  It happens when the battery overheats after 10 minutes of Internet/app use; or when I go to a web page with alot of photos or content; or sometimes while I'm charging it.  Occasionally it crashes and reboots when I take a photo or video.  I'm using Task Killer and kill apps after I use them. ... There's also a "reboot loop" problem - after a crash it keeps rebooting and that's only cured by removing the battery.  The Verizon tech told me that the battery shouldn't overheat, and that if I encoutner a web page with too much data it should merely force close (but not crash and reboot).  I just wanted to pass this on for those who are told "this is the first time we've heard of this."

Well I got my replacement Incredible Thursday. So far no problems. I have been killing apps everytime I'm about to use the phone for anything other then a phone call. Ben at the Verizon store advice me to download one app at a time and work with it for a day to see if the battery starts to heat up. I told him about "Battery Time Lite" app it gives me info about the level of my battery and the time on it if I do certain things like talk time, web time, etc. It also tells me the temp. of the battery. Which at one time reached 111 degrees. He said he never heard of an app telling you the temp of the battery. That's when he said to download one app at a time, and to read commnets before downloading. Do any of you who have this problem, using "Battery Time Lite"?

Rec'd new phone, reboot problem continued. I have no apps installed, have only synced emails, facebook, twitter, etc. Verizon can't help, they offered to replace phone with another or any phone of my choice. Frustrated because i like the phone. Have looked at Droid X and Droid 2, not for me. So i called HTC to see if they were aware. Tech said she heard of it only once or twice and attributed it to frequency of synchs, as she said, too much going on at once. I do have 3 emails, facebook, twitter. So I made some adjustments. I have been up for 10:01:45. Usually I would reboot at least 4 or 5 times a day. Will continue to monitor.

I got my Dinc in June and never once regretted choosing it over the iPhone until now. Got my 2.2 update that everyone has been hyping up and ever since it installed I've been in Reboot Hell. The only time the cycle stopped is when I went into Verizon (of course). I went 3 different times today and they finally broke down to order a new one. They of course claimed they never heard of this problem, the same crap it sounds like most of you all were told as well. I can pull the battery and let it sit for 30-45 minutes and the minute I put the battery back in, same thing all day. I am self employed and my cell is my business line which now looks like it will be shut down for 2 days until I get my new phone. What a crock. None of my iPhone friends were ever able to make me look stupid for choosing the Dinc,,,,,,,until now.

I have had the same problem with continuous rebooting.
I just got the Froyo update this morning, but this problem happened to me once before the update as well.  My phone decides to turn off and restart, it will restart till it gets to about the white HTC screen, sometimes a little past that, then will turn off and restart and repeat the process until I take out he battery.  The first time this happened I left the battery out for about an hour and it started to work normally, till it did it again to me about 45 minutes ago.  Both times I have not been using the phone, but have had it in my pocket and I felt it vibrate telling me it was restarting.  I was thinking it might be the phone over heating because both times it has happened have been during 90+ degree weather, and I have a rubber case on the phone.  It is not encouraging to read all of these problems though.

Got my new(refurbished) Dinc today, Ive had it for about 4 hours and I have put it thru some paces. got the battery to heat up as much as my last phone did and so far so good, not one power cycle. time will tell I guess. I also haven't done the update yet. Im a lil skeptical to do this, maybe in a week or so after Im sure that the phone is operating properly.

My daughter and I both have dincs. Mine is rooted (2.2) and hers is not.  We both have many apps, but she rarely updates / syncs hers.  This week, hers started rebooting constantly, and I noticed this happened as soon as the auto updates started, and it appears to be overloading on updates, causing the reboot.  Here's how I fixed it:
- activated airplane mode before auto updates started (this stops the auto update from running)
- activated wireless
- manually updated one app at a time until all necessary updates were completed

It hasn't rebooted since.  The key (at least in her case) is to update apps more frequently, rather than waiting until 20 or so apps need to be updated.  This appears to be an issue with Android, not specific to the dinc, and is likely to happen on other devices, too.  Google needs to find a way to limit updates / prevent updates from overloading the phone.
