| Issue 127: | Phone reboots after turning on WiFi hotspot and turning WiFi on again. | |

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Make sure the hotspot/tethering is off. 2. Settings >> Wireless & Networks >> More... >> Tethering & portable hotspot >> Enable "Portable Wi-Fi hotspot". 3. Turn WiFi on again (I did it through the notification bar). 4. Notice that the tethering has stopped, the WiFi is not turned on and the phone reboots a few moments after that. 5. After the reboot, WiFi is working properly again. What kernel are you running? Stock It would really help if you could provide a logcat when the problem occurs. * Grab aLogcat: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jtb.alogcat&hl=en * Reproduce the problem * Open aLogcat and save the logcat * Attach it here Please provide any additional information below. This happened three times, so I have attached tree logcats, one for each reboot. I'm not really sure if they overlap or not..

confirmed, it rebooted. I am checking the logcat to see if there is something that can help you.

Similar scenario: (always re-creatable): 1. turn on tethering 2. turn off tethering 3. go in the settings > more > mobile networks > uncheck(disable) 'Data enabled' 4. check(enable) 'Data enabled' again. phone reboots in around 2-3 seconds. (if it doesn't reboot, try another cycle of above steps, which should reboot for sure) (LG P500) I'm attaching a logcat before reboot, at step 3, and one after the reboot.
