I have similar issue. I have (2) versions of BBB (A5A and A5C). They both randomly reboot themselves while I am running TI prebuilt BBB android image (from a couple hours to ten to fifteen hours). When I plug in the USB (DC is still powered) for logging with logcat, the reboot issue seems to disappear.
I don't have problem with BBB Angstrom image (based on 3.8 kernel). I don't have problem with Andrew Henderson's android image (based on 3.8 kernel) either. Another issue is that when I run TI BBB android image, the clock randomly jumps forward 2^17 seconds. This happens on both of my BBB boards. The problem goes away when I run Angstrom or Andrew's android. I suspect it has something to do with the processor, DDR3 (BBB: AM3359 1GHz + 512MB DDR3), the configuration, or apply workaround of errata. We have an AM335x EVM kit (AM3359 720MHz + 256MB DDR2). I also loaded TI prebuilt android image. I have run it for several months. It is rock solid. I never had problem with it. Here are the links to my other posts in regarding to this issue. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!category-topic/beagleboard/advanced/5qSJ4dQdar4 http://e2e.ti.com/support/embedded/android/f/509/t/297726.aspx On Thursday, October 31, 2013 6:32:16 PM UTC-4, Illutian Kade wrote: > > And now the board won't power on from the Debug Port, but will form the DC > jack.
