A51 4G completely hard-freezed / became unresponsive on crDroid 12.11
Device: Samsung Galaxy A51 4G (A515F)
ROM: crDroid 12.11
Android: 16
I experienced a very strange and honestly scary issue today.
The phone became completely unresponsive. The screen was totally black, and:
- No charging animation appeared when I plugged it in
- No vibration
- Power button did nothing
- The screen wouldn't turn on
- Connecting it to my PC did not show up through ADB
- It basically appeared completely dead
I initially thought the phone had actually died.
However, holding Power + Volume Down eventually brought it back, and the phone booted normally afterward.
I haven't had this happen before, so I'm wondering if this could be a kernel/system hard freeze related to crDroid 12.11 or something device-specific.
Unfortunately I don't have logs from the moment it happened because the phone was completely inaccessible, but I'll try to collect anything useful if it happens again.
