Root Polling problem with triumph would running a rom fix it??

So my mother has a stock triumph and every once in a while after she pulls it off the charger she will end up with a black screen and it will just say Polling..and some other stuff. I dont know if its a issue that roming will fix but im willing to give it a shot. If so can you guys recommend a reliable simple to use rom that doesn't have a billion settings to confuse her lol??
 
That's just the phone going into download mode, although it's strange that it happens when you remove it from the charger. If she's currently happy with the way that the phone is running I wouldn't worry about it, just do a quick battery pull and your good to go. If you want to go further just look into the all things root guide.

Not a huuugeee ordeal if it was me but it sucks for her. Considering her medical conditions and not having a working phone kinda bothers me. God forbid she has a diabetic episode and needs to use the phone but wait you have to pull the battery first you know.

I would guess she's turning off the phone to charge it. Then when she's turning it back on she's holding the phone with a death grip (vol down + power)

I would have to agree with you..most likely shes unintentionally doing this. I let her know the keys you need to get into this mode and so far so good :D

Tell her she doesn't need to power off the phone while charging... she'll miss calls that way! That would solve the issue quickly :)

I thought of that too, then I thought she might be running the phone dead before charging it. I know people who think that you should kill a Li-Ion battery before charging it.
