Schedule reboot - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Hi, anyone know how I can set my phone to reboot it's self at a scheduled time? I'm running Cyanogenmod 4.2.2 on my vodafone uk magic, and I think it keeps it running smoother if it reboots regularly. So instead of rebooting every morning I figured it would be good to have a way to set it to reboot itself, say at 4am or something.
Any ideas?

Phone restarting randomly

Every once in awhile, I will look over and notice the Roger logo popped back up on my phone which means its restarting. No idea how much this does in a day but I have caught it a couple times in the past few days. Anyone have this problem? An excuse to get a phone replaced?
yup..happens to me on average around 3 times a week.
i launch an app..the screen goes blank..suddenly i notice the phone has restarted.
maybe low on RAM or too high temperature
Me phone has only done this once to me after I cleaned too many built in apps from my phone.
Other than that my phone has never rebooted.
Swyped from my rooted X10i using XDA.
My phone had restarting problem when i used aHome home launcher. After unistalling it, never happened again
Weird. My phone has never done it while i am using it. Its always done it when sitting by itself on a table, not running anything.
If you guys read the SE support site, you'll know that it has to do with the phone running out of memory because of too many apps running at the same time.
I know that there is a group here who does not believe in Advance Task Killer app, but I haven't had this issue after starting using this app. And, I'll repeat again, it helps me conserve the battery, not matter whoever who keeps saying that it is useless for that purpose.

It reboots even if you have a lot of memory free. This morning it rebooted after 30 min from the first boot and I didn't use it.
Ciao Angelo
noticed this happening quite a bit over last 2-3 days, not sure if its been caused by program update, possibly adw home.
today has been the worst, disconnecting and reconnecting almost every minute or so.
gonna try switching 3g off see if that helps. really annoying, makes browsing a PITA.

Mine restarted itself about 20 minutes ago haha.
Is this a problem for rooted phones mostly?

I personally found that it happen when I connected to Wifi.
That's for myself.
X10 Restarting
you showld try to turn off the WCDMA mode, after turning only GSM mode it never restarted again, and if i turn it on goes back to restarting every once in a wille, especialy when connected to my car's bluetooth.
try it and give feed back.
Started happening to me after I stopped using advanced task killer... maybe it happens when it runs out of ram?
Don't your phones get extremely laggy without ATK? I usually don't exit apps when I'm done with them, I just press the home button, and open up more apps, so I can't go without it...
As far as I can recall, my phone's never restarted on me...
In the last couple of days it is happening to me too.
I stop using the phone for some time, and then it just restarts itself.
i just bought an x10 yerstday and ever since the recent update it has continuously rebooted on its own when browsing the net and playing music.
This really bugged me since i didnt know whether it was a faulty set or the new update was the problem. after going through various threads on various forums i realised the problem is very common.(unrooted before and fully factory unlocked)
So here is my Solution. it has not restarted yet after doing the following
1. Rooting and updating to latest firmware R2BA026
2. Installing Auto memory manager
> Setting it as follows
FA... 2MB
VA... 2MB
SS... 4MB
HA... 5MB
CP... 6MB
EA... 6MB
3. Installing Advanced Task Killer (Using it as normally as u could do)
> Untick Superuser permission
> Untick Auto Memory Manager
Dont let the memory fall below 15mb always check Auto Memory Manager and then use ATK.
Please tell me if this worked for you. it worked for me
I solved my reboot problem with Reset to factory defaults.

Tried this, also tried resetting using seus and still it continues, think my phone has a fault now, I'm now running latest o2 uk fw (26).
If I'm on 3g it will cycle being connected and disconnected almost constantly, makes using net impossible, if I set it to use gsm only everything is fine. Could be o2 screwing with 3g where I live but I don't think so some how, not for this length of time!
Any one have any ideas? Failing that its gonna have to be sent away :-(

Ok so I wasnt a believer in all this r/s crap, but I alsmost shat my pants last night when my phone r/s on me during a call. Now at that time its wasnt on wifi but it r/s on me...i dialed again and after a few mins it r/s again. This is pissing me off. Any solutions.???
I guess if it continues then imma jump ona new phone.

I had two total freezes today

I had my Surround lock up twice today requiring me to remove the battery. Once while searching in the marketplace and another when I was typing in a text message. Anyone else have any freezes yet?
I'm only on day 2 with mine, but so far no freezes here.
i've had mine since nov 8th and i haven't had any freezes yet. has it done anything else?
I had a couple freezes 2 days after buying it requiring me to pull the battery once, but other than that, its been running every day since then without a reboot just fine.
I did install several applications from the marketplace which did not work until i booted the phone so perhaps that had something to do with it. Made me wish for a stylus and a reset switch though! Some things never change...
Mine just froze one time after downloading a program and I think it had to do with low signal strength so the download hung then the phone was frozen. Other than that smooth as can be.

I've had the Market freeze a few times on me too, but that's it so far...and I did pull the battery
Ive got a new one for you. The microphone on mine stopped working.... I was in the middle of a call and I could hear "hello...hello..." but he couldn't hear me. I did a power cycle and still no go. So I took the battery out and restarted it and it decided to work again. Now the battery was pretty low, but not dead you think that the noise cancelation crap in the phone could stop working with a low battery?? That was a new one for me
Constant Freezes and Reboots
Mine began locking up after I installed about 20 apps in one day. Then it would randomly reboot itself. Then it got bad, It would reset to default: no apps installed, no accounts, no contacts. But the wierd thing is, randomly it would come back with all my settings. I contacted HTC throug email and got a reply within 20 minutes. Told me to do Hard Reset because OS got corrupt somehow. Hold Volume Up & DOWN while powering ON. Options come up on screen to Hard Reset. I have since reinstalled every app as before and it works flawless now. Loving my Surround!!
I had my first reboot today, I was typing in a text message and it hung on the letter "I" then when dark after 30 seconds or so. It immediately botted back up and has been fine ever since. Strange...

phone started randomly rebooting again

I'm not exactly sure what happened, but when I first rooted, installed safestrap, and then Jelly Beans 106 on my Note 3, my phone would start up fine but then restart constantly. I would get my home screen, then immediately get notifications that various apps had crashed, and then the phone would reboot, but not fully though, it wouldn't go directly to the Jelly Beans boot animation, not through the full boot from the beginning with the samsung logo. From start up to reboot varies, but usually whatever app i was using would crash within a minute, and my phone would crash/lockup/reboot maybe 30 seconds to a minute later. It did not matter what app i as using or what I was doing. Actually I just noticed it somehow lost all my email settings, none of the accounts are there anymore.
If I booted into the stock rom from safe strap it seemed stable, but never with Jelly Bean. I had tried clearing the caches, wiping the phone, and a bunch of other fixes and nothing worked. In a last ditch effort I tried the process again, from the very beginning, I retooted my phone, reinstalled everything, and it worked, until three days ago when it started rebooting again. I had about three months of my phone being perfect, and then it just started rebooting randomly on it's own. The only thing that I can think that I did was decline some usage rights for the my magazine samsung app, that was the last thing I did before my phone went crazy.
I can't even get the stock rom to be stable anymore, it will do the same thing, whats' going on? I don't get why my phone was so stable, and then it went all haywire again. anybody have any idea of what I can do?

Phone reboots randomly, and with certain apps.

I've used 2 different ROMS, AOSP extended and Pure Nexus. I've tried using custom kernels and with the default one that comes with the ROM. I've tried going into safe mode. But my phone still randomly reboots. I found that it restarts much more often when I open the Google Maps App, and sometimes camera app too.
Unlike other people, the phone can stay on for a long time if I don't touch it and just keep it in my pocket; it doesn't reboot.
Is it a software or hardware problem? Is it because I am trying to use Android 7 on it?
My phone rebooted during two consecutive nights, a few days ago. It happened between 6 and 7 in the morning, while the phone was lying on my desk, in flight mode. I always put my phone (and previous phones) in flight mode when I go to sleep. Battery usage showed how long ago the reboot took place. The first time my battery was drained from 50% to 20%, second time it didn't (stayed around 80%). I made a TWRP backup, and planned to restore a backup from a few weeks back. Due to lack of time I didn't do that. The reboots didn't happen after that.
The first reboot was after I installed GlassWIre in the afternoon. I uninstalled it after the first reboot. So far I have no idea what caused the reboots.
My phone is on stock 6.1 with january 2017 security patches, and is rooted.
This is a weird one.
No problems until I switched my SIM out (went to a different carrier) and since then any app that tried to access the GPS causes a reboot.
Read that I should change my APN type to "default,mms" so I did so and rebooted, have not had any issue since.

Daily random reboot

I have noticed almost every single night for the previous two weeks my Essential phone restarts itself. The only way I can tell this is when checking my phone in the morning the pin lock comes on and says pin must be entered after restarting. This happened with the November security update and still happening after downloading the December security update. Is anyone else noticing this?
From the title I thought you found randomly placed red boots every day just walking around..
Mine has done that a few times but it's not every night. I'm running the oreo beta and have automatic updates enabled so I assumed it was due to that.
Happening to me too and it's causing my alarm to not go off in the morning (using Sleep as Android). Been late to work twice now this week because of it. Super annoying, probably going to reach out to Essential support for it.
Edit: Found this: https://www.reddit.com/r/essential/comments/7hqf8s/ph1_restarts_every_night_when_charging/
And that seems to be the case on my phone - it's not restarting overnight but it is going into doze and requiring the additional security when waking. This, unfortunately, is also suspending Sleep As Android. So I've tried excluding it from the battery optimizations to see if this will help.

Well I guess that's good to know. The aggravating thing being that it resets the Smart Lock when doing this. So now " I " have to restart my phone every morning so I can reset the Smart Lock so my phone stays unlocked while connected to my Android.

Coming back to this, because I'm still having issues. Sleep As Android gets suspended overnight. It initially was happening randomly, now it seems to happen every night.
I still believe the phone may be crashing, just not completely rebooting. I noticed that a reddit app I use (Relay) was using much more CPU recently and making the phone warm, draining the battery... while previous use didn't really do this. So I went to clear the cache for the app from system settings.
The phone froze... touchscreen became unresponsive. I gave it 15-20 seconds and it was still stuck so I tried to hold the power button in an attempt to find which button combination would force a reset. During this time, the phone decided to respond again and took all of the input I had tried at once - the power menu came up and it returned to the lock screen.
At the bottom of the lock screen - "Unlock the phone to use all features and data" just as it shows up every morning after "deep doze"
But the phone's uptime didn't restart. 131 hours and counting now.
So maybe this is a warranty-able issue after all.
