Hello,
On my generic htc desire, I'm facing reboots with Robo defense (no issue with any other game). When I start to play for a while, the phone completely reboots.
The dev asked me if I have more context to give but I don't really. Is there any log/debug that I can turn on and access?
Anyone else facing the same problem?
the game works fine for me.....
works fine for me too, have you tried removing it and reinstalling?
Ive had the same reboots in that game. I noticed that the phone was smoking hot as well. Maybe its related?

Anybody experiencing this? It's mostly games, they just quit on their own as if i'm pressing the home button, then when i start them back up, they start up normally but not where i last was.
Also no force close error.
I want to know if it is just me, then i'll do a factory reset, but just want to double check before i go through all that.
So i did a factory reset and it fixed it for a day or two but now back to the same thing
games just quit on their own. Some games you can play for a while till it happens, some almost instantly.
The 2 most problematic games are
Airport Mania
Gun Bros.
If anyone is running streakdroid 1.9.0 and plays those games and they work fine, can you please post here.
Thank you.
Hi guys,
I've had a super weird issue with my phone for the past few months (although I don't remember exactly when the issue started happening). Basically, my phone randomly reboots when there is a chathead/bubble/etc on the screen. This problem happens when I use Facebook Messenger chatheads, bubbles by LinkBubble, and chatheads by YAATA. I don't think it's a program-specific issue, nor does my phone reboot every time I use those apps. It's very inconsistent and hard to predict.
Have any of you encountered this problem? Any ideas for what is causing it and/or how to fix it? It's really annoying to have my phone randomly reboot itself multiple times each day. I know I could just uninstall the three apps that seem to trigger the reboots, but I really like those apps and want to find a way to keep them around.
Have you over clocked at all?

No. The problems initially started when I was on stock, unrooted. I'm now on CM12.1 and rooted, but the random reboots are still happening.
This smartphone is awesome, it barely overheats and runs perfectly smooth most of the time. Yesterday I finally managed to get it to overheat by playing a game while charging it (I played Badland and I was really into the game, so I plugged my device in, because I wanted to finish the last level). So it didn't lag or anything but it became a bit hot and the back/home/task manager buttons stopped working, no matter how many times I touch them. I restarted the device and they started working again, but then stopped again. When the phone cooled off, they started working normally like nothing was wrong with them.
My concern is - can this become an issue in the future (like someday the buttons will stop functioning permanently), should I worry about this or should I just try not to overheat my device (like not using it when it's charging for games). Has anyone else ever had an issue like this? Thank you!
Hi all,
I've gotten this weird issue where my touch screen would freeze momentarily and randomly whenever I play some games (i.e. Scribblenauts Unlimited, NFS No Limits, GTASA, and Dead Trigger 2). While unlocking and waking up the phone would fix this issue immediately, I find these freezes to be extremely annoying. Interestingly, Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp seems to be free from this issue. In addition, I've never experienced it outside of games.
Initially, I did suspect heat to be behind it, but then I found out that those freezes also happen whenever I just boot up those games (and therefore the phone is yet to heat up). Anyone has any idea on what's going on here? I really hope it's not some kind of funky HW defect.
OK, here's an update: I'm quite positive that this is a software issue. Just had the freeze again but I could access notification shade. The shade worked and I tried to open up setting menu, and it worked. Now, the touchscreen worked flawlessly in setting and the subsequent home menu... and when I went back to the game, it froze again.
And I think this one's also relevant: a user over at reddit said that their screen would also freeze whenever they touch the phone's back while playing. Well, I happen to not touch the PH-1's back whenever I'm playing Pocket Camp thanks to its portrait orientation...

Hi,
I sent an Essential Phone to my mom oversea, and her phone has been having this issue where when she uses the the camera app, phone heats up, freezes, and eventually shuts down. It has the latest version installed (OPM1.180104.166). Has anyone else experienced this issue? If you know a fix, please share.
Thank you

It's weird. I just came from my vacation, which i used the essential to take photos and gps. And never afront any of this issues.. never heat up or freeze.
I'm on the same May update and used my camera extensively the last two days w/o any issues or overheats.
What's the signal like where she's using the phone? I'm wondering if the issue might be compounded by a weak signal area, especially if you're using an app that continuously backs up your photos to the cloud.
She should factory reset the phone and choose the fresh start option when setting up the phone again to verify that there isn't a software problem.
There are hardware problems with some Essential Phones that causes them to overheat and become unstable which leads to the phone freezing, rebooting or shutting down. The issue seems to be rare but it has been reported by some owners.
If the factory reset doesn't fix the issue it's almost certainly a hardware issue.
