Nexus 4 restarting at random times since 4.3.? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Nexus 4 does get hot (who's doesn't) and when it does, it likes to restart. This hasn't always been the case, only since the 4.3 update. It happens on Snapchat, Instagram, Google+, XDA and others. Any ideas why? Anybody else?

Hi,
Mine is getting hot, but never rebooted.
using instagram, google+, xda, facebook all this and all good.

The reboots occur to my device but the device doesn't get hot, probably related to the JSS15 deadlocks?

So why you don't came back on stable 4.2.2?

Mine does this at random times (recording video, typing a text). Happens every 2-3 days since I upgraded. Going to wipe it and put 4.2.2 back again.

Mine is running great doesn't seem to hut down anymore. 4.2.2 always did while charging and Wi-Fi.. Not anymore

Mine only reboots on Skype video calling, but that has been confirmed on Skype forums to be a known bug with 4.3, also it doesn't seem related to heat.

YouTube app Sign-In

AW: YouTube app Sign-In
I had to login a few times only today, and I have been running 4.2.2 for a week already, and there were no youtube app updates recently. So it's just a coincidence and will hopefully stop soon.
Did anybody find a fix for this?
I've still got this issue and its getting to be quite annoying now
I find it sporadic, can go days not needing to login then have to do it twice in a day, very random
Least its easy to login!

Re: YouTube app Sign-In.
It can't be just on 4.2.2 because it happens on my S3 too, which is still on 4.1.
Maybe an issue at the server end then, thanks for letting us know

[Q] apps don't run in the background

I don't seem to be getting notifications from apps except a few like Gmail, cloud SMS & play store. I don't get from fb, fb chat, XDA etc. It seems like they don't really run in the background. It especially clear in games that they shut down as I leave them.
Don't have any of these problems on my Galaxy Nexus 4.2.2.

Are you enabling notifications within those particular apps? And do you leave games with the home or back button?
Many games will have to do some reloading if you switch away from them.

They all have notifications activated and I always use the home button. Sometimes I actually do get the notifications but it's like half an hour later then my gnex where it's instantly.

Is this when the screen is off? If so, do you have WiFi set to never sleep when screen is off?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD
Same here, my Nexus 7 almost NEVER gives me Notifications, and if it does its as you say like 30mins/1hour late, so by that time I've already seen what its notifying me of.
Very annoying !!
WiFi is one when screen is off.
Can't reproduce the problem on my gnex, it's just weird...

Facebook News Feed Issues?

Been having some strange issues lately with Facebook on my N4. Over wifi it operates like normal, refreshing my feed quickly and normally. But over Straight Talk T-Mobile it refuses to update 95% of the time despite 4 bars of HSPA+ For comparison, Instragram updates immediately and numerous Speedtests show my normal 5-15mb/s.
Tried wiping the cache and uninstalling to no avail. Anyone having issues? This just started about a week ago.
Running latest PA and latest Franco nightly.

What radio? Probably unrelated but I had similar facebook issues on the .33 radio over LTE. Downgraded to .27 radio and it fixed my loading issues.

Any chance you've exceeded your Data Cap for StraightTalk, from what I've seen straighttalk isn't exactly the most reliable for data usage.

By the way when you say update, are you talking bout with the screen off, or when you're actually in the app forcing it to update?
For me it's when I'm in the app trying to update it and I know im not outta data so I'm thinking it's the app

Course at the same time I never considered Facebook to be all that reliable on the mobile side, so if all the other apps are working fine and it's just facebook that's crapping out it seems to re-enforce my feeling about their app. (I mean it even crashes on iOS every so often).
T-Mobile Straight Talk really doesn't have a data limit. Or I've never gotten close to it. As I said Facebook is the only app that does this. And even then 1 time out of 10 it'll update like normal.
I'm thinking this is some bug with the latest Facebook update. If anyone has any other thoughts for fixes let me know!

Facebook app is weird
+1 on this issue. Actually +2, since my wife has the same problem.

Same here with me and my wife. The only way I can get fb to load is to close all running apps via the multitask button then reopen and it goes.

Same issue here on the Facebook app, I've tried opening and closing it a few times and eventually it will refresh.
I believe it's definitely something on straight talks end because if you try to request the desktop site of facebook in chrome, it doesn't load either. I also am having this same issue.
Just a follow up, fixed using common sense. (shocking really)
Downgrading to 3.2 works like a charm. Can't post a link but look for the V3.2 APK on Android Drawer.

Randomly crashing after 4.3 update!

My Nexus 4 just started randomly started crashing after the 4.3 update ... Anyone having the same issue?? Please help...
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Hmm. the Nexus 4 I'm using doesn't have that issue. Sounds like you have an app incompatibility with Android 4.3. I would suggest combing your apps, or doing a factory reset.

It crashed while using Skype and Gallery.
Chrome randomly crashed on a sandboxed_process:0 with crash type Native Crash.

In three days I've had the phone reboot three times, all within the first hour after unplugging it. Twice it rebooted while I wasn't using it and once while sending an email. I'm completely stock and did a factory reset yesterday.

The exact same thing happened as well.. How did the factory reset affect the performance?
Thanks

I fixed my snapchat issue by clearing my snapchat data and cache and uninstalling and reinstalling the app!

So I am getting random reboots like crazy in 4.4.1+

So ever since I installed a 4.4.1 or 4.4.2 based ROM
I have been getting Random lock ups to where it freezes then reboots
The only few things I can think of is to reflash stock image and start over or get a new charger because my current charger is kinda a cheap one
Any suggestions?

Any updates on if/how you fixed this? This is driving me crazy.. Been happening for the past two weeks and recently it's been happening more frequently.
