[Q] My Verizon Variant G2 randomly shuts down. - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
My Verizon variant G2 randomly powers off. I am rooted and am running the beta CM 11 build that has been floating around. I figured that might be the cause of the issue, so I reloaded the backup of the stock rom I had floating around (stock+root). The issue persisted. The interesting thing is that it is not rebooting, it is just powering off. Has anyone experienced this? Does anyone have any recommendations for what I could try to resolve the issue? Is there any way I can test for hardware problems?
Thanks!

[Q] Custom ROM and Sudden Screen ON?

Has anyone been able to find a fix for the sudden screen on issue when you are running a custom ROM? I have found that after updating to a custom ROM after the firmware push from ACER that the sudden screen on issue has returned. I have searched but with no luck. I was just wondering if there has been any new developments on this issue from the DEV's?
It would be nice to not have my tab die after 12 hours of standby because my screen keeps turning on.
Any help?
I have been monitoring Cat Logs with this issue both with WIFI and without WIFI on so if anyone wants those I can save and send them over.
This happens on my OTA ROM as well. I think it is just an issue with the device, or at least something non rom specific.

[Q] Wallpaper disappears after Shut down

I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem. Whenever I shut down my phone and restart, my wallpaper disappears. I have tried the stock wallpapers and photos but every time I turn it completely off and back on it disappears. I just got my unit about a month ago and am running the stock ROM (not rooted nor custom ROM). I have checked several places but cannot find if I am missing a setting or some other solution. The phone is running Android 4.3, Build Number JSS15J.N900VVRUBMJE.
Anyone else having this problem and more importantly, does anyne have a fix?

I have the same problem on my just purchased at&t note 3, running stock kitkat. Truly weird for the factory firmware to have such a bug.

Random reboots on c-rom. (cm 11)

Anyone else has a similar issue? I've always had this issue ever since I started using the s4. Even on a close to clean state (after factory resetting and installing minimal apps). Can someone please point me to a possible issue? I thought of exposed. But even with it disabled it sometimes happens.

CM11 on G900T Sticky Vibration and Freezing

Hey everyone,
I couldn't find anything about this in the TMobile Galaxy S5 forum or the unified thread, but I've been using the nightly CM11 for weeks now, but every so often the phone will freeze for no reason (not performing any consistent tasks). Also I noticed that when the screen is off and I get a notification, sometimes the vibration will "freeze" and won't stop vibrating until I turn on the screen. Has anyone else had these issues? I'm not running a custom kernel or anything, and I did a completely fresh install about a week ago to solve the issues, to no avail.
Anyone?

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.
