If I boot my phone up, go to the home screen, my phone will get the little soft popup s aying "Auto Update of Time/Date" and then everything pauses, and the phone "soft" reboots itself. Meaning it doesnt do a full reboot, but it comes back searching for a network, performing the media scan, etc.
I did a factory reset to get rid of this, and now it's back again. It's MAD annoying. Anyone else having this issue?
Yep I noticed the same thing with mine. I thought it was normal but I'm beginning to think otherwise. I'm getting some connecting to dm server thing as well.
Sucks, the phone's awesome but if it keeps doing this then it won't even matter.
One thing I noticed is if I let the phone sit, and load up it's usually okay. If I try to go into the phone settings while it's booting up, thats when I'll see the auto update note and bam, restart. It'll keep doing this until I either leave it alone or pull the battery.
Good to hear it's not something im doing.
deng this just started happening to me like 5 minutes ago
its getting a bit of annoyed
my phone was rooted and then i unrooted it and it still has the same problem
Do you folks have any Task-kill app running in the background?
I had the same issue as well when I had a Task Killer app running in the background. It seems the app is killing some service that is causing soft reset. I turned off the auto mode last week and this hasn't happened since then.
Hope this helps..
fix
if u download any gameloft games thats your problem my phone was doing that then i took the games from gameloft off and now it works great hope that helps
Certain apps can cause it, I also had a gameloft game cause it. If you need to get access to uninstall apps the phone should boot fine without a sim in it.

I am having the same problem, The phone keeps doing a soft reset. I noticed this happening after I tried to download a song from an app I installed on my phone. I deleted the app, and the problem still exists, it is REALLY ANNOYING
Hi,
I've had my phone about a month now. I rooted it the day I got it. It seems like whenever I wake it up from long sleep or get a text message sometimes and try to wake it up, it freezes during the swipe and then randomly reboots. Sometimes it'll just make it to the att symbol and lock up again making me hold power down and then turn it back on. Then it works fine for a good period of time before the issue happens again.
tried- returning phone to stock. Didn't fix. Tried uninstalling att bloatware, not as frequent now but still happens. I have tried underclocking using rom manager. Didn't change anything. Next step maybe to try a custom rom and see if maybe there's a problem with my factory rom? Right now im in safe mode to see if its a third party app.
Is anyone else having this problem or should I consider warranty issue?
Not a third party app
It just did this in safe mode, so it must not be a third party app issue. I'm thinking about trying to install wicked rom following directions on galaxys4root.com. If it still freezes I think it may be a hardware issue.. Anyone have any thoughts?
alt keyboard?
My phone was/is doing the same thing. It seems to me like the phone is working now and I haven't had it freeze up since last night. Every time I install Swiftkey it starts freezing up and I have to pull the battery to reboot.
Hi!
Im usually kinda good finding information by myself, but now im stuck. after installing the sweetrom kitkat, i have been having tons of problems.
some of my apps dont start automatically (usually they do), like tasker dynamicnotification and gravity screen.
for the first few minutes, im not able to close the screen. power button normal click doesnt work (i can hold it and get to the shutdown menu)
google play store is forceclosing all the time. all this happening with clean install.
has anyone any idea what is happening? kinda regretting this upgrade =/
AT&T LG G2 running stock 4.4.2 (D80020c)
Occasionally, about once a week or so, the phone just restarts itself with no warning.
Is there an Event Viewer type app that would let me see why it is restarting? Running hot maybe?
No issues otherwise. Just strange, and a bit annoying.
Try to shut down LTE.
So I recently returned to full stock to dump the latest partitions and I came across a problem I had forgotten about. Sometimes when switching tracks or multitasking with Google play music in the background the music suddenly stops. After this the music app refuses to open and I get a weird dialogue message warning me "Google has stopped working". The warning literally just says "Google" not Google play services or Google play music. This causes crazy amounts of lag. Then it hot reboots (att logo and then to the lockscreen) and all is well. Comes back once every few reboots. It was the main reason I rooted originally back in January. Never once occurred after I rooted it, but as soon as I returned to full stock it reoccurred. Figure it can't be hardware as it would occur while running custom ROMs, and I'm not sure how to take a bug report without root. Wondering if anyone has experienced anything like this using Google play music. It's the only app that causes this issue. Very weird problem.
