I just bought Galaxy Note 6 days ago, it came with 2.3.5. German firmware, so I updated to 2.3.6. via Kies with little problems but updated after all. The phone is so laggy and slow that I want to try factory reset first. WillI go back to 2.3.5. original firmware. I really don't want to go throught that Kies nightmare again. It took me 2 days, trying every hour to finish the update. I have no root, everything is stock at this point.
Thank you developers.
I think you should give new firmware some time. It should settle within 2-3 days of usage. According to me it takes some time for a new battery or firmware to give optimum results.

When you do a factory reset it just wipes your user data and resets the settings just like if you were to open it out of the box new but whatever firmware you flashed to will still be the same because the previous 2.3.5 firmware was overwritten.
I have updated today and the response of my Galaxy Note is swift en everything but
laggy. Never heard that new software has to settle?
For what it is worth.

That is odd, I had this problem, but it was when I was rooting with Zergrush. There was an issue on flashing the zimage(second step) after the root had finished. So I rerooted again and the lag went away.
I would honestly do a factory reset. If you are rooted already, do a titanium backup of apps + data. Then later only restore missing apps with data.

Hi
I just got this phone for my wife and all is well, but I have heard that the Lollipop update is quite bugged.
We are experiencing random reboots.. With twenty or thirty minutes interval...
Is the random reboots a known problem for lollipop or is it just this phone being a candidate for repairs?
Any other bugs I should be worrying about?
All best and thanks in advance..
Did you factory reset the phone yet? Upgrading to Lollipop from Kitkat leaves rubbish files behind that a factory reset fixes, myself included have reset and it has fixed just about everything
I'm running Lollipop and never had any random reboots. Its running very smooth here. If you updated from kitkat perform a factory reset after update.

Hi
It is the G900F nordic...
And The battery drain is insane...
What I would do; reflash the actual Rom via Odin.
If this doesnt work: downgrade to KitKat and back to lollipop again.
Afterwords everything should be fine. Dont forget to wipe after every flashing process.

Anybody else's phone rebooting every few days..?
It hard reboots (Galaxy S7 edge screen), so i thought it might be hardware failure.
Haven't downgraded to 6.0 to check.
I don't have an sd card inserted (because the one i had corrupted which caused my phone to randomly reboot, now i took it out and it still does it)
Also, I noticed that every time it randomly reboots, the battery percentage drops significantly.
G935F, stock

Before you updated to nougat 7 did you do a full and complete wipe
which includes wipe system, data, cache, dalvik cache and last but
not least did you do a factory reset in twrp recovery before odin
flashing the Nougat firmware?
Are you 100% sure that you odin flashed the correct Nougat 7 firmware for your S7 Edge?
Flashing the wrong firmware can cause rebooting issues and fast battery drain.
Flashing without doing a full and complete wipe can cause rebooting issues too.
Good luck, have a great day!

well, i had a clean 6.0 install which upgraded to 7.0 via ota (UK BTU firmware),but thanks i suppose
(and i also factory reset 7.0 many times)
I am getting random reebots since nougat. I flashed the bell nougat (in on Rogers in canada) and then flashed the Rogers CSC. Things seem to check out so I'm not sure what's wrong. I am going to try to get the Rogers nougat files and see if that addresses the issue.

You DO NOT have to do a 'factory reset' every time you have an update, not even for an operating system update.
I don't know where this comes from but it's stupid.
These updates are designed to integrate with existing systems!
You are as likely to solve any issues with a few reboots.
If you have a problem it's likely due to software conflicts of an app you've installed, not the operating system. Android is pretty good sorting itself out.
So, you do a factory reset with all the hassle of trying to get things back to where you were and then you install another app which causes an issue and ...
Pointless as are the cache wipes always suggested. Android is good at managing resources.
At least with a cache tidy up you're not back to square one
I wished folks would stop suggesting factory resets at every opportunity. Mad.
I get them too, i`m on the lastest NEE software updated via ota. Randomly, when i get it out of the pocket, it says enter pin number because your phone was restarted, i`m using fingerprint lock.
Hello I have a Galaxy S7 and since the update to Android Nougat 7.0, my phone restarts randomly, it can stay an entire week without restart and it can also restart 2 days in a row. It's totally random. I have reset to the factory settings and I have reinstalled only the most important applications (facebook messenger, viber, yahoo mail) but unfortunately about ten days after reset, the problem has reappeared. What could be the cause of this problem? For info, the firmware version installed on my phone is: G930FXXU1DQBO. Also, I saw on SamMobile that the countries that received the update later, had a new version. Could the problem come from that? Is this a bug in the firmware installed on my Galaxy S7. Thank you in advance for your help.
Sadly I have the same problem. Oddly enough this is my first handheld which I didn't root and the first I am running into such issues with.
Got a OTA update to Nougat and I am getting almost daily random restarts.
I wasn't able to discern any patterns so far. Sometimes while it is charging, sometimes just being in my pocket. It doesn't run hot as if an app is running havok nothing.
So far I cleared the cache and that seemed to help but alas it started again.
Does anyone have an idea what is left to try? I would do a complete wipe, but others reported that it did jack for them so I am hesistant to try it.
Sorry for My bad English, i m italian.
Try to remove Chrome. The issues is there for me.
Bye
I have some problem. Not to mention battery life severely reduced after update to nougat. usually 5h screen on time to now 2.. max 3h. SAD.
Samsung Galaxy S8+ Random Reboots
Same problem with my Samsung Galaxy S8+ running Nougat. Purchased the phone from AT&T and received it 3 days ago. It randomly rebooted twice so far, once when I was looking at photos and once when using the play store

I have the same problem. It is completely random, it can happen every 2 days or once a week. Even after a factory reset, this problem of random reboots still persists. The firmware version is G930FXXU1DQBO and I still have not received a new update. Have you solved your problem?

Do you reset your phone to factory settings? What is your firmware version? It seems that the old versions are not very stable.

No, the problem is still here, i did not receive any software updates so far. Sometimes it reboots even twice a day, random, sometimes 2-3 weeks without reboot. Waiting for ota update, maybe it will solve it.

After receiving the February version, did you receive a corrective update? If this is the case, it may be the update that has solved your problem.

Since when did the restarts start? What is the firmware version number of your Galaxy S7?
Forgive me if this has been posted already before, but I could not find anyone with the same problem after extensive searching.
I bought a used V20 off of Swappa a few weeks before the Oreo update hit. It was working great until I got the notification for the update from Nougat to Oreo. I updated right away and within a few hours of light use, had several random reboots. The phone doesn't feel hot or anything, just reboots mid-use. I can be doing anything, from talking on the phone, to browsing the internet or sending a text. I'd say for every hour of screen on time, I get two reboots. I thought it might be a bad/corrupted Oreo download, so I used the LGUP software to revert it back to Nougat. While on Nougat, the reboots went away. I updated to Oreo again and the reboots came back.
Does anyone have any idea what is happening here? I'll be reverting to Nougat again tonight and keeping it that way until I can figure this out.
Also, the phone is completely stock, except the bootloader is unlocked.
EDIT: Should of also mentioned I've done a factory reset as well.
It may be necessary to hard reset the device so back up thing's and do a hard reset.....
@stinka318 Thanks for the reply. I should of mentioned that I've done a factory reset from the settings too! I edited my original post with this info.

Oh damn. All my years of using Android phones and I never knew there was a difference. Then again, I've never had problems with any of my previous phones like this so I never needed to learn. Thanks for the knowledge! I'll try it tonight and then update back to Oreo and see what happens.

No dice. Got a reboot within the first ten minutes after updating to Oreo.
I guess my next option is trying to root it and see if a custom Oreo rom does the same thing. But that laf exploit thread looks like it's gonna take a bit of reading and learning before I attempt it.
