My NP keeps cutting to black and back to the normal display only stops when I restart device even then after a few minutes it's starts doing it again. Had device less then 24 hours, should I return or is there something I can do? I've searched this forum and Google with no luck. I have a video to show what I mean but don't know how to upload

Guys,
I'm pulling my hair out over this. My MDA Vario has often rebooted itself and i've always put it down to a glitch of one form or another, but today it has been rebooting every few minutes.
Each time it reboots a text message i've read reappears as NEW, as though the phone doesn't register me reading it before it crashes and reboots. If I delete this and other messages, within minutes once it's crashed and rebooted they will all return like a CACHED memory or something.
I don't know what to do.
It seems as soon as my screen dims on power save, it won't come back on and within a few seconds the screen goes white as it is rebooting.
Sometimes reading this message or doing anything in the message application causes the crash, sometimes it's happenign even without me doing anything.
HOWEVER - once i've turned off the power saver dimming the screen, no reboot is occuring. I've gone into the messages, read and deleted this message among others, and no reboot. If I manually turn the screen off though, within a few seconds it reboots.
What is going on ?!
i have the same exact problem! I changed the battery the day before yesterday and it has not done it since, but im not sure if it solved the problem as sometimes it does not restart in one whole day!
This is getting pretty damn annoying. I can't upload a video to youtube because every 10 seconds I get a "waiting to retry" message. I click retry, and the same thing happens again. Is there any fix for this? It's happened every since I got the phone.
So after an hour it finally gets to 100% on a 61mb video and then it restarts back to 1%. Awesome.
I think it's safe to say that Android absolutely SUCKS at uploading youtube videos directly from phone. Had the same problem with my droid.
I'm having a sporadic problem with my xcover that i cannot diagnose. It happens very randomly, sometimes a few times a day, sometimes only 1 time in weeks. The phone functions normally and at some point i cannot wake the screen anymore, and then shortly after it freezes to the point that i need to hard restart it. So when this happens, none of the buttons do anything, so for example if i get a call the phone will ring for a bit with the screen black, me unable to do anything, then after a few seconds it freezes (if i try to call me it goes to voice mail) or if the alarm sounds i cannot stop it only if i pull out the battery, it just keeps playing at full volume with a black screen which is not responsive to the touch.
It's very frustrating that i cannot save any logs because i have to restart the phone in order to use it, and by then the problem is gone. I eliminated all the apps, so its not an app causing this. And its absolutely nothing specific that i'm doing to it. One time i just woke it up, unlocked it, looked at the clock, locked it, and when i went to wake it up again after 2-3 minutes, nothing, gone, completely unresponsive. Also, if i plug it in it makes the sound that its charging. Waiting does nothing, i tried to let it be for more the half an hour and its still the same. And it goes without saying battery is draining a lot faster when its in this 'dead' mode.
The rom with which it happens is the pre-rooted S7710XXAMB6_S7710OXEAMB3-20130713 stock rom.
Anybody has any clue?

Same thing happen to me. I have stock rom S7710XXAMB5
What shuld I do?
also same problem
my XCover2 has the same problem. Last Week 2 to 4 times a day.
Maybe I try to reflash....
The problem started a few days back, after using my phone display just stops working ie the screen goes black as if it is switched off although I get calls and message notifications. This started to become more frequent but a couple of restarts with no display used to do the trick. The day before yesterday, no matter how many restarts display remained off at first I thought this might be a rom issue so I flashed stock rom. phone booted up and after 20 mins of usage, the screen started going black yet again. and no number of restarts could again fix the problem. Now the phone display turns up every once in a day for about 10 mins. Also when I get into the bootloader ( when the display works) the text all get distorted after some time with lots of green and pink lines running here and there. any guess what the issue might be? Is it the displays problem or any other hardware? Please help
I done the oreo 8.o.o on my sm-g935f a few days ago and since it rebooted i can only use it if i keep the screen open, if the screen closes or i get a call or an sms it starts flashing like mad, i can't even get to clear cache or factory reset cos halfway through it reboots itself, if i keep the screen open i can use the net, make calls, play games, everything as normal but once the screen closes thats it the quick flashing starts and i have to turn it off, by rapidly hitting the red off icon as it shows then start the phone again and maybe get 10 minutes before someone calls or i have to put the phone down and it closes, i've no idea what to do its out of guarantee so i can't take it into Three either, thanks for any help.

Thanks for your reply, it looks like a refresh then, I've got nothing to lose, cheers.
Reboot first ?
I've just been reading in the Samsung forum about oreo updates and it's explaining about installing the ota straight away or how you can leave it till later etc, but in both explanations it said that when you select to install it your phone will reboot before starting the upgrade, is that right that it reboots first ? Because i know for a fact my s7 edge didn't reboot, i chose for doing it later because my battery was really low it was either 14 or 16% so i charged ìt up to about 90% then i used sd maid pro to clean out the crap then went and clicked install, and some message come up on the screen i can't remember what it said to be honest but then it went to installing, it DEFO didn't reboot first though, could that be what's caused the problems ? Thanks for any replies.
