Random reboots on stock - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hi
I was tired of the instability with root, custom roms and kernels and decided to go back stock.
I flashed stock firmware from Sammobile and did a factory reset afterwards. Only app I have installed that changes anything is greenify with aggressive doze. Could that do it? Witnessed it twice already. My phone vibrates 2 times and then reboot. Could I have done anything with custom kernel so something in my phone is broken?

do you have an sdcard installed in your phone?
if yes, then try using phone without one.
clear cache after removing card and reboot.
also install a cpu temperature monitoring app that shows temp all the time on screen.
This way you can monitor is the issue is sdcard or thermall shutdown/reset.

I think this is heading in the right direction. I have a stock S7edge and 40GB of music and about 10GB photos on my 128 GB Samsung SD card. I have been trying for a month to track down why I get one quick vibrate, then 5-10 sec later two quick vibrates and then the phone reboots.
It's been driving me crazy. Ive factory wiped the phone twice, I only use apps from the app store, I've tried tracking my apps and installing / removing app after app, and can't seem to figure out a pattern.
Now that we're discussing the SD card I think this may actually be the cause. I do think my music app (rocket player , but also happened with monkeymedi) was running and I have the photo album widget running at same time when the reboots occur.
Again this is very had to figure out. From what I can tell there is no crash reporter for Android like there is for iPhone (which is unbelievable).
Please keep this thread going. I think we're on to something.

I have this problem... Any once have fix for this behavior ?

Hi guys.
I had the same problem and i try all ways (factory reset, Wipe, Flash different Kernels and...) but my phone (Note3 N9005) reboot randomly.
I saw a video in YouTube and he solved this problem by installing a simple app (Wake Lock). I tried this way and my problem completely solved.

Note 4 reboots randomly only when rooted and it happens mostly when it's idle

I have the Note 4 (SM-N910H), I've had mine rooted for 2 weeks and it kept randomly rebooting twice or so every 1-2 days, now I've removed the root and everything seems to be working fine with no reboots for 1 week. Most (I even think all of them) of the random reboots happened while the phone was idle (screen off).
I've rooted using the CF-Auto-Root via odin.
Anyone knows why the root was causing random reboots for me? I've tried with knox disabled and enabled and with both options I get the same reboots while the phone is idle, also I would like to mention that I don't have an SD card in my phone. I tried everything, Tried a recovery reset, tried a soft reset... It only happens when I root it.
Thanks.
Sometimes xposed module can be a culprit.

It keeps rebooting mine so if i unroot it will solve the issue?

Xposed sucks on a stock odex roms. I suggest you flash a new rom or deodex your stock rom.
the note4 i have atm was never rooted (efuse intact), but it also reboots randomly every few days, sometimes every few hours!
so i would say root is NOT the general cause!!
maybe, or perhaps root makes it worse, but it cant be the only reason!!

In my case it's the issue, I've had mine un-rooted for 3 weeks now with no any random reboot, I rooted it yesterday using CF auto root just to test and it rebooted today while it was idle. I've never used any Xposed modules. It's also on stock rom and stock recovery.

I think it's worth a try to unroot and see if the problem is solved for you.
Thank you.
Do you know how to unroot?
The biggest problem is how to pass my apps and data without Titanium that needs root access..

Just flash the latest stock ROM from sam mobile (http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/) for your exact model number and CSC using odin, no data or apps will be lost and root will be automatically removed after the process.
You can install "Phone INFO ★Samsung★" from play store to know what your exact model number and CSC, you can also type all the fields you get after you open it (except for your IMEI) and write them down here to me so I can give you a link of the stock ROM from sam mobile so you just download and flash via odin.
After rooting open SuperSu and choose never for the question to also disable Knox. Until now I didn't have any unexpected reboot.

I mentioned in my original post that I tried with both, knox disabled and enabled but with both options I had the same random reboots, no matter what I do, the same problem for me as long as I am rooted. Did you have random reboots before while you are rooted and now you fixed it somehow?

Apps Crashing on OxygenOS 2.1.2

PROBLEMI have been using my oneplus two for like 2 months and i did not face any issues. After the latest 2.1.2 update, after a few days my apps started crashing. Only a few did not crash, my Facebook, messenger, uc browser, 9gag and all my games crash, when i open them their is either a black or white screen and then it crashes
THINGS I DID first i booted into stock recovery and wiped data and cache. This did not work and the problem still Persisted.
Then i factory rest my phone. This worked and all my apps were back to normal. Untill it happened again today and i do not want to go through the hassle to factory reset again.
Is anyone facing these issues?
Can any dev get me a solution for this problem.

(XT1575) Moto X Style February Security Update Problem

Hi all
First I'd like to apologise if this thread already exists but so far I cannot find anything (please link me it if it does)(this is my first post as well)
I bought the phone a couple of weeks back. The phone had Android 6.0 marshmallow on it out of the box. The phone has been working perfectly up until today. This Morning i got a notification to say there was a new security update available. I downloaded the update (6mb) and installed it. I went off to work and when i took the phone out of my pocket it was rebooting. I waited for it to boot and after about 20 seconds of using the phone it became unresponsive, i.e. the screen froze, and a couple of seconds later the phone restarted. The phone rebooted constantly throughout the day when I tried to use it. When I got home I searched online for help but didn't find anything, although a factory reset can solve a lot of problems and so that's what I did. I setup the phone as a new phone but after about mins it froze and rebooted again. I have just turned the phone off and I am using a spare atm. I am considering a re flash of the software, however if any of you have had the same problem and have had an easy fix, please let me know. Any help is appreciated
Regards
TechGuy
It is odd that even after a factory reset it did this. Maybe try another factory reset and put your Google account on the phone but not any of the apps from Google restore. This will tell you if an app that you have installed is clashing with the new security patch or if the phones software is the culprit.

@TechGuy82 ... Go to the "General" thread (if you haven't already) the whole matter of installing the update is being thrashed out there.
Yeah check out the thread in general... Also just wanted to confirm that I'm having the exact same problem you are and have tried factory reset with the same results. I'm currently attempting a complete software flash with the CLARK_RETUS_6.0_MPH24.49-18_cid9_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip using the flash all bat

After the factory reset, the phone is rebooting before i can even set it up.
Same issue. I even rerooted and flashed a different rom and it will do it. going to try flashing back to stock before the update and see what happens.
I have the notice for this update - I am not rooted nor have I installed TWRP (I'd like to, eventually)
What I do need to know:
I don't use the phone like most do - services except for buying apps are not necessary. I have downloaded and paid for large data base nature and astronomy apps which a dumb phone won't run. I like speed on the phone so a program opens faster.
Given that - I have disabled 95% of the social type apps on the phone. I've disabled all the extras from Motorola. I don't use, want or need them. What will happen if I apply this update? I
1. Will it refuse to run if something is disabled?
2. Will it override disable and open whatever it thinks it needs?
3. Will it just install where it needs to?
4. Will it bugger the phone?
I just read through what's in Google services and I don't seem to need that. The only thing would be verification of a bought app from Play Store. I disabled Maps, Location, Hangouts, Photos -- There's better paid apps in Play Store and that's why I need to be sure that Play Services doesn't do the checks to see if you bought the app.
I like the feel of this phone, the performance and I love the camera. I just want to use it my way. If I could carry all my reference books with me, I'd use a feature phone. I like to take nature walks and birdwatch.

I have got answer for my own question.
It happens when before flashing in terminal type "fastboot oem fb_mode_set" , thats kind like bootloader force mode , when you reboot it always boots to fastboot. So after flashing i forgot to type "fastboot oem fb_mode_clear" to exit force mode.
Sorry for too many "reboot" words)
The only way I was able to resolve it was to do a full restore using this factory image. Leave it in fastboot and reflash. I tested before had wiping my sd card, removing my sd, wiping the internal, cache. Figured at that point easier just use a full stock image and see what happens.

Random reboots

I am on Android M right now and sometimes I have some kind of a weird random reboot on my phone... My phone is NOT rooted but the crazy thing is: it is like a soft reboot because after the rebooting process -> apps are still open (atleast in the recently opened apps tab) ... Does somebody have a solution or does somebody have the same problem? Is it a software problem? Thx in regards![emoji16]

The recent thing is just how it works in L up afaik, it just displays apps open even through a powercycle. You mainly need to try and narrow it down and figure out what the realm of the cause may be, then get a logcat, no root needed just setup adb.

i reverted back to kitkat and i don't have reboots anymore (but i don't think it was a software problem but only the fact i didn't factory reset my phone after updating to MM)

why do so many apps crash on oos?

Radio.com, peacock, and a TON if others crash when I try to open them. Is anyone else having this issue?
I don't think I had a single app crash on my 8 Pro since I got it other than the GCam mod when selecting unsupported features.
You might want to do a cache wipe or factory reset.
I haven't had any either. As mentioned, try clearing cache and seeing what's using ram...
No crashes for me. Try a factory reset. Did you restore from a different device when you got it?

I have the same issue and it seems to happen after i have been downloading magisk or edexposed modules. Ill be in the middle of an app and it exits itself to my home screen. I figured it was because i hadn't rebooted directly after downloading a module.
Same issue here, even after factory resetting and clearing data and cache on apps they will open for once but than will crash, I'm rooted, unlocked bootloader, twrp, xXx ROM, clean-state kernel and a few magisk modules, no xposed. I might go back to 7 pro for the time being and give this 8 pro to my wife as I'm used to lineage which is a lot better than OOS in my opinion, but this app crashing problem should be solved, cheers

Initially I did restore apps from back up but when they started crashing I tried clearing the app cache and clear storage and even uninstalling and reinstalling from play store but with no luck, most of the apps got sorted by reinstalling but some didn't and they still crashing, cheers
I do have a couple apps that continue to crash. Not right away but when navigating their menus or settings they'll start to crash. Never had this kind of problem with any other phone. This is my first OnePlus device so who knows. I've tried everything you've tried as well

Restoring will definitely lead to that sometimes. What apps are crashing?

I'm wondering if the issue is caused by magisk modules. I ask because I have been experiencing the same issue and we are running similar setups. I'm just missing twrp and running ElementalX instead. FYI there is a lineageOS for this phone so you don't necessarily have to downgrade yourself back to 7pro lol
Same issue here mainly the app Call of duty. Recently I did a fastboot erase userdata w/ reset & it didn't crash for a week or two. Just when I thought it was fine, it's been crashing like crazy. I tried ram boost off, battery optimization off, etc w/ no success. I'm using magisk hide with a few modules and that is it. I have USB debugging disabled along w/ OEM unlock unchecked.
Just wanted to add for the record and I'm not sure what to make of it. Thx
My only issue is that VLC crashes if I try to open it from recents..Not that big deal though and it might have something to do with VLC itself so dunno..

Hi ,call of duty is the main offender on my one plus and I've seen a lot of threads that suggest earlier phones were having the same issue.
