Hi, I bought my GS4 two days ago and immediately rooted it via the motochopper method, and then installed ClockworkMod via the loki method. I then installed the then latest nightly (cm-10.1-20130530-NIGHTLY).
Now I understand that nightlies come with no promises of work, but I was just wondering if anyone else was experiencing a rebooting problem on their device. Mine reboots randomly, and often. Multiple times a day. On two occasions it has gotten itself into a reboot loop (starts rebooting, gets to the lock screen, and immediately starts rebooting), in which i needed to pull the battery. Still having the same issue on the May 31st build.
I'm just hoping that someone else has this issue, other then just me. Any ideas to fix it would be amazing!
Use a touchwiz rom, problem solved.
CM is nice for sure but, it seems to always be broken.
Fixed!!
After dealing with the issue for a few more days, it continued to get worse. I could no longer uninstall apps (every time I did it would reboot), and it became more frequent, even with updating to the most recent nightly every day.
I finally got fed up with it today. I did a complete wipe of data, cache, and dalvik cache, and reinstalled the latest nightly (cm-10.1-20130530-NIGHTLY). After installing gapps i turned it on and am no longer experiencing any issues!!! Even after i reinstalled all of my apps and restored the data using titanium. Hopefully it has fixed it completely, only time will tell over the next few days.
Hello there xda.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM910F.
So what is happening to my phone is that whenever I am in any random app lets say reddit or even chrome for example. It will like freeze for a minute or two and then unfreeze.
In more extreme cases it will reboot.
So this happened randomly because I flashed a Stock unbloated 5.1.1 ROM from here back in december and everything was working smoothly and stuff. I had xposed installed and all my apps. Then in February it started with this random freeze/reboot. I had not installed anything else apart from what I had for the last 3 months.
So I restarted the phone, changed the battery and stuff to see whether that will fix it. However it didn't. So I formatted the phone (the soft type) just so I can install another ROM. So I tried another ROM, flashed the correct CP and BL and stuff and then just installed chrome and whatsapp. After an hour or two the same thing happened. So this time I factory reset he phone, like a complete wipe and I installed the unbloated ROM once again with few apps. Same thing happened...
So my last resort was to install Cyonagen Mod. After an hour or two same thing happened...
I don't know what is the problem. I read about some peoples phones emmc failing and thus the freezing, but I am not sure yet.
Please could you guys explain what I should do to fix this?
Thank in advance!
I have the same problem. Starting on mid january. I'm on stock 5.1.1 with root and twrp recovery
Tried backup and factory reset
I went back to stock after I factory reset the phone. And still had the same problems.
People say that its a hardware problem... So I guess I'll have to send it back to Samsung soon.
I think I tripped the knox. I just have to unroot and get it back once again to stock and send it back. I hope that they accept it.
i have the same problem. my model is SM-N910W8 and I bought it from 2nd hand, so no receipt and no prove of purchase.
can I still send it back to samsung to fix it?
same problem as you and now my phone died completely .
my phone was 4 months and he has not supported any longer he died naturally lol.
my operator gave me another free under warranty because the phone had a faulty motherboard and after several back galaxy note 4
This started happening to me a week or so ago and my phone just got stuck in a boot loop after it froze and rebooted. I'm on the latest stock firmware. Tried factory reset, reflashed stock firmware, nothing helps. It still reboots (sometimes it almost gets booted completely, other times it reboots after 2 seconds.
Just disable finger print. Yes that magic feature offered by Samsung is causing more hungry that happiness since S5

Many thanks. This was driving me mad for a few days, I had tried three different ROMS, completely wiping everything. I eventually went back to stock, which I'm still running and it was the same; it would run fine for a few hours and then start to lock up until eventually it would either reboot or stop responding and I'd have to pull the battery to restart it.
Just not selecting fingerprint security doesn't work, you have to force stop "Fingerprints" in Application Manager (All).
just do not setup the finger print lol. I was having those problemes too when I bought the note 4 until someone tell "do not setup the finger print" lol, not I'm a happy user.... I hope that android 6.0.1 solve the probleme

Still having the same issue around the same time everyone else started experiencing it.
I also was rooted and had xposed installed on 4.4.4 before the issue started happening.

Hi,
I am reading from time to time here at xda about random reboots issue with ZUK Z1, so here is my short story.
I am the user of ZUK Z1 since last year at the time there was only COS12.1 and CM12.1 available. The phone was working great for the first few months, no single random reboot, even with heavy usage and tons of root tools like xposed framework, greenify (with exp. mode), amplify and other experimental tools etc. Rock solid stability, CM12.1, ZUI, COS12.1, no matter which one.
Some day, somewhere beetween feb/march this year I started to see occasional random reboots, sometimes once a week and sometimes three times a day. After the last one of this random reboots, the phone refused to boot. No recovery mode, no charging screen, no fastboot, even no access to qualcom recovery port for use with QPST and QFIL tools.
Tried to drain the battery and charge again with no success, tried to soft-restart by power button - no success. The thing that helped after phone sitting on desk for next three months, was to dissassembly the phone and reconnect battery. After this, the phone boots up again, bot the random reboot issue is back, no matter CM12.1, CM13 or COS12.1
And now the questions time:
The question is, is this a software issue after some of the updates or hardware issue?
Are there users with the random reboots problem with the newest firmware?
How to debug and catch this random reboot on the logs without ADB connected to see what is going on?
What have i done to fix the issue:
- reflash phone many times with different versions of COS12.1 and CM13
- flash fresh .zip from recovery
- flash directly from fastboot with official COS images the support page
- fsck, partirion check for errors, etc.
- formated phone by QFIL tools
- tried to track the problem from logs, but so far no value information are stored after reboot
What i am going to do:
- install ZUI 1.6 to verify that the issue comes back
- as much as i can, use the device with ADB logcat connected by cable, to catch the occasional reboot
- recompile kernel with enabled options to store crash reason after reboot ( kernel pstore feature or last_kmsg )
I am in the same situation as you, investigating....
Please update your results, very interested to find if software or hardware problems....
Thank you.
Carlos
Are you restoring apps after you flash your phone? If so, try not to. Just install basic apps you need and see if problem persists, since Google restores app with it's data.
Phone rebooted in recovery, so I think it's a hardware problem.
Phone is traveling to China again.
After what perio of time your problems started? I have my z1 for 2 weeks and it works perfect. I keep it on heavy usage for a few hours daily.

I love everything in that zuk so hope it won't brick. When it happen i will just chargeback money from gearbest
Hello,
I'm in the same situation !
My phone randomly reboots and also freeze (have to do an hard reset).
Have you find any solution ?
I am also having this issue... I will probably send it for the warranty. I have tried a few different roms, even restored back to CyanogenOS and the reboots continued...
I got mine since October, haven't had any reboots so far.
I'm running the latest update from cos without root or custom rom.
Seems like a hardware issue to me, I have tried everything software side.
same issue
I'm also having the same issue,any fixes??
Random reboots just stopped happening on my device a week ago. Before that I was trying different ROMs and flashed different versions of TWRP but the reboots were still happening. Then the reboots just stopped from happening and now everything is working perfect. I think it is a hardware fault. Probably some electronics (cables or what not) on my device are now having contact but were not having it before, I don't know. But if you are experiencing rebooting issues, just send your phone to the repair.
Any fix to this?
Whenever I do dirty flash, my zuk z1 random reboot twice a week. It is highly recommended to do a clean flash if you want to avoid random reboot.
Clean flash = No random reboots. @sebeqone
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.

I have the same issue.... I have unlocked phone on a thai carrier
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.

Hi all,
For the last 3/4 weeks my Moto X Style XT1572 has been randomly rebooting, usually this is when it is not in use and either in my pocket or desk.
I was running AICP and tried a couple of factory resets. This did not help.
I then factory reset and installed Dirty Unicorns (last weekly). Again this hasn't helped. No overclocking, undervolting, just stock kernels and I have tried handbag kernel.
Still rebooting.
Anything else I can try before throwing it in the bin?
Motorola are not interested in repairing due to unlocking the BL.
Thanks

Flash the newest stock 6.0.1.
Without botloader, gpt, no oem commands(don't lock BL).
You need stock system to recognize: hardware or software problem.
I was going to say that my wife's MXPE has been doing the same thing with multiple random reboots and losing constantly losing all her Bluetooth pairings. But her phone is completely unrooted and OEM Marshmallow OS.
I seem to have resolved the issue by using the Chill governor. Fingers crossed, but I've not had a reboot for 2 days now...

Mine is doing the exact same: random reboots and it loses all Bluetooth pairings and have to redo them. Running TruePure ROM but nothing else so far.
I did a Dalvik/Cache wipe and it calmed down a bit now, it randomly reboots about 1-2 times a week (over it doing it 1-2 times a day) and when it does reboot, so far, it hasn't lost the Bluetooth pairings yet.
Gonna see if I can go back to stock and install the latest updates and then take it from there, when I get a chance to.

Moto X Style , Android 6.0 , Not rooted, pure stock, exact same symptoms as you guys with the random reboots while not in use , losing Bluetooth pairings... Did a factory reset, didn't change a thing. Sometimes, I can get 2 days without reboots, then have 2 in the same hour the next day. It sucks. I'm hoping the Nougat update will fix this, if it ever gets released for my version...
Got 1 doing the same stuff, all stock, gets warm, reboot itselfs, wrong date and time, and no bt pairing
Mine is still doing it too. Not as bad as it was but at least once per day, when idle, sleeping it just reboots for no apparent reason. Not ROM, Kernel and I have factory reset.
