A500W Random Restarts - Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Recently my a500w has been randomly restarting. It seem to restart in clusters, 3,4 or 5 times before it stops, with no pattern other than that. factory resets and wipes did nothing, it continues to reboot even when nothing has been added in.

Not able to start from factory reset again, get's stuck or reboots constantly

hi...
I'm really desperate, my phone is suddenly dying and I have no idea why, I'll tell you from yesterday what has happened:
- I'm playing a stupid game and suddenly the screen goes black. No led, phone doesn't answer any button, nothing. I hold power button, nothing. Remove battery and put again, nothing. After some attempts phone turns on, but just after starting it reboots or stays frozen.
- I decide to change the rom (I had simpl rom), so I do a full wipe and put CM 12. It seems it works, but when I'm in the settings, at the beggining, I don't even have time to put the wifi, it starts rebooting again and/or not responding.
- Desperated, I install via odin the stock firmware from Sam Mobile. It seems it's gonna work, but when the dialog of "Android is upgrading -- Optimazitating app x of XX" it always gets stucked in a number, randomly. I never get to the 230 apps.
- As a last chance, I try Kies to install factory firmware. The same as before happens, but now it's only 17 the number of apps it tries to optimize.
These last 2 times, of course, I enter recovery from time to time (now the default one) and wipe cache partition.
My phone is agonizing, what the f is happening? Does anybody know what could happen?
Please help...

Random reboots - how to log?

Hi,
I am owner of a G900F since 2 weeks. The first 1.5 weeks I've used the phone with stock rom for testing functionality, then I've flashed CM12.1 from their offical website. After that, I've flashed Xposed and installed XPrivacy. I don't have any bootloops, just random reboots. The phone freezes for about 3 seconds, the screen gets black, it vibrates two times and then it restarts hard - I see the logo with "powered by android" and then CM loads.
I've tried to find out, why the phone reboots, but LogcatExtreme only shows logs beginning with the boot. How can I find out, why the phone rebooted?
I actually did not find any pattern after which the reboots happen, so logging with the PC is hardly possible. The reboots happen one to three times per day.
You can get the log from /data/log
dumpstate_sys_err.txt.gz
or also dumpstate_app_err.txt.gz
You can open them and search for either FATAL or ERROR, fatal usually causes reboots so i recommend check them out and find out what they mean.
I've tried to open that file, but /data/log does not exist.
bump it up - the problem is not fixed, because I do not have any logs

Optimizing apps and reboot in the loop

I encountered a problem today:
I put a second SIM in, the PIN-Screen showed but was freezed. So I pressed the power button until the phone restarted. Since then android boots, the "Optimmizing apps x to x" screen is showing and when it comes to
"starting apps" it reboots. Over and over.
I already wiped cache with TWRP, problem persists.
When I do a factory reset, it works again. Then I tried to only restore /data. The problem came back.
I really would like to keep my data. Any ideas?
Edit: I'm runing Xyslim (de-bloated stock rom with some tweaks).

random flickering reboot

My Zuk has a weird issue.
Randomly, it reboots itself, and when it boots up the image is flickering. If I reboot manually it stops.
Anyone else experiencing this? It stopped doing that with CM13, but in the last days it started doing it again.
I tried a clean flash but it keeps doing that.
I too have this problem bro. For me it started after i unlocked fastboot. Sometimes the rebooting gets into a loop. Am not sure but I think it happens when the phone heats up.

Nexus 10 difficulties...

About a year ago, I resurrected my nexus 10 with a new battery. After a few oddities, I had to flash the latest available manta (I used Wug's NRT...). I did a factory reset once or twice in the intervening time (after an app backup etc.) Now I'm in trouble....
I'm not sure quite what went wrong but I had just finished charging the device and I knew it was turned on (the notification light was blinking) but I could not get the screen to come to life so I long-pressed it into a reboot... and it started bootlooping on the swirling dots. I re-flashed the OS multiple times... I tried a factory reset multiple times, each time I factory reset the thing would sit on "formatting data" ... at least once I let it sit that way overnight... no dice.
I messed with the NRT several times, tried to do a factory reset or backup after booting into twrp from the NRT (it's all stock allegedly on the device). Not sure what I did but all of a sudden the bootlooping on the swirling dots stopped... I got the "android" logo and then it says: "starting apps"... the circling indiccator goes for about 15-20 seconds then wham... reboots... and that's where I'm stuck...
Factory reset still hangs... and it bootloops just further down the process... starting apps.
What can I do? Does anyone out there have an idea?
