Reboots in JB?

**azdmelani** · 09-29-2012, 09:11 AM

I downloaded over wifi earlier this week, and my phone has been rebooting randomly numerous times a day. Is this happening to anyone else?

This happened to me too the first day or 2 after I got the OTA update. Usually rebooted when was browsing the web in Chrome. Noticed that the phone would get a bit warm, and then the screen would go black. The everything would be unresponsive for a good 2-3 minutes, then the phone would boot up on its own.

But after those first few days, it has stopped doing that. Not sure what was going on.

It happened to me once.

I got my GNex on the launch day. It rebooted itself about 2 or 3 times a week for the first two months. I assumed it was due to ICS being new and apps conflicting with it. Since then it hasn't done it at all until the JB update. It has done it 4 times in the first week now. I again assume that one or more of my apps are in conflict with it and that it will stop when apps are updated for JB compatibility.

Mine happens the same way, the screen goes black and the device is unresponsive for 2 or 3 minutes until it reboots itself.

This has happen to me also since the update to JB. Three different times. Screen go black for a couple of mintues and then a reboot starts. I notice this a couple of times while talking on the phone in mid conversation. The other person wondering what happend while I'm waiting for the phone to reboot!

Happened to me as well. The only remedy I found was doing a full wipe and installing JB again. Works great now.

This has happened to me many times since the JB update. Screen will go black and when I attempt to unlock nothing happens and eventually it reboots.

I am also having the same issue. Rebooting in the middle of listening to music. It also takes a long time to come back up doing the reboot. Before JB I had no problems.

How is this affecting some but not others?

Faulty installs, corrupt downloads etc. There are lots of reasons.

You seriously stopped having reboot issues once you did a full wipe? How do you do a full wipe?

Just posted about this very thing earlier... Random Reboots w/ JB 4.1.1 STOCK

Very similar! However, not isolated to reboots while only on WiFi. It's occurred on LTE/4G and 3G as well.
