[Android Central Question]

Hi

I have bought a second hand Samsung Tablet S3 and used around 1.5 years.
It worked fine until recently while using multi apps and WIFI on it would get slow, hot and then freeze then enter into an infinite reboot loop.

As a temp fix I left the tablet charging and then the tab would not reboot until battery reached a certain percentage.

Then it started again, so I did a backup while I could and performed a factory reset.

The issue was fixed, until around a month later the same issue resumed!!

I ran antivirus scan,downloaded battery health check, everything seems fine.

Please help me...

The OS currently running is 8.0

Maybe try put in safe mode, this will disable all 3rd party apps to see if it was one of them causing this issue.

I tried safe mode before. tablet rebooted anyway. Only factory reset helped but its back now after a month.

When you went to safe mode it kicked you out?

[Shaderite Matobit]

Welcome to Android Central! I would suspect either a failing battery or motherboard (especially since things seem to be heating up unusually).
