A month or so ago my S3 began 'dying'. Freezing randomly, rebooting regularly. It started off as a 'once or twice a day' thing, and by last week it would reboot any time I opened an app, freeze any time I made a call, etc.
I switched my sim back to my old Galaxy Ace 3 and haven't had an issue. However I also didn't sign into my current google account, on the Ace 3. I had no issues with rebooting or freezing in the 2 days that I used it, however I never asked much of it other than to text and call.
Today my MIL had upgraded to a A3 so gave me her old S4. For the first 15 minutes I had no issues, and used it as normal. Then the old rebooting started again. I had downloaded an app and played it for 5 minutes, then reboot. After that, it rebooted or turned off every time I tried to do anything at all. This phone was working perfectly this morning when my MIL had it, and has for the past 12 months until today.
Now the 3 things my S3 and S4 have in common are:
Sim card
Updated to newest android release
My google account.
Any ideas which would be the culprit? I'm so frustrated right now not having a decent phone to use! My Ace3 drives me nuts and has no memory
