When restarting my note 7 it shows the android gears and says optimizing apps and than starting apps. Takes a while. My wife's Note 7 doesn't do this. Any ideas?
Nope, shouldn't make any difference. I usually link the T-Mobile support pages because they're well done, and the links don't show up funny on these forums (like the Verizon support pages often do).
I don't restart my phone very often, probably second time since the exchange on Sept 20th. The third time it didn't show the gears and optimizing. Weird.
