hi! i had 2 samsung phone and i hated both! thats probably last phone i get! waiting for nexus 5 to come!!!
btw i got few problems!
1-when pressing power bottoms it takes up to 1 minute for screen to turn on! even today i almost heart attacked toght my phone is dead!
2-keyboard lags a lot! like i press few keys it dens't vibrate ands tuck at showing key almost near when i end that word it just vibrate many times and show what i typed
3- my google chrom ONLY it stops for seconds and then a black screen and goes to app menu or home:! (forcecloses) when i go back it mostly comes back to where i was but sometimes when i like open a page 1mintues before and it closes i can't see the page or even 1 time it opened blank page!!!!! that's too annoying and it usually happens every 10 mins!
also today i saw some page blinking black white and stuck it happened again i closed the tab!
smart pause doens't work also! most of times it doesn't work but ofc it does in some conditions! and i tryed turning everything off expect smart pasue
have you tried factory resetting the device ?

Smart pause can be used in good light conditions only, in a bright environment ... i find it useless nonetheless ... also i a factory reset doesn't help resolving certain lagging issues see if u can update the phone to latest version ...
I rooted my phone! + wantom lite! what happens if i still factory reset? removes root and completly factory?( damn wont lose apps+ stuff takes time to backup also! i can't update:S but will donwload new version of wantam lite tonight coz the one i ahve is almsot the frist version! lol and also after this happend i almost haven't use my phone for 4w eeks! thats crazy but im so sad and .... also have no diea what to do whit my phone anymore this phone made me forget everything about phones damn im so angry!!!
also my sdcard is burned lost a lot of apps!
If you have a custom rom report your problem to the rom's thread ... also the sd card burned by the heat?
How can u hate a specific phone when u are not running on it what it is supposed to run ... meaning stock software ... because those problems u mentioned are software issues which most likely occurred by lack of optimization of the rom u run atm ... i'm on stock and have non of those issues ...

Ever since the big update (023 or what it was called) my phone reboots its self now and then when I let it sit. It startaed doing it once a week then it started doing it many times a day. 5 days ago I did a repair and it has worked fine until today. It reboots it self again and you're stuck at the pin code.
I've heard that I'm not alone with this problem but few people seem to care. Well I care, A LOT.
How do I fix this.
Obviously it's something SE's done given the fact that it started after the big update.
Im starting to get very tired of this piece of crap and will soon flush it down the toilet. Hang ups, slow interface, reboots, poor screen sensitivity after a while, rediculous sound quality, poor bluetooth support. This is my last SE phone, they're totally incompetent. I tend to use my 9 million year old Nokia handset more than this infernal piece of f**k.
Well .. thanks ..
memory card error ! try copyin all your stuff on your pc then format the card in your phone then copy back worked for me !

Oh FFS dont say that! You will get flamed on here by the kids who think this phone showed apple how to do it.
Slag the X10 of at your own peril! All I did was ask one question and made a comment about 2.1 on the phone and got 3 pages of people phanboying it up.
Your right though the phone is **** and mine is up for sale to get a Galaxy S But thanks for the tip I shall format the card so when I sell it it wont reboot while they are looking at it.
My phone keeps rebooting, and I don't care.
Just kidding. I had this problem before, but it seems to be better now. I was using the program Vault, and I hid away "Backup and Restore" and "SIM Toolkit". After I restored them to normality, I stopped having phone restarting issues.
Also, please don't start a flame war with your complaints about your phone. No one else seems to be having as many issues as you, it is probably something you are doing wrong.

See it's saying thing like that that adds fuel to the flames! Its an open forum so people can express opinions on it yet all I read on here is:
"It's your fault you cant use the phone" this does nothing but incite a retaliation from the poster as if some one said "It's not your girlfriends fault she doesn't cum its yours, I mean she cum for me last night" it would get your back up.
If somebody express an opinion about something does not mean they want a flame war I simply expressed my opinion and agreed with what the OP said.

What do you mean by "I hid away"?. You mean that you just uninstalled Backup & Restore? I have not installed SIM Toolkit whatever that is.
same problem here.
phone reboots once or twice a day and it gets stuck at the pin screen.
this is really annoying.
will try to format the card, and there is another thread were someone said he replaced the battery and the problem was gone.
Found the probable cause of the reboot problem:
Check the "[GUIDE] SIM Card Locks randomly - Howto solve. (rooted SE X10i/a phones only)" in the X10 Anroid Development section.
Try killing Backup & Restore in the Program menu and voilá, the famous SIM card kill bug.
I disabled the SIM card PIN code so it doesn't stick there. The bug is still there but the phone works.
Great work SE - No just kidding - You bunch of amateurs.
well ... the method is for rooted devices, so there is no solution for this yet.
i did format the card to see if i solved anything.
if it reboots when your reading from the card like useing MP3s or looking at photos ! its becuase ther is a bad sector try poping your card in a card reader then let windows tell you there is a error and let it fix this !
i know this sounds stupid but i too had this problem and hav noticed it does it when the battery is at a certain temp (hot) i mite be wrong !!! or is it just a coincidence
Well... formating the card does not help.
Any other ideas?

Do you use a taskkiller? If so stop killing 'backup and restore' .

You don't need a taskkiller on Android. The whole problem with this bug is that people are trying to kill apps/services that shouldnt be killed in the first place.
This is a firmware bug...
I have had a similar problem... however my phone is a new one from the SE repair facility in Poland. It has the latest firmware and the phone exhbits the rebooting with no SIM or SD card installed. The problem also doesn't appear to be related to battery temperature as it can also occur from cold.
I will try an unbranding and see if the same issue exists.

I am not using any task killer.
Mine just started rebooting itself today too after owning it for two weeks. Have been updated to firmware 026 rooted for a few days and notice it only does it when the battery reaches lower than 50%. Gonna re flash it tomorrow and re root it. Reformat the sd card. Will update on if it keeps rebooting.

That did't do the trick for me. Taskkillers will force the bug to trigger, so will the backup & restore program (that seems to runt constantly).
The fix would be to: FIX THE FREAKING BUG IN THE BACKUP & RESTORE PROGRAM, or simply delete it (which is impossible now).
Idiot SE.
Well, it seems mine is rebooting too.
I don't know how often... i just saw it once... out of the blue.
Phone was in standby when happened.
I watching tv and i saw the display turned on with the boot animation and then i figured out what happened.
I uninstalled the backup tool with Titanium. Let's see...
2 day and no reset,i am happy
Guys something is going on with my Phone.
it will freeze with a buzzing sound, it usually happened in games, but now its happening after i boot my phone.
anyone know whats up with this and how i can stop it please?
heeeeellppp!!!!! please!!

Repair using PC companion. Maybe a software glitch.
nope still no go didnt work
this never happened with 1.6, theres lot of reports of this happening with 2.1 though
Remove the battery, remove the sim card and clean contacts, remove memory card and clean contacts, wait 5 minutes and put everything back together.
If nothing works, just use your warranty.
I use to get this once awhile..... not so often with the new aosp firmware (mainly cause I haven't been using it the same way I use to.....) but I use to get what you got too. Never able to fix it.
what firmware are you using now? have you got link please?
Same FW everyone is running on. The AOSP 2.1 ROM 007a. Check in the development section
i dont think i have warranty, because i removed the touch module to put a white cover on ect.
now its getting stuck on the sony ericsson and rebooting again
and yes it was doing this crap before i changed housings
i installed rogers 1.6 ( even though im in AUS lol ) and its working fine now.
i wonder if it would be the same on rogers 2.1
Rogers doesn't mess much with the FW so worth a try to update to 2.1.
just tryed, same crap it crashes sometimes on boot and sometimes after 5 mins of use
will just switch off or reboot
i installed that ROM you got using recovery manager
its not where nere as bad as it was before, it only happens about 5 mins into a phone call, i can actually charge my phone, play game ect and it doesnt reboot
well i am new here but i think this is the place to be...
anywayz i have been using Arc for a month now and Its the sexiest thing ever...maybe after Megan Fox..
but heres the problem...
Ever since i bought it...its been rebooting 4-5 times every day , except the 3-4 days in the second week . Sometimes it reboots , at others i have to switch it on . I used to have a W910i(osum) previously and even it rebooted 4-5 times each day , but with android it takes time and so is a problem.
Any ideas , any help , sumthing ?
Thanks .
P.S -ARC - All New Cult.
You could have a little read through there are lots of posts about reboots maybe your problems could be the same as others on here.

@OP There are 2 to three threads of this kind, please spend some time to read them all before you post.
@everyone, looks like we have too many "Rebooting" thread !!
@Mods please close these threads.
okay...well sorry guys...will check around and come back...
thanks..
Mine did the same and could never figure out why... so I installed LauncherPro (had license from my Nexus S) and installed Winamp for the music app and phone hasnt reboot since... personally I think there is a prob with the SE widgets as the Music Widget always force closed and it was always when playing music the phone rebooted on me.
Dunno if that helps?
my music app never force closes...so dunno if this is the problem..and i dont have any license for what software you are mentioning , It hasnt rebooted for 30 hours straight tho...
Try to increase VM Heap in Build prop to 40 it might help with FC's.
well i dont have any idea about what MVP says...(sounds kool tho)
Another insight to the problem that some of mah applications dont show after reboot...all of them are on the sd card..and i have to reinsert the sd card to get them back or i can move them to phone from the application setting and get them on the app screen .
Is this reboot thing a mem card problem then. This last reboot happened after 60 hours of hard usage (loads of sppedx3d game n wifi ).

hey , This tool or application you are talking about , can you explain what it does and how is it a remedy for random restarts ? Because i dont wanna fiddle with the firmware and dont want to do any stuff like rooting and jailbreaking .
THanks !
VM Heap is like Virtual Memory in Windows. When you increase the size there will be more space for the applications to work with. Less battery drain and less chance of reboot. But you need root and busybox inorder that application to work. People coming from CM7 would know about VM Heap. I'm not guaranteeing that this will work. There is a good chance though.
Uninstall from the phone the f*cking widget, like System Info Widget or simiClock or all other then working and not rebooting
This problem was my too, i make a factory reset and not install so many widget sofware. In the 2.3.2 Rom have a bug and not working good the phone with many widget's.
Sorry for my bad english.

Easy. Factory reset your Arc. If it still reboot in random, it's hardware problem, need replace the main board.
Hi ,
I think all people who have the galaxy s4 i9500 version faced the rebooting problem when the
Camera is opened and it's really annoying!!
I did contact the Samsung Exynos on twitter and they replied
that samsung might help me with their updates !! Really
and where the hell is this update ??!!
I really can't understand is it that difficult to come up with a small update to solve the problem ? I'm thinking that I might have to sell the s4
Thank you all
Got my exynos octa yesterday and it happened to me once so far..
i have a same prob
i have a same prob im witing for the next update ...... my phone reboot after lunching the cam
flash latest framework via odin
Same happened to me few days ago but doesn't seems to happen anymore after I turn off GPS tag

There are other topics open for this exact problem. Thing is, what some have figured out so far is that limiting background applications to 4 from developer options will solve the rebooting issue. Turning off the new s4 features (air gestures, smart screen) will improve the camera app access time.
Hope this helps (temporarily)

TRY THIS.
1.Turn Your i9500 Off.
2.Remove your Sd card.
3.Power up your phone.
4.Use the camera ( you will most probably notice it's significantly faster )
5.With the phone ON, insert your sd card into the phone.
I did this and the lag on my camera seems to have disappeared and the phone is suddenly performing like a beast.
I have no idea why this works, but it works for me,[ so far NO REBOOTS ]

Scratch this - Didn't work , just got 2 reboots back to back
My 64gb sandisk class 10 card is fat 32 . going to re format it in the phone and check if it makes a difference.
Hey, I have The Samsung Galaxy S5 for a year and a half now. For about the past 9 months, the phone would trigger random reboots but they wouldn't be a full reboot. What I mean by this is that the phone would not ask me for my SIM card pin as it would do whenever I'd restart or reboot the phone manually. Also when I boot it into recovery mode, a dead droid icon comes up right before showing up the recovery mode screen.
I have tried the following:
Clearing cache
Factory Formatting
Reflashing OS/ROM
Running Safe Mode
Running the phone clean
Running without SD card
And running without SD card and clean
This is really annoying and a reply and possible help would be really helpful.
P.s. I have tried going to my operator and the phone was sent away and 'repaired' but this problem is still persistent.
Hello Dude!
In my opinion this sounds like a hardware, not a software problem. Does your CPU/GPU heat up often/fast? This could happen an overload and than your phone reboots. Furthermore, did you overclocked your phone in any way? I got the same problem after doing that. More possible reasons I can't imagine.
If you have some questions, ask me

Hey, I actually don't really overclock phones which I use (I only do it with ones that are a spare and something to mess around with. Also no it doesn't tend to heat up on me at all actually. It restarted 3 times in space of 30 minutes this morning by simply watching youtube. The resets are random and can happen at any state of the phone.
Thanks for the reply. I appreciate it.

Ohh okay. Anyways I think that this is a hardwareproblem. I am sure that your problem is very rarely as well.
I think only Samsung or a new phone will solve this problem.
Good Luck!
