Random reboots on overclocked kernels (blueberry, benschold) - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For some reason I'm getting random reboots on overclocked kernels. My phone freezes for a couple of seconds, then reboots.
And everytime my phone reboots (manual or not) the OnePlus logo bootloops for about 2 times before showing the bootanimation.
I'd gladly provide you with logs. But I read somewhere that they get deleted after reboot.
*EDIT*
I think I solved it. Read my reply underneath.

Alright, so I'm gonna try coming up with a solution for this.
I switched to a stock kernel, and I continued getting the reboots. But they were muuuch less frequent. So it's obviously related to my phone, and not the kernel.
So what I'm gonna try to do is follow this thread: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/battery-problem-fix.240256/
I'm gonna do it for 3 cycles. If it works, I'll update this post (might need someone to remind me) If it doesn't, then I'm gonna try other things to solve it (and update this thread). But this should be the final and only solution, hopefully. I'm currently on CM13. If this doesn't work on CM13 I might flash OOS.
Anyways, I'm at the end of the first cycle. The reason I think it's the battery is because my phone would randomly reboot and if I went into recovery mode, it'd say 50%. No matter what percentage before. Or it wouldn't show any counter at all.
*EDIT*
I think this solved it

I believe the issue is because of doze. I had these reboots after I stopped using my phone for 1-2 hours (when doze kicks in) and the phone would begin rebooting every ~10 minutes. When I used doze editor to force doze to start faster I started getting reboots in 5-10 minutes and when I disabled doze there would be no problem with rebooting at all.

After the first cycle I haven't had a single reboot. Been running benchmarks on both stock and oc kernel to put the phone at 100% load and it hasn't crashed yet. I think this worked. I'm gonna report if it randomly reboots at lower battery levels.

I think you should try a non CM rom, preferably tipsy because I'm on tipsy with ben's kernel and haven't had a single random reboot in days.

After doing one cycle of this, the phone rebooted randomly once. Which I think was because of a software bug.
Been running Slim6 since yesterday. Not a reboot here either.

franco.kernel problems.

I really, really like franco.kernel, but there is one problem.
When I first flashed the kernel, it worked fine for a day. Then the problems started to happen. After the first day of it starting to work, I woke the tablet up and it froze right at the lock screen. I then did the hold the power button for 15 seconds to reboot and it rebooted fine. I booted in to Android (thankfully) and again it froze right at the lock screen. I do this process about 3-5 times and then it finally works normally. And the next day, the entire process is done again, etc. I have absolutely no clue what the hell is up with that.
Just tell me if there is any way I can keep the kernel, or if I have to go back to stock (If it goes down to having to go back to stock, can someone tell me how to do that?)

do you have it "set to boot" on a high cpu oc or a high gpu speed?
Whenever I download a torrent, my tablet always freezes on Franco. I have to revert to lean kernel temporarily. It happens on every f.kernel build
Are you on the latest kernel?

I didn't have any problems with using Franco #25 on the ROMs based on 4.1.2.
If you are on a ROM based on 4.2.1, I'd like to recommend to go back to Franco #31. I think it was the most stable version on Nexus7 for 4.2.x.

Constant Freezing/Rebooting Nexus 7 (2012)

Ok guys. I don't post often since I can usually find my answers by lurking the forums....but I'm at my wits end here. My 2012 Wi-Fi nexus 7 all of a sudden started acting funny one day. It would freeze u randomly, then reboot, then get stuck in a boot loop for about 10-15 minutes, then boot up, then freeze after about 1-2 minutes of use and repeat the whole process. This was on stock 4.4.2. I've since tried using the toolkit to reflash stock, fix bootloop, unlock and root...all of which I was able to do. None of which helped my issue. Although flashing AOKP DID seem to fix it for about an hour.
Anyway, I gave up on it for about a week and came back to it this morning. Although it wasn't even going to te google boot animation, just stuck on the google logo. So I reflashed stock 4.4.2 again. Now I'm back to square 1. So it boots and will function for maybe about a minute or 2 (or less) before freezing and rebooting.
Is this device shot? I'm out of Google AND ASUS warranty now
I posted something in the big help thread yesterday (probably a mistake). Mine is doing exactly what you describe in terms of working for about 2 minutes before freezing, then rebooting. Mine is 100% stock 4.4.2. Never rooted, unlocked, etc. I have the adb stuff, but I haven't even attempted anything, because it seems so unstable. I don't want a partial flash to screw it up even worse. I feel slightly better knowing that someone else is dealing with exactly the same thing in a similar time frame, so maybe it is a software thing, not a totally dead unit.
Well I may have made some progress. Since the warrenty is up anyway, I decided to crack it open. I noticed the GPU was getting extremely hot for just sitting at the home screen. So I enabled developer options and turned on some monitoring options (the fact that it stayed on long enough to do this is a miracle in itself).
Right now I have some overlay monitoring on including cpu usage and gpu rendering (on screen as lines). I also checked the "stay awake" while charging option. It's been on about 2 minutes so far, although graphics performance is horrible atm. Almost like project butter is disabled and it's running at half power....that could just be the monitoring overlay though. We'll see what happens...
*Update*
It made it 21 minutes, but it did reboot again. On restart, the OS smoothness is back to normal, and it does seem like it goes longer stretches without restarting now, however the issue is obviously still there. I should add that the back cover is currently off. which is starting to make me think this has to do with cooling

Okay....I just admitted defeat with this issue. Just ordered a replacement board for $30 because the resets are still happening. Upon reset, I can actually hear a part of the main board buzzing for about 5 seconds (not the speakers). Not to mention that prior to this issue, I was having a lot of wifi connectivity issues anyway. Hopefully the board arrives before my long bus ride to new york...

Random Reboots

I'm having random reboots. I'm running 5.1.1 rooted but stock rom. Sometimes it's 12 hours until a reboot, other times it's a week or more, but I get no indication that it reboots, I just find my phone at the screen waiting for the encryption password to boot up, missing who knows how many calls.
Any idea how I can fix this issue? It randomly developed in the past month without any changes on my end.
Thanks!

Phone reboots randomly, and with certain apps.

I've used 2 different ROMS, AOSP extended and Pure Nexus. I've tried using custom kernels and with the default one that comes with the ROM. I've tried going into safe mode. But my phone still randomly reboots. I found that it restarts much more often when I open the Google Maps App, and sometimes camera app too.
Unlike other people, the phone can stay on for a long time if I don't touch it and just keep it in my pocket; it doesn't reboot.
Is it a software or hardware problem? Is it because I am trying to use Android 7 on it?
My phone rebooted during two consecutive nights, a few days ago. It happened between 6 and 7 in the morning, while the phone was lying on my desk, in flight mode. I always put my phone (and previous phones) in flight mode when I go to sleep. Battery usage showed how long ago the reboot took place. The first time my battery was drained from 50% to 20%, second time it didn't (stayed around 80%). I made a TWRP backup, and planned to restore a backup from a few weeks back. Due to lack of time I didn't do that. The reboots didn't happen after that.
The first reboot was after I installed GlassWIre in the afternoon. I uninstalled it after the first reboot. So far I have no idea what caused the reboots.
My phone is on stock 6.1 with january 2017 security patches, and is rooted.
This is a weird one.
No problems until I switched my SIM out (went to a different carrier) and since then any app that tried to access the GPS causes a reboot.
Read that I should change my APN type to "default,mms" so I did so and rebooted, have not had any issue since.

nexus 4 randomally shuts off?

have an old nexus 4 i wanted to try fixing a few issues with so i could keep using it as a backup phone.
It likes to sometimes not wake up from stand by. i'll go to use it and the screen won't wake up and it is hard to get to reboot but eventually does then works fine for a bit then repeat. Sometimes even when the battery is fully charged i could go to sleep one night wake up in the morning and it's like it just randomally shut down and is sometimes hard to start other times not, but always has to fresh boot.
not sure what the issue is.
i have re flashed OEM roms in the past to try and fix the issue, and ofc it just updates to 5.1.1
>< all help appreciated.
probably battery issue

It's probably battery. Does the phone shut down on charge?
I have same issue and I don't think that it's something wrong with the battery, because I already changed the battery and nexus 4 still freezes sometimes. And it's looks like freeze, not regular shuted down phone, because it's hard to wake up after that happens.
I read somewhere that this may be issue with internal memory, but I'm not sure about it.

Had same issue running on stock 5.1.1 or something like this. Shut downs, reboot, frozen screen, donĀ“t wake up, start problems, networking complete breakdowns.......installed Lineage 15.1 official and no such issues so far.
So it might be Android related.
So best thing, unlock bootloader by Nexustoolkit, flash latest custom recovery TWRP (you have to flash an older version first, if not having TWRP allready) and then install Lineage 15.1 official. Use instructions provided by XDA. It might be dropped, but it runs great.
