[Q] HELP! TF300T constantly rebooting - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been very happy with this tablet for almost a year, its been virtually trouble free. But all of a sudden (after a week of vacation using another house's wifi all week) I get home and my tablet is in constant reboot mode the last 3 days at home and work. (Android 4.1.1, Build 10.4.2.18-20121122, unrooted, basically out of the box).
I did a factory reset this morning, and it doesn't seem to have fixed the problem. It's even rebooting before I've reinstalled all my apps, so it doesn't seem to be a bad app?
Any others experiencing this and any suggestions?
Thanks

If you HAVEN'T had a reboot...

Post your uptime here. Settings -> About Phone -> Status -> Up Time
e.g. 16:48:10
22:31:15 since I rebooted it for clockwork.

I reboot manually daily.
Longest uptime I've had is 30hours. I then rebooted it myself because I had uninstalled a bunch of T-Mo apps. Since then it's been up now 17hrs without a hitch.
I reboot mine once a day manually.
I did have 1 random reboot the other day when answering a call though.
I show 51.36.15 right now. I manually rebooted once since I got the phone looking for where to put in my SD card. Otherwise, all good so far.
As of this post i'm at 68:01 but I did reboot because my battery was draining kinda fast and I just wanted to reboot the device to see if it would affect it in any way.
My friend is on his 2nd G2x (because of the reboot) and his new one rebooted when we were at the movies (the same day i rebooted mine)
knock on wood that my unit is fine.
I haven't had a single reboot til today. none all week.
Now I've had 4 in a row. All while trying to update apps in the market. I had about 15 to update.. It has rebooted 4 times on me.. LAME!
I have no reboot's and current up time 93:05:45.
have wifi working. and battery last most of the day with 2-3 hours music while at work phone calls web surfing, just exporing the phone most of the time. bluetooth currenlty on all day conected to my headset.
have you updated any large apps in the market.
I've now had 5 reboots all in under about 15 minutes on my G2x.. it is stock, rooted. All while in the market, all while trying to update a few larger apps. Hm, something is wrong that is for sure.
time for paul's patch?
Im at 21:28. Never had a reboot. Last reboot for a flash (deoxt? fix).

A few questions:
1) Are you rooted?
2) Did you use the patch?
3) Have you done a factory reset?
4) Have you altered the *#*#4636#*#* and/or network settings?
Thanks!
Only had my replacement phone since monday. No reboots yet. Never had one on the one before either.

I had no reboots on my first phone either..
you guys without issues, have you updated multiple apps from market?
No reboots here.
Rooted with ClockWorkMod. Last boot for deoxt patch.
26:37:45
48:50:29 for me never had a reboot. I was having the phone shut off while charging overnight, but took off my speck candyshell and it seems to be fixed. I assume the problem was shutdown to prevent overheating. I am not rooted yet and i did a factory reset when i first got the phone because the tmobile rep skipped the settup. I hope this helps

I've not had any issues and have updated multiple apps from the market.

Sent from my Intel Quad Core Ultra Super Amoled Plus NEC Nemesis...its a custom device.
No reboots since I disabled GPS.

Uptime is 122 hours 10 minutes. Have had zero problems out of the box.
No root, no factory resets, no messing with anything. Out of the box stock.
I love this phone!

Tablet isn't waking up from a sleep

After a short period of time when the tablet sleeps it hardly ever wakes when I tap the power button. This issue only started a couple of days ago and seems to have gotten worse after today's update and I have owned the tablet since launch. Sometimes it will wake up right away, sometimes it takes a few clicks and other times it won't wake up until I reboot. The camera's firmware wouldn't update today either it kept staying that there was an error during install, but it did so after I shutdown the tablet and kept it off for several hours. I have tried several cold boots and cache wipes and even did a factory reset. Yet the problem persists.
Anyone have any ideas?
I've had this problem too, but I haven't been able to pinpoint the issue yet. I'm working on isolating the issue by disabling apps that are running in the background one by one until I see the problem go away.

Yea, the thing is, it did it for me after a factory reset.

I had this issue when low on battery with brightness all the way down, was able to resolve by plugging it into the keydock (plugging just the power did nothing)

Thanks for the suggestion, but that's one of the first things I tried. It did seem to work in the beginning but doesn't now. And I usually keep my battery above 40% and brightness just below 50%.

I had these problems as well when playing spotify and screen went in sleep mode.
Then after a couple of days it started doing it with or without spotify playing in the background...
Have you tried disabling WiFi sleep?
Hey,
I had this problem for over a month. Tried factory reset, tried cold boot. Wifi settings didn't help, build.prop tweaks didn't help.
I pretty much lost any hope and just waited for a Jelly'oh'Bean.
Well, in the meantime, there was a .30 update.
I wanted to prepare my tab for it and restored an original build.prop, did a temporary unroot.
What I did wrong, was to restore a wrong build.prop and i wasn't able to boot anymore.
Only option I had left was to manually update the tab with .26 update with SD card.
I have also wiped everything.
Of course I didn't have any backup.
So, fresh installation so to speak, without titanium backup restores.
Next day the .30 update came and i applied it, but I installed apps from market, not from backup.
Since than, I didn't had a wake-up problem again!
So, my recommendation is (i know there is some work to be done, but it worked for me), wipe, update, install from market.
I am pretty sure one of the apps is playing a dirty game!
Hope it helps.

[Q] Lumia 810 started rebooting

This phone started rebooting frequently about 30 hours ago. Sometimes it won't power back on right away. Being plugged in makes no difference. It's sometimes rebooted mid-boot. Am on the PFD program. Haven't seen an update applied for at least a few days before this started happening. No new apps. I went through a factory reset earlier today but it's continued to happen in the last few hours. Any bright ideas what I could try at this point?

You can try the hard reset.
You can also try reflash your Hardware Product Code (= origin ROM) with Nokia Software Recovery Tool software.
Careful: The two methods will remove your personal data.
It seems like it's worked itself out. It was happening for about 4 days. I restarted on my own (independent of its frequent self-reboots), factory reset it, pulled battery, tried everything I could and it kept rebooting, until it just kind of stopped. I have no idea what was going on.

I have something similar. I have Lumia 830. With Windows Update 8.1 Update 2. My Reboots are random:
* Sometimes reboots constantly for about 10-15mins.
* Sometimes few reboots and full startup of system.
* Sometimes using for different time periods, it reboots.

Constantly rebooting

For about 5 months my phone will randomly restart. It doesn't seem to have any rhyme or reason as to what app I'm using when it does it. It started just once in a while, then a few times a week, to every day and then multiple times a day. About 3 months ago I cleared the cache as my first "fix." Didn't work. About 1.5 months ago, I hard reset my phone, but restored my settings. I thought that worked, but less than a week later, the rebooting started again. So then last Thurs, I hard reset and did NOT restore any settings and basically set my phone up from scratch. the next day, my phone reboot, and every day since and today when I woke up my phone on the charger was off and wouldn't turn on (with 100% battery on the screen) until I essentially "soft reset" it. It has since rebooted 2 more times today.
I have a lot of apps on my phone, many that aren't used regularly. Booting into safe mode is the last suggestion ATT had but how in the hell do I figure out what is causing the problem??? Also, has anyone else had this issue and waht was the reason and solution?

Question The phone shuts down suddenly. Maybe be overheating, because it seems to keep working if it is in supersaving battery mode. Factory reset did not help

The phone shuts down suddenly. Maybe be overheating, because it seems to keep working if it is in supersaving battery mode. Factory reset did not help. Screen was changed 3 months ago. The latest update was installed 10 days ago. The day before problems the phone was a bit wet in my pocket due to rain.
The battery is changing well , at least it seems so.
I was thinking to try installing older ROM (assuming update is causing problems). Or changing battery (as this is one of main problems mentioned on YouTube, although those videos are only on languages I don't speak, mainly from India).
Before doing the factory reset I noticed that the phone would not turn off by itself While I was playing music, that was really strange, and this made me thinking that reset could help.
