Tab starts, then stucked at lock-screen and then randomly-auto-restarts - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so i'm getting this weird error :S, after fixing other problems i started installing some apps, everything fine.
after installing around 30 apps (not big ones, around 3mb each, only 3 o4 are like 40mb) i found that my tablet got reeeeeeeeeeeeeally slow at startup, it starts, then it freezes and the it takes like 10 minutes or more to respond (please ignore the random restart title, i thought it was auto-restarting but now i see that i was restarting it annd because of the freezing it took like 2 minutes to respond to my previous "force-reboot" and so i was thinking it was not my reboot but an auto-reboot.
EDIT: i decided to let the tablet alone to see if it restarts or anything and after like 10 minutes o more it sudenly comes back to normal, and i find out becuase i hear the whistle from my email inbox and then it is all normal again but that wasn't happening, could it be all because of the load of apps? i think 5 or more minutes freezed is too much, is there a way to check what's being loaded at startup?

Stock ROM: crash / reboot every 9 days 9 hrs 30 min

My stock ROM crashes (or auto-reboots) every 9 days 9 hrs 30min like a clock.
It happened for at least third time in a row, or most likely it is going on like this all the time because I only noticed this odd behavior when I installed a little "uptime" app. After 3 times obviously that's not coincidence, something is causing my phone to crash or reboot every 9d 9hrs 30min.
Has anyone else notice or had same problem?
Stock rom, locked/unrooted, with stock apps and very few extra apps installed, after previous crash I removed almost everything I had installed in the past, I kept only AirDroid, ColReader, Google Drive, File Manager, Mobo player, Skype, SPB TV, TeamViewer - nothing else, yet it still crashed. I can't figure out is it ROM or any of the apps.
edit - perhaps I should have posted in ROM development... Moderator, please move it?
I wish I could help but I've never been able to stay on the stock ROM for that long.
But....no, you've posted in the right place. Put it in developement and it'll get moved to HERE.
There's a TMobile app on there that monitors the days until suggested reboot (7 days) and will then proceed to "warn" you consistently when you're over that period. It is possible that this app is clashing with one of your other apps or doing something in the phone - maybe using too much memory? /shrug
My phone does the exact same thing after a week but it doesn't reboot, it just randomly "soft-crashes" after I hit the back or home key while playing a game or backing out of dialer, apps, etc.
It's extremely annoying and happens whether I have few apps or my normal stock of apps; the only time it doesn't happen at all is after a factory reset (if I don't update anything).
The only thing I can do to stop it is to reboot the phone, as suggested on the 7th day...as soon as I see that notification, I reboot and so far so good.
Good Luck.

Random Reboots - Jelly Bean or Hardware Problem?

First thank you for reading my long post. Any help would be appreciated.
I have random reboots issue,
I updated to Jelly Bean the first day my tablet arrived, so i do not know if this is because of Jelly Bean or hardware problem. I need to know the cause so i can decide whether return it and get a replacement or not.
Sometimes it does not reboot at all, but sometimes (or usually i'd say) it reboots a lot, like every 2 minutes. Sometimes it reboots every 30 minutes. Well it's just random.
After doing factory resets and cold boots with no luck, I figured out why it reboots: If it's doing something "heavy" (like loading a webpage, syncing emails, loading games, installing apps,...) and I touch the screen many times (say 5 times) while it's doing these "heavy" things it will reboot.
Why do i need to touch the screen many times while it's loading,... Because for example: you load a webpage, while loading you scroll down to see the content of the webpage, but because the browser is slow, you feel like you need to touch again, and that causes it to reboot automatically. I also do another test: It was installing Amazon Appstore, while installing, i touch the screen many times, and the reboot happened.
Factory resets or cold boots will not help. it's just like that, i think it's supposed to force close or something, but it doesn't, it just reboots. I tried to treat it "gently" (i wait until the loading is finished, then i scroll down webpage,... and i don't touch the screen when it's loading), it did not reboot. But sometimes it do what i expect too (show force close, wait message).
Is this a jelly bean problem or hardware problem? Can anyone test this? Should I return my tablet and get a replacement? (I guess if i get a replacement i won't install JB, that would be safer lol)
Agree with the above. Replace it asap. I cant remember my tablet ever rebooting
ok since yesterday it "only" rebooted 4 times, probably because i "treated gently" most of the time, and of course the times it rebooted were the times i touched the screen a lot.
so i'm returning it. now there's a question in my head: should i return it and get a refund, then buy another tablet, (or maybe wait until another tablet come out) or just get a replacement? i'm just thinking this is a $400 tablet, is it too expensive NOW? (looks like everything in tech is getting cheaper lol [like the nexus 7 or kindle fire hd, maybe ipad mini too])

Nexus 5 dead?

Forenote, my N5 was running PSX v2 and Franco Kernel r13 flawlessly for weeks when this ramdomly happened.
Used my phone today just as I have for weeks on end with little to no issue until around 8 or 9 hours into my day the phone started to lag very badly. Redraws, stutter, unresponsiveness, you name it. I was surprised as this phone usually flies! So I cleared my recent apps and that seemed to help slightly, but it still was very slow. I used cache cleaner's built in ram cleaner to stop all running processes (which I never do) and it seemed like the issue was fixed. The system UI and launcher redrew and I was good to go.
Until I started to play some music in Play Music, a pop up constantly popped up that YouTube has stopped working. I didn't even use YouTube today! I tried to then open the YouTube app and it wouldn't open whatsoever. No animation no execution, just a dialog box reading, "Unfortunately, YouTube has stopped working." I went into app settings and cleared cache/data/and force stopped and the app still was misbehaving. I reinstalled the app via the play store and it still wouldn't open. The dialog box wouldn't stop popping up this whole time mind you.
I was thinking what the hell is wrong with my phone today!? Maybe a reboot would fix things. I tried rebooting and my phone got stuck at boot animation. I force shut off and rebooted into recovery, formatted cache and dalvik cache and rebooted. This time the boot animation actually froze.. I was like what the f***! I let it sit for a few minutes to see if anything would happen without any luck.
I force shut off again and now the phone won't even turn on. Not into bootloader, not normally, the thing won't even charge! So here I am with a dead phone and a $450 paperweight. I'm just so lost I have no idea what could've caused this really unusual sequence of events.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
A bad phone. Rma it
Was the phone hot when the weird things happened?

Nothing seemed out of the ordinary temperature wise.. Although my phone has overheated and shut off before that was maybe 2-3 weeks ago..

Galaxy S7 Edge Weird Issue

Does anyone have a issue where the mobile sometimes performs some operations delayed. Like for example:
1. When I click check for updates in settings menu the menu doesn't popup instantly it pops up after like 30 min.
2. Cannot send messages same issue messages are sent after 30 min.
3. Same thing with Google Play updates, they get downloaded and get stuck on installing(they do get installed after some time like 30-45 min)
I already tried resetting the OS and it worked good for a few days and same issue popped up.
Should I replace the device?

My Mi note 10 lite is stuck at reboot screen after google play system update restart

I had a notification that a Google Play system update requires the phone to be restarted in order to complete the update. So i did. I clicked restart now. Now my phone is stuck and is still at the reboot screen with miui logo for almost 2 hours now. What should I do? My battery percentage before i clicked restart was bout 90 percent still. It happened twice this week now. The same case happened. But on the first time that it got stuck, i restarted the phone for 3 times till it got past the boot screen. When i checked the settings, i was in android 11 but it was problematic because i cannot toggle the chat heads of messenger anymore. The chat bubbles feature also keeps on crashing. That's why i thought that maybe it was because i did not let it finish on its own. A day after that, i got the notification again, so i restarted and decided to wait for it to finish. and here i am now, still waiting for almost 2 hours already. Has this happened to anyone before as well? What should i do?
Same thing happened to me too.
Not just this my phone was stuck for 1.5 hours on the MIUI screen during the first firmware update as well and I had to reboot. After a couple of reboots it started up fine.
Now whenever I try to reboot for Google Play system update it gets stuck on MI screen.
Anyone figured out what should be done here?
Same thing happened to me too.
did anyone figure out what's happening ?
