Hey,
Has anyone have more trouble with there phone restarting?? Never had a problem with this until yesterday and today. Today restarting by its self about 15 times....
i have tryed using other battery but still does it with different one in...
I have noticed this to a point. After installing a ROM (currently Bionix2) and getting it set up, the phone runs great for about a week or two. At that point I get a reboot or a SOD every once in a while. I just do a CWM backup, wipe everything (factory reset, dalvik, battery stats, etc.) and restore the backup I just created. Seems to give me another week or so of no problems. Not sure why but it seems to work for me.
Hi,
Got my phone a week back..The problem started to occur a few days ago,my phone started to freeze often.Touchscreen stopped responding.I had to remove the battery n boot to get the phone working again.
I look forward to seeing your replies. Please feel free to ask me further details . Happy New Year.Thanks in advance
Have you tried calling the fone when this happens? I'm interested if this is the same problem as with mine....
I've also had the touchscreen freeze out a couple of times but that's usually after an app has crashed or I've stressed the system, I find that locking then unlocking the scren brings it back to life

I don't want to be a negative person here but mine started like that, I though it was just because the system was running too many apps or I haven't freed the ram. It's now shutting off by itself.
I hope yours don't progress to my problem.
Such a nice fone but these problems make me think otherwise.
Have u found out any solutions .

I thought ^ was one of the GB's features. shuts down rogue or non responsive apps.
@venkatraman did u try factory reset??
take a backup from CWM if you havent already and make a reset from there...
Tell me if that works...if doesnt that clear all the Ram from Task Manager

I already factory reset by pressing vol up+power then middle button. The thing is, my problem is not really freezing screen but auto shutdown.

Factory reset didnt help either..It works for a while and the problem repeats all over again
A phone with this much memory and dual core CPU shouldn't behave like this.
sometimes when you move your finger to the screen as close as possible without touching though...it can cause freezings.
I had the same problem. Initially the phone used to freeze and I used to remove and replace the battery again. But then the phone started crashing and it reached a point today where the phone would freeze upon booting at Samsung screen. I held the VolumeUP+Home button while booting and did a "Wipe cache" and its been working fine since.
Cheers!
Yep, it seems a common issue. Mine does the same. I haven't flashed any custom ROMs or kernel after I got it from service just to see if it was the problem. But it started shutting down by itself a couple of days ago with increasing frequency. I removed all recently added apps + juice defender and others that may be messing with the hardware with no change.
P.S. I have to take out and replace the battery to restart it, and there is always a battery drain afterwards.
Hi,
After I did a 'wipe cache' in recovery, my phone didnt crash for one full day. Now again it has started crashing at random.
Kindly note that its been 2 months since i bought the phone and there were no problems with it.. But few days back there was not power and hence my mobile got switched off due to battery drain.. And from the next day onwards this problem has started.
Any of you guys think its a battery issue? - battery calibration issue perhaps? Should i perform a 'wipe battery stats' in recovery?
Kindly advice.
Thanks.
Didn't work for me, I wiped dalvik cache and battery stats and it worked fine for a couple of days, but then i shut down again. I'm going for factory reset next.
BTW mine shuts down only when the screen is off, never while I'm using it.
@reymysterio7 do you get battery drain after?
Yeah mate. There was significant battery drain. Right now I've done a factory reset-flashed 2.3.6 austria-flashed titanium v2.1-wipe cache/dalvik cache-wipe battery stats. Keeping my fingers crossed

UPDATE : My phone started its random shut downs again. But one thing Ive figured for sure is that it happens only when the network signal is low or fluctuating.

no need to clear the dalvik cache, just clear the cache and do factor rest it may help you and check the recent application which you have installed and remove them..

Yeah i was using go launcher.. Now ive formatted everything.. including usb memory... and flashed stock firmware I9103XWKI5.. Its as good as a new 1st day phone now... Even now if it shutsdown then its definitely not a software issue..

It shut down again - When signal became low!! - When i rebooted, again it shutdown while connecting to network. I removed sim and booted it worked fine. Then i went outdoors and booted with sim, it did not shutdown.
It definitely not a software issue coz I had formatted EVERYTHING and the phone was as good as new. Its not battery issue coz phone does not have issues without sim inserted. Its either hardware (motherboard probably) or SIM card problem.. I'm gonna get a new sim on monday and check it.. This sucks!!!
UPDATE : I tried with other sim - it still shutdown after 10 mins I used my present sim on a S2 and it worked fine...
UPDATE - ISSUE RESOLVED : I took it to the service center, the issue was a faulty USB connector. They replaced it and the issue seems to have been resolved. For more have a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24263158#post24263158
Hi
I have a problem with my Galaxy S2 where it's in a constant reboot loop and the only way to stop it is by taking the battery out.
I'm sure that if I do a factory reset it'll go back to normal.
The problem is, I can't back anything up because as soon as the phone boots up it restarts.
Is there ANY other way to back up my photos and videos etc?
I have NOT rooted the phone
Cannot find any solutions online
I'm currently having this problem too. A couple of days ago it kept rebooting in a loop. I took the battery out and left it for a while, then let it charge. It seemed okay afterwards. Now today it keeps rebooting, and the past couple of days it has refused to charge the battery because apparently the battery was "too hot or too cold" (don't quote me on that) so I'm very confused. Just now though the battery was about half-charged and it still went into the reboot loop.
Something else you should know is that like the OP it has the stock OS on. It isn't rooted or modified. I don't want to factory reset it because I have spent so much time customising it (with apps) and it would be a pain in the ass if the problem still existed afterwards. One thing I must ask the OP is, did you recently get a 64GB MicroSDXC card for your S2? I ask this because I did a couple of weeks ago and it's been working fantastically and was said to work fine with the S2, but I'd like to explore any possible reason this reboot loop is happening.
Thanks.
Edit: To confirm I deleted the cache and this didn't help. I don't want to hard reset...
I've just done a factory reset - I hadn't realised that it only affects my apps and not my files.
The phone is ok now.
I am facing a strange situation where in my note 3 restarts automatically while charging. The restart happens after a while say after 15-20 minutes of charging. I am using this awesome device for past 4 months and this problem started occurring some 3 weeks back. The device does not restart on it's own in any other scenario. Pls help. I tried as mentioned in many tips over the internet i.e. removing battery, sd card then restarted the phone and unchecked allow Wifi scanning but no luck.
Are you on a stock Rom and Kernel?
if you are on anything other than stock, flash a stock Odin firmware, and see if it still occurs. But this does sound like a hardware problem if you are on stock. tried any other batteries? what temp is your battery whilst charging, anything abnormal? also are you using the stock cable and charger.

it happened on my friend's device before with a custom rom, after flashing another rom the problem's gone
Hi, i am using [ROM][N][NOTE 8 UX][BUILD 3.0][GENISYS XPERIENCE][J700F/H/M] build 3.0
today i woke up to see my phone freezing at the home screen, it restarted and when the home screen appeared i could do like 2 moves then it freezed and restarted, kept doing it alot, i could stop it by pulling the battery off. i tried to use the phone without a battery (charger only) and the same happened.
One time i could use the phone for like 2 minutes without restarting or freezing then it happened, thought it was battery problem cuz usually when the battery is 40% the phone restarts and the battery becomes empty in like 2 minutes (happened months ago, i flashed the rom since 7 months ago).
when i open twrp the phone works fine there so i thought it was software problem, i wiped everything then installed a clean version of the same rom and the problem disappeared, i also think the battery doesn't turn off at 40% now but it's like a new one, can anyone please tell me what the hell happened !? i want to know what was my enemy which wasted hours of my precious time!!! and i want to avoid that in the future, notic that if i restore backup i did before wiping everything, restoring the system alone works, if i restore the data the same problem happens so it's data problem.
:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
please help me, i did a full wipe when the problem happened to me 2 weeks ago and installed the same rom and everything went good, and now after 2 weeks the same damn problem happened!! i can't do this anymore it takes too much time pls help
