Random Restarts - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Just wondered if anyone else has experienced random Restarts with their S7?
Mine has restarted without warning about 3 times, then the last 2 nights it's frozen completely then restarted.
I've read that the only way to fix this is to do a factory reset. But no where states what the problem actually is. Should I be worried?

I was getting really bad random reboots. Phone just sitting there and rebooting every few minutes.
Checked for an update, took it. Problem gone now.

I spoke to the retailer that I got the phone from and swapped my handset for a new one earlier today. Hopefully no more random restarts

On Italian forums a lot of people is experiencing random reboots with both flat and edge. I guess high leaking chips with too low voltage

In france too
sous GS7

Getting it every day in middle night, seen it only once but notice every morning because i have to type my pin instead of fingerprint. S7 snapdragon variant.

I had those resets when I bought memory card. Formating SD card from my phone helped. No more resets since.

Yea, no sd card here. Im going to chat up samsung about it later

Sorry to bring this thread up from dormant. I'm using G930A running 7.0. I bought this phone used and I have already experienced 3 reboots. In first 2 times, the screen freezes and I see corrupted, noise image where the top status bar was. The phone rebooted after 10s or so. The 3rd freeze/restart is right after the 2nd restart, when I was entering PIN.
Has anyone experienced restart with phone freezing and corrupted status bar? I need to decide if I should return the phone.

Data keeps stalling

Hello, I have searched around but I haven't found anyone reporting this particular issue nor one similar enough to troubleshoot on my own based on those solutions.
I recently began noticing that I was experiencing an issue where data LTE/hspa appears connected, but no information is transmitted. If I put airplane mode off and then back on, data reconnects and all is fine until it happens again. This is occurring multiple times per day.
I am running cataclysm ROM with Franco #40 right now.
Any help would be much appreciated.

are you undervolted?
I did not attempt to undervolt so unless Franco is doing that automatically, which I am inclined to believe it is not, I do not believe so.

I've seen it happen on occasion. The only thing I would suggest is trying stock to see if you can reproduce.

i have tmobile as well, and had that happening to me several weeks ago. it started happening suddenly, was like that for several weeks, and stopped happening just as sudden. i think it might be an issue with tmo, or something that they are doing. anyways, putting it in airplane mode then back always fixed it for me when it did happen.
Good to know. I will call them if it continues.

Also with t mobile and had this issue suddenly start about two weeks ago. Very annoying. I do the airplane mode trick to get it working. Where are you located? I'm in Sacramento, ca

no.
bars dont turn orange, and a connection is shown. data just stops flowing. turning on airplane mode then back fixes it every time.
Same thing
I am on Metro PCS (t-mobile) and have the same issue as others. Weird thing is I only noticed after activating a replacement Nexus 5 I just received. Can't say I remember seeing this so frequently on the original (wasn't paying as close of attention though).
Probably just something up with t-mobile. Might try reflashing the radios. My original Nexus 5 updated via OTAs where as the replacement came with the 4.4.2 stock image pre installed.

wont activate?

anyone else having this?
it has been trying to activate for 6 hours now, just keeps re-trying
probably just so many are trying to activate right now but i have bought release day phones the last few years in a row and never had this
Mine did that all day. Once I got home and left it alone to charge for a bit, it went through a few boots and finished. I wouldn't worry about it.

They actually sent me home from the store before I noticed it. A couple of reboots today fixed it, but then it just proceeded to download all the Sprint bloatware and compleatly hosed my home screen setup. After that the "activation not complete" notice went away.

Random reboots after update

I've just applied the incremental update to my opo.
Since then I'm getting lots of random reboots. 3 a day that I'm aware of.
Anyone else getting this? Is there a fix?
The phone is totally stock and uprooted.

I've seen a few people mention this. Unless you know the cause you can't fix it. Have you looked at your last_kmseg?

Well there is an update.
I am livid.
My phone random rebooted today and on reboot factory reset itself. I have lost everything. SMS Whatsapp chats & photos and now need to spend 2 hours setting it up again.
Why are these muppets releasing updates that aren't stable???

I get them, also. I usually know because I am prompted for my swiping pattern due to a restart.
Has only happened to me when phone is locked.

Are you using a case? Sometimes the case is actually the issue if its pushing down on the powerbutton itself
otherwise try doing a fresh install using samsung smart switch, if you still get those reboots then swap it out for a new device
