Ok so it is like this:
I bought my galaxy r here in sweden 1 year and 3 months ago, it was working perfectly for around 1 year.
At the one year mark i started to have some problems with the touchscreen where the phone would feel a pressure in the middle of the screen, to get rid of this i simply locked and unlocked the phone or rubbed a bit with a cloth on the screen.
Recently when I saw there was a cm10.1 rom with nightlies I rooted my phone and later installed the cm10.1 rom. Now the most anoying thing. I have a problem with my battery where the phone just shuts down randomly (mostly when playing games) even though it sometimes have up too 80% battery remaining. Then when I restart the phone it usually have 0% battery left and therefore shuts itself down again, sometimes it restarts with just a 20-30% batteryloss. This have occured more often recently and it shuts itself of 3-4 times a day. I can't remember if it was like this when i was on stock, before I started to flash and root, but i think it was.
A few days ago i flashed stock ics from odin and I confirmed that both of these problems still were there, so i have hard to belive that it is the modding of the software that have caused this.
Do you guys have any suggestions to how i can be able to use my phone normally again?
Im just a poor student so i don't want to waste money on a new phone after just 1 year :/

It may be help you but first tell me, are you restoring data from titanium backup or something related to that..??
Also if you want to take backup then take it using Super backup application.

Nope, im not takeing backup of anything.
And one other thing i forgot to mention earlier, the phone now also thinks it is charging itself evrn when it is not. It think the usb cable is still connected.
I hope OP doesn't mind that I'm joining his thread, I'm experiencing the same problems on my gfs phone and don't know what to do.
I just installed the fresh CM 10.1 nightlies (did Cache/Data/Dalvik Wipe) and she is experiencing pretty much the same problems:
After 1 or 2 hours of unplugging the phone gets stuck and shuts down. After restarting the battery percentage is pretty low and the phone shuts down again (even if the battery says ~10%). The battery percentage then changes every restart, but is always between 0 and 20%. The phone is barely usable in this state :/
I couldn't wipe the SD card (.android_secure) because the swapped paths, could this be related?
Thank you in advance!

It shouldn't be happened. But if u are feeling so, just flash any stock GB using odin v1.87. Then just wipe all data and cache. Install cm10.1 over that using method 2.

I'm definitely going to try this, but as it seems now i think it is more about a faulty battery/hardware that software?
Or have these kind of problems been fixed software before?
One other thing, if i have rooted my device, does the root dissappear when i flash stockrom using odin?

May be hardware or software too..when you will vanish all data & cache then Software issue may be gone but if problem still persist, means you have hardware problem.
Also, root will be lost after flashing Stock ROM from ODIN.
I'm able to also confirm, that Procedure II didn't help the problem. I really doubt it is a hardware fault, because of us two having the exact same problem after flashing the same rom.
@Dippn: Do you know which nightly build you used? In my case it was the nightly build "20130405". Also could you check which baseband you are on? (Under About Phone -> Baseband Version) Over here we have i9103NEKI1
The only special thing we did I can think of is flashing a modem file (when we were still on the unofficial cm10.1 without these kind of problems, but massive battery drain), because there was a call problem going on for customers of the austrian provider 3 and CM10.1.
I could analyse the problem a bit more today: It seems as soon as the phone gets busy (for example from the browser loading pages or in DippN's case processing a game), the touch screen gets unresponsive and everything starts to lag and delay or freezes completely until it shuts down the phone. Could be either CPU or RAM related, I guess. I just wonder what caused this, even if the nightly had a faulty kernel, this should be fixed as soon as we flash another ROM, right?
I will be able to try a different ROM on monday. It would be great, if you could report, if the downgrade to GB helped the issue. I'd like to try a different baseband, if you are on the same right now too.
Greetings and thank you so much for trying to help us, vikesh!

Well, we are not on the same baseband. I'm on I9103XXLQ3.
About the cm verison im not quiet sure, the latest i flashed was "20130406" but since the problem were there the time before that when i flashed cm I cant answer exacly but i have a cm version "20130305" on my desktop and it could be that one that I used.
I never used cm before it was on nightlies so the modem file flashing i dont know anything about.
The thing you mention about that it shuts of when the phone gets busy and touchscreen gets unresponsive I can kind of confirm too.
I will flash GB now, will report back in an hour how it went.

Are you sure i should do it using v1.87?
I'm having problems finding it and v1.85 seems to be in everyones links.

Flashed GB using v1.85 and now I am stuck in bootloop, after 10 sec at the samsung logo it restarts and repeat. >.>
When the phone restarted after the flash and after it says "-updating application" it says:
Installing Multi-CSC
Can't access to '/system/csc/NEE/system/'.
Successfully applied multi-CSC.
I have no idea what this means but could it mean anything?
EDIT: I got it to start by wipe cache and data. (thought i should do that when cwm was installed)
Unfortunately already in the startup options when u write wifi password the touchscreen became very unresponsive and when i after a few min had succeded writing the password the phone shut of when it tried to connect to it! :,(
I can also confirm that it still thinks it is charing when it is not becuase the symbol in the statusbar flicked from battery to charging symbol.
Is there anything else softwarerelated that I can do?

Wipe data again.. If possible after wiping data Just reflash the GB.
Hey, XDA-ers!
I got the Android Nougat 7.0 update for my Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930FD (DUOS) back in January if I remember correctly. And the update process went like how it normally does. But ever since I got the Nougat update, my phone restarts randomly for no reason. At first it used to restart when I click on the 'Recent Apps' button to switch between apps. When I tap on the button, the phone vibrates and restarts. The phone never over heated before this happens. During this, the phone used to restart 2-3 times a day. This went on for 2 months. Then now, the number of restarts reduced to 1-2 per day, but the problem still persists. And now, it restarts even when I don't touch the 'Recent Apps' button. So, if any of you has had a similar experience or if any of you could help me out Please share it here. It would be GREAT!
Also just one more thing- Any of you seen any DRASTIC or worse changes in battery life of your Galaxy S7 after the Android Nougat 7.0 update? Please share your thoughts here and do suggest how you solved the problem. (My battery drains so fast that I sometimes charge it twice a day. I don't even use my phone for half of the day because I'll be at school and still the battery drain is bad! )
Factory reset. Backup your data via kies and then reset it.
Change your battery
What firmware version are you running? There's at least one version of Nougat that has issues with this

Hey man!?
The screen shot attached has my software info. Check it out and tell me if it's one of the versions with the problem.
Thanks!
Hmm... and after the factory reset with no apps installed you are still rebooting?
Why dont you try to reflash your firmware via odin.
Download it from sammobile and reflash it.

Possibly. I can vouch for it being fixed on DQCF onwards, which is newer than DQC4. The temporary fix seems to be to use as little RAM as possible(try to cut down on background apps until the next update). That firmware isn't terribly old though. I would actually agree with trying a reflash first.

I think it is also possible to reinstall the same firmware with Smart Switch from the menu "Emergency Software Recovery and Initialisation". It's like Odin but much simpler especially for beginners. As for me, I am still in DQBO and I await the update DQD7 which is beginning to be deployed in some countries. If this is not going to solve the problem, I will try to reinstall the fimware with Smart Switch. What do you think ?

If it's restarting due to the firmware bug then DQD7 will most definitely fix it. Beware of the emergency recovery though. Ive not used Smart Switch but the "initialization" part sounds like it would wipe the device, though that could fix any issues. Backup first, if you can.
Hi,
Has anyone experienced random reboots or similar issues after upgrading to Android 10? I'm on retla and, since receiving the new version a couple of days ago, my phone has been rebooting randomly. Sometimes it's 5 times in a row, others only once. I know a factory reset might help, but I was hoping not to get to that instance. While on Android 9, I never experienced similar issues with this phone, and no new apps have been installed recently.
Thanks.
Hi. No reboot for me. I recommend reset.
No reboot for me x2
Thank you all for confirming this. I'll be performing a factory reset then.
my phone has been rebooting randomly too.Hard reset and factory default did not help.I wait fix from moto
My phone also reboots by itself mostly at night:crying:
For me works stable
It looks like a factory reset resolved the issue for me. It's been 2 days without reboots...

Not for me (((
Also happening to me. Happened in android 9 and solved on their last update before android 10. Now it's happening again, hopefully it will be solved on Motorola's next upgrade patch
So anyone else having random restart issues no matter what firmware you are running?
I am having this issue even after updating the firmware (yes I managed to get it updated lol didn't realize need to do it in increments rather straight to the latest).
I found a work around sort of but it requires having my hotspot on and another device connected at all times to keep the phone from restarting randomly.
Has anyone else ran into this issue and have a fix? Could it be a battery optimization setting?
Thanks
i got it when i update the rog 5 to latest version so i factory reset it then worked well

Ok thank you for replying, I just finished backing up with Migrate and going to do a factory wipe and then restore all my apps. Hopefully that solves my issues.
I have the same problem for last two firmware updates, for each update I need to do a full factory reset in order to let it work again!
Hey
since I installed the official android 12 update on my phone I am getting restarts at around5am-6am as well as some strange playstore errors when installing applications.
Does anyone knows why these errors occour?
unfortunately at this time I can only attach the logs of the playstore error while installing an app as I am sleeping around 5am/6am and I cant create logs in time.
Probably auto restart is active.
Lol, probably shouldn't have been so eager to move to 12.
yeah, the same thought occured to me as well haha
nah autorestart is disabled, checked that as well. Changed my csc via samkey, maybe that caused the issue. I will reset my phone tomorrow maybe.

Yeah a factory reset is mandatory. Lol, maybe auto restart is a permanent Android 12 feature.
For users like me that run for days at a time without rebooting
