Cyanogen redirecting to home screen every 2-3 secs - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was accessing chrome and all of sudden everything got minimized to home screen. I tried killing apps, restarted mobile, power off phone and start but no luck.
From any app I am in, if the touch screen has no touch for 2-3 secs , then it Will bring me back to home screen. However I am able to download apps from play store by touching screen continuously.
I am on latest update of cyanogen provided by one plus one. Any help is highly appreciated.

Hi,
I tried factory reset (Without data). It only worked for the day. Today i realized that it has started doing the same thing again. After every 2-3 secs anything gets redirected to home screen. Battery doctor also is not killing apps and gets redirected to home screen. The mobile is not getting locked as well.

You should not be using any apps like "Battery doctor", this might be the reason for this type of behaving of device.Please uninstall any other apps like this also.

I installed security guard. Post that its working fine. But will definitely try to remove it as well as battery doctor and similar apps to see if there is an issue.
Thanks.

Issue still persist

Hi,
I uninstalled all optimizing app. However, the issue came back. Now it is not getting solved even after installing them back.
Do you think it is an hardware issue?

It may be an issue with compatibility because if you're still using the stock cyanogen OS
You will still be at android 5.1.1 and the current version is 7.2.
I may be wrong though so don't take my word for it

Screen wont stay off?

Over the past day i have realised that the screen will not stay turned off!
This has only started recently and i am trying to eliminate hardware.
Once i turn it off the screen stays off for around 5secs then flicks back on permanently, i have eliminated a faulty button as it doesn't switch back off at any point?
I have uninstalled every app except default
I have wiped and reinstalled cm30 about 6 times!
Anyone have any clues? Really frustrating!
Try to do factory reset and back to stock.
And see if the problem is coming.
If not, then your custom rom might be the culprit.

Blu_p0010uu_v19_generic_5.1

Has anyone downloaded and installed the new wireless update? Not sure why they changed to the Google messenger. Especially since Allo is due out soon.

Installing now. Kind of a disappointing update, but at least we haven't been abandoned.
I didn't think Allo was going to do MMS/SMS, but I've seen conflicting reports.
It looks like the issues I had with background apps closing when clearing all apps has been fixed. I've got no apps running in the foreground yet can see Whatsapp, Fitbit, etc still running and I'm receiving notifications for them.

You're right, my Garmin Forerunner doesn't disconnect when I do that now. Good catch.

The issues with the background apps closing seems to have been fixed. Thank goodness. Now Tasker and pushover work when closed.
As for Allo, I haven't read anywhere that SMS and MMS are not supported. It does seem to suggest that end to end encryption is primary.

I downloaded it and now my phone won't start up properly. It goes into a loop where it says android is starting and it is optimizing apps and then restarts back to optimizing apps over and over. I contacted Blu customer service and they said to hard restart mt phone. It doesn't work and my phone still does the same thing.
Since the update, it change the sms native to Google messenger and worts off it there is a bug, no notification at all on every sms program.
Do you have a link for this update?

I just hard re-set the phone a couple of times in a row and let the phone do its thing, optimizing the apps for 3 hours straight. The phone started up by itself and worked after that. Hope this works for you.

Hold the power and up volume buttons for 10 seconds to re-set phone. A menu with options will come up, select using the volume up/down button. Select re-set phone option with the power button. I did it twice in a row.
turning wifi off
So when battery is around 20% the strangest thing happened, wifi just turns off when phone is locked, just when it´s locked. Anyone else having this issue?
Does anyone know where to get the v19? I had to perform a factory reset and it backed up to v16. When I do the update it now claims that my system is damaged.

I do, but it was never a problem before the update. It seems rebooting helps with this issue, and then it lasts for like 1 month and then happens again. And now battery lasts nothing! do you have this issue after the update?

Actually, I have the same issue, and I have the SM-G930F.
I updated yesterday to 7.0 via Samsung Smart Watch, then did a factory reset and even cleared dalvik cache.
Prior to that I ran rooted 6.0.1.
Any suggestions, what might be causing this? And any other solution than to factory reset?

I tryed a few diffrent players, it does it with all of them, Slacker, mp3 player, even YouTube Red, so can rule out a music app, I am running Nova launcher how ever I don't think it related to that. I have cleared cache and restarted and the problem still happend today... I'm thinking factory reset but really hate to do that, also thinking att store since they broke my phone with this update and still under warranty. Any other ideas?

What I would do is flash stock rom again using CSC files to reset all partitions , do not install any of my apps and observe the phone for a day or two ...if everything is ok start installing my apps.....if problem comes back...then the issue may be one of the apps

Why does my Google Pixel randomly reboot?

Hi. My device worked just perfect until 5 days ago. It slowly began to ignore some tasks like opening apps or doing calls.
2 days ago my google pixel with Android 8.0 started to ignore every input i made, like opening apps or trying to reboot. It behaving like this after taking some pictures with the rear cam. After some attepts in opening apps it started to reboot. But instead of a normal reboot it stuck in a booting screen (the one with the Google G and a gray animation bar underneath). It took a while and i waited until it seemed that the OS booted correctly. But after this my device started to reboot randomly after a few minutes. After a while i figured out, that i can hold the power button while the screen with the google G was up to reboot it normally. This worked so that the phone was at least half an hour or more working until it rebooted again out of nowhere.
So far i tried to get it in safe mode and delete some apps like whatts app etc. In safe mode i didnt notice any crashes so far.... but in normal one it does a lot so deleting apps wasnt helpful. Turning on flight mode was not helpful either.
What can I do? What could it be?

Same thing happens with my Pixel, sometimes the phone is just get stuck on some random screen then I have to press and hold it for 15 seconds to let it reboot again. Lately I have started to see another problem, when it reboots bunch of google apps and services stops working and gives hell lot of notifications. All this started to happen after Android Oreo update

I noticed problems with my ear speaker as well. And i cant make phone calls. The phone doent respond anymore when i try to.
Same problem after android 8.0 update
If you have installed the latest Google phone/dialer app, that is likely the problem, was for me.
Find the app in settings and uninstall,it will roll back to a previous version and hopefully fix your issues.

My pixel does the same thing, ever since I updated to 8.0, have you tried doing a factory reset? I haven't done it yet, I have been uninstalling apps for the last couple of days, when it is in safe mode it works good, but when it's not, it freezes and restarts. I'm going to try uninstalling the latest version on google dialer to see if it helps.
I just want to update everyone in case you are having a problem with the random reboots.
I uninstalled the phone update and it was still randomly rebooting so I backed up the stuff that I needed and just did a factory reset. I have been a full day on my phone without any problems. I did a factory reset twice, just in case, for some crazy reason, the phone still had a problem, I wiped it twice! I think you'll be good with only wiping once.
Anyways to sum it all up, I did a factory reset, restored all of my backed up data from my pixel, I had about 120 apps and the phone has not had a problem since. I hope it helps someone else.

Mate, please report if you're still getting the reboots. Mine disappear for two weeks after I do a factory reset and then come back. Same happens in Safe Mode. Bug report claims it's 'Sense Key : Hardware Error [current]' and Google rep says it's a hardware issue (Toshiba's memory or something). Buganiser thread is here.
wrong place sry
Had this on my pixel xl. I was on the 8.1 beta.
factory reset, rolled back to 8.0
8.1 ota official

Yea, the issue is back, has been for about 2 weeks. This phone is really starting to be a pain in the ass, I can't believe that it happens so often. Did you do a warranty fix?
That's a pity. Yes, I did. Got the device roughly two and a half weeks ago. Flashed 8.0 and then sideloaded 8.1 right away. Knock on wood, all good. But there's still a report every other day in Buganiser of a phone even on 8.1 doing this.
Got mine at release. November 16. Google won't replace it either. I have a one pixel brick
I have the same problem. However, it is not frequent enough on Android P beta. But as soon as I go back to the stable build, it starts to do the same thing. Did you guys have any luck resolving this or should I send it back to the vendor I bought it from. They won't replace the device in Pakistan but may be will fix it in some manner.

Question SEE ultra randomly restarting

Hey Guys, as the title says my S22 Ultra is restarting randomly. It seems to be worse in the mornings, but stops in the afternoon and evening. I have updated to latest OS version, have updated all of my apps.
I tried running in Safemode for a couple of hours without it restarting so I don't think its hardware.
I am not doing anything on it out of the ordinary when it happens, browsing Instagram or using it with android auto in my car and it just turns off and back on. My storage is not full 10gb available, also it feels warm around the camera, top half of the phone. Its always done that, I think they just run hot.
It is turning off and then back to the Samsung logo and back on within 45 seconds which leads me to believe its not a full crash, maybe an os crash?
Any ideas on what I can do? I think my next step is a factory reset.
Model: SM-S908B/DS One Ui 4.1 Current os: S908BXXU2AVF1 / S908BXXM2AVF1
You can clear cache in recovery mode and see if fix before you factory reset.

That's a tough one then. What about the button next to the menu button on device care? Does it say anything about a restart history there?
if it doesn't restart in safe mode, one of your 3rd party apps is causing the issue.
submit an error report and get feedback when it restarts again
Samsung Members app > Get help > Send feedback > Error reports
do you have life360 app installed on your phone?
