Hi,
I experienced for the second time some strange incident on my OP Nord (eu). When I looked on my phone it had this OP Bootupscreen with the one red and two white moving Dots but it didnt start up. The dots where moving for about 15 minutes. I had to press Vol up + on/off button to shut down the Phone and then Start it again to get it up and running again.
The first Time I was in the Car listening to some music. The Phone was via BT to the Car Radio connected and played Music with the app Musicolet. After a short stop at a store it didnt connect again with the radio. I had a look on the Nord and saw this issue the first time.
The second time, I used it with some messaging apps, placed it on my desk, wanted to use it around 10 minutes later again and had this Bootup Failure a second time.
Had anybody of you some simlar Problem? Or maybe an Idea what could be wrong?
The Nord is not rooted or manipulated in any other way. Just standard Phone with the Latest OP Updates installed.
Kind Regards
Yes I had the same problem. I had to use Vol up + on/off button aswell, but it worked again after that. I just had it in my pocket and didnt do anything and when I put it out of my pocket I had the bootlogo as well. Strangely I had this also the second time as you said.
Random reboot force restart
Same to me 12gb version about 5th time now this has happened.. As other members say. You only notice it if your looking for at the screen. Had to do same it booted up into safe mode 1st. Have have seen on the Oneplus forums that some phone auto goto factory reset lucky that hasn't done that for me. However it does make you choose your default Internet search engine each time and my Google one account resets again... Anyone any idea of the cause any Dev / programmer's on here know the cause yet. As you all say its random done it to me while in pocket car and work desk.. Bloody annoying
Yes! Same problem here.
Strange auto reboot and gets stuck after connecting bluetooth sometimes, or while just simply decreasing volume . Screen goes unresponsive many times while using Google chrome and handling media on whatsapp. Mobile data and wifi would take 10-20 secs to turn on sometimes, don't know why!
DAMN! THIS PHONE HAS A TON OF BUGS THAT INTERFERE WITH DAY-TO-DAY TASKS!
Happened to me once too
Happened to me too a couple of times on EU firmware.
On the forum it's been madness with this , they issued a statement that they are full on it . But there were some users suggesting that it was caused by the forgot password option , and if pattern was used there was no problem. This though , was not confirmed. I have the phone about a week , i've been using pattern since my first android . Nothing has happened to me . Did anyone of you use pattern ? Or everyone had a password/ PIN ? If so , try using pattern lock to see if it happens again...maybe it could be a chance to pinpoint the root of it and save other users...
It happened 2 times when I used face unlock. I stopped using a locking method and no random reboots since, but there was also updates recently so dunno...
Happened twice

My Optimus 3D has suddenly developed some serious problems and I have no idea what is going on.
First indication was Power Off refused to work, it would blank the screen but the backlight and capacitive button light would remain on forever. So I have had to force off by holding the power button.
After doing this a few times its now taking AGES to finish bootup and most of the widgets are working sporadically. One minute they will be working, the next they won't and might respond to a touch half an hour later. Yet, a few of them still work fine. I have tested using LG Home as well as Launcher Pro, the same problem occurs on both.
Worst problem of all though is typing has stopped working. First time it did it I simply rebooted and it worked again, but its stopped functioning again and rebooting every day is unacceptable when it was fine before.
Basically any text input form I press, the keyboard pops up and I start typing, but the text doesn't go into the text input field. This is with any keyboard selected.
This is really frustrating as prior to these problems I was really loving this phone and hardly ever had to reboot it.
It seems it all started after something caused the phone to reboot itself in the night (the bootup jingle woke me but I was too tired to check) and then I think it locked up during the reboot as battery monitor widget shows no log entries after the reboot, just the battery suddenly at 100% again as I charged it before powering it back up the next day.
I would prefer to know how to fix it in case it happens again but if I am forced to restore to factory settings, any advise for what and how to backup what is on there so I have minimal work to get it back to this state (hopefully without the glitches)?
I have had both internal and external SD mounted over Mass Storage and done an error check from Windows on them which found no errors, as I suspected it was corruption on internal SD but clearly not.
The weird thing is, other than the above the phone works fine - but its fairly useless when I can't type on it and I am concerned the widgets hanging is degrading the battery life.
Flash a clean stock rom and see if it fixes it

I actually figured out what is wrong and its bizarre. It was my router!
Basically I upgraded DD-WRT to the latest version (which has since been taken offline so obviously buggy) and it caused all the above symptoms. The instant I disconnected from WiFi all events which were meant to happen suddenly happened all at the same time, then everything was back to normal. Connect to WiFi and it hangs again.
I have no idea how a bug on my router can cause such a wide variety of problems but there you go. Downgraded the router back to the previous firmware and all is well again.
I briefly had the "no text input" error happening after i removed some bloatware with root explorer. It was really starting to irritate me but when i turned the phone on it's side it worked again and has never stuffed up since!
Just thought I'd share my experience.

Well unfortunately I was wrong, problem started again today and I even tested at a friends house. Basically, when connected to WiFi my phone goes AWOL with widgets hanging and text input randomly stopping working.
Earlier to search marketplace I had to disconnect from WiFi, type the search string, reconnect, purchase, disconnect (it refused to download) and use HSDPA instead. This is really frustrating as I'm about to get 40Mbit broadband which is going to suck being forced to use T-Slowbiles pathetic 1Mbit HSDPA to download instead. Perhaps not the end of the world, but its really really weird.
I have the latest firmware on my S7 (exynos) and once every while the system freezes and then the phone reboots.
I don't know what's wrong with it.
Funny thing is my S5 with cm13 is WAY more stable than the S7...

I have tried few times in my previous S7. I guess it is the compatibility of app
My SD S7 does that when using the iheartRadio app - quite annoying
I'm on my second s7, the first would freeze and reboot regularly. Some folks here said they believed it was a software issue. I ended up exchanging it for a new one and haven't have had a single freeze or reboot since.
I Have it occasionally hoping an update fixes it
I have had mine for more than a week and so far no issues at all

having the same extremely annoying problem on my g930fd (DUAL sim) nougat
several times even had a black screen with nothing responding anymore so I had to wait to drain the battery completely so the device could reboot
resetted, hardresetted, re-flashed, re-rooted numerous times ... with no sollution
NOW (april 1st) just had a new update from samsung GF930FXXU1DQB7/G930FOLBDQB8/G930FXXU1DQB1
anybody else experience with this last update ?
I'm having the same problem and wrote about it on a Reddit page where a number of other people are having the problem with their S7's also: https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS7/comments/5xx705/after_nougat_s7_keeps_getting_unresponsive/
No solution so far
I wrote:
"I also have this problem with S7 on Nougat which started about 3 weeks ago. It seems to be getting worse.
A couple of times where I've ignored it the S7 got so hot I actually thought about keeping it away from my person. I can always force restart it by Power+Volume. Mostly I can wake it up by pressing the power button and the screen will light up after about 10 seconds of waiting, but nothing responds.
Once I had it happen while using the device. When this happened, I noticed that swiping down the notification bar sped everything up temporarily. If the notification bar was hidden the current application would be laggy. If I swiped down the notification bar partially the application would render quickly as normal.
I've also found that Google Maps and Spotify are the two main apps when this happens, but a common link for me is that either one will be connected to bluetooth in the car or bluetooth headphones. I don't think it's ever frozen without bluetooth being connected, but that could just be coincidence.
A strange thing is that Spotify stays playing songs and responding remotely when the S7 has frozen. If I have Spotify open on my laptop controlling music on the S7, I can still skip forward/pause/play etc for ages, although the songs start skipping audio after 10mins or so before stopping completely. It's like the System UI is the problem on the S7, and the app itself is still responding?
I'm wondering about doing a full reset but I'm dreading the several hours of setting everything back up, without knowing if it will solve the problem.
I use Lightflow and I'm going to try uninstall that for a week and see if I still get the freezing, simply because it is the only app that is continuously running on my phone in the notification drawer."
Re above, I did a factory reset as advised by Samsung support and the problem has gone away.
no solution, not alone
meanwhile I have tried several things
factory reset, swipe, root, no root
I noticed that the problem starts to appear when more and more memory is being used ...
no update from anybody else ?
meanwhile I read on the net this problem is not exceptional anymore, more and more people having this problem ...
Just posting to say it's been two weeks in total since i did the factory reset and I haven't seen the problem happen once since. Thankfully.
have a crazy situation - a number of times in the day at odd times the whole screen flashes red and then blue while vibrating and playing the alarm.
I do not think it is a virus and cannot figure out with what app this is associated with. I cannot associate it with any app directly. There is no message just suddenly starts flashing until I tap on screen or after about twenty seconds turns off

Yours is a great idea but these settings are disabled on the phone. Thank you for the suggestion however
Im having this same problem. Did you ever fivure out the issue?
After hard reset
Did a hard reset worked for about a month and in the last two days started again I have tried to Google and see if others have the same issue and there is nothing on the www. Crazy and absolutely have no idea what is causing it
Moto 360??
I am having the same issue. I also have a Moto 360 watch. I think there might a connection when the watch isn't in range the phone starts this panic behavior of red and blue. I still haven't found a solution....
What Fw are you on ? And do you have exynos or SD variant ?
I have a G950F and a moto 360 too and no issues so far ?
Same thing
This just started happening to me too. My only change recently was: I install an android wear watch hauwei 2 last week. I enabled developer mode to try and trace the cause.

I am doing the same with the Debugger (now), good idea. But I must admit, I don't know how to use the option on the Android to necessarily trace to a specific app.
I do know when I turn Bluetooth off the issue seems to go away.
Has anyone tried changing the network the device is trying to connect to? Let's say you have a GSM network, try setting it to GSM only. Vice versa for CDMA.
Same issue w/ s7 and note 8
I recently began having the same issue with my Galaxy s7 a d now with my note 8. The only connection is I've had my watch(fossil Q founder) connected to both. If I get out of range or disconnect from the phone via airplane mode etc. is when the phone loses it's mind. I think it's a feature in the event you might have misplaced your phone the watch is helping it be found(if that makes sense). I haven't found a way to disable this.
I had this Blue to Red flashing screen on my Galaxy S7. I could only operate my phone on safe mode, the virus or whatever this was drew the battery down while I was offloading photos and syncing the phone to the Samsung cloud. Then I only had approx 2% battery when I went to do the hard reset and before I could make it happen the phone lost power and I believe this virus prevented it from charging back up, essentially my cell died in 2 days from whatever this was. luckily AT&T is providing me a replacement but what an awful virus and what's to say when I resync the phone with Samsung it doesn't happen again?
Ok now, really?! You guys don't wanna tell me that since 2017 you guys are tracing this totally insane Homecomming ring plus red and blue screen flashes. So basically you living with this insanity since it's inception, and nobody knows what it is? I'm about ready to throw my phone into the garbage.
Any OS that is pre-Pie can be infected with rootkits that require a firmware flash to eradicate. A factory reset won't work.
Otherwise it sounds like you are introducing an app that is doing this after the factory reset.
If it doesn't do it in Safe mode... it's an app you added.
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
haven't had a reboot in over a week now

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.
Has anyone experienced your U11+ freezing up.
It has happened to me about 3 times.
It generally happens over night while it's charging. I get up one of those mornings and the green light is on, remove the charging cable and I can't wake up the phone. I can't even turn off the phone by pressing and holding the power button to kill the device. The only way is to put it into download mode by simultaneously holding down the vol down key and power key, and then when the menu comes up to select the reboot option to get the phone back to normal.
Has anyone else experienced this or know what could be causing this to happen?
The problem is that I use my phone as my alarm clock, and when it freezes up, my alarm doesn't work.
Any suggestions anyone?
No problem like that until now.
However, noticed sometimes that the my alarm, which is setup for vibration only, only vibrates once and then continues silently alarming until I turn it off.
Happens randomly but still strange. I've to try with another clock app.
That's really odd.
I'm going to turn off the always - on feature and see if I get anymore freezes. I had another one this afternoon.
I'll report back after some time and let you know if there has been no more freezes.
I'm just updating to the latest update 1.23.709.3 and see also how it performs.
I'm a bit concerned about this random freezing that I have experienced since I got this device.
If it persists I may ask for a new one.

I'm still on the October security patch so I'm expecting one for the December period soon I hope.
In regards to your freezes I've not encountered anything like that so far been working flawlessly so far if there is anything I can test let me know
I have the Taiwan version.
If you could try the always-on feature for a couple of days and nights and report back, that would be awesome. However, I selected the option, for always-on to only come on when I moved the phone. (good for night time use especially)
I had my phone in the pocket yesterday afternoon and it froze.
As I stated earlier, I can only restart the phone only by putting it into download mode and reboot from there.

Thanks for letting me know.
I guess I can rule that feature out as a probable cause.
It must be some other app that's causing this issue. But it's a pain to go through the process of finding out which one.

Yeah trial and error isn't fun. I'd probably factory reset though and see if it happens with barely any third party apps installed.

I have the HK model I think and I had the AOD when I first got it, set to motion and nothing has happened to my phone in regards to freezing fingers crossed. I have disabled it for the moment as I noticed a greater battery usage overall, I believe between 9-10% overnight and only 2% when I had it disabled.
Hopefully you find the problem otherwise see if you can get it replaced...
Since not using the always-on feature, I don't have any more freezes. Must be some conflict with the alarms and always-on. Can't see what else could be causing those freeze ups.
My phone surprisingly just froze up yesterday. But at least it's been a long while since not having the always-on feature enabled. With always-on enabled, it seems to have happened every day.
The issue I have most about this, is missing that important call when I haven't realised that the phone is frozen, because sometimes I don't pick up the phone for hours.
I had to do a complete fresh install from scratch and I have no more issues. I believe all my issues came from using HTC's transfer tool when going from u11 to u11+. Importing all the settings features using the Transfer Tool has caused issues. I'll never use this tool again.
All good now.
