I'm on global rom now, didn't seem to fix the problem. Tho using the phone but staying away from crash causing market while searching internets for a solution. And time seems to have fixed the problem, phone only seems to crash and reboot now if I stress it
Problem not fixed, but is quite rare now. Tho still don't know what it was or is

Mine does that too now and again, but the funny thing is I can still browse the SD whilst it's rebooting.

Yeah same
.. it doesn't happen too often, but when it does, it's ****ING ANNOYING!!
reboots while on GPS
It doesnt allow me to start the GPS hardware. If I disable the GPS hardware and start gmaps it works fine but when the GPS is enabled and the moment I enter the GMaps the small icon blinks for a bit and the phone reboots.
any clues ?
i think we all are facing similar problem
i had posted the following on this thread -
t=830520
"i am facing the same issue...a workaround is to remove the battery, sim and sd card for 5 minutes and then put them all back and start
although the phone starts sometimes when i connect to my computer or try to restore the backup it gets into the loop again"

Have the same problem. When I open Navigation Software, it works fine. When I turn on the GPS Satellite it reboots itself.
No ideas?
I no longer have the jit hack, but I remember reading in the thread that once your memory goes under a certain percentage it reboots. So they suggested using a task killer.
just fyi^^

That sounds like it fits, mine only really reboots when I stress it
Tho I notice when I kill apps, it kills my phone signal then reconnects. Any idea on what I need to exclude to stop that?
Thanks

Anyone found a good fix for this I cant even open a game or GPS for longer than a min, just froze and reboot on a phone call and had to leave the battery out for a bit, this has been going on for ages now and getting worse and hotter. Only just got it back from SE Repair yesterday with a software reflash despite me stating in the letter that does not fix the issue, argues half the day with SE girl who said they wont replace any parts on 1st or second return even if they know there is a problem with it, i ended up loosing it a little. Very poor from a big company, send an email yesterday to SE main office and complaints, no reply either. The shop wont replace as its been 5 months says its SE's problem, but my phone is essentially becoming a paper weight
What annoys me most is a bought a webcam over a year ago from ebay and now its buggerd 1 email to microsoft tech support and they are sending a replacement out no need to send back the current one. Came as an open box purchase and everything, but when you pay for expensive hardware thats faulty the company has no interest in a propper repair/replace
It was a problem of power management chip and power path problem probably too little vias or whatnot. You need to get it fixed at the stealer for the main board replacement. Reflashing your device won't work at all. And you have to refrain from using cpu intensive app like robo defense and charging the device at the same time.
Hope this isnt a start of something, but my notification led went white, phone locked, blank screen and reboot

Ive had this for a couple months now, getting worse and worse, since 1.6, multiple re flashed etc. Never fixes, cant [lay games now it crashes and reboots certainly cant handle navigation! Seems to be a problem with the phones, waiting on a spare phone to use while I send mine back to SE. Very annoying sometimes it goes on a reboot cycle takes ages to come back up and keeps rebooting as soon as it starts. Always worse when plugged in to usb/wall
Hey i have been getting the same thing........ random reboots........ since i updated to 2'1. I flashed aosp firmware. Same thing there. Called SE, they said tht i might not have properly upgraded my phone, so come to SE Service Centre.

I haven't had these strange reboots, but lately while manually rebooting my phone it hangs on the rogers white screen for ages.
So? No solution yet? Mine goes into reboot when being charged, specially when opening some apps. The battery then, too, gets overheated. Any solution?

Factory reset fixed my random reboot problem.......

SE is completely ripping me off !!!
I went to their service centre, they told me my phone has been purchased outside my country and will have to pay for software restore and if hardware problem, 75% of mobile cost. It was purchased outside of my country, but I never had this problem with other electronic devices.
Hey,
My SGSII is on the KE7 stock and rooted by CF-Root 3.7. My device sometimes restarts completely on itself and sometimes android restarts only. This is so annoying and I've searched a lot in the forums but I couldn't find what is the problem exactly and how can I solve that.
Thanks in advance.
Check and clean the battery contacts, there is another thread about this problem. It seems to only effect a few devices.

I think it's related to software problem, because sometimes android only restarts.
Can you give me link another thread about this?
Happened to me a couple of times too and sometimes while playing some games. I hope 2.3.4 would fix this

I had about 5-6 times complete restarts (seeing GT-I9100 boot splash) and about 7-8 times android restarts since yesterday.
Ive been getting the same issue. Ive found a thread and people have found it to be a wifi issue. Try WIFI Manager from the market, it seems to have sorted mine out for the moment. Its a strange one ill tell ya.

Even when I'm not using wifi (it is off), I had restart.
Anybody have this issue with KE8 ?
I have these restarts too, and i can reproduce them. If i put on some music with the build in player it reboots, sometimes at the 1st song sometimes at the 4th its a bit random.
I also have this reboot issue if i want to upload a picture of 4MB or more with twitter.
Tael take a look at this thread over hear:
http://samsunggalaxysforums.com/showthread.php/4954-Random-Restarts-on-New-SG2
It sucks big time considering that I'm merely 3 weeks away from mine! :-(
Hope someone could come up with a fix soon!
I wonder if all the handsets are affected...
How weird is this. As i posted my reply i had a callout to a job. As i was on the phone to the BT Tech Guy my phone went blank and would not wake up. After the call it would not boot. i had to reinsert the battery. This is not good imo.
Im now thinking of returning this phone as its more trouble than its worth
Here's another thread I just found:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1062065
They seem to suggest that a downgrade fixed their problem.
What im going to do is install the stock firmware without data ect.
See how its goes then maybe if that dosent work send its away to phone heaven. Or install cm7 when its available .

You flashed only kernel or total firmware?

The whole firmware just like he mentioned in the other thread.
PS: Check out BMC sometime, will ya?
Until recently its been fine, but over the past 1 and a half weeks, I've had 1 full restart and numerous android restarts.
I found that getting a new sim card solved it for me.
Hey everyone...
I'm kind of new here, and this is my first thread. I bought an ASUS Tranformer Prime and I love this thing. First thing I did as soon as I got it was update to ICS, so I have no reference if it was working prior to that, but I started getting random reboots yesterday (my first day of use).
BUT the only difference is that I got my first reboot when I installed Dophin Browser HD from the Market. I went on installing all the apps I wanted and was on the Prime all day yesterday, and the reboots started becoming more frequent last night. I think I got a total of 6-7 reboots all day yesterday, until I uninstalled Dolphin Browser last night. Ever since I have used the Prime with no reboots.
Hopefully today will be the same and no more reboots. I will keep you guys posted. It doesn't hurt to try this.
you have a lot to learn young padawan if you look at the 500 page thread on this issue you will see that it does not have anything to do with what software is installed primes brand new out of box upgraded to ics have had the lockup issue its a matter of time before yours locks up and reboots again it can be VERY random

problem happens on boot up and before OS loads too. has nothing to do with apps
yup, thats what happened to my wifes. On occassions the prime rebooted a few time while on the boot screen. And aftermarket live wallpapers made the main screen lag.
Sorry guys I thought maybe it would help some people out, but I haven't gotten a reboot ever since I removed that app. My problem and reboots are definitely not at startup, just in the middle of messing around on the net or the market. But it was rebooting every hour almost. Thanks for letting me know and I will keep watching for random reboots.

It's entirely possible that some people have been experiencing reboots because of Dolphin, but have automatically lumped themselves in with people experiencing the deeper problem of rebooting regardless of installed apps.
So, OP, thanks for mentioning this. It might very well help someone out.

No software would cause the prime to entirely reboot simply the application itself would crash and force close.

not entirely true. when my Epic 4g Touch freezes, if i keep tapping the screen or press the buttons, ill get a reboot. its almost like ive overloaded the cpu or ram? im not sure whats happening. but if i do nothing, it catches up and is fine. it rarely happens, but when it does, its when im reading/writing to storage (internal OR external SD). and i also know too that the prime has had less than desirable storage read/write performance. maybe hes downloading something or its caching a web page to memory? im not sure, but i do know it happens...
I just was talking with a friend of mine who had also gotten a prime over Christmas time. He said that in the beginning, he used to get reboots all the time... but it slowly stopped and finally doesn't reboot any more.
Mine typically reboots while media is playing or while I'm using the market. Sometimes it reboots while just navigating home screens..it's just so erratic. There's no way to predict it at all.

Defiantly erratic for me
Ive had reboots, in many different apps, sometimes a lock up then reboots, or just an instant reboot.
Yet sometimes I can be absolutely using it intensively for long periods, playing multiple games one after each other, browsing with multiple tabs... etc no reboot for hours.
Then i can just be scrolling through a simple menu and bam i get a reboot....

Not if there is a memory leak or something in the OS that is exploited by a certain app (obv not on purpose but exacerbated by the app) causing the OS to fail.
Got like 3 Reboots so far since .21 ... all 3 while playing video... 2x TED Talk app, and MX Player yesterday... both times after switching out of the a playing video and switching back to the app... the app can't resume the playback... hangs and reboots...
no other situations so far.

Same here, I get typically get two reboots a day like clockwork and they come while playing video. I will see the video play in some sort of loop while the audio is just fine and then it will freeze and reboot. Or if I'm able to exit out of the app then will freeze and reboot. Not really a big deal yet, as ICS loads pretty fast. Outside of that and weak wifi this is a great tablet.
I just got my first reboot couple days ago. It was while I was watching video on YouTube. My video started sluttering and artifacting....thought it was the uploaded video then tried to reloaded it-it did the same thing-sluttering and artifacting and it rebooted itself. It almost looks like driver issue to me. I hope it is fixed in the future updates.

Grüezi!
I believe the Ted reboot problem is with the app itself, and you're not the first to experience it.

I certainly don't have this issue, and I haven't seen or heard any other users with the same problem. Maybe try backing up your device, performing a factory reset and seeing whether the same problem occurs.
If you're a more advanced user, you could try checking logcat or dmesg backlogs and seeing if anything off is going on.
Hi, I also never had that problem, so I think you should do a reset to see if that problem is fixed.

I have heard of this in the local forum here but it didnt happen to my machine. They solved the problem by resetting the tablet as suggested here.
