Hi,
My phone sometimes just restarts suddenly like it crashed and gets stuck at the Android screen. This has happened twice - first when I was listening to some songs, and the second time while the screen was unlocked.
The first time, I noticed that the SD card suddenly became unmounted and after a few seconds the phone rebooted from the Android screen, but gets stuck there.
The second time, I took the phone out of my pocket and found it stuck at the Android screen.
In both cases, the power button didn't work and I had to remove the battery and replace it to fix the problem.
In both cases, I wasn't running too many apps - the first case, just the music player and some background apps, the second time, just the background apps.
I am a root user with stock 2.2.2 ROM, and I use Link2SD. I have had 2 SD card unmount problems in the past, but it hasn't happened for almost 2 months. Dont know if its related.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I noticed that my phones internal space for apps was getting full, so i moved some apps over to my SD card. Now, once every three minutes or so, the screen freezes, goes black, and then im brought to the lock screen to start all over again. I've tried moving apps back to my phone, but i must have moved about 50 or so. And because the phone is still launching and reading apps off of the SD, it takes a while to move them back to the phone...in fact, it takes so long that i'm unable to move them back before it crashes again.
Bad news. This has happened multiple times. Any fix? I don't have enough time before it crashes again to back up my settings, but it looks like i'll be stuck wiping. If you have a fix lemme know.
I have a Note 2 which had CM 10.1.3 I was having a ton of problems as far as it being glitchy, really laggy and slow, constantly rebooting. I would generally have to restart it on my own 2-3 times a day to get it working good again. Occasionally the phone would be on and the power button would not turn the screen on, it would just stay black for a couple minutes then start working again.
I recently did a factory data reset on the device and then after a day the sd card popped up as corrupted and now says blank or has unsupported filesystem. I attached a screenshot to show you. Did my sd card just go bad or what happened?
Hey guys. My S3 started freezing randomly a few days ago. What happens is that I will be playing with it and then it will literary become unresponsive along with the hardware buttons except the power button. The weird thing is that the animation on the screen is still active: say I was writing a text and the little blinking bar keeps blinking as if nothing is wrong but the phone is simply unresponsive.
I did a factory reset and it is still happening.
Anyone have any idea what the heck is happening? Is it hardware or software related?
Have a read of the freezing thread in general forum, sounds like the operating system is dealing with bad memory blocks.
Well, same thing happens to me, i looked up on that tread about bad memory blocks: well i even tested the memory and works fine, no bad memory sectors, my hardware power button responds to restart (no need to pull out battery). When it does freeze it doesn't unfreeze at all after some time ( i once let it unfreeze for entire night on charger and it stood on the same screen after 8+ hours). I even reinstalled a different software (JB 4.1.3 Darky edition) and it freezes very rarely now but when it does, it's still same kind of freeze. When it freezes it freezes mostly on Twitter app but sometimes random app. I don't know now is it really a faulty memory or just software bugs... btw dummy file didn't freeze my phone (to be clear) after i reinstalled the software, but did it before on old one
Help! Galaxy's freezing!
Hello,
I have exactly the same problem, when phone freezes nothing works except power button, when pressing it about 10 seconds, the phone reboots. I have exactly the same model (GT-I9300), but Lithuanian. The freezing lasts from 10 minutes to an infinite time. All the freezing started about three weeks ago, when google play started updating iron man game. I tried dummy file geterator, the phone hasnt freezed at all, but the phone freezes randomly when opening internet, other apps or just anytime, even when phone is on stand by. I tried flashing DarkyRom 4.1.2 XXEMB1, but the phone started freezing even more, then i recovered from the Nandroid backup, and the phone is now freezing not so frequently, about 1 freeze in 2-3 days, but it still freezes, and i also have a strange "Process com.google.process.gapps has stopped working" problem. I tried every solution to this problem, but none of them works. Also, i think it is somehow connected to the freezes, because after those messages phone freezes sometimes. I dont know how to solve these super annoying problems, because i tried nearly everything, and nothing works. I think this might be a hardware issue, and that i should buy a new phone. If you know somehing, help me!
Hi,
Since a week or so now, my Samsung Galaxy S3 with a rooted Android 4.1.2 "sort of" freezes randomly. And with "sort of" I mean that animations and such (can) keep running, it just doesn't respond to any kind of imput anymore. I had it freeze on a youtube video, but the video kept playing till it was done (but it didn't continue like it would afterwards, so the process definitely froze too).
I have no clue what sets it off. I've had it freeze while using navigation, while browsing, while typing, while taking a photo, while turning the screen off (it will just stay on forever), anything. Sometimes it freezes 5 times in 5 minutes, sometimes it freezes only once a day. In all cases, the only way to get it back to life is by taking the battery out and putting it back. Waiting doesn't do anything.
I thought it might be a memory card problem, but I unmounted the card and got the problem again just now.
I figured I'd download an app that writes logfiles to see what is happening, but all those programs don't work anymore with the current version, due to that the programs only have access to their own logs now.
Does anyone have a clue to what might cause this, or a way to troubleshoot further and try and find the solution?
Thanks!
Hello guys, I have a Samsung Galaxy A10 and since today that I'm having an issue with it. Every 3 seconds there's a lag spike in the operating system only. In apps its completely normal no lags at all. For example if I continually flick the notification bar up and down i get a lag spike every 3 seconds every time. It happens the same with the navigation buttons on the bottom, keyboard, basically anything related to the os. But in apps I dont have this issue. I think it all started when I plugged in the charger and i got a warning that was water on it, but there wasnt any water that warning sometimes pops up when the cable slips a little bit and gets halfway attached. I restarted the phone multiple times, it seems fine on boot but quickly goes to the same problem. The phone is not rooted, it's original firmware and all. Can anyone help me out here?

Try this
Uninstall apps which haven't used in last 30 days. No need to worry, you can always install back when required.
Delete all images and videos of WhatsApp and similar which are just forwards. It will be a big chunk usually.
Move all personal pics and videos to cloud (Google Drive). Enable auto backup. Delete device copies for > 1 week old files.
