Hi there,
I'm experiencing the following problem:
When im unlocking my Prime several processes simply crash. The first process to crash is gapps (for most of the time). Then several other processes crash too. I can't start any app then and have to reboot my Prime to get everything working again. This happens every few minutes...
Yesterday I wiped my Prime and reconfigured everything as before, but without Google Browser Synchronisation. Then the tablet ran fine for abour 24 hours without any issues.
This morning I enabled Browser Sync again, and about 1.5 hours later the tablet crashed again...
Have you experienced similar problems? Any ideas / solutions to this?
I only found problems like this for the original transformer, but not for our Prime...
Thanks in advance for any help

Hi Everyone, thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
I have an International Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300), running 4.1.2 stock, rooted, bought nearly a year ago. About a month ago the phone started freezing & needing a reboot maybe once a day. In the past 2 weeks it is becoming much more frequent, however. Sometimes the phone freezes while in standby (screen off), sometimes while browsing/general usage. The only clear pattern I can see is that it always freezes around 11pm everyday. These are the troubleshooting steps I have tried:
1. I did a factory reset - no fix.
2. Flashed CM 10.1 plus Gapps to test if the problem was with the stock firmware- no fix. Same problem
3. Re-flashed the stock firmware with Kies - same problem.
4. Had a suspicion that it was one of the Google apps causing the issue - uninstalled Chrome, disabled Play Music, disabled Gmail - no fix.
5. Ran eMMC Check to see if the chip could cause the problem - it says I have an insane chip, but memory block test was successful.
6. Ran logcat at 11pm last night and it froze at the following: PowerManagerService [w] Timer Ox1->OxO | OxO. I don't know if that is relevant as I don't understand it...
I'd appreciate any help. I am at the stage where I'm thinking of sending it back to Samsung for repair, but others who have reported this problem have said that there phones have the same problem upon return.
read the freezing thread in General
I can confirm that the method here is working:

over a month not a single freeze
I ran the DFG fix, will report back
Ran the DFG fix again twice yesterday (thats around 35-40gb written so far) and no freezes in the past 24 hrs...
i know a couple other devices have been having similar problems but none of them that I've seen work for the viewsonic gtab. What's happening is that the program "android.process.acore" stops responding and it just says to force close it. It seems fine for about maybe 10 seconds at a time, and then it happens repeatedly. What is also happening is that the device is not allowing me to open the keyboard. Otherwise it pretty normal. I've had it for about 4 years and this is the first time it does this. I would like to try to fix this without using a factory reset.
SGS4 (GT-I9505). I installed cm-11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-jflte about half a year ago, never had any (major) problems.
Then I woke up (late, because no alarm) this morning, noticed my phone was turned off. I tried turned it on and as soon as I entered the PIN it rebooted. After sometesting I found out that when wifi or data is turned on (either by turning one of them on manually or by exiting flight mode), the second I have connection (I do receive some whatsapp messages) my phone does a soft reboot.
The only thing that has changed (as far as I know) in the past couple of days: I installed Nova Battery Tester through Aptoide (downloaded here since it's no longer in the play store). I ran 3 online virus tests on the apk and limited its permissions with xprivacy, so I hope I'm safe in that regard. Plus, it was installed 3 days ago. Still, you never know. I uninstalled the apps (both Aptoide and NBT), but still get reboots.
Apparently people have similar problems with wifi-only, but the solution is usually: reset or reinstall the OS. Not really a solution, though I'm probably going to do that as well, since I don't foresee a solution soon (as in: today).
Anyway, if anyone does know of a solution -if not for me, then maybe for the next person- (or maybe can tell me to not use Nova Battery Tester), please share
tl;dr: after several months of using CM11 (snapshot M12) my SGS4 suddenly starts soft-rebooting when there is an internet connection (it works fine while in e.g. Flight mode).
Update(/bump): a factory reset got rid of the reboots.
The problem: The first 3 times, while i was online trough wifi on battery modus, it happened to me that of all sudden, the phone tells me, the docking station is connected, while i don't have it connected, not even have a docking station. And then the cursor jumps and it trys to play crazy until i cant operate it and need to close the phone. The first time when it happened, i saved my files and flashed the stock android 5.1.1. But it didn't solve it. The trouble came again. Temporarly i found a solution, i had to remove my custom launcher(i tried many! Also the stock one. The only difference is: Here i only have to clean the cache! ) while in safe mode and when restart all was fine. I checked with almost all free antivirus and antispywares apps, but there was nothing. It also removes allmost all icons after restart and then i have to install again a launcher and the icons will reapear and i need to rearange them again.
The best temporarly solution: After the 3 times, i managed to solve the problem, while leave it untouched and close wifi. It calms down that way without closeing the phone, don't know why. Don't know if its a security flaw, or just because i stay long on wifi. But it happens always when i browse the web and even with all browsers, stock and firefox and chrome. And then it continues to work normaly after i log in to my phone again, while the browser were i was surfing, i encounter as crashed, and i can go wifi again. I don't even know if its a hacking attempt.
But i just wanted to share this, it may help some, and i hope there will be a solution for this, thanks.
Hey guys!
I've been experiencing some regular random restarts and app crashes. The phone restarts randomly with the Auto Restart Option being turned off and some of the apps crash and I get a notification that the app is experiencing multiple crashes. Then I go to the Device Care and I see that it says that a certain app has experienced multiple crashes. Some of the apps were the Camera App, GBoard, Settings, Google APP etc. Did not have any issues with the device until now. I have factory reset the phone and cleared the partiotion cache. Now the phone restarts randomly at least once a day but it still experiences the issue with the app crashes. Have you guys experienced something like this? I have researched the issue on the web but could not find any particular fixes. I do not think that this is a hardware issue as the phone charges (wired/wireless) and it does not restart randomly during charing. The device also connects to my pc with USB cable without problems as well. I also self checked everything in the Samsung Members app. Everything was working properly. Do you have any suggestitions or advise on how to fix that?
Many thanks!!!!!

I don't have a suggestion for an instant fix. But I suspect one of two possibilities:
1) One other non-Google app running in the background is the culprit.
You don't say whether you did a massive uninstall of apps. Either uninstall one at a time to see if there's improvement. Or all of them.
2) Something is corrupt in the metadata that came from your most recent Android OS patch. Best solution but the most effort would be to do a factory reset and introduce apps slowly over days.
Hi guys I just wanted to mention that something similar happened to my S21. And in my case, it was related to the way I charged my phone. So, I had this very long zoom meeting and my phone was dying so I plugged my phone to a USB port extender plugged to my laptop. My phone was charging super slow probably for an hour or two. After that the random shutting down started nonstop. I restarted, clean the phone app cache, nothing worked. I found the solution: Just properly charge your phone! So I just turned my phone off and plugged to my Anker fast charger and let it plugged until it hit the 85% (I have that option on to extend the battery life) And this fixed the problem . Hope it helps! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...5c-20&linkId=2fb4916d90c22865e74ea6be35805c09
