I have my phone rooted and the Vodafone ICS rom
Everytime my phone switched off, whether it's my battery dying or switching it off manually, it REPEATEDLY crashes when I switch it back on. It crashes when I try and use an app or sometimes I wait for it to automatically lock and then no button works. I just have to take my battery out MANY MANY times before I get lucky and it doesn't crash. Once it doesn't crash when I don't switch it on, it then never crashes, until my phone switches off and then it starts all over again.. I don't know whether it maybe the'Directory Bind' app that is causing this but I haven't tried uninstalling as I need Directory Bind so I can save app data and stuff into my external memory card and still play the app

just try uninstalling that app and check if the problem resolves then the app is the culprit if problem still there then try 2 reflash the rom once and check
You might have downloaded an app. which is culprit and making your phone shut down..just try and uninstall few apps which you think is creating problem... I have done the same as i had the same problem..now my device is working fine.

the process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly
it keeps FCing and restarting on its own, make the phone un-usable because everytime i try to press a button, it will freeze, put up this FC, and when i click "force close" it will close what i was trying to open, and the cycle starts over again
i'm stock with the new JI6 update via KIES mini, had no problems for 3 days, and last night the phone ran out of batteries while i was out of the house and when i got back, i plugged it in, turned it on and i got this FC as the phone was doing the start-up media scan thing.
it will show this FC everytime i reboot as well
under settings -> manage applications -> running services there is a service called 'contacts storage' which is governed by android.process.acore
that's the only other clue i could dig out
*edit* mine doesn't seem to have anything to do with facebook, however, i can't access my contacts as everytime i try, this FC will force me out of the contacts screen
I've seen them a lot of times. When I get them, I just re-flash a new ROM onto my phone. It usually happens when I do something stupid to my phone.
i didnt do anything to it! everything was working, even after i updated to JI6 ... nothing was broken till it ran out juice yesturday.
I'll get this when I do a Titanium restore and restore the system data by mistake.
This should be in Q&A not development.
Also, try clearing your caches in Clockwork Recovery

I am using CM7 latest weekely every thing is perfect but now suddenly my phones screen turns on like call is coming and turns back off after 2 sec and this happens randomly.
is this expected behavior?
is there any work around?
My fiancee has an atrix that is totally stock and hers just started doing this yesterday. I would also like to know the answer to this. I was thinking it was a hardware issue with the power button but hopefully i am wrong, that way I dont have to mess with a warranty exchange. Any help would be appreciated.
by any chance have u just start using this app "Memory Booster - RAM Optimizer" if yes then this might be the one, i have just messed around in its settingsd and no screen wakup problems so far

No. The only apps that I think might cause this that I have on her phone is beautiful widgets and a data toggle. She has had these apps on there for awhile and the phone just started to act up.

Both me and my brother own atrix and it happens on both.It was happening on stock 2.3.4 and now on cm7 as well it must be something with the phone not a rom related issue
i also have beautiful widgets, can sk8trix conform that his and his brother phone have this app too. if yes then this might be the cause. or we have to tell each other whole list of apps that we have installed to narrow down the culprit.
On her phone I have all of her apps that are supposed to sync turned off. I recently installed data enabler for her so she would have a data toggle on her home screen. I use advanced task manager to kill her apps by force stopping them. Last night I used it and closed everything and turned her screen off. 5 minutes later it come on for about two seconds and shut off. I have been looking at what apps might be causing this and really dont see anything unusual except for the data enabler and beautiful widgets. I will uninstall both of those and report back later on to let you know the result. Hopefully someone else will come along with a better solution.

I don't use beautiful widgets ever.....I even tried with a clean install no apps installed except stock cm7 apps and google apps and it still happened so I gave up trying to figure it out.
it doesn't shorten my battery life at all so I don't worry however if there is a fix I will use it because it is annoying.
Edit the only time the phones wake up by themselves is right after we hit the power button to turn the screen off or when the phone firat boots and is still locked it will turn the screen off and turn it back on the dim again.
I dont think its cm7 issue cos i was at weekly # 4 and there was no issue then i flashed tuch recovery and after that boot it started happening. Then i flashed latest weekely and reverted back to old recovery. And i agree this only happen when i turn screen off (randomly)
OK here is where I am at now with this problem. I uninstalled both apps and it seems to be ok for the time being, but my fiancee told me she had been receiving weird messages in her notification bar. I looked into it and she was getting ads in her notification bar. So I downloaded AirPush Detector from the market and ran a scan on her phone and it detected a couple of apps pushing notifications. I got rid of the apps and now im back to checking the phone again. I dont know if that AirPush app would help you guys out or not but it would hurt to try.
since i have started this thread my problems have gone away like a little *****, and i dont know how to recreate this problem any more so i am stuck with no problem no solution thing.
12 hrs passed no problem so far.
It was apps in the background running. Airpush helped. I told her from now on no more free apps, i would rather buy them then fight this **** again. I put the data toggle and beautiful widgets back on her phone and it's ok. Thanks for your guys input.

I am having The same problem with my Samsung Galaxy ace Gt-5830i.
Earlier it had problems with charging and SD card. So we took it to authorized service center. And they said they had formatted the phone and installed stock ROM on it. They also replaced the charger port. But now after two days the phone screen is turning on and off at repeated intervals (for about 2 Seconds). So what might be the problem.
Hi,
I'm a owner of a Samsung Galaxy S Plus (I9001). I have the CyanogenMod 10 installed and also a second partition on my SD Card.
So far so good, I restart my phone everything goes well, even with the second partition. The phone is not particularly fast but I can't blame it as I have lots of apps installed.
What I really don't understand it's when it stays on for some time, without any explanation or visible error my anti-virus starts to restart itself again and again (Avast anti-virus) then everything on my status bar starts to restart itself (Juice Defender and Accuweather). The other issue is the keyboard starts and the closes restarting itself again and again, I can't write anything.
I tried several task killers to see if any app was causing this issue but nothing worked. The only thing that stops this behaviour is restarting the phone, then everything starts working well and for some hours (5-6) then the restarting begins again.
I find myself restarting the phone two or three times per day because of this. And also by restarting the battery looses a lot of it's power.
Any ideas to solve this?
Cheers
I had the same problem. Try uninstalling Avast, reboot your phone, then reinstall it. Worked for me but as for the other apps doing it, I'm not sure.
Ofhrysto its

I already tried to uninstall and install again. I even changed to Kaspersky a couple of times...same result. This probably has nothing to do with Avast.
Hey,
I've had my S6 Edge for about a month or two now. Never experienced any random reboots until today. I restarted it earlier today, and now it keeps restarting several times an hour. It most often restarts when I unlock it, after the screen has been off for some minutes. It also restarts if I browse the internet or browse Play Store. It reboots to the Samsung logo, then directly to my home screen. I don't have to enter any pin, unlike when I manually reboot it. The phone is not rooted and I haven't installed any apps in days. It seems like me restarting my phone triggered this.
Any ideas or suggestions? It's VERY frustrating, the phone is nearly useless as it is now. I can't use it for more than a couple of minutes before it reboots, losing everything I was doing.
I have tried wiping cache. Still restarting.
Thanks

Try using it in safe mode. If the problem disappears you know it is a third party app
It doesn't restart in safe mode. I've uninstalled a bunch of apps but it doesn't stop restarting in normal mode anyway.
If the phone is fine in safe mode, it can't be anything but a 3rd party app causing problem?

Safe mode is very similar to normal mode.
The difference is all non-system apps have been removed.
It is a mode put into all Samsung phones to diagnose issues that may show up.
It is a very basic, simple way to diagnose problems.
Since your issue disappears in safe mode, try uninstalling every app you have installed, then download them again, one by one

Thanks. It turned out to be a bad app, that I installed a week ago or so. Of course, it was the one app I didn't want to have to uninstall. Oh well, at least it doesn't reboot every other minute now.
Thanks for the help, much appreciated.

It was Casper, an alternative client for SnapChat.
I have the same problem but samsung service centre fixed it by changing the main board and battery.
I had only one restart and had phone over month
And it restarted bcos I was installing all apps at once from play store ?
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
