My phone has recently just started to turn off randomly. It will do this whether the battery is full or lower. It hasn't done this if it is plugged in to an AC outlet, but I believe it has done this before when plugged into a computer. I push the awake button but don't get any response. I hold down the power button for about ten seconds to reset it. Any ideas on why this is dong this? It just started doing this about a month ago and I have had the phone since I bought it new about a year and a half ago.

There is a thread 4 down from yours called 4.0.4 OTA update. "Solutions" can be found there. Like don't use 4.0.4.

Usually when someone knowledgeable of the issue replies in the thread, they give a little more in depth answer than just a one word reply. I'm not trying to have a drawn out phone-like conversation on the issue, just an answer. He was being curt on purpose. No hard feelings though
And there wasn't a reason for me to think that a new update would cause my phone to turn off in sleep mode. I did a search and nothing came up. Even if I looked in that thread, I would have to have to go through 4 pages of banter to see the issue brought up.
I think this is a big enough issue to warrant it's own thread. Most people have stock ROM (maybe not on this site) and update to the newest software version when prompted to on their phone. But like I said, no hard feelings. Just want to get a limelight on this and get it resolved.

I downloaded the update OTA. I haven't used KIES for an update in awhile. Looks like I'll have to live with it until a new update comes out.. No reason to think they wouldn't provide an update to fix the issue promptly.

So you clearly didn't look in the thread with the title 4.0.4 in it, being the issue started when you upgraded to this firmware ....
And if they didn't bother fixing an issue with the kernel that can hard brick a device just from wiping, why would they fix this issue?

The correct answer is No. While this "leaked firmware" seams to have fixed the GPS issue we do not know when it will be pushed out. Based on what I am seeing, it appears to be early beta quality. Figure a couple weeks to flush out issues, ship to the carriers, then the a couple weeks for them to certify it before pushing it out....basically I would say at least a month. However, this "leaked" firmware could be old as well and the carriers may already have it and we could start getting update notices tomorrow. The answer is, nobody on this forum actually knows.

For you. I get unavailable messages. So its not a "for sure" thing. Unless i am doing it wrong.
GPS does not work for me either. After flashing I am seeing 12 satelites. All sats have an snr of 15-25 with zero locked.
I was able to get into lbstestmode using a market app called any cut. All of my settings are set to stock.
It appears that this update is not 100%. If anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears.
op, if you are asking a question please put a question mark in your title so you dont waste peoples time with misleading thread titles. thanks

Could be a hardware problem, if you're under 30 days or have insurance i wouldnt be worried to much. This is the first im hearing of this particular problem; Do you have an airave at home by chance?
I forgot to say that I am using the phone in Canada. My phone got very hot and drained battery very fast few hours ago. I think there is a hardware problem on my phone
What is airave?
With what you just said, you most likely do have a hardware problem...

I was on gtalk with faux123 and sent him the OTA update. He took a look and determined that the .6 update disabled the HTC information mining and logging. I'm not saying that it did not effect the heat issue, but it was mostly for the logging.

I've updated two phones today but they were both stock so I don't know yet. Still early going so I have no real feedback as of yet.
My biggest question is can I upgrade all my 2.3.x phones to this over the air, or will I have to hack 4.0 on there first anyway? I literally spent hours upgrading 5 S2s to 4.0.3 two days ago seeing as there was no other way. Then I see this today. Ah well, better late than never I guess. I have 4 s2 devices to get to 4.0 anyway I can so I'm hoping I can just call the users and tell them to do it over the air.

Back on Topic, I tried the update this evening on my rooted stock ICS S2 (replacement came with 4.0.1 on it from AT$T). Of course, it failed. I'm sure it is because I uninstalled some system app. I didn't note which ones I got rid of. Does anyone have a list or link to a list of the apps that came with the phone originally? I want to reinstall them so I can update. Thanks!
After upgrading to Android 4.1.1 my Galaxy s3 now reboots randomly all the time. It never happened once before the update.
Any ideas what could be causing this? It never happens during any specific action so I can't really tell what it is.

According to samsung its happening due to some software bug which causes the flash memory to stop responding and making the device reboots! they will soon provide an update which will fix this bug! hopefully it will be the 4.1.2 update!

It's always better to do a factory reset after a major update. Back up your phone through Samsung Kies and factory reset it.

It's all good. I have CyanogenMod now. I haven't tried a custom ROM until now.
I must say, I'm quite glad I made the switch. It's so much better than Samsung's ROM! Everything is smooth and runs cleaner and faster with no bloatware running in the background or taking up memory.
