Freezing/SOD Issues on 4.4 KK Roms [Serious Discussions] - G2 General

Hello everyone,
This Thread is not supposed to be some offtopic discussion or flaming etc.
I'm creating this thread because alot of people have to those issues, which results in spam in every dev-thread.
So why not create a seperate thread for exactly this issue? It might even help the developers find the cause.
If you don't have this issue, DON'T POST. SAYING "I DON'T HAVE ANY ISSUES, EVERYTHING IS FINE" DOES NOT HELP ANY ONE.
Anyway, let's begin :
If you've been using 4.4 on your G2, then you're probably familiar with the screen of death bug.
What exactly is this?
Well, since the first CM11 nightly there has been the following issue : When doing random things on your phone (let's say write a message), the phone would start to "slow down", "lag", " get sluggish". Whatever you want to call it. When you scroll up and down, it feels like using a single core device from 2010 with 800 mhz. Switching between apps causes the animation to stutter and be choppy (looks like 15-20 FPS?). Now, if you turn the display off and on again, everything's fine again. If you don't switch the display off, you'll get the screen of death (complete freeze of the phone, sometimes sound keeps playing and vibration works). If you now try to switch off the display, it will eventually unfreeze. I couldn't figure out the exactly how long it takes to freeze, but it seems like a 10 seconds.
Now why is this such a big problem ?
As you can imagine, there are situations where such a freeze is the last thing you want to happen (I understand that 4.4 is not completely ready, but some roms are being considered totally stable...which is clearly not the case). I have a lot of respect for every dev working on this device and i don't want to tell anyone what to do BUT i feel like this issue has not been getting the attention it should.
Because it happens on every KK Roms (PA, CM, Mahdi, Vanir etc.) it's even worse. Some people advice to disable TB, SuperSU Notifications, raise voltages etc. but that doesn't help.
So what can we do about it?
Probably nothing. But we can post our setups. When and how it happens. Which Roms is being used. What Kernel and so on to give the devs atleast a bit of insight.

Once again, please don't clutter this thread with unneeded discussions. If it helps to solve the problems it's totally fine.

Cause of this is some root apps, like titanium, You can set super su tô always accept root acess and dont log, dont ask anything. Tribais maybe helps.

Subscribed, I will be watching this thread. I don't believe that there is a common cause, I think it is a flaw in the base itself, but it would be great if I am wrong and someone connects the dots and can fix this.

I would think that logcats and/or information like what speed the CPU is at, are there heavy CPU using apps, etc would be useful.
All probably needing adb and USB, so might invalidate the issue, but might be useful.
And BTW OP, don't be so quick to be dismissive when people post suggestions. Some root apps are known to cause slow-downs (100% cpu usage)

Here's the thing : It happens even when you freshly install a kitkat rom. Nothing installed but the rom itself. I also went ahead and disabled root. Same result. It's obvious that some apps cause 100% usage, but completely slowing down the phone and even freezing it is NOT normal behaviour. The fact alone that it doesn't happen on stock or CM 10.2 should give away that something is wrong. I don't want to offend, piss off or hurt anybody but i would like to see this sorted out eventually, or find a good workaround.

Comments : everything cm original. Doesnt use bt. Feels like it works better with trebuchet (no effects) than with nova(freezes more often with that one, just a feeling)
Edit: when this problem occurs i tap the power button and the lookscreen activates (after a while) then i can just use it as normal again. Some times a reboot is needed...

I've noticed something strange. Sometimes right after recovering from a SOD, random apps such as systemui (on PA) would crash/force close. Anyone with the same behaviour?
I had this one earlier today vanir.

Not sure if this is a red herring or not. I'm on the 0129 CM build, banks core gapps (full wipe install, came back from another rom). My uptime is 44 hours and I've had zero freezes.
Using trickster mod I set read ahead buffer size to 2048 and multicore power saving to 2.

Now don't hold me to this, but I installed SlimKat 2.4 on LS980, and had no freezes or lags. So I thought "Huh, wonder why?" Then I realized that I never enabled root via Dev Options, as it's disabled by default. I enabled root, and I had some minor freezes. For the past week, no ROM(not just SlimKat) has ever lagged while I had root explicitly blocked via the Dev Options. So at the moment I enable root just to do what I need to do(TB, Adaway, ROM tweaks, etc.) then disable root again. I could be(and probably am) wrong though. Just some food for thought.

Rom : CyanogenMod 11 (latest nightly; 1/30)

When does it freeze (apps that are being used at the time of freeze) : Only freezes when I turn the screen off. Double tap or hitting power button does not turn screen back on (ie, stays dark). I have to hold down power to reboot.
Logs (if you can provide them) : N/A
Comments : I love the CM11 ROM. The only issue I have is with the freeze after screen is turned off. It's starting to get really annoying, sadly. Seems like the more rooted apps I have...the worse it gets. But this is just a hunch. I'm also using the Nova Launcher and G2 Xposed.

I think the biggest issue with this is that it is so random. There's no way to purposely replicate it and it never seems to repeat itself in the same scenarios. Sometimes it happens when I'm unlocking my phone. Sometimes when I hit the back or home button. Sometimes when I open an app. Sometimes when I'm making a call.
My only guess is that it has something to do with transitions. Whenever the screen is changing something is the only pattern I can see.

I think it only affects certain devices. Been running Mokee with zero sods or freezes. Of course I use my phone only to make calls, texts and emails. No games or social networking sites.

Firstly, I think this thread should be moved to Q&A section. Anyhow, I also have this freezing issue since long. Kmesg tells that the GPU composer crashed. Apparently the hw composer crashes randomly during an app open animation, keyboard popping animation, or portrait to landscape transition.

Matches up quite well with my experience. An animation/transition is always involved.

Guess we're onto something. I've also managed to get into trickster while it was lagging shortly before it froze. The CPU usage was totally fine, clock speeds and cores were acting normal aswell. So it's probably a GPU issue. Is there a way to observe GPU clock speeds, voltage etc. ?

ICS SOD and Crashes

Hello There I updated my folio to cm9 and found out that i cannot post on developement , so i decided to create a new thread to here in order to publish todays testing of the new rom.
First thing is that i installed with cwm 5.0.0.9 with no problem so that worked too.
It worked smooth and fast. Not as fast as foliomod 1.4 but almost.
I have SOD with no app installed only market. (i try to reinstall with the creator proposed recovery)
I found that i can install now the 3.1 and up applications like adobe photoshop and ideas .
I painted photoshop for a few hours and had a strange freezing first than after a minute and so it came to life by itself.
30 minutes later it freezed for good and it ruined the system so i had to reinstall the ROM...
I couldnt make a photo of the system message of boot error but it said 2 differend one wifi related and 1 driver related...
(sorry i have no chance to logcat because of win7... If someone pm me about a solution of logcat work in win7)
I am a newbie so i dont know how to use developer related programs and webpages but i try to share information with the community here.
All in all i think this ROM is faster and better than honeycomb mods and runs photoshop (i wanted a tablet to paint...)
I had strange wifi signal ups and downs during connection...
working:
- UI
- Wifi
- Bluetooth
- Sensors
- Audio
- Gapps
- skype, imo
- games (cut the rope), gameloft apps (x2 optimus version)
not working
-youtube app
-flash in browsers
-playing flash videos
I want to thank for all who is working on the ICS ROMs right now, you do a really good job guys, please keep up so we can all have a very good tablet working .
Im looking forward for solutions for not working parts and updates .
So glad to hear the photoshop works on it - that's one of the apps that I was really hoping would work. Did you say that photoshop remained pretty stable over those few hours?
I know that the rom is going to be pretty unstable though - SOD is not a real issue to me, but the rom corrupting itself is a bit of a worry!
no sod for me, stable rom, youtube works fine, remove the hd video display, we have to wait for the flash player updates the rom, maybe you should use the Opera browser.
Hey guys,
Flash didnt work with my 4.0.3 Rom too. The "SOD" wakes up after round about 30 sec in my case, dont reboot so fast.
Working Stuff:
Apparatus
GTA 3 (v. 1.2)
Youtube (not full tested)
Reckless Racing HD
My Issues:
Sound sometimes didnt work after "half SOD"
Wlan Problems (didnt connect to my wlan, after reboot 2 or 3 times its gone, this bug is since the Dexter 0.3 mod)
My Question:
Can i change the Resolution? The HC 0.3 Rom, had the best for my opinion
Anyone try a usb gamepad? This would be awesome with the snes emu
Can i turn off the softkeys?
Can i fix the 180° display rotation from bootup?
I will try some tests and things and give feedback.
best regards
Dave
A guy called Strozzi posted that
Screen rotation: OK but after having enabled it in the trebuched app

Does that fix what you mean?
I find the whole 10 posts before you post in the development section a bit silly. I understand the desire for the forum to not be full of 'noobs' but I registered because I could help with an answer to a question that someone asked. Oh well...
Loving all your reports on ICS tho... going to give it a try once the app store starts showing everything! Photoshop is the main pull for me tho...
It was stable until the slowup and freeze, i think it is useful if u save frequently. It has the core funcions of everything you need in photoshop.
someone write that the flash contend work only with the opera browser, i will test this at the evening.
What i mean with the rotation is, the display looks greater when the screen is 180° rotated
greets

Ah yes, i dont think thats possible to phisically turn the display 180 degrees because of construction... It is the biggest fault in toshiba's development history to use a screen like this...
SO todays testing last update on cm9:
Still no idea on SOD.
I got into a bootloop from a normal power off than power on with wifi
After that loop i used mblasters recovery to reinstall it again...
got into bootloop right after intstall. I did a factory reset to get it started up again.
I got a system up and running again with no apps :S
I dont think this is app related...
I have SOD with the new recovery too. Looks like i'm the only one fighting with SOD. ( my device go to hibernation after 30 sec from screen off and no way to wake it up)
And.... after the first SOD i got into bootloop again... then with a simple restart it is working... i dont know what to do now. Maybe reinstall is not necessary if this happens every now and then...
i got the 2. time a SOD, dunno why its totally random....
Flash didnt work with the Opera Browser. I think i make a fastboot -w shortly and test it again.
Its possible that is the old genovea problem with the 256 mhz and vcore bug, with the SOD?
I think i install a Linux to get some logcat output.
edit: im a dumbass, logcat also available @ adb.exe logcat :/
best regards
Dave
really good job on this rom! Try it with ADW launcher EX and it will run completely smooth!
It's an experimental build and we already have a nearly stable rom, it just needs to improve the performance, add ondemand cpu governor (performance governor has horrible battery life), get flash working, use camera (not really important for me) and we would have the perfect rom!

Someone mentioned in the dev thread that there is no flash version for ICS yet which is why flash isn't working. This true?
As for camera - really not a biggie. They'll only get that working once the source for it is released. Not sure if that is...
The strange thing is that some people are saying this rom is perfect and stable while others are talking about it crashing and going into a bootloop... :/

It's pretty stable for me, I'm using it as "every-day" rom. Flash Player for ICS was released in December, also I've seen it working nicely on a GT-i9000 with 4.0.3 just downloading flash from android market.
I neither care about the camera. I've never used it. Now I rmember another problem on the rom: USB storage (connecting folio to PC) doesn't work.
Well I bit the bullet and have gone to CM9. The rom is great, took a while to get my google account setup (kept getting the unreliable connection error) but overall I was impressed. One SOD but seems way more stable than foliomod and the speed is great.
My only question is... How did you guys get apps on that aren't 'supported'. Two apps that I know work are 'unsupported'. Do I just change the build.prop or are you guys using a different method? Really want photoshop touch and RawVision on my device.
Oh and a small tip, I forgot to wipe when I upgraded and I had a working update from CM7. Only issue was that the market app was broken, but as that's pretty integral I had to wipe...
tested the new build, so far it has he same issues as the previous build, but Wifi lost when tablet is sleeping seems to be fixed! Also I've noticed that multi-mount sdcard app doesn't work now.
new version
I still cannot get the folio out of hibernation in cm9, however i figured out that my total crash message was not real. When freezed, the folio wont boot for a while (30 minutes or so). After about half an hour it is booting like nothing happened. Freezing was a rare thing with r1 now it is regular, so it is not too good. I think battery drain is still problem. Many apps is working corrupted or not work at all, but some other work that not before. Oh and you have to forget flash for now. I think it is still not good for everyday use but it is definitely not far from that. Hold on for 1 more month Nopy pls.
My issuses:
- Power Button needs to be pushed twice or more for wake UP from standby
- camera Shows mutiple (4) live pics, no Video ins possible
- No Market Download works
- home Button (softbutton on the side ) is out off order
- Touchscreen ins a little Bit less sensitive
Flash, gmail, and youtoube works, gapps Form goo-inside ins installed

After instaling last cm9 version with 2.6.39 kernel I can't get rid off SOD...
hi there,
i just installed the new CM9.0.0.0
Great ROM, very good job, everything seems to work fine
Just one thing : i've got something like small electrical discharge when i touch the screen, i can hear the sound of it like static electricity
Am i the only one and what can i do?
Market not working
Hi *,
also installed cm9 with kernel 2.6.29.
A real awesome rom, thank you for the good work!
I have the issue that apps won't install in the market. When trying to download, folio says that an error has occured.
Any hint what could cause this behavior?
I installed the gApps with clockworkmod recovery.
renamed zinfile in update.zip, copied to sdcard
booted into recovery
applied update.zip to recovery.
Apps work, market also but u can't donload any app.
thanks,
Buggi

[Q] [U] Update, Errors and Questions - a beginner needs your help!

Hi xda Community,
at first - BIG THANKS TO ALL OF YOU ACTIVE CUSTOM ROM GUYS!!
With all your FAQs, Videos and postings, you made it possible - and easy - for me, to get rid of the annoying Sony ROM by rooting and installing a custom rom.
Currently I am running CM10 FXP230 on my Xperia U. I know it is not a stable version, but still a great improvement in speed for me and also the first ROM i discovered during my internet research for an alternative to the slow stock sony stuff.
However, i am facing some problems during the daily usage of my phone, perhaps one of you can support me during finding a solution for some of them.
1. Updating ROM
Pretty basic question, just need a confirmaton that i understood it the right way. I download the new Version of the custom rom (e.g.fxp232), copy the zip onto the smartphone and reboot into recovery mode. There i use CMW to first wipe cache and delvik cache, then select and install new version from zip.
Correct way so far?
What about the Google Apps? Do i have to reinstall them too?
Do i have to backup the SD card data and my apps,?
2. The Camera Fix
At the beginning i thought that i could live with an inverted camera due to the fact, that i am not taking many of them with my phone. but during the last weeks i had to face the facts - its important from time to time :cyclops:
During my search in this forum i found a user linking to a file called "FXP231_CM10_CamReverse_Fix".
Does this work only with FXP231, or also earlier and later versions?
How do I install it, like gApps in CMW?
3. Alarm Clock
I am using my phone as an alarm clock almost every day. Its plugged in to recharge during the night. Sometimes the phone crashes during the night time and the alarm is not going off. The display turns dark, no reaction to any button i plress, only the little signal light at the top right is glowing constantly. I have to take out the battery every time and make the same changes in settings over and over again.
Is this the "deepsleep" problem everyone is talking about? Is it connected to the cpu settings - I did select "conservative" there. Whats causing the problem?
4. Dial Pad
Every time i am dialing an unknown number the touchpad is hardly responding. It can take up to 5 minutes to enter all numbers and dial. I already deactivated the T9 contact search, still no improvement. Anyone any similar expieriences?
5.General Custom ROM Question
During my journey through this Community I found out, that there are a lot of different roms available. Some - with only minor changes - based on other custom roms, some based on sony.....whatever. Right now i am totally confused that ROM to use (if the above mentioned problems cant be solved!!)
I just need a quiet fast and reliable ROM to use in daily life - well this is everyones wish i guess......
So what am I doing with my phone? Basically I am just using my phone to call people, use whatsapp, check mails, manage my appointments and take a spontaneus picture from time to time. No Video, Twitter, Facebook, Games and what else is out there...........and no big experiments and time to backup, upgrade and reset my phone stuff every week.
Should I go back to CM9?
Cant I install a "normal google android" rom? Might sound stupid, but isnt there some kind of "pure" rom for all phones, that gives you the same comfort as the sony stock rom (-> update and functionality) ?
Even if there is not THE correct answert to this question, maybe some of you can at least suggest some interesting ROMs, that might fit
uff.....long wall of text, hopefully I could point out my problems good enough to motivate you to spent your time to answer them.

First of all, this is a long question and you must donate me for answering. Haha. Just joking but you need to consider yourself and get experiences.
1. Reboot CWM and install the ROm amd Gapps needs to be reinstalled.
Wipe dalvik cache and cache then reboot. You're updated.
2. It is for FXP231 and so you must install 231 in order to have fixed
3. Go to deepsleep so much in CM10. Some said pretty awesome because it saves battery but it is in deep sleep so you can't really control your phone no more. Like you can't awake in the morning because you are in deep sleep.so hard to wake up. And yes your problem is deep sleep.
4. Use Go Dialer or Touchpal Dialer. Download from Play Store. It will make you better. Stock is still laggy and under development.
5. I run SlimCM which is CM9 and everything works except sound bug and FM Radio. Sound bug can be fix with Viper4Android. Run CM9 which is great, fast and stable.
And I really want to advice you is find out more yourself. It's more getting trouble but you will become more awesome I answer your question short so don't mind me about that but if you need anything, just quote and ask. Bye.

Sorry for asking again, but most times i just dont have the needed phrase to search for - combines with 50+ pages of results it really drives me crazy sometimes. After making a, lets say really stupid mistake, installing the rom in the beginning, it took me almost ages to find the threat to return to the beginning and reinstall it properly.

Thanks a lot for reading and answering my questions anyway, you got yourself a honest "thanks button klick" as a reward :laugh:
Okay, so now i know that "my deepsleep problem" is kind of a reversed version of almost everyone eleses deepsleep problem. Everyone wants his phone to enter deepsleep, i want to prevent that.
Will this app solve the problem? Deep Sleep Battery Saver
I mean, if I can set the phone to "wake up" short before my alarm time it might work, right?
I read something about Apps causing the problem, especially messenger apps. Can anyone verify that information, or is it some random guess?
Edit:
Also I found out, that the Phone should not enter deepsleep while being charged. Unfortunately this seems to happen to mine over and over again.

Sorry for asking again, but most times i just dont have the needed phrase to search for - combines with 50+ pages of results it really drives me crazy sometimes. After making a, lets say really stupid mistake, installing the rom in the beginning, it took me almost ages to find the threat to return to the beginning and reinstall it properly.

DS battery saver is the one for some phones that cannot go into deepsleep. It force the phone to Deep Sleep with some profiles to make your phone not deaf. Good app and I'm using it.
Blah blah blah, anyway, it's the ROM problem I think but you can simply reply FXP's CM10 about the fix No worries. I think you can fix nothing at this stage. And also I thought Alarm app crashing amd screen not waking up is not only the Deep Sleep issues but also the rom bug of excessive Deep Sleep or alarm app not fully functional. Please reply to the rom thread and wait for answer! High Five!!

YP-G70 SGP5 USA cm11 FC issues?

Am having random reboots - just had one mins ago posting reply w/xdafree app here but not sure if ROM related as xda app auto installed itself on sdcard which also caused its icon to disappear from home screen at reboots and this has been found to likely not be ROM related. Also having random power offs and random browser FC. Am running 1200 OC & on demand CPU governor & trying to run as min as poss to save battery. Hardly ever get past 3 days uptime.
Model: YP-G70
Android: 4.4.4 CM11-20140712-UNOFFICIAL-venturi
Kernel: default = 3.0.101-G70UEK18 [email protected] #1 Sat Jul 12 13:13:50 PT 2014
Build#: cm_venturi-userdebug 4.4.4 KTU84P 997e99f83e test-keys
Oclocking on this ROM does lead to some random reboots. Try to go back to default.

Had thought that once before too and tried it but maybe something else was also causing reboots so I went back but will try again thx.

Just had another browser FC just reading news - it froze and finally came back with a dialog box to say browser has stopped running. I tried it again and same thing happened but this time it came back with a dialog box that systemui had stopped. Trying to OK that msg cause it to just loop the same msg over again. I was able to short press the power button to get the power menu to show behind the msg box and in between OKs just enough time to request reboot.

Re: CPU settings - I went back to default = max 1000 & interactive but more random reboots set this way - couldn't get past 18 hrs. So only changed back to ondemand and now going thru 28 hrs so will see....

:what: <grin> Made it to 3 days and so many hours, either 8 or 18, can't recall eventho I just viewed it - thought it might make it thru 4 days for a first - wishful thinking I guess. The app I'm using is called system uptime but doesn't tell how long the last run was. I wasn't really doing anything heavy - reading news - and put it down - a few mins later it auto locked the screen - then a few mins later it just reboots just sitting there!

Just curious if you've tried other KitKat Roms, and if you have, what your experience has been with them. Right now for me, Carbon using the default performance settings has been the most stable and best performing.
No, I haven't. Am new to this thx to dosdude1 and his YouTube vid how to get sgp5 to cm and my constant search how to safely do these flashes. So not complaining about these reboots - its only annoying if ur in the middle of doing something - else can live with it so far - it reboots pretty fast and sometimes only realize it because of uptime. Just curious about it and sharing my experience with it.
Have started looking around at ROMs - I tend to min types and saw carbon & slim & others. But realized I had vid help with my first and now a larger learn curve for next steps. I need to read about ADB & fastboot & TB-pro & kernels & more before considering another safe move - brick fears! But thx for the tip.

One other thing I noticed - apps were newly auto updating for some reason - didn't know it but play store had auto update option on - so turned it off - might help.

Well, I'm not too sure about this, but try keeping overclock off unless your phone is running irritatingly slow. From my experience with the YP-G70 (US) model, there were usually three main factors in those oh - so - annoying random reboots: 1) there are some mischievous, misbehaving apps running, 2) the phone is being overclocked, or 3) the ROM you currently have is buggy or not working properly. I think your problem is probably a combination of 2 and 3. Hope this post helped

Yes this helps. Would love to try a new ROM too but still in learning mode. I wanna get good w/TiBu.
I stopped using system uptime app and found device uptime (has a log file & no widget) and got to 5 days before reboot. Thought using the orig app might've been contributing but only got to 1 or 2 days max after & one more random power down.
But I realized system uptime app was still installed and, even though not running it directly, it was maybe still running in background. So I uninstalled it completely to see if this app was poss a factor for now.

I have been running Carbon on my Player 5.0 (YP-G70) for the past 3 months without a hiccup. Excellent battery life and very smooth. The OP may want to give that a try.
I liked Carbon so much, I put it on my Player 4.0 (YP-G1) and my Tab 7.0 Plus (GT-P6210).

The best way to learn is by doing.
First of all, make a nandroid backup so you have a safety net in case things go wrong. Then you can try flashing another ROM.
If you don't like it, just restore and try something else.
Good luck!

Need stability, please help (on CM11 and Boeffla kernel right now)

While trying to get rid of the TW bloat, I bumped into CM11 installer-version, 6 months ago. It was great at first, somewhat unstable though: with the occasional Camera won't start issue and a lot of the Bluetooth restarting. Also Instagram video-upload didn't work and sadly I use that stuff for work
Months passed by and the installer version never got updated so I figured I would try the latest CM11 snapshot version + Boeffla Kernel.
So I did. Step by step. Erased and wiped everything and started from scratch. I'm 3 weeks in and let me tell you, I'm ready to go back to Touchwiz. The every-now-and-then camera bug is now a certainty every time I open the camera app. I get these black screens every now and then when loading the "big" apps (facebook, myfitnesspal, stuff like that). Sometimes it freezes for a solid 5 seconds. That never happened before. Slow, yes, but a black screen and nothing, never. Bluetooth is better though.
I don't know if it is the Kernel or the ROM that's doing this. But either way, I need to stop it. I've tried 3 governors (PegasusQ, zzmoove and PegasusQPlus) but the lags and the black screens on keep coming.
Can anyone help? Is it an option to go back to CM11 installer? Best way to do it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[HARDWARE PROBLEM REPORT] WebGL issue triggering freeze/complete reboot

Note: this is another issue reporting thread. In case of duplicate or forum location problem, consider (re)moving my post.
Hello,
Months ago I noticed a weird issue in the internal browsing system of the SM-G361F
When I browse to a website using the WebGL integrated API (for exemple: https://get.webgl.org/ ) the displayed shape gets glitchy. Nothing really strange first, just some random blink or short frame flashbacks. But after a time (generally above 30 seconds) the shape become more and more glitchy until the kiss of death: the whole phone process freezes, as nothing respond anymore, then the screen gets shady on some parts and bright on the other, until a kind of bar come across the screen and the phone make a complete reboot without any transition.
I already experienced such thing a year ago, but that was due to a bad root flash that triggered the freeze on any root access request.
The other strange thing is that I discovered it when I ran a web code displaying an "holographic" shape: however, the code worked fine the first times, and I did it long ago; so would this be due to a bad firmware flash or a system harm?
If you own like me a SM-G361F device and are not easily scared (this issue normally doesn't harm the device, it will just freeze and reboot) you can test it by opening the link to the WebGL official website.
Sharing experience about this potential issue would be appreciated.
I also had this issue. I experienced severe jitter in videos, and gifs in the web browser. It seemed to occur randomly, and would sometimes stop after a little while.
I didn't experience the device crashes though, but fixed the video by downgrading "android webview"
Sorry for late reply.

Hello mate!
I must tell you that this happens not only on your device but on SM-G360H Varient too.
In the last 2-3 days i figured it also happens due to high CPU usage and the Kernel goes into panic mode.
Try disabling Kernel panic from apps like LSpeed and see if it helps!
Thanks!

1 more.
If you are on a custom ROM, then remove the AOSP webview for root -> system -> apps -> Webview. And then install Google webview from the playstore and convert to system app(optional).
It may fix the random crashes and freezes. It does freeze but no more crashes
