Hi all.. I just got the padfone x a few days ago and I am noticing very odd behavior with the iHeartRadio app and was wondering if anyone else has noticed the same thing. When I first installed IHR it worked just fine. I was able to use it in both phone and tablet mode without a problem. Now whenever I try launching the app I get an error that says that the app has been disabled and does not work in phone mode. I went so far as to actually completely reset my phone and start over from scratch. That fixed it for a day and now it is doing it again. I made sure that the app was not active for dynamic display and it is not. In fact it doesn't even show up under the app list there. It does show up under my settings menu under installed apps. I deleted the cache and data for the app and it didn't change anything. I installed the iHeartRadio Auto app to see if that would work and it works just fine both ways. If I dock my phone to the tablet then the regular iheartradio app opens just fine.
Has anyone else encountered this error? I did try to reboot the phone, restore it, remove the app, and then tried installing it again. That was the worst thing I could do as it wouldn't even install again from the play store. I got an error saying it was not able to be used from phone mode then got a -10 install error and it wouldn't install. Very frustrating.
Right now it is installed but can only be used in tablet mode. Thoughts?? Thanks ?

Same issue, my first time opening the app with the phone this happened. Very frustrating.
Have you found a solution since then? Auto is better than nothing, besides I only listen with headphones.
Im going to see what happens when I message them.
I ended up getting frustrated and exchanged the phone for something else. Definitely a problem with Android on that specific model since no other phone since demonstrated the same behavior. Good luck!

To start off, I am on UnNamed 1.0.4
I was wondering if anyone else experiences this problem im having. Basically, if i open the music app and select a sound effect it works just fine while the app is running. When i exit the app or restart the phone, it resets back to the stock normal selection. It never holds the selection i choose and i have to choose it everytime i open the app.
another app that does something similar to this is the web browser. I can turn on google instant from the google homepage, but if i exit the browser or restart the phone, it resets back to off.
Im not 100 percent sure, but i dont think i had this problem while running stock.
anyone else experiencing this or know how to fix it?
edit: another issue i have is i do not receive google+ notifications. I have tried multiple roms and clearing data and everything i can think of but i still dont get them when i got them perfectly fine running stock.
So, I have an unrooted i9100 with 4.1.2 Android version.
Before last night, everything was working fine on my mobile. The thing was I wanted to download youtube videos on phone directly and I installed an app for it. When I tried downloading via it, it stopped around 50%. I tried resuming the download and even restarting it but somehow (and I think each one of us, has seen it some time or the other), a download was stuck in notification bar with no progress. When it kept happening for a long time, I went to its App Info (download manager) and i think I forced stop and disabled it as well (don't remember what I did first. But I had to do the other since, the download thing didn't disappear from notification bar after the first move). After that, I noticed that my play store kept giving that "no connection - retry" thing and dolphin browser "web page unavailable, is your connection dry". But my wifi was working properly since I could easily connect to my laptop and work on it. The more ridiculous fact was that WhatsApp worked.
So, I kept looking for the solution online and there didn't appear to be anything similar to my problem. I did stumble upon a Cyanogenmod website and just found some words like never disable download manager because if you do, you might have to root again or something similar to that. When I saw that, I thought I would have to factory rest. So, I did backup of my data and reset it. The thing is the problem still exists. Frustrating thing is that for one, I can't surf internet on browser, nor download my apps I had previously (especially the paid license ones which don't exist in apk) and update them.
So, I don't really know what can be done in this situation. Do I have to root my phone? I don't really want to, because my past experience with them had not been good while installing new custom roms. But is it unavoidable at this stage?
Edit: I also remembered that I tried using mobile data to open play store. My connection was too slow to open the page, but the "no connection" was not being displayed in the home page so it might have been trying to load.
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 there Guys,
so, I am desperate enough with this issue, that I'd actually pay the one who fixes it for me.
If you need specific infos, let me know what and where to find. Cuz I'm hella stupid with this stuff.
Bought a Samsung S9+ on Amazon. (should work just fine)
Model Number: SM-G965F/DS
Here we go, (try to remember as much as possible, as its 1 year ago)
since I can't live without root, I did do so by the magisk method. I think it didn't work so well, cuz there were system issues. Couldn't boot anymore. Thought I "bricked" it.
I managed to factory reset and boot it again, with an operating system I downloaded from google results, of which I thought was the correct one for this model. (problem might be here? Wrong OS? If so, where and what exactly do I have to download?) Its kinda bs to me, that there are different versions depending on the country etc.
Lets continue:
Managed to successfully root it then. Everything worked fine. Samsung s9+ rooted.
After a short while, I encountered the issue I am facing since then.
Problem:
My Samsung is rebooting every day. Suddenly turns black, reboot with Samsung Logo. Fun fact, all tabs are still opened in the background afterwards. (no real reboot?)
Happens when:
- time is not fixed. Anytime possible.
- even when I'm not using it. (but mostly)
- Even while video recording. Not app specific. (I always keep only one app open btw.)
- sometimes when it happens while I use Instagram, I'm logged out of Instagram afterwards. (not sure if it happened with Facebook, but might) (I use Insta a lot, Facebook almost never)
Solutions I tried.
- Empty cache. (I think I tried it the correct way.)
- Factory reset
Not confident in the app issue belief, that I'd uninstall every single app for 2 days each.
Assumption:
I don't feel/think its one app. If so, maybe Instagram? But shouldn't be the case though. As said, I always close all apps after I put down my phone.
Maybe its the OS? What do i know..I'm a scrub.
Help highly appreciated. The reboots are driving me crazy and are tremendously inconvenient sometimes.

Reasons to Cause Android Phones Keep Restarting
1. Corrupted data in memory.
2. Incompatible third-party apps.
3. Outdated cached data.
4. Hardware issue.
Boot Android into Safe Mode
Safe Mode is a good place to help you to track down the causes of problems occurring on your Android phone. Once you boot your phone into safe mode, all third-party apps installed on your device will be got rid of. In this mode, check if your phone still keeps restarting without any reason. In case the problem disappears, then a third party app is the main cause of the problem. All you need is to find out and delete it from your phone.

So I assume if the problem still persists in safe mode, its a firmware issue?
I'll try the wiped cache now until it reboots again. If so, then safe mode.
safe mode (no apps) just seems hard as I use my phone for work and the issue appears randomly within 48 hours..
--- Instead of safe mode, would be the same if I just uninstall for example a few apps for a certain time?
--- I read about a master reset. Wouldnt the simpliest and 100% working method be to just reset the phone with a new firmware? Which I can download where?
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
