Tablet freezes and restarts itself after Marshmallow update - Xperia Z4 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
Last week my Z4 received the Android 6.0 update. I have installed it normally and now it appears a message saying to "Google Play Services wont run unless I update it". I cliched on the notification which sent me to Play store and start updating Google Play services. The problem is after a while, he tablet freezes and restarts itself and the process repeats over and over again. Most of the time, before restart the notification light turns red and blinks for some seconds.
Any ideas.?
The tablet is 100% stock.

Red led means kernel panic. Seem strange for the device which doesn't have root. Maybe factory reset fixes the problem?

Try and do a factory reset of the tablet: Settings\backup & reset\factory data reset\reset. If that doesn't work, another method can be tried.

[Solved] [Q] LG G2 mini problems after OTA update to KOT49I.A1403689895

Hi
My LG G2 mini is acting a bit weird after the OTA update to firmware build KOT49I.A1403689895.
There are 2 main problems:
Sometimes when the phone rings and the answering options are shown, the touch screen stops functioning and I have to lock the phone by pushing the power button and unlock it again before I can answer the call.
When phone is being charged, alarm gets automatically snoozed. This only happens when the mobile is connected to the charger. I've installed another alarm clock app and didn't have the same problem with it.
Neither of these problems existed before the latest update.
I'm not sure if it's happening only to me or it's a bug in the firmware.
I wish I could undo the update. Any ideas?
When that update rolled out?
Mine still use the old firmware..
Hope will be fixed soom from LG..
Problems, too.
I don't know if it's normal, but after the last update (Slovakia) I have got several problems with multitasking. It is kind of impossible to listen to music and browse the internet. The music just shuts down after 10 seconds of browsing the internet. Also sometimes the browser (the normal one and chrome) just shut down and all the phone does is show me the menu with applications out of nowhere.

I had this problem since I installed applications Greenify. When i uninstall it problem gone
Solved
Hi
It seems the problem is caused by the feature "detecting OK Google from any screen". To fix the problem open google search app, go to Settings > Voice > "OK Google" Detection and uncheck "From any screen" option.

[Q] My phone keeps freezing and shuts down usually when using google services

Hi everyone. I was having my s3 I9300 (stock rom; never rooted before) for like 2 years & with no flaw. Two weeks ago, I noticed that after it gets really battery low, the screen starts flickering weird horizontal lines, but it never freezes and shuts off.
However, 2 days ago, I was downloading something using the stock browser (blue earth icon), soon after, i turned the wifi off only to find out that my downloading was still going (downloading some album from tusfile.com) then in a blink of an eye, the moment I immediately turned it back on, the screens starts showing "flickering movement (just horizontal lines)" then immediately freezed. I was waiting for like 50 minutes, then decided to remove the battery.
After putting it back, then turned it on, "flickering" then freezes, then shuts itself off (i repeated the cycle twice or thrice, but it keeps doing the same sh*t) . After 10 minutes without putting the battery, i put it back in, turned it on. But this time, as soon as it got turned on, i immediately locked the screen by pressing the power button once (i just turned the screen off just to make the screen black)
After 10 minutes, i decided to use it again & everything was fine. The moment i tried the app "screen filter" just to darken the screen up, then the whole sh*t started again. I will never use that app again.
After 10 minutes of removing the battery, switched to recovery mode (in that mode, That green android was seemed lying down, it says "no command", & with a big red exclamation mark, he seemed dead) then I wiped the "cache partition", then factory reseted it, turned it on & everything was okay.
Since my phone was factory reseted, I download some app (Google Keep) and that app wanted me to update "Google Play Service". I was updating it fine, after it reached 87%, the whole sh*t started again but this time, I TOTALLY CANT TURN THE SYSTEM ON AGAIN!, unless i clear the "cache partition", then turned it on again. I repeated the cycle again, then decided to stop rely on Google Play again.
Then whole same thing happened when i was using G mail. Then Google Play. Then Play Service.
Shall I root my phone? Flash it to "CM12.1?
Thank you very much.

My phone just died

I got my Xiaomi Redmi 3 in the middle of october 2016. Since then i've been using it every day. It had minor problems, like music app sometimes turns off by itself, data connection didn't want to turn on only with phone restart, but nothing major, that couldn't be temporarily fixed. But a few days ago i just wanted to browse instagram, i opened the app, and it just turned off instantly. So i tried reinstalling it. Nothing changed. I then tried to install an older version of the app. Still no change. So i decided to leave it be. I was talking to my father, that it should be reflashed because there is something wrong with it. He just pressed regular restart on it, but after that the phone died. I mean it died. It does not respond to charging, connecting to usb, pressing any existing combination of the three buttons. The screen and the status LED does not light up even for a bit. I tried to reflash it anyway with methods specifically for this situation, but it doesn't work either. In the flash tool installation of the rom just does not start. I think it's because my pc does not accept the driver, even from the official website, it just says in the device manager, that it's Android and it has that little yellow triangle. So it is visible for my PC through USB but no driver is accepted. What should i do?
Replace to new phone or carry your phone to customer service, but hey it's xiaomi
This wont help with your phone, but just wanted to leave a note for others. I was having the same issue with the Instagram app. I reinstalled the app, wiped caches, upgraded my ROM, downgraded the app, every tried a entriely differnet ROM. Nothign worked. Instagram would just crash a few seconds after opening. Really weird.
Heres how i fixed it: go to Airplane mode, open the app, logout, turn off airplane mode, log back in.
rarely fc it's okay. but when got often it's a major issue. might be emmc needs to be fixed

"Unfortunately, Youtube has stopped working" SPAM

I started receiving this today. When I click "OK" the message bounces back up almost immediately, like a spam.
If I wait for 10-15 minutes and then press "OK" button, then I have maybe 5 seconds time window until message appears again.
Same happens when I click "Try to solve".
Earlier today I had a notification something like "Youtube app might harm your phone".
I tried restarting and plugging out battery, didn't help.
I didn't really bother with that since I own Lenovo k3 note with factory settings and I had adware for a long time. So I thought that was just a missinformation.
P.S. I'm not sure what exactly version of Android is currently installed on my phone and now I can't really check either...
Lenovo phone, says it all. Unfortunately Youtube is a system file on Lenovo so when it hangs you cannot access anything else.
Remove the battery and leave alone for roughly 5 minutes, this lets any caps to discharge so the phone has to restart from boot.
try starting the phone again, if this doesn't work, try doing a factory reset.

[Video] Cannot finish "android setup" on huawei p20 pro

Bought it new a couple of days ago. Its all running fine.
There just one thing in notifications that I can't complete... "Android setup" Basically it does a few things then gets to "adding the finishing touches" then gets stuck in this loop of restarting this part for about 2 mins until it stops amd dissapears until it pops up in notifications again.
I have tried clearing the cache and data of "android setup". Forced stop and restarted phone immediately after but doesn't help.
I realise it is not a major issue amd I could probably disable the notification for this but I would like to see it complete. Any ideas?
I imagine it may be tied to some other processes or something that may also need attention.
The phones firmware is fully up to date btw.
PS have just realised i am not allowed to post my link unfortunately. Maybe can message me for it.
