Is anyone else getting random reboots on AW2? - Asus ZenWatch 2

I've noticed a couple times now that my watch is randomly rebooting or hanging since the upgrade to AW2. I did a factory reset, which improved things a bit (no hanging), but I still get the occasional RR. It appears to be related to charging, as it generally happens when I plug it in at night.
It's not a killer, but I'm wondering if it is just my watch, or if others have noticed it.

So far I have not seen either of these issues. However I did an immediate factory reset upon installing the 2.0 update. But only 50 hrs since install of 2.0 so will continue to monitor.

I've had AW 2 for 6 days and no random reboots in that time.

Well this is fun. I guess I need to blow it away and refresh it, maybe clean the contacts. I have had to restart nearly every day this week since the update.

Still no random reboots here.

I've been getting these as well. Just out of curiosity, does your watch reboot into recovery, and then reboot back into AW after a shirt time period?

No, when it happens it reboots into AW immediately. In effect, it goes black, then shows the ASUS animation like it got restarted. I did clean the pins and I haven't seen it since, though. It may be that AW2 doesn't care for the intermittent power when you first attach the cable.

My zenwatch 2 has started constantly rebooting until it quickly drains the battery after aw2. It is completely unusable. I have a 2yr warranty through best buy and am likely going to return it if I cannot find a solution.

Have you guys done a factory reset since the update?
It took a factory reset and then calibrating the battery sensor after the upgrade for mine to settle down..

Mine settled down after a factory reset, but it still crashes if the cord is loose (too many power events). It also drains significantly faster than it used to. I have been getting home with 62% instead of the usual 75%. Not terrible, but not great either.
I do like AW2 overall, though.

Random reboot-solved, hope this helps someone.

I know more than a little about Android. I've been hacking and Romming since back in 2007. Last Friday my 3D started rebooting randomly. I tried everything I know. Reflashed different ROMs, same thing. Reflashed the aio 2.17 update. Same thing. reflashed recovery(twrp), same thing. Got 4ext and flashed that, same thing. I didn't know what else to do. Copied all the card to PC, reformatted and copied back, same thing. I had some clues, the GB ROM i was running (CleanROM Reborn) would sometimes report 0% battery. It also would almost never reboot on the charger,
I installed a fresh ROM (MeanROM ICS) and all seemed fine till it randomly factory reset while I was at a gig Sat night!! A week or so ago I was in Austin and left it charging in the car and went swimming. When I got back the battery was reporting overheat. I cooled it off with the AC vent and all seemed well. A few days later, I had a bootloop, thought it was the kernel and did a battery pull. Somehow I must have gotten something on the contacts or didn't seat the battery. I pulled the phone out of my otterbox today and cleaned the contacts and put it back in. powered it up, haven't had a problem since (knock on wood) I'm planning now to get a replacement battery in case I fried mine but only time will tell. I hope this info will help someone at least try the simple stuff first without all the headaches I've had the past 4 days.
This issue happened to my evo 3D : it turned off without reasons.
Sometimes, the battery icon became grey so impossible to see the battery level and few minutes after, it turned off.
One day, it turned off and impossible to power up. I sent it to the repair center and the issue came from battery and other components (contacts with the battery). After other comments on the internet, I'm not the one to met this problem so if it can help you I think that some evo 3d have this issue natively.
PS : sorry for the possible mistake in this message, my english is so bad
to fix random reboots, power off your phone to clear the cache, remove the battery for 30 seconds, place it back in, and power it up. Once it boots up completely, reboot your phone (don't shut down just restart). You should be good. This clears up the bad cache that causes rebooting.

Good post. Yes, I can see this happening for sure. My battery seems a little loose but I have not had this problem. If it turns out I ever do, then this would be my first guess.
I once had an Acura Legend that for no reason would just stall on the road and die. It was very irritating. One time had to have it towed. I had it in two different garages and neither one of them could fix it and told me there was no problem. But sure enough it happened again. The problem was intermittent.
I had it towed again home to my driveway. I'm sittin in it and thinking. For some reason I started jiggling the keys in the ignition and it would start and stall just by doing that. It was a bad ignition switch. I had never had one go bad before. I replaced it myself and all was well.
I went back to one the garages I took it to and told them I found the problem and what it was. The guy said yeah I knew that was the problem and said he told me so. I could have strangled the guy. Never happened that he told me that. They had even charged me $75.00 for fixing nothing. I never went back to that garage. The other garage I didn't bother telling.
Anyway, your battery problem reminded me of all that. Something I'd rather forget about. Thanks.

Yes that would be q normal fix. I tried clearing cache and dalvik AND flashed ROMs and the problem persisted. So far, it's stayed solved. I settled in MeanROM ICS, which I highly recommend btw and have had no reboots that I didn't initiate. I just thought it wierd that a hardware issue would manifest itself that way.
Freeza's All-in-one firmware update helped me as well:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21374142#post21374142
The OP has described my experience to a T. In fact I tried all of those things in that exact order.
I have always suspected the battery but I have tried moving it around in the compartment with the phone on and can't force a reboot. Plus, when mine reboots, the screen freezes for a few seconds, which tells me it hasn't lost power and is most likely a corruption or fault of some kind.
Since upgrading the Kernel I have had less reboots, but it sill randomly happens once a week.
This has been true for 4 different ROMs now.
I have other thoughts that this is either an app crashing the kernel or my cpu can't tolerate even default speeds. None of which I have tested yet.
So friggin annoying!

Yeah, the kernel has something to do with the random reboots too. I had it with some of the dodava kernels. It would happen after unplugging from the charger. I did notice that right before, there would be touchscreen issues. Lag mostly in sipping between homescreen panels or opening apps.

hwat do u mean with "cleaned the contacts" deleted all or what? i have same issue random reboots daily! and make me sick
I cleaned the battery contacts. A Q-tip and alcohol to remove any crud. Let it dry, and put the battery back in making sure not to touch the contacts.

thx man, how this wil work, i have random reboots on every rom especialy when phone is in my pocket, but also when stays on desk, so random shutdown/reboot, also i tryed change kernel but without success, mybe this would help, thx for advice.. cheers from croatia
If you guys are not running current firmware/radios I would check that also. I've had that cause random reboots for me in the past and it took me forever to figure it out...

Yeah, I'm running proper firmware for my ROM. That was one of the things I tried when I was figuring out wth was happening. My biggest clue was radical difference in battery level on reboots and the system ui battery reporting crashing. I knew then it wasn't the firmware.

[Q] Phone won't turn on

Hey guys,
Last night I plugged in my LGOG right before I went to sleep. About seven hours later I woke up, woke it up to check the time, then fell back to sleep. When I woke up again a few hours later, my phone was completely dead. No lights go on when charging, nor does it go into the charging mode that happens when the phone is off but charging. The power button does nothing at all. Connecting it to a computer does nothing. I have tried two different wall chargers and a USB plug, and have tried different outlets. The phone is rooted and unlocked. I haven't put any new apps or anything on the phone recently, however I have had a slight overheating issue lately. I don't think that that's what caused the issue though, as when I woke up for the first time and woke it up, the phone was not noticeably hot, and seemed to work fine. Any ideas or suggestions?
Edit: As suddenly as it stopped working, it has started working again, about two hours later. The notification sound buzzed, my phone turned on, and usual on start things happened. However I'm still extremely worried about it. Now that it's on, I assume there's more I can do to figure out the issue- suggestions?
These phones are terribly buggy when charging/when they die, IMO. Worst Android device I've ever had in that respect.
Probably just a fluke, tbh.
Unfortunately it happened again- sent a message, put my phone away, when I tried to turn it on again nothing happened and it stopped working for five minutes.
Apologies for not mentioning this before, but I am using carbonrom, not stock. I've used it for several months with no issues, and have used the latest build for a week or two now without this issue.

Reboot into recovery and wipe cache+dalvik
Maybe the rom needs a little cleaning
Sent from my CM10.2 OGE973
Tried wiping cache and dalvik, but didn't seem to solve the issue. Then my phone started having an issue it's had once before- it turns on for a few seconds, then the screen goes grey for about a minute, then returns to being on. After returning to being on, it acts like it's just started up- ie, there's superuser grant notifications, cpu set notifications, and all sorts of other stuff I usually see on boot. It essentially rendered my phone unusable, so I restored an earlier backup. This seems to have resolved it for now, I may have to wait before updating carbon again.

Either you have a bad phone (possible, LG seems to have some QC issues based on some of the crazy reports Ive heard fm other people on this forum [Mine's fine]), or it's all the startup **** that you have going.
Do you usually let it discharge to below 5%?
that's a stupid idea with any device, and seems to be especially damaging to our LGOG.

Have mine 2months been careful not to let the battery shut down on its own but thirds past Monday my car charger weren't bad and the phone shut down. Would not except a charge after that. Went to att and they sent me to a service center. They could not charge it either. They replaced it, now making sure my external battery backup its always charged. Do not want to do that again.
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
That sounds like that could actually be the issue. On the previous iteration of carbon I almost never allowed it to go below about 10%. However the new update seemed to be harsher on battery life and it slipped into the 1% range several times...
same thing happened to me running root box with no tweaks or anything. I woke up and the phone was off, been that way for two days now. it wasn't on the charger so its definitely possible that it died. I actually found this thread because I could've sworn there was a report of someone who had to do a battery pull. I'm thinking that's my only option now.

Moto Z update ruined phone

Ok I've had the Moto Z for a while and its a great phone. Or it was until a few weeks ago. In the space of a couple of weeks a few official updates were sent to my phone and thinking nothing of it I updated as requested. The last update has seriously messed the phone up.
Problems since the update:-
- Battery drain now has the phone running out in about 10 hours. This problem seems to be intermittent, the majority of the time it happens and drains the phone quickly but not all of the time and usually its Android OS using between 25-50%. Also safe mode has no effect on the problem.
- Phone speaker stops working. Start the phone up and its working, but after a undetermined amount of time (no more than a hour or so) the speaker no longer works. If I get a call I have to turn on speaker phone to be able to hear anyone. Reset the phone and it works normally, only to happen again soon after.
- Phone charging stops working. Again start the phone and plug in the charger and it works fine. But after its charged, again after a undetermined amount of time, charge no longer works. Plug the charger in and the phone indicates its charging with the little light coming on at the top. But nothing else on the phone indicates its charging and the battery continues to drain. Reset the phone and suddenly it chargers normally. Same thing then happens again given time.
What I've tried to do about it:-
- I've tried running in safe mode, which makes no difference
- I've tried a full reset, which makes no difference
- I even unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom OS (Lineage). Thinking that obviously this will wipe out the new update from Lenovo and the phone would have to work properly again. But no, nothing changes, somehow Lenovo have done something beneath the OS that's causing these problems.
The question:-
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this or have you at least seen these issues before?
I fail to gasp what is the purpose of the topic and I don't see a question.... If you're looking for compassion, I think the internet is the wrong place.
If you're sure that the problems is the updates, downgrade to the latest version that worked well for you. Since you've already unlocked the bootloader, try any of the variety of roms available here to verify you don't have a hardware problem.

The point of my post is obvious, I've got a issue with my phone and want to know if anyone has seen this issue with the Moto Z before and if they have any idea what may fix it. The question is right there near the end:
"Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this or have you at least seen these issues before?"

Honestly don't know how my post was unclear at all, but I've gone and tried to make it even more clear with a quick edit, hope that helps.
I have exactly the same problem. For me it occurred after updating to nougat. So fare I tried nearly everything. Disabling nearly everything to the bare minimum, custom ROMs, resetting, trying to flash only parts of the Android 6 firmware (modem, Bluetooth, DSP) since a complete downgrade is not possible, using all kinds of battery tools with a rooted device, using custom kernels... I always ended up with a constant battery drain of 3 to 8 percent per hour no matter what I did. Same in flight modus. Since under Android 6 the device didn't show this behavior I think that the problem must be somewhere in the firmware beneath the OS level. An the cruel thing is that sometimes without a reason for maybe an hour or two my moto z doesn't drain an works fine so that I do not believe in a hardware problem.
Thanks for the post. Yeah it seems like something has been changed underneath the OS. I know that sometimes memory config gets changed with newer Android operating systems (at least I think so?), but could that cause all these problems?
BTW, do you have all three of the problems I mentioned? Battery drain, sound stops working and charging stops working?
Since in this condition the Moto z is not really usable for me I switched back to my old phone and I am not using it that much as a daily device, I cannot really tell about sound or charging problems. So far I did not notice those problems.

I feel like battery life is a bit worse than with M, but I didn't experience anything as bad as you did. I switched to a custom ROM after updating to 7.0.1

I've never seen anything like it before. Its so random as well. I mean yesterday I rebooted and then charged the phone before I left for Football at 4pm. At about 11pm that night I heard the battery low sound (45% of the battery had be used by Android OS..). First thing I thought of was that usually the phone wouldn't still be making sounds by now. Since as I said earlier usually the speaker stops working along with charging within a hour or so of a reboot and this had been over 7 hours without a reboot. So I tried plugging it in and it started to charge. But then when I woke up this morning again the sound was disabled and it won't charge, it just took longer for the problem to occur this time..
How can we stop asking to update to this patch?
I has already disabled this on the developer preferences but still asking every 10 minutes
Any suggest please
Mine even worst. Battery drain fast and mobile away very warm. It suddenly reboot and shown low battery. Battery drain from 50 to 3 percent in a second! Have you guy come across this?

Yep I've also had that as part of my problem, though it had only happened a few times over the course of the month so I forgot about it with all the other problems I mentioned going on.
Basically my phone would be sitting on, say 40%, and after a reboot it would start up in the single digits.
I recently tried changing to a custom kernel to see if maybe that was causing the problem (I'd already tried changing OS). But all the problems are still there using the new kernel. Think my next step should be to try to go back to a 7.0 Android version. Are there any custom Android ROMs using 7.0?
It is said that the Motorola Manager can rescuer lost data even if the data has been covered on phone , is it true ?
Just curious what came of this. My Z, unrooted, has started running crazy hot and the battery life is not good. 6-10 hours. When I connect it to my Anker PowerDrive 2 in the car, the battery actually discharges faster or I get the slow charge warning.
Hi I have exactly the same problems as the op and tried resetting to no avail.Its driving me nuts.
Short update about the massive battery drain problem: like I wrote above, in the past weeks I tried everything from custom kernels to custom roms, resetting, deleting and so on. Nothing helped. So I went back to stock and didn't use the phone the last weeks. Today I read in an other thread about bluetooth problems that a fix for the not working bluetooth was to activate flight mode, restart the phone and deactivate flight mode. So I activated flight mode, pressed the power button for 10 seconds or so until the phone restarted an deactivated flight mode. And now the absolute strangest thing happened: for the last 5 hours the phone lost 0% battery in standby with wifi and lte on. Since I did all the mentioned things above without any effect I do not understand this at all but right now I think that this could be a (temporally) fix also for the battery drain problem.

Weird battery/crashing issue

My phone has developed a strange problem in the last week or so. Basically, it crashes randomly. Turns completely off, and when I try to turn it on again, it assures me the battery is dead by flashing the empty battery symbol. The problem is, the battery is not dead at all. This has happened at charge levels of ~30% up to almost 60%.
When I plug the phone into a charger, it suddenly shows that it's back at the original 57% or whatever and charges, turns on, and operates normally. It's like plugging it in "reminds" it that everything's okay.
Slightly before this, it also developed a problem where all my widgets often disappear after any dead battery shutdown, but this doesn't happen every time.
It's a factory unlocked E5823 on AT&T, currently on Android version 7.1.1. Some Googling around revealed people having a lot of problems with it in July, but I don't even remember when I got that update. It was definitely a while before this issue started, and other people's issues don't sound like mine. The change that most closely coincides with the onset of this problem is me installing Animal Crossing Pocket Camp. I'm not sure how that would mess with the basic operation of my phone, however.
Thoughts? If the battery was just dying, it would actually drain charge, not falsely crash the phone while really full of juice, I thought, but am I wrong? I haven't felt the need to root this phone, but I'm not at all opposed, either, if it'll help. Should I root it and reset batterystats, see if that helps?

--yep mine too. I'm thinking it has to do with the heaying problem. Mine crashes and dies when there are many apps running/ wifi on with downloads while watching youtube., etc. another is when I recprd videos at 4k pr 720p for about 8-10 mins. My phone heats up real hard. I'll try resetting it and hopefully this fixes it. ps. Haven't done anything to my z5c yet. no unlocked bootloader, no root.,etc.
Same problem
I had the same problem
Device have charge (50,60,70 or more), show 0% and turn off.
Hardware problem maybe ???
any solution found?
hi,
I know it's been a long time you posted this but I'm currently facing that exact same problem.
Could you find any solution in the end?
Thanks

Turns completely off, and when I try to turn it on again, it assures me the battery is dead by flashing the empty battery symbol. The problem is, the battery is not dead at all. This has happened at charge levels of ~30% up to almost 60%.
When I plug the phone into a charger, it suddenly shows that it's back at the original 57% or whatever and charges, turns on, and operates normally. It's like plugging it in "reminds" it that everything's okay.
Slightly before this, it also developed a problem where all my widgets often disappear after any dead battery shutdown, but this doesn't happen every time.
It's a factory unlocked E5823 on AT&T, currently on Android version 7.1.1. Some Googling around revealed people having a lot of problems with it in July, but I don't even remember when I got that update. It was definitely a while before this issue started, and other people's issues don't sound like mine. The change that most closely coincides with the onset of this problem is me installing Animal Crossing Pocket Camp. I'm not sure how that would mess with the basic operation of my phone, however.
Thoughts? If the battery was just dying, it would actually drain charge, not falsely crash the phone while really full of juice, I thought, but am I wrong? I haven't felt the need to root this phone, but I'm not at all opposed, either, if it'll help. Should I root it and reset batterystats, see if that helps?

It looks like your battery is just dying. This was a common issue with Nexus 6p and other phones.
Resetting batterystats won't help... it doesen't have anything to do with it

Reboot while charging

I have two V60s on A11 and noticed for the past two nights one of them will reboot while charging. Only way I notice is because I have to use my PIN in morning to login in instead of fingerprint and one app indicates a restart. This is a replacement V60 that I have had for two days.
Any thoughts?
Are you sure that it's a reboot? I noticed that if I leave my phone idle for a couple of hours (not sure how many, maybe 4 or more?), some kind of security kicks in requiring that I enter my pattern instead of using the fingerprint reader. Pretty sure this has happened both on Android 10 and Android 11. I don't commonly leave my phone idle for 4+ hours during the day, but it has happened just enough for me to notice it. And it definitely wasn't a case of the phone just randomly rebooting itself on me in the middle of the day. THAT, I would have noticed.
Positive it is a reboot. I actually saw it happen this morning. Phone will just shut off and T-Mobile reboot splash screen comes on. I think it is not related to fingerprint reader bug as I have disabled the fingerprint reader on my lock screen/AOD.
Actually been noticing it happens now even when the phone is not charging. I wish there was a way to see which app is causing the problem or get some kind of log to know what is going on.
Hmmm, other than trying to isolate which app is causing the problem, I'd probably suggest a factory reset.
I actually removed all apps and left with factory defaults and it still rebooted during a charge. I have sent the phone back and awaiting a replacement. (This one was the 2nd year promise replacement for a dying G8)
I had to ship the phone back and get a replacement. Everything I tried did not work to stop reboot while charging.
My LG started to freeze, then reboot several times a day, while in use as well as overnight. Sometimes boot loops directly after the logo, so not OS or app related, also without SIM or SD. I had the battery changed (still in warranty), but that behavior continued. So I got a replacement phone yesterday, since it was obviously a hardware issue (I guess it is a RAM failure).
