I am using CM7 latest weekely every thing is perfect but now suddenly my phones screen turns on like call is coming and turns back off after 2 sec and this happens randomly.
is this expected behavior?
is there any work around?
My fiancee has an atrix that is totally stock and hers just started doing this yesterday. I would also like to know the answer to this. I was thinking it was a hardware issue with the power button but hopefully i am wrong, that way I dont have to mess with a warranty exchange. Any help would be appreciated.
by any chance have u just start using this app "Memory Booster - RAM Optimizer" if yes then this might be the one, i have just messed around in its settingsd and no screen wakup problems so far

No. The only apps that I think might cause this that I have on her phone is beautiful widgets and a data toggle. She has had these apps on there for awhile and the phone just started to act up.

Both me and my brother own atrix and it happens on both.It was happening on stock 2.3.4 and now on cm7 as well it must be something with the phone not a rom related issue
i also have beautiful widgets, can sk8trix conform that his and his brother phone have this app too. if yes then this might be the cause. or we have to tell each other whole list of apps that we have installed to narrow down the culprit.
On her phone I have all of her apps that are supposed to sync turned off. I recently installed data enabler for her so she would have a data toggle on her home screen. I use advanced task manager to kill her apps by force stopping them. Last night I used it and closed everything and turned her screen off. 5 minutes later it come on for about two seconds and shut off. I have been looking at what apps might be causing this and really dont see anything unusual except for the data enabler and beautiful widgets. I will uninstall both of those and report back later on to let you know the result. Hopefully someone else will come along with a better solution.

I don't use beautiful widgets ever.....I even tried with a clean install no apps installed except stock cm7 apps and google apps and it still happened so I gave up trying to figure it out.
it doesn't shorten my battery life at all so I don't worry however if there is a fix I will use it because it is annoying.
Edit the only time the phones wake up by themselves is right after we hit the power button to turn the screen off or when the phone firat boots and is still locked it will turn the screen off and turn it back on the dim again.
I dont think its cm7 issue cos i was at weekly # 4 and there was no issue then i flashed tuch recovery and after that boot it started happening. Then i flashed latest weekely and reverted back to old recovery. And i agree this only happen when i turn screen off (randomly)
OK here is where I am at now with this problem. I uninstalled both apps and it seems to be ok for the time being, but my fiancee told me she had been receiving weird messages in her notification bar. I looked into it and she was getting ads in her notification bar. So I downloaded AirPush Detector from the market and ran a scan on her phone and it detected a couple of apps pushing notifications. I got rid of the apps and now im back to checking the phone again. I dont know if that AirPush app would help you guys out or not but it would hurt to try.
since i have started this thread my problems have gone away like a little *****, and i dont know how to recreate this problem any more so i am stuck with no problem no solution thing.
12 hrs passed no problem so far.
It was apps in the background running. Airpush helped. I told her from now on no more free apps, i would rather buy them then fight this **** again. I put the data toggle and beautiful widgets back on her phone and it's ok. Thanks for your guys input.

I am having The same problem with my Samsung Galaxy ace Gt-5830i.
Earlier it had problems with charging and SD card. So we took it to authorized service center. And they said they had formatted the phone and installed stock ROM on it. They also replaced the charger port. But now after two days the phone screen is turning on and off at repeated intervals (for about 2 Seconds). So what might be the problem.
My One freezes on me and completely locks up from time to time, mostly when using the browser. It seems that it has been happening more and more frequently. When it happens, I have to keep jamming the home button to get out of it. I always reboot right after it happens hoping to clear it up but sometimes it happens again within an hour or so. It happened on my first One too but I thought it might have had something to do with the ROM I flashed. I'm stock rooted on this one and it is still happening. Does this happen to anyone else?

I haven't had the phone completely freeze, but have noticed the stock browser will hang up. I am however, able to just press the home button, then enter recent apps menu to close the browser.
Sorry to not have the same exact problem, but that has been my experience thus far. I'm sure it's just a small bug.

Weird things happen on mine while I have flash player active... I have no problems with enable flash player unchecked in the menu. I only activate it when I really need it which is rare anyway. The browser doesn't need to be restarted after activating it, it just refreshes the page so it not really inconvenient to leave it off until I need it.
Mostly some rogue app.. Just give a list of apps you have and we (users without randoom reboots or hangs) will point out the apps which we have not installed so that you can narrow down to the issue-causing app
I'm having a similar problem
My htc one crashes & reboots a few and even sometimes several times a day. Once in awhile I'll even have to boot from recovery mode as the phone has trouble restarting. It also starts do a bunch of screen captures as a restarting message appears. I've done a factory restart and still experiencing the same problem. I love this phone but am getting so frustrated. Bought my girlfriend the same phone she has never experienced this issue. I think it is either a problem with an app I have installed or possibly an overheating issue (I work outside in the sun, my phone gets pretty warm in my pocket). I'm close to doing a warranty exchange, just hoping its an app problem.
Sounds like an app to me. My last phone did that when an app would crash.

Maybe it's some applications conflicting with one another. Or a bad app.
I am stock. No root. I got my htc one before the official launch and it has not froze up or did random reboots. Knock of wood.

I don't think it's an app. I've deleted a whole bunch and froze others and it still happens to me all the time. I have nothing on my One that isn't on my One X and the One X has never frozen on me, EVER. One thing I've noticed is it only happens when using data- stock browser, Chrome, and Pulse news. It doesn't happen any other time. I drove from Colorado to Kansas yesterday and it must have frozen up on me 10-15 times during the entire 8 hour trip. It's getting really frustrating. When I have time I am going to nandroid and wipe and see if it happens on a bare phone, but my money is on that it will.
Hello guys, I have a Samsung Galaxy A10 and since today that I'm having an issue with it. Every 3 seconds there's a lag spike in the operating system only. In apps its completely normal no lags at all. For example if I continually flick the notification bar up and down i get a lag spike every 3 seconds every time. It happens the same with the navigation buttons on the bottom, keyboard, basically anything related to the os. But in apps I dont have this issue. I think it all started when I plugged in the charger and i got a warning that was water on it, but there wasnt any water that warning sometimes pops up when the cable slips a little bit and gets halfway attached. I restarted the phone multiple times, it seems fine on boot but quickly goes to the same problem. The phone is not rooted, it's original firmware and all. Can anyone help me out here?

Try this
Uninstall apps which haven't used in last 30 days. No need to worry, you can always install back when required.
Delete all images and videos of WhatsApp and similar which are just forwards. It will be a big chunk usually.
Move all personal pics and videos to cloud (Google Drive). Enable auto backup. Delete device copies for > 1 week old files.
Run SDmaid app. Uninstall it after that.
Wazzup.
Over at the Pixel 6 Pro fair, we have quite the number of people having problems with random reboots. We are trying to narrow it in - Android12? Pixel 6? Software? Hardware?
So - anyone here with the same set of problems? Or does the Pixel 6 not have that kind of issue?
For reference: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/random-reboots.4353231/
I have gotten several random reboots as well. 256gb seafoam pixel 6. In particular, I was using "Frep" automation app (unrooted, used pc to start server) to do repetitive image searches in a game. Also the phone was sitting on a wireless charger while doing this. I noticed my phone felt pretty warm, wonder if it could be overheating?
Could be a naughty 3rd party app. Have you tried safe mode?
I posted this here:
P6 Bluetooth Problems
My p6 will see most some of my Bluetooth devices (laptop, tablet, TV, earbuds) . It pairs with the earbuds, but everything else it will try and pair, usually does not. If and when hen it does pair, that pairing is dropped dropped within 5 secs...
forum.xda-developers.com
My random reboots (or crashes that forced me to reboot) almost entirely stem from the wifi+bluetooth implementation. I found a sure-fire way to crash it during setup. Without word vomiting here, connecting the P6 with and to other devices has proved more difficult than any previous Pixel (for me).

Not yet. It's also hard to "force" it (the reboots, I am not able to replicate it manually). Yesterday it just randomly happened whilst the phone laid idle next to me, thrice at the morning, about one time through late afternoon, then one time evening. I just notice the screen lighting up, then the Google logo comes, meaning the phone restarted.
I'm also pretty sure that Bluetooth/Wifi settings differed when the reboots happened, ergo at some times bluetooth was on, then when it rebooted, bluetooth was off. At no time when the reboots happened had I a bluetooth device connected. WiFi was online though, all the time.
What all the reboots have in commong though (at least the ones where I am concerned), is that the phone is just laying next to me, or somewhere, being in idle - doing as far as I know, nothing. It never happened when I used the phone or put it under load, so my P6 never "crapped" out under me. That's why I am not that concerned about this as of now, but it's certainly a nuisance to unlock the phone every time with my darn pin.
(Concerning 3rd party app) - I'd say that's unlikely. I copied my files over from my Pixel 4 XL and have not yet added one singular other app to my P6 Pro, so it should have gone naughty before my transfer over.
Hi! I experienced a big crash on the pixel 6. When I was configuring telegram, the app crashed and then the screen got black. After a minute it rebooted to the Google logo with a loading bar underneath. It was blocked in that state, but I could reboot it with volume up + power button.
I was pretty scared as the usual button down + power button didn't do anything lol
12 (SD1A.210817.036) on my pixel 6, occurred randomly when opening camera app. Happend 7-10 times.

Odd. I never had a problem whilst using the phone, my phone only rebooted when laying idle (even though today I had no reboots at all, alas I didn't use the phone much, maybe 2h SoT without any heavy lifting).
Something in android 12 is bugging around, maybe we have to open support tickets.

I just talked for a while with a Google rep and he said that they are not aware of any reboot problems, no people over at Google Forums have reported such a thing. "We do not monitor Reddit or XDA" - so he said he opened a support ticket to the responsible team and they would look into it, he also asked that I / we report/feedback this under -> Settings -> Tips & Support -> Feedback.
We also talked about a lens flare problem, that at least the Pixel 6 Pro has. If you shot some photos where the sun is directly shining into the camera, you might want to re-check them. Most of mine have either some sort of big circular green dot in them, or a big beam of light like in a phone with a very bad HDR processing. It seems to be some sort of software glitch, he also reported that.
So hopefully those things can get fixed.
This was the follow-up email:
Thank you for contacting Google support.
This email is regarding the chat conversation we had earlier today, I'm sorry we weren't able to complete it. Hence I wanted to follow up via email to ensure all your queries have been answered.
Please re-launch the camera app and check if the issue is fixed.
Please be assured our developer team is working on this to fix it as soon as possible. We would really appreciate your kind understanding as we work on this to fix it for you.
If there is anything apart from this that needs clarification, please feel free to reply back to this email. I'll be more than happy to assist you.
Thanks!

I'm having similar restarts while phone is sitting on a table doing nothing. Tried a factory reset and was fine until overnight on charge and it happened again.
Also have had a few times where wifi has stopped working for some reason. Not sure if related.
Not had any reboots but quiet a few app crashes in especially FB will be scrolling away and bang just closes also Amazon app ,
Well that was interesting.. When it rebooted that time, it gave me an error screen saying it could not load and may be corrupt. I had two options, try again and factory reset. Try again got me back running, but I'm wondering do I got as defective device now.. or if it's software related.
So after a lot of messing around, I think I have narrowed down what may be causing my reboots. It only seems to happen when I am using "Frep" to play macros on a game while charging my phone.. the phone gets pretty hot, and reboots when I tap the screen or try to swipe home or recent apps. Maybe its overheating, or maybe its "Frep" playing naughty.. but Frep did work perfectly fine on my old $200 used Nord N10 5g. Will update if it reboots while not doing this.
no reboots or crashes so far, not doing any gaming - but using phone for email, surfing, whatsapp etc and also a work profile for MS outlook and teams.
I have/had similar issues with my Pixel 6 (128GB - europe unlocked).
I was transferring old data via cable from my old (Xiaomi Mi A1) to the Pixel 6. This resulted in sluggish performance, crashes every 15 minutes. The crashes would randomly occur and behave mostly like this:
Try to unlock phone with fingerprint sensor
Fingerprint sensor lights up, nothing happens, no haptic response
Swiping up to the PIN entry. Enter PIN and hit enter. Nothing happens. Now freeze.
Screen turns black and it takes phone to reboot on average ~7minutes
Factory Reset; Installed apps manually (standard messaging apps, no games etc), better performance, problem persists
Factory reset; boot into safemode. It now took way longer to provoke the issue. But it still happened.
After this I contacted the customer service and they will provide me with a replacement. But now after a night of idle, the phone was working for 3-4 hours without any issue at all with most of my apps installed. It just now went into a random reboot (could only notice because it asked for PIN because of the reboot). But not the 8 minute blank black screen type of reboot.
I am really unsure what is the issue at hand here. But have to say that experience is less than ideal.
Mine just happened last night, not charging or running anything 3rd party apps (all from App Store). I tried to use the camera after eating dinner and noticed that double clicking power button doesn't open the camera anymore. After unlocking the phone it appears that the phone has restarted.
Is anyone running Private DNS on their system like Adguard DNS or NextDNS? I did some searching and people reported some private DNS were causing Android to crash. It was suppose to be fixed in previous Android versions but it could be back again.
I haven't noticed any random reboots (and the lock screen will require a pin to be entered after reboot and says this on the screen, so you should know the phone rebooted). I've had the P6 since the official release date. In fact, I haven't restarted the phone in days.
I run a wide variety of apps. Some from the Play store and some sideloaded. I think that any reboot issues are probably app related. Remember that A12 is very new and the are surely still some compatibility issues that app developers haven't found/fixed yet.
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
