Anyone still having issues with performance and reboots? - Nexus 7 General

I am locked, stock and 4.2.1. I am still having major performance issues. Sometimes it takes a few presses of the button to wake up. If it wakes up in landscape, it takes forever to rotate and unlock. Updating or downloading an app? Forget doing anything else while that's happening. System freezes till app is updated or downloaded and installed. Also getting a random reboot about twice a week.
If anyone has any suggestions, I would love to know. I'm hesitant to factory reset, only because of game data and various other things.
Thanks

Turn of currents auto sync

That has been done, but thank you . Also cleared cache through storage setting.
I just cleared cache through recovery, so we will see how that goes. Didn't think of doing that before.

Factory reset is your best bet then if turning currents off did not work after you reset you can unlock and root to since you won't have anything on it anyways then you can back up if it happens again

I'm setup the same as you complete stock didn't even unlock the boot loader and I have no issues. So if disabling currents has no effect a factory reset might be necessary. I had to factory reset my gnex after 4.2 update for it to run right. Fortunately I got the 7 after update was available so updated it before I had any data.

My Revo is now locking up and rebooting

So I've got Cubed's Root and ROM done, and I love the phone. But recently it has begun rebooting at random times. It seems to do it most often when it is trying to update apps from the market either right after or in the middle of the update process.
I've also had a few lock ups where I had to pull the battery.
Any ideas what could be causing it? Are there any tools out there that will keep a log so i can see what is running that might be causing this?

I've only seen this at low battery. I had a 1% charge last night, and while plugged in, I tried to access something and it rebooted. It seemed fine after that, but the only time I have experienced something like this is when the battery is low. What's interesting to me is don't most phones shut themselves down at 10%?
My experience with android phones is that they auto shutdown shortly after hitting 0%. Depending on the phone battery saving settings kickaround 15%. Also most issues i've experienced with them happen around low battery .
I had a similar issue and it wasn't related to low battery. My phone would do like a "mini" reboot. By that i mean it would freeze and the screen would go off and then the notification bar would show up and the phone would come back on like normal at the lockscreen. It wasn't a full reboot and really didnt take more than 10 seconds to reset.i noticed it more while running pandora but I'm pretty sure that wasn't the only time it did it. I was running the decrapified with a few extra things that i removed. Since i went back to stock rooted i haven't had the problems.

It is not a low battery issue, since it happens when it is 100% and plugged in and charging.

No. I'm not sure how to do it.

Note that if you do this it will wipe your data and apps. Always make sure you backup your current setup 1st, that way you can always recover in case you make a mistake.

Ok, what is the best way to backup the system? Should I use Titanium Backup or some other way. And when I restore won't the issue return?
Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA App
Use clockwork. Titanium Backup will not backup/recover system,etc...
I backed up via the recovery, and then wiped the Davlik cache, and that seems to have done the job. No more random reboots so far.

lockscreen not working!

Hi, after using my droid 3 for less than a week, I turned it on one time, and it bypassed the lock screen. I see it for a split second, then it goes away w/out me doing anything. This is not good, like if it turns on in my pocket, I'll be doing who know what on my phone... please help as soon as you can. Thanks!
Same issue with mine. I can generally get it to bypass the lockscreen on purpose if I do something weird, like unlock it right after I open the keyboard or play with the volume buttons.
Mine did this so I did a factory reset and I've not had that issue again since. Its been a week.

Does anyone know how to fix w/out a factory reset?
I fixed the problem by changing the value of the Security Lock Timer in Settings > Location & Security

Help my phone keeps rebooting at random time when it is not suppose to

Hello i need help. My phone keeps rebooting itself at random times like playing a game,locking my phone,updafing stuffs and much more it doesnt happen all the same just 10/100 chance it does happen. I am using pandoriam 5.5 and was thinking of updating it to 5.7 but if the same issue happens in 5.7 i dont think i want a rooted phone anymore help????
Sent from my GT-I9305 using xda app-developers app
Its nothing to think about... reflash and my gutt feeling say that the reboots disapear.
If not, via odin make a flash to stock.
If that didnt help.. it may be a hardware issue..
No worrys i think.

Hi.
Yes.. if you dont wipe you could inheret the fault.
Factory wipe and then install rom.
Your other hang problem could be fixed to i think. Who knows in the end?

Maybe I just found another possible cause for this long lasting problem. Sorry for bothering this old thread again.
I reactivate old but gold Samsungs with 4G by flashing the most recent stable cfw available. So I did with some SGS3 LTE and I was wondering, why every phone had problems with it. One just curiously lost EFS wich led to continously booting (could be fixed by restore), one had a sudden problem with the powerbutton (could be fixed by soldering a new switch), one just didn't like the SoC-standby (setting kernel to min. 800MHz fixed that) and finally today I found the last one to have a problem with the screen. When the screen blacks out due to energysavings primarly the system loses the connection to the digitizer wich is not the main issue. But 30 seconds after the display shuts off, the standby comes in not so handy and the screen gets a short circuit wich leds to a reboot. So I tried to exchange with a shattered display with broken touch and, oh wonder, everything is working fine. I then connected the suspected display to another mainboard and guess what? Yes, it rebooted exactly 30 secs after the screen blacked out.
Is anyone here still on this device and can replicate my sightings? I'd love to use /e/ on all of these cute little thingies and maybe someone else could do this also by just replacing the display?
...a few facts to add: I tried "keep display active during charging" (development options) over night connected to a powerbank and it stayed on. Just locking the phone made it go nuts and reboot 30 secs after...

[Q] Galaxy S5 system crashing constantly?

I have an unrooted Galaxy S5. A few days ago, I was using the phone (can't remember an app) when the phone froze completely for about 5 seconds and then restarted. Ever since it recovered, the phone has had all sorts of problems: app crashes (Chrome in particular), dropped calls, very slow performance, and very slow gallery and camera. I haven't installed any apps recently.
Does anyone know what would cause this? Am I correct in assuming that the only way to fix this is a factory reset?

I'm no expert, but usually a full factory reset helps Try wiping cache from recovery too, that could help. If all else fails then there's nothing (except a hard paperweight) that a reset can't fix

It's strange that so many unrelated things would stop working but they all sound software/OS related so the wipe will probably fix it. You could clear app data for a few separate apps & see if one is the culprit but it might be a deeper problem like play services or something.

I'll admit to some f.c. on apps but nothing to do with the system crashing. Maybe try a fresh flash through Odin and a factory reset before fullboot. Also towel rooted. And how bad does this locked bootloader suck.

Ambient Displaying incorrect time

For whatever reason when I enable ambient display the time won't update until I unlock the device. Has anyone had this issue? I'm stock and rooted with Franco kernel.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
Try wiping dalvik and cache in recovery, maybe fix permissions as well. If it persists, try re-installing stock kernel, or maybe re-flash the rom as a last resort.
Do not do fix permissions, it'll cause your phone to boot loop on the nexus 6.
Kernel has nothing to do with the time and making it display incorrectly.

I have the same issue. Using stock rom with lean kernel (1.7).
I kind of hate ambient display anyways so I guess I'll just wait for an update to come out
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
I'm having this exact same problem. But I'm not even rooted, all I did was unlock the bootloader, running stock 5.0.1, stock kernel, stock everything.
I've tried having the Time be set automatically, and I've tried turning that auto-set off. The display still doesn't show the correct time until I go to unlock the screen. It seems like it freezes after a few minutes no matter what, kinda like the deep sleep bug. But turning off the Automatic Time setting used to fix that...
Anybody have any idea what causes this now?
actually... it doesn't FULLY freeze... it seems to update 1 time after a set interval. I can't tell what that interval is, and it seems to change randomly, but it'll never be more than, say, an hour behind.
I wonder if there's any way to change the interval? or at least find out why it seems random?
Anybody else experience this?
