Just a quick question for everyone. My apps close by themselves in the background. WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger are the 2 worst perpetrators. I will stop receiving messages unless I open the app once every 15 minutes. If I forget, I'll open the app and suddenly get flooded with a ton of "new" messages.
This only started happening since 5.0. I've unlocked my bootloader and installed the Pure Edition 5.0.1 and then upgraded to 5.1 leak and have the same issue. I've wiped my phone and that does nothing. I don't think it's the memory leak glitch because I will have more than 1gb of RAM free when these problems are happening.
Is it a rogue setting in 5.0 that's causing these problems? Has anyone seen this before? I'm back on my 2013 Moto X temporarily until I figure this out, but I'd love to go back to my 2014 X.
Thanks everybody!
This is a known memory leak issue with 5.0. It's supposed to be fixed with 5.1 but I haven't had an update so I can't confirm. Music playing in the background and Bluetooth are issues for me.

Same problem here. For me, the app which gets restarted most often is Nova Launcher. Rebooting the phone fixes this for some time (one or two days) but eventually it come back again

I agree with TriumphGuy and am pretty sure the source *is* the memory leak bug since the symptoms are the same.
BTW I will be very disapointed if this issue is confirmed not being fixed un the upcoming 5.1 official release

I have a moto x 2014 pure edition running 5.0 lollipop, I had lollipop with few operational upsets for a good week or so and decided to root my device. After root I noticed the phone will lag, not extraordinarily often but it happens every day, it will also sometimes freeze up and reboot randomly when performing tasks like pulling down the notification shade or anything really. Has anyone else noticed this? and is there a fix or should I just unroot the system?

I'm interested in the feedback you get. Try posting in the thread in General called Root Achieved Lollipop....
I've had my Nexus 6 sinces the end of November and just recently I've been experiencing random reboots. I'm current on stock 5.0.1 ROM, no Root and encrypted. I also have my device paired with my LG G watch.

I cleared the cache on mine and no reboots for a week now so maybe worth giving that a shot if you have not done so already.
How often are the reboots? I get a reboot every ~200 hours of uptime.
I was getting at least 2 reboots per day. I uninstalled the Amazon app and I haven't had one since.
It's most likely an app issue causing the problem.
I suspect it's a rogue app causing this but the apps i currently have installed are my daily drivers. How can I find out which one is the culprit opposed to just deleting them all? Remember I'm on stock ROM, NO-Root, encrypted.
I'm running rooted stock Android 5.1 on my nexus 6 and I'm experiencing servers memory leak issues. Anytime I open chrome my phone becomes practically unusable. Chrome and Google app are usually my main offenders using about half of my ram. Usually Google app is taking up about a fourth of my ram at all times. I didn't experience the issue with 5.0 but as soon as 5.1 came put I've had these issues. Can someone please give any advice to fix or help with a workaround? Thanks in advance.
try a simple reboot. how often do you reboot?
I've been using the debloated 5.0.2 FW (pre-rooted 23.1.A.0.726 with Xposed) for months now with no issues, but one day the RAM started going crazy and has been for a month now. Every time I open an app, things in the background start restarting in a loop and multitasking is basically impossible. Restarting and clearing cache/dalvik-cache hasn't helped at all. I don't know if this is the Lollipop memory leak bug (I thought Sony had fixed this), but it's really strange that this came seemingly out of nowhere. I've attached some screenshots. Not really sure what to make of it, but memory state is in "critical" most of the time, and Google Play Services and Snapchat usage seems unusually high. Before, I had quite a few apps running in the background and the phone handled it like a champ; rarely any app refreshes, redraws, etc. Now it feels like i have 512MB of RAM again...
Anybody experiencing this? I'm thinking this could be coming from a rogue Xposed module or something. The problem is the worst if I'm using Chrome or Snapchat, but still occurs elsewhere. Any recommendations on where to find the cause?
I get exactly the same issues as you. No idea why that happens. After exiting an app and going back to Google now launcher it would've restarted so all the icons take awhile to load again and the app drawer too. This is quite annoying but a reboot fixes it. Sadly I might have to do this once a day or so, hence making the experience rather irritating.

It's happening to me too. I'm hoping it's a 5.0.2 LP bug and will be resolved with 5.1.1's release sometime this month (fingers crossed!)
That said, I've tried nearly all the stock rom iterations on this board and Wajk's 23.2.A.1.62 build seems to be the most stable, even with Xposed installed. Version 1.1 and 1.3 of his Slim rom still had restarts (I never tried 1.2), but they actually restarted, whereas other stock roms wouldn't, and the apps that restarted remained closed until reopened manually, so I missed messages and emails all the time, and experienced launcher redraws often.
Currently, I'm on 1.4 of his rom and it seems less stable, but that could be because I had dirty flashed from 1.3, and previously dirty flashed from 1.1. Version 1.5 should be out soon, so if that doesn't improve it, I'm going to clean wipe and re-install.
Hello guys.
I own an xt1800, and pretty happy with it.
It came out of the box with Android 7.1, and got updated to 8.1 via ota sometida months ago.
What I'm noticing is that the phone gets sluggish after 100+ hours of be powered on, this did not happen in 7.1
If I restart the phone everything goes back to normal, so it's something related to the os.
What do I mean by sluggish? For example if you open chrome, it can be unresponsive for some seconds and then comes to life. If you are loading a webpage and scrolling, it can freeze for a few seconds and then continue working...
This is not exclusive of chrome, other apps suffer from this as well (such as Gboard)
Many security patches had been applied since the 8.1 upgrade, but none of them fixed the issue.
The upgrade was done via OTA.
Have you experienced something like this?
I used to have a Moto X 1st Gen, and the stock/original firmware (4.2.2) was the best version of the phone. It got updated to 4.4, 4.4.4 and 5.1 but they all had some issues the 4.2.2 didn't.
I'm wondering if you are not supposed to upgrade a Motorola phone, since I'm experiencing something like that with this phone as well.
Any ideas?
Thank you.
