so yesterday i noticed random reboots when tethering thought nothing of it.
then last night i was browsing the net and decided to play some fpse, when i'd finished i closed the xpleria play so it kinda closed on it's own (in other words i didn't fully close it myself let the springs or whatever do the work) anyway when it closed the phone actually turned off and rebooted.
So today i've updated to 2.3.4 and it's still the same so not software related, if i fully close the play with care it wont turn off and reboot.
faulty unit?
was bought from a 02 store last week still got the reciept only problem is it now has has a unlocked BL and unlocked SL, so don't fancy returning it if it can be fixed
any suggestions?
You can relock the bootloader and just return everything back to stock and they shouldn't know unless you tell them. Then take it back and tell them it's not doin it for you that there is random reboots if that doesn't work for some reason just go directly to the source a few others in the arc section got theirs exchanged no problem

My dad bought a xperia arc from newegg and every time he tries to use google maps it force closes and gets the sleep of death and also when he put it on the charger for a long period of time. We sent it back to newegg for another and the new one has the same problem as the last. The phones came with 2.3.3 so I updated to the latest 2.3.4 stock rom and still have the same problem as before. I have no clue what the problem is but was wondering if anyone else hase had this problem and knows a fix for it. I would like to stick with stock for awhile before going custom.
Hello, I was just wondering whether anybody else had this problem. Whenever I play Netflix on a tw based rom, the picture freezes about thirty minutes in, even over multiple episodes, the back button becomes useless, the touchscreen becomes useless, and the only way to fix it is to press home and kill Netflix. This doesn't happen in CyanogenMod, but I really want to know why this happens.

Been using Netflix since day 1 and never had that problem.how many other apps are you running?
Btw, shouldn't this be in apps?

None. I think it might just be an isolated case. When I flashed CM7 the problem went away. I guess I'm just going to have to keep wondering. And thanks for moving my post.

Hey all got my gn gsm from mobicity au about two weeks and today I had something strange happen.
I was at work got a SMS the phone started to make a tone but very slowly and it repeated it ( which is strange) then I put in my pin and unlocked my phone to find that its lagging like crazy, home screens are sticking and freezing . So I reboot, once rebooted the phone tells me that the ics launcher has stopped working, and its still lagging can't open settings.
So once again I restart and take out battery this time all is well, battery went down 10% at that tine also.
I'm on 4.0.1 Google build all stock.
Any one else have this issue?

The game in question is Marble Blast! by Ezjoy Network. (I cannot post outside links yet, sorry)
On my first Galaxy Nexus I would play that game daily without any issue. I just got a replacement phone from Verizon yesterday (screen issues) and now every time I try and play the same game, my phone reboots on the "Loading Feint..." screen. I've heard Feint might not be compatible with ICS yet?
I see that the app was updated on Dec 31 and I didn't have auto-update enabled for that app, so on my old phone I was probably playing an earlier version of it. There is only one comment on the market from someone having a similar issue, with many more comments from people with galaxy nexus devices rating the game highly.
Two questions:
1. Can anyone else confirm phone rebooting with latest version of this game on a galaxy nexus?
2. This is my first android phone, so is it common for an errant app to be able to reboot the phone? I can see it crashing the app, but isn't rebooting the phone a little severe and something an app shouldn't be able to do?
have you tried xda app?
Just installed and testing now. Seems to work fine. Does this app cause phone reboots for people too?

lol. give it some time. but to answer your question, i can't say for 100% i am sure apps cause reboots, but i think they can and do. xda gives me fits sometimes. but surprisingly, most apps haven't given me problems with nexus. if they have, i've uninstalled them right away. i am awaiting a solid build from google before i give a few apps a second chance.
That game is the only app I've ever had reboot the phone. It was odd to me that Nexus #1 played the game fine daily for 2 weeks, Nexus #2 reboots every time. Makes me wonder if it's the phone or the software?
Since no other app is doing that, I'll blame the software for now.
it's probably in need of another update still. ics is still fresh so be patient. you are an early adopter still even though it officially came out on verizon.
I'll go back to the very beginning. I bought my Sony Xperia Acro S 1.5 half years ago. After a month it started to get slower and slower. Apps didn't crash, it usually get stuck in one action and snap out of it after a minute, it was pretty annoying. I decided to flash a custom ROM few months ago because i thought it would fix it. I was wrong. It just got worse. I flashed an Android Lollipop 5.0 by some ''dirtypaul'' . Now my apps crash all the time ( YouTube, Twitch, Google Chrome, Games, everything). Phones keyboard often doesn't even pop up. I can use youtube and twitch for about 5-10 minutes before it crashes. It kinda fixes for 30min when i restart my phone. It is really annoying and i don't know what to do. I live in a third world country so maybe i just got a faulty phone? Any tips or solutions on how to fix this will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance
I also have the same device as yours last March I installed his ROM 5.0 and I didn't found any bug and it's working incredibly great but I didn't like it that much so I came back to the original stock acro S ROM but after a month I also get stuck and the phone always get lag so I came back to BPaul Lollipop ROM and found out it has already released a new updated version 5.1.1 lag free and working incredibly good.. ?
