Having a lot of freezes lately, why? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Ever since I flashed CM 10.1 I have been getting freezes, like 3 times a day. I would be listening to music then it freezes but the music is still playing and I have to do a battery pull. Also if I don't use my phone for hours when I take it out of my pocket, after a while it just freezes on me. I have tried re flashing 10.1, 10.1 rc3, pacman. I'm thinking about a TW rom, would the freezes stop? Also i used to have dirty unicorn 7/20 version and I had no freezes. This was maybe 2 weeks ago. I also even tried to not overclock/unvolt/underclock at all and I still got freezes, this literally never happened to my phone before, except maybe if I overclocked too high and it reboots on its own.

Same boat here. I'm pretty sure it's from the latest kernel release.

Galaxy Nexus Random Freezes and Reboots

I've got a Verizon G'NEX and I flashed DroidViscious's 4.1.1v1 rom with Franco's kernel about a month ago and everything was smooth sailing up until last week. I've been experiencing random instances of my screen freezing for about 10 seconds followed by my device rebooting. Upon startup right after a reboot I can enter my pattern lock and then it freezes immediately after and reboots (I can tell it's responsive during the unlocking of the pattern because of the haptic feedback). This will happen several times before I'm able to get back to the homescreen without it freezing.
I thought there was a problem with the rom since it was an older build Jelly Bean so I wiped the device and flashed the latest build of Pete's BuglessBeast using his default kernel hoping that would solve the problem. Unfortunately it didn't. I'm still experiencing these random freezes and reboots and the only way I can get it to boot without freezing is to pull the battery out for a couple of minutes and try again.
I'm wondering if the device is thinking it's getting too hot so it shuts down but I don't really have any way of knowing (it happens a lot when I'm in the car or when the phone is charging). Anyone have any ideas on what the problem is and how to resolve it? Or any ideas on how I can debug the problem myself? It's happening fairly often now when I need my phone the most.
The phone isn't even a year old so if relock the bootloader and return it to stock it should be covered under warranty still if there's a hardware issue.
Well, this problem seems to be exclusive to Jelly Bean. I reverted back to ICS and everything seems to be fine. Is anyone else having this problem with Jelly Bean roms?
yeah I get alot of random reboots and some freezes here and there. not sure what it is. but i have to gsm version gnex.

Nexus Auto Reboots randomly!!!

Hi all
lately for the past like 3 months my phone would reboot by itself for reason i really can't explain and it usually happens when i am browsing(stock , chrome or opera ) it always reboots
i was using paranoid android with franco kernel a few months ago when this issue started happening ,initially it keeps rebooting like mad and not long after my computer can't detect it when it's plugged in
i got so frustrated that i looked up for a vid to hard reset my phone to 4.3 stock from google
and thus the issue was solved for like a week
it was all fine and good , then one day i was browsing and it reboots , my heart sank , i was scared the issue would come back and it did , now my phone reboots in the music player , and occasionally in my mp3 downloader and i REALLY DONT KNOW WHY!! i din't root or anything i left it vanilla ...
and when it reboots the battery gets really really hot ...
so is this a software issue? or hardware? is there any solutions?

[Q]SGH-i747M running really weird, can't figure it out.

I was running the SGH-i747M with CWM 6.0.4.7 and testing out some 4.4.2 ROMs, I got another phone to play with now and I gave this one to my girlfriend but she doesn't like nightlies so I was trying to install a 4.2.2 or 4.3.1 stable ROM and they won't work. I read online that it might be due to the CWM being too new because it's support is for Android 4.4.x. So I downgraded CWM and that didn't work either. I ended up convincing her that nightlies aren't that bad and shes currently running Carbon but she hates flashing the new nightlies so I do it for her every few days or so. I've noticed though that this phone is acting up really weird since I tried to downgrade CWM and then install the current one again. Sometimes it reboots at random, I gave the phone to her with BAM 2.0 RC2 (I know, shame on me), and that was horrid, so I tried CyanogenMod and that was "okay" but she said it's boring and she wants more features, so I switched it to Carbon because that's what I'm running on my SGH-i317M and she seems to like that, but it's still acting really weird.
When I was using the SGH-i747M while I was waiting for the new display to come in the mail for my SGH-i317M, I was running BAM and the only thing was it was a battery hog, and ocasionally I would get a "blame tyler" error for some things but it was never repeatable, I switched to Carbon and I was running completely stable on the nightlies, I used it for my day to day and not one problem, after switching over to my SGH-i317M now running CarbonROM, still flawless, not a single problem, fast, good battery life, signal strength is always good, but the phone I was on, running the same ROM, is now glitchy as hell and she's talking about getting an iPhone 5S now.. guys you gotta help me here, I just got her to give up her iPhone 4 for this S3 I gave her, I need this phone working, it is a critical situation lol.
The camera app will take one picture, then the screen will freeze and when I close the app, it opens right back up with the same picture, when I completely close the app, it opens up saying can not conect to camera and the only solution is to reboot the phone. It randomly reboots on it's own some times, the battery doesn't last more then a few hours (between 2 to 3 hours depending on use and when I was using it on Carbon, I got 30 hours off of a single charge once, but the average was around 20 hours of use before it would die) and she was telling me while she's on high brightness but never full brightness, the phone gets really hot so there's something wrong from when I flashed an old CWM using Odin, and then flashed it back to the current one.
So how can I do some kind of full wipe everything and make everything better procedure? Does this exist yet? Is it a real thing?
I'm thinking some kind of recovery wipe, completely wipe everything except the boot loader so I can install a fresh copy of CWM using Odin, and then some kind of AOSP ROM that's stable but I think she likes Carbon now so we might just stick with the nightlies as long as these random force closes and random reboots stop, and the camera works, I mean, you can't instagram without a camera, so that makes this phone nearly useless for her. One picture, freezes, reboot the phone, opens picture from gallery, then hipsters it out, then shares it.. not exactly the seamless method she was looking for lol
Please help guys, I really don't want to see another iPhone laying around the house.. ugh..

Random rebooting?

I've had a 2013 Nexus 7 since it came out, and I never really had any issues with random reboots for the longest time. I had even rooted and was running a custom ROM/ kernel, and I had no issues.
It seemed to start once I had installed a different ROM/ kernel, while I was trying new stuff out just for kicks. I started getting random reboots, and I thought it was just the particular ROM/ kernel combination. Figured it was a bug that would get fixed in future updates, so I just tolerated it for a while. But, it persisted through the ROM and kernel updates.
So eventually, I switched ROM and kernel for something brand new, thinking I wouldn't have to worry about it anymore. Nope, still got random reboots. I've jumped around to some other ROM/ kernel setups over the last couple weeks, and no matter what I'm on, I still get random reboots.
It seems to mainly happen while I'm using Chrome (though, in fairness, a majority of what I do is browsing the Internet, so...), but it's also happened once while in the camera app, and also once while the tablet was "asleep" while casting a video to my Chromecast.
It's just getting kind of annoying, at this point. Last night, it rebooted four times in the span of about 45 minutes. Is this a known issue? Are there any fixes for this?
I'm having a similar issue. I run default 4.4.4 and have found no pattern to why its rebooting.
I found a possible solution of switching to ART (instead of dalvik) in developer options. Not sure why this should work, but the tablet hasn't rebooted last day using this. Along with a factory reset (which hasn't helped), I have no real solutions. Next step for me is to reflash the default ROM again to see if this makes a difference.
Any extra tips would be appreciated.

[Q] Rebooting.

Tablet has had quite a few random reboots in the last few days.
It's happened when I closed all tabs in chrome. It has happened after uninstalling an app. It's happened after selecting to greenify google play services - and wiped all the greenify settings. It's happened at, as far as I can tell, random times and circumstances.
It is probably kernel related but this is a new tablet for me and I'm not too familiar with any custom roms or kernels on this device. Currently running xKat v4 with the included kernel.
Anyone else experiencing this? Anyone have a fix recommendation or suggestions?
Thanks.
I got random reboots in the first couple of weeks when I first got the tablet ... Mainly when I unplugged off charge. I think I drained battery to 5% switched it off and charged it to 100% and never had any issues after that.
P.s this happened like a year ago so can't really remember much tbh - but I do know I didnt have to factory reset or anything drastic, it just fixed itself also bare in mind back then I was on stock JellyBean. Soz I can't help more.
Never had a reboot ever. Had tablet a year....still on jb rooted stock Rom.....

I'm also experiencing frequent and random reboots with my SM-P600 since the update to 4.4.2 (never had any reboots before):
First the screen starts flickering (this happens quite often using Google Chrome or playing youtube videos, but it occurs with other apps as well), then after a while the tablet suddenly gets unresponsive and reboots (sometime it reboots several times in a row).
I've already tried multiple factory resets and cache/davlik wipes, re-installed the 4.4.2 firmware using kies, but nothing helped so far.
Anyone any suggestions what else I can try?

Did you check the temperture?? download a cpu temp check and see if it's overheating. Also, is your tablet rooted??
