did a factory reset adn still occurs
Mine was literally rebooting approximately 100 times per day (not exaggerating)...Use Titanium Backup and freeze "Android System Webview" so far that seems to have solve my issue. Hope this helps anyone experiencing this reboot nonsense! Good luck!

Hello, I tried searching but to no avail.
I have an intermittent problem that is getting the best of me with my TP2. The phone application seems to freeze randomly. It seems to usually occur at the end of a call when I go to hang up. I click end, the call ends and the phone just freezes. The call is disconnected, but the end screen is just displayed and my only recourse is to soft-reset.
There is really not a lot of third part stuff on it, in fact, I did a hard reset not 5 days ago.
Can anyone offer any help on the matter...
As always, many many thanks...
Same problem
I also have the same problem. I recently upgraded to WM6.5, but the problem still exist.
Somtimes the light on the bottom remain on as the phone freezes
I'm also having this problem, infact it keeps freezing on the home screen for me..
If I was not so green, I'd consider trying to get more stable by flashing a different ROM but I have no clue how to even begin to find one, select one, and do the operation.
You might try doing a hard reset. That's cured similar problems for me. I wouldn't suggest doing a backup, because you might backup and restore whatever is causing the problem.
Did a hard reset and no backup loaded only 4 days ago.
Any better solution for this problem??
I have searched for this issue but couldn't find anything about it...
So I got my GSM Galaxy Nexus from Rogers 10 days ago. It has been working dandy with maybe 1 force close the whole time and no random reboots. I also unlocked the bootloader and installed 4.0.2 (yakju) keeping the radio that came with it intact.
I also installed Google Wallet on it and successfully used it. Other than that, I haven't done any tweaks, and like I said, it has been working perfectly with no problems whatsoever.
Enter today: I woke up this morning and went to check my phone. Instantly like 3 applications force closed (ones that weren't even running in the foreground too). Now for the past 3 hours hours or so, applications force close (some won't even have a chance to run for a second) and the phone reboots randomly. I think it has rebooted around 30 times in the past 3 hours. Sometimes it reboots as soon as it has booted up, sometimes it works for a few minutes before rebooting.
Every time it reboots it shows my old battery stats (I think.. from before I went to sleep), and notifies me of the same emails. I managed to install one app before it did a random reboot once, but after the reboot it was gone. (Think Groundhog Day).
I have no idea how to fix this short of doing a factory reset. Anyone have any ideas as to what may be happening or how to fix it?
Thanks.

Is it doing a full reboot or just a "warm start"?

What's a warm start? It seems to be doing a full reboot.. Screen goes black, then Google logo appears, then the boot animation.
It seems that I cannot do a factory reset.. selecting it in the menu brings me to the android robot on its back with a red exclamation mark, and selecting wipe data from that menu doesn't actually wipe anything even though it says it does.
Try unlocking and relocking your boot loader if you are going to factory reset anyways

It's already unlocked.. You mean locking it and unlocking again? Also, is there any way to batch reinstall all the apps tied to my account? And also, any clue how this issue could have originated? I want to avoid it in the future.
No idea.. all I can think of is an app using all of your memory as that's what causes a force close.. and sure try relocking and unlocking if a normal factory reset won't do it. If you have titanium backup you can use that to batch reinstall but if it is an all causing this issue you should install them one at a time to see of there are any adverse effects.
I don't know if it is an app but that is my best guess.

I hadn't installed any new apps prior to this.. and everything was working fine before, which is why I'm confused as to what could have caused this. Also, not just one app force closes, but like 4 at a time.. usually the Google apps for some reason. I checked the memory and the CPU and it seemed to be running at normal levels.
Have you tried an old-fashioned battery pull?
Haven't had this happen to me, but a pull usually does the trick.
Yep, and it hasn't worked.. Every time the device reboots, it will either reboot again right away, or if i don't touch it, it will idle. Then if I try to do anything, 3 or 4 apps will crash instantly, and then it will freeze and instantly restart.
If I manage to install an app, I can run it, but then it crashes and reboots again with no sign of the app. Deleting apps is also useless as they are back after reboot. Strange issue.
Guys, I really need help.. I finally had time to sit down with my phone and figure out this issue so I decided to just do a wipe. As I wrote previously, I am unable to wipe it from within the OS due to it rebooting when I do, so I decided to re-lock the bootloader.
When I typed "fastboot oem lock", it changed the lock state on my phone to locked.. as I was expecting.. however, when I rebooted the bootloader, it was unlocked again. WTF? Now I am trying to flash stock 4.0.2 to it again (which it was already), but it's been stuck on "writing 'system' ..." for half hour
Could the flash memory be corrupted somehow?
Ok, I have deduced that it is most likely corrupted flash memory.. I didn't even know that could happen, especially in 10 days.. I guess that's good ol' "Made in China" at work. Still, am I the only one who has had their flash memory fail on them?
Crossing my fingers that Rogers will replace my Galaxy Nexus even though it's rooted and bootloader unlocked :/
Hey stenzor,
I am facing same problem of rebooting...
But I haven't flashed it to yakju.
Did rogers replaced your?
Yesterday I had a negative experiance with my GN.
After playing around for somewhile with my GN there were some apps that caused FC's. I decided to reboot the phone. Then the drama began.
I had to reboot one time after another. Sometimes the phone hung the part where you unlock the SIM card at boot and spontaneously rebooted after a while. Sometimes the phone started up and then after 10 seconds a total freeze appeared which I could not ger through. Pulled battery out and in, etc. etc. Tried at least a dozen times. I ended up wiping the cache through fastboot. That brought no solution. Then I performed a factory reset and now I have my GN back.
I am running on Stock 4.0.2 Fast Boot unlocked, rooted and SetCPU with an interactive profile and minimum 350 MHz max 12k. as many have. I had just been playing a while with the GN, but did no nstallations or anything like that. This is the first problem that I encounter with the GN.
Have more people experienced similar behaviour and do they know what caused it (and do they have a solution)? I am afraid that it may occur again and I do not want to do a Factory Reset again ;-)
Anyone else experiencing an excessive amount of reboots? For as long as I've had my N4, my phone has never restarted by itself. But after updating to 5.1.1, my phone restarts at least 5-6 times a day on any app (snapchat, facebook, camera etc). Should have been a hint to backup my phone because now my phone is on a loop and wont boot up after the AT&T animation. Last resort is obviously a Factory reset. Any help would be appreciated!
EDIT: Wiping my cache partition did not fix the issue.
EDIT: Plugging the phone in the charger while rebooting somehow fixed it. Hope that helps someone having the same issues.
Not me.

My device has never rebooted itself since I owned it (bought on 10/30/14). Yesterday, I tapped the camera icon to use the camera and it rebooted. Took forever to boot up because I'm encrypted. Once booted, I again tried to enter the camera and again, rebooted. Now at this point, it will not stop rebooting. It was on a loop that seemed like every 15-20 seconds it would reboot itself and I'd see the Samsung GN4 splash screen. I pulled the battery to stop this since everything else was unresponsive. I restarted the device in recovery mode and cleared system cache. Seemed to work at the time. All was well for a few hours with light usage until I tried to use the Genius Scan+ app. As soon as I tapped the camera button within the app, the device rebooted. Once back up and running, I deleted an app that I sideloaded the day before called Parchi (it's a Microsoft Garage project app not available in the US Play Store). I figured it might have something to do with it since it's the only app I've installed in days. The app seemed to work for the first 24 hours however, I deleted it anyway just to see if that was causing the issue. So far, no further issues with rebooting and my battery life has been great as well. Prior to deleting this app, my battery went from 100% to 35% in like 3 hours with very light usage and maybe 20 minutes of OST.
Back to the issue at hand though, I've had 5.1.1 on my device since day one when AT&T pushed it and no issues with rebooting until yesterday.
Hi all, in last few weeks i have a strange issue with my touchscreen, it is getting unresponsive randomly, and all that helps me to restore to normal is getting the screen off with the upper button, and on again after about 30 seconds. I am on a stock rom version 160, tried to flash again, factory reset, wipe cache partition, uninstall all apps, nothing helps. But, ive noticed, that it happens often when i am charging the phone with the car charger. Please help, is anyone have the same issue?
The model is ZE551ML 4gb/64gb
