Optimizing apps 1 of 233 - and rising?! - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just recently my LG G4 H815, rooted, bootloader unlocked, v10b, has been acting strange.
I installed boot manager a couple of months ago and it has been running fine, but a couple of days ago I noticed pop up notifications saying a variety of apps were "added to boot manager"
I dont know where these apps are installing from and I cant find them in any folders.
Yesterday my phone crashed and after starting up again showed a "android is starting... optimizing apps 1 of 233" which seems a lot more than i have seen before. This made my boot time about 6 minutes
Today at work my battery died, (this is was because I fell asleep before charging my phone the night before) and when I charged my phone back up it showed "...apps 1 of 244". My phone was then on the "Starting apps..." Screen for 3 minuets. This made the boot time around 8-9 minutes.
I hadn't installed any apps between now and then and I did not see any pop up notifications.
At the moment I am scared to turn of my phone in fear of it taking even longer so I have 2 questions,
What is happening?
Do you need any further information to help me resolve this?
Thanks!

Best shot would be to factory reset your phone

Update: I seem to have gotten past the problems after updating to 10n. Now running stock debloated 10n rom with no reboot issues (so far)

[Q] Rebooting and memory problems

(I am running rooted stock 4.3 now)
Six months ago I had a problem with the speed of the phone. It kept freezing , was sluggish etc. but I solved it by running lag fix + other apps and also factory resetting. The problem started slowly, day by day the phone was slower and more unresponding. After 4.3 I thought it is gone (because of trim support).
However last week the same thing has started, phone was slower and slower... But, 2 days ago it started rebooting itself randomly (every 5 minutes) and Play store, Gmail and other apps started FCing. Today I tried doing nandroid backup, which failed, after reboot I couldn't access internal storage, and after another reboot all application data were deleted. I did factory reset but it didn't help. Now I can access internal storage but the phone is still rebooting every 5 minutes and I am wondering what to do.
I have 2 options, lock bootloader and send it to Samsung, or try to fix it myself. What do you think?
well if you still have warranty better lock the bootloader back and sent it for repair..

Random reboot?

So, I've had the premium for almost 3 weeks now. On the second day it crashed whilst I was listening to music +browsing in chrome. Thr screen turned inky and then turned off. Since then I haven't had anything similar happen, but I have had 1 or 2 reboots. Are these signs something could be wrong with my phone? I have like a week to get a replacement. It's rev 2, other than this I have no complaints.
Try to remove cach in recovery mode, maybe that will fix your problem. If not let me know
This has been happening to me as well and actually results in boot loops. Since I have Liveboot, I can see the dmesg output. It says "Failed to start system services. Invalid abi: ABI" or something like that. I'm RomAur so maybe that has something to do with it?
It has happened to me 3 times this week. Also RomAur 1.1. It seems to happen when i am heavy multitasking, definitely related to chrome I think.
I'm completely stock... I use chrome as my main browser. The last time it happened it froze on wake whilst it was charging... The first time I was listening to music and doing something else which I can't recall. The phone has 3gb of ram so I don't really clear my recent apps as often as I did on my S4. It happens once a week on average for me. Cache wipe didn't do anything.
You could've easily gotten a faulty device. A but load of hardware issues can do that and I would advice you to do a factory reset, update to the latest F/W (flash it if not available in ur region), see if it happens again and if it does - get a replacement
Gd luck
If you're totally stock this might not help but I narrowed my problem down to xposed being unstable as crap on mine at least. Hasn't happened since I went back to stock fw (using. 200 generic FR). But I tried to install xposed and I got the three light reboot immediately.

exactly like that on my z5 . when i flash the xposed uninstaller , it doesnt randomly reboot, but when i flash xposed , it does.i was thinking of flashing .200 ftf and then flashing xposed from the beggining (before i install any apps ) to see if it helps , but you said you did it??

Verizon G3 Bootloop

im rooted with no custom recovery on 4.4, i used the phone last week with gps running and mobile hotspot in the sun for over 2 hours and i think my phone got a little too hot. the next morning it started rebooting on its own and hasnt really stopped except for a few hours when it worked on sunday but then started acting up again.
i purchased a new battery and its still happening. id like to try and wipe the phone to see if it helps but i would really like to try and backup my whatsapp database and media and my downloads folder before attempting the restore.
is there any way of getting the files on the phone? i can access download mode and the stock system recovery screens without issue and the phone stays on indefinitely on both of those screens so im hoping that this just may be a software problem.
Any ideas?
anyone?

Nexus 5x randomly restarting

Hello! I am going to describe my issue with 2 years old nexus 5x which is restarting randomly.
It all started a couple of days ago when my phone started to ask me to enter PIN code. That happened randomly. After entering the code my phone worked completely ok.
But yesterday it started restarting on its own. The restart happened once, than I suddenly got a message before loading screen saying: "Your device is corrupt. It can not be trusted and may not work properly".
Today my Nexus restarted around 10 times. These restarts do not depand on phone usage, since it is restarting randomly (when charging, when not charging, when using it, when screen is off).
I decided to clear cache partition factory reset it and update apps. Unfortunately that did not help, since my phone is restarting even more frequently. Normally it freezes for 5 seconds and than restarts. Sometimes I still get the message: "Your device is corrupt...", but not always.
My Nexus has not been modified (it is not rooted and it is running android 8.1 with november security patch). Also apps have been installed only from play store and not from unknown sources.
I would really need your help. Has anybody experienced any similar issues or does anybody know what could cause the restarting?
Thank you in advance.
@tic_tac7: probably it's a conveniant variant of BLOD. So save everything important on another storage immediately.
This message comes from bootloader. Because the reboots happen also during standby, it's imo useless to flash a kernel which lets the big core sleep, but that's a misty guess. Nevertheless you could try the latest ABC-Oreo (needs TWRP by ADB) without anything more for testing. If reboots are going on > bin.

Thank you for your response. Is installing a custom rom the only possible soultion?
No. It's no solution. It's a vague trial.

If you are original owner of phone for up to 30 months, go here and let LG fix (or attempt to) the phone. Mine required two repairs. If you are not in the US, check with LG support in your country.

Gen1 FireTV stuck in reboot loop

So, I have a rooted 1st gen FireTV (aka bueller). I have no recollection what I did to it long time ago when I rooted it, other than it worked fine but was stuck on old software (5.0.x?). So I wanted to run newer apps on it, and I updated it with 5.2.7.3 rooted image. It reboot, went through the 10 min "system storage and applications" and was working, new UI and everything.... but when I tried updating the apps, it complained that the app store is too old. A few minutes later it rebooted.....and did the same "optimization" gig for like 10 mins.... then it rebooted, and now it reboots over and over, sometimes doing optimization, sometimes not, and sometimes I see the UI come up a second before it reboots again. TWRP bootloader works, so I can try flashing it back with older FW, I but I really would rather go forward. Any way to find out what is happening? I tried ADB, but it does not seem to connect when "optimization" is running
Thanks

FWIW, Several more re-flashes back and forth and a wipe, and it is now working
