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"?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
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?
Hello,
So I bought a G3 the day before yesterday and yesterday was my first day with it, and for that first day my phone had shutdown twice on its own. The first time was when my phone was lying on the bed and doing nothing, it had around 50% battery and was not hot or anything.
The second time was this night i don't know when, i have put my G3 on the charger and went to sleep i woke up and it had shutdown.
I didn't made factory reset when i got i from the box which i will when i come home from work and hopefully this will fix it, but does anyone have a problem like that? If is something serious i will be disappointed to return the phone.
p.s. My previous phone was galaxy s2 and had this king of problem only with custom roms and kernels, but i have not put anything on the G3 yet, except activating the developers options and had switched it to ART and the first time the phone had shutdown i thought that the art was the issue and switched it back to dalvik, the second time though was on dalvik.

I have the exact same problem. The past few days when I go to bed and wake up in the morning, the phone has shut itself off. I haven't rooted or installed any custom roms.
I would advise you both to take a factory reset, only install apps you need for a few days and see if the problem persists, if it doesn't install your apps back one by one as it may well be a particular app causing the reboots.
If you still get reboots after the reset and with no apps installed then you may have to take the phone back to swap it.

Yes as I said in the first post the factory format and hard reset will be the first thing that will be done as soon I am at home. About the apps i have pretty much basic apps (facebook, messenger, soundcloud, etc) all from the market except smashhit of which i have the apk and installed from the internal memory.
Except those apps I have 2 mp3s and some wallpapers and nothing else, becouse when i got my phone it was late on the evening and i had no time to do anything else. So the phone is pretty much out off the box and I was verry frustrated when the secound shutdown happened, becouse i tought the first was from the ART runtime.
Anyway today I will have more time to spend on the phone and we will see what will happend.
p.s. The phone does not reboots, just shuts off.

Is it definitely off or is the phone just stuck on a black screen? It is quite common on some devices when something is not quite right for the kernel to be unable to wake the phone up, the phone is still technically on but stuck in deep sleep.
does holding the power button for 2 seconds turn it on? or do you have to hold it for say 7-8 seconds?

It is definetly shut down around 2 seconds(the normal time to hold the power button to turn on) it turns on and work perfectly and does not show anything suspicious in its behavior, it's super fast, not laggy and etc, may be a little high on ram consumptions but with this havy skin i think it is normal or could not be normal idk, the ram consumptions go from about 1,2GB the lowest i have seen to up to 2,3 the highes i have seen.
Anyway about the shut off think yes defenetly 100% sure it is off, it happend again a while ago and i thoght the same thing may be it si deep asleep even i had chacked the weather 10 min ago and call myself from a friends phone and the operator said that the phone is off or i am somewhere without network covarage.
i got same problem. it turn off it selft and black screen even battery still 70%. rmust remove the battery to restart again, ealy bad. huft

If you have to remove the battery to get it to restart then its not actually shut off, its just stuck in deep sleep! which is usually caused by a bad app.
Yes if you have to remove the battery the problem is different, i just have to push the power button and it boots right away after it have shuted off by its self........
i didnt have this issue with my 855. but i did a factory reset after i got the phone just for the hell of it
So it's reset time i finally have some time to the some staff on the phone so hopefully everything will be fine. I will post if this fix or not the problem to inform the other people in this thread.

did you have any luck with the problem? I have the same issue, performed a factory reset and restored, hopefully it will fix too..
Hi all!
I have and have had the same problem and think I've pinpointed the problem to Google Search but can't 100% confirm it yet. I didn't do a factory reset when I got the phone and it shutdown during the night. I did a factory reset, made sure it got enough time to update everything properly. Problem was gone and worked fine. HOWEVER, the phone kept asking me which home screen I prefer at random times when I hit the home button. With random I mean like 4+ times per day. I searched the net and found a threat saying that a guy with a G2 solved the problem by removing Google Search updates. So I decided to do just that and get the factory version back and the questions disappeared but guess what, the phone shut down the following night.
Any takers or might this just be random? Note that it was working fine for three days with the updated Google Search and shutdown the first night after the downgrade.
So I did hard reset and so far so good the phone had not shutted down itself, and I updated everything which need to be updated (mentioning this for the guy with the upper post). So far so good I will keep you in touch if something goes bad...

I suggest take it to your dealer and get it replaced asap. I've seen lots of returned phones(my job at XXXXXXX company ) with the same issue, and as long as the defect is reproducible the dealer will give you a new phone. If it's outa replacement period then they'll probably repair it.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand shut down again but this time it took quite a bit time longer to shut off by its self so i tought the problem was fixed, but it's not, so i am going to the store which i buy it from to replace the device.....
Does this also happen with the korean models?
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.
Hello,
Today, while I was using my phone, it restarted itself and has been stuck at a boot loop almost entirely since then. It has successfully booted up 2-3 times but will usually restart itself within 30-45 seconds of booting and then will be stuck in a boot loop again. When it has started up its usually after it has been bootlooping for a while. I have an H811 , I'm rooted and using xTreme Rom v2.0. I have had occasional random reboots here and there before but the phone always booted right up again without any issues. I haven't done anything with root/recovery since early September.
I've tried doing a factory hard reset without any luck. My phone booted up after I tried the hard reset and it was like the reset didn't happen. I can't boot into TWRP. I can boot into download mode and I tried to reset using kdz. It got to 100% but the the phone restarts and is back in the boot loop (then the lg flash tool gets an error and force quits). I've tried removing my sd and sim cards, I've tried swapping to a different battery, I've tried leaving the battyer out and letting the phone cool down. Nothing is working. I have noticed that when the phone is going to boot up correctly the full LG animation plays. When the phone is going to boot loop I only get a static LG Powered by android image.
Since I tried and failed to reset to stock using kdz, the phone no longer boots up past the LG screen. I've redownloaded the kdz file and tried to reset again with the same results. When I have it in download mode Windows recognizes the phone but it says there's an issue with the MTP driver. I've reinstalled the drivers and I still get that the MTP function isn't working correctly.
Any suggestions?

I am having the same issue. I have T-Mobile G4 that is NOT rooted. I bought it on release day. I too would get random reboots, particularly after the recent security update. I also noticed that the operating temperature was really high, a lot lately. I thought it was a rogue app (clean master). Anyway, I updated a few apps and installed a few watch faces. Suddenly, my phone was drained prematurely. Plugged it into a quick charge charger when all the fun begins. Early on it would boot to the home screen but would reboot a minute or two later. Then it stopped booting to home. On two occasions that I caught, it was starting up like a firmware update just installed with the "Android is starting 1 of 143 apps" type of line. After seeing that and still not getting to home, I figured I might as well factory reset it. Well I was amazed to discover that a factory reset yields the same boot loop. All I get is the LG logo.
Defeated. I go to my local TMo retailer where I bought the phone only to find out that I have to wait for delivery of a replacement. I'm in Jump btw. I did notice that when the phone will boot to home screen for whatever length of time, the LED would work. The LED does not work during a boot loop. My research on this issue uncovered an alarming trend on the Internet. No solution other than replacement. No cause has been identified either. Without proof, these are my top suspicions: Quick charge, 128G SD, apps moved to SD. My hunch is quick charge. All of my chargers are Qualcomm certified quick chargers. and I use them 95% of the time. I would hate to add LG to my list of boycotted Android vendors under Samsung.

Sounds like the boot loop issue is a decent sized one- quite a few others, from different variants, having all having a similar issue. For me I was walking with my phone checking facebook when it restarted and got stuck. I definitely notice the LED issue too. I'm not on jump but will likely go into T-Mobile today and see what they tell me.

Exactly what happened to me. now after CSE flash of KDZ, it won't start at all. just boot looping. also after hard reset.
My note 4 randomly freezes and goes to black. It also randomly restarts, gets stuck, and then restarts again. It's very annoying, if I want to check something, I hit the home button and the phone is frozen on the lock screen. Random apps are also crashing but instead if just closing the app my phone's screen just shuts off and I can't get into the phone for at least a minute. I don't know what the problem is and I really don't want to factory reset my phone.
I would pull the battery and take out the SD card (if you have one) and sim card and boot it up and see if that helps.
If u r using de-bloatware app then try restoring all the apps.
Factory reset, don't install anything and see if it continues. Then start installing a couple of apps till it happens again, try to identify the offending
App.
Same here.. Just started happening 2 weeks ago.. I have yet to find the offending app. ****ing ATT and their ****ty note 4 ughhhh
Happening to me too. Even after factory reset, and in Safe mode. I think it is from the June 16, update. I plan on taking it in to the att store and having them flash the new update to the phone. Thinking maybe my over the air update got screwed up somehow.
I put mine on ultimate power saving mode at night to keep it from dying since I forgot my charger. When I woke up, I tried to turn off ultimate power saving mode, but the option was gone. I rebooted and it got stuck at the att boot logo. I took it to the att store and they said I'd have to file a claim on insurance and that they can't fix it.
I cane home and connected it to adb to see if I could back up my files. Without sending a command to it, it wiped itself and factory reset. I lost everything, but since then I have had no issues.
Mine started doing this a couple of weeks ago. Factory reset twice, sd card out. Still doing it. Had to go back to note 3. With sd card and sim card out it seems to work ok on WiFi only.. No stuttering or force closes since?

Mine was doing the same thing. Turns out the battery was taking a crap. New battery and no more issues. For myself at least.
Mine is unusable. It boots into download mode half the time after factory reset. When I get it to boot up it only lasts for 15 minutes then resets again and gets stuck

Try what I did accidently. Connect to your pc. Boot into recovery lode and see if you can connect with adb. Then connect to with adb sideload and let it sit there. Maybe send a few commands and see if it will do like mine. It might get it to unhang. You might lose everything if it restores, but it might do like mine.

Mine mostly ok, albeit chained to at&t FIRMWARE, but I do get an odd eeror: when in a call the phone will make a a keypad tone,as though I'm leaning on the keypad [not], often mid-Bluetooth handsfree calls. It last 2-4 seconds, long enough to interrupt the flow of a call. anyone ?
I have had tons of apps update as of late. I too am experiencing lag, lock ups, black screen. I thought I was alone.
Had a friend's Note 4 do the same only he was on Sprints network. He was not rooted and on MM. I tried a factory reset and it helped for an hour or two then it went back to random rebooting or apps freezing. I tried flashing factory software through ODIN. It was good for an hour then went back to random reboots and apps freezing. I tried another ODIN flash without restoring any of his apps and the same thing happened. I tried changing the battery and that wasn't it, I removed the SD card and that wasn't it either.
He had to take it to Sprint and they ended up just giving him an S7.

I started having this problem just after the update. I tried to switch the battery out and tried to take SD card out. I factory reset it about 3 times now. Nothing has solved it.
I took it into AT&T, and even though I'm not under warranty anymore (had phone for almost 2 years now), they worked with me and ended up giving me a new s7.
I suggest you go talk to AT&T because this is a problem with all AT&T Note 4's. Tell them you want it fixed and talk to the managers and get them to contact the corporate help desk. Don't leave without them fixing it. You paid $900 for this phone.
Gave you a new S7? Or swapped it out on a next contract?

I did not pay a dime. But you have to show them that it freezes and crashes even after they factory reset it
Just left an [email protected] store. He looked at me like I had 3 heads. He had never heard of such. Will call corporate and work my way down.
I did hold a S7 edge.... it was a thing of beauty and speed. No ir though... it's why I like note 4
Works without sim
I've had the exact same issues, (Galaxy Note 4 on AT&T). Tried factory reset, wiping cache, re-flashing with odin, removing SD card, removing apps, multiple batteries, etc.... the only thing that has worked so far is removing the SIM card. It runs flawless without it. Currently using my S3 for calls and text and use the note 4 like a giant iPod touch on wifi only. Hoping this is a software issue AT&T will correct but knowing them..... best bet is probably to wait until August and get the new Note 7.
Why not try the MM update that is out right now, it´s not an OTA but by just renaiming the file to update.zip, putting it in your ds card and applying it through recovery you will have a practically new phone, it´s worth the try.
I´m ruuning it and it´s been great so far, no bugs, no errors.
