Hey,
So I got my OP 5T on Dec - 01. I switched it on, updated it to the latest firmware (OTA) and installed about 60 apps that I use daily (like Google Sheets, Google Docs, WhatsApp, Facebook etc).
After approx. 60 hours of running, I was taking a few shots of a friend of mine just to check it's portrait mode and initially it was working just fine. But suddenly, when I was checking the recent shots I took, the device got hanged. I waited for a few minutes (3-4 minutes) when it just restarted. Everything was normal afterward. The shots I took were just fine.
Did this happen to anyone else?
Note: I have a habit of closing all apps every hour so I can't imagine more than 5-6 basic apps running in the background when this happened. Those apps would have been: WhatsApp, Chrome, Mail, Play Store and such. Nothing was downloading though. Batter at approx 60%. Stock ROM, no major modifications to settings. Using stock launcher as well.
The Stock Camera app is crashing for me too. Not just on Portrait Mode. I have noticed when the phone is slightly heated/have been using many other apps and switch to camera) this happens. If the phone is lying idle and I use the camera, nothing happens.

I have the Sprint Gnex. It has been laggy with every ROM I have installed. Lag can happen throughout the day to a couple times a week. It is fine for a week or two when new. I went from stock to teambaked black to stock ota 4.2.1(whatever the latest Sprint OTA is) to commotio B57 4.3 then did the update to B59 9-19? Bluetooth using GooManager. Except for the last update I always did a complete erase when loading a new ROM and the only data I carried over was from SMSBackup and Restore App.
Sometimes when loading the camera the camera buttons will be at the top left for several seconds and the screen black when in portrait mode . Restarting multiple times, airplane mode on/off, and overclocking dont change anything. Every button press will take several seconds to load, I never get a low ram warning. Only several apps are used mainly daily.
Am I doing something wrong? How do I stop the lag?
Weird. I have had mine lag from time to time, but a reboot freshens it up and so does Advanced Task Killer. I find things running snappy and quick when I have around 100-200 MB free of RAM. When I get down to ~30 or so MB free, things slow to a crawl like you described. I wonder if you have a bunch of apps running in the background...anything atypical there? (if you go to Settings | Apps | swipe over to Running). How much free RAM do you currently have while having those symptoms?
Also I have found the Facebook app is always running even though I have all abilities for it to sync turned off. I'm so close to uninstalling it and using the browser.
I had lag phone too (Sprint Gnex). I put 10.2CM on it and it runs lag free.

Everytime that I have looked at the Apps folder before there has been 80-100MB free. There are no cached processes but last night I watched it for a couple minutes and it dropped to 30MB. I noticed about 50% of the apps showed restarting all at once. There are 16 Apps running with 8 being system processes. Facebook takes up the most at 40MB. On a fresh restart it dropped as low as 100MB as various apps loaded then exited and it is now hovering at 152MB. 10 mins later with only disabling notifications for RetailMeNot and Google Offers and disabling the Apex Launcher it is down to 77MB with 36MB in cashed processes.
I might try a stable CM like user readable mentioned.
After my original phone went into bootloops after the marshmallow update, I got a replacement within 1 day (thanks, AT&T, they really surprised me with customer service on this one). Unfortunately, my replacement has been full of issues. For starters, I used to get maybe 1% per hour max battery drain with idle and screen off with location and sync on (would be 97-99% in the morning if it was 100% before sleep), but now it is 5+% per hour, same battery as before, even switching it with my spare, no difference. I have Greenify installed and have a decent number of things greenified, but I don't want to have to also turn off location and sync just to get still worse battery life than I had before. A factory reset did not fix the issue. Google Play Services seems to inexplicably be taking more battery than phone idle now but it is not enough to be explaining this battery issue fully.
Also, I get lag in various applications, including pre-installed system applications. Most noticeably, Chrome and Chrome Beta have the same issue of freezing 3-10 seconds before the page is completely loaded which is an extreme nuisance. Reinstalling the apps and clearing the cache/data did not help. Various system applications run with lag too. I moved some applications to the SD card and the settings app was lagging so terribly it crashed a few times.
Any ideas to my phone woes?
Hi!
Since the first (official) upgrade to Android 7, and even now with the new 7.1, I've been having this issue everytime I use any of these apps.
I always used runkeeper to track my mtb trails and it always worked perfectly. When this started to happen once, twice, etc, I decided to change to Strava, as I assumed it was an app problem.
The same thing happened on strava!
This situation happens on a random time (it happened once after 10 minutes of use, it happened other time after 2 hours of use, completely random). I have kept with strava as, after a force close, when I open the app again, it recognizes that a problem has happened and it restarts from the last recorded place.
Anyhow, this is a very annoying situation, as if I don't notice that the app closed, I will loose most of the trail.
I have disabled "Agressive doze & app hibernation".
Any other ideas?
Thanks
I have the same on 8.0. Compleate stopper for using OP.
All fitnes apps that use gps stop after 10 or 20 or 30 min of bacground work.
Also i use heart rate sensor and it does not restarts itself. It stales Bluetooth and you can not reconnect hr sensor without rebooting device
Considering to swith to Samsung)
Try turning battery optimization off in settings for those apps. I am not sure if this works but give it a try.
Over the past few months, I've noticed that some standard functions of my phone routinely fail and no longer seem to work properly until I reboot and/or wait a certain number of days until they magically start to work again (only to break again).
1) The auto-adjust sensor is waaaaay off at gauging ambient light. Whenever I'm in bright, sunny environments (like outdoors or by a window with sun coming through it), the brightness and backlight adjust to the lowest level so that it looks like my screen isn't on. The opposite happens whenever I'm in a room with low or no lighting, making it look like a supernova is in my hand and hurting my eyes. In the past, the sensor would eventually adjust to correctly accommodate the lighting, but now it just doesn't.
2) A large number of apps that are set up for fingerprint login immediately give me an error notification that I've exceeded my fingerprint login attempts whenever I open them, forcing me to instead log in with a pin number. Closing and reopening these apps doesn't fix the error, rebooting doesn't fix it, and clearing the app's cache and/or data doesn't fix it. I just have to wait it out until it works again, which is usually 2 days to 1 week after I've last used the app.
3) Holding the Power + Homes button no longer takes screenshots. I can fix this one by rebooting, but eventually this combo stops working again.
4) Several apps, specifically Google Maps and Chrome, will often crash up to 3 times before they're able to stay open and work. I also routinely hard crash out of everything whenever a foreground app I'm currently using (like Chrome) crashes, which causes everything open in the background (like my music or YouTube app that are playing) to also crash.
5) My battery level is stuck at 69% and won't drop. For the past 4 hours, Android OS, GSAM and BetterBatteryStats all show that I have 69% percent battery remaining and continue to show that percentage even though I have nearly 1 hour SoT. I can only get 2 hrs 15 min of SoT before my battery runs out, so I know this isn't right. This battery thing just started today.
Why is everything breaking?!? Since December, I've not installed any new apps, system updates or really traveled anywhere. Before I flashed the ROM I'm on (LeeDroid v5.2.3-R151) last November or so, I did a full wipe and did not restore any apps or settings so that everything was fresh.

Since you're having multiple, seemingly unrelated issues, there is no way for anyone to tell why it's happening in your specific case. Why don't you try dirty flashing your leedroid rom, and if that still fails, start from scratch?
Fairphone 3+ , /e/ , Magisk
A few days ago, my phone ran out of battery and died. No problem, I just let it recharge for a few minutes and turned it back on. However, it's not working properly anymore.
It generally runs a little slower than it has been. Sometimes it won't respond, or it will fall asleep within 10-20 seconds.
Some background processes don't seem to work all the time. At one point I didn't get Signal messages for several hours until I opened the app.
Some apps / subtasks in apps take extreeeemely long to load (several minutes for things that used to take seconds), and some apps / subtasks don't work.
Every few hours (or less) my phone will just randomly crash and restart.
Another weird thing is that several stock apps that I deinstalled with a debloating tool have reappeared? I can't open them though, so I don't think they're actually installed.
I tried uninstalling AdAway and ProtonVPN because at first I thought it might be some sort of networking timeout problem, but that didn't fix the issue, so I reinstalled them.
Take a long time:
Apps (/e/ app store), Nextcloud News when I open an article, a boardgame which I have since deinstalled, Spotify Lite
Crashes:
Files, Settings->Apps & app data, VLC
I'm uploading two logcat files. One from after an app (I think it was Files) crashed, another from shortly after when the phone crashed.
I don't have a ton of experience with android debugging, but this sounds like some sort of corruption in some part of the system?
