MI A2 lite - Phone randomly rebooting multiple times - Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers

Hi all,
I bought the phone in the subject almost 3/4 months ago and I always had issues with the sd card I bought (sandisk Ultra 128GB) as, at the beginning when the phone was using Oreo 8.1 the card was constantly resulting as not connected (External card stopped working) however thi swas working despite the error.
I have previously noticed that the phone was rebooting itself every now and then but I never paid to much attention to it.
Since I updated to Android Pie, however, this issue started becoming more persistent. In a day the phone can reboot itself multiple times (sometimes even 5/6 times in a short period) and, although the card is not failing anymore prompting the error message preaviously mentioned, this still keeps giving problems as, right after reboot the card is not recognised and a different message is prompted saying that the card has not been inserted in the device.
The error disappears only after I unlock the phone as this is recognised and the apps are loaded.
Reading through the internet I noticed that many people face the same problem or similar and no fix as been provided as of yet.
I tried everything I could: Factory reset, flashing the stock rom from scratch (following the forum's thread), using the phone in Safe Mode (in this case the card wasn't loaded by the system so no reboot happened or at least not fort the time has been in safe mode) and updating to the latest version of Pie but nothing.
I also ran an hardware test to see if the issue was due to a bad hardware component and I still have a monitoring app in case the issue happens again (as it is really random. sometimes it can pass an entire day before the issue arises again).
Has anyone had a similar issue and found a fix/workaround?
I really love the product and I think this is something that can happen as, by my point of view, this is something caused by the software or the stock rom itself, however I would like this to be resolved as, at the moment, this is really frustrating, plus being a long time issue I think it might cause serious problems to the phone's hardware.
Please let me know.
Best regards to all of you,
Davide

Is your sandisk fake?
You can checked wit app call "sd insight" , but the app only works on old OS (latest i try jelly bean 4.1)
But even your sandisk fake, the only common thing happened is the sd card ejected or android remounting over and over thats all , not until reboot randomly (based on my experience using fake ext sd card)
Maybe you can try with another sd card you have or your friends have, if the symptom happened again , I dont want to judge but maybe its hardware problem? But dont know for sure just my 2 cents bro...

How did you format your card? Did you use internal or external option? Saw few posts with same issues and strange enough all with Sandisk cards.

Disappearing SD card

Since I've had my Artemis occasionally after a soft reset the SD card appears as not installed. I would have to remove the battery and sim etc, replace the SD card into the holder and start-up the phone and it'd usually be ok. The only trouble is lately it seems to be doing this more frequently and it is becoming more difficult to get the phone to recognise the card upon start-up again. Anyone else experience this? Have an cure?
i've had the same problem on my magican. The solution i found was to remove the SD card and place it back. It seems to me that cardreader's contacts broken.
Its big but you must read first.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285511&page=24
So the card is corrupt? Because when I stick it into my pc it reads it perfectly fine, no problems or slowness.
My phone has stopped recognising the card completely now, but when I started the phone in safe mode using iLauncher it recognised it surprisingly. I'm suspecting there may be a piece of software or a setting stopping the phone from recognising it. I'll have a read through that link some more tho just in case there is a solution.
If anyone else has another solution then it would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Update: I've tried another 2 known working SD cards and neither of which are recognised by my device to it looks as tho its an issue with the phone and not the card. Has anyone experienced this before?
I've the same problem. I use 2 SanDisk cards, 512Mb and 2Gb, both of them seem to disappear as I boot the device. It hapens 50% of times and begins when I installed the HTC ArtemisSDEnhancement program.
I've tried to uninstall and reinstall several times and to format the crad but the errors continues at the 50% times.
When the P3300 reads the card I notice an abnormal slow response to any input and at the end it hungs for a big while. If you leave it alone it comes back but I usually need the phone now and I must have to soft reset.
I'm about to hard reset and try again but I don't have time.
Well I hard reset my device before I was going to post it back to o2 for a replacement and surprise surprise its working fine again!
That was 23 days ago and since then its behaved perfectly. I've installed the SD enchancement just in case but not certain if that's made any difference. Finger crossed its the last time the card starts disappearing.
This happens on my MDA C3 too now and again.
When it does, a soft reset does not solve it.
I have to take the battery out and then reinsert it.
After powering up the problemis not there.
Anyone know why this is happening as its really inconvenient to keep taking the battery out.
Thanks in advance.
BTW, one thing I have noticed, it seems to happen more often after a registry value change if that help anyone???

Problem with SD Card

I don't seem to be having much luck with my Desire what with Youtube sync problems, connectivity issues and now a nice new problem has occurred for a second time so I thought it was worth throwing it out and see if anyone else has experienced this.
Twice now my phone has popped up with a message saying its unable to complete a back up of my settings to the SD Card. After this message is dismissed I can no longer access the SD Card and I have to restart the phone to get it back again. I can eject the sdcard from the settings menu but obviously you can't actually get the thing out so that option is kind of worthless.
Starting to think it might be worth getting a replacement handset, but not certain there is anything actually wrong with it. For reference I have a 4gig SD card that came pre-installed as seems the norm with the HTC Desire.
Your memory card is probably loose.
Happened to me ONCE. I took it out, gave it a clean, shoved it back in and had no problems since,

I have the same issue Intermittent and irritating. I have taken it out and reseated it but after a while it comes back again.

random reboots and Reasons/Solutions

hi i upgraded my xps lt26 i on ics to build (ICS)6.1.a.2.55 ota and it was so far going smooth with no mess around till yesterday night
my battery was drained after a whol day use and i came back home left phone plugged for charge(switched off) turned on later on, the phone then stayed for half an hour and then the problem started
phone started rebooting and random boots
the phone since then is behaving like that
i left it like that at 11 o clock the battery was drained(morning)
i was upset.
i figured out the phone is switching off it self, searched out to find the issue but no luck, well
then i noticed that the phone is saying sim error( only once i seen this) i removed the sim card( which actually is not cutted the way it should be, means it was a full sime card( regular orange sim card) i tried to make it micro sim card and cutted in a bad shape but it was working fine
now i have removed the sim card from phone, inserted another sim card in the phone, and the phone is no longer rebooting( i will update this)
i felt:
it might be the sim card reading error on sim tray cause mine was slightly cutted in bad shape plus the reading pannels were also bit trimmed
secondly i have seen there is a bug in ics causing random reboots
if people around faced this issue, they have possibly solutions to hard reset, clean memory by hard reset( power plus volume up), refreshing the firmware via sony pc suite, or finally sending it to repair centre but MINE IS not in warrnty
if any one else had this issue in past or facing this problem can add ,
please share your experience and any possible solution.
Do a factory reset and then update again with PCC, problem is you would loose root then. But there's no else solution available for the random reboots.
Happened with me too, So I decided to stick at Firmware 0.50 since 0.55 offers nothing new or special
reboots
Well
I haven't been rebooted since afternoon
I am sure it's SIM card issue I m facing but personally speaking I started hating Sony
Its waste of money
Look at each flagship leader Sony comes up
Then tons of issues
I will update if anything happened again
Thanks

SiM problem (Not recognised)

Hello everyone.
Since a couple of days my phone is getting a strange problem.
Sometimes when I turn it on, it doesn't recognise the SIM.
Sometimes it turns on with no problems, but, randomly, a pop up message appear, saying something like "Mobile data won't be available until you mount a proper SIM" with a progression line under the text, and then the phone, most of the times, reboots. Other times the SIM stops working with no warning.
I have tried the SIM on another phone and seems to work ok. I have tried to reseat the SIM as well, several times.
I was running Fulmics 5.0. I experienced this problem so I upgraded to Fulmics 5.2, full wipe, but the error kept presenting.
I even tried to add a layer of paper over the SIM so it couldn't move, but nothing.
I don't think it's an overheating problem because the error presented even when I just restarted with the phone still cold.
I wonder if it is an hardware problem, because I was running Fulmics 5.0 for several months and I never experienced this problem.
It shouldn't be related to some Xposed module, since I deactivated all of them.
Can anyone please give some advices? I'd like to try everything before taking it in assistance...I have never dropped it, if it is related to the hardware it would be strange for it to come out of the blue at random...
Update:
I tried to flash the last CM13. The phone doesn't reboot, but the SIM stops working as well.
The SIM stops working even when the mobile phone is still somewhere, so I guess it's not like that I move the phone and the SIM loses contact on the SIM reader I guess...
Update:
I sent it to repair it, on warranty. They changed a piece, and now it works.

Obviously you move all of your stuff to a computer or usb SSD or HDD and factory reset or flash stock firmware with XiaoMiFlash tool.

Thank you bro
Yesterday my phone kept restarting, and my Sim card wasn't functioning when it did turn on. It wouldn't even power on after a while, had to wait for about 20 minutes and try again. One weird thing I noticed is I couldnt search settings (setting suggestions wouldn't work) I used an air compressor on the Sim card slot with the cover removed and it seemed to help. But I also did some software changes to see if it would help. like turned off memory extension and cleared dalvik cache and cache with recovery. I'm not sure what exactly made my phone function like normal again.
So after about a day the issue starts again, first my Sim card shows up beside my clock with an X through it,the data icon gets grayed out, I will not be able to access the mobile networks option In settings without my phone freezing and a process has stopped responding message ,and my settings suggestions stop working too. I'm just really confused lol, because it seems like software, but the only thing that actually made my phone work like normal again, was removing the Sim card slot and blowing Compressed air into the phone. Simply removing and reinserting the sim card did nothing, but the air helped.
I can't tell if I'm having a software issue, or hardware issue, or I suppose it could also be the sim card itself maybe, but yeah if anyone can shed any light it would be amazing.

I think something is overheating in the phone. I haven't had any issues since it's been a little cooler weather wise, where I live.
Second guess is the phones been "sweating" moving it from hot outside to cool inside ac, maybe created internal moisture condisation. I'm leaning towards mosture because taking Compressed air to the open sim card slot, seemed to be the only thing that worked.
I am wondering if this is something that can be easily repaired (opening phone and resoldering maybe) or at least that's my hope, I really don't have another phone to use if I send this one away to be fixed.
Edit: So it's been a few weeks now and I haven't had any issues.
I downgraded my kernel to previous version (BaalamKernel-2.1.1_alioth vs newest)
And I've been using my phone without its case in hopes it can breathe better or dry out any moisture that built up over time.
Still not sure if it's hardware or software but knock on wood, no issues so far.
