I tried factory reset, removed the memory card, no joy. It does it with battery in any charge state including fully charged. It stays on long enough to check a few things, but since it doesn't reboot while in recovery mode, it seems there is a problem in the software. Running Android 10. Any ideas?
Does it do it in safe mode?
If not it's a 3rd party app.
Stock launcher, right?
By watching running services you might see the cause list before it reboots.
Otherwise reflash it; possibly corrupted or bad firmware.
Use known good rom.

Yes, it does it in safe mode as well.
Yes, everything is stock.
Sorry, I'm a noob, so I don't know how to watch the running services.
I will try a reflash. Any suggestions on where to find a good rom? Does it have to be a samsung rom?
Thanks!!

Try clearing the system cache.
Doesn't have to be the stock rom but it would make troubleshooting easier probably.
A Samsung Experience Center at Best Buys can also run advanced diagnostics on it and reflash it.

Running services shows that the settings app is using 160M of ram on average out of about 1.5G. Everything else is much lower.. i think bc the phone is working on updates after factory reset.. It stays around that level and then the phone freezes before rebooting. It is always 1min 48 seconds.
I would love to try replacing the stock rom. Is that available from Samsung perhaps? If all else fails I will check with best buy...good to know! Thanks again.

Tried disabling internet at startup so no updates and same issue. Then tried just leaving it at the let's get started screen and still reboots. I'm guessing reflashing is next. I found instructions on youtube, do you suggest using Odin3? Also do you know of a safe place to download the stock rom? If not I guess another rom will suffice.

I never had to reflash any of my phones. I'm far from the ideal mentor for how to do a reflash, lol nothing bricked yet.
If you look around on XDA you can find links. Get the exact stock rom needed for that device.
You can use a custom rom but it may end up being a Pandora's box of trouble. I run stock for a number of reasons.
Using the same rom be preferably first to ensure it was a corrupted rom.
Normally they don't become corrupted. Using a different rom introduces more variables. It could be a mobo failure in which case a custom rom might give you a work around for it or not depending what failed. It be nice to know the hardware is good from a troubleshooting prospective... and save you needless hair pulling.
A Samsung Experience Center at Best Buy might be a better option as they can reflash it to the original stock rom.
Hey, just thought I'd let you know that I found the stock rom and was able to flash it using Odin. Unfortunately, it didn't help, but something did change. Now the phone reboots every 30 seconds rather than every 1 min 48. That doesn't eliminate a firmware problem, but it also still could be hardware. Bummer. Thanks for your help and maybe I will try a non factory rom since I've got nothing to lose.

Developer options>running services, ram usage
Watch what ram memory is doing. If it dies at the same amount in use regardless of the rom version loaded, you got a bad ram chipset.
It may be a corruption of the bootloader files allocating memory, I don't know as it's beyond my knowledge base.
This sounds a lot like a memory issue though.
Memory allocation among processes | App quality | Android Developers

Good point about the rom usage with the new vs. original rom load. Unfortunately, I didn't write down the memory usage before flashing. Now it uses about 1.8G of ram on average. The screen locks up just before the reboot so I don't see any memory spikes. Settings is using about 150M and one UI about 200

Try opening some memory intensive apps and see that kills it quicker.
If you got a bad mobo better to known sooner than latter.
Good idea. I tried a few times but since the phone is fresh, there aren't many apps. I'll have to play around with it some more tomorrow. Have a good evening!

I think you're right about the memory. It works fine in recovery mode, which probably uses minimal memory. And the build I flashed is UI 2.5 whereas I think the old one was 2.0. I would imagine 2.5 is more memory intensive.

My only question if so, is could the bootloader have become corrupted and is somehow causing this rather than the hardware?
Just a guess... if it has basis in fact I don't know.

Hi guys,
I am using a Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc and am having a lot of trouble with the device constantly crashing and rebooting.
when this first happened these are the steps i took.
i completely wiped the device (factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache partition, format system)
i then flashed Baseband 77 using flashtool
i then flashed fxp149 using flashtool
i then flashed Baseband 77 libs using CWM
i then flashed AOKP JB M1-R1 ROM using CWM
i then flashed gapps using CWM
i the reloaded all apps from the market and not applied any backups and yet it still rebooted all the time.
Since then i have tried using
Fusion 3.8
Fusion 3.9
Fusion 4.0
FXP 148
FXP 150
Stock Kernel inside ROM .zip file.
I have also tried putting it back to Baseband 72 but it made no difference.
None of these make any difference to my issue and yet before i had the issue, I had used all of these kernels except FXP 150 and they all worked fine with no issues at all.
I then decided to go all the way back to stock firmware as it is out of the box.
so I used flashtool and flashed LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716).ftf
I reloaded my applications and monitored the device only to see that by the next day, the problem had returned.
I am now at the end of my tether and do not know what else i can possibly do to figure out the issue.
the device has not been dropped or damaged in any way so there is no reason for a hardware fault.
i desperately NEED this device to be working as i use it on a daily basis for my business and cannot live with out it.
IF THERE IS ANYONE OUT THERE THAT COULD PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP I WOULD BE FOREVER IN YOUR DEBT!!!!!!!
i also have a logcat that i was running in the background when one of the reboots happened
not sure if that can tell anyone anything but i have it if it does
First flash stock kernel (587), after flash the rom compatible with kernel. Remember full wipe before
have you tried not to restore your apps? Maybe one of them causes the problem. I'd try to stick with the clean (stock) rom an check if it still reboots. If it does I guess your device is ready for ebay
Could be a loose battery, try a bit of paper between the battery and the cover and see if that helps.

will i have an issue with getting it repaired since i have unlocked my bootloader, flashed different kernels and roms and rooted the device?
if so, is there any way i can get it back to official "out of the box" state?

i have come across something quite interesting.
i had someone look at the logcat i had running live when i had a reboot and it showed that the last thing to function before the reboot was wifi scanning. they suggested i try turning off wifi and running the live logcat again to see if any reboots occured.
it has now been just over 48 hours and i have not had a reboot at all. i know is because my terminal session is still running the live logcat.
is there anyone that could suggest why this may be happening?
i mean, i know its wifi that is causing the problem, but would that be a hardware issue that could be fixed under warranty? or something else?
any suggestions are appreciated as always

i don't think i can help, i just wanna say that i had (have) the same problem. I said had/have because probably I still have the issue, but i don't notice it that often. Before, I had my phone set to ask for pin code, but now I have removed it to avoid being unreachable if a restart occurs. I have raised the issue long time ago, but really didn't find any answer. Other ppl had same problem with their phone (look at the thread i started about this issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765537)
I also have HTC desire in daily use with CM7.2, that also reboots quite often. So I don't think the phones are broken. More likely it's kenel or rom or app issue, or some combination of those.
If you can tell me how to monitor things, I can do it on both phones, maybe we will figure out what's going on.

if you open a terminal session and type:
su
cd sdcard
logcat >> logcat.txt
it will create a .txt file and put the live logcat info into it.
you need to leave the terminal running in the background to make sure it continues to update
then when you see a reboot just get the logcat.txt file from the sd card and open it in wordpad or something. (notepad doesnt display properly)
have a look at the last thing that happened before the reboot and see what it tells you
mine had info about wifi scanning and showed that it had seen ssids
next step was to turn wifi off to see if the problem stayed or resolved.
good luck!! id love to hear how it goes
On my stock T210R I experienced the system freeze and reboot just a few seconds after power up, it was all stock.
I installed TWRP 2.7.1.0, then wiped it off. Installed gr8nole's ROM (Nov '13 deodexed, rooted). After doing so, there was a Kernel Panic on boot, so I installed Blackhawk kernel 2.1.
After doing all of the above, it still boots up, comes to the initial setup page, runs a few seconds, freezes and reboots.
Do you think this is a hardware problem?
Any suggestions before I sell it for parts on ebay?
Thanks in advance
logs?

does it stay long enough to get logs? even if you have to boot a few times to get them onto your pc and check them out from there?
also with twrp there's some unexplained issue of /data getting corrupted on flashes, the only remedy for which seems to be using the format data option.

Sometimes it goes for several minutes before it freezes, especially if the battery is full, even then apps just randomly close without a notification... Maybe storage related?
Care to share how to gather logs?

I would use ODIN or KYES to flash it back to OEM stock firmware. Also remove the micro SD card if you have one in there, sometimes corrupt cards can cause boot loop.

mostly from /proc and digging through /sys

The tablet did the same without the sdcard, and I tried a couple times to do a factory reset with no luck.
The fact that it does the same with a different ROM and kernel is what makes me think it's hardware related

Ok, it seems to be hardware, as soon as I disable Power Saving mode, the tablet freezes and reboots.
As I understand, power saving mode limits the CPU to a lower performance tier; so I think the CPU is having troubles.
Oh well, as long as I don't try to mine bitcoins with the tablet, I should be good to go.

I'm running rooted deodexed stock ROM with Blackhawk 2.1 kernel.
But as I mentioned in the OP, the problem was there with the full stock device, the new ROM and kernel were installed after the problem started.
ouch
i think you pegged it right with internal storage being damaged.
only thing i can think of besides getting your money back is do a full data partition wipe and format
and a full system wipe and format
either way that has to suck. sorry i couldn't help.

hi, i have a samsung galaxy s3 (ATT).
its rooted, ive been on a few roms this last month, and they all lag at times. sometimes it works flawlessly like it should, but there are many times when my phone just lags. its so bad that i literally have to pull out the battery and put it back in to reboot since rebooting the regular way lags and takes forever as well. ive wiped the system and installed new roms, cleared cache, messed with performace settings (i have them set to 1500 mhz or lower). i have no idea whats causing the lag. must i wipe the entire internal sd first and then install another rom? i need an opinion, any help? thanks
Have you made sure that none of your apps are slowing the device down....I would install something like trepn profiler and see what your soc is doing

Hello, Good Day to all! I wont take too much of your time but please help me!
My Oneplus 3 suddenly bricked itself, I dont know how or why but it just powered off and then when I tried to boot it up it was hard bricked. Now I've managed to fix it by following the Mega Unbrick guide for Oneplus 3 and it boots up, but the problem is it crashes during boot, and it randomly crashes after a few minutes which then leads to the boot logo crash, I have to "let it rest" so to speak for a few minutes so that it would bypass the boot crashes. Once it got past the crashes some apps are not responding like Twitter, Messenger and so on. Stock apps are fine it's the newly downloaded ones that are not responding, I tried numerous factory resets using the stock recovery and TWRP but no luck.
I am on Nougat 7.1.1 on the latest OxygenOS version, Unlocked bootloader with systemless root. I haven't tried flashing a custom rom the only thing I tried to flash was the Stock Rom. I also noticed that the WiFi and the Data/Signal was particularly weaker since the messages would not load, I need to actually check the app for it to sync. When I got Messenger somehow working, the messages would not even load up.
Any ideas what the problem is? Any help is deeply appreciated, Thanks in Advance!

This sounds like an hardware issue, have you tried method 2 of the unbrick tool, perhaps you could try to re-download it, have you unzipped it? If it boots let it boot and then upgrade to a new OOS version and then you can do whatever you want. If it doesn't work after you followed my suggestions you might wanna contact Oneplus, don't worry even though your bootloader is unlocked you still have full warranty..

I did the method 2 of the unbrick tool, I've done it like twice or thrice now. I have the latest version of OOS, I am afraid to flash a custom rom because after it flashes in TWRP it immediately crashes, it does not even give me a chance to clear the dalvik or reboot. It crashes no reboot or anything.
But thank you I didn't expect anyone would reply well I regained my faith in humanity in forums

I would suggest VertexOS. It's simple and really fast, EAS and Voxpopuli takes peformance per watt to the next level, if you like feature you might try Zenixx RR.

Unfortunately that is out of the question, there is no Service Center for Oneplus where I live so I cant get it checked ASAP

My phone has been giving me a lot of problems! It has been heating to an extreme level and lags a lot and uses up the RAM alot! Even with 6GB onboard ram, apps take time to load and the device starts heating upon boot without even loading a single app! Can anybody help me please?

I am on stock Oxygen OS 5.0.3! i dont take custom roms!
Check your battery stats to see what app is using the most battery and remove that app if possible.
If this wont work backup your important information and photos after that do a factory reset.

Did you update via OTA? OnePlus OTA updates strangely muck up the phone sometimes.
If so, download and clean install the full ROM.
