Hi, my syster have Samsung Ace 5830 and she told me that she have random reboots on her phone ( 2-3 times a week ). She is with Android version 2.2 , no root....all stock ! She have only installed Skype,Stop Skype and batteryminder ! Do you have the same problem? What can she do ? Thanks.
Does she have random reboot or SOD (sleep of death) and she has to reboot her phone after ?
She have to enter a PIN code... I thing it is random reboot

Well, I think you don't have many options.
1. Maybe she has an issue with batteryminder so she has to uninstall it. I'm a skype user too but i don't use "stop skype" to close it.
2. Try to flash her phone with a new stock ROM ?
3. Or send her phone back to her seller ?
It's really hard to find what the issue is when you just have some clue and no phone in your hand. :/

I had the same problem with my bro's ace.. tried factory reset, rooting.. unrooting.. but nothing helped.. but now have installed the new rom 2.3.4.. and the problem is gone.. been almost 2 days now without a restart... and battery life also seems to be far more better than stock 2.2.1
hope this helps..
Sorry to bump such an old thread, but I had these problems as well.
I was on a build of CM9 and this happened non stop all day.
I'm now using stocklite 7.1 which I flashed yesterday. And since then it has restarted on its own every few hours.
I don't know what it is, but now I'm thinking it might be a certain combination of apps that are causing the crashes. I have ES task manager, and that me interfering with the stock task manager that causes the crashes.

To begin with I don't think that is the cause and you shouldn't kill apps frequently using task manager, maybe you could try out some ram scripts (like v6 super charger). Also, the app "titanium backup" is able to freeze apps, thus leaving it installed but inactive (for the other task manager).
CM9 is not that stable from my experience so I can't really conclude anything there.
But as for the stocklite (which I assume is based on stock firmware) might have the SOD(sleep of death) issue, usually caused by having the Wifi connecting/reconnecting or when it tries to find spots. If you always leave your wifi on, that might be the problem.

Hello all. I'm starting this thread to find out what made the phone process constantly FC in cyanogenmod7. Hope other users can contribute to this testing.
For me I suspect it's probably related to app data. Installing too many apps and moving it to sd may have led to the FC.
The second time I tried, moving dalvik to sd caused it.
Third flash, everything was stable until recent lags in browsers. It can be so laggy it affects locking screen. Feedback comes 10 seconds late. Held power button to force reboot, poof! Another phone process force close.
What led to that in cyanogenmod for you guys?

Weird. Do you think it's the swap partition?
you know what i did? i wiped the battery stats in CWM then when i turned the Ace on, phone app goes FC! good thing Lovetz provided that fix though; haven't encountered that since FC then.

That guy saved my ass as well, installed the middleclock mod which brought the FC error.
But I have experienced FCs from time to time, even after using that fix.

I don't experience any problem with the centre clock mod .
Forever living in my Galaxy Ace using XDA App
Happened to me after rebooting after I restored some apps from titanium backup(did not occur immediately after restoring...occurred after rebooting).That was before Lovetz's fix. So I had to factory reset. But that did not occur after that ever again(after restoring over 100 apps including those apps).
Seems like a random bug that pops out when it wants to.
I dont use apps to sd and dont keep alot of apps on the phone. I do use center clock mod and a theme. I've only had it once. I think its related to the kernel, it far from complete but im confident that given time the guys will fix it. Also i heard coolya is back on the project, if thats true its based in his work so he will probably find a fix. I think patents is the key here. There is a fix for now, its something we must live with for an otherwise incredible rom.

Yeah it's incredible except for some stability problems that makes it not so trustworthy. Just to substantiate, I notice extreme lags right before the next boot which will have the fc of the phone process.
Since I'm on ICS I have this strange problem with the official FB client.
As Soon as i start FB my processor gets pumped up to the maximum of 1ghz. Even when i click the Home Button and start up Voltage Control i can see the processor is at max.
Only when i close FB (with task manager or long press back key on CM9) the processor goes down to 200mhz and stays there...
effect : as soon as i start FB and don't quit it right my battery will be drained in a short time..
Since the first ICS release I am googling this problem but can't find any information about this. Now I'm a little bit fed up with it, thats why i'm posting it here...does anyone else recognize this? is there a workaround?
thanks for the help...
check your battery info,get cpuspy to see what speed your cpu has been going at and the deepsleep and betterbatterystats for wakelocks etc
this guy has similar issue
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1571518
i already checked with all mentioned tools.
strange thing is there is no wakelock... it's only when screen is on but application is in background.
i have this problem on different ICS Roms. at the moment i am on cm9 and it is still present. when i check with "top" in terminal i can see that facebook.katana is at the top keeping the cpu pretty busy.
with samsung roms and the original samsung task manager i can see that it's always using over 50% cpu power.
i tried older versions. tried deinstalling. nothing helps.
i just dont know what it is doing in the background. cpuspy shows me that the cpu is mostly in 1ghz and deepsleep.
edit: i double checked and its also killing deepsleep. sometimes it enters sometimes not...

Same here. I've Galaxy S2 and since update to ICS official firmware have i have this problem. I noticed that all rom that have as baseline official Samsung ICS have this problem, while other (e.g. CyanoMod 9) don't have. The only fix is to kill application from task manager.
Which is your device?

It happens to me on cm9 also... Every ICS Rom.
So No one has a solution for US?
Just to let you guys know that this also happens on my Nexus S with ICS 4.0.4 stock
In fact it happened also with Gingerbread... it started happening when Facebook made a major app overhaul to what is currently the new "user experience" for the past 4-5 months or so... that's when Watchdog which I have installed suddenly started complaining
Sorry for digging out this bit older thread, but have you found a solution yet ? I got the same problem since i changed to ics roms - first sammy leaks, then official, now nightlies. Tried wiping cache, dalvik, userdata, reinstalled app, ... to no effort.
Thinking about coding a facebook-killer widget. Take a look on this screens, 2 hours of cpu time for nothing...

I just use Watchdog what normally complains about Facebook a few minutes after I stop using it. Then I just kill the process from within Watchdog.
Using the browser is fine though.. however some things don't work so well in the mobile browser version.
To me this problem is quite symptomatic however from what I read on the internet it doesn't happen all the time.. even sometimes for me it doesn't stay clogging the cpu but most of the times it does.
I guess they will fix it one day but I wouldn't hold my breath that it will be soon. I read that on the iPhone the way they designed the app is pretty bad (it's sort of a skin over the actual mobile website). For Android it might be the same..
That the facebook devs are coding big BS (sorry) is really known.
Can you provide me a link to the google play site of Watchdog ? Too many results, i don't know which one... thanks

Seems that it's a problem with the official ICS ROMs. Try Friendcaster and see if that's any better.

i uninstalled facebook for this
friends caster is A LOT better than facebook app
personally I didn't like Friendcaster. It was smoother in operation that Facebook's official app but it had some quirks (now can't remember them but there were a few things you couldn't do as opposed to FB's official app). But what stopped me from using it was the extended awake times I was getting even without automatic refreshes set up.

i have to take battery out to start again.
very frustrating anybody had this problem at all?
sorry if posted in wrong forum
happens on all roms I believe (definitely cm9 based... though I'm on a Sammy rom and it's also happening, though might be because I'm undervolted) - most annoyingly is, it also leads to the loss of data... I saw someone mentioning that the developers were aware of it...

suddenly my samsung galaxy s3 keeps freezing and I have to make a hard reset every time. I tried to make factory reset, or wipe factory reset, but the same problem.
what should I do?
are you on SDS-safe firmware?
Dude, instead of creating yet another post with this, you could have searched to quite easily find out your phone is halfway dead and should be sent back to samsung for repair as soon as possible. Make it safe to return if you messed with it (flash original stuff, reset counter, etc, read a bit if you don't know what to do, it's all over these forums) and just take it in.
Don't take this the wrong way but you'd think it's common sense to just return any product (not even phone related) that it's malfunctioning instead of asking what to do to random people in a third party forum

use the sds safe précautions to prevent freezing
Envoyé depuis mon GT-I9300 avec Tapatalk
And what are the sds safe precautions or where can I find it?
just search in the general section
Device:GT-I9300 32gb
I have the same problem, this seems to be firmware related to me, the phone works in safe mode but this is really crappy now. I don't think there should be a return unless it's the only fix.Will try and flash JB and update the post.
Edit: Is that sds the Sudden death thing. I tried searching but no results come up. I am a new comer to Samsung as their devices sucked for ages and they still seem to do. Please can some one advise us(the op and myself and future people with this problem) on what is the main cause of this issue that a hard reset fixes it. But for my device,it doesn't die it stops functioning.
This is how I get this problem, my phone is rooted, but it runs fine only when there is a app crash the phone locks up and thats it.
what i tried: I tried to back up my data so i could save myself from reinstalling all my app. I hard reseted the phone and the phone functioned again
but after restoring my data the phone locks up again. Now my phone works about 5sec from normal boot but then locks up. It works fine in safe mode. So really where is issue? Is an app is making the whole OS to jam there has to be a simple fix for this.
Please don't say return the device, thats the dumbest thing to ever say. We want to over come the problem not ignore it/get rid of it.
Thanks for your time guys

Probably not. Depends on what causes your problem.

I was getting similar behaviour too. Phone would freeze after making calls, sending msgs, using facebook, searching on google, basically random points anywhere. Went through uninstalling apps, did a factory reset, and through some trial and error finally pinned down where my problem was at least. It was caused by the latest version of MixZing. Was crashing before frequently, and after uninstalling it I've been using my phone fine all day with no crashes at all. Still potentially early days, but if I don't report back then that solved it for me.
A simple solution
ok guys.. this is something i tried and has been working for me for more than two days now:
the problem seems to be in the download manager included in the new android software so what you simply have to do is to disable this application whenever you're not using it.. you can do so in the settings>> applications manager>> view ALL>> select DOWNLOAD MANAGER and DISABLE..
of course this will stop the play store from functionning and will stop any automatic updates but will prevent the phone sudden death...
All you have to do when you want to download any new apps or update existing ones is to enable the download manager and i suggest before doing that to clear the RAM memory and try to be gentle and patient with the phone...
Just keep working like that till ANDROID finds a solution in the next update and your phone will be fine.. in the end its better than killing the machine with every freeze.
Remember to be patient and work slowly when the download manager is enabled
Reply if it worked for you

My first post here. Thanks for this tip. My phone was freezing every 3 minutes and so I did what you suggested after all other suggestions (except rooting - as I was worried I might brick the phone if it froze while rooting) didn't work. Anyway, just a few seconds after I hit "DISABLE", my phone froze! So I thought it's probably not working, but since the reboot, it hasn't crashed. Thanks!:good:

the same thing is happening to me and i have no clue why its happening it just like 3-4days ago but i have installed only clash of clans and clash royale in my phone. he most interesting thing is that all your phone feature will work but the screen will not for almost 20-30mins then it will recover on its own. all the call features are working well but no response from phone. my conclusion is this phone is totally a mess and i dont even know how i managed t use this device for 4years! it got super laggy after 6-7 months of use. Whatever i went to the service centre and they told that i need to change the motherboard of my s3 costing 130$.
As the title says, my games are closing itself after some time. This is happening for about 4 months now. I tried flashing few different ROMs (I did hard-reset each time, completely wiping internal storage), and tried flashing few different kernels, but the problem still appears. It's not issue with RAM because I'm monitoring RAM when it happens, it always has ~100MB free.
I'm currently running Resurrection Remix LP v5.5.9 ROM with ArchiKernel v3.0.31. I don't know anymore what may cause the problem, I tried everything to fix it, but it still appears. Problem wasn't appearing before, but now it is in almost every game. Every other app or while outside the games, everything works smoothly like fresh factory reset was performed. I don't have much apps running in background and I don't run any optimisation apps (like RAM cleaner or app killer in background). Thanks in advance!

Classic Oom behaviour. Even though you think it isnt ram related you'll probably find oom errors in logcat.
S3 i9300 doesn't cope with any os higher than jellybean. Hence why samsung never issued one.
If you encounter these issues on a jellybean rom then the rom is rubbish.
