Default Randoom reboot

I' ve got randoom reboot with my One S. Doesn't matter if it lays anywhere and is in standby or i work with it. Without any sign it reboots... Sometimes after an half hour , sometimes after hours. Somebody gots an idea why? Oh forget to say, it's not customized or rooted

No this is definetely not normal. I would recommend to make use of your warranty cause this could be related to an hardware issue

Same here in Spain with an Orange HTC One S. Yesterday my phone rebooted three times and it was just laying next on my desk. Another problem is sometimes it doesn't connect to GSM network for a minute or two. It is also chipping a litlle bit on the upper edge. I am thinking of returning it.

Exactly the same here for me in the UK. New one s. Reboots since day 1. Does it anywhere from 2-5 times a day even when sat idle.

Nooooooooooooo I switched from a Motorola Defy+ to a OneS to get away from that particular problem which seemed to be unsolvable. Just about only things you could try is another sim card (unlikely), factory reset or probably the best option ..... take it back asap.

Thankfully I don't have the problem >touches wood<

my h3g signal go and come sometimes, but i think it depends by my cutting sim card to transform in micro sim.

I also cut my sim card to make it into a micro sim. I new this was possible but thought this might be a bad idea but when I spoke to vodafone about getting a new sim, they said 'bring it in and we'll cut it down for you'. I thought I might as well do it myself.

I just had a thought. How many of you with the rebooting problem have their phones in cases? Mine is. Now that you can't remove the battery to reset they've built that functionality into the power off button. Hold down to reset. I don't think it's that sensitive, but it just got me to thinking, is the case putting some minor pressure on that button to reset the phone? I just tried it manually, and it replicates the reboot... Going to try leaving mine out of the case for a while. Should only take a day to find out. Having said that, it does it sat on the desk on charge without having been touched.

I agree. Anyone using a TPU gel case that has the power button covered up might get this problem. I have cut a hole in the case over the power button for exactly this reason. Holding down the power button on the phone for ~10 secs replicates a battery pull.

Looking now to find a gel case that already has a hole there as mine looks a little untidy now.
