Random Reboots

[james robinson]

I am a two week old proud owner of a GN8.0. I have a problem though. Recently, my GN8.0 has been experiencing some random reboots. I thought it might be a rouge app so I did a factory reset. To no avail!!! It's still doing the same thing. Did I buy a lemon?

For a couple of nights in a row, I've noticed that as I go to sleep (and fire up tune in radio) my device locks up and requires a hard shutdown and restart.

I've pulled logs but haven't looked at them yet, and have an older backup of the app I can restore. I don't remember whether this correlates with a Tune In update from the last few days but will be restoring an older version to see if it helps.

Mine does the same thing. Only once or twice a week and I have this thing loaded with apps (I think I have 500mb left of internal). If it did it more than that I'd be aggravated but I can deal with a once a week freeze up. I'm stock rooted with no mods other than root also.

I wouldnt call that loaded with apps. I have 26gb of apps on mine but I use foldermount to transfer the data to my microSD card. I try and keep at least 1.5gb of internal memory free as worry about stability issues if it gets reduced. I assume that apps need free space for cache etc and try to keep as much free as possible.
Only issues i've had is when im playing a game and have forgotten to take my tablet out of power saving mode. Im running my CPU under volted and underclocked.
If freeing up space on your internal storage isnt fixing your stability issues then you may have other issues. im pushing my tablet a little harder and having no problems with it.

Yeah. I did the internal - external swap on my note 2 but had issues (forget what they were but they were annoying), so I went back to normal internal and external. I also didn't like the idea that once you did the swap you were kinda stuck with it unless you wanted to redo a bunch of stuff if something were to happen to the SD. I have a class 10 64g SD card now with 57g available. Seems like a waste of space (I keep all my music on Google music) just sitting in this tablet. Maybe I'll take the internal/external swap for a spin again and see if the bugs have been worked out. OR...... Maybe Key lime Pie will bring apps 2 SD back :silly:

Just to clarify. l haven't swapped my internal and external. l just move my app data files to external via Folder Mount. That way l can still remove the micro SD if I so wish
