I experience random restarts despite of the ROM I have flashed. I have tried JellyBeer ROM, PA ROM, Stunner ROM, Sweet ROM and many more with their respective default kernel. My stupid phone even restarts in CWM and trying to flash a new ROM.

What could be the issue? How can I get this fixed? :confused:

Random restarts are quite common with ROMs under development or if not flashed properly. Update the ROM to a stable version or re-flash the ROM wiping cache, factory reset and see. You can flash a stable ROM to get rid of the problem.
All wipes and reflash may solve your problem...
I always flash a stable version of the ROM with a full wipe. Even I format preload,cache,system, etc. Whatever ROM I flash it does not help.

But I simply can not understand what cause the restarts on my phone ?:confused:

No harm in just re-flashing a ROM. I face random restarts on the PAC currently, this is a common problem. Else try one of the stable 4.1.2 TW ROMs. Hope you don't face a restart then!
Yes. I'm using sweet ROM v9. I still get random starts here and there. :confused:

It might be a app you are using. Install catlog from play store and find the cause. You say it happens on all ROMs you flash. Is there any particular app you restore :rolleyes:

Can you please tell me how to use this app to pin point the issue? I have already installed it. :confused:

Facebook App has a good reputation? Would be new to me. Look at their app reviews and star(s) on Google play.
I mean like they are used by everyone plus I have been using it for a year now. Never had a problem. I always use the apps that I have been using for a long time. Nothing new

Option 1>>>Open Catlog and press record and minimize it has it will start the log process. Use your phone normally and see anything happens.
Option 2>>>I would suggest you one thing flash any ROM best choose CM base ROM and flash gapps and reboot. Don't sign in to google just cancel the process and add it later from settings. Live it stock without loading any apps and see if it reboots for you.
Option 3>>>Might be a faulty motherboard don't know. Was the case when you brought the phone in the first place?

Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it mate. I have clicked the thanks button :)

Once I got the phone it was working fine. I'm not sure about the power button too. I'm working on it to figure out whether it's the kernel or the ROM the power button.

You can try the following:

1. re-flash the samsung stock rom ....i would recommend you go with Official ICS Rom 4.0.4. Perform a clean data wipe, cache and dalvik cahe.
2. Do not use any other apps other than whats included in stock rom. Observe carefully for 2-3 days.
3. If all goes smooth, you can try installing well-known apps like facebook, whatsapp, etc etc

4. if you still have issue, i suggest you change your battery. Go for the official samsung battery only. Observe your phone's behavior.

Hope it helps you :)
