Samsung :: SPH-a900 (aka MM-A900) Powers Off Or Reboots Randomly?
Aug 5, 2011
I have a samsung SPH-A900 fliphone (later known as the MM-a900) on the Sprint network. Randomly the phone will power itself off (with or without the animation) or will completely reboot. Usually when charging it powers off and when not plugged it it reboots (but sometimes it just powers off when it's being used) Problem seems to be worse at home (7/7 bar reception) than on the road (2-4 bar reception)
I've tried 3 different batteries (2 aftermarked extended and 1 OEM) but it still happens. Phone was master-reset and re-OTA-programmed with no change from either.

I was just wondering if the Ace used the same datacable as the rest of the samsung family (I have a cable for my Sph-a900) or if I will need to buy a new one? Also if the data-cable is the same, is the charger the same?

I have had my phone for a few months now and continuously have issues with it powering itself down. It happens when i place a call, when I open an app, while I am in the middle of a phone call, placing a text message, taking a picture, etc. There are also times when the phone will not let me power it back on unless I remove the battery.

My new n900 (updated with the latest firmware) powers off / shuts down randomly when running on battery power. I have to use the power button to turn it on again and wait for it to boot, showing the hand animation/boot screen. I can't locate the reason for this, is it hardware/software or purely battery related. It doesn't seem to happen when plugged in into the charger.

Since about a week or so i noticed that every morning my Samsung L700 is turned off and i have no idea how and why that happens. Apart from that it is working normally, i.e. no weird bugs or anything. Is there a setting somewhere that i fail to find which shuts it down at a specific time? I know some phones have such function..... but can't find it in the menu.

My saga had low battery last night and died now I have charged it but It cycles on & off alone. If it's on long enough to try to make a call, It will shut down when I try to place a call. I have tried a soft reset but just added a bunch of contacts and trying to avoid a hard reset. I had a different Saga and the same thing happened once but I think the soft reset helped?

My 808 reboots itself randomly and without any user input. This happens every now and then. Sometimes goes a couple of days without problem, sometimes it restarts couple of times a day. This mornig, for example, I was using Maps and Public Transport apps to find my way to work. When I got to office, I put the phone avay for a few minutes and during that time it had restared itself, while being in my pocket and screen lock on. All I managed to see was the white dot animation, which is shown at early stages of the startup, followed by home screen icons loading one by one.Device had and still has no third party apps or background services running. In fact, only apps I had used recently were offical release versions made by Nokia and downloaded from Nokia Store.Nokia should really get their act together and improve software quality of the both firmware and utilites running on top of it.

Ok so basically, I have owned this phone since new, it's never been Jailbroken and the only "modification" that has ever been done is I've had the back glass replaced with a custom one I had made up.
The last 3 months or so, the phone during standard use tends to just reboot, the screen goes black, I get the little spinny wheel then it will either turn back onto the lock screen and behave, or it will continually do this.
I've also noticed that if it does automatically go back to the lock screen, some apps do not re-open, even after they have been closed properly from the home bar, they open then just close almost instantly which forces me to reboot the phone.
The worst case scenario is I have to do a full reboot - hold down home and power buttons till the screen goes black, then turn it back on, this can take upto 10 minutes sometimes which in my experiance is rather long..
Info:
iPhone 4, iOS 5.1, 32GB Custom Ed Hardy back glass

The phone reboots on few occasions at random While in the middle of conversation, Access internet/data through mobile service provider, Present in an area with very low signal strength. I changes the sim card twice with different service providers but the issue is not resolved. None of the sim cards I used are marked with N5 or N3 or such tech details.

Tried a few searches, but didn't find anything specific to the subject.Received my Lumia 920 last night, and since then it has either hung or rebooted randomly over a dozen times. It seems to happen mostly when navigating through screens or accessing apps. It will sit and stream music from the Nokia Music service fine... I have to perform a reset to recover the phone when it hangs.

I am on my 2nd blackberry 9700 bold on tmboile and have the same issue where it randomly reboots during the day. I don't have any third party apps and have wiped and reinstalled operating system and tried reinstalling the bbm messenger. I primarily use the blackberry group chat on bbm messenger during the day for the phone and am not sure if thats causing the issue because other members of the bbm group chat are not having any issues. The network is 3G for tmobile in chicago, so I doubt if coverage is issue.

I got my Bold 9790 and update it from 7 to 7.1 as soon as I got it.Since the beginning, I had been having random reboots over and over without any clear reason. It happens suddenly while texting, using BBM or WhatsApp and sometimes after a phone call, it even reboots when I am not using it at all (during the night when I'm asleep).

My Z3+ randomly reboots multiple times/day(30+). I've tried restoring with PC Companion, hard reset, factory reset, safe mode, everything. I tried running diagnostics but it's a crapshoot. Sometimes I will get a neverending loading loop and sometimes I'll get a error message, "Unfortunately Diagnostics has stopped." and then the phone will reboot iself.

I have just bought a Lumia 920 today, and now have the problems described in the thread subject... Every few minutes while idle, the phone will power down and immediately power up again. This does render the phone useless to me.. When trying to shut it down to remove the SIM card I noticed I cannot even shut it off. It would instantly turn itself back on again.
Did anyone else notice this kind of behaviour from their Lumia 920 (or maybe other phones as well)? I was really looking forward to this device and this really ruins it for me

My blackberry bold 9900 randomly reboots and I cannot seem to determine a root cause. The only applications that I have installed outside of the factory installed are iHeart Radio and Google Maps.

I've had xyboard 10.1 since Christmas and I absolutely love it but I am starting to get a lot of random reboots, at first it was just when I was doing a lot of tasks all at once but now even mundane tasks like just running the browser will cause it to freeze for a minute then just randomly reboot?

New to the forums and looking for some opinions regarding my SGS2. recently updated to the latest O2 firmware (2.3.5) and ever since my phone has been very unstable. It reboots at random (has done so at least twice today just sitting on my desk doing nothing!) and I also have issues when plugged in via usb (loses connection whilst copying music over, can't expand storage, etc). Just wondering if anybody else has had similar issues with O2 Firmware, or if that's just a coincidence and I actually have a faulty handset??

My phone wont stay off, i turn it off but it reboots automatically, also the car mode keeps activating randomly/randomly thinks it is charging and connected to a pc.
I updated it to the latest firmware via kies as well. Edit: Phone is not rooted and alarm clock plus is also another app that randomly starts.

My phone for reasons best known to itself infrequently if not rarely reboots and then plays a loud piece of music (not one I have downloaded!) and I cannot seem to mute it or turn it off until its run it's 30 second course. This may not sound a long time but it is when you are in a meeting of quiet place and other than removing the battery, which would defeat the whole point I cannot find out how to a) silence it, b) turn it off for future reboots or c) why my phone feels the need to restart on a regular basis.
