Thanks. Anyway to find out which app may be causing the reboot?
I do not think I have installed apps that may cause reboot. Also, my hard drive is only occupied 1/3 of the 64 GB so not sure that space is also an issue.

Hi All,
Thank you for your help. The issue is resolved after I removed some applications which were proprietary to my previous Android phone.

Hi,
Can you please share the steps that you followed to my email id - [email protected] as i'm facing the same issue after upgrade to android Oreo.
Thanks,
Chandra.
It is mostly because of an update that is just not working well with your phone. Although you can try and delete the apps that can cause the issue wit compatibility, it is hard to tell which one is doing that. Best solution here is to backup your data and reset the phone. It worked for me.
me too facing the same issue
Please help me out with this My lenovo k8 note also restarts automatically 5-6 times in a day. I also reached to service center, they update the software, but it doesn't help.
I am not installed any heavy app or any suspicious app. Also memory is free of space out of 56GB 45 GB of space is free. Please help.
[email protected]
I have also been facing the same problem since I updated software as it asked for lately available software. But my phone restarts several times when its screen light is off. How can I get rid off it? plz suggest.

1) What apps were these? Could you please help me out? Apps are crashing all over the place and I've just got spotify, amazon music and whatsapp installed as "extra".
2) I've given the phone THRICE to the service centre to no avail.

Restarting is not because or Orea update but due to over heating of CPU
The problem of restarting is not with Oreo update. Its an hardware issue with the motherboard. It just happened that the problem surfaced to all K8 note users at the same time when the Oreo update was released. The issue is with the Media Tek X23 SOC used inside the phone which over heats. Due to continuous heating and after using the phone for about 15 to 16 months the SOCs thermal sensors fail and due to that the phone freezes and goes into boot loop. The heating is mainly because of the Mali T880 MP4 GPU inside this Media Tek X23. You can confirm this and actually use your phone temporarily by cooling it down. The method i used is by putting your phone inside refrigerator for 10 mins and then turn it ON. You will be surprised that it boots into home screen and you can actually use the phone for some time. It doesn't matter which operating system you have currently installed, works both on Android Oreo & Nougat. After keeping it inside the refrigerator for 10 mins take it out and keep the phone on an Ice pack so that it continuous to stays cool even after been taken from the refirgerator. Install app CPUz and go to thermals, there you will see that all the sensors are OFF and there would be no readings. Surprisingly the phone still functions absolutely like normal till you have kept it on the ice pack and you can even watch Youtube or play games. The moment you take it away from the ice pack it will freeze and restart within a minute.

SOLVED SOLVED SOLVED - Restarting/Boot Loop issue, Bake the Motherboard in an Oven
Go to this link and Page 45 there i have posted the same solution with Photos as i couldn't attach then over herehttps://forums.lenovo.com/t5/K8-XT1902-Smartphones/Lenovo-K8-Note-Auto-Restart-issue-Boot-Loop/m-p/4514161#M31208
SOLVED SOLVED SOLVED
SUCCESS SUCCESS SUCCESS
IT IS 100% WORKING NOW, THE PROBLEM OF RESTARTING AND BOOT LOOP HAS GONE COMPLETELY!
To all of my fellow Lenovo K8 note users if you are facing with the problem of boot loop, freezing and constant restarting of your phone then its the problem with the motherboard and not the Oreo update. Yesterday i was able to used the phone temporarily by cooling it in the refrigerator that gave me the hint that there is some loose connection or dry solder due to which the phone was not working. Mainly this loose connection must have happened due to over heating of Media Tek X23 CPU.
So i decided to do the rebalding soldering of the motherboard. Now the right way to do it is using the Hot Air Station, but if you dont have it then you can even bake the motherboard in oven. Follow the steps below
1) Carefully open the back and disconnecte the flex cables for Battery, volume button, LCD and Daughter USB charge boards (Watch some Youtube Videos Online)
2) Unscrew the Motherboard and take it out from the casing.
3) Remove the metal sheilds covering the CPU, there will be 4 sheilds but only 2 of them are removable, the other 2 are soldered to the motherboard so dont try to remove it if you dont have Hot Air Station.
4) Heat the IC underneath the shields with Hot Air Station, If you dont have Hot Air station then put the mother board on a ceramic or non conductive plate and then place it inside the Oven for Baking. !!!! WARNING DO NOTMICROWAVE IT !!!! You need to use the setting of your Oven similar to what you would use for Bakin breads.
5) The Oven should be Pre heated to 230 Celcuis before you put the motherboard.
6) Set the timer to 10 to 15 minutes and let it bake
7) Once the baking time is over, then let the Motherboard cool inside the oven untill is cool to touch.
8) Put Heat sink compound on top of the IC/CPU and Metal Sheild plates
9) Reassemble everything and test if it works.
10) Dont forget to give my reply a like if it works for you, All the Best!!!
I have attached some photos of the motherboard with some instructions

My z1c has an accelerometer that is broken. This means auto rotation doesn't work for example. Sometimes i can get it working by calibration and/or restart, but after a while the sensor will be off again. I'm testing with the app "android sensor". At the moment the sensor is stuck as if I'm holding my phone horizontally.
I'm running latest software, 14.3.A.0.757
Since i bought it while travelling in Thailand (not the smartest, but my old phone broke, so what to do..), I'm trying to see if anyone here has experience with this, before contacting Sony.
As far as my searches go, i have not been able to locate this as a known problem.
My accelerometer works perfect i have my phone since sunday. Maybe you should perform.a factory reset if that doesnt help its defenetly hardware issue.

I got the same problem. Bought it about 9 months ago in Uk. Since few months im on .108. I don't think that firmware is a problem coz it starts about 2 weeks ago. Accelelometer stop working every now and then. Reboot helps but not for long. Gonna contact o2 as still have warranty.
guys i have the same problem with my z1
seems like some software problem ..
because if the hardware is broken it would not start working after restarting
did any of you , opened your phone for replacing or something?
I had this problem too. All sensors would stop responding and give no readings in the service tests. A reboot would fix it for a couple days but the issue would always return. At the time I was running a 108 rom that I had downloaded from this forum, Russian I believe. Recently PC companion told me I had an update but the version was also 108. I did the update without wiping data and I haven't had the problem with the sensors for about 3 weeks.
Still not sure what caused it, it didn't start with my first loading of 108, but some time after that. My best guess is that some app hosed something up and a software update fixed it. Hope it doesn't come back.

Same here. I believe that the problem started when I changed my screensaver to one of the animated backgrounds with planets on it. On a first run it would work and rotate the planet render in the background when I tilted the phone. The next day it stopped working. I mean, the screensaver was on, but it would no detect orientation from the gryroscope. The screen also stopped autorotating when playing YouTube videos from the app, the compass app wasn't working and so on. I installed a few small sensor monitoring applications and all of the gave me no readings for the accelerometer or gyroscope sensors. Some other sensors were disabled, such as proximity, illumination level detect and so on. I was afraid that the accelerometer could be broken from humidity, pressure or a small drop that happened, but these small incidents could not explain the problem by their own (specially since the Z1c is thoroughly tested against all of these). I thought of maybe a faulty motherboard construction or whatever and starting considering the possibility of taking it back to the store for the guarantee, but before that I googled and came along this site and a couple others.
I fiddled a bit with Android menu config. settings but to no avail. I completely discarded the factory reset advice (that's SO crazy!).
When I rebooted the phone (no reset, just a regular off and on again process) all sensor readings were back on. I still didn't have the chance to check whether the problem might come back in a few days or not.
The cause may or may not be on the planets screensaver app. I also used Google Earth, YouTube and a few other apps the day sensors stopped working, but none of these gave problems in the past.
Fingers crossed for this issue not reappearing.
Hello everybody on my Z1 accelerometer compass gyroscope and light sensor does not work! any help please?
Yesterday I've had the same trouble, screen orientation stopped working. Apps using the acceleration sensor stopped working (Google Sky i.e.)
First I did a factory reset without any change, still no function. As I still have warranty, I wanted to prepare the phone to send it to Sony for repair. So I switched the phone off, removed SIM and SD (what I haven't done before) and switched it on again. Then I did a factory reset once again and here we go the sensor went back to work.
Probably the factory reset is "deeper" if there's no SIM and SD card in the phone? Who knows.
A few days ago I have ordered and then replaced the LCD of my Zenfone 2. Sending it back to repair the display was as expensive as buying a new phone, so I decided to take the risk. I followed the instructions I found on the internet and I succeded. Both touch and display work after replacement, and all other components work too, except for camera functions. Now when I open any camera app (Google Camera, Zenfone Pixelmaster camera and so on) I get the infamous "camera failed to launch, please reboot your device". After cleaning up both application cache and system cache (I have even tried flashing an older firmware version) I decided to check both the flat cables connecting the front camera and rear camera to the phone's motherboard, with no success.
Any clue about how to proceed ?
Any chance that trying a different ROM (such as Cyanogen) might fix my problem ?
I have read that many users are experiencing that nefarious camera message, however I haven't found any effective solution so far, and without a clue I can't figure out if one of the two cameras is broken or damaged...
Suggestions ?
Thanks in advance and have a nice day

UPDATE 1: installed CM 12.1 following tutorial. Everything working except for camera. Tried both Google stock camera app and A Better Camera (free trial). Google stock says "cannot connect to camera" A Better camera shows a black background and does nothing else...
UPDATE 2
I just received a spare Zenfone 2 from another guy that, after breaking the screen, decided to sell it for spare parts instead of repairing it.
I have turned it on as soon as it arrived via mail and..guess what ? Camera issue is there too!
I have tried the following:
1) swap both camera modules and motherboard to my Zenfone 2
2) vice versa (put my camera modules on the newly received motherboard)
3) hard reset and reload all system images on both phones.
Issue is still unsolved. I'm starting to think that the camera problem is a "sort of anti tampering" implemented by Asus.
As soon as you unscrew the phone, something breaks - or at least detects the tampering - blocking the camera.
There's no other way to explain...
Any suggestion ? Did anyone effectively solved the problem ?
Please, don't leave me alone in this thread..

ZENFONE 2: camera failed to launch
Dear Azrahel
My Zenfone 2 phone exactly encountered the same problem, probably because of a software update/installation and so on. I simply rebooted the phone into the SAFE MODE (simply long press the power button then LONG TAP the shutdown then confirm the reboot into the safe mode). In the safe mode I found that the camera works normally. Then I simply rebooted the phone (in order to enter the normal environment) and now the camera works! I hope that you can fix the bug by this simple process.
Did you find a solution for this? I'm encountering the same issue after I replaced the display. The connectors seem to be in well. Maybe I broke something small internally without even knowing and that causes both cameras not to function.

Hey guys,
I have a weired camera problem and I coudn't find anyway to fix it
The camera was working perfectly fine until one day It started being unresponsive sometimes and now I got to the point where it rarely responds!!!
When I open the camera sometimes it just shows black screen and I'm unable to do anything then after about 3 secs phone reboots and sometimes the camera app launches but the viewfinder is just black and sometimes it simply fc's!!!
I tried several camera apps (manul camera....) but in vain!
My first attempt to fix this was deleting data and cache for camera app! then I made a factory reset then I tried updating to android N DP4 and then I rolled back and in vain!!!
Once the camera srops working it will not work again until I reboot the phone and after I reboot it the camera will work for about 5 minutes to 1 hour then the problem starts showing!!!
Hope yo Guys can help me solve the issue I really like the phone and I don't wanna lose it!
Thx in advance!
Sounds like a hardware issue to me. I would send it in for warranty or repairs if possible.
Did you managed to get it fixed? I have the exact same issue. I think it first started happening after the latest security updates. I hope it's not hardware related, this phone just came back from lg repairs for faulty digitizer.
i got the same problem. i just try to install the final version of android 7.0 and hope the problem won't show again...
i'm anyway quite sure it's not a hardware problem, cause when the camera works it works great and shoots perfect photos and videos...i think it's the last security pack update which causes these problems, and maybe the solution will be the new security pack update, of september
I had the same issue, and I simply couldn't fix it by any means. It just started to happen after 3 months of use, and came out of nowhere.
I had to return it, luckily it was amazon......
Really weird.
My rear camera suddenly stopped working. My phone didn't get any hurt in nowhere, just suddenly it stopped working. I was takin photos since 10 minutes before, I locked the phone and I noticed that Torch tile disappeared. I thought it was a bug and I didn't care anymore. The day before I noticed that even rear camera stopped working, I was trying to take a photo but the "change camera" (from front to rear) disappeared in every camera app I was using, camera apps opened by default with front camera opened. I tried to reflash ROM thinking that it was a ROM problem (even if I was using the same rom since months ago and I've never had any kind of problem), no results. Reflashing everything starting from stock firmware, no results. As a last hope, I tried to replace the rear camera by buying a new one, but the problem it's still here. Could someone that experienced the same problem, tell me where the problem could be? Or maybe some possible fixes, every kind of help is appreciated. Thanks.
Same
I have the exact same problem. After wiping the cache the rear camera is recognised and I am able to take a picture with it (which is not saved into gallery) but about 5 minutes later the option to switch to rear camera has gone and all camera apps (including social media such as snapchat) is stuck on front camera. This leads me to think it's not a hardware problem but rather that of software with which I am running cm13 nightlies that I have updated every day for the past week in the hope it will be patched.
I have this exact same problem on my d855 too..!
Sooooo frustrating, I've been looking everywhere for a fix, tried full factory reset the other day (I'm running full regular stock with no root or anything), and sadly that didn't work either... I'm glad to read someone has tried changing the camera hardware, cos that was I step I've considered taking, but I now know would be a waste of time and money...
But still, the problem persists..!

I don't think that's a software problem simply for one reason: I'm on the same rom and kernel since months and camera worked fine. It stopped working suddenly with no reason.

Yeah now you made me understand why the camera worked for some minutes. I'll try clearing cache after installing new camera module. I'll report the result. Thanks anyway.
Edit: It's not working. At first boot, systemUI doesn't load well, when I reboot everything works fine but rear camera isn't working. Maybe late I'll try with phone's camera. Now I'm using the new one bought some days ago.
same here!!!!! I'm using LOS13.1 on my d855 and i can't fix it... any idea?
What OS are you guys running? Is everyone experiencing the issue on Cm13?
Also try cleaning the camera connections really well.
I have same problem. Although i expirienced it first time on Lineage OS 14.1. Now 30B, but it still not working. I was listening to music through external speakers, and suddenly it stopped working. Music app was "playing" but i couldnt hear anything and when i exit the app my phone just stops working and starts being laggy as hell. Later that day i found out my camera is not working. I tried reattaching cam connector but it did not work...idk if i should order a new camera or it might be a software fix or something
same problem
happened to me after upgrading to 6.0 , downgraded back to 5 with no luck , even opened my phone and released and reconnected the 3 cables inside with no luck at all . don't know what to do
It's "good" to see other people with the same problem as me.
I replaced the camera and it still won't work.
I'm afraid that it might the problem with our motherboard...How can software block our camera even tho all of us fully reinstalled ROMs/Modems etc? It would be awesome if dev would see this and tell us what is the actual cause of this
If you reinstalled the entire OS using a TOT method, no files are left behind. This is more likely a hardware issue.
The Camera module is extremely close to the problematic hot chip on the G3 so it's not impossible something got messed up.
I have a d852 in Canada that doesn't get hot and I'm having this problem too. Going to order a new camera since I know this is a hardware issue. Hopefully fixed the issue. Not cool having no rear camera or flashlight
It's impossible Every G3 gets hot...you either are not heavy user or idk...but every G3 that i've held had the issue of overheating at some point...and indeed it can ruin everything...imagine 120C on your processor...that kills everything around it...idk if my processor got that hot as i've seen in some cases it did on internet, but it did go up to 90ish...and that is too damn hot
FIX ISSUE be Done
Hi all .
Problem method for repair
Issue is easy buy new rear camera D855 or this same conector D820/D821/Nexus5 is this same and all works fine I'm tested on my D855 International

Hi I have recently bought a second hand redmi note 8 pro to use with a drone I have also recently purchased.
everything has been working fine. Until last night 21/07/21 I had a notification of the new miui 12.5 update. which I left to do its thing. The issue is the screen does not respond to touch. it appears to boot up ok gets to the screen shown. I have had it on fastboot screen and also wiped all data (can't seem to get mi assistance to work.)
Has anyone else had the update/ issue?
How would you recommend proceeding.
I have the same problem (Redmi Note 8 Pro Global - MI firmware). After updating from 12.0.8, the touchscreen stopped working.
I had to roll back through the fastboot. I also tried to flash version 12.5.1.0 via fastboot - the problem persists.
The phone had a replacement display module, but with an original one.
There is an idea to try to flash it with a version for Indonesia or China, but so far I have not tested it.
Issue with SIM selection for calling on MIUI 12.5 Global - Redmi Note 8 Pro
Anyone experiencing this bug with default SIM for call?
The Google Dialer will ask for which SIM to call on reboot even tho I already set it as SIM1 or SIM2 in the Settings.
The workaround is manually reselecting the SIM but only effective till next reboot.
Same exclusive Xiaomi Update Fail Forget about help or information from the official Support.
Connect a mouse with a USB-C to USB Adapter and backup your personal data.
I have exact same issue on this update. I also replaced the screen some time ago. I belive it's android 11 problem, because CFWs like PE doesn't work too. ROMs with Android 10 also seems weird to me, because digitizer keeps "jumping" and clicking random places. Android 9 - all works perfectly fine. I am going to find out which partition is used to use touchscreen and check if it's possible to flash it over PE ROM to solve the problems.
I have some problems after updating to MIUI 12.5.1:
1. Have to repeat the procedure twice for uploading any picture from gallery to anywhere on Internet. It doesn't work in first attempt.
2. Fingerprint sensor shows many errors off & on. 3-4 attempts to open the phone. Tried re-registering my fingers.
3. Option of Completely Hide Notch gone
4. While playing Facebook videos, sound continues, video stops.
Too annoying these bugs are.

4. While playing Facebook videos, sound continues, video stops.
Too annoying these bugs are.

5. Battery drain ("...even on miui 12.5 battery drain too much high...")

I have exact same issue on this update. I also replaced the screen some time ago. I belive it's android 11 problem, because CFWs like PE doesn't work too. ROMs with Android 10 also seems weird to me, because digitizer keeps "jumping" and clicking random places. Android 9 - all works perfectly fine. I am going to find out which partition is used to use touchscreen and check if it's possible to flash it over PE ROM to solve the problems.

Yes, the great manufacturer has kept its information behind the mountain. I have just found a contribution to this in the mi community.
It only briefly mentions that repairs should be made with an official display. I also do not understand why Xiaomi makes such a secret of it and does not give the reasons. Link
I have installed the Global 12.0.5 Stable QGGEUXM and I am also aware of these display anomalies.
Do you have any results in the project?

I've tested all partitions but any of them seems to be changing display driver. So sorry, no luck there, I think we're stuck with android 9. It looks like it is hard-coded into firmware.

I noticed a break in a layer of the display within 14 days of use. There was no heavy use or pressure on the display. Xiaomi - K.O.
How to bring back the option of "Completely Hide the Notch" in MIUI 12.5.1?
I have just realised I didn't update. I was having lots of trouble fixing this. I think my reply from xiaomi was wait for the next update this might fix it.
Thank you to Boo-Kah-Kee, I never knew you could plug a mouse in.
anyway I eventually got it back to the prievious rom by following this Video.
No more updates it works fine.
