Cyclic reboot of Samsung smartphone: causes and solution to the problem. Samsung Galaxy reboots on its own Samsung s3 reboots

A smartphone or tablet may reboot on its own for several reasons. Check the recommendations for each one in turn.

One-time software glitch

Don't worry if your device reboots rarely - once every week or two.

Firstly, this may be due to by accidental pressing"Power" buttons. If you keep it pressed for a few seconds, the device
will reboot.

Secondly, over time, the battery wears out and can produce unstable voltage, especially under heavy loads. This is a natural process and will simply need to be replaced in the future.

UBANK application

Some devices (Galaxy A8/A8+, S8/S8+) experienced problems with the pre-installed UBANK application. If you have such an application on your device, disable it.

If the device stops rebooting on its own, the problem is in the application. Try enabling it later if you need it.

If your device keeps rebooting after disabling UBANK or you don't have such an app, move on to the next recommendation.

If your device reboots once a week at a specific time, the Auto Reboot feature may be enabled. Check it out: Menu - Settings - General settings- Reset - Automatic reboot must be turned off.

If automatic reboot was turned off or this did not help, move on to the next recommendation.

Impact of installed applications

The device may restart due to applications that were installed after purchase. One of the installed applications freezes and stops the operating system. To reset this “error” the device reboots.

Check if they affect installed applications to operate the device by loading the device into safe mode. In this mode, all downloaded applications are disabled and only those that were installed at the factory work.

If the device works fine in Safe Mode, some downloaded app is to blame. Unfortunately, there is no way to determine which one exactly, so we recommend deleting one at a time, starting with the last installed or updated one. After uninstalling the application, monitor the device's operation. If the problem goes away, the problem was with the uninstalled application. If it doesn’t disappear, it wasn’t his fault, delete the following.

If your device still restarts in Safe Mode, move on to the next recommendation.


In this article we will try to give an extended answer to why a Samsung phone reboots itself during a conversation, typing, photography, playing a game or listening to music.

Solving most problems will require special skills, professional repair equipment and spare parts. Therefore, in such situations, we recommend that you seek help from service center In your city.

Reasons why a Samsung phone reboots on its own

1. Software glitch

Samsung phones run on Android OS or Windows Phone(some models). However, it is with Android versions that people most often encounter reboot problems during operation.

If you find that after a recent kernel update (automatic or manual), problems with self-rebooting began to appear, then you should roll back the firmware to the previous version. You can do this yourself (there are plenty of instructions on the Internet on how to flash a phone), or you can turn to a professional for help.

Previous official firmware can always be found on the Samsung website in the corresponding section http://samsung-updates.com/device/.

After the manufacturer releases the next firmware version, you can update, because... The bugs will surely be fixed after numerous complaints from users all over the world.

2. Problems with the battery or charging connector

This reason is the most common. To fix it, you may need the professional skills of repairmen at service centers.

First you should check the battery for visible physical damage(swollen, oxidation of contacts).

Next, we look to see if there is any play between the contacts of the battery and the phone. The fact is that during a conversation, typing a message or playing a game, the phone shakes, which can lead to a slight discrepancy at the point of contact and entails the phone turning off with the possibility of rebooting itself.

It is not uncommon for the charging connector to become clogged or damaged as a result of physical impact, which leads to short circuit and causes the phone to malfunction.

3. Due to moisture getting under the body of the Samsung phone

After contact with liquid, various elements of the phone could fail, which led to a spontaneous reboot of your Samsung.

In this case, diagnostics using professional repair equipment is necessary, because The effects of moisture can manifest themselves in different ways. This is the most difficult reason for the manifestation of a particular breakdown in any gadget to diagnose.

3. Memory full

For the Android or Windows Phone OS to work properly on your Samsung phone, space is required not only physical memory(internal phone), but also RAM.

Insufficient memory can lead to a crash of the gadget followed by a reboot in an attempt to boot normally.

Install the Smart Manager application, where you can see how much physical and virtual (RAM) memory is free. You can clean/enlarge/release it right away.

4. Problems with installed applications

Everyone knows that in Google Play(Android application repository) there is practically no moderation. All this leads to the appearance of unstable versions of applications, which are often infected with viruses.

Some applications may simply not be compatible with your phone model or firmware version. You install such an application, launch it, it seems to work, but it begins to overload your phone’s memory or send incorrect signals to the OS. As a result, the phone crashes.

Therefore, if you find that your Samsung phone reboots itself after installing some application or set of applications, try removing them and checking the functionality of the gadget.

Other reasons for Samsung phones to reboot on their own

In fact, there can be many reasons. We have listed the most common ones.

Often, in order to identify exactly what affects an arbitrary reboot, a complete diagnosis of the phone is required.

In our workshop you will be provided with qualified assistance: they will conduct a comprehensive diagnosis that will determine the exact cause of the problem, and will perform a professional repair of your Samsung phone. Contact us and you will forget about any malfunction of your mobile device.

Samsung keeps rebooting

Despite the fact that Samsung Galaxy is the top model of the global brand, it, like many smartphones, can fail and begin to reboot constantly. Such a breakdown may be caused by a malfunction of any program or operating system on which this phone runs.

Problems can also be caused by hardware failure, as a result of which the smartphone will constantly or periodically reboot.

note

This behavior of the Samsung Galaxy will cause the user a number of inconveniences, and in the worst case, will lead to complete loss of data on the mobile device and the inability to use the gadget for its intended purpose.

What to do if your Samsung phone keeps rebooting? Let's look at several reasons for this malfunction and try to find ways to eliminate it.

Reasons for rebooting and how to fix them

Many users, as well as more experienced service center specialists, identify several main reasons why the Samsung Galaxy constantly reboots:

  • broken power contacts or lithium-ion battery;
  • mechanical damage to the phone;
  • failure of the system board as a result of oxidation of contacts or conductive connections under the influence of moisture;
  • failure of the RAM module or processor;
  • incorrect operation of one or more applications;
  • core destruction.

We will try to independently identify several reasons for the phone’s malfunction and, if possible, fix the problem without resorting to the help of experts or a service center. First, you need to determine the nature of the malfunction, that is, what caused it.

All types of breakdowns can be divided into 2 types:

  • mechanical damage– occur if any of the phone parts fails;
  • software problems– caused by incorrect or incorrect operation of any system application or third party program on the phone.

note

If Samsung Galaxy constantly reboots in response to user actions (for example, pressing a finger on the screen sensor), it must be switched to safe operating mode. When launched in this way, the device is loaded only basic system applications.

All third party programs , set by the owner of the handset after activation of the device, in this mode will be forcibly disabled.

Safe mode

Activating Safe Mode on all Samsung Galaxy phones is done in the same way. As an example, let's look at how this is done on the Galaxy S6 Edge.

To enter safe mode on this device necessary:

  • Hold down the power button and select the “Turn off” option. Wait until the smartphone screen goes completely dark and does not show any action.
  • If the model of the problematic gadget includes a removable battery, then the most in a simple way To turn off the phone 100% will remove the lithium battery and leave it in that position for a few seconds.
  • Return the battery to its place and turn on the Samsung Galaxy phone.

It is important to know

At the time when the manufacturer’s logo appears on the screen, you need to hold down the bottom key of the volume carriage, that is, the “Volume -” button. If all actions were performed correctly, a corresponding message will appear on the screen, which will inform the owner that the phone is loaded in safe mode.

After the final download, you need to perform any actions with standard applications, for example:

  • open file manager;
  • view the amount of memory;
  • check settings;
  • downloadSystemUpdates();
  • use a standard Internet browser;
  • record a video, take some photos, etc.

If Samsung does not reboot when performing such actions, there is a very high probability that the incorrect operation was caused by third party applications, which do not belong to the official software. This method testing gives about 90% accurate identification of the cause of the breakdown. In other cases, the fault should be looked for in the mechanical or hardware part.

Machine breakdowns

If the device worked adequately in safe mode, but when switching to normal mode the situation resumed, the question remains what to do: the Samsung phone constantly reboots as before. You should start looking for mechanical damage from the removable parts of your mobile device. This may be a battery that has become deformed due to the destruction of an electrical element. By visual inspection, it is necessary to determine whether the thickness of the battery plate has increased, whether any foreign swellings, dents or cracks have appeared.

If you have a standard household voltmeter, it would be a good idea to check the internal capacity of the battery. This procedure should be performed after the battery is fully charged; as a result, there may be 2 results:

  • the sensor will show 4.0-4.2 V – the battery is in good condition;
  • the value will be equal to 3.7 V - the battery is discharged.

As a result, the reason for the Samsung phone to reboot lies in low or insufficient power. In this case, the battery should be replaced with a new one.

Another reason why your smartphone turns off or restarts may be a small gap between the case back cover and a battery.

note

If the phone turns off during a conversation, that is, when it is in a vertical position, this is most likely caused by loose contact between the battery and the electrical circuit.

You can check and fix this breakdown in a simple way: lay a thin layer of paper between the battery and the back cover.

What to do if your Samsung phone constantly reboots, but the battery and its contacts are in good condition? The reason for the reboot may be mechanical damage to the internal parts of the mobile device due to a strong impact on a hard surface. As a result of falling the phone, connecting or contact wires, thermal soldering or any other component may become detached. May also crack motherboard, to which all the main elements of the gadget are soldered.

Will be useful

In this case, it is not recommended to repair the phone yourself. It must be taken to a service center for a full diagnosis, since this procedure requires special equipment and extensive experience.

Samsung Galaxy software glitches

If a mechanical problem may need to be resolved by an experienced technician or service center, then
Software problems can be easily resolved at home.
The main task is to accurately determine the cause, namely the application due to which the system crash occurs.

There are 3 main causes of software-related failures:

  • software conflict between the application and the official one operating system Android;
  • incomplete or incompletely installed program update;
  • Virus applications (spam bots) or malicious software (Trojans);

Let's look at each situation in more detail.

Installed software conflict

If after, bypassing the Play Market, the user discovered that the phone started to reboot, then the problem of the malfunction lies precisely in this software.

Remove the conflicting program. You need to go to the section "Applications", find the problematic utility, and after opening the dialog box, click the button "Delete". Having completed this fairly simple algorithm, take into account the fact that program remnants may remain in the device’s RAM.

You can permanently eliminate the application through the standard service section "Recovery Mode":

If you for a long time If you own a Galaxy S3, then you might experience a strange “event” - the phone turns off and reboots for no apparent reason. Don't worry because you are not alone and Samsung is aware of such situations.

The message appeared on the Reddit website and currently there are more than 150 comments written by members of the XDA-Developers community discussing the topic of sudden death Galaxy S3.

A little over a month ago, a similar topic was even raised, which collected more than 60 pages of discussions and at the time of writing this article it was already known in detail when and why the Galaxy S3 could fall into clinical death. The user TurtleRecall was able to describe the problem more briefly.

At the time of his comment on the XDA forum, the discussion had already reached page 56 and users were constantly writing that their flagship had suddenly passed out. The device can work from 150 to 200 days and then only something like this can happen. If the user did not have time to get root rights or install custom firmware, Samsung could still replace the device under warranty.

There was an assumption that the NAND was damaged and that was why the problem occurred. The worrying thing is that Samsung has already replaced boards of the same vintage, which raises a big question about the general problem with smartphones released 6 months ago or so.

A similar thing suddenly happened with my friend’s smartphone, although he did not install custom firmware or even root rights. And I was always on the official firmware from Samsung, updating from the ICS version to Jelly Bean. Samsung does not officially admit that there is a problem, but after contacting the service center, we witnessed that we were not the first to have such a problem and recently there have been a lot of such calls to the Samsung call center.

It turns out that the board in the Galaxy S3 died for no reason and Samsung replaced them for free, although the replacement was again with old-style boards, and therefore the smartphone may die again in a few months, or even earlier.

This is not the first time we have reported this problem with a popular smartphone. Again we see that no device is perfect and regardless of the operating system on which the device runs, some problems still appear. However, this does not mean that this should happen with a smartphone.

Still, we don’t know the true extent of the problem, because there are no comments from Samsung on this issue. However, we believe that only a limited number of Galaxy S3 units are suffering from sudden death. Otherwise, we would have seen a more resonant discussion.

Although today is December 21, and maybe that’s why the Galaxy S3 began to die almost en masse? Is the end near? Joke.

Seriously, we look forward to your comments and opinions on this topic. Have you encountered this problem? If yes, how did the official Samsung service help you?
