So there's no problem if my phone freezes and I take the battery out and put it back in again and the phone starts working ? Do I need to hard reset or anything ?

Can this happen if my phone memory is low ? I have 88 MB free.

And If I keep doing this will the phone eventually mess up ?

maybe low in memory, how many new apps do you have? if you dont need it delete, plus some apps can be move to sd card. now if your playing games, it needs more battery and memory. i normally delete my cache, turn off apps i dont need, turn off your gps,bluetooth, or even your data or internet if your games is not online. if keep rebooting your phone via removing the battery,sure it is not the proper way to to turn it off. but it will take many times before it affects the hardware, smartphone is like our laptop or pc. you can go to setting -- privacy---setting reset... not the the factory data reset...it will delete all your data

Thanks for that ak47. I was playing Nova 2 and the phone restarted it self. This is happening a lot now. So how do I clear the cache and how do you turn off apps that you don't need?

ak47m203 · Nov 22, 2011

for cache cleaning 1 click clear also Android booster. With android booster i can gain 60mb of memory before any game. Also go setting- application- manage applications- running.... from there you can stop anything that is running....but stop only things you know like your facebook, or weather channel. if you have facebook/email always on and always on sync turn it off. hopefully it works for you.

you can go direct here.

I've used both of these but still the phone still restarts.

Anything more I could do ?

ak47m203 · Nov 23, 2011

ok is your phone re- starting only in this game. and another thing you are upgraded to 2.3.4. this might be because of the new OS. i dont know how to go back to 2.3 again. anyone??

even with my PC, i hate microsoft upgrade/updates, it will always screw up other software.

TheGuitarBoss · Nov 23, 2011

I don't know how to reverse a update..

sufy1000 · Nov 23, 2011

Thanks for the help anyway. Yes I am on 2.3.4 I think that might be causing it.

What I'll do is that I will do a factory reset delete everything from the SD card and phone and will use it after that and see how it goes.

If anything happens I'll let you guys know

Google does the same thing if you have it automatically syncing.

You can use either flashtool (xda-developers has it) or www.wotanserver.com (see earlier post #21 about how to use wotan server) had the ability to downgrade your phone (both are free)

Anyone know if the Sony Ericsson Default Launcher is making my phone restart and freeze?

What if I use Go Launcher or Launcher pro would that make a difference?

Do you play any games like Nova 2 or run any intense apps ?

Yes, battlefield 2, dead space, and the need for speeds.

sufy1000 · Nov 25, 2011

So how often do you restart your phone ?

sufy1000 · Nov 26, 2011

Could the SD card be making my phone freeze ?

TheGuitarBoss · Nov 26, 2011

What do you mean, like force closes or actual crashes because my phone crashed once. Only once and what brand is it?

Yeah, my phone freezes and restarts I've got the r800i running android 2.3.4

Thing is I don't even have any apps running like games or anything big cause I don't have them installed and this is even after factory resetting my phone and erasing everything.

It's driving me nuts !

So can anyone provide me with a solution?

Would a class 10 micro SD card make a difference in the phone freezing or is the CPU causing the phone to freeze ?

Thanks !

Pull the battery. it'll stop booting.
You'll want to have the phone completely off before you plug it in (i.e. Pull battery, wait 30 seconds, put battery back in, DO NOT TOUCH THE POWER BUTTON, hold down the back button, while holding the back button plug in the usb cable connected to your computer. The led should turn green.)
