Whether you’re talking about major upgrades or just the regulatory ones, software updates are the key to keeping your mobile device well-tuned. Not only do they bring new features and optimizations to your Android device, but also help fix the broken elements and keep the security side of things up to date.
However, sometimes a software update can seem to break more things than it fixes, which includes app crashes and random reboots. Fortunately, these issues are easy to fix and there are multiple things that you can try to resolve them. If you recently updated your Android device and are facing the reboot issue, here’s what you can do to about it.
As simple as it sounds, sometimes rebooting your device and giving it fresh start can help fix most of the system issues.
Rebooting your Android device can help reset apps that may be causing the device to crash and restart. However, if this doesn’t work for you, move on to the next step.
Third-party apps and even system apps are often the culprits behind random system crashing and abrupt reboots, so it just might be useful to make the most out of the Safe Mode settings.
The device will now reboot into Safe Mode, at which point all of the third-party apps will be unavailable for use. If the crashing and rebooting issue is solved, it is safe to assume that one of your recently installed apps is causing the issue. However, if the problem still persists, you might need to consider a hard reset.
If it is an app that is behind the random rebooting issue on your Android device, the easiest way to fix it all is to reinstall the app itself with all of its recent updates.
Any misbehaving app should now be taken care of, along with the rebooting issue. If you’re still riddled with the issue, there is a final option.
There’s always a chance of residual system files that weren’t cleared during the software update to cause issues. The best way to get rid of any issues is to wipe the slate clean with a factory reset. Make sure that you have backed up all of your personal data before you proceed with this step.
The final solution is on the extreme side of things, but is almost guaranteed to work if none of the other steps help you patch up your phone. Be sure to let us know in the comments section if you know a better way to fix reboot issues after a software update.
