You can still encounter random shutting down/restarting issues due to the high CPU frequency allocated.

2. Disturbances in Auto Syncing and Updating

Chances are you might not know if your firmware is compatible with the updates being installed, and this can cause conflict with apps not being able to communicate with your current firmware. It is generally seen with Gmail Updates and other Pre-installed Apps. On the other hand, auto-syncing complies with the same behavior as updating.

Touch Wiz is a front-end touch interface developed by Samsung Electronics with partners, featuring an entire touch user interface. TouchWiz is present on your Samsung Galaxy.

However, there may be issues with pre-built and pre-boot-up features set by default providers, Such as At&t, Verizon, Fido, that can cause your android phone to restart automatically. Some users installed Custom Stocks on their phone, which can cause this issue on their phone.

5. Stock ROM compatibility Issues

It is one of the most ignored solutions for the “Samsung galaxy constantly restarting by itself issue.”, installing Cyanogenmod can modify your Stock ROM. It may void the warranty. You do not need to root your device for this method.

Installing Cyanogenmod will factory reset your phone, so it’s better to backup. There are several ways to create a backup.

• One of the best options is to use Samsung’s very own Kies software that we usually use to update the software of our Galaxy devices.
• The second way to create a backup of the device is with a Google account. Head towards Settings> General> Backup & Reset, and it will provide two options named backup my data and automatic restores. Ensure those options are made by ticking the checkbox next to them, and it will backup details like Wi-Fi password, app data, Google settings, and bookmarks automatically to the Google server so that they can be retrieved again in case anything wrong happens with the device.
• Another practical and easiest way to create a backup is using the Samsung account. For that, go to application> settings> User and backup> Account and check if you are signed in with your Samsung account. If the option is made on, it will sync the contacts, calendar, and internet settings to the Samsung account.
