Started to now have just random reboots out of nowhere. I don't know if it has something to do with the fact that I run android whatsapp on all times but I can't see any reason for it to do such a thing. Anybody else have this?

I have exactly same problems and I also use Android version of Whatsapp. Today I was taking photo with WhatsApp, enabled flashlight and took picture and phone (or atleast homescreen) restarted. Later When I had WhatsApp open and I opened phone settings it happened again.. And little later while writing longer message in whatsapp phone went to bootloop, had to take battery away for a while. In summary I've been forced to take battery out almost every day now, sometimes more than once a day.

I don't believe this has anything to do with hardware problems, since my phone just was at warranty repair ~week before 1.1.7.28 was released, and I haven't got any issues like this since then. These problems started after I was using 1.1.9.28 for a while.

I had random reboots with 1.1.7, but no longer with 1.1.9.

After I took battery from my phone and kept it out ~30mins my Jolla got ~10,5day uptime. Then rebooted again couple of times. I noticed that battery level was really down which probably caused reboots this time. I charged battery up, but phone didn't work proberly (notification bar missed so no visible battery status etc. Again battery away ¨30mins and everything works. Hopefully these "have to remove battery" issues won't show up with tablet!

I have reboots after 1.1.9.28 update. Have never reboots before. Mostly reboot occurs when i try to answer incoming call. Sometimes when using apps. Haven't noticed any relations to battery level or other things. Phone can reboot two or three times in a row (screen goes blank, then Jolla logo, then lock screen. Unlock action - and another reboot). Tried reset device, upgrade it to latest version - same results.

Hello. I had same problem. I searched here a lot and found recommendation about small paper under battery. I tried this and it solved random reboots completely. I suggest you to try this. Remove battery, place small paper list (i used two parts each of 2 or 3 layers) to make some space between phone and battery, install battery and back cover.

Hi, do you have the same problem with 2.0.1.11 or some other update?

Hello. I applied this solution before 2.0, can not remember details (i think ~9 months ago), but this fix resolved problem completely on my device. No one random reboot after.

This solution does'nt work for me.. :/ I still have random reboot when I draw more power from the battery (camera, flash)
