Hi, in the last weeks I seems to get more and more problems with my phone. I hope I can explain in in a good way: Almost EVERY app I open crashes within the first 5 minutes. I currently have to restart the phone up to 3 times before the cam app starts. I don't know what happened that this behavior suddenly starts since I did nothing more then in the last 2 years.
I use whatsup which is usually always active and often the mail-app. I figured out that my mail-account might have to many mails and MBs so I deleted the account from the settings cleaned it on the server and re enabled it with imap in the phone and the app behaves now better, lets say like I'm used to.
But now I see that other apps like the cam or whatsup are still crashing. When I start the app I see the loading screen and then it disappears. Then nothing..empty screen and several minutes later the app is there and when I go inside I get the message app is hanging. Whatsup is regularly greyed out so when you open it from the active apps list you realize its getting restarted. Usually when this happen you have lost the server connection and messages appear only after the GUI is active again. So I guess the memory manager kills it completely.
Sailimgur is another example in the past crashed when you watched big gifs but in the latest version was extremely stable now though (no update made) I can barely use it it gets killed WHILE Im actively using it. and the reloads from the main page instead of the post where I was last - which looks to me like an app crash or reset.
But what causes this behavior?
I read here that others have problems with the phone if the memory was too full but I'm roughly at 50% usage. Can it be from a patch? but so far I had no problems with them. I deactivated all patched but I still don't see any improvement.
What else can I try? expect from resetting of course

edit: What I also discovered: the battery consumption is extreme in the last days. While I'm typing this I can literally see the battery dropping from 79% to 62%. Almost every minute I loose 1%. When I check with Crest or Lighthouse the active processes I see that I very often have booster [silica-qt5] running with 20 or more percent for many minutes.
