My phone is freezing/not waking/crashing/etc?

• Make sure it is not a program that you recently installed that is causing the problem. If you determine it is the phone, take it back. Android does not have the problems that some other phones have and you shouldn't need to be doing battery pulls.

  Google Sky Map
  Ring Toggle
  Weather Widgets
  WeatherBug
  WiFi OnOff
