Hello everyone. I'm new here, of course.
Just got my Android phone last week. It is LG Optimus Slider (VM701) from Virgin Mobile.
Since the first day I got it, it would reboot automatically usually about twice a day. Now, it depends on the day. Sometimes it would reboot once, sometimes twice.
I went to check for a software update this morning, and it rebooted real quick, showing the LG logo.
All is fine with the operation of the phone. I seem to not encounter anymore problems, but is this worth getting a replacement phone while I have the chance? Before answering, please read the below information.
Please let me know your thoughts of it rebooting a couple times per day, and whether it is okay for it to do this. Any suggestions welcome.

- I have not dropped the phone.
- I'm very careful when carrying it, especially in my pocket.
- It shows low disk space pretty often, because I have just under 20 MB available.
- The phone is not rooted, and does not have any downloaded applications that run with root permission.
- I have avast! Mobile Security with AntiTheft installed. It enabled a device administrator for the phone.
- Here is the list of installed apps that currently run automatically at boot:
- avast! Mobile Security
- JuiceDefender
- OEM apps (of course)
