[samtheogre]

I few weeks back i bought this samsung galaxy phone. And it's awesome, Until u try to call someone.after the call is finished, the phone hangs and it reboots automatically!
There were very few apps installed in my phone, i uninstalled all of them and still the phone rebooted EVERY TIME!
Here are my phone's specs:
Android 2.3.5
Not Rooted
836 Mhz processor

Please help me if u can
P.S-Please don't give me solutions like taking it to the service center. as these samsung service centers in India are piece of crap.

Hi Sam, I own a Samsung Galaxy Y too and faced the same problem over 3 weeks until last night, I had contacted Samsung and researched internet everyday to find a solution without landing myself anywhere, finally I thought of doing something on my own as this thing was killing me. I do not know if this is completely fool proof but haven't faced the restart problem since then.

Please follow the below steps to have this sorted out:

Go to Settings ---> Click on Applications ---> Click on Manage Applications ---> Click on All tab ---> Select each and every application you have on your phone and clear cache.

I guess the reason behind this is Galaxy's RAM is only 290 MB & Phone Memory is 190 MB and if we do not clear the cache and stuff the memory gets piled up too much for the phone to handle.

As I said, I just got this last night so hoping this is the main cause of the restarting problem.

If this does not work will try and find something else for ourselves.

Thanks & Regards,
