Strange happening on my Samsung G3 phone.

Galaxy Tab2 47

Android Enthusiast
Every so often maybe once a week never at the same time, i hear a quick sound from my phone then i see the Samsung LoGo on screen maybe for three seconds, then it's back to normal. Is Samsung contacting my phone for some type of check?:rolleyes:
 
It sounds like your phone is rebooting on its own. It shouldn't be doing this. I would suggest you try powering off the phone completely. Then you should remove the battery and check that the contacts aren't dirty. Most likely they aren't, but since you are doing a battery pull, you might as well check. Leave the battery out for at least 20 seconds. Then put the battery back in and start the phone again.

See if you are still experiencing these restarts periodically. If you are, then I would suggest you exchange it for a new one. There is something wrong if it continues to randomly reboot.
