Sudden Android restart

The android system on my phone keeps restarting in the middle of an app.When the problem accures, it looks like the phone turns off copletely (the huawei sign comes on, then my background and then I have to fill in the pin number, enter my pattern and then it says that Android is restarting. But my history of apps is gone) does anyone knows either this problem is a bug in the software or its by an app that fails?
 
It's also possible it's a hardware problem. If it's always the same app that would suggest the app (though it's very hard for an app to crash the OS). If not then try running in safe mode and see whether it still happens. That will rule out your apps.

Are there other symptoms, such as it getting hot?
 
I first of all thought it would be a app but I deleted several apps and it diden't dissapear with them. I use my phone quiet intesive and it has been hot many times but it diden't happen every time, but I think it never happend while it was at a normal temperature
 
Possibly, but it shouldn't be easy for a non Play Store app to crash a phone either. If the crash can happen in safe mode you can rule out all of your apps, wherever they are installed from.

Overheating could crash the device, which is why I raised that question. Of course phones are supposed to throttle first in order to prevent the temperature reaching the shutdown point.
