Update on my phone:

This morning I checked my phone and it was fine. Read a few emails, put it down to get some more coffee. When I came back 5 minutes later, the phone was black and non-responsive :mad:

Finally got it to restart and I had no cell network available...

Went to Settings -> Mobile networks -> Network Operators

It took a good 2 minutes before the phone finally listed TMobile and AT&T.

I clicked Choose automatically, and it finally registered on TMobile.

So maybe a sim or radio issue?

This is starting to get irritating.

The last 2 days i'm in stock ROM (4.2.2, not rooted, locked bootloader) while waiting my RMA

and no issues.

This can be a CM10.1 issue?

I'm on stock. It only happens to me when WiFi is enabled.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] myacco:
Been fighting this for a few weeks now. Called Google, explained the problem, they offered an RMA. Took the offer, the *new* phone rebooted within 2 hours of being powered on. Stuck on the "X" logo till it's powered off manually.

In my case at least, the phone seems to go into a funk whenever there's a handover from WiFi --> 3G. This is not consistent - for example, it's never happened when I roam away from home WiFi; happens only at work.

Also, the phone *wont'* go into a boot loop if it's not encrypted; it reboots once and stops. However, if the device is encrypted, it looks like the hand-over reboot is a "soft" reboot, the kernel never gets to the stage where it needs to ask for the unlock key, and that's that.

Convinced this is not a hardware issue. Will try the "WiFi Optimization" flag, if that doesn't work, will RMA this phone as well and ask for a refund.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda6969:
Different issue. This thread is not about reboots. There is a separate thread for that.

The phone turned off on me in the middle of taking a picture yesterday at 20% charge. I turned it back on only to find it dead again when I got home about an hour later. It would turn on only to turn back off after 5-10 seconds.

I plugged it into stock charger and turned it on - it showed "charging" and 14% charge. When I removed the charger, the phone turned off again. I left it charging for a couple of hours, the charge actually slowly went down to 5% despite the phone thinking that it's charging. Removing the plug caused the phone to turn off within a couple of seconds. At some point it reset wallpaper to default and there were gaps in its perceived charge levels.

I thought it might be a battery calibration issue, decided to load the bootloader and leave it like that until it discharges completely. Bootloader screen was up for half a night before the phone died. I plugged it into socket then - 14% and charging. Left it for the rest of the night - in the morning it's still on, 0% and charging. It remains operational if plugged, but dies instantly if I remove the charger. Plugging it into PC USB socket causes it to show "charging" indicator, but the phone wouldn't boot past google logo. Plugged into wall socket, it boots but doesn't charge (shows all indicators of charging, but chg level remains at 0%). It got worse and by the time I was calling the support, I couldn't turn it on at all.

Called support, they switched me to RMA with almost no troubleshooting. RMA process authorizes your card for the amount of phone cost and sends you a replacement. When you get it, you need to send your device back within 21 days and they withdraw the auth. Thus, you are not left without a phone. There were no physical warranty centers in the area where I live (Redmond, WA), had to go through mail only. Oddly enough the phone turned on and started charging normally immediately after call to support :) Now still charging, will observe.

All stock, phone is 2m old. Not sure if it's the same problem other folks here are seeing, looks like some sort of bug with either the battery or charging circuit.

It's 3rd Android phone in a row that I've owned that had some kind of hardware problem. Previous was Chinese Gigabyte (a bunch of stuff after 2 months of usage), before that - Galaxy Nexus that would not charge past certain threshold (started at 90% and went down to 4% which essentially provided 20 minutes of usage, service told that mainboard replacement was needed).

Hi just think it's time to update...

Following xda6969 solution seems so far working for me. I turned off wifi and phone has been running without random turn off for more than 3 weeks (i didn't do any reboot on my phone), even when I went overseas for 5 days with wifi on.

I guess no issue for 3 weeks can't be a coincidence. Normally my phone only last 3-4 days before random off.

Now I'm planning to check on my home router (if possible to replace it). I'm suspecting my router is not good as I've been able to use wifi for 5 days without phone reboot while overseas.

Cheers!

My phone turned off three times since I got it on April 25 but only started last 5 days. Here are some details:

Phone is stock with only a few apps added like brokerage, Skype.

1) April 25-29. Phone was in US with Tmobile SIM. Connected to wifi occasionally in hotels.

2) April 30-May 8. Phone in foreign country. Airplane mode only. Connected to wifi very infrequently. TMobile SIM in phone.

3) May 8 to date. In Sweden. Changed to Telia SIM (mobile data turned off but used for voice and SMS). Connected to wifi 90% of the time.

No problems for 1) and 2). Phone has turned off three times under 3). Twice I had to connect charger but the phone had 50% or more charge when it came on. Turned off when NOT charging in all three cases. Happened when I left it a few hours and then picked it up.

Another detail: my Telia SIM has simlock while Tmobile does not. I downloaded some Telia apps (seem to be harmless) and I also think that I did not install Skype until I got to Sweden, but not sure.

Wifi Optimization has been turned off.

I will be in a fourth country in a few days where I don't use this as my primary phone. It will be in airplane mode but I can experiment leaving wifi on and off unlike 2) where there was no wifi connection. To be clear, I probably had wifi active most of the time but it was not connected to any network.

What I see, since Wi-Fi is mentioned that might be causing it.. Maybe it is. I got my replacement 2wks ago.. No Wi-Fi on and phone has been great.. I'm on my 2nd replacement now and with this one I thought I'd give it a shot of not using WiFi, since I've notice it had been shutting off while connected to it.. :)

Nexus 4 Sleep of Death likely WiFi-related

Hi everyone.

Having searched the Internet high and low for a solution to the Nexus 4 "Sleep of Death"-problem I stumbled across this thread, so I felt inclined to write a few lines about my own experiences as a Nexus 4 owner. Here are the details:

My phone has had the "sleep of death"-state several times after I bought it a couple of months ago

When the phone has had the "sleep of death"-episodes, it has been connected to a D-Link DIR 825 dual band router operating on the 2.4 and 5 GHz frequency bands

The phone has only had the "sleep of death"-episodes when its WiFi-circuits have been switched on

The phone has (yet) to have a single "sleep of death" when I switched off WiFi. Ever since, it has only been connected to the 3G cellular network, without a single "sleep of death"

As far as my apps and my general settings go, here are some additional details

My phone is a stock, un-rooted Nexus 4 running Android 4.2.2 (the latest version of Jelly Bean)

I don't use any weird auto-start apps at all - in fact, I try to keep the phone as clean and un-bloated as possible

I don't use any homescreen replacements, any lockscreen replacements, any wakestate-altering apps or anything similar

As far as I can tell, the "sleep of death"-problem is totally WiFi-related and should be dealt with by LG and Google accordingly. Hopefully, the next OS update (presumably Android 4.3) will fix this once and for all.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
More than 2 weeks after I have received my RMA and no more issues.

I have configured the new N4 exactly equal come the old, but no issues now...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flrxda:
I agree with this analysis. I had my phone for one week in a location where there was no Wifi where I was staying; the phone did not shut down. It just happened for the third time in another location (country) where I connected it to Wifi and it went down overnight (probably after 36 hours of constant connection). And this was the first time it was charging when it went down. This time when I pressed the volume and power buttons it went to the bootloader.

Now I am going to do an experiment: leave it off wifi for a week again.

The routers are both locations where it went down were Linksys WRT54GS or whatever they are called.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flrxda:
Did you (or could you) experiment by keeping the phone connected to wifi continuously while not using the phone?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FlavioALima:
Hello, guys. First time posting here.

I'm having the same issues with my N4. I don't know if it's related to wifi, because last time it rebooted (right now...), wifi was off, location service was off, Google Now was off... I was just browsing in Chrome. I did factory reset many times by now, and the problem always happen again.

Worst part: not always it gets to restart properly. Sometimes it gets stuck on Google logo screen, sometimes on X logo screen, sometimes it restarts just after showing home screen... It even restart after a factory reset, during initial phone setup!

Thanks all!

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flrxda:
Yes, my phone went down for the 4th time a few days ago without wifi being on so I think it's a red herring. The phone was in airplane mode and not connected to wifi. Since then I have it off wifi when the phone is sleeping. It's been up for about three straight days.

If you are browsing in Chrome then it's a different matter. People here are complaining of having the phone "asleep" and then going into deep sleep.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda6969:
Random reboots is a different issue and covered under a different thread.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FlavioALima:
Well, the original post says:

"Essentially my phone randomly turns itself off (no power down sequence, almost as though the battery's being taken out if you know what I mean) and then it has difficulty in fully booting again. For some reason it also likes to revert my wallpaper back to the original as stock."

This is exactly what is happening to me, no matter if it's sleeping or doing something.

I must add I have the feeling that it happens when I try to do things very quickly, or do something while the phone still is in the middle of another... Yes, I know, not very helpful...

Anyway, if someone could point me out the right thread, I would be very grateful!

Thanks!

Hi guys, it's my first post here...I have the same issue, my phone goes randomly in sleep of death, I have noticed on the battery graph that the phone usually keep the same battery level for a bit before it goes in sod, and after the battery level falls down. I was thinking that it is a battery issue, or a motherboard issue. Maybe the chip of the battery is corrupted, so when there are this jumps of the battery level the phone goes in sod, or maybe the motherboard has problems to notice correctly the battery level, so something goes wrong and it brings the phone to sod. What do you think about it?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TBOTO:
Same boat here.....;(

Two week old Nexus 4 (4.2.2) randomly shutting off. Also screen goes blank during calls and have to hard reset phone every time.

Coincidently this all started after installing Titanium Backup ★ root. My phone is not rooted. Not sure why I installed the app.

Hope Google fixes this bug or gives me an HTC ONE :eek:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macori:
Maybe I was wrong...tonight for the first time it goes in sod during night, it wasn't charging...the battery level fell from 90% to 10%....probably the jumps of battery level is not the reason of the issue, but a consequence of the issue...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blooddragon2000:
Hi just thought i would chip in and say the same thing has happened to me. I have had the phone for one week, when i picked the phone up to check it the phone was completely unresponsive, initially i though it was bricked! But it did power back on after holding the power button for longer than usual. I have noticed the youtube app has been behaving in a strange manner it had crashed shortly before this incident. I have also noticed that when the youtube app starts the top of the screen kind of flickers this only happens the first time the app is loaded, the app frequently crashes if you try to jump to certain parts in a video. I also want to say that the random shutdown occurred when the phone was NOT connected to the charger. The phone was rooted but os was kept stock i only rooted it to get aosp browser, i have since reflashed stock rom unrooted and relocked the bootloader, youtube app still crashing. I wonder if i should just send the phone back to google and try and get a refund before the 15 day period expires.

SIM CARD!

Hello all!

Yesterday, I removed the SIM card from my Nexus to put it on a backup phone, and then I made some tests with N4 without it. Well, there was NO ONE REBOOT AT ALL. I spent the whole day with it, installed everything I had before and all went well. I even turn it off an on again a couple times and no problems.

After that, I put the same SIM card back and so far, so good.

What do you think about it? Bad SIM card? Bad connections?

Thanks!

== My Result ==

Apparently I have to Agree with xda6969, his early post already mentioned that this related to WiFi.

And yes. My case is related to WiFi. If you want to know the specific router:

TP-LINK TL-WR841N (And yes this is a problematic router too. It will die after you run Torrent for days)

I have turned off my WiFi for a Month (third week I rebooted the phone once) and my N4 fine without Sleep of Death for a Month. I stop thinking about RMA since as I will see the same problem if I do so.

The last encounter of Sleep of Death when I forgotten to turn off my wifi after google update few days ago. The next morning no alarm fired, I can't turn it on, but the led just blinking as if it still running and receiving messages.

I never encounter REBOOT so far.

== Next test ==

Now I'm testing it with WiFi on, but not connected to any network. See if I still see SoD.

I'm suspecting WiFi issue only happen to specific router (or problematic router).

Cheers,

Kebo.

Hmm actually my ADSL router is 2701HGV-E 2-Wire Gateway (its a voice gateway too), my TP-LINK router is acting as an access point.

But my n4 only connected to TP-LINK as my gateway is too far from my room.

I might try to connect my phone to 2-Wire and see if I seeing the issue.

*Trying to see the relation here, might need hear from others if they are using voice gateway too or 2-wire router*
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macori:
Hi guys, I'm trying to follow your tests about Wi-Fi...I have already noticed that it always happened when WiFi was on, and in the graph of battery, even if phone looked off, there was the blue bar of WiFi...so I was thinking, could you try to do tests with other N4 connected at yours routers?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sincro:
I also believe that my the problem is wifi related. I Have posted on this thread before but here's an summary/update.

I received my Nexus 4 in February. For the first couple of weeks it was great, then I had SOD's averaging three a week for the next 3 weeks. Normally occurring at night while charging. I had heard that re-flashing the stock 4.2.2 image helps with this problem (I had previously carried out factory resets, cashe wipes etc without success) anyhow I re-flashed over the stock image. I'm not sure why re-flashing should help but I did managed 6 weeks without a problem under the same usage pattern. It was probably coincidental as the problem returned :(

Now for what I've found....

The problem has occurred at home on all but one occasion.

The problem has happen twice when the phone was not being charged (during the day). On one of these occasions a check of the battery stats showed that the level went from 85% to 20% almost instantly. Not sure about the other occasion as I failed to check.

I have had no problems if I put the phone into 'airplane mode' whilst charging the phone at night at home.

I have had no problems when wifi is switched off, even when charging over night.

As I work as a Generator engineer, work takes me away for home for prolonged periods, normally to remote sites. My phone is often left in my van ON charge all day and it has never failed on these occasions (no wifi available and normally a poor cell signal, the phone is still searching for wifi though).

I cannot be 100% sure but I believe that the problem has only occurred when the phone is connected to wifi (at home and once on a hotel wifi connection).

My phone is running stock 4.2.2 No root/unlocked bootloader.

My router is a TP-Link TD-W8961ND.

I have two other phones, three tablets a laptop and two desktops on this router, occasionally all are connected at the same time. None of the other devices have any problems. Only the N4 has a problem and so at the moment I believe that the problem is wifi related, for me anyhow.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kebosatu:
Do you get this problem only when connected to your TP-LINK or any other routers/access point as well?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sincro:
I once had it happen while working away. I left it connected to the hotels wifi over night. N4 was in SOD when I woke up. Unfortunately I failed to find out what router they used. It was early days and I hadn't associated wifi with the problem.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carljoe:
I can confirm I have the exact same issue. Everytime SOD has occured I have been on my WIFI at home. I made a youtube video about it (sorry for my english)

My router is a Asus rt-n56u dualband.

im now on my 4 RMA and I'm supposed to get a new one. Been a nightmare getting a new device, because it is impossible to reproduce the bug on command. I then made the YouTube video to show whats wrong.
[Nexus 7 General] noneabove:
Hey guys, I've encountered quite the problem with my N7.. I was flashing PA onto it, and it didn't work out, so I tried going back to what I had before, but my folders had gotten all messed up for some reason, and long story short, whenever I flash a new ROM while factory resetting, it doesn't work (can't access folders, can't connect via usb (or when I can I can't edit files or move stuff onto there), managed to get a file manager installed but when I put my CWM backup in the right spot it wouldn't restore.. **** hit the fan), and I can't get my computer to recognize it in fastboot mode, help? :(

For the record at this point I'm okay with relocking the bootloader and unlocking it for a full and complete wipe, but it won't even let me do that much..

Nvm finally with the help of a toolkit i got fastboot to reply... guess it just needed to be polled a bunch of times, was really weird :S
