I've had 3 restarts since I did this, so I guess it didn't work for me.

Could just be that the ram on your phone is going bad. I had to replace mine a couple months back because it was just rebooting constantly.  Always seemed random and the app I was using didn't seem to matter.

I've thought about doing a replacement, but I've had this phone since new. I have almost always had problems with refurbs so I'm trying to hold out.

Was it always doing reboots or is it just since the marshmallow update?

Just since the update to marshmallow, that's why I don't really think it's hardware related. I've done a factory reset and it didn't fix it.

I can tell you what I figured out.  After the marshmallow update I set up encryption on my phone and mine would inevitably reboot about once a day after it was sitting for a while and I would pick it up and hit the home button.  I think I finally figured out that Doze was putting the fingerprint reader and security processes into deep sleep. So whenever I went to wake up the phone once it was out for a while it would go a bit crazy trying to wake up and re-authenticate the security settings.  I went into the battery settings and turned off battery optimization for all of the apps that seemed like they were security related.  Since then my phone hasn't done a reboot since. 

 

So even if you don't have encryption turned on or use the finger print reader you might want to check that out.  Maybe turn off doze for every app and see how that goes.  Then add doze back one app at a time.

I just turned off the battery optimizations. I'll run it for a few days like this and see what happens. Thanks for the tip.

Now I'm having an issue the last week+ or so that my Note 4 has just shut off by itself even when sitting idle on a table. Guess I'll try a new battery.

New update. Downloading now

Just finished installing it. Hopefully it'll fix my restart issue. It's not been terrible. Usually once or twice a day, but it's still annoying when it happens.

After the initial Marshmallow update, I did a factory reset. I just don't want to pay to get a replacement. I may break down and do it at some point though.

Not the factory reset from the phone

Mine still restarts randomly after a replacement note 4 from sprint. Initial replacement was due to hardware failure but seems like it can be both

My phone just downloaded a new software update.  Where can I look to see what it is supposed to do for my phone?  Sprint forums didn't seem to help.

 

For that matter is this the number I need to search on--   n910pvpu4dpe1    ?

It gives the improvements on the software install prompt.  This one was security as well as fixing WiFi bugs.

jreuschl - and I was mostly asleep when that rolled by.  Is there anyway to see that, or a comparable, listing now- post install?

    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
    • Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
    • Drove out into the country today.  Dish stuck to my phone like glue. At least -120 rsrp. Likely only good for phone calls (should have tested.) It then switched to T-Mobile. Getting back on Dish was another issue. I am used to dragging out coverage so I expected a few miles, but had to drive at least 10 miles towards a Dish site. Airplane mode, which worked for Sprint, did nothing. Rebooting did nothing. Finally got it to change over about 2 miles from the site by manually setting the carrier to Dish then it had great reception. Sprint used to have a 15 minute timeout but I did not have the patience today.  Previously I did a speed test on Dish out in the country at the edge of Dish coverage. My speeds were 2g variety. Dish has really overclocked some of these sites. Seen rssp readings in the 50s. Would have called them boomer sites with Sprint but much  more common with Dish.
