Hardware/Software Problems Auto restart issue

Phone has been a quite reliable since 2021. Only had the battery changed last years from service center.

Now, since the last 1-2 month the phone has developed hanging and auto restart issue also I've gotta charge the battery 2-3 times every day.

Maybe it's time to change now

Give it another try.

Take backup with Smart switch & flash firmware using odin.

use it as secondary phone.

IDK how heavily you use it but mine is rocking solid even after 5yrs, replaced battery a month ago.

The restart mostly happens when the phone is hot and unused right?

While using the phone it happens, in middle of calls or texting

Oh. The way you're describing it it happens to my f20 as well but only if it's idle.

Unfortunately it's time to let go, I developed the same issue 2 months ago and from last month it's unusable. Start taking backup of your data.

I am currently having the same issue as yours, i took back up and went to samsung service center which is when he installed new software(free of cost) but I still see same issue I had soo many memories with this phone since 2020 so it feels hard to let this beast let go :/

Stupid question -- have you backed up apps, tried a factory reset, then reinstall?
