    Jokes on them, my S22 Ultra restarts in it’s own. Even when I don’t want it to.

      This is gonna sound odd, but have you cleaned out the USB port lately? Weird stuff happens when pocket lint collects in there. I thought mine had a dead port until I picked out (with a non-conductive toothpick) the lint I didn’t realize had accumulated.

      Really? My S22u is super stable. I don’t think it’s ever crashed. The current up time is 377 hours. But that’s only because of the 6.1 update a few weeks ago.

      Don’t e.g. alarm apps not work after that until you unlock your phone since the device data decryption keys weren’t kept in RAM after rebooting? I have that feature off since I don’t want that to happen. Afaik AOSP has added that to make installing updates more seamless, but it’d be useful for this too. (And since Samsung usually sucks at improving their already self-made stuff to align with AOSP, like Virtual A/B updates, I’m just assuming this)

      Replace your battery.

      Your phone is 2 years old.

      Phone batteries are typically designed to last around 2 years before they really degrade because a lot of people buy new ones around every 2-3 years.

      When the battery can’t sustain the same throughput, the phone can handle this in one of two ways.

      1. Slow the phone down. This is what Apple does and why people with iPhones 2 years old complain the new update slowed their phone down.

      2. Don’t slow it down but if the throughput drops below what’s needed, die and reboot. This is what your phone is doing.

      Getting a new battery will probably stop this behavior (and for iPhone users reading this, getting a new battery for a 2 year old phone will make your phone faster).

        I have an s22 ultra as well, and it’s fine? Sounds more like they have some rogue apps causing the restart.

          Half life is typically probabilistic.

          You were lucky. They were not.

            My phone is 3 years old and is still going strong. The battery feels the same to me as the day I bought it, but I also don’t consume a full battery in a day.
