Anyone else have a z10 that freezes and restarts itself? Happened three times yesterday and twice today. Any ideas?

Happened to me. Your device is defective, exchange it for a new one.

When I have had this happen, I was scrolling through different lists, usually a little on the rapid side. It hasn't happened very often.

The #1 cause of random reboots from what I have observed are sideloaded apps.

Are you using any of those?

This never happened the Z10 is flawless and perfect. How dare you imply otherwise you must be an employee of crapple!!! Besides, they always tell the truth! Grow up and learn how to use this wonderful Canadian device!

Almost everybody uses those. I have frequent reboots on mine (2-3 times a day). Always happens when it's in the original case.

He is being sarcastic. For some reason he feels the need to insult it. Threatened, burned in the past, who knows? All I know is that it is childish.

Has not happened to me. I have not side loaded any apps.

Actually I sincerely doubt that. You can't make assumptions like that based on people posting on CB, for example, because there is a far, far higher percentage of "power users" here than there are in the general customer base.

There's a reason the Z10 documentation provides zero information on sideloading and you have to turn on this seeeeekrit "development mode" to sideload apps, and it's not because they want to encourage every Joe the Plumber and Jane the Bookkeeper to do it.

What sideloaded apps are you running?

[netnative]

Add me to the list. The freeze/restart episode occurred for the first time a few minutes ago shortly after installing Battery Guru. I purchased the Z10 on March 22nd and have not sideloaded any applications.

Haven't seen this username on a forum in a long time, Sandman.

My guess is it's the side loaded apps to be honest. There have been issues where the android runtime isn't shutting down even after you close the app.

I have had my phone freeze twice in the holster and it has rebooted on me one time while I was loading "Jetpack Joyride" in the background...

As you know I don't have a single side-loaded app... as much as BB gave us the function to do it I don't like the idea that it's older Android apps on an older emulator... I'll feel a lot better starting to sideload once BB brings Jellybean to the table.

Also add me to the list.

I did download a android application in BlackBerry World but have NOT side loaded any applications... (And I refuse to).

Both times it crashed while my device was plugged into the playbook charger and using the Podcasts application

[limodavid]

MIne did it at least four times today. Should I take it back for a new one? No side loaded apps.

Same for me.

It's true my BB z10 was rebooting on its own,I have verizon got my phone on thusday around 4:00 pm .Before goin to sleep the phone shut off once,Friday it did it again twice,Today in the morning it did it again! I notice each time I've been watching videos, using voice voice controled...it wasn't working well, media related stuff!....soo today i was brave and decided to back up my phone and rebooted after it came up from reboot it ask to update software,which I did and when then my maps needed updating and when I used voice controled it was better .My cousin has ATT and I had used her voice controled and she was impressed,her responce she know like siri.My phone from Vz voice control was not the same until I rebooted then it was the same like my Cuzz Z10.

[eelect]

check installed programs. one of them is causing this to happen. I have a Verizon one and it is stable with no reboots so far. keep checking for updates in appworld and update to newer verions when available asap

[agp101]

One thing's for sure is that it seems very sporadic and random, thus not allowing us to be able to accurately identify a root cause. To me it happens once in a while.. can go a whole week with no reboots then a couple days ago it rebooted 3 times in the span of 5 hours.. then nothing. Device was in standby with only battery guru running. Hasn't rebooted since. It doesn't bother me too much since the reboot time now is less than a minute; also the fact that my gf Galaxy Nexus also rebooted randomly multiple times a day (much more than what is reported on these forums with the z10) when she first got it.. got resolved with a software update.

It bothers me cause I know something is not working perfectly, but it doesn't actually bother me in the sense that it gets in my way, seeing as it's maybe once a week and it reboots in less than a minute.
