I'm new to Android just got phone two weeks ago. I have a Huawei Ascend M860 and I've developed a problem. In the last two days the phone will frequently restart when I close out an app or switch to home screen. I don't know if it is an app conflict or what. I could use help. Here is a list of apps I have installed if that helps: Exported by aTrackDog at 22:14:21 2010/12/15

Mh... That's hard to say.

First I would remember which app I installed right before the spontaneous reboots began. With this app I would start to deinstall. Sometimes it is an issue with the SD-card. Perhaps that is broken. If you have another one try this for a while.

If you can't find the problem, you can do a hard reset (settings - privacy - factory data reset). With that all your data will be ereased and you get a virgin mobile. In most cases the problem is then away.

He means that the phone will be returned to how it was when it came out of the box. Not like you getting a virgin, or signing up with Virgin Mobile. :grin:

Also, how much empty storage space do you have left on your phone's internal and microSD card?

I thnk I found the problem it seems to be the app "Memory Booster V2.5" if I have it turned on I have the problem. It will also reboot if its on and I exit it. It worked OK with the 15 day trial version but acted up after I paid for the full version.

Well, I'm glad to hear you managed to figure out the problem on your own. Any app that promises a performance increase is a scam unless your phone is rooted and the app is supposed to tweak the clocks/voltages of your device. However, if the app just kills apps at certain times, I suppose it might not be a scam. The thing is, you say that the performance went to shit after you purchased the paid version. Sounds fishy.
