Re: [Tablet] Nexus 7 resetting, google CS sending replacement
said by hoyleysox:I've had the nexus 7 for about four months and it just reset on me twice today, both times while I was typing a message. Pissed me off the first did not get saved in draft. It had never reset on me like that before.
Do you remember what version of Jelly Bean you were running? How were you holding it?
said by androidpolice.com :
Random Reboots / Major Instability
Known affected devices: Nexus 10, Nexus 7, Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4.
File this one under "critical," as well. I myself have experienced this bug - my Nexus 7 rebooted no less than 4 times this weekend, several when it was just sitting idle with the display off. That's... bad. I've since done a factory reset, and in the last hour, so far so good. You'd think a problem this serious would be limited to a pretty specific subset of hardware, but no - everything but the Nexus 4 is affected (which seems to be the case for every one some of these bugs, oddly) all Nexus devices appear to be affected (thanks for the input about the Nexus 4, guys). The reboots occur when opening webpages in Chrome, using Play Magazines, and a variety of other circumstances (like doing nothing at all).

| Its android 4.2.1, Build Number J0P40D, it says my system is "up to date." Hopefully that answers the question about the jellybean version... It updated recently.
I was cradling the bottom with both palms and typing with my thumbs both times it went off.
Google's customer service sent me an email thanking me for calling the second time, but their message did not indicate if they had changed the shipping address.  |

I hope it's just Jelly Bean. Mine is updated to 4.2.1, Build Number J0P40D. I also use a leather cover with the magnets. Plus I hold it one handed down on the left corner when reading which is what I do the most.

I have the same (rooted) and physically use it the same. It's never once reset. It's on its third OS version. I do have a bit of white screen flicker but that's been it.
