Tip & How-To about Miscellaneous
My LG G3 phone started randomly rebooting and eventually got to the point that it would go into a continuous reboot loop. That is, I would see the LG splash screen and before my carrier's screen could come up, it would reboot again. The only way out of this was to hold down the power button as soon as the LG splash screen appeared. This would power off the phone but also made it unusable.
I talked to my carrier's tech support and they couldn't help. As I kept fiddling with the phone, I noticed that the problem could be exacerbated by adding a processing load like by turning on location services. Turn on GPS and the phone reboots. Try to install a new app and the phone reboots. This led me to believe that the problem might be the battery. Also, the same actions didn't cause a reboot if the phone was plugged into a charger.
Batteries are cheap so I ordered a replacement battery and, so far, no more problem.
