Random unlock reset

[markchen]

I am getting random device resets when I swipe to unlock the phone. Any ideas?

[markchen]

I am new to Droid. What do you mean by bloatware?

 

[ThaiBoy02]

Bloatware is apps like Amazon or blockbuster that just hog resources that you can't remove unless your rooted

ok, I see. I will look into it.

Do you have either a task manager or antivirus installed? If so uninstall both. Also, when was the last time you restarted your phone (more than the soft reset it does with your problem)?

 

[markchen]

I have AVG antivirus installed. My last battery pull was yesterday.

Thats most likely going to be your problem, uninstall it. You dont need it, theres a few reason in the first link in my signature if you want to read why.

I will uninstall antivirus and see if the reset goes away. Thank you for your help.

Mine does it wether I have lookout downloaded or not. Hasn't done it lately, I think it's a software thing. I don't run task killers.

I don't have anything downloaded on mine and it still randomly does it once or twice a day.
