  • My previous phone was replaced when the main (for most apps only) camera stopped working, and more importantly, it randomly rebooted frequently whenever Wi-Fi was on. Also, my carrier didn’t acknowledge that it used LTE, so it was about to be booted off the network.

    Also the OS was old enough that some apps I used were starting to drop support and I would hear about others I couldn’t install.

    And Google Services Framework very often got into a rut where it would use 100% CPU and crash every few seconds, eventually getting bad enough that rebooting rarely helped. I wrote a long bash script to try and monitor it and reset it when it did this (by deleting a file that occasionally seemed to help and killing all its processes at once) but it just got worse over time. I didn’t want to do a factory reset for some reason I’ve now forgotten.
