The S8+ is a good phone, from what I understand. I've got the S9+ and love it, but I hear it's not a huge improvement over the S8+. |

I'm going to try another reset first and sleep on it for a day or two first...I just don't want to be caught without a phone if it goes belly up. |

edit: Hell, if you're that bothered, get it replaced under warranty then sell the replacement for $300-400. |

I just reset it again and there was an update waiting, 264mb -Android P-PPR1 which I'm hoping might be security and bug fixes. Pie hasn't been good for me lol. I think your suggestion makes more sense. I'll see if this is still acting up and just use the warranty if it is. Thanks for the feedback ![]() |

I still can't use my photos app after that update last night, instant crash, and between buying windows and doors and siding for my house, body work on the truck and updating a bathroom LOL....just not the best time to buy an overpriced phone. I was hoping the update and reset would fix some of that. If the OS itself starts crashing on me again today I'm just going in and doing a warranty swap. |

![]() Is there a way to clear the cache partition? That usually clears things up on Samsung phones when things go wonky. |

![]() It's google photos. Sometimes I can browse, but mostly it just stops working, especially right after taking a photo. I've submitted crash data numerous times for it. Textra is another - this is the one that (rare but often enough) causes the whole OS to crash, freezing and/or rebooting the phone, so I'll be trying others there as well. |

edit: No cache partition, but it looks like 3rd party apps can wipe app cache if the menu doesn't support it. Last edited by Lazy8s : Oct 12, 2018 at 09:03 AM. |

![]() Have you tried restoring the phone from a stock firmware? Probably more work than you should have to put in, but just an idea. You can download the Fastboot files here: https://www.essential.com/developer/current-builds You'll need the ADB toolkit, which you can find here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho....php?t=2588979 And you'll need the Essential ADB drivers, here: https://support.essential.com/hc/en-...ssential-Phone I can help more if you decide to try this route, feel free to PM. |
