Pixel 6, many random reboots (auto reboot feature disabled)

Overcook0708

Hi,

My Pixel 6, which has been running GOS for years, has started to randomly and frequently reboot. I'm having trouble isolating the issue.
The auto reboot feature is disabled, reboots don't only happen when using the phone, sometimes it's sitting there idling and I see it rebooting. It happens multiple times a day.
Any idea how to start troubleshooting the problem? It looks like the logcat data only has information from the current boot so I can't find info about whatever happened before the reboots... I'd like to see some logs before I factory reset.
Thanks !

Overcook0708 maybe the best way to get logs would be to connect the phone to a computer and run logcat and wait until the phone resets and hope the logs have something helpful.

Just have to add that using ADB on a "production" device is not recommended. I wouldn't suggest it in most cases but since you're having this strange issue and may factory reset anyway, in my opinion it makes sense to do so in this case.

Ok thanks I might try that, it's a long shot though.

Anybody else has (had) this with GOS ? There are a few reports on reddit which seem to be hardware related..

I'm surprised though, there really isn't a log on the device with crashes from previous bootups ? Seems strange!
