Lumia 620 running slow as heck and randomly restarting

[AwesomeLewis24]

Hello, so recently my Lumia 620 runs extremely slow from time to time. Like after a period of inactivity on the lock screen, when unlocked it will run very slowly up until the point where I will have to do a battery pull to get it to run normal again. As well as that, I've been noticing recently that my Lumia will restart itself randomly. I will be on my laptop for example and out of the corner of my eye I can see the Nokia logo on my screen - indicating that it is turning on. I have tried a soft reset but nothing else as of yet. Any ideas?

I'd check for a dodgy app being installed and get rid. I've had no problems like that on my 620 for the past 18 months.

Got that kind of problem on my Lumia 720, hard reset only thing that worked... Also my recommendation!

Hard Reset, or if you like, go Inquisition on it's *** and delete every app until it starts working again

I'm having the same issue. A hard reset didn't work. any help with this would be appreciated

Same here, this phone is slow as hell and extremely buggy. It has always been since I bought it, whatever WP version or firmware installed.
I tried hard-resetting, send it back to Nokia (RMA), still slow .
I really consider changing phone.

My apps are well.. Official. Not sure if I want to hard reset. Could it possibly be because of the last phone update? I'm gonna wait until the next update and if it still continues after that then I will probably hard reset. Thanks to all the replies above so far ^^^^^

Actually I've learned that if you don't have Cyan but 8.1 there is a major performance issue with the 630 so... if you have it, maybe that's why.

Nah, I don't have the 630. I mean, at times (especially after a battery pull) the device is fast and runs as normal, but it's only after a period of inactivity whilst locked that it will randomly restart.

Anyways, my Lumia has downloaded the new update. I'm not getting my hopes up but I do hope that this will sort it out. I'll report back to you guys on whatever happens! :grin:

Just a quick update... Seems like my phone's been running alright as of now - so I would say the update has kinda fixed it. I cant say for sure, but hopefully this has fixed it and I wont get it back down along the line. Thanks for the replies!

if your phone has a warranty, you can always ask for replacement from your local store
