Warning to those WITHOUT a rebooting problem on Verizon before update

[ut_jd]

Just wanted to post a thread for those who have had perfectly working 8x phones on Verizon, myself and a some others in threads have started experiencing reboots for the first time after Today's OS Portico update. You may want to hold off for a bit and see how things work out for all of us.

Mine was fine before and is fine after.

 

[Bob Brown2]

Me too. Fine before and after.

My 8X didn't reboot before the update and so far today it hasn't. Hopefully it will be as good after the update as it was before.

Mine was fine before and is fine after.

Ditto

I had a few right after, now it's been a few hours since my last reboot. Hopefully it was a temporary thing, but what makes me nervous are some of the other people in the other threads discussing similar occurrences to mine. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

I had no problems before the update and I haven't had any problems after the update. There do seem to be a lot of threads and posts about the reboot problem, but it sounds like it's a small percentage compared to those that have no problems.

No reboot before or after portico.

 

[Brad Peters]

Had no problem before, rebootinig 1-2 times an hour now. How can I go back?

No problems before...no problems after. HTC 8X, Verizon.

I had issues with the 8X I picked up on lauch day -- at least 1 reboot every hour. I swapped it at the local Verizon store after a week, and have not had a single reboot since. The only difference I have noticed with Portico (other than what has been advertised) is GREATLY improved battery life when the HTC app is also removed.

2 months before Portico no reboots. Three days after no reboots. Thankfull my phone has worked great since the day I got it!

I have had about five reboots since portico update on Verizon. I had never had one before the update. I'm a lot ticked off.

The good news is this may pass. I had some initial reboot problems for the first time after installing Portico, but now they have passed. (knock on wood) I have not had a reboot in a couple days now.

Yep same here. After first few hours of installing Portico, I had a reboot here and there and have not had the problem again yet

Had one 'morning after' reboot then another one a day later.
But what is worse than a random reboot? Well, how about random screen freezes during (ringtone selection, screen icon move, swiping to apps, in settings)

We've 3 8x's in the family. Two've been flawless before AMD after. One has had three freezes in the 5 days since updating. Keeping an eye on, hasn't been to annoying since two of the freezes were immediately when going in to settings right after the update. For the most part very happy with the update.
