Joined beta, now random quick-crashes. Not sure if error reports going through.

[TheBatt]

Ever since I joined the Android 12 Beta Program my phone, Galaxy S21 - TMobile, has random "flash crashes" or quick-crashes multiple times a day where over the course of roughly 8 seconds the phone will freeze, crash, show the carrier splash screen, and finally go to the lock screen environment.

This doesn't seem to be the same as a full reboot, as that takes much longer, yet effectively is the same in that after these quick-crashes my phones home environment has to load in everything as if I had rebooted.

Anyone else experiencing these events? How do I know my error reports are going through? Can I leave the beta program easily? Is this going to be fixed anytime soon?

Thank you,

Have you tried clearing cache on system level?

[TheBatt]

Yes, to no effect. Just now had another flash-crash.

This has been happening since beta 1 for me. I've cleared cache and nothing seems to fix. I think it is specific apps that cause this. It frequently happens when I'm using YouTube.

Have you updated to beta 2?
I've had similar problems try to watch videos in Chrome browser on beta 1, I would get constant crashes until the phone rebooted itself. But I haven't had that issue since updating to beta 2

I only joined the beta after beta 2 released. There is no consistency to the crashes. Neither timing, specific apps, or seemingly anything. It is starting to get really annoying.

I have a post in Tips, "Apps crashing on your beta - try this" ...

Give it a go if you haven't already - might cure some of the crashes and reboots.

Has not worked.

I have tried this to no avail, as well as the "Repair Apps" option. Still experiencing frequent crashes.
