Since the new update in August, my phone has been using battery power & overheating like crazy. I would venture a guess that the random restarts are from it overheating, to help save the battery, etc. I've powered it off & on to restart it. I've cleaned and scanned the files (I can't remember hiw to clear the cache). & I've looked to disable all-time running apps, but know I'm missing the cause of this.
Last time this happened, there was a quickish fix for it, but I don't remember what it was. Any help or advise would ve appreciated.
