If the problem persists, go back to the stock recovery menu and perform a factory reset. After a couple minutes the process starts over again all by itself. It has been sitting here on my desk doing this for about 45 minutes now. Looks like I was able to experience Marshmallow for about a day, going to have to head back to the Nexus 6 and get a hold of Moto.

So when it says hanging up I can’t really do anything else. It lets me back to the home screen but I can’t open anything. I turned it off and when it came back on it was optimizing. Very frustrating while driving and the first time it happened by wife thought something was wrong because she couldn’t get through. I need to do a factory reset because i’m also having wifi connection issues but I just haven’t had a good time to do it. I would first try to Wipe the cache partition and reboot and see if that clears the issue.

None of the solutions offered seem to apply to my situation. This is a new problem for me as I have previously had no difficulty connecting to my PC transferring files, especially music files. Since 5.0.1 my phone has been rebooting randomly, numerous times throughout the day. I just downloaded 5.1 and it still reboots but now every so often after it reboots, it will say “Android is Starting… Optimizing app # of #. Formatted/Cleared all data and started fresh with the unlocked boot loader.

These, like many other errors, mostly started occurring after the upgrade to Oreo 8.0. It seems that even the Android One devices are subjective to software-inflicted issues. Actually this has happened on ALL Androids since the release of Ice Cream Sandwich as the OS Optimizes ALL apps, Photos, Music, Pictures etc… 1 trick to eliminate this is to offload your pics, music, videos etc… You can remove the Apps as well, but if you use them you will lose any stored data and settings so I would leave the apps on it.

Now, one would assume that the stock Android experience on Moto X4 won’t have any issues with the OS itself. Sadly, that’s not the case for some users, as they frequently experienced Google Play Services crashing. Boot your device in a Safe mode and test the speaker both with media files and in calls. Don’t use your handset while charging. Moto X4 has the Turbo Charging option and, besides a faster charging, it often can get your phone quite hot. Tap 7 times in succession on the Build number to unlock the Developer options.

Happened 2 times in a row so something must be wrong.. Another thing, I can’t access TWRP every time, sometimes it skips and boots directly.. I get the optimization every now and then, but not every time I reboot. If wiping the cache partition doesn’t resolve the issue, I would try a full factory data reset. You would do this by following the same steps that Kate outlined but then choosing the factory reset options instead of the wipe cache option. I have a nexus 5 that I was preparing to hand down to my wife.

That happens when you switch from the Dalvik runtime to ART . Sounds like your lollipop download is fucking things up. I’d wipe that cache and factory reset that beast. In case of a rapid and unexplained battery drain, an app may be the cause.

Press and hold Power and Volume Down for a couple of seconds and then release. Tap the entry for the app and you’ll see options to clear the cache or clear data. Here’s how to clear the cache on the Moto shobade blog X . Now, if the overheating isn’t as common, the issues with the fingerprint scanner spread like a plague. Lots of users experienced slow or even unresponsive fingerprint reader after the update.
