I have an S7 (yes I know it’s old) I still like it and it works - but - something happens about once or twice a month and it starts hanging up whenever a phone call connects and/or an app will get super laggy.
Anyway, reboot fixes it (so far) and nothing else I’ve tried does.
There’s definitely something with these older phones that is like a slow leak and the simple, easy, lasts for weeks fix is to just take 2 minutes for a full “turn it off and back on again”
Plus the overheating when something gets stuck doing a background thing. Reboot reboot.
I plan to use this phone until it dies, reboot stops fixing things, or needed apps are no longer working/supported.
Slack no longer works/supported, but that one I’m just like “oh, noooo” However I expect ones I actually need to start falling off and I’ll be lucky to get a couple more years of use.
My meandering point, some of us are still using Android phones where reboot helps a lot
Omg, it’s an inside-joke at our company now.
Anytime something happens on a server that’s been running great for years, like a hard drive going bad or the time one literally caught on fire…
98% of the time it is selinux that is the reason it is doing weird things after the main fix because selinux changed a setting on the reboot.
“Have you checked selinux?” is the go to question whenever anything breaks now, even if it’s not a computer.
