The Nexus 4 has been acting up a lot, but nothing like this week-end. I moved my oldest from our cabin next door to Northern Iowa with a 26 foot UHaul truck this week-end. Once I got into Iowa, Google Navigation treated me to five hours of "take 207th street, continue for 6 miles, turn right on to something street, continue for four miles, turn right on to something else street, continue for 11 miles, etc. sic nauseum). Incredibly, some of these "streets" I was told to take were dirt roads in horrible condition! Around midnight, Google navigation said, "In two miles..." and then nothing. I look down at the phone and it's rebooting. And it continues to reboot for the next 10 minutes. I have no idea where I am. I stop. Power off, Power on and ... continuing to boot for another 10 minutes. Happily I had someone following me with a Nexus 6P that didn't hork up and we made it to our destination.
I'd decided I was going to get a new 32G iPhone ($400) when the Nexus finally died and this looked like the time. I left the Nexus plugged in overnight and when i woke, the little colored dots were still swirling (still rebooting IOW). I futzed with it for a few hours and finally got it back, so the SE can wait.
Having had to set up MobileIron for our iPhone deployment (and thus having had to become at least passingly familiar with Apple phones), once I do switch to iOS, there's nothing I can ever imagine that will make me ever use an Android phone again.
