[LUG] OT : Android phone crashing

[Martijn Grooten <dcglug@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Apologies for this being slightly off-topic, but then, Android is 
Linux-based and a solution that would point me to helpful error logs would 
be a good start.

I have had an HTC Desire C since December. It's a nice little phone, that 
I'm quite pleased it.

Except it crashes. A lot. The screen goes black and nothing happens - 
though I've become suspicious something is still happening as it has been 
sending out a wi-fi signal in this state, and the battery seems to be in 
use.

Sometimes it then reboots itself, at other times I have to remove the 
battery to reboot it.

But in either case, there is an alert

"Service Update: there is a new configuration"

which I thought would be a good place to start my search. Except that 
there are no relevant hits on Google.

I've spoken to Vodafone about this. They thought it may have been related 
to the SIM card and sent me a new one, but that didn't solve the problem.

Any thoughts?

Martijn.
