    try rebooting into recovery and wiping cache....
    turn the phone off... hold power and home till the android dude comes up...
    if your on gingerbread: press both volume buttons... then use volume down to scroll to wipe cache partition and select with power.. then reboot
    if your on froyo: press the search key... then use the volume buttons to scroll down to wipe cache partition and select with the camera button then reboot

    and... as far as a time... i don't know of a time frame... but... i'd just do it when things start acting up... it will help keep your phone running good..

    My phone would randomly reboot itself when playing a game or use an app of any sort and i touched the volume button. This was when i was on the TBH 602 update. Hasn't happen since going back to 596.

    Maybe this:

    While I'm usually 100% against automated task killers, the X requires one to work around this bug. Hopefully an update will fix this, but for now downloading a "memory manager" app and setting it to "mild" does the trick. See here: https://supportforums.motorola.com/m.../458810#458810
    Do you like uninstallable bloatware?
    It takes about 5 minutes to complain and it's kinda fun. Let's not be complacent!
    Contact Verizon (anonymous w/ fake name if you like)
    Chat/Email/Call Motorola (anonymous if you like)
    Vote for Google issue requires Google login. Just "star" it to vote.

    My 'droid X has been restarting after shutdown. It's stock, not rooted, Sys version 4.5.605.MB810.Verizon.en.US, Android version 2.3.3. I recently updated it (I do that whenever notified), and now it wants to restart after I tell it to shut down. I press the power button, get the shutdown/airline mode etc/ menu, and tell it to power off, and it does. Six minutes later (roughly), I get the powered on tone. Shutting down a second time usually works.

    Wifi and Bluetooth and GPS are off. I have very few apps -- most of what's running are bloatware things from V. I do have a app killer (Adv Task Killer Free), but it doesn't autorun. I have tried using it to shut down all apps prior to power off, but that hasn't helped.

    This only started after the latest update.
