Android 4.0-powered Galaxy Nexus suffering from bug that causes random reboots

Samsung's flagship Android handset the Galaxy Nexus has had a bumpy ride since it arrived on store shelves.

We're sure you all remember the strange volume-changing bug that left the Android 4.0-powered phone "almost unusable" back in November.

Now, several Nexus users are reporting an all-new issue that is causing their devices to reboot at random intervals while playing music, tapping away at a game, and performing other normal tasks.

Bugging me

This pesky new bug is said to be relatively widespread, though the majority of current reports are coming from owners of the phone's GSM-based model.

Unfortunately, the cause of this issue is currently unknown, but Google is aware of the situation and is actively investigating it.

Fingers crossed for a quick fix.
