    Just turn off the Wifi

    there is a bug, use data and wait for an update

    Best

    I did turn off my wifi and wifi scanning for location services and it's working for 24hours with no restarts.

    Waiting for an update.

    Same issue here with Duo 1. It keeps trying to restart then factory reset. I can boot back to Android with try again option, but will try to factory reset again after some time periodically. Something definitely broken with last update.

    I have the bug on my Duo 1 too.

    I found it crashes when I have both my VPN and Wi-Fi turned on. Otherwise it's OK.

    Do you have a VPN?

    VPN + Wi-Fi = crashes

    VPN + mobile data = ok

    No VPN + Wi-Fi = ok

    Yours may be be different.

    I hope they send a patch soon.

    Good luck.
