You need to perform the tricks that we often provided to other users that has similar problem. Don't you worry, these procedures are safe and won't ruin or damage your phone.

  7. The phone will automatically restart once the cache and data are wiped out.
However, if the device still crashing after resetting the cache partition, then, move over to the next step.

Step 3: Perform a Reset
Remember, this method should be the last last resort that you can do if all procedures won't work on your phone. But before you can follow we suggest you to create first a backup because all your saved files and data in the internal storage will deleted. So, if this is just a software-related issue, then, this will surely fix it. Here's how you can do the method:
