How Do I Stop The Endless "App Optimization" Cycle?

My Elipsis 8 tablet is suffering from a bad case of "perpetual destructive app optimization".  Every time it is turned on, plugged in, or just left unattended for a while, it reboots itself, and starts an app optimization cycle.  This takes hours, since it apparently hangs up every time.  Once it eventually gets unwedged, some of the memory is now *gone*:  the amount of memory used and unused is lower than before.  It then repeats this, again, the next time it is turned off, plugged in, or left unattended.  Eventually it gets so low in memory that I need to do a factory reset, which merely restarts the cycle.  How do I fix this?

SARKIL11, having your tablet work for you properly is a must. We want to help you with that device. Is the tablet completely up to date with the latest software updates? https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-121222/

 

Also, when setting up the tablet after a factory reset are you using Google's Automatic Restore option? We ask because selecting that option can simply reload the issue, so not selecting that would be best.

Thank you.  I definitely did have the Restore function turned on ( it was on the list of things to do when I last sent in the device for maintenance ).  I turned it back off, and did another factory reset.  Its tough to say whether this has fixed it yet, though.  So far there is no discernable loss of memory, but it does still seem to want to reboot and app optimize any time it is plugged in for charging while turned on.

I will be monitoring it over the next several days, seeing whether memory loss starts showing up, and/or how aggressively it reboots itself.
