I think I definitely have a hardware problem on my hands here with my iPhone X, I did a full restore and I’m officially screwed because now I can’t restore from the iTunes backup, as soon as I initiate the restore process in iTunes from my iMac, a message pops up saying the iphone couldn’t be restored because the iPhone was disconnected,( it is properly connected with a new lightning cable), is it safe to assume this is a hardware defect? I made a genius appt for today

After the full clean install the springboard crash and iPhone restart happened again several minutes ago, it is labeled as “panic-base” under the analytics submenu in the logs

I'd also try a different wire and different usb port on the computer. Or a different computer all together just to see.
Make sure the bottom of your phone is clean of lint or dust where the lightning cable plugs in.

Regardless of that issue of not being able to restore the backup, the iPhone is fully restored to a fresh state and is still exhibiting the same problem with springboard crashing an alltogether odd behavior so I’m pretty sure there is something wrong with the hardware.

I agree on that.
I was just saying about the message itunes was giving you that itunes could not restore the phone.
So did you restore the phone with itunes or not?

yes i restored it and had the same problems occurring even with a fresh install, anyways, the apple genius i visited today at the apple store here in New York replaced my iPhone X with a new one, I just got home and restored my latest iTunes encrypted backup onto the new iPhone X, hope all goes well with this one, i really hope iOS 11.2 comes out sooner than later as it seems the current version of iOS 11 is riddled with bugs that affect performance.

What if this is app related? Some apps are not updated for the X yet. Do you think they'd cause resprings, crashes or reboots?

Edit: It seems for some, it's hardware. I wonder which logs could tell you the difference?
 
Ok, I will throw this out there....I have been having this problem since ios 11 came out using a 7 Plus, 8 Plus and now X. It seems from my observation and looking at logs that there is a memory leak in notifications. Do me a favor, please delete all notifications once a day and let me know if the random resprings stop. I almost guarantee they will.

Thanks for the reply! Really interesting to note this...I will definitely give it a try.

is your behavior similar to my wife's iPhone X:

My wife had her iPhone X charging on the Belkin wireless charger...she tapped on the screen to wake it up...it woke up but then immediately went to the Apple logo for a brief second...then came back to the lock screen.

I wonder if the wireless charging had anything to do with it.

Logs say “system memory reset” or does yours say something else?

It is similar with random springboard restarts through out the day. Absolutely a memory leak in notifications. I have had this issue on all devices since iOS 11

I really appreciate your response and details. I'm not trying to be annoying, i'm just asking out of curiosity...do your logs say "system memory reset"
I'm intrigued by this kind of stuff

Yes they do. I was having the issue this morning and cleared notifications and the resprininging stopped immediately. But they will be back if they don't get cleared.
 
just to add this the way we know that it respring is by checking the battery if the usage is empty after a full charge then it respring right?
That's a great question...I'm actually not sure if a respring will clear out the battery statistics or if only a full reboot does
