Bug Description
Unity8/UI freezes sometimes on BQ Aquaris E4.5, happened three times since I got my phone and it seems that it always happens while browsing through open applications in the overview (the application "roll"). I am attaching the apport log for Unity8. The phone is fully up to date.

I waited for about a minute or so and it didnt recover. Yes there is a Unity 8 .crash file in /var/crash, I can send it if you need it. I checked all Whoopsie logs in /var/log/upstart but didnt find any OOPS that seems to be related to Unity 8, I found only one OOPS instance and it seems to be related to Gallery:

Had another freeze minutes ago, this time Camera blacked out, tried to swipe it away but the phone froze. No crash files in /var/crash and no OOPS instances in whoopsie which is kind of strange as the phone froze. Hope that 15.04 image will fix this, this is the fourth freeze I had since I got the phone.

This continued with OTA-4 too but now its worse in a way, previously Unity 8 freeze would simply reboot Unity 8 after a while, now the phone needs to be powered off and on to resolve Unity 8 freeze. I am attaching Unity 8 log.

Does it recover after a few minutes (which would suggest it's crashing) or does it stay frozen permanently?
Can you please check in /var/crash/ if there's unity8-related .crash files, and if so, see in /var/log/ upstart/ whoopsie. log if there are OOPS ids reported for them?
