Hey guys, my friends galaxy stopped working all of the sudden, so I tried using odin 3 to reflash the firmware since doing a software reset wasn't doing anything. I've tried using a couple of version and I keep getting the same result. Once Odin says it passed, the Samsung Galaxy S screen keeps flashing on and off every few seconds.
Any ideas on how to fix this? I've tried searching the forum with nothing that has helped so far
ive got this problem too. anyone that can help?
Just bought a new S4 GT-I9505, for some reason it just randomly reboots! It did it 5 times in 10 hours. I tried resetting it to factory in case the apps I had installed were causing it. I don't think they were because as soon as it switched on again after being reset it rebooted after about 5 minutes.
Any ideas?
Could it just be firmware related and I have to wait for an update? Or is it hardware?

Do you have a microSD card in the device? If so, what kind?
Are your SIM-card properly placed into the device?
It's a 8gb San disk ultra micro sd and I have just removed and inserted it and my sim. Both are fitted correctly.
Anyone?
I'm assuming you are running stock (not rooted etc). Are you using the latest firmware? Have you checked for a system update?

Stock, yes. I actually restored through kies so am fully up to date. Checked for an ota to be on the safe side though and nothing.
It has only rebooted once since 9am this morning so it's improved on yesterday!
I had the exact same problem with my s3.
New or of box it rebooted randomly and always when
i stayed the programs first time.
I returned it and got a new. That is what i recommend.
Same thing happens to me.

Are you sending yours back?
if it stays on download mode try to flash a fresh stock firmware for i9505.. you can it from samfirmware.com.. it could help if it is due to a software issue,, otherwise its going to be a hardware issue..
did you try "wipe cache partition"?? sometimes it fixes some problem if it does not return, that s what i did with my reboot problem while playing video.
I'm having the same problem I cleaned cache several times and installed the cmw recovery again. Any ideas?
Thanks
Rooted devices
Have a read HERE - Maybe of some use for those with rooted devices :fingers-crossed:
it has been a few months that i upgrade my n9005 to android 5.0 via odin. i have notice that the wifi is always on shown on batt stats page there i already unticked google scanning it still appears so i did an factory reset and untick again, but then after few weeks the problem came again showing wifi always on and the i did another factory reset using recovery mode, same thing happened after a few weeks its starting again. anyone can help me?
Hey guys,
My wifes Tab 4 recently did the OTA update to Lollipop (5.0.1) and has been having a problem ever since. After being in use for a few minutes after the update it suddenly locked up and rebooted itself. Thought nothing of it at first, but then it did it again, and now randomly reboots all the time, sometimes after only a minute of use. I've tried clearing the cache partition and factory reset, neither gave any improvement. Then i figured maybe the OTA download was the probblem so i flashed it back to Kitkat using Odin and all worked fine again for a few days. I turned off the OTA update checke and she was perfectly happy with it again.......
......until it downloaded the update all over again.
Before allowing it to update again i connected it to the PC and did the update via Kies instead. All seemed to be fine for about 5 minutes and then started rebooting. Again, cleared cache and factory reset. Again no improvement.
Then tried flashing the update via Odin again. Still no improvement.
I'm drawing a blank on this one. I've tried everything I can think of and still not been able to solve this one. The only thing i've been able to figure out so far is that for whatever reason it doesn'T randomly reboot if its connected to the PC via USB...............
Anyone got any ideas how to sort this?? Samsung have offered to take it in for repair and I'Ve been offered a refund from the retailer, but I'd rather avoid those options if possible.
Thanks!
I have the same problem and nobody Knows. I will back to kitkat. let me know if you fixed. sorry for my english im cuban.
Hi to everyone,
I have some problems with my SM-N9005 I will explain everything from beginning what I did so you can have a clear picture. I had stock 4.4.2 rom when I bought my phone but I am a app freak so I had to do root actually my friend did it using odin because I am not so good with android knowledge. That was almost 2 years ago and with 4.4.2 I had no problems. Using camera, recording, wifi everything worked great. I have fastest class San Disk 64 GB memory card and I set camera video to save directly on it and it worked without any problems. This past month my phone started to be slow because of 2 years junk and using so I decided to put latest custom rom (I think 5.1.x something) but my friend was afraid if we dont put good rom that we will brick my phone so he told me to do a reset factory defaults and the phone will be unrooted and then go to software update option and update it to 5.0. I couldn't do that because it reported error phone changed or something like it was rooted but it was not. Lucky for me before root we did cwm backup of my phone so my friend restored backup and then we tried again software update again but still same error phone is changed (I was hundred precent sure that phone is unrooted but still no luck). Then we decided to install Kies and do firmware upgrade from options tab and it worked. It was 1.3 Gb update and kies showed that it is 5.0 and last firmware version for note 3. So I am using phone for few days now but I noticed few problems. Everytime I restart phone it forgets all wifi passwords and also when I come home I meen when I change ruter same story. Today I wanted to talk a picture and when I took a picture and go to gallery to see it (from camera up left corner see last image) phone restarted and when I wanted to record a video it said recording failed and then it restarts every time.Everything else is working great, phone is fast,maybe battery drains faster than on 4.4.2 but it is not a big problem for me. Sorry for my english if I have some mistakes. Can you help me please with these 2 issues?
??
Anyone please?
Did you try with a factory reset ?https://www.androidpit.com/factory-reset-note-3
You could possibly try flashing the stock android 5.0 with odin, that should be the best way of making sure everything is installed properly unless anyone thinks that would be a bad idea.

I tried factory reset and same story, ok I will try with odin I will go to see my friend in few days and then I will post results
So I solved it by:
Using Odin 3.11.1
I have already tried Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flashed the latest stock Lolipop or older lollipop with ODin and nothing solved the problem.
So I tried to flash the latest stock lolipop with Odin and marking checked (Auto Reboot , F. Reset Time , Phone EFS clear, Phone Bootloader update).
I suspect that the Phone EFS clear did the trick. It's function is related to the modem and radio of the phone. And clearly the modem has a problem here.
I hope this will help anybody out there having this issue.
This problem happened after trying to flash lollipop using FlashFire app to reserve the root that I had in my previos Android KK 4.4.2.
