[Q] galaxy S4 random reboots

Anyone else had this / any ideas - my s4 randomly reboots. Can sometimes be when I'm using it or other times when it is sitting idle.

yup, i had this after running a custom rom for a few days. i'm sure it wasn't the rom though, i restored back to stock last night just in case, we'll see.

However, in the future, please also post your ROM, kernel, etc.
For example, having your phone OC might result in such random reboots...

I didn't change the kernel and I don't want to name the ROM because I'm sure it's not its fault - it was fine for a few days with plenty of reboots and activity/usage. Sounds like others on stock have the same problem (not necessarily related to the camera issue), so I've gone back to my stock backup and will see what transpires.

I understand you, but it is not like blaming the ROM creator. Is that you might have discovered a bug, and you can help to get it solved.
personally, the first thing I would do is to make a factory reset. This is not the case for you any more... but however.
Good luck and please tell us got things go on...

Fair enough, it was slim bean build 6 on Verizon. I reverted to my stock twrp backup last night (10hrs ago) and been fine so far...

com.sec.app.MIPErrorNotifier running after restart

Another odd thing I am seeing since the new update, is every time I reboot, if I go into the task manager to see all my open applications... After about a minute or so, I notice there is an app in there that says MIPerroractivity, when I click app info it says it is an app called com.sec.app.MIPErrorNotifier. Why is this automatically open like an app in my task manager when I reboot? Any ody else seeing this?

Same here. Not sure what this is, and if I should just freeze it using Titanium backup. Searched google and the first hit was this post
One of the subsequent posts indicates that this app existed on the S3 late last year too - http://forums.androidcentral.com/sp...ng-galaxy-s3-sprint-version-stock-rooted.html

Same here! I'm wondering if we rename it to .bak at the end if that will affect anything... anyone willing to test that lol?

QUESTION: Is everyone here running the latest KT Kernel. Bc when I reverted back to the MF9 kernel, I didn't get that anymore...

I am bone stock, haven't even rooted it yet. First time I haven't rooted a phone right out of the gate.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

Same here just updated this morning. Bone stock and not rooted. Shows up after every reboot.
I did the update myself not via ota. Did everyone else here do it that way? Or did you receive the update via ota?
Maybe its somehow related to the way sprint is rolling out the update?

Happy I found this thread! Thought it was only me. I flashed the MF9 zip, and I'm using KT kernel.
The thing running doesn't really bother me, I'd just like to know what it's for. I kill it every time I reboot anyway

Should I have? I used Odin to get to stock MDL, then flashed the MF9 zip in recovery. Nothing else. Why would I need to flash the modem if the modem is in the OTA?

Did the same thing.

I also get this PITA notice.
Only thing I have been able to find so far is it appears to have something to do with "Mobile IP ERRor".
I will not claim to know what this means.
I have noticed that I have no cell service while roaming at home anymore.
Hopefully, this is because I am slightly (1/4 mile) outside of the official roaming service area.
I am hoping I can reset the phone profile once I get back into Sprint's network later today.
I am also not sure if this is related to MY upgrading to MF9 using the manual ZIP from SD card method and not waiting for the official OTA update.

I already posted that I did the ota stock non rooted and it appears for me.

After a bit of review
Ok, so I've been doing a little testing this AM to see if I could get to the bottom of this error.
After rebooting, locking and unlocking a ton of times I've decided its related to wifi connecting on the initial boot.
After a while I started noticing a pattern in relation to the toast message that pops up when it initially connects to wifi and the error showing up.
To confirm my theory, I removed the local wifi at my office, and on reboot, no error.
I have zero clue on how to fix the issue, but just wanted to point any devs looking into this in the right direction.
Additional notes, I'm stock, not rooted, and updated via the sdcard method.

I believe you are absolutely correct in your assumption. I can replicate this as you say. Also, I am completely stock, unrooted and gained the update via OTA.

I did crawrj mf9 update for rooted mf9 and not haveing the issues only had to clear my google account (data) check out his thread maybe there that ll help yall

Has anyone totally deleted it (not freeze it, but DELETE IT) from system/apps ??

[Q] Xnote gps problems

Ok I have looked everywhere and tried many fixes including the AT&T fix (put me into a bootloop) and clean flashes... but nothing is working.
Here are all the steps that i have done.
I have a Bell note 3 that was rooted on JB. I sent it into repair after unrooting (it still said custom but i guess they overlooked that). When i got it back it was running KK official.
I rooted with autoroot and flashed X-note with Civz kernel and the wifi/nfc fix.
Now everything is running great and i still have knox 0x0 (which is good)
EXCEPT my GPS is not connecting. I am using GPS status and it will show that there are satellites to connect to and will take a really long time to connect, then it will drop everything and say that there are no sats to connect to...
I need my GPS and am willing to sponsor a beer+ for a working solution...
And is there anyone out there that has seen the same issue?
Thanks in advance

I rooted my note 3 with x-note! I was having trouble with the gps before and after rooting as a taxi driver it really is passing me off!

Try replacing the GPS config with this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=by.zatta.agps
It worked for me and I'm also using a Bell N800W8. My GPS behaved perfectly while on stock, stock rooted (with custom recovery) and at a point after flashing several roms it broke. Now it requires this app to work. I've also gone back to stock (knox 0x0) and couldn't get a lock.
Obviously it's a software issue I'm just unsure why flashing the stock firmware didn't fix it and a fix is required.
Good luck!

No offence taken
I posted there twice and it got buried within the hour and never got ansered...
Im a volunteer EMT and i rely on my GPS to get to emergencies, i needed a resolution ASAP.
I ended up just flashing vision-x n900w and now the first GPS fix after a reset can take up to a min (but it gets a fix which is an improvement)
But subsequent fixes take only a couple of seconds.... so i guess i have to live with that...
Thanks for the help (and i'm usually good with forums but i had to make an exception this time)

I have the same problem not running xnote or with at&t. I was rooted with xposed. Have tried restoring stock with odin but still doesn't work. I can run a AOSP rom and it works fine so not thinking its a hardware issue. I will start a new thread as this isn't specific to xnote.

SM-N9005 GPS wierd issue!!!! Works but doesnt work!!!!

Hi guys id love input on this one if anyone's got anything as it baffles and frustrates me...
I have a SM-N9005,
im signed upto galaxynote3root.com
my note 3 ran to perfection once rooted and updated to 4.4.2 va the polish rom that came out since im in UK and couldn't wait for the update hehe - still ran to perfection -
I then flashed a ROM from galaxynote3root.com (I now HATE that zedomax guy since he has not input or suggestions on the matter despite a courteously written email etc) it was "infamous ROM" (which is supposed to be for SM-N9005 but when installed all T-Mobile bloatware is on it and then model displayed in the about settings page says "SM-N900T") flashed it and installed trickster MOD, (didn't check or even think that the GPS didn't work at that point) I then set the voltage to offset -25 as instructed by zedomax for better battery life etc... anyway, my note 3 couldn't really handle the change in voltages so I went back to stock (or what I thought was stock since I didn't check the default voltages before changing and I don't know what they are) after deciding... I actually hated the ROM and flash all the way back to stock
GPS NO LONGER works - ill explain exact symptoms etc
GPS icon flashes - notification displays "searching for GPS" and........... that's it.. forever.... never locks...... and whilst using the GPS and using google maps in this state it constantly says "GPS signal lost" - and that is literally it. I have flashed at least 5 different stock ROMS from different countries/carriers etc - nothing always exactly the same
NOW... here's the weird part!!!????
Once I flash the Infamous ROM back onto the phone - THE GPS works....... no idea how - but I feel that it doesn't QUIET work as well as it did before (takes a little longer to lock but still around 10 seconds) and the locator on google maps seems to drift a LITTLE where as before it would be perfection no drifting no nothing.
Does this rom use something else or some change in the conf files to supposedly make the GPS "better" but actually makes it worse!!?? lol
Being a techy myself and constantly plying with tech from waaaayyyy back this really frustrated me as clearly it cant be a hardware issue since it works on one ROM but not on stock (unless as I said the infamous ROM utilises a different method to lock GPS... which is NOT better and I don't like btw)
I sent the phone into O2 for repairs and since the knox and counters were tripped they sent back unrepaired stating they cant fix as the engineers found there had been "unauthorised rework" done on it
it has to be software right!!!???? but if that was true.... the stock ROM SHOULD work.... but they ALLL don't.. makes NO sense.
If anyone has any suggestions or input at all I would greatly appreciate.. potentially more!!

I would like to figure this one out too I'm on the Verizon note 3 SM-N900V stock 4.4.2 and the GPS sucks! It was perfect on 4.3 so I know it is definitely a software issue. This is the best phone I've ever had and the worst GPS. Hope we can find a fix because I rely on Google Maps a lot.

No. Just a reboot after I had used the app. As I said my gps would never lock even outside but after using g the app it's quick to lock. I got the tip from a forum but may not help you.

but for me.. not just GPS sucks... gps does not work categorically anytime ever lol... ONLNY on that infamous ROM I told you about..
hopefully otherwise ill have to do an insurance job on it! lol I definitely agree.... best phone ive ever had... did have the best GPS.. but I feel I may have done something to GPS chip whilst undervolting... but I say that then I remember... but no.. the GPS still works on that particular rom so it cant be that the GPS chip is fried... unless... like I said, that infamous ROM makes the GPS work in a different way.. I just don't know enough about it.... what I do know is that it DOES NOT make sense! lol

perhaps I didn't explain myself... its not because of the ROM update.... the GPS and everything was working to perfection on 4.3 and 4.4.2... it only stopped once id flashed the infamous ROM and then back tot he stock 4.4.2 roms.... now the only way to get GPS working is by flashing and using the infamous ROM
many thanks for your input though dude much appreciated

my friend.. all I can say is... lol... factory reset... lol.... umm yes... I did one....2....3..4,5,6,7,8,9 etc of those followed by 5,6,7,8 different stock roms etc (as stated in my original post)
so yeah... did that.. doesn't work
thanks for your suggestion though kind sir!!

What happened here is the same thing that happens when everyone installs the s5 port and when they revert to their stock rom they f*** up their GPS, since they initially installed a wrong firmware for their phone. Easiest way to solve this is to install that infamous ROM again and turn on your GPS. Then in recovery dirty flash stock note 3 rom (dirty flash... i mean don't do any wipes what so ever) and reboot. You might be able to boot it or basically go into bootloop. Then afterwhich do a factory reset in recovery again. Once booted up you should have your GPS back. There is another method here about flashing n9005 wifi/nfc and stuff files. I just can't find it. But do a search it will come out.

try this
go to recovery
full wipe ..(partition system , data, cache ) ..system partition needs to be wiped
if you are using philz then do a new rom wipe which also wipes system partition
reboot to download mode and odin flash stock samsung note 3 rom ( do it twice to make it 200% sure ..lol)
download gps status and reset ur agps data and download new data from the app

And apparently service centers have to prove that your rooting/flashing 'broke' the phone.
Maybe a grey area but apparently European legislation says so?
So threaten O2 with this?
Try GPS Status and in tools check/update agps.

Where's the step by step?

Huge problem need help

I flashed the Lollipop firmware on my note 4 (910G) and badly wanted to root. In the process of rooting i may have used the wrong CWM file. But i checked it doesnt seems so but i assume. Im not sure. Im not a noob (but not an expert) as i tinkered many phones so many times. But today things went wrong for the 1st time.
The issue is the calibration of the digitizer on my Note 4, its completely off, in some areas it doesnt work at all when using my fingers, but with the S-Pen it seems fine. Its impossible to use the phone, the gap is huge.
I re-installed the stock firmware it doesnt seems to install the stock recovery (Assuming its the recovery i flashed which caused this) hence didnt rectify.
I flashed the philz and twrp recoveries (Correct files) thinking having a working recovery would solve and that too did not help.
I flashed CM based ROM assuming it would make a difference, still no.
Please guys help fix this, and i really really hope its not hardware or triggered any chips to malfunction due to incorrect file flash. Pls help and advice what needs to be done to reverse this.
Thank you...

Flashing official stock firmware should revert your recovery back to standard. It did for me when I was using Cwm and reflashed 5.0.1 firmware.
try your device in safe mode to see if that changes anything. If not I'd recommend doing a complete wipe then reflashing the stock firmware.

No mate tried all that, makes no difference. Even in safe mode its still behaves the same. And installed stock firmware many times, also without battery too. No improvement. Even the stock recovery isn't installed, thats the biggest question i have in that process.

This problem has nothing to do with rooting or installing a custom recovery. Only when upgrading or downgrading firmwares the touchscreen firmware can sometimes bypass the update.
