I have managed to stay on the old bootloader, and have tried about 4 ROMs now with full wipes (data + system) before flashing, and have freezing and crashing issues with all of them. I have tried:
- Omega (x2)
- Foxhound
- Echoe
- Goldeneye
They all work fine for the most part, but on average once a day either the phone will reboot on me, or things will start to get crashy (whether it's the framework (eg I start having trouble pulling down the notification bar), or an app will freeze). If I reboot things work well again for a while, but within the next 24-48 hours something will go wrong again.
Having tried so many ROMs, all with full wipes I'm starting to wonder if it's because I'm still on the old bootloader.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? I never had it with the 4.2.2 ROMs.

Try to Update your recovery mate. Ex. Philz or twrp. Old bootloader rocks so keep it that way. Have a nice day.

thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't help. I was on a 2 month old version of PhilZ, i upgraded to the latest, and then a few hours later the screen wouldn't turn on, had to force a reboot by holding down the power button.

I've experimented today with the leaked XWKF1 build from samfirmware.com! After a few hours I realized that I've got a (for me serious) bug as well:
Every time I wanted to do a power off (shut down), the phone immediately restarts itself. Tried everything to get rid of this: Reflash with or without repartition, factory reset, rooting, using ZSKF1 kernel, CWM4.0.0.2, ...
Even after pulling the battery out: As soon as I put the battery back in the phone booted up immediately.
At this time I began to fear a hardware fault, luckily after going back to Liteningv1-3 power off works as intended again...
So, why I'm writing this here:
If anybody encounters the same: Just flash back your old rom and you will be fine again.
And: Can somebody explain this?
I do not have this problem with KF1

Thx for your feedback!
I'm almost sure most people won't have that problem, otherwise there should be quite a few reports till now...
I've had that issue before, on KE7 and my o2 stock ROM. I never could figure out what caused it, but battery pulling usually fixed it (at least good for a few power downs)
Might be that you have an alarm set in the next days.
just flashed to the kf1 stock and don't have the problem
I think when you are on a custom rom and go to stock, you might encounter weird quirks like this. Since the stock roms are non-wipe, it may leave remnants of your custom rom. Might be better to try a full factory reset and wipe cache/dalvik from recovery before flashing if you are okay with losing all data to see if that stops the reboot issue. Its not always necessary but I have had some weird problems in the past.
Either that or just wait for Litepro to come out with a KF1 version or another version in the near future. I think thats what I'll do
+10 for a wipe .

Hey guys. I have a very interesting situation happening with a VZW Galaxy Tab 7.1 that I bought from someone (I own a business buying/selling/trading cellphones and tablets)..
As soon as you boot it up, every app starts to force close!
If you sit there long enough and accept them all, you can actually use it a little bit. Apps keep FCing as you play with it, though.
The only noticeable thing is that the wallpaper always stays the same. It was 2.3.4 (I believe) when I got it, but I've tried flashing stock ROMs and the Galaxy Cubed 3 ROM through Heimdall, but that wallpaper ALWAYS stays there!
I just flashed the Galaxy Cubed 3 ROM on there 20mins ago, and everything switched over (the look, the battery icon, notification bar, window animations) EXCEPT that wallpaper (which ironically is of B.I.G.) and the FC issues.
I read somewhere about JTAG or something, but it boots fine, just having software issues.
PLEASE, if anyone knows anything about this issue, I need to sell this thing so I can make some money =) Thanks in advance for the help!
im in the exact same boat with a customers tablet. ive tried everything. takes forever to boot and factory reset does nothing. 4 installed apps never uninstall either.
Do you have custom recovery installed? After flashing with Heimdall, enter custom recovery and wipe data and cache. Reboot. No more issues.
I can't find a way to get custom recovery to flash. I've tried every walkthrough. There's no explanation as to why factory reset/wipe doesn't work
Ended up "solving" this by doing a stock restore via Odin, after which TouchWiz would never load an icon (crash loop). Reinstalled TWRP via Odin, then flashed ViSiON X N3 via TWRP.

Morning guys,
I've had some reboots lately and a weird situation last week where I had to do operating system surgery to get the thing to boot at all.... HOWEVER things were going quite well for some time, and it's been rooted and non-stock for months.
Nevertheless I woke up this morning and it was off, I figured the battery had died so I swapped batteries... It boots, it gets to the launcher and it loads the app icons then freezes and reboots... over and over again.
edit: to be clear, as soon as the slider bar touches the right-hand side the phone freezes, the vibration holds for several seconds, and then the device reboots. obviously not what one expects from this operation (having done it before). I was able to wipe the Cache separately... trying to wipe the Dalvik cache all by itself in an advanced wipe does this reboot thing.
OK I said, i will just clear and reflash this.
Going into TWRP, attempting to do a factory reset wipe just freezes, buzzes, and reboots immediately (to the not working OS)... in order to make this all stop I pull the battery, because now the button on the side won't seem to do a hardware poweroff for anything. Just ends up resetting the current reboot.
--
Any advice would be helpful now. I was just going to say forget it and grab the tiniest ROM i could find and ride it out until I upgrade the device, but now I'm just concerned with getting it active. The rebooting in recovery when trying to do a wipe does not make me feel too great. First and only problem I've had with android roms.
Thanks,
Chris
I've been getting reboots semi randomly for the last week or two and I was wondering if I could get some help on trying to figure out why.
Going back two weeks ago I was having some pretty poor battery life compared to some other users so I tried to do a full purge and restart. I went through the file manager on twrp and deleted any folder for any app that I wasn't using in a possibly misguided attempt to curb any file conflicts. After I did this I did a fresh install of cataclysm and Franco. After running into some reboots I tried with Kylo kernel and had the same issue. I then tried full wipe with Ubermallow and Kylo and had the same issue. Then I did a full lock, unlock, flash stock, root and recovery, and fresh install of chroma and Franco aaaaaand it still reboots.
I've had reboots randomly while listening to music but only 3-5 of them and in every install I've done I've had the same two apps do it. Starbucks app will reboot when using auto fill to log in, either through swiftkey or last pass, and Lyft will reboot the phone seemingly randomly.
What I want to know is whether or not this could be a hardware issue and if not how to get this to stop or if anyone else has had the same issue. It's seems so random yet specific and it's happened on so many different installs that I have no idea. I have been rooting my phones since the OG Droid so I have a pretty good idea of what I'm doing but I have never had an issue like this that lasts through so many installs of so many different things.

What about complete stock ROM (official firmware + kernel)? OR CyanogenMOD?
If your phone fine with stock or CM so it s the ROM/Kernel bug u installed and need to report to its developer
:good:
hey guys, today i bought a used NOTE 4 for my mother, and when i checked the version it was 6.0.1...so i wiped everything and restarted the phone to get the best performance....but the phone lags and freezes a lot, especially in the camera, and it keep restarting all the time....what should i do? should i try to flash another FW through ODIN?
You mean you used the Factory reset option? That's not a full wipe, just resetting stuffs. And yes, you know the answer, wipe everything from a custom recovery, then flash stock MM ROM (always latest) via Odin. Earlier versions did have a reboot problem though, and lags here and there, but that's expected, but the last release, PE1, has got rid of all those problems, its a very good release already, and I am sure upcoming releases will only make it better. There are no major bugs at all, I don't even find any minor bugs except the need for a separate app to clear default apps selection.
Best of luck.

the phone is stock, it has the stock recovery, and i have the PE1 version, the exact name is "MMB29M.N910FXXU1DPE1"...and still got a lot of lag, freeze and rebooting.....is there another version?
EDIT: ok, so i flashed another MM through odin ( first time it gave me a fail) and then done a factory reset, now it's so much better, maybe not as smooth as my S6 but really fast and smooth enough...thanks for the help
EDIT: today the phone started to shutdown completly....not reboot....and you need to press the power button 10 seconds to reboot it or turn it on...is there any advice?
Guys . Ib tead the whole thread over last few day had wake lovk runnimg last couple weeks. Lastnight used kies for reset and it crashed half way.
I then used odin 307 and went back to stock 501

All apps running aok no crashing freezing no wakelock .. its asking for another 601 update. Im gonna hold back
Hope this helps .. will post agian in gew days with any updates
Good luck !!
Just download and install Wake Lock from Google Play Store. I had the same problem and more. Once I installed Wake Lock (on a fresh install from Android 5 up to all the 6.0..1 builds) phone doesn't shut off or freeze. Most importantly no more Boot Loops..
