[Q] Strange N9005 problem - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear all,
I had a note 3 n9005 white which worked fine in the first 5 days. After that, it starting shutting down randomly. The next day, when i start the phone, the screen freezes after 2-3 touches and it shuts down after 5 secs. If you plug the charger, it keep rebooting but does not work past few touches. If I boot the phone in download mode or recovery, it work flawlessly for as much time as you want. Sometimes you cannot start the phone without removing and reinserting the battery. I tried safe mode, hard reset, cache clears etc etc but no avail
I even flashed leaked polish kitkat rom just to see what happens but the issue is the same. Is it a hardware issue or a software/kernel issue ? Please HELP

If it's doing it after a clean flash of new firmware then I'd say it is a hardware issue and you may want to return it and/or get it replaced.

Can you use this app Phone INFO to check for the validity?

try to flash compatible firmware of ur phone
download it from sammobile.com/firmwares.
flashing leak firmwares are not helping cause they seems to be beta and have lots of bug.
anyway there s some threads about random restarting note3 but ur situations is worse.
almost of them as i know take their phone for replacement and if u can do it as well.
if not, search for more stable firmware of course JB 4.3
:good:

If this is true:
"boot the phone in download mode or recovery, it work flawlessly for as much time as you want"
maybe I would lean towards software, but since you loaded leaked KK, you can't go back to factory and probably tripped Knox?, you don't have many options left, especially that you tried just about everything.
IMO loading leaked software on a broken phone was not a good idea, in your case I would try to go stock as much as possible, instead.

Me too, i had this problem several times with 4.3 and after wiping my telephone to install the new kit kat 4.4.2 (polish), i Also had freeze,black screen and non responding screen forcing me to reboot my phone.
I also have lines sometimes when i use my camera!

meanwhile, i have again flashed complete polish 4.4.2 with BL , AP, CSC , Modem and PIT File . IT flashed successfully but the problem still persists. No use . any more suggestion. I think now i cannot downgrade and should i try custom recovery with custom firmwares.
I case of hardware issue, i have no choice as N9005 is not officially launched in Pakistan.So no choice .
@joexda75, my screen also dithers and shows different colors some times on portions and some times it is flawless. So you and i have the same problem but my phone is not powering up and freezing after not more than 6 sec. Recovery and download mode works perfectly as i flashed the Polish ROM again via download mode and it worked flawlessly

Did you make an complete wipe of your Phone? Otherwise you have to contact Samsung.

It sounds like your phone is what we call boot looping mine showed the same symptoms as yours at the beginning and it would also come up with a messege saying that some process had unfortunately stopped working lol

it can be fixed using Mirek190's method just check your IMEI CERTI says pass when you type *#0011# into the keypad if it comes up with PASS then follow mirek190's method without flashing block 12 or block 13 here at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2567133

Careful using mireks method. It bricked berrgs note which is currently not working.

[Q] Please help - S4 Keeps Rebooting - VIDEO

Hello All
My Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505) keeps on freezing then rebooting in an unusual way.
The problem is intermittent, it would constantly happen in certain periods and happen less frequently in other periods. At the moment, i can beerly use my phone for 1 minute before it does it again and again. And in this minute apps are just crashing. I get the pop-up messages of applications crashing. I tap ok only for the same message to instantly reappear.
Unfortunately, the process com.android.systemui has stopped
Unfortunately the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped
The issue would happen when the phone is in sleep mode (screen turned off), while im using it, in safe mode or even when its rebooting or on the splash screen.
I am using the original battery and charger that came with the phone and never flashed or rooted my phone. I have however had to flash it couple of months ago after it bricked all by itself. I used one of the firmwares from www.samsung-updates.com
See this video to understand exactly what is happening

Please give me ideas/suggestions of what to do

1. It seems you recovered one image of one backup with the recovery.
2. SOLUTION: Reflash the firmware through ODIN. The latest for your phone is this one: HERE.

Try to flash firmware package with the latest version of ODIN and Sammy drivers, also use the original cable that came with the phone. Often, cables that aren't Samsung genuine fail to flash firmware.
If this doesn't solve your problem, then you might try a firmware reflash with PIT file. If nothing works, your processor (or motherboard) it's likely fried. Take it to a service centre

SM910F Note 4 5.1.1 Random Freezes and Restarts

Hello there xda.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM910F.
So what is happening to my phone is that whenever I am in any random app lets say reddit or even chrome for example. It will like freeze for a minute or two and then unfreeze.
In more extreme cases it will reboot.
So this happened randomly because I flashed a Stock unbloated 5.1.1 ROM from here back in december and everything was working smoothly and stuff. I had xposed installed and all my apps. Then in February it started with this random freeze/reboot. I had not installed anything else apart from what I had for the last 3 months.
So I restarted the phone, changed the battery and stuff to see whether that will fix it. However it didn't. So I formatted the phone (the soft type) just so I can install another ROM. So I tried another ROM, flashed the correct CP and BL and stuff and then just installed chrome and whatsapp. After an hour or two the same thing happened. So this time I factory reset he phone, like a complete wipe and I installed the unbloated ROM once again with few apps. Same thing happened...
So my last resort was to install Cyonagen Mod. After an hour or two same thing happened...
I don't know what is the problem. I read about some peoples phones emmc failing and thus the freezing, but I am not sure yet.
Please could you guys explain what I should do to fix this?
Thank in advance!
I have the same problem. Starting on mid january. I'm on stock 5.1.1 with root and twrp recovery
Tried backup and factory reset
I went back to stock after I factory reset the phone. And still had the same problems.
People say that its a hardware problem... So I guess I'll have to send it back to Samsung soon.
I think I tripped the knox. I just have to unroot and get it back once again to stock and send it back. I hope that they accept it.
i have the same problem. my model is SM-N910W8 and I bought it from 2nd hand, so no receipt and no prove of purchase.
can I still send it back to samsung to fix it?
same problem as you and now my phone died completely .
my phone was 4 months and he has not supported any longer he died naturally lol.
my operator gave me another free under warranty because the phone had a faulty motherboard and after several back galaxy note 4
This started happening to me a week or so ago and my phone just got stuck in a boot loop after it froze and rebooted. I'm on the latest stock firmware. Tried factory reset, reflashed stock firmware, nothing helps. It still reboots (sometimes it almost gets booted completely, other times it reboots after 2 seconds.
Just disable finger print. Yes that magic feature offered by Samsung is causing more hungry that happiness since S5

Many thanks. This was driving me mad for a few days, I had tried three different ROMS, completely wiping everything. I eventually went back to stock, which I'm still running and it was the same; it would run fine for a few hours and then start to lock up until eventually it would either reboot or stop responding and I'd have to pull the battery to restart it.
Just not selecting fingerprint security doesn't work, you have to force stop "Fingerprints" in Application Manager (All).
just do not setup the finger print lol. I was having those problemes too when I bought the note 4 until someone tell "do not setup the finger print" lol, not I'm a happy user.... I hope that android 6.0.1 solve the probleme

This should be normal because MarshMallow was just released so its buggy for everyone ?
exact same problems that i'm having. the phone has become unusable. i have flashed 5.01 and its working again, but now...google didn't even load my old apps. so i have a totally fresh phone,,,which is a p-is take. at least its working. i'll try 5.1.1 when i download it.
i sat and messed about for a few hours and it working mostly ive managed to get the apps updated and seems alot more stable still get the odd lag and slow load on apps but it's not usable i think my main probelm was the apps once they updated "which they where stuck on" its seems to have sorted a few of the issue's

i have tried to reset the phone 3 times aswell as a fresh install of the firmware 3 times same responce each time my phone seems to be going through stages of working fine not working fine and being unresponsive seems to be the fingerprint scanner crashing alot and also just freezing just typing on the handset
To coatsy101 :
Give it to Samsung authorized service centre. If your phone is under warranty, they will not charge you. No problem if they charge you if your phone is out of warranty. Do not flash any firmware by yourself. It will brick your phone by deleting its IMEI. Beware of this !!!. So give it to the Samsung authorized service centre in your country. Search in google and find out.
phone is totally mashed. it still freezes and lags , then reboots. works ok for a bit then,,,same thing.
i've never had this happen before. always got fixed by flashing firmware. but this is new to me...tried so many different firmware now...i just cant understand it.
might root and try a custom rom next see if that helps. (
well the closet samsung place is about 3+ hour drive so i wont be doing that. kris 3 is all ive been using to reinstall the marshmellow update and the 3 factory resets ive done ive gave up with it basicaly at work and sit for 5 to 10 minutes waiting for it to unlock somethimes ive disabled thh fingerprint scanner which has helped slightly but still u unuseble my head is battard with it
i've done numerous factory resets and tried different firmwares. it is the same, works for a few minutes then suddenly will freeze and come back after 30 seconds or so...or do a reboot. i've re-partioned nand wipe factory wipe cache wipe .
don't know what else to do. will root and run a custom rom as a last resort before smashing it and throwing it in the bin

I would recommend a factory reset and then a fresh install of the latest Marshmallow DBT (Build Date: May 3)

You have to use Odin 3.10 or 3.11
Turn On Developer Mode on your phone by going to Settings > About Device > Build Number > Tapping Build Number 7 times
Then go back to Settings, you'll see Developer Options now, click it and then check USB debugging
Switch off phone, then hold Volume Down, Home and Power at the same time, it'll ask if you wanna download OS, then press Volume Up
Unzip Marshmallow file, Run Odin on your PC, then connect phone, make sure it registers with Odin, it'll say "Added" means registered
Select the Unzipped Marshmallow file by checking AP and then pressing AP, don't touch anything else, wait for the selected file to be checked, the START at the bottom will be grayed out, but within seconds it will come back again, now press START
This will flash your phone with the selected Marshmallow file, wait until, ODIN says PASS with Green, now you can disconnect, phone will restart automatically.
DON'T PRESS ANY BUTTONS apart from AP and START when flashing

Note 4 hard brick which resolves on its own

Hi everyone
I own a galaxy note 4 n910g running 5.0.1 rooted and have installed TWRP
I have pretty much learned about rooting and everything i know from youtube and various other how to do posts
I have been facing a peculiar problem
I had over heating issues and i found that indexservice was the culprit and disabled it...did not have the issue again
I had emmc read failed error again and again - i disabled the facebook app - i did not receive the error again - i do not know how to explain that, but i feel that is an observation that i made
So now the real issue
I am unable to go into recovery mode.
If i restart the mobile the mobile behaves as if it is hard bricked- Literally no response at all
I keep pressing all the hard keys in different combinations, but nothing seems to work at all
Now Here is the interesting fact
I remove the battery for bout six hours and try restarting it - it works
But if i switch off my mobile or try to go into recovery mode - my phone just becomes a brick for about 8- 12 hours
and i have to go through the tedious process of waiting
i m really stuck here -
i am unable to go into recovery mode to flash my rom
Neither am i able to restart my phone - so i have a charger in pocket always worrying when my phone would go poof
i am sick of this
i just want to flash my rom to the stock android and be happy with it
I have been reading a lot of ways to unbrick my mobile - i am unable to find it
This has been troubling me for atleast 20 days
i really hope if someone would be kind enough to put me out of my misery
can someone help me find what is the problem with my phone
and how to fix it
Thanks guys for taking the time to read this
same here

I have an exactly same problem with my SM-N910G..
And the fact is System partition detected, recovery partition detected, boot partition detected, but All about Data or Internal Storage were UNDETECTED...
Really, both of us need some help.. :crying:
Entering Recovery mode bricks phone for 8 hours? Feeling sorry for you guys. But i don't understand why phone needs 6 hours after battery is removed to come back to sense and work? Anyway, have you tried accessing the download mode, If yes just download a stock rom and flash it with odin.

Have you any suggestion whether i should "repartition" it or not??

Hi harishjkhv,
If you are able to reboot after 6 hours by removing the battery, then try to reboot into download mode by using any super user app.
Then try to flash the stock firmware using Odin.

I've try flashing stock MM ROM from samfirmware with repartition checked..
But before i do that, i set my phone off while battery pulled out of the phone and charged separately using universal dock charger for 3 days..
My phone successfully boot and even i use for daily gaming like before, but the problem still remains..
Sometimes my phone got freeze (ended up with SOD), and when i pulled the battery off and on again, i failed to turn my phone on..
It have to wait for at least an hour without a battery..
And sometimes it says "ddi : mmc read failed" , no boot..
EDIT : oh yeah i forgot one thing, someone on the other forum encountering the same problem and suspect the power IC or mmc itself as the culprit..
And i myself think maybe because of overheating (on me is for games) those component became improperly attached to the curcuit board,and as the result is this hardbrick issues.. Will try some experiment..
I'll post here the result..
Its a software issue. I had the exact same issue with my T-Mobile version SM-N910T. I was able to resolve it by using ODIN to install the stock EPE3 along with the modem of COD6. After the phone restarted I placed the phone in download mode again and from there went on ODIN to install the EPE3 modem. After the phone restarts it should boot straight to the home screen.
Thanks guys. ..
Tried a lot of things
Nothing seemed to work...
I gave my phone to the service centre and they replaced my mother board
Cost me a lot. ..but still note 4 is worth it
Thank you guys for taking the time to help me and for your inputs

Its a software issue. I had the exact same issue with my T-Mobile version SM-N910T. I was able to resolve it by using ODIN to install the stock EPE3 along with the modem of COD6. After the phone restarted I placed the phone in download mode again and from there went on ODIN to install the EPE3 modem. After the phone restarts it should boot straight to the home screen.

Do by a lot experiments, I've got some result that the Chips is already in the verge of death..
So replacing motherboard is the only solution for now, if someone having a same problem..
But, I hope no one encountering this problem anymore..

Samsung Note 4 N910F is not stuck in bootloop, still doesn't really boot

Hey everyone,
I have been looking around online for several days now, but haven't been able to find a description of the problem I have with my n910f nor a solution.
When I got the phone it was stuck in bootloops and so I though it was soft bricked.
After I installed the custom rom and the latest version of TWRP via Odin, I thought that the problem was fixed, because the phone booted and I was able to start the configuration of Android (where it asks you for language, time zone etc.)
However, the phone turned itself off during this process. So I wiped everything and tried again, the same thing happened.
I then flashed it with Lineage, but it would turn itself off even before the logo appeared.
Then I flashed it with Ressurrection ROM, but again, the phone turns itself off during booting.
I can access download and recovery mode without any problems, I can flash roms and Odin works like a charm. I also used 2 different batteries.
Does anyone has an idea what I could try? Could it be the version of TWRP I am using (3.0.2.0)? Or is it a hardware issue?
Thank you!!
Hi, I have this exact same issue with my N910T and so far haven't found a solution to this. I really love my Note 4 so I'd like to know if this issue can be solved or not. I event went to a supposed repair shop and they couldn't figure out the problem, guess they weren't that good.
Sorry to hear this.
I have found issues that seemed similar, but not quite the same, and people hinted that it could be a worn out motherboard that is causing this top happen. But before I open up the phone (at the potential risk of breaking at least the screen) I would try everything else.
Or is there a way to test whether the motherboard is defective?
Its the plague of overheated, worn out emmc memories, sadly. Once it happen,the only way is a new/used motherboard,prefferably C model.
eMMC failure, snapdragon models are susceptible to this.

I suggest flashing stock rom with Odin after wiping your whole device in TWRP. I've had the same thing about 2 months ago.
Hey,
thank you for your responses. Yes, I read a lot about it being a motherboard problem.
I got it to work now thanks to this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/general/downgrade-official-mm-to-kitkat-t3383885
First nothing happened, but after I flashed Modem and the original Bootloader again (after installing the rom) the phone turned on and I was able to use it for a while (20mins maybe). Then suddenly it turned itself off and stayed on the "Samsung Galaxy" screen for a long time.
Apparently a lot of people are using Wakelock and it seems to be working for some of them, but that seems to defy the point somehow.

Which Stock Rom did you use exactly? Is your phone working fine?
