Weird Note 3 behavior recently - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm rooted, and currently on Bajarom. I'm not sure if its Rom related because I have been on a few different roms recently and they all have seemed to do it.
My texts wont go through, or will I be able to send any.
The time doesn't change, the only fix is a reboot.
I've been tethering alot lately(50 gig worth) so the phone has been getting hot. I'll see something pop up and say cooling down and then its gone.
Could the hot phone have something to do with these issues?

Nexus one, froyo laggy

My nexus one became laggy recently with slow response to key depressions when typing emails and texts, changing between apps. Wiped the device clean and started again and all is well again.
Have you experienced this behavior on your N1? And if so is there an app or a diagnostic tool that we tell me whats going on? As now i have to reconfig it. Thanks.

probably something you recently installed slowing it down.
Wish i knew what, as i've put everything back on now.

System Panel will show if there's a particular application that's using CPU... Is the phone getting warm often or staying warm? That's the obvious indication the CPU is spinning..
I don't recall it getting warm. Well it's better now. I'll check the processes running next time it starts being laggy. Thanks for the tips.

Random shut offs!

Is anyone having problems with your phone randomly shutting off?
Does anyone have any solutions?

Ive had maybe one or two random soft reboots happen since getting my phone.
I haven't had one in quite a bit now though.
Really mine shuts off atleast twice a day

You using a task killing app? If so how aggressive are you with it? Seems like task killers affect this phone WAAAAY more than on my Nexus One.
Random shut off for me = once a week
Yes I have it but ive never played with the settings just downloaded the app and went on from there.

Also my droid x usually freezes alot when I only have 2 apps running. Have any tips? I've only dropped the phone once but its was about 1 foot away from the ground need help!!

Mine doesn't freeze but will reboot twice a week our so on its own
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I have had this happen to me twice. I was more on the line of thinking that it is an app that I installed. I hadnt thought it was the task killer set to killing an app that would do this. I will turn off Auto Kill and also do an inventory of apps that I installed since I noticed the shutdowns.

If I bring my phone to verizon what would they say?

I used a task killer on my Nexus One because old habits die hard. So when I moved to the Droid X I still had this habit. I quit using ATK this last Friday and havent had a single glitch or reboot since.
Could this be the case for others with reboot issues? Maybe, Maybe not.
If you have a task killer installed try uninstalling it for 2-3 days and see what happens.
I have never used a task killer but I had the same issue. A factory reset nor an .sbf restore from a brick changed it. My new phone just shipped yesterday as a replacement.

I was having atleast 2 reboots a day and when I deleted my task killer last week I haven't had any problems my phone is actually faster with out it. I think the task killer stops programs to make your phone run effectively.

Im bringing my phone to verizon today and see what they tell me thanks alot guys

I have been having the same issue. My phone will just rest to the animation screen not the motorola M. At first I thought it was chomp sms causing it cause a few times as sms texts would come in it reset. So I removed chomp but issue was still there so I wondered if set cpu was the issue cause I am ROOTED. So I remove that. Issue is still there. I done two factory resets and no help.
I do not see this being a hardware issue...... Tho if it is please someone enlighten me....
Reason is if it is software then I can wait til 2.2 or custom rom...
Please any help or insight would be great. My exchange period with verizon is ruining out. Don't want to return a item with proper hardware.
Please assist thank you.

I haven't ever used a task killer on the x, and still had the same issue. It got slowly worse, up to 2 or 3 reboots and 2 or 3 freezes (battery pull required) per day. Verizon shipped me out a new phone, and I just got it yesterday.
edit: the speaker's a good bit better, too. Not great, but definitely distinctly louder than my original one.
Any idea if I was to un root it if it would matter? Or if rooting did cause this... Is the damage done then?

Maybe this might be the issue

Hi guys. I was on the Motorola Droid X page, under owner support, and came across this:
"The battery charger shipped with this device is a high rate charger specifically designed for your DROID X.
Other chargers might take longer to charge your battery, cause your calls to fail during charging, or cause your phone to continuously power cycle."
I know that I had been using my BB Storm 2's charger with my DX since they both use the same connectors, unaware that the charger actually made a difference. I also noticed the shut-down/restart issue, and had called VZW about it twice, prompting the tech to send me out a new one. I only found this tidbit by chance afterwards. Maybe myself and others might be doing the same, and unknowingly creating a power issue...just my $0.02

Its weird, I haven't had this problem on any other android phone, its happened twice in the last 24 hours. I'm completely stock. Unrooted
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I can count on one hand the number of phone calls I've been on since I got the thing, but I haven't had it shut down on me any of those times.
I've had it happen every time when rooted and had apps. I went back to no apps and still had it happen. I went back to stock 2.3.1 via the nandroid around here and locked it back up, still doing it.
The only thing I didn't test was 2.3 vs 2.3.1 but I do believe it started happening to me, at least, when going to 2.3.1, now that I think about it.
I have this problem but rarely. It will reboot the phone show the nexus startup screen without the backlit LED. Is that whats happening to you?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Same here, and I have used every T-Mobile Android phone to date, never seen anything like this before! This is the only phone I haven't rooted yet, not sure what the issue is...
It only happened once so I didn't think anything of it.
I didn't know it was a common problem.
Btw I will be exchanging my phone cuz this one has done really annoying bugs, like freezing in between homescreen slides and apps constantly fc during use
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
ya i havent made very many calls, but thats why it kind of concerns me. i have probablly made 10 calls and i think its rebooted 3-4 times while on the call or at the end of the call. i wonder if its a bug with the phone app?
did you root the phone or something ? if its still on stock firmware like how you bought it, then try to restore factory sittings, if its still doing that you then you have a I/O chip problem. and you will need to replace your phone.
thats what the HTC care told me when my HD2 used to have this issue

I would believe it was hardware if it happened randomly, but for phone calls only, that sounds like software.

Happened to me just now. Stock 2.3.1 with an international call.
I'm not rooted, I just cleared data for the dialer app and cleared cache on the whole system, we'll see if that does anything. Good thing I rarely use my phone for making calls or I'd be pissed

Has your phone frozen on you yet?

I bought two of these galaxy s fours and also convinced my girlfriend who is a long time Apple iPhone user to switch over. I personally have experience one freeze that force me to restart the phone and hasn't happened to me since. My girlfriend on the other hand I was just getting used to the phone and beginning to like it but then she says her music player would be getting to get stuck and also couldn't answer a phone call because her phone was frozen during this. She said it froze about 3 times now forcing her to reboot.. I'm curious to know how is anyone else experienced this issue I understand that phones can get stuck for several reasons doesn't mean it's defective but I'm still curious to know how many people here have experienced at least one freeze up.

I get frozen once too. I played Zombiewood during 4 hours, and the phone was getting hot, when I try to go to menu, the phone froze, I had to restart.
It happens to me once every day or every two days. I think its an app or two that I have that is not fully compatible with my s4. I have removed a couple of apps that I think is causing the problem.

Wi-Fi traffic

I've have an issue or maybe it's not but everytime I'm running on my work network or home network both the up and down arrows never shut off. They are constantly lit. The data usage doesn't seem extreme but it appears as if it's always working. Maybe a stupid question but it's annoying as none of my other phone do this. Rooted stock ROM . Anything to look at? Thanks Jesse

Well heres an update . In have an s4 a note 4 and a note 3 all runing the same programs for the most part. Both the 3 and s4 are rooted stock romed . The note 4 is pure stock. The note 3 was the only phone of the 3 doing this but I couldn't really find just one program that was causing all the fuss. I froze the ones I thought might be causing it and unfroze each and checked until they were all unfroze and guess what. The traffic signals are back to normal. There was never any real data issues just annoying as hell. Anyway have fun guys. Jesse
