Nexus 4 randomly restarting

Hello! i have a nexus 4 with kitkat 4.4.2.
even after i did factory reset it keeps randomly doing restarts( not full restart, just showing the circle logo like on startup and after a few seconds it works again)
the device isn't rooted it is just like i got it when i bought it.
i don't know if it is related to the problem but the google play store crashes many times when i use it.
searched in the forum didn't find a thread about this problem, please help me fix it)
thank you

Downgrade to older bootloader and modem?

Is it possible? For example going from the POK1 BL and modem to older ones?

Come on, you can literally type Yes/No and its done! 120 people have seen this and not ONE had 5 secs to spare?!

I have a many Problems after the Downgrade, no Samsung Firmware works no Imei only CM12.1 works. The BL and Modem COJ3...
I will make a new test this Week... Sorry for my Bad English...

After almost 2000 posts to your credit and being on XDA since 2012, everyone is probably confused as to why you're asking and why you haven't tried already.
If K1 is not a locked bootloader, like we've now seen with the COJ5, you should be able too.
I've never seen anyone post not being able to flash back to an older modem. Unless it was user error like picking the wrong one, for a different phone.

I'm just too afraid of permanently damaging my phone.
Numbers do not matter, I still learn. Sure, I know more than someone new to the community but that doesnt change the fact that I dont know everything.
The person right above you has problems with his phone now. I'm just trying to prevent that from happening to me too.
Anyway, if I flash the COJ5 bootloader, there is no going back?

Yes don't flash Coj5 to avoid stucking with 5.1.1 roms
That's all good luck

Bricked S7 after flashing wrong ROM

**WARNING: I'm a noob when it comes to technical terms, I JUST switched from iOS to Android, so please mind my low level of knowledge**
Okay, so I tried rooting my phone but I think I used the wrong ROM or something. And it keeps giving me this error. PLEASE help!!
My phone is a samsung galaxy s7 edge SM-G935FD (Purchased from the UAE and its unlocked)
The problem was that I tried rooting it using ODIN 3 then it gave me a FULL red screen, like nothing else, just plain red, then it loaded this screen (image below) and when I try getting my phone OUT of download mode, it just goes in it once again (Yes, this is what shows up after I tried rooting my phone now its stuck in download mode with this screen) Please help im really scared!!!
Image: i.imgur.com/AdNpHEJ.jpg (Imgur is a very popular image sharing website so you don't need to worry about viruses and such)

If you can put your S7 to DOWNLOAD MODE, just download stock rom from sammobile and flash it back to stock.

Hope it help!

Thanks, but the UAE version doesn't show up D: Which version do I use?
ALSO: Will I lose my data? If so, it's okay. Im just curious.

Yes you will loose all data. But i think that is not a problem since you dont have a phone right now i was reading that you can flash a g935f firmware too but not sure. .

Thanks. I found the UAE version for the SM-G935F model and it's downloading as I type this. Thank you all for trying to help me. I appreciate it.
Also, what version of ODIN do you suggest I use?
Thanks in advance.

Use the latest version, you can find download links on this thread.

Look if new software update is possible.

Hi, I suggest you youtube your model and watch a video walk through. I do this every time I get a new phone. Apologies to anyone if I've offended for mentioning youtube!

Its still not working! I need help, please. I do not have a phone and tried taking it to multiple stores but none offered to help me.

Some questions

Hi, i am somewhat new to this, i have a ALE-L23 (i think it is a single SIM cause in my box comes only one imei) which used to have android 5 (emui 3) so i downloaded & installed the C432B565 update so i could update my phone to android 6, everything went fine (did it trough the official huawei app) and generally speaking my phone works normally but now i see in the build number hi6210sft and in the build model BalongC52B311
As i said, everything works fine, the only issue i have at the moment is that my computer can't recognize my phone when i connect it via USB (The battery does charge itself tough, and when i connect my S4 the computer does recognize it, so i know the cable is not the problem here)
Do you think it is somehow related? Should i worry about the build number and model? Is there any way to fix it? preferably without unlocking my bootloader as my warranty is still valid.
Any help will be highly appreciated, thanks in advance!

Well you have the infamous Balong Bug.. Nothing to worry about.. But the computer should be able to detect your device.. I too had it, while transitioning from Lollipop to Marshmallow..

Could you let me know if it worked? Also... Does the computer detect your phone as an unknown device or does'nt it do anything but charge?

Ok so you're on c432 now, isn't it?
Download b132 version and flash it, after flashing that.. There must be a folder named vendor which contains update.app (small in size), flash that too.. This will remove the bug..
If successful, you may proceed to download and flash b170, b550 and all the way to b574..

p9 lite bricked?

Hi guys, sorry for my English.
I've a P9 Lite white VNS-L31.
Yesterday, I've updated with OTA to B161.
After That, the phone rebooted and when it powered up I've got a white screen with:
ERROR MODE
PLEASE UPDATE SYSTEM AGAIN
NO RECOVERY NO SYSTEM
the battery is low and I can't recharge
Please help me!!!!
Thankyou

How do you mean cant charge?

P9 Lite support offline charge, doesn't it? I suggest you to try with dload update method.

hello, i'm using Huawei P9 Lite VNS-L21. i tried to flash the stock nougat Firmware Which i actually did and it worked flawless! but there was a little problem because there wasn't any Software update option in there, so after that i wanted to downgrade to stock MM. IDK what happened wrong while installing that, my phone got BRICKED. i don't have the Erecovery and twrp either. i cant flash firmware via DLOAD Method. the only thing i have is FASTBOOT mode..
i tried literally everything.. but nothing working..
I sent it to HUAWEI CUSTOMER CARE and they returned it back after a couple of days...

Why you didn t wait for nougat ota? There are a ton of users with bricked devices.. i keept telling you to stop doing that. Try reflash ur firmware. Therr is a thread on xda on how to downgrade from nougat to MM

Because we are on XDA and flashing firmware/mods is one of the main purpose of this community?
This is totally a unnecessary reply. If you don't want to help just ignore.
