Recently I bought a Galaxy S4 i9505, But from the start I started running into problems Random restarts, Hangs, errors even after reinstalling several Stock/Custom roms, Formats, Re-Partitions no luck.
I have came to a conclusion that this might be a hardware issue. Now i would like to figure out which component can be causing the issue.
Will changing the motherboard rescue the device ?
Same problem, but only then device is charging... any advice here?

S4 No sound, reboots when trying to access ringtone
It is now really getting to my nerves, I have updated to Lollipop and now back to Kitkat and the problem is same. There has been nothing done physically to the phone so still i am pretty sure that this is related to the software but the porblem is that the ringtones are not working, when i am trying to call people i cannot hear them and they cannot hear me, camera is super slow and when i am trying to come out of all this the phone reboots and at times gets stuck at the samsung logo.
Please do not suggest to do factory reset, cache cleat etc because i have done all this and still the issue is not resolved. Please please if any expert could bail me out here !!! seriously need your help !!!
I am facing so many frequent reboots from past few hours. I have not made any changes to rom or kernel. Till yesterday everything was fine.

it might be caused by an app, boot into safe mode and see if persist.
it could be battery issue, try with another.
Ok, so these random reboots are really starting to tick me off. Am I the only one getting them? I get at least 1 a day. Lately more like 2 or 3 a day. No matter what kit kat Rom I'm on.

Maybe they think you've got a silly username. :highfive: No random reboots here, even on aosp Roms. But I'm really pedantic about flashing clean and whenever I get funny software issues I kdz flash to stock. That always does the trick for me.
Edit:
Since random reboots are caused by kernel panic, have you tried changing kernels?
I always flash clean as well. I never had any reboots on 4.2.2 roms. I like kit kat, but these reboots are killing me..
So, I ended up getting a replacement phone due to another problem. I have put same recovery and Rom on, and so far no reboots since Sunday. Woohoo
V20G solved my random reboots issue, hyuray

I have a rooted E7 with TWRP 2.5.6.0. The problem which I am facing is, that the phone randomly reboots. After this, something weird happens with the phone. The storage show that the files are present on memory, but the images aren't visible in gallery. Also if I try to take a screenshot, it gives some error. After manually rebooting the phone, everything starts working normally.
So, is anyone else facing the same issue??
Any solution for this random reboot issue?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Hi,
I experience random reboots on Gionee e7 too after KitKat update. It happens when I'm using the phone for certain tasks like browsing net, using camera, switching between multiple apps. I've rooted the phone now and have TWRP recovery. Was looking for some stable custom ROMs, but sadly nothing worthwhile found yet. So I guess I'll eventually flash stock Jelly bean for Gionee e7 now.

I have the same problem, with less of 1 month with the phone here, apparead random reboots, i can flash with GNQC or TWRP, CWM or other recovery, i have random reboots too... But i send my Gionee to the SAT here, i think that is problem of hardware....
Hi,
I am reading from time to time here at xda about random reboots issue with ZUK Z1, so here is my short story.
I am the user of ZUK Z1 since last year at the time there was only COS12.1 and CM12.1 available. The phone was working great for the first few months, no single random reboot, even with heavy usage and tons of root tools like xposed framework, greenify (with exp. mode), amplify and other experimental tools etc. Rock solid stability, CM12.1, ZUI, COS12.1, no matter which one.
Some day, somewhere beetween feb/march this year I started to see occasional random reboots, sometimes once a week and sometimes three times a day. After the last one of this random reboots, the phone refused to boot. No recovery mode, no charging screen, no fastboot, even no access to qualcom recovery port for use with QPST and QFIL tools.
Tried to drain the battery and charge again with no success, tried to soft-restart by power button - no success. The thing that helped after phone sitting on desk for next three months, was to dissassembly the phone and reconnect battery. After this, the phone boots up again, bot the random reboot issue is back, no matter CM12.1, CM13 or COS12.1
And now the questions time:
The question is, is this a software issue after some of the updates or hardware issue?
Are there users with the random reboots problem with the newest firmware?
How to debug and catch this random reboot on the logs without ADB connected to see what is going on?
What have i done to fix the issue:
- reflash phone many times with different versions of COS12.1 and CM13
- flash fresh .zip from recovery
- flash directly from fastboot with official COS images the support page
- fsck, partirion check for errors, etc.
- formated phone by QFIL tools
- tried to track the problem from logs, but so far no value information are stored after reboot
What i am going to do:
- install ZUI 1.6 to verify that the issue comes back
- as much as i can, use the device with ADB logcat connected by cable, to catch the occasional reboot
- recompile kernel with enabled options to store crash reason after reboot ( kernel pstore feature or last_kmsg )
I am in the same situation as you, investigating....
Please update your results, very interested to find if software or hardware problems....
Thank you.

Are you restoring apps after you flash your phone? If so, try not to. Just install basic apps you need and see if problem persists, since Google restores app with it's data.
Phone rebooted in recovery, so I think it's a hardware problem.
Phone is traveling to China again.
After what perio of time your problems started? I have my z1 for 2 weeks and it works perfect. I keep it on heavy usage for a few hours daily.

Hello,
I'm in the same situation !
My phone randomly reboots and also freeze (have to do an hard reset).
Have you find any solution ?
I am also having this issue... I will probably send it for the warranty. I have tried a few different roms, even restored back to CyanogenOS and the reboots continued...
I got mine since October, haven't had any reboots so far.
I'm running the latest update from cos without root or custom rom.
Seems like a hardware issue to me, I have tried everything software side.
same issue
I'm also having the same issue,any fixes??
Random reboots just stopped happening on my device a week ago. Before that I was trying different ROMs and flashed different versions of TWRP but the reboots were still happening. Then the reboots just stopped from happening and now everything is working perfect. I think it is a hardware fault. Probably some electronics (cables or what not) on my device are now having contact but were not having it before, I don't know. But if you are experiencing rebooting issues, just send your phone to the repair.
Any fix to this?
Whenever I do dirty flash, my zuk z1 random reboot twice a week. It is highly recommended to do a clean flash if you want to avoid random reboot.
Clean flash = No random reboots. @sebeqone
