[Q] Strange N9005 problem

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.

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

problem i my GT-I9505

Hello guys um haing a problem in my device,after i nstalled lolipop from kies then my device keep restarting :'( it randomly restart
and its taking alot of time to restart :'(
if anyone can solve this problem ??
um new for this device
Is it that the S4 is constantly restarting after getting to your home screen, or is it that it's taking a long time to start? Keep in mind, if you upgraded to Android 5.x, the first boot after an install or a cache wipe will be much longer than normal. This is because of the ART compiler. The device will appear to hang, but it will then go into an optimization phase, where ART pre-compiles every app on the device. Thus, if it's taking a long time to start, the solution is to be patient, as you could be waiting ten minutes or more.

Try flashing official firmware via Odin. Give a factory data reset before and after flashing the firmware. All the best.

Freezing on boot

Maybe you guys can help with me this one...
For the past week or so my s6 would randomly freeze and reboot. I originally thought the facebook messenger app was causing this but the reboots persisted after I uninstalled the app.
It eventually got so bad that the phone would freeze on boot and the phone wouldn't start. I then tried the following:
Wiping the cache - problems persisted
Factory reset - problems persisted
Flashing firmware through odin - problems persisted
Afterwards I took it to a Samsung support centre for repair, I got the phone back and they told me they had reflashed the firmware and tested it for an hour and it was working ok.
I could see the phone was working but didn't play about with it much until I got home and reset the data on the phone so I could set all my accounts up.
You can guess what happened next... the phone kept on freezing and rebooting at optimising apps, sometimes freezing at the samsung logo when it rebooted. Eventually the phone got to the welcome screen and I managed to set up the wifi details.. then another freeze and reboot!
Before I make the journey back to the repair centre is there anything else I can try?
Thanks in advance
