Internal Storage disappears randomly ? - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So yesterday in the evening I was browsing on 4chan with the clover app and suddenly pictures weren't loading anymore. I wondered what happened, looked into es file explorer and in my /sdcard/ folder it just said "folder was not found". I restarted my phone and it worked again so I didn't worry. But now I woke up and the /sdcard/ folder disappeared again, after a reboot it was there again, but it disappeared again shortly after that. What is happening ? I've got a rooted Nexus 6P with stock Android 6.0.1 security patch 1st January and xposed. I haven't changed anything in the last couple of days, so I don't really know why it's happening. I have an old backup from a couple of weeks ago, but I don't really fancy restoring that... Has anyone else experienced that issue or is my internal storage faulty ?

Maybe Xposed and your old 6.0.1 security patch might be the reason?

Well I don't really know, because as I said it all worked in the past and I haven't changed anything since I installed Layers a some weeks ago. Also it seems to be happening randomly so I guess I'll wait a couple of days to see if it happens again. Maybe it'll stop and someone might even have a solution for it.
(btw I didn't update yet because I don't really want to go through the hassle reinstalling of root, xposed and Viper4Android at the moment...)

[Q] Hit a snag

Hey guys. I rooted my M a couple days ago (5th or 6th device ive rooted) and am having some trouble this morning.
Everything seemed to be fine, I got rid of some crapware, grabbed droidwall, font installer, etc. The only major(?) change i made was putting safestrap on the phone. Afterwords, I rebooted and seen that there was no "splash screen" show up like the directions said there would be, so i figured it didnt work. This was a couple days ago. I didnt have any problems with the phone starting up at all until I changed the font a couple times. The first time, I changed it, rebooted normally, and everything changed over and appeared normal. After a few minutes of looking through the options again, I found one I liked better and installed that one. Reboot - stuck on the boot screen. Bummer. Tried to get it to start back up and it always does the same thing.
So I did some reading and am currently charging up my phone and downloading the razr_M_utility to restore and start over. Not sure what I did or why this happened. I dont recall making any other changes that could have caused it. I did use uninstall master to uninstall some of the bloatware, and thought that maybe I got rid of something that i wasnt supposed to. However, I have rebooted a few times since then and its been fine until now. Plus I'm pretty sure that I didnt uninstall anything to cause a problem.
Any additional thoughts on this would be appreciated. Like everyone else, im learning as i go! thanks

Utility is gonna take care of it for you...I'm certain. I cant think of anything that caused it though. That's kinda weird. But if I were you I would just stick with the stock ROM with that issue and just troubleshoot it and if it happens again...hit it with the utility again
Also if you don't mind losing camcorder the 4.2.2 ROMs are great and don't require safe strap as Kong as you unlock boot loader through the utility. But will void your warranty.
Good luck! And follow those instructions on Matt's utility perfectly!

System UI and all apps crash after sudden freeze/reboot.

Hello,
I've had my S5 for a few months now and I've rooted it with CF Auto Root.
All was well untill a few days ago when my phone suddenly crashed, rebooted and wouldn't properly turn on again.
All apps were crashing, and after clicking 'OK' on the notifications I had a black screen and that was it.
I cleared all data and did a factory reset through recovery, now all is well.
But today it happend again, and of course, the factory reset clears it up but if I have to do this every week I'll go mental..
So, does anyone else have this or have had this? If so, please help!
It's the G900F, 5.0 Lollipop with CLauncher installed (if this makes a difference).
Baseband: G900FXXU1BOB7
Buildnumber: LRX21T.G900FXXU1BOB7
Hope to hear from you guys soon!
im getting this too, so i make constant backups using TWRP.
unfortunately that is not solving the root cause.
It's really weird, all I did last time was change the brightness..

I don't know if it is the same problem, afeter the reboot i have no problem, but since a few weeks my phone is rebooting every day or two. In every case i was doing something different. Know i believe is supersu or root it self because after each reboot i must autorize root permission again.

Help! NP TWRP Recovery Issue

Hey guys,
I'm on stock M and rooted and flashed recover couple weeks ago. Everything worked fine until couple days ago when ever I turn on my TV, the device will be in recovery mode. I'll reboot system and I'm back to normal.
I'm not sure if it just reboots into recovery, or if it's something in standby mode that does it? Can't figure it out. Anyone?
Thanks!
Same happens to me. Not sure if it has anything to do with a small update that's already downloaded and needs to be installed. Even disabling sleep still goes to recovery..
This usually happens overnight when your Nexus Player tries to install the system update that it has downloaded in the background. It's only a small security update with no new features so you might want to disable system updates using the method described at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63698375&postcount=24.
Thanks a lot.
Was going to make a thread about this problem I'm having too.

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

Still having the same issue around the same time everyone else started experiencing it.
I also was rooted and had xposed installed on 4.4.4 before the issue started happening.
Try the solution provided here & report back..
