Hi everyone. I'm owning a Samsung Galaxy S4 for 3 months now. The problem I want to inquire about is that for the last 2 months I have been facing sudden phone restarts/reboots until yesterday it doesn't boot up at all.
For the last two months i have been facing sudden restarts when I turn the phone off and then try to turn it on. It had been booting up, but after a few minutes it had become frozen and then it had been restarting itself, sometimes for multiple times, until it booted up normally. Then I could use my phone without any sudden restarts, but ifl I turn it off or discharge - the same story.
Yesterday my phone battery discharged and when i charged it and tried to turn it on it just doesn't boot. It freezes on samsung galaxy s4 (I-9505) logo, then screen becomes black and it restarts it self.
I'm pretty sure that this is hardware problem as I tried to reset phone to factory default with volume up+home+turn on button and tried to enter safe mode, but i failed.
By the way, I don't know whether this is coincidence or no, but for those two months, when i have been facing restarting problem, my phone discharged very fast. I mean in stand-by mode (with energy saving mode, wifi and gps off), it had been loosing ~45% of battery per night (during i sleep).
Does anyone have any ideas what could be wrong with the phone? :silly:
It's sounds like battery problem to me, so I would suggest you to take it to service centre.

I had a similar thing happen to me. Sent it in for repair and whatever they did sorted it. Could be a bad battery. I suggest getting it fixed via warranty.

Hi,
was watching Youtube on my phone (GT-I9505 with GPE ROM by yesterday. Suddenly the screen froze up, while the audio was still playing. Nothing helped so I pulled out the battery and restarted. After that everything was ok. However this morning my phone was dead. So I force restarted again, however it won't start. The Galaxy Logo comes up for a split second and then the screen goes black again. I can't even boot into Recovery Mode. I can only get to Download Mode. Has anyone an idea what to do???
Charge the battery probably a good idea.
When did you install the rom?

Oh man, it was indeed the battery. Even though I plugged it in last night it apparently didn't charge. However, since the phone didn't die right away when in Download Mode I didn't make the connection of it being the battery. Feeling like a total noob, lol. Thanks everybody.
Hey there,
My Dad got a Galaxy S5 some time ago and cannot afford to upgrade. The phone recently stopped charging all together. When plugged in and powered on it doesn't respond to the charger, at all. When powered off and plugged in it loops the grey battery logo.
However if you boot download mode and remove the battery whilest leaving the phone plugged in, it stays on and functional. I even completed a full Odin flash back to stock without the battery in the phone for the entire process.
My dad claims he got a virus, but I factory data reset the device and flashed the latest update via Odin, and it still will not charge.
If anyone has any idea on what the issue may be, it would be appreciated. Prefreably as-fast-as-possible. He runs a business, and cannot answer calls for it without this phone.
Thanks.
my S7edge, with Stock ROM, never flashed or hacked it.
was working perfectly fine.
Last software update package was a week or 2 ago.
Today, the phone suddenly froze while I'm using it, then restarted and kept rebooting automatically in an endless loop.
I tried to force it to go to recovery mood... it would go to a blue screen saying : "Installing updates" and nothing happens.
kept rebooting into safe mode or recovery/download mode until it suddenly just went totally off.
The charger wires were a bit cut lately, so it would give a broken charging lately, not sure if that caused any kind of problems to the battery or mother board.
Since then, I am not able to turn it on again in any mode.
It also doesn't show any indications when a charger is connected.
So right now it is just dead with no signs at all. non responsive to any force power ON nor to charging.
I left it for more than 5 hours now without charging, nothing changed.
Update:
So I left it overnight. In the morning, I connected the charger and indeed it drained to 0% and started being responsive to charging again.
As soon as it charged to 20% I powered it on. It loaded into recovery, giving the no command screen. Then I went on and selected system reboot.
Then it rebooted and Android started, as soon as I tried unlocking it, it froze and started again into an endless rebooting loop until it blacked out again. Now again not responsive.
I will leave it to drain again. Does anyone know what I shall do when it gets to that endless rebooting sequence. It is obvious that Android had a malfunction... not sure what as I didn't do anything new last week..
Is there a way to get it through without factory reset?
Thanks

Bro flash latest stock rom
Solved !
It was already on stock ROM.
After lots of troubleshooting, rebooting in safe mode without the SD card worked fine. I then rebooted in Recovery mode, wiped the cashe, rebooted again normally with no SD card. Then inserted the SD card after.... got a message that SD card is not supported (seems it got corrupted somehow).
Anyways, now it's fine... let's see for how long...
