After install stock firmware and fist configuration, go to recovery mode and do clean cache, this help to me on another phone

The same is happening with me but i have to wait till the battery discharges totally and when i put it on charging it starts again i face this problem daily plus random screen freeze and reboot, my phone also gets very hot at that time. Please help

Hey !
This happened to me so often, been fighting with this problem for months now and finally (i think) found the solution.
I can tell you that this problem occurs when u are using Nougat ROM! Yes, believe it or not, but since downgrading to Marshmallow i never ever faced the problem. Check it out and give it a try !
Let me now please, if that helped you!

I tried to downgrade, actually, i flashed the MM, but when the Odin finishes the flash, the phone freeze in the first blue screnn ( erasing, update system ) after this: bootloop, download mode don't work, and then the phone "get tired" and dies completely for about 12 hours and the this cycle restarts. I'm already giving up.

Did you flash with Home_CSC? If yes, dont use HOME. Use the other one. Try to flash 2 or 3 times, and after the flash finished, instantly while booting go into Recovery and Wipe Everything. Then the phone should bootloop around 10 minutes, but after it should start normally.

As soon as he gives a sign of life, I'll try this trick.
Edit: Didn't work, it's freezed in this screen. Even if i try to enter in recovery mode, this screen goes first.

It's your mb. I had the same problem. I had to take it to Samsung and they replaced the mb. Plus, the Phone almost exploded while charging and made me almost get fired from my job because it frozze. I was so mad, that they sent me the Phone back with a letter of apologies.

Yeah i know the feeling. When you have visual defects with Phone freezes and overheating its related to mb and tbh, be carefull because my Phone was super hot when it frozze while charging. Just try to replaced the mb asap. There is no point in trying to fix it since its not software related and might explode on you.

Phone Won't Wake From Sleep

I've got an i9500 that won't wake from sleep. I've reflashed firmware with odin. No luck.
Tried alternate battery, no luck.
Any suggestions?

Everytime the phone goes into deep sleep, it hangs. Battery must be pulled, or power button must be held until reboot.
If I leave it on the charger, it won't deep sleep, and thus will wake up. If I leave a music player playing in the background, even with volume at 0, the screen can be turned off and on as normal. With no background activity, as soon as the screen is turned off and the ~3 seconds have passed for it to enter deep sleep, it "freezes" and won't turn back on till I do what I stated above.
I feel like it's a hardware issue, but I wonder if I can fix it with software?
Or any other ideas, please!
Since I'm in the USA, Samsung Int'l won't do a warranty for me.

Got same problem. Device will reboot if enter deep sleep. it's will reboot immediately when screen time out. Already flash many variant of stock rom and costum rom but still no luck.I also use different kernel but problem stil persist.
playing song will avoid the problem.
looking forward to solution for this problem.
i think this will be a warranty problem, because i did the following, go fully back to stock, including traingle away. after that my phone didnt had the problem anymore. but i still sended it back to samsung to be sure of the case.

I flashed official roms through odin. I did root it again....I think? See when I rooted my Note 1, N7000, I used zerg-rush or whatever, which exploited code through adb and whatnot. But for this, all I did was flash Adam kernel, and I had root, and stweaks. But never did I have a triangle, which made me wonder. And I didn't ever need to do triangle away. I thought flashing back to official would remove root. But maybe I missed something. Like I said, it seemed too easy.
Do tell!

I never got the triangle to.. But the flash counter was still 6 and when u go to settings=> about phone you will see that it's says unofficial firmware, and if u try to update the phone it probably says you have modified yours.

Mine still says official. I've had download mode show "custom" when I had a different kernel for root. But after just a simple Odin flash, everything says official. No counter that I've seen.

[Q] Samsung keeps reebooting after every few seconds

Hey guys I bought my phone relativly recently and I am quite a noob when it comes to these complex techy stuff so I appologise if many of you get frustrated with my questions.
However yesterday night my phone became dead and today morning i rebooted it and then started charging it till its battery was full but ever since then my phone has been non stop rebooting after within less than a minutes time. It is rather frustrating and I have no idea whats wrong.
I am not really sure if it was the phone updated when i was asleep or something when i was asleep but it has never shown any problems like this before.
Thanks in advanced for any replies.

The best solution in this case would be to try and restore your stock firmware either through KIES or through Odin. If that doesn't fix it, could be a hardware issue, in which case best take it back under warranty.

KIES is the official software from Samsung that you can use to restore your firmware: http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/JSP
To get started with Odin, I suggest you start reading from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265477. READ FIRST before trying anything so that you know what exactly you need, which versions, etc.

Being a newbie you should begin with KIES "Firmware recovery" function ... before any attempt to use Odin:good:

Ok I have installed kies however whenever it tried to connect to my s4 the s4 will reboot inbetween and it never finishes connecting with it
so.... what should i do?
I would try a different battery before flashing as you're new to this.
There's a high possibility it's a faulty battery
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Premium HD app
My phone also hang at the Samsung logo, then rebooted. When I plugged in my charger it suddenly did work. Battery seems to be faulty, waiting for a new one to arrive now!

My s3 frequent restarts

Hi few days ago I bought a s3. He was stoned him IMEI 0049, due to the fact that I have Z3X I uploaded all ok now only be a matter of spontaneous reboots. Phone reboots itself. When this is done can be reset until you'll take out the battery for about 5 seconds. After that withstands without reset of 10 - 15h.
I tried to upload the new official software as well as old, just as the bootloader. I would add also that I replaced the battery.

Black screen after Samsung galaxy s5 logo.

I have a verizon galaxy s5 I rooted it with the help and guidance from xda members over here. The method I used to root my phone was this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/veri...volte-t2879348 since i was already on NI2 I skipped steps 1. to 2.5 post rooting my phone everything was running pretty good for a few days without any issues but less than a day after I inserted a sim card in the phone it started randomly restarting so did a data wipe factory reset but the problem still persisted where my phone would would either randomly restart or go into a boot loop then I got the G900VVRU1ANI2_G900VVZW1ANI2_G900VVRU1ANI2_HOME.zip stock retail tar from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...42&postcount=1 and used ODIN to flash it but strangely even after I flashed the stock firmware it gave me the UNLOCKED logo at start below the Samsung galaxy S5 logo so I did another data wipe factory reset and now the UNLOCKED logo has gone but I'm getting a black screen after the Samsung galaxy logo. I can enter recovery mode and download mode my phone also gets detected in kies even with black screen.
I'm pretty freaked out and devastated right now because of the suddenness of this problem. I hope someone knows how to fix this issue.
Sorry for the long post but I wanted to be as detailed as possible.

OK I so I flashed this https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23610159112652178 through ODIN as you said and now I am getting display after the Samsung galaxy s5 logo all the way to the main screen and although I was hoping that this would fix everything I was also kinda prepared if it didn't. So here are the issues I'm having now, the display is a little glitchy after the complete bootup and even a couple times in the recovery menu the phone is also rebooting automatically after it goes to sleep or if I press the power button to turn of the display and it then blacks out and reboots.
Thanks again for your help so far.

Did you buy it from Verizon? There should be a warranty of some sort from Samsung.
Also, does this problem persist even without the sim card?

So if I manage to get the receipt of the phone and it happens to be in warranty and I take it to a local samsung store do you think they will accept it even though it wasn't bought in USA?
Also do you think its a hardware issue or just a software issue as I have no display issues or any kind of other malfunctions when I'm in Download Mode.

Also do you think its a hardware issue or just a software issue as I have no display issues or any kind of other malfunctions when I'm in Download Mode.

Unknown about warranty but worth a try. I am assuming you are still stock NGC from your last flash. Maybe trying the latest lollipop would help. You need to root again. You can always go back to stock if it doesn't.

It seems that the display glitches are now appearing in Download mode as well.
I'll update the thread if I am able to get out of this hell I have gotten myself into by my own doing or if I decide to ditch the phone in its current state.
Thanks again for the help.

This could very well be a hardware or display issue so don't blame yourself.

Thanks for the kind words man but either way I feel pretty ****ty and I don't think I'll ever root again.
I sent the phone to my uncle and he submitted it to verizon they accepted it and they repaired/replaced the phone.

[HELP!] Stuck in "RECOVERY BOOTING.." Bootloop - N910F

Hello guys, thank you for helping!
I have a N910F that was working on a Lineage OS 14 ROM, I've decided to downgrade it to Marshmallow (It was Nougat) Stock ROM, I did that on Odin and wiped the user data and everything was working fine..
until one day the phone got back on 0% of battery and it just wouldn't boot normally, it was stuck in bootloop, I went and downloaded a Lollipop firmware(Because the MM ROM was deleted) and I flashed the ROM via Odin, and now the phone is stuck in "Recovery Booting..." maybe each boot is like 3 seconds or 2
Please help
Any help guys ^^?

Here's a link to the latest sm-n910f from updato.com. Maybe the 910f can't be downgraded from MM to Lp.
It's this firmware:
GALAXY Note 4 SM-N910F 6.0.1 MAY 25, 18
United Kingdom (EE) (EVR)
N910FXXU1DRD1
Edit- Link is broken, please go to updato.com for firmware.

It says Hotlinking is not cool xD
-EDIT- Found it ^^
Do I flash it normally in Odin now?? Just boot the phone in Download mode and put the ROM in Odin and start flashing?

Oh, I see that hotlinking message now. Lol, I had tested the link but was worried something like that would happen. I updated the other post just in case anyone else is looking.
Yeah, just unzip it and flash through Odin.
I have a N910T, but perhaps someone in the thread I link to will be able to advise if this can help you as well.
This is the only method that helped my Note recover from the recovery bootloop, constant random reboot etc. To be honest, Fire Kat v21 is actually pretty good....very fast and nearly all of my apps still work on Android 4.4.4.

I've got similar problems. Even Odin flash didn't brought the device further. My battery was completely dead so I supplied with an external powersupply (around 3.9V).
That also doesn't work. I needed to add 2.4kOhm resistor between battery GND clip and thermistor clip to fake the non existing thermistor.
If you've got some electrical equipment at home give it a try. It worked for me.
Else you can try a new battery.
Besides that reboots occured after that again. Now I'm going to test the famous Wakelock app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.thedarken.wl&hl=en. Nearly all reviews are from Note4 users there. Really sad...
EDIT: Can you measure your battery voltage with a multimeter?

Thank you for your help man ^^, sadly.. I don't have any electrical equipment to measure the voltage, I gave up on this phone.. it's a great phone but the software side is just bad.. :/
I can't even use that app because my phone won't even boot up normally or even go to recovery booting, I tried everything with Odin, what's left is ADB but I don't know how to use that.. do you? Ty!

So you flashed stock ROM with Odin via download mode, right? It's exactly the same behaviour as my phone had. Entering download mode is working flawlessly - recovery isn't working. It booted up, blue font "recovery booting" then turns off and on again. Endless loop.
Did you try charging the phone some hours? Is offline charging working?
Another thing you can try is the fridge. https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/bootloop-fridge-t3155586 or here https://www.reddit.com/r/galaxynote4/comments/4to05k/note_4_freezer_reboot_trick/.
Just search for note4 and fridge :laugh:
You have a fridge, right?
If that helps (I hope for you :good you need to install the wakelock app afterwards. For me this worked (at least for the last day.) Without I had spontaneous reboots (especially when using the cam).
