Every now and then, my phone will hang and suddenly reboot. The issue seems to be related to accessing data on the SD card.
Running stock rooted.
Anybody else have this issue?

I would back up everything and get a new card.
With my Huawei Mate 7 I've suddenly started getting messages saying my SD is faulty and to replace it. It's been perfect since I put it in but I just unmodded the phone, installed stock recovery and reset it, then re-flashed the same stock ROM. IMO the OS itself has caused an issue. I suspect the Axon 7 does similar things. Not game to do anything to mine just in case.
I'm now backing up the data on the Mate's SD and will see if I can format it.
My Axon 7 is encrypted, does that affect the SD at all?

please help if you can, I have a problem where the phone is regularly rebooting by itself possibly once a day if not more. The problem has occurred since I've bought the phone and cannot return it because my warranty is expired. I have tried many roms and even have the latest official rom but the problem still persists. I'm not sure what it is that's causing it and getting worried to wonder if it's a phone defect. :crying: Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks
Edit: I'm not sure if this could affect the problem in any way, however I also encounter a problem with the Sd card, the phone constantly ( every few hours) comes up with an error message "Sd card unexpectedly removed", I am using a 32 gb Sandisk.

Hi,
What kind of warranty did you have that ran out after a few months?
Look HERE
Try putting everything back to stock,then try again.

Hi I purchased my phone online, so the warranty would not cover any damage done to the phone
Iv'e tried going back to stock but nothing has worked yet, also this problem happened even before I rooted the phone, so I'm not sure what to do

Have you tried to remove the external sdcard and see if the rebooting problem persists?
If after removing the external sdcard the phone no longer reboots then copy anything you want
to save from the external sd to your computer.
After that format the external sdcard using FAT32 using your computer.
If the phone still has the rebooting issue after replacing the external sdcard, then your problem is solved.
(external sdcard is at fault).
Hey guys
Just got a S5 (previously owned a S2 and S4 Active, which I have rooted and put custom ROMs so many times. Hence I'm familiar with Odin, Recovery, etc etc).
About a week ago, I installed Shohat v5 ROM, everything went fine. I was quite happy with it.
I installed back my app from my S4 Active through a big update.zip (backed up with Titanium paid version) thanks to custom recovery.
And just now, when my battery was like 5% left, I decided to make a hard reboot (as Xprivacy warned me that I needed to restart to have my changes into effect).
I charged my phone and THEN I push the reboot button (not the hot boot).
While charging, the screen went normally black, but stayed black with the blue LED notification ON (not sure if that info is important).
Then, black screen stays forever:
- no logo
- no download mode
- no recovery
- When phone is connected through USB to my laptop, I hear the usual "tadaam" sound from Windows, but no "USB notification".
It seems a JIG would be the solution, but no idea if that would work for a S5 (I guess Samsung has now worked to avoid that solution)
Well, if anyone can help, that would be cool
Obvious I know but you have pulled the battery for a while and tried again right?

Hello
Indeed, I just removed the battery for a few hours a tried, no success.
But is it normal that a hardbrick can occur 1 week after installing a custom ROM?
Right now I can't bring it to Samsung store for repair...
(Adding a new post as editing is not working properly)
Isn't there a way to use ADB with commands through Windows (as there is the "tadaam" sound when I connect it through USB)?
A friend of mine bricked his Nexus tablet and went through such solution to remove the brick ...
OK ............
Here's the magic
After removing on and off the battery many times, trying to boot in recovery or download (trying about 15 times)
Now I managed to boot in recovery (I was like "huh?" and "wooohoooooo")
Did Wipe cache
Did Wipe Dalvick
No Factory reset
Fixed root (seems like I lost it, no idea why)
Let's see if I can reboot it
I think maybe the issue came from the huge update.zip created from my S4 Active (i9295) with Titanium backup (I was in Android version 4.2.2).
Maybe the reinstalled apps, messed up something as the ROM was in version 4.4.2...

OK ... bad news again
I performed a hard reboot to check that everything was stable, and phone rebooted fine.
then I turned off and removed to battery to put back the SD card and the SIM card, and now the phone is not being turned on again.
And now the phone is not able to be turned ON again...
What's going on, any idea?
*** EDIT ***
I managed to reboot in custom recovery totally randomly after playing with the battery (removing, putting it back, trying to boot)
I made a full factory reset and reinstalled the custom ROM Shohat.
After rebooting, it went directly to ODIN as it was displaying error messages "ddi: MMC_read failed"
I guess the internal SD card is dead.
Questions:
1/ Is warranty OK if
- KNOX counter is at 0 (no idea why it is at zero)
- Current Binary is set to OFFICAL
- BUT SYSTEM STATUS is set to "CUSTOM"
2/ Can a custom ROM do this or is it a hardware failure?
Did you try with another sd card did you have apps installed on this sd card for me this sounds like a dead sdcard issue with some apps on it. I had the same issue with my X8 when a lot of apps ware running from the sd card btw sd cards are totally unreliably for storing important data as they usually die after some writing on them.
Change the SD Card and I think your phone will come back to normal.
SD Card Reader

I don't know if this helps but I had an GS-900H (S5 octacore version) and struggled with it for a week trying to debug this problem, ordered new memory cards, installed different ROMs, etc. only to find out that the card reader was bad.
In my case it would corrupt the card every time so that my PC would need to 'repair' it before I could begin using it in the PC.
Maybe the card reader is a common point of failure?
EDIT: I also had issues with different cards working and not working based on the speed of the SD card (different S5). I know for a fact that it will switch you over to main memory when taking pictures that require advanced features -- I got a popup telling me that my memory card wasn't fast enough.

Hello guys
Thanks for your input.
Unfortunately I do not have an external SD card, the issue is with the Internal memory
So i can not request new ones or try to replace it, or work on the card reader...
Amazing that you are about to lose your phone forever and you don't even consider installing the original Samsung firmware.
What da f*** are you doing?
100%. Numb nut doesn't deserve the great phone It's like he got OCD.

Hello
Well, not sure that ODIN will work as the internal MMC is not recognized, so where would that be installed?
Furthermore, I'm waiting for the feedback from Samsung (as knox counter is at 0, Binary is set to OFFICIAL and only status is set to Custom).
I did not want to change these counters with manipulating ODIN.
If Samsung gives it back to me with a new one, then wooohoooo
If Samsung says "f*** off, you manipulated it, warranty is off", then I'll use ODIN with STOCK ROM from Samfirmware + PIT file (they are ready for use on my computer)
If you can't get to download mode how do you propose to use Odin to flash stock ??

Friend of a friend's phone. They had a rooted stock rom, had FC/restart issues, then after uninstalling an app, phone stopped recognizing external SD card altogether. I tried flashing stock rom, prerooted stock rom, wipe, nothing helped. SD card isn't even recognized in recovery mode (tried stock and TWRP). Tried applying permission fix too, no change.
Hardware wise the phone seems okay, no water damage or anything (phone was dropped though). Even tried replacing the SIM/SD card reader module, but that didn't solve anything either. I'm at my wits' end with this phone. Any ideas?

This happened to my phone periodically and was super annoying. I needed to use an OTG USB cable with microSD reader to install ROMs in recovery! Anyhow, it seemed to always work really nicely with stock based ROMs and was hit and miss with AOSP ROMs.
I noticed that when my phone got warm this problem appeared but only with AOSP ROMs. Possibly related, my phone had trouble with some custom kernels. Leads me to believe I had a flaky / borderline to acceptable tolerances component on the main board somewhere.
I know this doesn't help you but I ended up getting my main board replaced to fix another problem while under warranty. The issues resolved itself.
If you're still reading this novel try popping the memory card into a computer and reformatting to see if that helps. Backup data first of course.
Out of the most random occurrence today I'm all of a sudden having modem issues or something. It on't stop saying roaming indicator on and boots up reading as a missing sim for the first couple seconds. Thought maybe my sim card died, Swapped with another one, did the same thing. Thought maybe for some reason it was my rom (which was TruPure X), flashed to CM13 now to try and see if that was maybe it, still the same. Hoping someone can help me avoid having to do a restore back to stock and re-rooting, flashing all over, etc.
I don't know what's going on, but I am having the same issue as of this morning. I did go back and reflash stock, which fixed it but seems to have corrupted my sd card. I backed up the contents, so it isn't a disaster, but I can't get stock or custom ROMs to reformat it for use as internal storage.
If anyone has any ideas, I'd welcome the suggestions.

I figured it out in the service menu... Which btw its *#*#4636#*#* ... Lolz. Somehow the network type within phone info got changed.. How idk, cuz I only use service menu when absolutely needed and actually think that was my first time on the moto.
Hello. I will go through what I have done thus far to fix this and describe the problem as best I can.
Upon booting up a fresh version of Turbo ROM, after being on TruPure for quite a long time, I booted up to find the SIM card and SD card no longer functional. The menu for cellular networks is greyed out and the sd card is not recognized in the phone booted up, or in recovery. Windows does recognize the SD card and functions as normal.
What I have tried:
Obvious things like reseating, removing, reinstalling. Reinstalling when in recovery, when booted up, everything you can think of.
I downloaded and flashed new modems through using internal storage.
I updated TWRP in case something was going on in recovery.
WIFI still works in terms of getting data
The only thing I haven't tried is backing up the contents of the SD card and reformatting due to being at work. But given this is both the SIM card and SD card, I do not believe this will solve the problem.
Has anyone had this issue or has any advice? I am obviously rooted and unlocked and sending this in for repair probably isn't a great option.
Thank you
Edit: Just wanted to add that this SIM issue first popped up after flashing the Pure Nexus ROM, then Turbo, then back to TruPure. All the same result. But it was fine before I flashed Pure Nexus.
try flash NON-HLOS.bin, hope this will help
So I ended up using the back-to-stock tool and went the nuclear option. This allowed the SIM card and SD card to be recognized. If anyone else seems to have this issue, using that method will get you back up and running at least.
