Hey Guys,
So i picked up the Australian variant of the SG4 and haven't even had the pleasure of testing it out and i am already having issues.
I just backed up my iPhone 4s, and ran Smart Switch. Took forever to get to the point of selecting what i wanted migrated and then it said it was done on the computer end. On the phone end it uploaded my Calender and some SMS messages from 2010 and one recent one, But stalled for an hour on 2%, memos - 4% and Contacts - 11% and disappeared.
I factory reset it because I assumed I had screwed up.... but its done exactly the same thing... I started an hour ago and it is stuck on those exact same percentages....
Any one know what's going on???
I used an app called 'Bump'. Try that. Let me know how it goes!

So it comes up with wssyncmlnps has stopped every time I restarted the device.
Each time it would add things. It got to 99% of uploading the messages and failed again. So nod I'm stuck with messages from 2010 to may 2012 and nothing after. It now gets stuck at 69% of that final 1%.
Since I never saw the issue answered, and a search for a different issue brought me here, I'll post a a quick responce to SmartSwitch. You need to delete your old Apple backup, then in iTunes uncheck encrypted backup, then do a complete fresh backup. Smartswitch will then complete without issues.
Seems it can't deal with encryted backups, and even if you uncheck and backup again, it will fail, you must delete all old backups for that particular device first.
Hope this helps.

Didnt do anything for me.
I deleted my old iphone backup. Re backed up. I use smartswitch and follow the instructions and the items are there but greyed out and I can choose them.
You have 3 years worth of text messages! Lol
No wonder it's getting stuck, that's a lot of messages dude!

i have this same issue on the phone, pushes messages from the computer way too fast and gets stuck at 1%. Ive tried this on 2 S4's and 1 S3. I've also tried two backups.
I have 2 months old Galaxy s4. It was working fine until last night. Since last night, it automatically restarts and when it restarts it shows me 0% battery left. It started doing this when I was surfing facebook. I uninstalled facebook and it worked fine for a while. Then I tried going on whatsapp and it restarted again. Then i did the hard reset and It worked fine until I went on browser and it restarted again. Now its happening everytime I use anything on the phone.
I bought this phone from India and when I tried calling samsung support in Canada they refused to help me. Does anyone have any tips for me?
PS: When it shows me 0% battery, I removed the battery and restarted the phone and battery came back at 90%. So I dont think its battery problem.
Its even restarting now when I send text messages...driving me nuts...any sugestions??

Try removing your SIM card if you added one, and if that doesnt make anything better, then try to factory reset and flash stock firmware. If both those options fail to yield any results i think your phone might be defective.
I will try removing the sim. I have already tried factory resetting and it didnt help. What do u mean by flash stock rom?
Please pay attention to the device forum in which you seek help
There are many models of S4 and use of some software will turn your device into a $700 paperweight

I had an issue similar to this on my girlfriend's Galaxy S4 SGH-1337 AT&T 32GB. Purchased in America from Samsung.
Removing SIM card, removing SD card, removing both. Factory reset, blah blah blah - none of that worked.
What he was referring to, flashing stock ROM is using an application to force push the original software for your phone back onto your device like brand new. Sometimes this will fix defective issues in a device's software causing these malfunctions.
I did this and fixed her phone's problem completely. Try doing so by following the directions in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261573
*UPDATE: That link provides the AT&T file for flashing stock ROM. You may have to find your specific carrier and model "firmware" file. Just search the xDa forums for so. I quickly looked for a list of models/carriers firmware and didn't see them in a single list. They're available elsewhere but I support xDa and don't want to provide a link to another site.
If you don't have AT&T, make sure you find your model and carrier.
I bought it from India...brand new unlocked....which ROM should I use?
I have had two Note 4's but both were on kitkat. One I handed down to my son, and the other I had rooted and running great, but it got stolen out of my car on Christmas Eve. I ordered a brand new 910C and received it yesterday. When I started it I noticed it was running 5.1.1, but no biggie. Basically all I have done with it was restore my messages and contacts through samsung, and was having it re-install all the google apps I wanted to keep. It wanted to install a 95mb update, but I kept telling it no as I didn't have time to research what this update was. I hadn't done anything yet with the phone, it was just downloading google apps. I went to bed, plugged it into the charger, and was lying there reading an article on the internet app. The phone then froze and rebooted. After that, every time it re-started, it would start up then freeze. I tried to get to erase data through the software thinking it downloaded a bad app and I would start again, but it was freezing before I could do it. So then I went into the up arrow, home, power menu. If I was slow in that part, after so many seconds, the phone would freeze. It seems like it may be a hard ware issue freezing after so many seconds. I then was quick about it and first did a erase cache, no luck, then I did a full factory re-set. Now if I try to boot, it just freezes at the Galaxy Note 4 splash screen. Is there anything I can do to fix this, or did I just happen to get a lemon and need to send it back? I would appreciate any timely responses you can give so I can figure out if I need to contact the company I bought the phone from. Thank you everyone.
So.. Story begins..
I bought my S8 a few months back.. Worked flawlessly (Stateside).. Then I came overseas and the problems began.. I requested my service to be suspended by Verizon and after doing so my phone began to freak out.. I don't know for sure if this is the cause but having just received my replacement device and experiencing the exact same issue. Could it be possible?
Issue: No matter what I am doing on the phone it will freeze for a split second then appears to refresh.. For example.. If I am typing an email, as I am writing my keyboard locks up and the phone becomes unusable then it jumps to the top of the app and then I can continue .. It is SOOOO frustrating because for example.. SnapChat: While I am writing and the screen freezes and refreshes, I lose everything I wrote.. If I'm scrolling through Facebook .. It jumps back to the top..This became more frequent and even more annoying! Even if I am in the settings menu scrolled all the way to the bottom.. it freezes for a second and then jumps to the top of the app.. So.. I began removing apps I thought could be the cause of the problem.. I cleared the cache on the phone as well as the apps, reset settings, removed/re-added Google accounts, even tried some developer options to scale down the graphics, background processes etc.. No avail.. I finally caved in and contacted Verizon who put me in touch with TechCoach app to remote in a see the issue for themselves.. All the troubleshooting steps they walked me through, I had already done.. So they sent me a replacement.. I set the new phone up, installed the software updates, just a few apps to test and sure enough same issue! Then I wiped the phone again.. didn't install any software updates, I left it bare bones and even set the phone up as new (no restore from Google)... So as I am writing this TechCoach wants to send me yet another replacement device.. But I'm certain the "Certified Like-New" S8 they send me will end up doing the same thing.. What it appears to be to me (No expert here) is that once I came overseas and suspended my line.. There's some service/app that is trying to push/pull over network data and since it's unable to do so it's causing the phone to glitch? I mean I really can't think of any other reason this could be happening .. Furthermore, I tried different Wi-Fi connections, changed performance modes, disabled many "enhanced features" ... Any ideas/suggestions greatly appreciated while I wait for the replacement device.... Thanks XDA!
Update:
Verizon had to reactivate my line before they could send a replacement... So I asked the rep to keep my line active to see if the issue persists.. Would you believe it worked flawless as it did when I first bought it without issues.. So my theory was right!!! Some service running in the background is attempting to refresh without connectivity.. I'm now going through every system app to disable and test ... more to follow!
Hello all,
I have a unique issue where the most recent Android update caused my password to be truncated from 20 digits to 16 - now it won’t let me login to the phone when the phone starts up. I have 6 attempts left for a factory rest, whereby I lose all my data!
Samsung can’t help because I wasn’t logged into the Google Play Store, and this was a new phone and I haven’t backed up in about 2 weeks. I would like my data back, but that isn’t an option per Samsung, where I heard about this group.
Is there anyway to get my data back? And bypass this update to roll back without being able to login?
Dr. Fone won’t work because I didn’t have the USB Debugging option turned on. I can get into the boot menu, but have little recourse after that. This is a Hail Mary for anyone that might’ve experienced this or has thoughts on how to get my phone back on. Thanks in advance for reading!
And why would Google do this?! At least a big warning would’ve been helpful!
Best.
