Apps and Services keep stopping after clean flash - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
i have N910C, i was running old ROM just fine, suddenly i started getting this kind of pop up telling me apps and services keep stopping, so i decided to flash multiple ROMs stock/custom, and i still get the same messages even after flashing the ROM.
i have tried everything including wiping entire memory, dalvik and caches then flashing stock Bootloader/Modem/ROM.. but i still get same messages once the device starts (sometimes i stuck at bootloop after flashing the stock ROM)
files i am using for stock ROM:
Bootloader: N910CXXS2DPJ4
ROM: N910CXXU2DRA1
Modem: N910CXXU1DPI1
any idea ?

Try just to flash through Odin only the Rom. Nothing else,just ROM and if that doesn't work,download Smart Switch,put phone in download mode and let the program do the job.
It will download the latest ROM and all latest updates and that should be fix all that problems.

[Q] Major issue with Australian SM-9005, help!

Hey guys, so I've had my Aussie Telstra Note 3 (SM-9005) for just under a month, rooted it with Knox 0x1, installed TWRP 2.6.3.5 and have tried out a few custom ROMs - all went fine. (Last ROM that worked properly was Foxhound 1.0.)
That is until I flashed X-Note Transformer Edition (MJ7). I flashed this through TWRP 2.6.3.5, everything was successful and standard as any other flash, rebooted into the ROM only to find a message saying "Can't play this video" on the very first Interactive Tutorial (Language Select) page. This message appeared multiple times, then more messages saying the system has crashed. Also, everything is extremely slow and barely anything works - including sound, camera, settings, etc. Also Wifi detects networks but cannot connect to them (system crashes). Any time I try to do anything settings related the system bootloops, and I cannot get a mobile signal at all.
Now here's the weird thing, I thought it was just an issue with the ROM not being compatible, so I rebooted to recovery, tried to reflash the previously-working Foxhound 1.0 ROM - SAME ERRORS. Tried a full wipe/format/rm -rf - and install stock ROM from zip - SAME ERRORS. Downloaded the completely stock Telstra Odin ROM, flashed through Odin successfully - SAME ERRORS. Tried to restore EFS (It said successful) - SAME ERRORS... hope you can see where I'm going with this. I've also tried CWM, flashing with different versions of TWRP, full wipe before installing any ROM, etc. tried basically anything I could find on xda without any luck - the ROMs all boot up, but as soon as they load it pops up with the same "Can't play this video" message and everything starts locking up.
This has me really worried since I tripped Knox at the very beginning before Root de la vega, I'm only hoping whoever Telstra use to fix these doesn't care about the counter.
I have literally spent two days without sleep trying everything to fix this and completely failing, so If anyone could help me out I would be forever in your debt, cheers.

What was the last version of firmware flashed?
You might need to flash the gsm modem for that firmware version to get it to work especially considering you have bootloops and no reception.
You might also need to use Megawipe to clear any errors that stay on your device after flash.

Hey mate, last version of firmware was the Stock Telstra SM-N9005 / TEL ROM I found on www . sammobile . com/firmwares/2/
I have tried at least 10 different ROMs with no luck, every single one does the same thing.
I did send it off to Telstra to try for a repair, they sent it back to me unrepaired due to nothing to do with the software but a 1/4mm scratch my keys made in the chrome plastic around the edge with the words "unable to be repaired due to physical damage" with a little sticker pointing to the scratch. ****ing ridiculous if you ask me.
Honestly I don't know all that much to do with the modems and csc's so it might be that causing my problems but I have tried a bunch of different ones without any change.
At my wits end here, phone is just over 30 days old and I can't use the damn thing.
try odin back to stock, then use kies to "emergency firmware restoore" Kies can be a life saver in some situation, make sure you use beta 3 version

Phone rebooting, can't flash modem, other problems

I have some related problems with my phone which started happening a couple of days ago after updating Google Maps and a few other programs from the Play Store (Twitter also). That may not be relevant.
It's an Australian i9505 from Telstra. I'm on an old version of Omega ROM - v12 - with Adam Kernel 3.4.0. It's the latest that (the currently stalled) jKay can run on.
The main issue is that the phone reboots frequently. It seems like a "soft reboot" - the uptime reported in System Settings - > About device -> Status doesn't reset, but the time reported by Battery, for instance, does (and the whole UI reloads, programs, widgets etc)
This can happen in my pocket, or can be pretty reliably triggered by uninstalling a program, sometimes installing/updating, and sometimes from using Google Maps (embedded or the program itself).
The first time it happened was after the programs updated on the 5th of Feb.
Related issues:
I can't update the modem in Odin or Mobile Odin.
I tried upgrading to the latest pre-KitKat version, v19, which requires updating the modem.
Flashing the modem I already have did succeed, but that doesn't prove much.
I can update the recovery though - but I haven't tried installing a new rom because of the modem problem.
Rebooting into Recovery or Download mode from software fails - i.e. any of the "boot menu" programs/features. The phone shuts down but then stays turned off.
I can boot into them using the hardware buttons though.
Things I've tested:
It's not the SD card - it happens with it removed.
It's not the battery - I've got 3 batteries, none of which suffer from bloat, and it happens with all.
It's not water damaged - the nearest it got to rain was a couple of days earlier
From what I can tell, rolling back Google Maps, clearing data/cache for Google Services Framework or Google Play Services, all don't fix it.
Any suggestions?
Is my phone toast? Is there a rom I can install with included modem, perhaps?
Or should I at try unrooting and going back to stock? Triangle Away currently fails too, so I'm concerned that if it's a hardware problem Samsung won't fix it for me anyway.

Hi,
A couple of things that you might try:
1. Look HERE
This should help with the flashing of the modem.
2.Do you have the knox-pox?
Check in download mode.
Is there anything about knox?

Hi there,
Thanks - I'll try that, although I've attempted flashing the modem a number of times. I'll uncheck autoreboot, but it never gets there because it fails during Download Mode.
I don't have knox - I'm still on an earlier bootloader.

Hi,
If that fails , and you want to get back to stock, Google for the MGA firmware.
This is the knox-free version.
Bear in mind that this will wipe your phone clean.
It is flashed in odin , and will replace your ROM,kernel ,modem and recovery.
Triangle Away should also work and you could then send in your phone for repair.
One thing if you do that , they will probably upgrade your phone to the latest knox-pox version.
Good luck
I'm trying to flash the modem again, but I'm noticing this error:
There is no PIT partition.
Is it worth flashing with a .pit file?
Or can you *only* flash a pit file when flashing firmware, not modems or recoveries?

Hi,
I would go for the stock MGA firmware flash.
Back up your stuff first.
If you still get errors , post your questions HERE
samersh72 is the expert in pit files.
UPDATE: so, at home I only have a Mac and I do my Odin stuff in VMware. 99% of the time it's fine, but updating my modem in order to flash the latest Omega ROM wasn't working.
At work, I plugged in my Samsung cable to one of the back USB ports, and had no problem flashing modem and pit file.
The problem with rebooting (into download, recovery or whatever) via software has gone away - *phew*
Then I installed latest Omega, same problem.
So I tried installing with full wipe - and from what I can see, it wasn't randomly rebooting - I could use Maps and remove Play Store apps with no problems.
Unfortunately upon restoring apps & settings with Titanium Backup, the problem returned. But I'm confident now that it's settings, so I won't need to restore to stock and take it back to Samsung at least!
I'll wipe again and post here when I resolve where the problem lies. Next attempt will be to restore user apps + data but not system data, or vice versa, and to be more selective... I'll crack this
I've now reinstalled the ROM again with a full wipe, didn't allow Google to reinstall my apps but instead got Titanium Backup to restore only non-system apps and data.
Of system data I've restored SMS/MMS messages, accounts, and WiFi access points only I think. I've redone the settings for everything else.
So far, all systems go - no reboots.
Oh and conversely, restoring ONLY system apps/data immediately brought the problem back.
I'm not that keen to keep restoring system data till I encounter the problem, since for now I seem to be back in business. W00t! :laugh: :good:
I have had similar issues. It seems like the internal sd has been formatted incorrectly. So i Google the I9505 pit file for Odin and stock firmware Knox free and everything worked straight away. Odin will format the internal sd with the pit file and then it will begin to flash stock firmware and you will have fresh s4 to work with.

Thanks - yes, I did flash a pit file for i9505 and it did help the problem with booting into recovery/download mode via software.
But the crashing problem comes back anytime I restore all the system settings, so it's some weird bug with some buried setting - it's not Google Play Services or Google Maps, even though it's related to them. I've just stayed away from restoring practically any system settings and it's working for me.

Is my phone defective?

Hello guys,
I was using my phone with DN5 ROM, and today it started to freeze. I tried to clear Dalvik cache and cache, but the TWRP was also freezing. I did a full wipe, and tried to reinstall DN5, but installation also crashed. I installed back the Stock ROM via Odin, the installation was a success, but after the phone reboots, I got a message saying “Installing updates” then “Erasing…” then “No command”. Phone then started, initialize and all, but after a minute of use it crashes and reboot. Im out of ideas here.
My question is: Is there anything else to do before taking it to the assistance?
Phone Model 910C
Actual ROM N910CXXU1COI4
Just restore with Kies
I did that, no luck

SM-N910F strange bootloop - only certain ROMs... ?

Hi!
Just got myself Note 4, and after rooting and installing TWRP I started looking for ROM that fits my needs. And here goes the strange thing - after tryign few ROMs, now the only ones that will work are Omega, Emotroid & CMRemix. All others after flashing keep rebooting. That is, system starts, and after 30 secs to 1 minute there is reboot. AND - they don't see the SIM card. Those that work do.
I tried to revert to basics - tried FULL erase from TWRP, reflashed via ODIN original roms (those started no problem), but when in tried again - the same. Other ROMs keep crashing.
So, does anybody have an idea how to totally wipe a phone ( I mean, totally, just leaving ODIN flashing capability so that I can reflash it)? I suspect that there must be somethign somewhere that stayed after one of the ROMs. And what puzzles me, those ROMs that now crash it, were working prevoiusly.
Any ideas/advice will be appreciated.
Thanks!
