Hi all, earlier this morning, my phone was working perfectly fine. Somehow, 5 mins later after checking my phone, the screen was unable to be switched on, so I decided to hold onto my power button. My phone came alive subsequently, but all my apps were missing, and all that's left were the MIUI apps. I've attempted to reflash 10.3.15 xiaomi.eu but to no avail. My "other files" shows that it's 20gb as well, so could it be that my old files were there? Anyone has any encounters or solutions for this?
I experience same problem. But the thing is im using official MIUI and havent done any bootloader unlock. I dont know if this is hardware problem or what.
Same issue here. Stable Rom on the 9T (10.3.11). Phone just went dead this afternoon. Screen wouldn't power up. Held down the power button... Took a few extra seconds to start up then a few minutes to boot.
I lost all my settings, my data, my whatsapp messages, all my apps... And the phone started with just my miui apps. Ironically, sms were still there, fingerprint still loaded, call settings gone... Weird.
This is concerning since their hasn't been a Rom update in months and this issue popped up out of nowhere... And it's happened to a few of us.

For some reason partition was corrupted.
Happen usually when FSYNC is off.. but it should not on stock ROM.
I would suggest to flash another ROM, even if stock since your version must have this nasty bug
Or you just booted to safemode? Just reboot it normally and you get all of your apps back.
Rebooting doesn't replace the apps. They are gone. The file manager showing that the phone has 10GB more available storage reinforces that. Whatever the bug is, it's affected 2 different official roms and a xiaomi.eu rom. This isn't good.
i experience the-same thing on miui 10 eu stable. that's why i switch on miui 11, even if it is beta i think it is most stable yet so far.
Same here. On stock ROM, over the last months, my phone crashed and was hot. I had to press the power button during 10 seconds to reboot. It happened 4 times, and the last time it happened, all my apps were gone. I contacted xiaomi support via chat, they told me to ask for a RMA if it happens again.
I unlocked the bootloader & installed xiaomi.eu MIUI 11.0.3.0 yesterday, I'll give it a few weeks to see how it evolves. If it crashes again, I'll ask for a RMA.
Hello does any one knows why is this happening?
Yesterday happen to me.

Verizon Note 3 here, I received the Lollipop ota today and thought no harm in taking it as I was already stuck without root on 4.4.4.
It worked ok for the first couple minutes, then a reboot, then same thing, about 5 minutes and a reboot. Sometimes ~2 minutes, seems using it in any situation made the reboots happen. I did a factory reset thinking that would clear things up. Unfortunately now it is even worse, as it's rebooting anywhere from the first touch to the screen, to about 15 seconds of activity, literally dozens of reboots.
I downloaded the update on my pc and installed via Odin hoping that the ota was just corrupted or some bad luck like that. Nothing changed at all.
It will idle after booting just fine, I just can't do much of anything, every touch of the screen feels like a roll of the dice. Every few reboots or so I can make it to settings maybe but haven't been able to actually change much of anything, not that it would seem to matter here.
I've flashed via Odin twice, cleared the cashe many times, factory reset 3 or 4 times. Am I screwed here? What else to try?
*UPDATE* I flashed back to 4.4.4 with Odin and no more issues. It appears that my device alone is completely incompatible with the new firmware.
I should also note that I tried airplane mode, safe mode, and removing the sd card with no improvements.
After hours of messing with this thing and nearly giving up, not half an hour after I post here for help, I seem to have found a solution, although hopefully not a permanent one. The problem was happening when I would touch the screen, not scrolling ever, but making selections. On a whim I turned off sound and bam, no crashes.
I would still love it if someone had some insight about this problem, or better yet a solution.
I'm not sure yet if it is just the keypress sound that is killing it, or all sounds. I never did have any issues with the stock keyboard clicks now that I think of it, only the menu press sound. In any case it's not every time it made the sound, just half the time or so. Anything anybody could add to this would be appreciated.
*Edit* Not a solution, but it did help.
Well it's not as stable as I'd hoped. More like before the first factory reset now, but still not good at all. The various sounds definitely trigger crashes quickly(menu options, volume pings, mp3 songs from sd card), but regular silenced menu presses do sometimes as well still. Phone also bootloops several times often before it can get booted stable and 100% always crashes immediately if I try to unlock the screen in the first 5-10 seconds after booting up. Not sure if I'll be able to call or text as it's too late to test that atm. I'll update tomorrow, any insight appreciated.
I would say a bad download but I don't remember if ODIN checks MD5 sums (pretty sure it does). I would do a full wipe and reflash the stock image with odin
I am 100% stock not rooted never been rooted 5.0 vzw and I have had a couple of reboots. Never ever had one on this phone before. My old note 3 was rooted but I got this replacement after the root exploits had all been closed.
ehh not all have been closed

None at the current time but CVE-2014-8609 seems like it could be some use
I spoke too soon when I said the phone was usable now. At best 5 minutes of light use as anything seems to crash it now. I did get a fresh image and used it with Odin with exactly the same result which makes me think its my phones hardware or something. Just seems crazy that it was working just fine before the update. The reason I pushed to 4.4.4 and lost root is because my phone suddenly started an issue where it would crash when making or receiving calls. It wasn't caused by any new apps or anything, just out of nowhere. I tried everything then updated as a last resort, carelessly I went to 4.4.4 instead of staying at 4.4.2 and lost chance of root, but it solved the problem I was having. I wonder if the issue is related somehow.
I was able to odin back to 4.4.4 and it's working fine so far, I assumed that you would not be able to revert back like the last ota and just tried it as a nothing to lose last effort. This is very important news to anybody that is having major issues with 5.0. Maybe, just maybe I'll try it again if they make an update patch for reported issues.
But for now, 4.4.4 it is for me.
VZW Note 3 update to Lollipop
I just finished the Lollipop update and my phone is working great for the past 30 minutes. Seems a little slower then usual but have had no issues besides my phone locking up after downloading the update, may have been due to my phone running down to 14%, but after removing the battery for 20 secs and putting it back on, phone came back on, I plugged into charger and started the update. Will post later if I have any issues.
I have been trying unsuccessfully through odin to downgrade but it keeps failing in odin, I downloaded the official firmware from sammobile.
Just curious if u r tried reinstalling newer odin? Try different USB port and cable. At this point maybe even try different pc if u have access to 1
Hello there xda.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM910F.
So what is happening to my phone is that whenever I am in any random app lets say reddit or even chrome for example. It will like freeze for a minute or two and then unfreeze.
In more extreme cases it will reboot.
So this happened randomly because I flashed a Stock unbloated 5.1.1 ROM from here back in december and everything was working smoothly and stuff. I had xposed installed and all my apps. Then in February it started with this random freeze/reboot. I had not installed anything else apart from what I had for the last 3 months.
So I restarted the phone, changed the battery and stuff to see whether that will fix it. However it didn't. So I formatted the phone (the soft type) just so I can install another ROM. So I tried another ROM, flashed the correct CP and BL and stuff and then just installed chrome and whatsapp. After an hour or two the same thing happened. So this time I factory reset he phone, like a complete wipe and I installed the unbloated ROM once again with few apps. Same thing happened...
So my last resort was to install Cyonagen Mod. After an hour or two same thing happened...
I don't know what is the problem. I read about some peoples phones emmc failing and thus the freezing, but I am not sure yet.
Please could you guys explain what I should do to fix this?
Thank in advance!
I have the same problem. Starting on mid january. I'm on stock 5.1.1 with root and twrp recovery
Tried backup and factory reset
I went back to stock after I factory reset the phone. And still had the same problems.
People say that its a hardware problem... So I guess I'll have to send it back to Samsung soon.
I think I tripped the knox. I just have to unroot and get it back once again to stock and send it back. I hope that they accept it.
i have the same problem. my model is SM-N910W8 and I bought it from 2nd hand, so no receipt and no prove of purchase.
can I still send it back to samsung to fix it?
same problem as you and now my phone died completely .
my phone was 4 months and he has not supported any longer he died naturally lol.
my operator gave me another free under warranty because the phone had a faulty motherboard and after several back galaxy note 4
This started happening to me a week or so ago and my phone just got stuck in a boot loop after it froze and rebooted. I'm on the latest stock firmware. Tried factory reset, reflashed stock firmware, nothing helps. It still reboots (sometimes it almost gets booted completely, other times it reboots after 2 seconds.
Just disable finger print. Yes that magic feature offered by Samsung is causing more hungry that happiness since S5

Many thanks. This was driving me mad for a few days, I had tried three different ROMS, completely wiping everything. I eventually went back to stock, which I'm still running and it was the same; it would run fine for a few hours and then start to lock up until eventually it would either reboot or stop responding and I'd have to pull the battery to restart it.
Just not selecting fingerprint security doesn't work, you have to force stop "Fingerprints" in Application Manager (All).
just do not setup the finger print lol. I was having those problemes too when I bought the note 4 until someone tell "do not setup the finger print" lol, not I'm a happy user.... I hope that android 6.0.1 solve the probleme

Still having the same issue around the same time everyone else started experiencing it.
I also was rooted and had xposed installed on 4.4.4 before the issue started happening.

Hi,
I am reading from time to time here at xda about random reboots issue with ZUK Z1, so here is my short story.
I am the user of ZUK Z1 since last year at the time there was only COS12.1 and CM12.1 available. The phone was working great for the first few months, no single random reboot, even with heavy usage and tons of root tools like xposed framework, greenify (with exp. mode), amplify and other experimental tools etc. Rock solid stability, CM12.1, ZUI, COS12.1, no matter which one.
Some day, somewhere beetween feb/march this year I started to see occasional random reboots, sometimes once a week and sometimes three times a day. After the last one of this random reboots, the phone refused to boot. No recovery mode, no charging screen, no fastboot, even no access to qualcom recovery port for use with QPST and QFIL tools.
Tried to drain the battery and charge again with no success, tried to soft-restart by power button - no success. The thing that helped after phone sitting on desk for next three months, was to dissassembly the phone and reconnect battery. After this, the phone boots up again, bot the random reboot issue is back, no matter CM12.1, CM13 or COS12.1
And now the questions time:
The question is, is this a software issue after some of the updates or hardware issue?
Are there users with the random reboots problem with the newest firmware?
How to debug and catch this random reboot on the logs without ADB connected to see what is going on?
What have i done to fix the issue:
- reflash phone many times with different versions of COS12.1 and CM13
- flash fresh .zip from recovery
- flash directly from fastboot with official COS images the support page
- fsck, partirion check for errors, etc.
- formated phone by QFIL tools
- tried to track the problem from logs, but so far no value information are stored after reboot
What i am going to do:
- install ZUI 1.6 to verify that the issue comes back
- as much as i can, use the device with ADB logcat connected by cable, to catch the occasional reboot
- recompile kernel with enabled options to store crash reason after reboot ( kernel pstore feature or last_kmsg )
I am in the same situation as you, investigating....
Please update your results, very interested to find if software or hardware problems....
Thank you.
Carlos
Are you restoring apps after you flash your phone? If so, try not to. Just install basic apps you need and see if problem persists, since Google restores app with it's data.
Phone rebooted in recovery, so I think it's a hardware problem.
Phone is traveling to China again.
After what perio of time your problems started? I have my z1 for 2 weeks and it works perfect. I keep it on heavy usage for a few hours daily.

Hello,
I'm in the same situation !
My phone randomly reboots and also freeze (have to do an hard reset).
Have you find any solution ?
I am also having this issue... I will probably send it for the warranty. I have tried a few different roms, even restored back to CyanogenOS and the reboots continued...
I got mine since October, haven't had any reboots so far.
I'm running the latest update from cos without root or custom rom.
Seems like a hardware issue to me, I have tried everything software side.
same issue
I'm also having the same issue,any fixes??
Random reboots just stopped happening on my device a week ago. Before that I was trying different ROMs and flashed different versions of TWRP but the reboots were still happening. Then the reboots just stopped from happening and now everything is working perfect. I think it is a hardware fault. Probably some electronics (cables or what not) on my device are now having contact but were not having it before, I don't know. But if you are experiencing rebooting issues, just send your phone to the repair.
Any fix to this?
Whenever I do dirty flash, my zuk z1 random reboot twice a week. It is highly recommended to do a clean flash if you want to avoid random reboot.
Clean flash = No random reboots. @sebeqone
Hi all, earlier this morning, my phone was working perfectly fine. Somehow, 5 mins later after checking my phone, the screen was unable to be switched on, so I decided to hold onto my power button. My phone came alive subsequently, but all my apps were missing, and all that's left were the MIUI apps. I've attempted to reflash 10.3.15 xiaomi.eu but to no avail. My "other files" shows that it's 20gb as well, so could it be that my old files were there? Anyone has any encounters or solutions for this?

So, its been about two days since this started. The device randomly get stuck in a restart loop for a few minutes and then get back to normal. I havent installed any app for like 1 week.
Is there a way to identify what's causing it? I'm asking this because I want hard reset to be my last option.
