Reboot Loop NEW FINDINGS

Hey guys, my gnex has just been stricken (for the second time) by the boot loop. Managed to fix it last time with a flash of the google image, but this time it isnt working.
Same as usual, mine features the greyed out wifi toggle as well, and reboots every time the screen goes off (which makes sense that I've been noticing it go off every 2 minutes).
I have found that the device will not reboot if it is plugged in and set in the dev options to "stay awake" while charging. This seems to keep it running, same if I set the time-out to longer. My theory has to do with the distribution of power...I think that something is telling the phone it doesn't have enough power to function.
Like everyone else I've done endless factory resets, flashed the goog image and such and such to no avail. Currently stock but I left my bootloader unlocked atm. I can still boot into recov and everything and even flash other roms.
Has anyone else noticed this, or could someone who is also having the problem confirm the screen thing?
I think last time I posted I was on winmo, missed this forum.

Bump? Anyone else having this issue?

Just send it in for warranty. I sent mine in and Samsung exchanged the phone

I havent been paying attention, are many people having this issue? It sounds scary. Were you on a custom rom when this started?

My Nexus has been stuck on "Turning WiFi on.." since I've had it. It would also constantly boot loop itself whenever the screen went off. I flashed the new AOKP build to avoid this issue, however, the WiFi still does not work If I'm ever on stock again, I'll give stay awake a shot.
I live in the U.S. with the GSM GNex, so warranty is out of the question unfortunately.

Fixed the loop by flashing aopk again with franco's kernel. Brilliant but my Wifi is still messed up. I flashed a new baseband XXKL1 and no improvements. I'm gonna just wait it out for a bit because I've seen some threads elsewhere where that has actually worked, but who knows. I'll probably cave and send it out soon.

Yes and no. It happened twice and the second time I fixed it by going FROM stock to AOPK with included kernel. Now it happened on THAT setup so I went back to stock and no dice. Its a very weird problem....

I got exactly the same problem. Wifi didn't work (grey toggle) so I tried to bring the warranty conditions back, but got an endless boot each time screen goes off.

Try booting into the bootloader and using the gnex toolkit to go back to stock and relock. Good luck. Logcat isnt even logging my wifi issues, its like my wifi adapter was removed entirely.

That's what I did, I used the toolkit to go back to stock and after that I got those annoying reboot. Of course wifi doesn't work anyway... That's really frustrating

I have a Desire Z by my side, but of course I want my Gnex back as new. The only thing that scares me is the warranty. I'm not sure if it's still valid. I mean, apparently there's no sign of root/bootloaderunlocked, but how can I explain that suddenly my phone has started rebooting itself without any reasons?

Yeah, only option is to just try and see what happens.

[Q] FK09 Modem Crash

Hello All,
Searched around.. no fix.
Just installed the FK09-- runs awesome. Every so often (on 3G--unsure if related), I get a modem crash. Says do not touch anything for 10 minutes, then reboots to a modem crash cp dump page.
I pull battery and try to turn on and goes back to cp dump upload page. If I plug in the phone, then turn on, it goes away. This leads me to believe it might be a battery issue?
I tried wiping dalvik/cache in clockwork, then reflashing FK09 kernel. I also did the one-click FK09 again also, problem still persists.
Anyone know what this could be? Any fix suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

man.. i've tried a bunch of stuff. still doing it

Million dollar question - which package for FK09 did you flash?
And have you tried the full restore yet?

i just tried the original tar (http://www.sxtpdevelopers.com/showthread.php?53-jb-odin-tar-sph-d710-fk09) .. before that was using one-click, both rooted restore and rooted nodata. same problem.

Well... wouldn't hurt to do the spin test with your battery. If it spins easily get it replaced.
Other thing to consider is dumping a logcat via ADB and attach here.

yeah it spins--going to stop by sprint store on way home and hope they have an extra laying around.
just doesnt happen on any other rom/modem/kernel combination. and im a flash-a-holic.
i've already switched roms, but if sum1 wants the logcat, i'd be willing to go back and post it.
thanks for reply.

UPDATE:
I lied.. phone crashed running a stock-rooted FH13. Im gonna blame all of this on bad battery...crashed with no error messages.

This happened once, for the first time this morning, I almost thought it had to do with an email I got at the time (like maybe I it was a virus), I let the report go to 100% then did the battery pull and everything has been since... glad to see I wasn't the only one this happened to.

yeah. never happened before yesterday. first time after being on FK09-- popup comes up RILNotifier saying something about modem crash dont touch anything for 10 min.. then goes to recovery like screen with a percentage count to 100.. nothing happens. waited a bit, finally pulled battery and tried restarting. goes back to dump recovery like screen. only fix for me now is to plug it in while turning it on.
this modem crash only happens when on battery. has not happened at all today while plugged in.. can recreate error usually after about 3-10 min of surfing internet/playing game on phone when not plugged in. hopefully new battery fixes.. or asurion is getting my aged epic pretty quick here.

Just got this today. Was charging battery to move to Agat recovery and (and maybe Wizzing Beanis ROM), when I went to get my phone that should have been at %100, it was on the CRASH CP dialog. Almost looks like the ODIN dialog. When I restarted it was at 78%. Just replaced my Battery 5 weeks ago. BUT I really believe ICS screwed this battery up already. Gonna make the switch to the ROM before I replace the battery. Currently on FK09 ROM with FK23 Modem and Kernal- been using it since the day it was avail to all of us. Might just be an FK09 thing

Galaxy Note N7100 keeps shutting off by itself

Hi,
I have a Vietnam made Galaxy Note N7100 which is almost not usable, unit does not comes with any warranty as it is an export set. It runs on the default ROM and is not rooted. Initially the unit works well for a few hours after installing some apps and did some customisation, after I locked the phone, the phone seems to go into deep sleep. I'm not even able to shut off the phone. Worse still, taking out the battery and put in back after mins do not work. To turn the set on again, I got to take out the battery for a few hours or so, then I can start the unit again.
I initially thought it might be some software conflict, I did a factory reset and leave the phone there for a while, the issue persisted.
It is also not the battery issue as I have use the same battery on another N7100 and it works well.
Is there any advice on what can I do to remedy this issue?
Thanks

This came to me as well, but the set auto shut off before I can even root the unit.

Have a fix for you guys
I had the same problem after some messed up rom flash. If my Note 2's screen goes off for more than 10 seconds, I wouldn't be able to wake it back up without reboot... It was basically in an unusable state. Luckily after 2 whole days of digging I've found the solution.
1. Go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1915386
2. Scroll about 1/3rd of the way down and look for the attachment "BOOTLOADER_N7100.zip"
3. Flash the BOOTLOADER_N7100.zip with Odin using the Bootloader field
That's it!
Good luck guys. I created an account specifically to answer this question. It was a major pain in the ass finding a fix for this problem so I wanted to make sure I spread the fix on this issue so others don't need to suffer through the same thing.

SOS please
i now have the same issue where i tried the liquid rom on my n7100...as soon as it installed my phone started switching itself off within 5 secs and show a red battery light..and no love nor money can I get it on without rebooting..
i tried the bootloader in Odin after re installing the stock rom..but as soon as i select start..it fails??
Anything else?

I am also experiencing shutdowns with my Vietnam unit. I have 4.1.2 original ROM and I tried many possibilities to solve it. No success. The phone shuts off if I start an online radio (or tunein radio) and after max 2 min it shuts off. Doesn't matter if is on data plan or through router.

Had a problem of the phone freezing and had to restart the phone. Then again it would freeze after some time. Flashed stock rom with bootloader and pit but it still persisted. Sent it to the service centre and got my phone back yesterday after mb change. The new mb is with the newer firmware.

This is a real problem with the Galaxy Note 2. I built a quick site to showcase the problem and to post a video that shows exactly what is happening.

note 2 switching off by its self
Had same problem, I switched of data, wi-fi bleutooth, gps, switched them on again 1 at a time.
Phone worked ok untill bluetooth was on again, then it shut down. I think the problem is with Bt.
I emailed samsung support who suggested i connect to kies to check i had latest firmware but i
knew i had, they also suggested a factory data restset, (settings- back up and reset- factory data reset).
Did this last week phone has been working fine since.
Hope this helps.

I took it to a repair shop, where I was told to send it to Samsung to do a heavy-duty root. The power button does need to be replaced because there is no spring when you push down on it. I have no idea if there's a root glitch. Has anyone sent their phone to Samsung? What happened? Are there alternatives?
Thank you!

It was amazing, I had the same problem but all i did was open up the back up undoing all the tiny screws and then took a can on compressed air and sprayed out the power button and its been working for more than a month now with the problem completely gone! try that first before sending to sammy.

Ok I am in the same boat. My device does not boot up, it will get to Samsung logo and restart half the time and the other half just vibrates every 2 seconds. I removed the battery while plugged in and it still vibrates. I took it apart and blew the power button with compressed air and nothing. Here is the funny thing if I bang the hell out of it, it almost boots up. Is there something that I can do less than sending it to Sammy ? If not I will sell it on craigslist for parts.

Same thing here. Only way to get it to power on is by hitting it, the harder the better it seems. After it turns on, touching the power button will make it go in to the restart loop 90% of the time. This sucks!
For me this started after I dropped my phone...with the case on and on carpet. I have also opened it up and sprayed with compressed air to no avail.

Hi Folks,
I had the same problem, the problem started when I dropped my fone on carpeted floor, here are symptoms
Fone restarts on its own, start the boot, inbetween the boot starts again, then, keeps vibrating every two seconds, you have to pull the battery out to stop it,
As soon as you put the battery back in, it restarts, again getting stuck, and then vibrating every two secods,
Here is what i did
- Cursed Samsung for making a sh***y phone - Didnt work
- Smacked my phone with whatever I could fine - Didnt work
- Opened all the screws up, took apart phone, pulled out the power button module (pcb), noticed power button was loose,put some glue into it, dried it, put it back, & ITS BEEN WORKING SINCE THEN ! It was a hardware fault, its not software !
Just my two cents, it worked in my case, I cannot guarantee if it will in your case too, try at your own risk !!

Same issue with SGH-M919. I was rooted and the rom I tried to use wouldn't work because the kernel caused some issues so I figured I would go back to stock. The device wouldn't go into recovery mode, so I flashed the stock rom via Odin. After the ROM loaded, the phone reset and I saw the Samsung screen then it rebooted and so on each time. It's not the power button as it works, has the spring feel to it and the phone would come one by itself if it was broken. So what can I do or am I in trouble?
Also, the phone will vibrate every 2 seconds

Sure, the power button will "work", but if it's constantly vibrating and rebooting, it's probably an issue with the power button. Do what it shows in the video I posted, and if you do it right it'll probably fix it. I gad to attempt it twice as it didn't fix it the first time, but it's been like 4 months and I haven't had an issue since.

Thank you but it was the kernel causing problems. Somehow, the new ROM messed up the partitions and subsequently required a full wipe including all data then I flashed the stock ROM back via Odin and it was fine. I rooted it again and flashed Bliss Pop 1.8 and I love that ROM. No issues at all. Thanks for the help. I'm slowly learning about ROMs and Linux etc.. I appreciate the help. Does anyone have any advice as to how I can learn more??? Where do I post to get past this 10 posts rule???

Wow I just realized that post was from a week ago and that was for my girls S4. We got rid of it anyway. My response was regarding my Sprint LG G3 which I am slowly mastering.

Same thing here but here i have a Lenovo …idk what to do

Galaxy S3 bricked... sometimes??

So, lately my phone has been acting kinda weird.. Basically, it'll shut off on it's own, no matter what my battery level or if I'm on the charger, its pretty random. When I go to turn it on, it shows me the samsung logo and shuts off after about 3 seconds of the galaxy s3 logo. It does the same in download mode and recovery. The phone will stay off and do that for an hour or more, and then itll turn on and be all dandy again for hours or at least another day. I'm going to take off all my pictures on the sdcard and odin back to stock as soon as possible for warranty, but does this sound like a hardware failure or software? I read about the s3 sudden death syndrome, but this one isnt permanent. Any ideas?

I agree with your assessments.

I'd wonder about overheating or a bad battery.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

what's your setup as of right now?

Beware if it shuts down when your flashing back to stock in the middle of the process it may never turn back on.

It might be the kernel that came with the ROM you installed. I used to have problem with ktoon kernel.

I'm running Darthstalker XI, the problem happened with both the stock kernel and the faux samsung kernel. The battery is fine, its completely flat with no bumps or humps. I managed to turn it on once yesterday but as I was getting ready to transfer over the files the phone shut off and didn't start again. I'll try to get it running tomorrow.
EDIT: Now that I think about it, the problem happened when I dirty flashed XI over X. Afterwards I did a wipe and clean install of X1 and the problem persisted. Has anyone else on Darthstalker/UDVLJA based roms had this?
EDIT2: Well after being on the charger all day, I noticed that the green samsung battery icon was on the screen, something it only does when it's about to turn on properly. I instantly pulled out the sdcard and put the latest cm10 nightly and gapps on there and I booted to recovery, wiped, and flashed them right up, no issues. I booted just fine, I signed up and I was downloading youtube, latest now updates etc (bare essentials).... and it shut off again. I'm positive now that it's a hardware failure

I instantly pulled out the sdcard and put the latest cm10 nightly and gapps on there and I booted to recovery, wiped, and flashed them right up, no issues. I booted just fine, I signed up and I was downloading youtube, latest now updates etc (bare essentials).... and it shut off again. I'm positive now that it's a hardware failure

If you have an app that controls kernel voltage that is still set up for set on boot and the voltage is too low when it boots or is granted root it'll kill it in this manner. Otherwise your phone is [email protected]#

I'd wager that if any overclocking/undervolting was done, it was disabled at the onset of problems. OP seems smarter than orangutan.

I used the phone for work, not play, no overclocking was done neither was any undervolting. I ran stock kernel settings.

I remember a time when XDA had helpful answers and users weren't reduced to insults. I've been around a couple years, hacked more phones than I can count and flashed hundreds of roms in my days, back when everything was still done in adb and terminal emulator. It's no wonder a lot of decent user has started moving over to rootzwiki
