Please help...I have read through a lot and still have not found a solution.
My wife and I both have had t989's for about 2 months and love them. However my battery started dying extremely fast and don't know what to do. I know it is not the battery because I have swapped back and forth between my wife and I and isolated it to the phone itself. I have read all the tips and tricks (turn off wifi, gps, background syncing, etc.) and even turned on airplane mode and here is a 2 hour example of going from 100% to 72% with nothing running and never touching the screen.
Please help!!!
I have tried to post screenshots of battery stats and CPU spy but the forum won't allow me to share outside links....
My best guess is a rogue app running in the background. Have a look at the app list and if you can't figure it out try a factory reset
I have done 2 factory resets to no avail
If you were willing to factory reset twice, trying odin back to stock gb and run that for a few days, see if the problem persists.
I think its the bloatware running in the background, it happen the same thing to me, but after i root my phone i started erasing all kind of apps and my batt got better

I have gone back to gb stock via odin as well as removed all the t-mobile bloatware referencing the post on what's safe to remove.
Though I don't know if it completely went back to stock as it still had some media on the phone.
Can anyone point me to a reference on how to do a true blue clean wipe and fresh install of the phone?

Warning, the guide I'm about to post will erase EVERYTHING, so do a backup
1. Boot into cwm
2. Factory Reset x3
3. Mounts and storage
4. Format system x3
5. Format emmc x3
6. Format sdcard x3
7. Reboot into download mode and Odin stock
Sounds like a kernel wakelock. Download better battery stats and let it run in the background for an hour or so. Afterwards you will be be able to see which applications/processes are hogging up resources.

I followed the following instructions and followed stock install from FAQ section and still doing it. I called samsung today since it has been less than 90 days. Anything I should do in terms of wiping it clean before sending it back or should it be fine as it is?

As long as you odin'd back to stock, the counter says no, and you have put stock 3e recovery back on it you are good.

I'm on stocked JB 4.1 with root active. I had installed some apps, like app2sd, busybox and airdroid. Just after this I did a reboot into recovery then
1) clear cache
2) clear daviak cache,
3) clear battery stats
4) fix permissions
5) reboot into system.
Just after following the above process my note 2 keeps on rebooting from Samsung N7100 boot logo to homescreen for (2 sec) and then again reboot.
I can't find a way to understand what went wrong please someone help me.
Go to download mode and flash rom again is the only way

happened to me couple of times. just took out the battery, and clipped it back again. i'm running on stock rom and no tweaks; first encountered after updating with multitasking.
for peace of mind, flash the rom and it should fix the problem. :victory:
@carlo I already tried that and which didn't work.
Later that day I did a nandroid backup and then restored to factory reset, and later recovered specific data with TB. I have used S2 and SNexus in the past and never is that such a thing happened forget Stock not even with Custom Roms.
Though I still wish to know what is triggering it to go into such kind of limitless Loop anyone?
when you restored to factory reset, did you still experience the loops? if so, might be time to take it to warranty and them check your unit.
but if doesn't, say a day of use, and no issues, then it could be triggered by something in your backed up tweaks and apps which you can just experiment on to ID what could be causing the issue.
*a friend however had similar issues like yours, but after a day or so of tinkering with his note2, we found out that it was his cheap TPU case that was causing the problem. it was a bit too tight! there were no cutouts for his volume and power buttons, so somehow the grip he has on the unit triggers the unit go wacko.
strange but true. no more issues with his note on capdase case with no changes on software and settings.
hope you get your issues figured out soon.
cheers!
@carlo: as soon as I did factory reset everything is well, no more boot loops.
I'm not using any case anyway. But I think it's because of davik cache. I'm not gonna do that again :-[

After playing with the Cyanogenmod 10 nightly, I was missing some of the Samsung Stock items so went to the Jellybean 4.1.2 Stock ROM for my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 (n7100) via ODIN. As I rebooted I had a panic moment because it kept looping between the Samsung Logo and a floating purple blob. So I tried going back into the Clockword MOD option (Power / Home / PowerUp) and ran a the System Clean / Factory reset. Devices then booted just fine.
I'd like to start by apologizing for what is probably the 9,000th "help, I've bricked my phone!" thread. I did some searching, and while I found many, I wasn't able to find one that both dealt with my specific issue, and did so assuming a level of newbishness appropriate for me.
Months ago, I rooted my AT&T Galaxy SIII, and installed CM10. It's been all candy and rainbows since. This morning, I somewhat foolishly decided to update from a nightly I installed in October/November, to the January 7 CM 10.1 nightly, using the built-in updater I had previously used to switch to a nightly.
It worked...sort of. I guess I should have cleared my cache or something ahead of time, because almost all of my GAPPS stopped working. Woops! Figuring that I should probably stop dicking around with my phone until I learned a bit more, I just went back and told the phone to switch back to the nightly I from October/November that I was previously using.
It didn't work. My phone now reaches the CM boot animation and just...sits there. And sits there. And sits there. To complicate the issue, I cannot get the phone to boot into recovery mode (although admittedly, I'm too thick to know what I'm meant to do once I'm there anyway). I CAN get the phone into download mode, but not being sure what I should do there, I thought it best to consult you all on what to do next.
I'm happy to give any additional information needed, and I hope it goes without saying that I am extremely thankful for any help you all can offer.
Try to get it back into recovery by taking the battery out, putting it back in and then holding volume up, home, and power. If you are sure you can't get it into Recovery, but know for sure you can get it into Download, go into Download and flash stock and go from there. These aren't bricks. These are just whoops. Lol.
If you can reach download mode, you'll be okay. What you want to do is use Odin to flash a rooted stock image; from there, you should be able to get back to a point where you can re-install a custom recovery of your choice and try flashing your favourite ROM again.
For the record, it's always a good idea to clear data/cache when changing ROMs, or changing between major revisions of a ROM (such as CM10 -> CM10.1) to avoid this sort of problem.
Actually, you should always wipe cache and dalvik when flashing the update. If it is a major update like 4.1.2 to 4.2.1, then you should wipe cache, wipe dalvik, Factory Reset, Format System then flash your ROM.
Move important files to SD using twrp file manager. Put rom on SD with gapps. Format internal, wipe caches, format system, factory reset, load ROM, load gapps. Reboot.

I did this, being careful to follow all the instructions provided. Odin seemed to think everything worked, and after about 10 minutes, it rebooted the phone.
However, it still gets stuck. Now, since CM is no longer installed, it just sits at the SAMSUNG logo forever.
It still boots into download mode, and will now boot into recovery as well. Any suggestions?

Worked like a charm, thanks! Can't believe after all that trouble, I didn't think to do that myself. >.<
I've got a T-Mobile Note 3 that I picked it up on launch day last Thursday at a T-mobile store. I proceeded to root the phone with Odin, then restore via Titanium Backup and then fix the backup with "restorecon -R -v /data". Life has been great until last night. Initially I got a circle with a line through it instead of the mobile signal and my cellular link would not connect, but my wifi was fine. When the problem was sill occurring this morning I figured it was an odd cellular problem and rebooted the phone this morning when it persisted. Now the phone is rebooting a few minutes after it completes booting.
It will boot normally, then I'll unlock the phone and get my window manager (Holo)...then I'll get the error "Process system isn't responding. Do you want to close it?". Then I get the error "Unfortunately, Favorite Apps has stopped." Regardless whether I interact with those error messages the phone then reboots a minute later. I have *not* done a restore from CWM ever and the phone doesn't seem to have suffered any physical damage.
The things I've tried include:
*) power down, remove sdcard, then reboot
*) power down, remove sim card, then reboot
*) power down, remove sim card, remove sdcard, then reboot
*) clear cache, then reboot
*) clear dalvik-cache, then reboot
*) clear dalvik-cache and cache, then reboot
*) clear dalvik-cache, clean cache, then wipe to factory, then reboot
In all the above scenarios nothing has changed. The phone reboots after it completes booting.
In the past, I've rooted and flashed on a G1, a G2, and an S3. I've bricked my S3 that had to be repaired via JTAG. This reboot problem with my Note 3 is completely unlike any of the things I've seen with previous phones.
I've read through some of the other threads about reboot loops, but all the threads I've read were caused by a CWM restore and have no solution yet.
Does anyone know the cause of this and what could fix it?

I don't believe it was an app that was restored because the restore had run perfectly for 5 full days. I completed the restore last Thursday...that's what makes this so unusual.
Do you know where to get the stock zips to use with Odin?

There's some stock Odin tar files in the Android development forum. Download and flash using Odin. Once it reboots, remove battery and manually boot into stock recovery and do a factory reset/wipe. Reboot and it should work.

It looks as if the stock tar in zip format (N900TUVUBMI7_N900TTMBBMI7_TMB.zip) can be downloaded from either of these links:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2465764 (faster download link)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2468275 (slow download link)
I just finished downloading from the first link and after extracting the zip file I have these files:
N900TUVUBMI7_N900TTMBBMI7_N900TUVUBMI7_HOME.tar.md5
SS_DL.dll
This seems like an obvious thing, but want to ask because of how odd this problem is: Do I simply flash the "N900TUVUBMI7_N900TTMBBMI7_N900TUVUBMI7_HOME.tar.md5" file the same way that I flashed the CWM through Odin?
Yes, but IIRC, just uncheck reboot, reboot manually into recovery, then wipe, factory reset, etc. Pull your battery, reboot. Check the TWRP thread, it has exact directions.

Ok, I flashed with Odin then once it completed I got the "PASS!" status in Odin. I shut down Odin, pulled the battery from the Note 3, then allowed the phone to boot. There was a "booting recovery" message in blue at the top of the screen before the phone booted, then it booted to the "samsung logo", then the animated circular logo, then the white screen with the "T-Mobile 4G LTE" logo, then rebooted. The second boot, it did the same thing but stayed on the "T-Mobile 4G LTE" screen for many minutes...then it seemed as if it was completing it's reboot because I got the notification bar with the time and the circle with the line through it for the cell signal strength. I got the same error when the phone seemed to have completed booting, then a reboot. Now it's back to the same place it started in it's rebooting cycle.
This makes absolutely no sense at all. If I'd have done a CWM restore then I could understand that...but there's no reason for this that I can see. The phone acts as if it was knocked off of the T-Mobile network and now it finishes it's booting cycle long enough to be rebooted.
So now I have a useless Note 3. I'm game for taking the phone back to the T-Mobile store and requesting that they replace the phone, which they probably would, but I have no guarantee that this wouldn't happen again. I'm open to suggestions as long as they don't cause me to brick my phone completely.
I finished installing TWRP and darthrom successfully. However, after the darthrom finishes booting I have the exact same problem with the phone rebooting that the stock ROM had.
I'm back to square one.
I'm open to suggestions.

I saw a couple threads last night when I was searching around on the web about other models of phones with SIM socket and SIM card issues. I'm beginning to think that my issue is hardware-related, and not software. I did another wipe last night based on this thread's post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46157872&postcount=6&nocache=1&z=7848000959493220
Instead of simply wiping, I formatted /data/, then wiped, then I flashed on the stock ROM, then flashed on the darth rom. I got slightly different results once the phone was done with it's firstboot - it kept giving me the error that a new SIM card had been installed and the phone needed to be rebooted. This causes me to suspect the physical hardware of my Note 3 or the SIM card. I have ruled out the SIM card because I've been using it in my old G2 since this started, via an adapter for the G2's SIM socket, and it's been fine. I'm planning on taking the phone to T-Mobile today and seeing what they can sort out with either a SIM exchange or phone exchange.
The note 3 misbehaved the same way while in the T-Mobile store. They swapped the phone out under warranty after asking only the basic questions and trying a factory reset. The same SIM card in the new note 3 works fine.
I'm on the same boat. Got my Note 3 this morning, rooted an hour ago with CMW, made backup and flashed Stock ROM from Jovy. Result: bootloop. Restore backup and still on bootloop. DLing the Odin stock .tar to see if it helps. Any more suggestions?
Edit: After flashing with Odin the stock tar from Sammy all it's good...at least for now.

Interesting...it sounds like you had the boot loop that many others have had...it's cool to hear that you got it fixed. I think my problem was hardware-based since the phone completed it's boot process and *then* had issues. Luckily T-Mobile was there for me and helped out.

I know what you mean as far as waiting for a stable recovery. If it's any help, I've decided to stay far away from the recovery restore and simply use Titanium backup to do restores. It's more work than a nandroid recovery, but it reliably does it's job well for me.

Well...I'm doing a lot of reading. I can't stand this "stock look" and me, every time I root a phone, I always do my own modifications within the ROM I choose to flash. SystemUI and apk's. I only change the .png's, therefore, getting the visual look I want/like. Always done it with certain ROMs/Themes. I downloaded Jovy's stock ROM and made the visual changes I wanted. I flashed and got into that bootloop scenario. Restore backup with CWM provided by Zedomax and made it worse. I think the problem is recovery (at least from what I've read). In this case, CWM been less unstable than TWRP. I f you read a bit around, must ppl if not all, had the "dead bootloop" issue with TWRP. I haven't read from anybody yet having the "dead bootloop" with CWM. Ppl with CWM that flashed their backup and got that bootloop, fixed it flashing back to stock, where ppl that had TWRP have tried to flash back to stock and their phones never boot completely
Again...imma wait a little more for good reports as far as recovery goes!
Bigbiff has a file he uploaded, it may be a fix for the bootlooping issue. You'd be the first to try at this point. It's linked below, but the entire thread is in the OG development of tmobile.

I've never seen so many issues with a brand new flagship phone before. Makes me think it wasn't tested fully before release. I mean all these problems!
Even though I returned my N3 after I tried restoring and getting bootloop of death, I feel this model is really flawed. Hearing new things everyday.
So basically I did this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2538991
But unfortunately, I hadn't realized that the mobile hotspot was sealed up in that update. So I looked it up, and saw that someone had recommended this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48326067
So I went into TWRP and installed it. But that didn't work. When I booted back up EVERY app was crashing immediately except the stock Samsung apps (Messaging, Email, etc.). I tried to reverse it with the original framework-res.apk but when I did, the phone would get stuck at the AT&T logo (which was silent). I went back and forth a few times (when I applied that tethering mod, the phone would boot; when I tried to reverse it, it wouldn't), then did a factory reset in TWRP. After that, the phone booted, but the Setup Wizard would crash. So I did a Nandroid restore in TWRP and now the phone hangs at the AT&T logo no matter what I do.
My question is, what can I do now? I have a replacement device coming through warranty just in case, but it would be much better to just fix this one. However, I want to be certain and not HARD brick the phone...
I have never been able to restore a stock 4.3 nandroid without everything crashing. I have always had to go back into recovery and wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache and dalvik cache then reboot and go through the whole setup process again. If that doesn't work you could try installing the stock debloat ROM from this thread. That's what I am running and it works great. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2540998

if you can get back to twrp , clear everything then flash the official correct file that yu want then see if that works...restore your apps/data after a clean refresh for your phone
remember panicking and being paranoid with flashing/rooting is not a a good idea, always rethink what you did wrong, let the phone cool down, research know what you re doing then fix it
dont rush, cuz rushing leads to bricks (learned from experience from day 1 with root)

Nothing should be crashing while you are on the lock screen so just hold the power button until the power menu appears and select power off. Once it powers off hold the volume up, home button and power button until you see the blue words in the upper left corner of the screen I believe it says loading recovery. Release the power button but continue holding the other 2 buttons until recovery loads. Now wipe data, cache and under advanced wipe dalvik cache. Reboot and everything should quit crashing but you will have to setup your account and apps again. That is the only way that I can get stock touchwiz 4.3 nandroids to work.

Hi guys, I've been looking for a solution for almost a week for my n7100 international version and I am tired of trying all the solutions which none of them worked. If you have any tiny idea crumb it will be welcomed because I'm out of ideas.
I can summarize the problems like this;
I was using DN3 RC2 rom, it was very stable and it had a very good battery life (almost 4 days). Everything started with choosing Ultra Power Saving mode. I realized that my battery was draining too quickly right after I choosed Ultra power saving mode. I did not care about this and changed battery with the fully charged one. I turned on the phone disable the ultra power saving mode but not a single change, it is still consuming the battery like it never did before. I disabled everything,took the phone to flight mode but no solution. (6 hours in flight mode, everything disabled, %25 battery consumption, normally it was %1 max %2).
I reset the phone, wipe phone/cache, changed to stock rom, reflashed with other roms without gapps but it did not work. The only single thing common is "No Deep Sleep" even with stock rom nothing installed, furthermore I tried not to touch the phone after flashing, I mean it stayed in very first screen which is choosing language of the phone, but it didnt work either.
While dealing with this power problem, I noticed that I have other problems like recovery screen freezes and resets to recovery screens after freezing event occured.
-Recovery screen (tried all versions philz touch, TWRP, original CWM) freezes at random times, mostly after 15 seconds or 6-7 choices. Only Philz Touch 5.xx version worked without freezing, all other recovery screens freeze even with their latest versions.
And final problem is usb recognition, I couldnt make any PC,Mac,linux (with kies, without kies, with generic android drivers, without generic drivers, with many cables including the original which is still working with other phones) to recognize note 2. Only in download/odin mode it is working so I can flash the stock bootloader or other roms.
Because of my recklessness, by installing stock 4.4.2 rom, and then flashing again with custom roms knox warranty void counter increased to 1. So I am without samsung warranty now. I am still using phone with DN3 V5 with No Deep Sleep, No Usb Recognition, Terrible Battery Life.
I think that this is now beyond software issue and something in hardware should be changed. What are your opinions?
Thanks to all participants in advance!
Have you tried wiping everything (system, cache etc but NOT efs) in recovery then flashing stock with odin? Remember to back up first though...

Yeah, the OP didnt mention anything about wiping/reformatting/resetting. In addition to the above, also try wiping dalvik cache.
Stuff to try...
1) Wipe Dalvik Cache and cache.
2) Factory reset.
3) Mega wipe then flash stock ROM through ODIN.
4) Flash another ROM (Since ODIN is working.)

thanks for the advice, I ve systematically done wiping before and after all flashing actions. But none of them worked.

Unfortunately these are so basic actions(all kind of wiping, flashing another rom, flashing stock rom) that I ve done in first place and they didnt work out.
