Hey guys, I bought a Galaxy Nexus almost a week back but as its not launched officially in India its not under warranty and so I can't get it replaced.
Out of the box it came with ICS. Everything was going fine including Bluetooth file transfers. But the phone went to a boot loop (stuck at boot animation) when I tried to activate Bluetooth. Mind you that Bluetooth had been working fine, I got this issue all of a sudden.
I went into recovery mode and recovered my phone but all data was lost.
Later I updated to official stock ICS. Again the Bluetooth worked fine for few days and later suddenly went into a boot loop. I recovered my phone but this time too lost all my data.
Now I'm obviously very scared to use Bluetooth. Some people say that its a faulty firmware and I should flash another firmware.
What shall I do? Could this really be a firmware issue? And if yes then which firmware shall I flash and how to flash?
Currently I'm on stock JB on my GSM GNex which is unrooted and has a locked boot loader.

Never heard of this. With all data lost, do you mean the /sdcard partition as well?
I'm sorry I didn't get you. GNex doesn't have a SD card slot, right?

Correct. That's why I said partition.

Well this is my first Android so I don't know much about partitions.
Well when I wipe my phone / factory reset, ALL my data gets removed including images, music, videos, contacts, messages, calendar events, 3rd party apps, etc.
Someone please help.
Bluetooth Boot Loop
Im having the same problem.. Please let me know if you found a solution.. I'll give you update if I find one myself..
The list of Android units that I have encountered this was with
2 units of Asus TF101G and 1 unit TF300T
My TF101G was fixed when I installed a Custom ROM (Revolution HD)
I'm open to rooting my phone but not to unlock the bootloader to keep the warranty..
Hard Reset fixed it but after a few days when I activate the Bluetooth it will start with the Boot Loop.. It's very frustrating to install apps and everything.
Perhaps is it related with the files I installed?
Afaik, bluetooth radio is controlled by the baseband. What version are you guys using?
Im currently using TF300T
Asus Official WW Jellybean ROM
I think It's not related with the JellyBean coz I expereienced it with ICS before when Im using TF101G
The baseband of my GNex is I9250XXLF1. I am on official JB (4.1.1) on yakjuxfw.
Please help me, this is really annoying and I'm very scared to activate Bluetooth now.

You are on the latest baseband and Android version. And since you are completely stock and the problem also manifested itself on ICS, I'm going to say you are probably having a hardware issue there.
That's really sad to hear. And as the GNex is not available officially in India, I can't get it replaced either.
BTW you said 'probably', what can be the other possibility?
Well I too have something to elaborate. Both the times (on ICS and JB), the problem occurred while activating Bluetooth from Notification Toggle (downloaded from Play Store). It's not that whenever I used Notification Toggle did the problem occur. Several times Bluetooth successfully got activated using Notification Toggle.
So as much as I feel that it could be a problem of Notification Toggle, I feel that the opposite is possible too.
Another thing is that I had downloaded a paid app for free from a torrent website. Tapatalk to be precise. Many of my friends suggested that and I wanted to try it out and so downloaded it from torrents. On both bootloop occasions, that 'pirated' copy of Tapatalk was present in my phone.
Now I have purchased Tapatalk, uninstalled that pirated copy, uninstalled Notification Toggle and now I just tried three Bluetooth transfers with my system (2 send and 1 receive) and they took place perfectly. Is it possible that the pirated copy of Tapatalk was causing the issue?
I know it's not ethical and even against the XDA rules to discuss about such pirated copies but I didn't want to hide anything when asking for a solution to my issue.

If the problem happens again, I think you have to return it to where you purchased it from as it may be a hardware defect. Let's just hope it doesn't happen again. And I know you mentioned India does not officially sell the Galaxy Nexus. All the best!

and yes, it happened to me too. Its bootloop, then i took the simcard out, then power on again, but takes a long time, only X logo for more than 10 minutes. Then its going to menu. Then, well, i check the settting, turn on the bluetooth again, bump ! it happened again.
FYI, device not rooted, bought three days ago, and its LOCKED.

Is the problem solved for you? If yes, then how?
@Kanded: Can you please tell whether it's solved or not?
The same problem with me!!
Not just in the GNex, it also happens with me in my HTC One V.. I can't find a fix anywhere on the internet? There's no one who can tell why this happens? I change ROMs but still it happens in every ROM! :crying:
I use Bluetooth for a few days... and BOOM! on one day it suddenly goes into boot loop....
That is exactly the issue I face, exactly the same.

yep same here.. very weird.. the stock firmware really blows, very buggy. cant wait to hack the crap out of it.

Same here. do you think that flashing with the pre rooted firmware will solve this?
I'm having that mode when I use internet particularly when watching videos through the internet app
same to me

excuse me for my English, I used google translator for that.
recently bought a galaxy tab 3, SM-T210 model, and since I had received costantes crashes on screen "kernel panic upload mode", already realized trading unit for the same model and still the error occurred in the new device and all this in less than a day of use.
I wonder about people who are having the same problem and if any have a solution for this since it does not find much about it on the internet.
edit.: my firmware is official Brazilian T210XXAMF5_T210ZTOAMF1_ZTO. if the official firmware from another country does not have problems please as this is also one solution.
ps.: I've done a "hard reset."

No one knows any solution yet as of now. i guess it's not on the firmware but it's on the kernel and no one wants to discuss it anymore. I don't know why,
I tried different firmwares and made so many hard reset but it is still happening to my tablet
Glad I was able to catch this before updating my software.
Will be postponing update now.

do you have antivirus and battery saving application installed? try uninstalling them. and see if there are any changes. btw.. Mine seems to work just fine now. haven't encounter the KPUM in 3 days straight. also fyi this KPUM happens all over the world.. yeah,heard that right. search "kernel panic upload mode" on twitter and see what Im talking about. (.. my tab firmware is xxamge.
I get the same message
I find that at least twice a week I switch off my Tab 3.0 7" and it will switch itself on and go into Kernal Panic Upload Mode. This will run the battery flat in 3 hours and the device gets very hot. I am mostly using Sygic and Samsung Music. I will have to ask for my money back if this keeps happening as my Tab 3 is useless with a flat battery. Very dissappointed.

Stock (AU) - not even 24 hours old
Bought mine yesterday, less than 24 hours old, have installed AVG antivirus, Glucose Buddy, NAB, Westpac & IMDB apps only. (Each of these is running on my S4 (and also on my old S2)), and got my first Kernel Panic Upload Mode a couple of minutes ago.
I did tether it to my S4 this morning, but it has been 'untethered' for the last 4 hrs prior to the panic mode thingie.
Completely stock standard - Android V 4.1.2, Kernel version 3.4.5-1256430, Build No JZ054K.T210XXAMG7
So this is a problem for all tab 3. Hope sam will fix these soon. Tab 2 is much stable
Hello to everyone
my note 2 n7105 keeps freezing wasn't doing it as much before but now its a constant problem so if someone is calling me I cant swipe to answer... I have to lock the handset and then unlock it and it works perfectly. First I thought it was something to do with the touch panel but it cant be because if I lock it then unlock it it works fine...
I downgraded last week to 4.1 so I can unlock the handset then upgraded again using the update software on the phone.. phone isn't rooted.
Any suggestions? im thinking its something to do with the firmware on the phone?
Anyone opinions or Help will be much appreciated..
Thank you so much

A few weeks after rooting with cf-autoroot I started getting a notification that my phones sim card wasn't being detected, and it prompts me to reboot. Running stock root with twrp recovery. If i dont reboot it just stays in the notification bar. If i do reboot it goes away for the time being. I still have service and phone still works as far as i can tell but something must be wrong. Some days it will happen 5 times sometimes it wont happen for a week but lately its happening a lot. Anyone having the same problem? Or does anyone know of a fix? Any help would be appreciated i haven't been able to find much on it.

Same problem here. Has been happening for quite a while. Haven't had the time to research though. However yesterday it happened while I was on a call and dropped the call. So, yeah, a problem for sure.
not enough information about the device to help.
what else do you need to know? I have the sprint version(QUALCOMM) Samsung galaxy note 4 running stock 4.4 rooted with TWRP recovery
Happens randomly to me too
Im stock not rooted and have that issue. Happens usually when im in the out skirts if a wifi network and it keeps comnecting and disconnecting

I did yes. ??
Update to the newest version of galaxy tools it reduces significantly. You can find it in the themed roms section in the Note 4 forum. When I updated I had almost no lost sim card errors. Now when I updated to lollipop I have no Sim Card errors but I do miss using exposed.
What does Galaxy Tools have to do with it?

Galaxy Tools does have settings that affect the sim card.

Galaxy Tools does have settings for the Sim Card you know. All I know that when I updated my Galaxy tools to the latest 3.0.8 version my problems went away. I am did not make the program so I am not going to tell you something I know nothing about. Just give it a try and see if it works what do you have to lose?
It's been happening to me the past couple days randomly. Just out of nowhere ever since the first time. Never did this before a couple days ago since I had the phone from launch day. Been on Xnote rc2 with AEL 7.2 kernel.
Edit: I just updated to newest galaxy tools, I'll report back on a day or 2. Strange though that it could be that because nothing has changed at all on my phone in weeks, and for this to just start out of nowhere.
Seems fine so far, updated galaxy tools to newest, and pressed unlocked SIM, whatever that does. I'll report back again if I get the SIM notification
Did you guys try new sim cards?
Please reply back with your results.

I did. Everything is fine so far. I updated to newest galaxy tools. I had pressed the SIM unlock button to see what happens. I don't even know what that did, but I haven't had no SIM detected again.
Here is the thread for galaxy tools. I updated to newest. Also the name of the app changes to idoneapps.

I am glad you had an open mind unlike some closed minded people. Sometimes you just have to experiment and find out what you added to fix your problems. Galaxy tool does unlock the Sim Card for international travel and when I updated my updated my phone to the latest 4.4.4 ROM I started having problems. So figured maybe it might have been the Galaxy tools. So I tried updating it and I have not had any no Sim card problems for almost a month now.
settings/More Networks/Mobile Networks......set Network Mode to Automatic......this is what stopped mine from doing that sim card error over and over

Tried this. Thought it might have worked but only made it about 1 day before the error reappeared.
Edit: i have also gotten a new sim and tried galaxy tools (though I'm not exactly sure what settings i was supposed to mess with). Still get the error.
My Fix
Same problem with the sim card. I'm not rooted and have not used galaxy tools. I opened up the back and re-seated the SIM card (took it all the way out and put in back in) and for the heck of it the SD as well. I haven't seen the problem yet (going on 2 weeks).
HI all...
After a week of struggling to root my Note 4, I downgraded to 5.1.1 and now have it almost reconfigured with all my apps and setting and I just received a notice to upgrade to MM.
How do I stop this? I don't want to have this phone unrooted and locked after all I just went through to get it rooted. I did a quick search but I didn't find anything specific. I am going to do some more searches but it keeps popping up to upgrade and I don't know if I can continue to delay it?
Could ANYONE please advise how I stop this or upgrade to MM safely so I don't get locked out?
Thanks
Tom

Thanks IndyRoadie!
I realized I had purchased Titanium backup on my old Note 2 so I reinstalled it and I figured out how to freeze the update settings.
Rooting is NOT like riding a bicycle. You DO forget how to do it!
Thanks again!
I hear ya! I have been rooting since my old Droid Eris days, and thought I had a handle on it. But the Note 4 throws some strange curves into the mix!
