I have unlocked my bootloader and rooted my phone. Still running stock 2.2.1. Seems that about one month again I noticed that intermittently all of the previous notifications will return. I can clear them and they will stay gone for a while but will return later in the day. Also noticed that super user has begun to give me a "stopped unexpectedly" error. This seemed to start about the same time as the notification problem. Don't know if the 2 are connected. I've tried to do a search but did not find anything about the notification problem. This is forcing me to think about getting off my butt to install a custom ROM. Any suggestions before installing a custom ROM?

The newest update of super user is causing many issues, suggested not to update.
I have superuser versions 2.3.6.1 and 2.3.6.3. I will try a reinstall of 2.3.6.1.
If still have problems then will try 2.3.6.3. Will not allow an ugrade until I see a newer version than the one out now.
Thanks

I have been having issues with my Note3 ever since the kit kat update back in April. It worked flawlessly on Jelly Bean and I had no issues for over 3 months. I updated to kit kat via Kies with everything completely stock. Since then I get completely random reboots, it could happen when launching an app or even unlocking the screen, and it happens 2 or 3 times a day. So far I have tried 2 factory resets, clearing dalvik cache, and replacing the battery with an Anker replacement. I have tried turning off auto-updating of apps, and turning off wifi scanning. I have also tried running the phone with no apps installed. So far nothing has worked.
I have read several posts with people blaming the stock kernal for these reboots, but there is no definitive solution to this problem. I am looking for any and all help the community has to offer.
Some additional info:
Running latest stock rom- rooted via effortless method
Stock Recovery
Knox is still 0x0
No sd card in phone
Since you have no issues doing a factory reset, I recommend the following:
1.). Backup all the data you need
2.) Download the newest carrier available firmware for you from sammobile.com
3.) Flash via Odin
4.) Once finished and phone has rebooted, return to stock recovery and perform another data wipe
That will 100% fix your issues, sounds like maybe a corrupt system partition or libs

Thanks, I'll give this a try. Last night I uninstalled a bunch of bloat ware with titanium backup to make sure it's still not an app issue. If it reboots again I'll reflash the firmware. Since I'll. Be flashing stock it shouldn't trip knox right?
No, latest firmware complete stock will not trip Knox, as long as you're either doing a parallel upgrade NF9 > NF9 or NB4 > NF9. A downgrade will either fail or trip.
For anyone reading this, i tried to reflash the stock nf9 kernal to see if that was the issue, but i got a restart about 4 hours later. I am going to reflash the firmware via odin and report back.
I am having this issue for a long time. i have done everything, and finally i gave up, as i think it is a hardware issue. what make me confuse is the problem start since the day i upgrade to kit-kat. with every firmware come out i have a new problem. the latest "NF9" my phone just hang and black screen untill i press the power button for 30 second, then will restart. what make crazy is that it shuts off at night, and when i woke up i miss the alarm.
I'm sad to report that the reflash didn't work. I reflashed the NF9 firmware using odin about 4 days ago and it was fine for awhile, but I got 2 reboots today. I'm not sure what is causing this, but I am still open to suggestions. I don't think its hardware related since it didn't do this before kitkat. I still have my samsung warranty until february I believe, so if worst comes to worst then ill have to send it in, but i'm not sure what they will do about it.
The only thing I havent tried is replacing the sim card. Could a sim card cause a reboot issue like this?
i have already done it, even the SD card, still same problem.
Is there some kind of log feature in android that logs crash events or errors somewhere so i can maybe figure out what the problem is?
by the way i think i have solve my problem by updating busybox and supersu. i had to install busybox to system/xbin. and since that day i haven't encounter any restart or freez. almost 2 week. i hope that fix your problem as well.

I do not have busybox installed, and SuperSU is up to date. Also, the restarts happen with or without root ie without SuperSU. I still dont think its an app problem.
Just an update for anyone reading this. I have installed SetCPU to manage cpu clock speeds. I have had it installed for about a week and have not had an update with my custom profiles. It seems the restarts occur when cpu speed is at about ~675MHz. Not sure if its hardware or software yet. Any help is appreciated!
Update. I sent my phone in to samsung for repair. It looks like they just reflashed the firmware. After having it up and running again for 15 minutes the phone rebooted again. I contacted samsung and they recommended sending it in again. I'm not sure if it's worth it to send in again or if i should break my warranty and flash a custom rom. Any suggestions are welcome!
I get restarts because the modem crashes... its a known issue apparently

I cant believe its taken over a year for this issue to get fixed. Im almost positive its a software issue since it never happened on jelly bean. It's strange that not a lot of people have this problem though. A lot of people must have already flashed custom roms I may send it in again since I still have knox 0x0 and see if they do anything else besides reflash the firmware this time. If they only do a reflash again i will just flash a new rom and hopefully everything will be fixed
Final Update:
I sent my phone back to Samsung, apparently my issues were a hardware problem. This time they replaced the "PBA assembly" aka the mainboard. I have had the phone back for almost two weeks without a single restart. I believe my restart problems are over. I hope this information helps anyone with similar issues. I would recommend sending it to Samsung for warranty repair if you are still under warranty. :good:

I had the same problem but already tripped knox so iffy on sending it in. Funny thing is I did the external sd write fix and the phone has not rebooted since, going on 3 days.

I would get reboots even without an SD card put in the phone, so I don't think that would have helped me. I havent had a reboot since I've had the device back
So, I've had the premium for almost 3 weeks now. On the second day it crashed whilst I was listening to music +browsing in chrome. Thr screen turned inky and then turned off. Since then I haven't had anything similar happen, but I have had 1 or 2 reboots. Are these signs something could be wrong with my phone? I have like a week to get a replacement. It's rev 2, other than this I have no complaints.
Try to remove cach in recovery mode, maybe that will fix your problem. If not let me know
This has been happening to me as well and actually results in boot loops. Since I have Liveboot, I can see the dmesg output. It says "Failed to start system services. Invalid abi: ABI" or something like that. I'm RomAur so maybe that has something to do with it?
It has happened to me 3 times this week. Also RomAur 1.1. It seems to happen when i am heavy multitasking, definitely related to chrome I think.
I'm completely stock... I use chrome as my main browser. The last time it happened it froze on wake whilst it was charging... The first time I was listening to music and doing something else which I can't recall. The phone has 3gb of ram so I don't really clear my recent apps as often as I did on my S4. It happens once a week on average for me. Cache wipe didn't do anything.
You could've easily gotten a faulty device. A but load of hardware issues can do that and I would advice you to do a factory reset, update to the latest F/W (flash it if not available in ur region), see if it happens again and if it does - get a replacement
Gd luck
If you're totally stock this might not help but I narrowed my problem down to xposed being unstable as crap on mine at least. Hasn't happened since I went back to stock fw (using. 200 generic FR). But I tried to install xposed and I got the three light reboot immediately.

exactly like that on my z5 . when i flash the xposed uninstaller , it doesnt randomly reboot, but when i flash xposed , it does.i was thinking of flashing .200 ftf and then flashing xposed from the beggining (before i install any apps ) to see if it helps , but you said you did it??
As the title says, phone has randomly rebooted
... twice in the last few minutes, both times I had picture in picture going while sending a text...has anyone else experienced this? Also, the boot time is amazingly fast at least!

Did you do a wipe when you flashed or just update? If you just did an update, I would try to reinstall and let it wipe the device.
Yup. I'm experiencing this as well. Happened to me twice yesterday. Maybe try a factory reset?

Having the same issue did a complete factory install with the stock image.
Then rooted not sure if that is causing my issues but, is anyone else stock not rooted having random reboots?
I've had 3 reboots since jumping on Oreo. Did my update the clean way through a factory reset and flashing a factory image. Stock, unrooted.

Stock, updated via ota... Having 5 to 6 reboots per hour. Google is sending a replacement phone.
Maybe you have to do a factory reset.
Reason why i havent upgraded. Still on a rock solid nougat until google fix all this problems. Maybe 8.1 or so. Seem like reboot is a common problem with the pixel,. All thread about orea theres someone talking about his reboot problem in many different sites.

That sounds much like a hardware failure... :crying:
I had random reboots too coming from DP4 to FInal. No more random reboots since I flashed the factory images
Is 8.0 the version that is the start of the new OS updating system? I wonder if the partitioning is getting all screwed up? I think I'll stay on 7.1.2 for a bit longer till this gets ironed out.

Just don't download the OTA till they send out a patch. That's what I'm doing.

when i first updated to oreo and rooted it, i ran into the rebooting issues some of you are experiencing. i think the root of my issue was busybox. i did a clean install of oreo again the other day and rooted, but didnt put busybox on the phone. phone ran fine for a day, so i tried giving busybox another go. the reboot issues came back. hope this helps
Mine only reboots randomly if I have YouTube picture in picture enabled once I disabled it I haven't had any reboots maybe try to disable that
Just did the update a couple hours ago and so far so good. Picture in picture works too. Stock, GPE on VZW, no root or anything.

Guys, anyone still getting random on persistent reboots on Oreo with Pixel (XL)? I'm doing my second factory reset atm and monitoring these two threads on buganiser - 1, 2. Basically people started getting reboots after upgrading to Oreo and one notable common thing is: 'Sense Key : Hardware Error [current]' which Google reps assigned to the threads read as hardware issue (probably with Toshiba's memory chips being prone to overflow/overload (?)). They haven't answered my question why is it only happening on Oreo though. I REALLY don't want to go through the warranty process again only to get a device with the same problem as I still believe it can be fixed in 8.1. Is there anyone who had similar issues that got fixed with the 8.1 Beta? Cheers!
I'm experiencing the random reboots too.
Oct. 8.0, Magisk, Root
I almost missed an alarm due to this, so I think I may go back to Nougat. Not only does it reboot, but it gets stuck in the boot screen. If I hold Power and reboot, it comes up though.
So about a few years ago, I tried to root my galaxy note 4 (n910aucu2doi3), but I guess it rejected the root because it instantly bricked my phone, to the point where I had to completely wipe it using android recovery. The only way to get my operating system back was to download it online and install it through my PC (I had to find the exact version for my phone as well, 5.1.1 at the time, because it rejected every single other version).
Everything seemed to be working fine, except that I couldn't install software updates on my phone anymore. It was permanently stuck on 5.1.1. It was a bit of an annoyance but I didn't think much of it at the time.
Fast forward to now, and I'm getting several signs that my OS may be corrupted. My phone is constantly freezing, crashing and restarting. Maneuvering through applications causes the phone to freeze for a few seconds before either restarting or crashing the app. I want to say it's definitely a software issue, but I did install a new battery recently and it was working fine for a few weeks, could that be the issue?
If not, I want to start over, but I'm not sure how, and I don't know if it's safe to do a factory reset on this OS. Is there anyway I can get a fresh stock version of an android OS that can also update?
Any help is appreciated, I'm pretty much desperate.
I manually updated to 6.0.1 with the help of this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-att/general/updates-thread-t3663943
It seems to have fixed the issues so far, and my phone can automatically update again
