You will still get OTA updates. Don't worry. It won't affect it at all.

You haven't altered the stock image file so should be ok... If you rooted it and updated SuperSU then you might have a problem.
Essentially you re-installed the firmware you had back on the phone 5 or 6 times...

[Q] problems after installing official android 4.3 firmware on Galaxy note 2

Hi all,
First of all i would like to inform you that this is my first ever post on this forum... or any other forum for that matter. I have an issue on my mobiel device.
This morning I installed original firmware update on my samsung galaxy note 2.
The menu and back buttons have stopped working ever since I installed the official android 4.3 firmware update.
Other than this issue I have not yet encountered any other problems.
Can any one help or give suggestion on how I can fix this issue? And thus make the device's buttons work again?
Thanks alot

Also i have same problem. After 4.3 update via OTA my phones buttns are not working. I tried factory reset from setting and from recovery menu but it didn' t make sense. After that i tried to reinstall update from kies also it is not sense. Could you help us please. My phone has United Arab Emirates rom
I think i'm going to send the phone to service for repairs.
By the way i might try to flash 4.3 via ODIN, do you think it may cause any problems or trigger knox counter.
Can you please advise?

I was going to say do a factory reset but that was mentioned above. before I take my phone ever to Samsung service center call Samsung tech support in your country. when I first got into rooting my phone and modifying it I got into a few small problems such as yourself and I posted on forums but did not have the patience to wait so I ring Samsung and speak to tech support and always got the problem fixed. give it a go, you got nothing to loose

Yes you are correct but in my country warranty system is different. My phone has other companies warranty. So when i call them they said sent yiur phone to our service. But i think they are not very experience for this issue and they can say this is customer mistake your phones buttons get a damage. Therefore i m sure this is software problem and i m waiting an answer from here. If nobody can find a solution for my problem as a last solution i should sen my phone to service

Try this app, it will not fix the problem but will enable you to use the phone without problems. You may even do so with minimal loss of display space by making buttons overlay the actual display and making them semi transparent.

Anyone have the AT&T Updater APK?

I removed The AT&T Updater service months ago and now, well - I need it back but I didn't back it up .. Does anyone happen to have the APK handy????
Thanks!
** EDIT ** Turns out that's not my issue, or maybe not - I cant get the OTA update to 4.3 - and the updater service isn't running - So I assumed that was my issue .... Anyone have an idea what to do? If I click the software update it does nothing, just sits there...

For now I wouldn't worry about the 4.3 update as it is super buggy and battery draining. AT&T has yet to issue the 4.3 update to consumers after pulling it due to an outcry from customers about how bad it was. Until they issue the update again (who knows when that'll be knowing AT&T) then just stick to 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 if you're using Touchwiz. Just my advice.

Oh that's odd, I thought they pulled the update entirely.
As far as why yours just sits there I've had the same problem in the past. I've been told it usually has something to do with your Google account being synced to the device (Sounds completely contradictory to what it SHOULD be, I know) but that's the only thing I've heard regarding this particular issue.
This was the process I was told to perform to fix this:
1. Factory reset (I know, bummer)
2. During the setup process, do NOT enter your Google account information - skip this step instead.
3. When the phone finishes the setup process, go to Settings >> Software Update and see if your phone picks up the update.
This worked for me several times so try that and if it doesn't work then I'm sure another member can lead you in the right direction.

Screen issue after .90 update

Hello,
i have the same issue as described in the thread below and shown in this video ==> https://vid.me/NGc5
== > http://www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=41205&extra=page=1&page=1
i have been suffering from same issue since the .90 update, i tried flashing the 1.1GB file using adb which didn't solve the issue along with the yesterday update
anyone having the same problem?
i want to flash the older .63 version, but using adb it says that it can't flash older version than the current version , anyone can help with that ?
@Asus_USA
any info please
I downgraded the rom to a version from July, yet the same issue persist
Seems like a member mentioned somewhere else that the. 90 update might have broken some hardware using code that is not reversible
Waiting for any feedback from Asus

I am also having this SAME issue ! I have unlocked my bootloader, root access, and flashed the 2.40.97 update again, I tried downgrading, it won't let me install and lower update over an higher one. and I can't get twrp recrovery to stay after the flash, it always goes back to the stock recovery. Also I know whats causing the problem. it's the Auss / powered by intel animated screen , First you have the Asus splash screen, Then the Animated Asus / Intel animation Then the boot animation screen. after unocking my bootloader, and changing the boot animation. I can tell you for sure, the Asus / Intel animation that is causing the issue !. I don't know where this animation is stored on the phone, if anyone knows. maybe we can restore of get rid of it. Anyway my phone is pretty much useless right now, can't use the keypad on the call screen, and can't even see the bottom half of the phone, IT's NOT a hardware problem. like some people have said. it's that dam Asus / Intel animation at starup.
I tried downgrading (using fastboot and abd) to every available firmware and nothing solved this problem
IMHO I think that the 90 upgrade triggered a bug while flashing boot partition

UPDATE.. I was able to install cm-12.1-20151011-UNOFFICIAL-Z00A.zip 2015-10-11 01:29 Using Windroid UIniversal Android toolkit. and it worked. and TWRP also the recovery.
Unlocked bootloader, rooted phone, installwd TWRP. Flashed boot, droidboot, with WW. 2.12.40.09 Z00A Then installed cm-12.1-20151011-UNOFFICIAL-Z00A.zip 2015-10-11 01:29 . The screen problem IS still there ! \ Anyone else have any ideas ? ~ Travis
My phone (ZE551ML) developed the same issue. When flashing back to stock didn't work, I sent it in for an warranty RMA. A part was replaced and the phone sent immediately back. Not a word to me about the unlocked bootloader. Just make sure if you send it in, that you state you did flash attempt flashing to stock, and make sure the phone is as close to stock as you can get. Factory reset the phone and go.
I tried last week 3 times I got an RMA & then an advanced RMA and i'm getting the run around from them. they even had the hold of 344.00 on my checkings account to the advanced RMA and then THEY canceled the RMA and everytime I talked to them 3 different customer support people then said " sorry we're updating our systems call back tomorrow. " I got told that 3 times and I've called 4 times. the phone is pretty much useless at the moment.
If they send the phone back to you, the part that was replaced on mine is "90AZ00A1-M02610". Dunno if you can get that part yourself and have it repaired by a third party, but other than that I wouldn't know what to do in your situation.

...This is the Hardware model# of the whole device, not just a part inside , buy a new phone and you have this yourself !
At least for those in Canada, here a short review for my "advanced replacement" experience:
I used the Chat on their website to get a RMA#, then got a confirmation email with a sort of howto. They mentioned to use Fedex or UPS to send the defective device in and noted not to long to wait to do this otherwise the hold on my creditcard... you know! So i sent the package 3 days later with UPS, cost me a bit over CA$60 with insurance and tracking.
Just the other day i got email from Purolator (a Canada only parcel service) to print a return sticker. No one from ASUS mentioned this to me - $60 wasted
The replacement phone came also with Purolator, ASUS emailed me a tracking# but NOT wich carrier they used. Cost me a few hours and a couple phone calls to find out and re-route the package to my workplace.
ASUS did not use a original case, just a folded carton as they stated the replacement would be a new device. In case i decide to sell the phone i don't have original carton
Start to install all my usual App's etc. found that the phone does not receive any GPS signals, so it seems i changed a not usable screen into a not working GPS
For me, this was my last ASUS for a very long time!
Finally got my Advanced RMA going. can't wait to get a working phone, as soon as I do. Going root & unlock bootloader and install CM 12.1 I'm DONE with ASUS's bloatware ! ~ T
I am having the same problem. I have gotten my screen to work, but it still glitches. Is the only solution to send it in?

I think so, I tried to fix it, flash with 2.20.40.97 Four times now, the problem is still there, rooted, unlocked bootloader, and installed CM 12.1 thinking it would get rid of the problem, it didn't. I think the problem is in the boot partition now. I also flashed the splash screen, and the boot animation. the problem is still there, EVEN after returning this phone back to stock to RMA it. the problem is still there.

I contacted Asus and I have to send my phone in. If you haven't dropped your phone, Asus will overnight you a new one for $25. I dropped my phone so they will repair it free of charge if the damage from the drop isn't what caused the issue. Otherwise I'm going to have to pay.

OP3 random restart

sometimes my oneplus 3 restart without reason, i have installed the oxygenOS 3.2.7 do someone else have this issue , its just me or? ill post a battery log also.
its really annoying and dunno what do =/
My congrats for the great autonomy ?
The info you've sent are not enough to analyze your reboot issues.
1) Have you rooted your device?
2) If yes, are you running SuperSU, Kingroot, Phh's Superuser? What version?
3) What the apps that are getting root permissions?
4) Are you using Xposed? What version (e.g. v86.6 systemless with Magisk v8, the v86 stock)?
5) Have you tweaked or replaced the stock kernel?

I'm having an heavily modded OP3 with OOS v3.2.7, never encountered instability.
You should try factory reset asap, there's nothing you may do, since device is completely stock and works for most users.

Not, because OOS is working well for most users, so there is no "fix reboot issues" in any todo list.
Go with factory reset, when you find the needed time.
If problems still persist, contact OnePlus and explain the issue.
I think that some upgrade maybe the cause of your troubles, due to massive change of stuff that the end-users can never see.
You know that Samsung updates often make device slower or keep crashing some system app?
Why excluding that OnePlus have done (involuntary) the same?
Updates are not always guarantee of stability, especially with firmware different than Google stock.

Are you using a case? I had a cheap eBay clear case on my phone and it wasn't moulded properly over the power button, there was no indent on the inside for the button to sit in so it used to turn off in my pocket and back on later and produced battery graphs similar to yours.
Hope this is a help.

Did your problem solved? I am having same problem.
I have the same problem. I am currently on 3.2.8 and also had this problem on beta 9. Few days ago it happened in front of me, the phone was on the desk nothing running in the background. That was kind of the soft reboot, didn't triggered my locked sim, (my sim card is locked needs to enter PIN when phone startup) and after that I checked Settings=>About Phone=>Status, the uptime didn't affected too, seemed nothing was happened. I think this also happened to some other people but they just didn't realize it.

Try using non 4G/LTE SIMS.
I am facing the same problem.
My device is at service center.
Day one:No reboots.I asked them to put some SIM & then check.
I did that after reading your post. No luck. Are they replacing it? How many days since it is in service center?
Facing problem from last 2 weeks.
I submitted once last week.They clean flashed older rom.Worked fine for one day,then reboots started again.
Then this technician had remote session and flashed the rom OnePlus3_16_A.17_161118(OOS 3.2.8):Reboot frequency went too high.
Had to go to Service center for diagnose. 2 days now.No proper response from them.
I had the same issue from several days now, wiped cache, did factory reset, wiped data, nothing worked, I read somewhere that let battery drain down to 0 and then full charge removes electricity or static from the phone, and that may cause random reboots, gonna try that

Seriously? That sounds like one of those hilarious Microsoft Answers sort of posts! Running the battery down will not get rid of "electricity or static from the phone", apart from anything else the battery protection circuit would not allow the battery to drop to zero volts as it's not good for li-on batteries.
The Oneplus 3 seems to like to soft restart, mine sometimes decides to do it 3-4 times a night (rarely during the day) and then is fine for awhile. Tell tale sign is the battery graph showing large gaps in the usage pattern. I would suggest that there is an inherent firmware issue judging by the number of people reporting the same issue on a number of different forums.

Fixed Beta 2 security screen problem.

Hi, A lot of people are having issue regarding security of device as you cant change your pin and it wont let you enter your pin by showing wrong pin. You cant even have any security after doing a factory reset.
I have done everything to fix it , even took it to samsung repair center, still no success so I have sent it to samsung warranty today.
I have done these things to fix it but nothing worked.
1. Tried online samsung and google "find my phone" service" to fix it as it is shown on some sites for older phones.
2. Reset the phone through recovery.
3. Install fresh firmware through Odin. Then installed both beta versions.
4. Installed orignial firmware mine was VAU.
5. Installed the first firmware of s10 plus. With Nand reset and partition using PIT file.
6. Took it to samsung, they tried 2 different firmwares to fix it but all in vain.
In the end Samsung told me that it might be issue after security patch done for screen protector. They cant do anything at the moment and I have to wait for a fix through update but I have sent my phone to warranty.
I posted this issue in Q&A last day after having issue. But now I can see There are a lot of people affected by this. In my opinion it is Beta 2 issue.
Once you encounter this issue, you are helpless until samsung fixes it. Until then just keep your data, no need to do factory reset or new firmware, as it wont do any help.

I also got this first time. It is very frustrating and I spend 7 hours to fix it but nothing worked. Until now i have seen 5-6 people who are facing this issue after beta 2. More might come.
I'm also facing this problem, hope Samsung fix this ASAP.
Those who have this problem, did you sideload manually the updates or have you enrolled and been part of the official Beta program?

I sideloaded it.
To be on the safe side, I have enabled remote unlock and also just tried it to see that everything works. This deletes all your biometrics but at least you can use your phone till a fix is issued.
Thanks for letting us know. Worst case scenario, you can roll back to Pie via Odin, correct?
Fyi: After remotely unlocking the phone, I was able to successfully setup again pin, face and fingerprint biometrics. I cannot understand why this problem affects some people and others are not affected. Why is this triggered by certain phones...?

I did rolled it back but didnt work for me. my issue is persistent and even samsung service centre could not fix it. I gave my phone in warranty because I am not sure how much samsung will take to fix this issue and they might be able to fix it. Lets see what samsung will say.
am not having any of these issues on S10+ Beta 2
I have the same issue. My phone restarts twice a week automatically and after my scheduled restart my pin is no longer working.
I've formatted my phone and now stuck on Beta software as Smart Switch won't downgrade anymore.
I installed via official Beta Enrolment (Samsung Members App) - in the UK.
Was and currently still running the Beta 2 software.

You can use odin to go back to normal build but there is high probability that it wont fix the issue.
Does this have anything to do with the recent update in the biometrics (fingerprint issue).?
I cannot understand why this bug was not seen right after the update to Beta2, but only after 3-4 days...

The good thing is that this bug affects also the ones who officially enrolled to the Beta program, so this means that Samsung must be working to release a fix. At least I hope...

Is it fixed? Can you change pin code?
I flashed it and I have absolutely non of the issues you're having. I have an unlocked S10+ on Verizon and I'm running the ZSJF build
