Hey Guys,
So i've done some research all evening here and I've done nothing different than i'd do any other day with the phone and all of a sudden today around 6 PM eastern the phone started acting up. I came home from work plugged it in and it started to lag and then froze, finally unfroze and got that error " Unfortunately, %1$S %2$S has stopped running. I only have the option to click (ok) So I would do that and I thought all was well, turns out this is not the case. When this error pops up it also disables the phone from charging. I unplug and plug back in, the phone starts to freeze and the error comes back. I've been doing some online re-search some people say it's a synch issue with google and to turn synch of, did so, still same error. Some people have said unplug charger, power off phone wait 10 seconds, plug charger back on and boot up, this also did not resolve my issue. I will say that if the power cable is not in the device, it works fine. After about 2 hours of trying different things, I plugged it back into the charger and the phone started acting out really strange, changing from screen to screen and indicating " The dock is connected" I don't own a dock and the phone has never been into dock. I'm using the stock charger that came with the Note 2.
I will say I have TWRP installed and I've been using the JEDI X Rom for this phone without any problems. I thought, okay well none of this is working maybe it's the rom acting up, so I decided to go into recovery wipe all cache & system and re-installed the rom, same thing. The dock is connected, phone freezing and Unfortunately, %1$S %2$S has stopped running. So, I re-did everything again, wiped all cache systems, fixed permission and put the stock rom back on the phone. Now the phone is indicating in stock mode that the "dock is connected" when really it's just the charger. The phone is going into the time out then pops back on automatically all by it's self. Not getting the Unfortunately, %1$S %2$S has stopped running anymore though. the phone is 3 weeks old, and i'm at a loss here as to what I should do next.
Any suggestions, if not, Is there away to erase the phone "call" time so I can get it down to below 30 minutes so I can return this one for a new one?
Thanks,
Well, after hours of reading, I came across this post for an Android EVO phone and it mentioned something about a connect point of the charging port in the phone and said slightly bend the charger cable when it's attached inside, I tried this at a last cause and everything fixed itself, I re-flashed Jedi X and all errors have cleared itself. I find it strange because I'm very gentle with inserting/disconnecting these cables...
Thanks,
I'm not surprised. I've had similar issues with a S2 and other Sammy phones. In fact my brothers Galaxy S as well. He had to get the whole board replaced. I hate MicroUsb. Although its nice to have a generic sync port that is the same across almost all Android devices, this port needs to change.
Just my $0.02. Glad to see you figured it out. Knock on wood my Note2 hasent had these issues yet.

Hi guys,
This morning I powered on my tab, then, after reading some news, I closed the cover lid and when I came back after some minutes my tab won't turn on or charging. Battery is full (charged over night).
I tried power + vol + home: nothing.
My tab: 8.4 lte rooted with Odin, Samsung v2 Rom
What a strange coincidence! Mine too!
My Tab S 8.4 LTE turned off after a complete descharge. I've attached it to charger, without turning it on, and charge beguns.
After a couple of hours I've checked the tab but I've found it completely turned off, no charging animation on power button. I've tried to turn it on but without success.
I've a SuperSamsung V2 ROM also.
What's the f..k????

Thanks God, I've resolved with this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/help/to-event-soft-brick-disaster-t2838473
1) connect the tab to PC;
2) press Home, Vol Down and Power simultaneously up to a screen appears;
3) press Vol Down to cancel and reboot the tablet.
Now the tablet has rebooted and it works fine!
When I'll be at home I'll try...hope it will work for me also...have you some random reboots while in standby in the past days?
No chance for me...
My Tab S 10.5 Wifi running on stock rom is at reparation center because of the same problem...
Well...After two days...I think the problem is something wrong in battery. My tab was fully charged when this issue happens for the first time. After leaving it alone on the desktop for a day, this morning I connected the tab to my PC for around 30 minutes and the charging battery appears on the screen. I charged for 20 minutes and after I let the tablet discharging. This evening battery was 8% and my tab went to black unresponsive screen. Now I'll try charging to full and after clearing battery stats to see if something change. ..
@kraoc please let me know reparation center diagnosis
Mine has repeated this behaviour several times in the last few days, I've always solved with the procedure in the post #2, but now it keeps irritating. @kraok please let us know diagnosis. @davidebeatrice I don't think so since it has just happened to me while using the tablet with 70% battery.
I was 99% when it happens for the first time...now my tab seems T9 work fine. Let's see when battery will be down down down...?
After two charging-discharging process and finger crossing, I can say that clearing battery stats worked for me.
Hello, I've a similar problem. My rooted Tab S with TWRP doesn't boot anymore, it's stuck at the Samsung logo. However I can get into download mode or shut it down and the loading animation shows. Probably caused by some root stuff I installed because it worked fine before. Any way to fix it via Odin or some other ideas?
Thanks!

If you have access to download... just flash stock rom...
I've had a similar problem:
Screen shows a discharged battery and I can't do anything to it.
No button combination works, plugged or unplugged.
After a while (days) it shut off. I couldn't turn it back on until plugging it, and then the same battery discharged display shows up.
I took it to a service center and they blamed the motherboard, but I had a custom ROM (a version a Cyanogen found here). No fun.
EDIT: FIXED!
I retrieved the tablet before they serviced it, and attempted to repair it myself again with the button combination.
I used the home + vol down + power combo, and then I pugged it in. It went to download mode, then I pressed vol down to restart the tablet.
Method similar to this (but without the need to restore my backup or flash anything):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/help/to-event-soft-brick-disaster-t2838473
Hope this helps someone else stuck in the same situation.
I had teh same thing happen to my 10" Tab S as well. Took it back to Spring and they immediately replaced it since I had only had it for 7 days tat that point.
Glad you had a new one... And I'm a bit jalous about your issue
Had it for 2 month... Got 2 reply from Samsung: "rooted and can't use warranty" !
But: Flashing your device does not void your statutory warranty - FSFE Legal - http://j.mp/ZIPbWC !!!
Samsung keep to refuse to apply warranty !!!
Hello everybody,
I've sad news from my side...
I've had this problem a few times and I've everytime resolved with the home+vol down+power combo and restarting.
After that I've found evidence on another thread here in XDA that it should be related with battery stats.
After resetting the stats, the problem stopped, up to yesterday night.
I was watching a video on YouTube where the battery goes 0% and the tablet shutdown itself.
So I've attached it to charger and the charge begun (tablet was off, battery charging appears on screen).
This morning I've detached it from charger without checking if it was 100% charged but when I've tried to power it up, I don't get any reaction from the tablet.
The key combo doesn't function anymore. Attach to PC via USB doesn't make it to get recognized. No way out.
Completely dead.
Have you some suggestion/trick I can try before I'll launch it through the window???
Thanks
Antonio

Blap017, thanks for your tip!!!
But how can I reach the battery? Has anyone instructions for that?
However I don't think that this is my case. As I've said before, yesterday I've attached the tablet to the charger and it begun to charge.
But I can try your tip, if only I'll found a way to open the tablet.
Thanks!!!
Google how to fix the screen or something of the like..... ifixit usually has a tutorial and the first couple steps will.be removing the batter

Thanks again for your response, blap017
I have good news, however.
Today I've reattached the tablet to the charger and it gets charging.
I've leaved it up to full charge, then I've turned it on and it now it functions well. Thanks God.
But I don't understand why this has happened. Perhaps the SuperSamsung v2 rom messed up battery stats...
Thxs everybody for the support, xda forums are ever a fantastic source of inspiration!!!

So I have this weird issue with my HTC ONE M7 for a few days now. It would turn off by its own when I was using it but I'd just turn it on and it will work again. I thought it may have something to do with a bad app or the rom might be acting up. Anyway I ignored it since turning it on was a minor inconvenience and I needed my phone functional. Today whilst using GPS, the phone suddenly went dead on me. Every time I boot it up, it passes the initial HTC screen but then doesn't boot into android. The screen goes black and the phone turns off by itself. I went it recovery, wiped dalvik and cache thinking it was an app causing a boot issue but that didn't help. The problem continued. I already had a backup so I went ahead and tried restoring it. It worked the first time. But the phone still won't boot. It would turn off automatically. Then I tried reflashing it with the backup. This time the phone would just turn off as soon as the restore process started. I finally got tired of it and decided to reflash with a new rom. The flash went fine. But lo and behold the same issue again. Boot animation and then black screen with the phone completely turned off.
I thought it might be the battery so I plugged it in to my laptop USB. It booted but when i was setting up android, it would just shut down again. Then I connected it to the wall socket thinking the phone will get more juice. This time around I was able to set it up. With the phone connected to the wall socket all was working splendidly. Please note that during all this time the phone was at 100% and there were no drastic falls in the battery levels.
As soon as I disconnect the phone from power, any power intensive operation shuts it down. I have been in recovery mode for 2 hours now and the battery hasn't even dropped by 3%.
So the question is, What the hell is going on? Is it the battery, is it phone's hardware or is it a software issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cuz if it's something that can't be fixed, I have to start thinking about getting a new phone then. THANKS so much for bearing with me! Cheers!!

if you are s-off i would suggest doing an RUU and starting fresh. Its hard to pin point a problem without having the device handy and trying some things. The RUU will let us know if its a software problem or if its going to be hardware related.
Hey thank you so much for replying. I am s-off. But would going back to stock re S-On my phone? And how do I do RUU? Thanks again.

Do not s-on! Just run the ruu eye dottat made
Installed RUU. The problem is still there. The phone can stay on for hours in recovery without a charger but as soon i want too boot into android it shuts down. It only boots up if it's connected to a charger and that too a wall socket not a usb hub cuz it goes some way into the boot process and shuts down half way. I am pulling my hair out here. Dunno if it's the battery or the mother board.

If ruu still has issues. It is motherboard or battery. From the symptoms, it sounds like battery as the phone needs to have some juice to fully boot the phone before being able to run off the charger.
Hello,
Today, while I was using my phone, it restarted itself and has been stuck at a boot loop almost entirely since then. It has successfully booted up 2-3 times but will usually restart itself within 30-45 seconds of booting and then will be stuck in a boot loop again. When it has started up its usually after it has been bootlooping for a while. I have an H811 , I'm rooted and using xTreme Rom v2.0. I have had occasional random reboots here and there before but the phone always booted right up again without any issues. I haven't done anything with root/recovery since early September.
I've tried doing a factory hard reset without any luck. My phone booted up after I tried the hard reset and it was like the reset didn't happen. I can't boot into TWRP. I can boot into download mode and I tried to reset using kdz. It got to 100% but the the phone restarts and is back in the boot loop (then the lg flash tool gets an error and force quits). I've tried removing my sd and sim cards, I've tried swapping to a different battery, I've tried leaving the battyer out and letting the phone cool down. Nothing is working. I have noticed that when the phone is going to boot up correctly the full LG animation plays. When the phone is going to boot loop I only get a static LG Powered by android image.
Since I tried and failed to reset to stock using kdz, the phone no longer boots up past the LG screen. I've redownloaded the kdz file and tried to reset again with the same results. When I have it in download mode Windows recognizes the phone but it says there's an issue with the MTP driver. I've reinstalled the drivers and I still get that the MTP function isn't working correctly.
Any suggestions?

I am having the same issue. I have T-Mobile G4 that is NOT rooted. I bought it on release day. I too would get random reboots, particularly after the recent security update. I also noticed that the operating temperature was really high, a lot lately. I thought it was a rogue app (clean master). Anyway, I updated a few apps and installed a few watch faces. Suddenly, my phone was drained prematurely. Plugged it into a quick charge charger when all the fun begins. Early on it would boot to the home screen but would reboot a minute or two later. Then it stopped booting to home. On two occasions that I caught, it was starting up like a firmware update just installed with the "Android is starting 1 of 143 apps" type of line. After seeing that and still not getting to home, I figured I might as well factory reset it. Well I was amazed to discover that a factory reset yields the same boot loop. All I get is the LG logo.
Defeated. I go to my local TMo retailer where I bought the phone only to find out that I have to wait for delivery of a replacement. I'm in Jump btw. I did notice that when the phone will boot to home screen for whatever length of time, the LED would work. The LED does not work during a boot loop. My research on this issue uncovered an alarming trend on the Internet. No solution other than replacement. No cause has been identified either. Without proof, these are my top suspicions: Quick charge, 128G SD, apps moved to SD. My hunch is quick charge. All of my chargers are Qualcomm certified quick chargers. and I use them 95% of the time. I would hate to add LG to my list of boycotted Android vendors under Samsung.

Sounds like the boot loop issue is a decent sized one- quite a few others, from different variants, having all having a similar issue. For me I was walking with my phone checking facebook when it restarted and got stuck. I definitely notice the LED issue too. I'm not on jump but will likely go into T-Mobile today and see what they tell me.

Exactly what happened to me. now after CSE flash of KDZ, it won't start at all. just boot looping. also after hard reset.
Hi guys-
So, about a year ago (maybe after the Marshmallow update), my Note 4 started bogging down, freezing, restarting randomly, etc. At some point I couldn't even get it to power on in spite of battery pulls, manual drain holding the power button, etc. This after many cache clearings, resets, etc. It seemed dead.
Sickened, I went back to a dumb phone last year. A couple weeks ago I got the Note 4 out of storage, and much to my surprise, when I plugged it in, it started to charge. It powered on. It seemed revived and good as new! But after a few days, the freezing started again, and also once again, it sometimes would not power on unless I left the battery out for hours. I installed Wakelock, which seems to have resolved most of the freezing, lagging, and resetting issues, but if the phone ever does reset or power down, I may be unable to power it on for days.
Is there anything I'm missing? Ocassionally it will reboot or start up with a memory error and the android symbol (do not turn off target!). Does this mean that part of my memory has failed and it's all up to chance whether the phone will work or not? It seems so strange that it works perfectly most of the time now that I have Wakelock installed. I would try rooting if I could, but it seems like that's still not a permanent option with this Att version. I'd also trade it in for 85 bucks a the att store, but if they try rebooting it, I'm 98% certain it won't power back on. Uhg.
Any advice is appreciated!
i've had similar issues that were solved by using a new battery. its not definitely the problem but it worth a shot.
Thanks! I rotate through 3 batteries, so I figured it wouldn't be that, but I'll give it a shot.

I am facing the same. One of the senior member @norbarb suggested to clean the firmware through ODIN and updaing phone through sd card manually. I am yet to figure out how to perform this solution. but below is the link of his great work. See if that benefits you. Do thank him and others who contributed to this work.
