I've had my g3 for 2.3 years, and it suddenly went into boot loop one day after charging the phone. The boot loops for around 3 or 4 times then stopped and stayed shut down, got it to repair shop yet they claimed that it wasn't hardware issue but software. I doubt that as I've updated my g3 to android 6.0 last October and has been working fine since. However, just to note that I was charging with a broken cable last time before it went into this boot loop. What's the problem with the phone and how can I retrieve my stuff as i haven't backed up yet. Is this problem fixable as I am trying to avoid factory reset and data wiping at all costs.
I had the same problem , it happend suddenly 2 days ago and i am trying to solve this stupid problem but so far no solution.
I upgrade it to 6.0 then downgrade 5.0 tried different versions but no solution.
Wierd thing is just started from nowhere.
Kind of Cpu and heating related but not sure what can be the solution cuz when the phone is colder not restarting that much like warmer.

I haven't tried a new battery, yet I have two batteries, one was the original and other was bought at the same time I got my phone 2 .3 years ago, I have also tried to boot my phone plugged in, and even safe mode, but no success. Both methods only took it into the boot loop.

First thing i bought new battery but didnt help at all.
It is most probably cpu heat sink problem , that heat sink doesnt work anymore i guess . Now phone works like normal with low cpu freq. but a bit slower ..
One day i will try to change heat sink on cpu but dont know when

So do you have similar problem? and how did you get it to work at low cpu frequency, I don't mind it being a bit slower as long as I get back to my data on my phone.

I have same problem but mine at least opening .. when you can not start the phone , you can not change the freq of cpu.
I did mine with root and app called "no frill cpu"
For starting you can try to put your phone in to freezer 2 or 3 mins (not make super cold) and then start it when it is cold , i managed to use my phone like this around 10 min. so then u can change cpu freq
But today it turn off itself and so far couldnt turn on again ... looks like it gets worse in time..

No problem , tell me if it works.
I just try right now mine and all day it was restarting but i put it in freezer 2 min. and tried and it turn on ..
I am wondering all problems are same from cpu
Few mins. ago i opened up my lg g3 and apply heat sink on cpu chipset and so far it works really better than before
I even tried normal cpu freqs. and it didnt restarted , before using heatsink it was not even possible to see main menu on high freqs.
I was already thinking to buy new phone and spend so much money but then i give it a try and it works. I dont know how long it would help but so far so good.
So i would recommend anyone who has this bootloop problem to try heatsink gel on cpu if still problem continue then you can throw away the phone i guess
Hello, I've battery problem and it keeps restarting by itself, So I decided to buy new battery and with new battery still problem exist and it's random, after 2-3 min usage it restarts.
What should I do ? the phone was working very good a few days ago and that battery was fine until this stupid restarting happened and even I flashed the stock Rom but it didn't fix it.

Thanks for videos, I don't know how but I was able to use the phone for 3-4 hours and for test I used Antutu benchmark and I got 53.000 score, When I tried to charge the phone it turned off and I tried to turn it on again it stuck on Lg logo and I heard some noises sound and phone stuck on logo ( sometimes it has boot loop), For now I turned off the phone and tomorrow I'm gonna buy Thermal paste, Hopefully it will fix it.
Did you have the same kinda of problem ? Like phone stuck on Lg logo or it turn off after you try to turn it on .
How do I know if my G3 is dead? It doesn't do **** when I try to turn it on, it just vibrates and stays there. When I connect it to pc, it detects a connection but nothing happens. This happened earlier this morning and it doesn't want to boot back up no matter what I try.

My phone suddenly turned off and repeated to try to turn on itself but sometimes it was just bootlooping on lg logo sometimes just seeing lock screen and turning off . Noise stuff i dont know but mechanically there is nothing to make sound i think so dont know from what but i never had it.
You can try another working battery and software format. If these doesnt work then you can make thermal paste thing .. but if you think it is easy to do thermal thing then just start with that.
There is no point in software changes -- it's a hardware issue. I don't understand why no one checks the forum before asking -- there is a ton information written on here alone, and how to fix the issue.
You need to fix the loose connections and heat problems of the phone.
Thats right. All you have to do is applying a thermal on SoC. It did work for me

hey guys,i have been flashingmany roms every week for about 2 months, then I decided to start fresh.
wiped every thing via cwm and then flashed stock rom via odin,then rooted it.
problem is battery is as fast as HELL , and i have sudden drops, e.g. phone shuts down suddenly at 30% or even 50% , and when i connect charger it shows 0%.
tried battery calibration but no good.
I bought a new battery , and my phone still have sudden shutdowns when used for more than 30 minutes.
even offline.
Is my phone damaged ,or it has permanent leak ,even i change batteries?!
plz reply ASAP , and btw i dont have a screenshot cuz i am using stock 2.3.6.
I recommend you to go to a Samsung Costumer Service and ask for help. I think is a hardware issue, not a software issue.
Also, to use screenshot on GB, use Volume down + Home button.

Must be hardware. If the battery change doesn't quite cut it, then its a hardware problem.

Hello everyone,
My note II restates out of the blue without any good reasons :crying:
it generally happen when i play any game or use 2 or 3 apps at the same time ( like sound cloud , facebook and messenger )or ( game and messenger ) or playing for a long time ... knowing that the battery is fully charged or at least more then 80% ... it suddenly restarts with about 2 % .. and i take that battery out and in and open the phone to find it about 60%
i tried to factory reset
knowing that the phone on kitkat 4.4.2 the original french update from Samsung , and i tried also to run the secreat codes but neither of the code worked!!
can anyone please tell me what is the problem and how can i fix it please

how old is the battery?
did you overclock?
check if it's warm or even hot

the battery and the mobile are about 2 year ...
and no i didn't overclock the phone
and it gets a slightly warm in fact
battery life is approx. 1000 cycles, so in 2 years it is quite possible.
If you can swap battery and test. If you don't OC, then it's not a security restart.
I bet it's battery

Weird coincidence. This started happening to me on May 10th. My 2.5 yr old phone would restart over and over even when plugged into the computer. I did a hard reset and it still didn't help.
I replaced the battery and it fixed it!

Problem Solved
it was really the battery
once i changed it every thing went back to normal .
thanks everyone for your answers :good:
Its also another weird coincidence as this issue has happened to me, my note 2 is also 2.5 years old and my phone kept restarting too, but i really didnt care much and instead, i continued to use it over and over and overclocked it to 1800 mhz and i have no idea how but is stopped restarting. It was weird, at least is saved me money buy not having to buy a new battery. But as i expected, a new problem arises, systemui keeps crashing. But the battery is still fine, all i did was flashed a new rom.
Hi,
New to my LG G3 and just had a thermal runaway where the phone crashed and rebooted, and CPU-Z showed most of the sensors at 95Centigrade. After the phone sat for a bit, it's back to 50 C. I think this has been happening fairly often, maybe once a day, in this case it happened while charging wirelessly, and yesterday while talking on the phone.
Running Android 4.4.2 the 12B version. Rooted.
Is there something I can do to fix this? I really don't like having an unstable phone.
try clean flash rom using lg flashtool.if also not solved then try changing the battery.

I've been having similar issues. Just installed CPU-z but it's not doing it right now. My phone has overheated so bad a couple of times that the screen starts flashing on/off (screen backlight stays on...image flashes) and then after a few flashes, it reverts to stock background and keeps flashing. I have to pull battery to get it to quit. Once it's back on I still have the stock wallpaper and have to change it back. It's still there....dunno what's going on! Phone almost always seems hot in shirt pocket anymore.

well you do know that phone says high temp and will shutdown only when battery temp gets over 50 celcius so battery temp is also important here.many users who faced overheating prob got their prob fixed by changing the battery ao i thought u could have had the same prob so i suggest u that.try it.who knows it could work.or if u just bought ur phone then go replace it with another one.
Today I got myself an used LG G4, I am amazed by the looks of the phone but... The phone is really laggy, everything is slow, everything takes ages to save and load. When I take a photo, it takes good 3-4 seconds to save the photo even when the HDR is off. Camera is laggy sometimes, phone restarted when I try to take a photo with the manual focus, phone restarted when I tried to play subway surfer, played it for maybe 20 seconds and it restarted. Pretty much everything is slow as a turtle. Did a factory reset, it's running lolipop. I've tried updating over the OTA, said there were no updates. Tried to do it manually, stuck at 'connection to server failed' with the flashtool. I would smash it on the ground. It works worse than my Samsung S3 did few years ago. Facebook app takes ages to load, scrolling is really laggy. Messenger takes ages to load, everything slow. When I enter a chat, it takes like 6 seconds to load the text. Default browser laggy. Is there anybody who knows how to fix this or what should I do?
Just entered camera to play around bit with the manual mode, tried changing the focus... boom, restart
Tried Antutu benchmark test, went trough the first one and restarted... No idea what's going on

Looks like you have got yourself a previously bootlooped G4 that has had the big cores patch applied. Bad luck.

I got my LG G4 bootlooped too. Applied the core disabling fix. Core 0-4 are running as normal but Core 5 and Core 6 are stopped. The four running cores go up to 1.4GHz and the phone is still as fast as it was. I don't play much or multitask heavily but everything is as snappy as ever. Battery life is even better with the two big cores disabled. Are your four cores running too or is it just the core 0 that's stopped?

I've only been periodically using the phone after the core disabling fix for a few days now. It's been working okay so far.
So, i was on V3.15
I got update notification of V3.18 (3.7gb?)
I clicked.
My phone battery was behaving normal, calibrated and charge current speed 5200mAh.
I upgraded to V3.18 and booom, charge current shows always half of the value.
But it charges still 5200mAh but device thinks the input current is 2500-2600mAh.
My phone is EU variant. 16/256 Ghost Edition.
I downgraded to V3.15 (yes i lost data) and problem solved. I upgraded again to V3.18 and hello, problem is back!
This causes battery to be miscalibrated.
For over a week using this update and it still persists, it did not settle down.
So now when my battery hits 18% and i charge and it hits 56%, then its not 56% but in fact, its ~80%.
Charging while phone is fully shutdown is same too. It seems like the kernel is giving false info to device. So when phone system reads 2600mAh it moves percentage by that. So when this happens it thinks it charges alow and raises percentage slow accordingly too but in fact it still charges full speed.
Anyone else experiencing this issue? Using original cable and charge adapter.
Been sending video recordings/screenshots and 8min long of video of me talking/shutting down system/rebooting but the customer service denies to admit they messed up V3.18 charging parameters. They refuse.
So tell me. Who else is experiencing this issue?
It only happens on newest OS update (NX669S_EUCommon_V3.18).
So please, if you experience same issue, write it down here and contact customer service and give them link to this thread.
Raise awareness. I fresh installed V3.18 and it still happens! Wiped data, still happens!
Not normal!
Been using this update over a week with no luck.
Greetings, I am in the exact same situation like you with the latest EU update. Just created my account to post here, since I was browsing around the web searching for eventual fix for this issue. Sadly, I am unable to downgrade to the previous version and this is driving me crazy.
Can you suggest me a way to downgrade? (there is no factory reset option, nor wiping partition in boot mode works)

You cant downgrade, if you do you will lose all data on phone with downgraded version.
The customer support i exchanged 15emails or so and they simply dont admit its their mistake. They just fool with me.
My belief is they intentionally try to ruin our battery to go for the new redmagic 7 device.
They even "overcharge" our phone. My phone alerted me at 74% (overvoltage battery charge stops). Voltage on battery raised up to 4.5voltage because battery charges still fast at 95-99% even tho phone thinks its at 74%.
But no, this Nubia company denies to admit their mistake with my proofs and tests.
Their technical team doesnt even check.
I mean they just need to put this update in their device and then charge from ~20% to 100% and they will see it.
We need more people gathering here up and to make our voice be heard. Come on guys everyone please stand up!

3.15 is the previous one we had before this bug arised.
I flashed 3.15 lost all data, then upgraded problem came back at 3.18.
But on 3.15 there isnt any.
Posted to their support with a link to the thread as well, we will search our rights if this is intentional with the release of RM7...
I also noticed, the cpu 4 main cores get stuck at 100% sometimes (for 20min or 1-2hours) causing huge heat build-up and extra high battery usage.
Sometimes it fixes itself and then quickly comes again stuck at 100%.
Only way to fix it is by rebooting phone.
Really sucks. When this happens, and you charge phone and play with charge separation, the phone goes very high temperature.
This is gaming phone? With problems?
Their kernel is bad. Their developers just DONT put effort. they cant release a simple normal clean kernel... I swear, if they dont fix these issues i will for sure go back to OnePlus as my next device, i had no such issue....

Fun thing is when i plug charger it suddenly shows my battery is fallin from 39c to 35c.

It wasnt like this before.
Now it just loves to stay there.

We have to wait.
Im regularly checking manually update through the app.
I noticed something.
Sometimes i see CPU is very aggresively piking to 100% the first 0-3 cores (4 cores).
Its the small cores maxing to 100% frequency very often.
But at other times it doesnt and i noticed. When it doesnt spike to 100% alot, the phone is battery friendly and doesnt heat alot even during charge, but at random moment this gets triggered and cpu becomes super aggresive for NO REASON!
This is SUPER frustrating!
Very poorly optimized phone, i will definitely not buy a RedMagic phone ever again.
My next device simply OnePlus back.
Im VERY disappointed in RedMagic... Gaming phone? Really?
Nice joke.

The video fixes the stuck cpu parameters 80% of time.
It seems like an issue lying down in the phone OS.
RedMagic Gaming phone? Hah! CONSUMER NEEDS TO POINT THESE BASIC ISSUES? What is this
Even a 200$ phone doesnt have such issues.
The video is proof of the issue being unnecesarily running 4 cores at full peak and load.
Causing unnecesary heat buildup and battery drain.
