After side loading the March update and unfortunately losing everything on my internal storage, my own fault, I got the phone back up and working normal. Everything was working normal. Rooted and recovery installed. Went to bed and woke up to the phone boot looping. Restarted it and noticed it was factory reset. My messages, recent calls, chrome tabs etc... All reset.
I'm assuming that the only way to sync your data is on the setup screen when you first set a phone up. Is the another way? Why did the phone do this? Everything was fine. Never had this happen before.

It will initiate a factory reset if the device/slot is corrupt

so my phone keeps freezing 2 minutes after it boots up. It started while I was trying to delete some texts off handcent, the whole phone just froze. I had to pull the battery and then when i booted the phone back up, it was acting super laggy and froze a minute or two after boot up. So I have to pull the battery again and it just keeps doing this. Havent installed any new apps or anything. I stopped a few programs from starting up with autostarts but they werent critical programs. anyone have any ideas?
Need some more info.
ROM, kernel, radio, what's your setup?
all stock, rooted with s-off.
I ended up doing a factory reset because I used to use launcherpro and after one of the numerous resets the phone went back to sense home and everything was gone.
Im still curious as to what i could have been...
Had something really weird happen to my S3 guys.
Running teamwin and the Liquid-Smooth ROM. Been that way for 5 months since I bought it with no problems until now.
Plugged the phone up to the charger last night before bed. Woke up and wondered why the charging light was still yellow so I kicked the screen on and it was charging at an extremely slow rate (Around 40mA). Unplugged the charger and the phone made a tone I had never heard before. Noticed two small "glitches" or "artifacts" in the display rendering around the clock area on the home screen. Attempted browsing around the phone. App drawer opened and closed fine but EVERY process or app I would try to launch would crash so I rebooted, and that brings me to where I am now.
The ROM will NOT boot. The phone just sits there at the Galaxy SIII splashscreen. I can boot to Odin/recovery just fine and the internal SD filesystem appears intact and browse-able. Tried totally nuking the data section. Wiped Dalvik/Cache, did factory reset and then wiped the ROM. Tried re-installing the ROM and even re-flashing the radio and it still doesn't boot past the splashscreen.
While I was in recovery it also told me, "Your phone doesn't appear to be rooted. Would you like to install SU?", which is strange because the phone WAS rooted.
Thinking this thing mysteriously turned itself into a paperweight. Any ideas?
Please install a different Non-Liquid Rom. But for best results, First ODIN back to stock and then go from there. Use Root 66 Stock image.
agree with odin flashing root66 firmware. factory reset FIRST though. you will likely be forced to if you dont, and once stock recovery is flashed back on it will wipe internal sd.
if you still have issues after that i would suspect a hardware failure.

Just FYI guys I got it back about an hour after posting this.
Even after wiping both caches, performing a factory reset, fixing permissions and finally nuking the ROM it still would not boot. I then put in a spare SD, used recovery to copy everything from internal to external to save all my valuable data and only after wiping the internal SD was I able to get the phone to boot again after re-installing the ROM.
I then transferred all valuable files back to internal SD, restored from a recovery backup and then was good to go. A bit strange but I got it working again.
Eventually I might upgrade from LiquidSmooth but I like it and have no reason to change for now.
Hi guys,
I'm new to this forum. My HTC Desire 300 is not rooted in anyway. Lately I've been experiencing problems with the System UI. It suddenly stopped working one day, and from then on, the notification bar never worked properly again. It comes back at random times, but even trying to pull it down will make it crash. Swiping a notification away and even just doing nothing to it will cause it to crash. I don't know why this is happening. I've tried factory reset, hard reset, battery pull, booting in safe mode, scanning for viruses, literally everything I can. Nothing works. Booting the phone up will show the error message and sometimes the error message will come up every few seconds then eventually stop and I never see it again until I restart the phone or shut it down and turn back on. Can somebody please help? I'm running 4.1.2 Jelly Bean.
I know that this in not best solution but you could try factory reset. You'll lose all of your data but you mobile should work normally.
Right now I have problem with Bluetooth and planing on doing same thing (or maybe try different ROM ).

I wish I could fix it by factory reset, but I've literally done it like 5 times. Nothing works. I still get the same error. I've also tried clearing the cache for system UI app in the "all apps" list, but there is no data on the System UI app, it says 0.00B. I can't clear any cache or data. And I also notice that sometimes System UI app will run in the "running apps" list, but it is "restarting", and it seems like it fails to restart because it is always restarting.
How can I fix my ROM? My phone is not rooted and I have never modded it and installed any ROMs on it. Right now I'm just using 2 notification apps on the Play Store so that I get some sort of notification. But it's just not the same as the notification bar itself. I'm tempted to buy another phone, but when I was looking this problem up on the Internet, it seems like many phones, even the new and good ones get the same problem. So I'm really hesitating.
Did you try to do factory reset from Android or boot loader? Maybe other reset will do the trick.

Uhm what do you mean by bootloader? I think I've attempted to unlock my bootloader but I never actually did it. So I don't think I unlocked my bootloader. But I don't know how to factory reset by bootloader or by other ways that you are talking about. The way I do the factory reset is through my phone's system settings > Backup & reset > Reset phone. I've also tried hard reset.
I mean from default recovery not bootloader. Sorry, my bad.
Hi everyone. I have a sporadic problem with my vanilla note 3 from t mobile. Its a totally random occurrence but sometimes it will freeze(loose all input functionality) sometimes it will just stay black screen(no input taking) and usually (not always) it will reboot itself after this happens(sometimes a battery pull is required). Is this a memory leak issue? Thanks for any help. Sometimes it will run fine for a week or 2 and then all the sudden it will start acting up.
Was it rooted? I had a similar issue before mine was rooted, some of the system load programs that I didn't use would start up and then grab all resources. ..
Mine was doing the same thing while rooted with towelroot. Even after I unrooted it was doing the same thing. I didn't try a factory reset, but T-Mobile is sending me a replacement phone.

If it was my phone I would do cache wipe first, if still no go then full factory reset and I would then reinstall most important programs first.
Restarting phone every few days is not a bad idea on it's own and BTW when was the last time you cleaned garbage from it?
Hi Friends, installed oreo on my phone and everything was fine. One day the phone suddenly hung up, then started to reset. I installed Cleanrom. The problem persisted in him. The battery was a little swollen, I bought a new battery, and the problems remained.
The phone was reset when entering whatsapp last night and the software was corrupted. When I deleted system / data / cache with Twrp, it gave errors and the phone is no longer available. I came to mind to install kdz, I installed kdz, the phone was fixed. Currently whatsapp installed is still no problem but I can not root phone resets.
Do you think my phone is broken, is there a solution for this? What should I do. Thanks.
