I recently bought a new note 2, and everything was good and I love it!
But yesterday I was on the phone to a friend and initially I tried putting him on speaker phone, but the screen wouldn't turn on, only the soft touch keys at the bottom lit up. I thought nothing of it and continued my phone call.
It wasn't until he hung up I noticed i still coudn't the damn thing on. So i removed the battery and re inserted it. Here's where things get interesting though, now whenever i try to power it up, i get a little red light in my proximity sensor (i think) that flashes for about half a second.
I've tried soft rest, which does the same thing ( makes the proximity sensor light up for half a second)
Hard reset which does the same thing.
I haven't rooted the phone or anything. Luckily its still under manufacture warranty and I'll get samsung to have a look at it, but any thoughts on what it could be?

Well, I can tell the that the red light is normal, I get that too and its just because its booting up, when you turn your phone on, what happens exactly?
Thanks for the reply. When I press the power button, around a second later the red light blips for half a second and turns off, but the OS doesn't boot up and nothing happens.

Hmmm, This is the first time I heard of a situation like this... Try searching on the site or probably wait for someone to reply....

Maybe you too.... Sorry that sucks.
This PSA was sent Flow style from my Note 2 N-7100
Now i am really getting worriyng about this, does note2 has started SDS ?
atleast 3-4 cases are reported with same symptoms.
Anyway can you tell
You were on which ROM when this happened?
Are you getting to reboot in recovery/download mod?
@dingokevin I had a read over the thread you linked, and I fear the worst has happened to my note 2. This seems like a serious issue and even a flaw with the motherboard perhaps? Thank the lord it is still under warranty. R.I.P old friend.
@dr.ketan Im not sure what SDS stands for... Yeah I was running stock touchwiz 4.1.1 I think. No modifications and no root what so ever, and nope :/ I tried holding down volume down key + home button + power but no cigar, just the proximity light flashes briefly.
SDS - sudden death syndrome
And if you are unable to get into download/recovery mode then nothing can be done except send it to service station. it highly suggests sudden death which is very known issue for SGS3.
Replying to your query at other thread, you will get motherboard replacement if it is under warranty.
Ahh thats probably whats happened then. Thanks guys, I'll send it off to samsung and have a word or two with them to see why this is happening to many people!
If possible share outcome here too.

Same thing happened to my friends note 2 and some other people. Is sds happening to the note 2 also now ?? I am very worried

Or could be that screen was damaged somehow.
Sds bug generally happened due to long time in sleep mode.
It happened to him during call

I was just reading up on some possible causes here on XDA with peoples S3's and someone suggested corrupted NAND memory.. I think this maybe the case because before the phone call I had installed Gangster Rio (which i honestly did purchase off the play store, hand on heart) and after playing it for a while decided to un install it and get a refund. Could me doing this have caused the NAND memory to corrupt? The game is a pretty large file...

I highly doubt it was screen damage, imho. I only received the phone last friday and have been cradling it like a fragile little baby, Its never been out of my sight lool.
Maybe i just got really unlucky and ended up with a faulty device.
If screen fault then in such case usually you can hear boot up sound. It seems your case very well fits to sds category only.

Hi Guys,
Got up this morning having left my Note 2 turned on and on charge overnight to discover this same fault -
slow flashing Red light and phone totally dead.
Unable to do anything to rectify the situation.
Still under warranty of course, phone only released in October 2012.
Is this a fault with the phone which necessitates replacement or just a battery problem?
Would be grateful for any advice / guidance / help.
Thanks,
Mike Longley.

It seems also like SDS send it to Repair AFAIK is a chip problem, not battery so you can't do anything to repair it. If it is under warranty and with counter at 0 send it. They must repair it.

Hey everyone,
I bought my 8.0 this afternoon (was looking at tablets and saw a lot of good things mentioned here so i took the plunge) and its not turning on. When I turned it on for the very first time, it stayed on the Samsung screen for a long time (i would say 10+ minutes). I know from my other Samsung products that it usually doesnt take that long to boot up, even for the first time, so I hit the power button to restart it and its hasnt turned on since. Has anyone heard of anything like this before? By the time everything happened Best Buy was closed so I will take it back tomorrow for them to look at but I was hoping someone may know whats the issue and I wouldnt have to return it. Thanks in advance.
Are you sure it has enough charge? Try plugging it in for a while.

If you find that there is enough of a charge If I were you I would just have it replaced especially since you're starting off on such a bad note.
Thanks guys for responding.....ya i have been letting it charge since i first made this post and its still not turning on. Ill just have BB swap it out
First one I grabbed yesterday had LCD leakage ( like someone put a lot of pressure) in the upper left corner. Swapped it out no problems. Second one looks like its good lol.

Try Samsung support chat
If you are getting desperate, you might try Samsung support. They have a chat service and the helper may be able to get it going. If you hold down the power and volume up (or is it down) buttons for 15 seconds, you might get the reboot menu. But I would connect with Samsung's 24/7 chat help and see if maybe they can help.

Hey everybody,
I rooted my phone a couple weeks ago and one day it just pooped out. I researched a bunch on google etc and found some things to try but so far no solutions.
Model: SGH-T999 T-mobile s3 (Used CF-Auto-Root and Odin for rooting)
Problem: After the phone pooped out, I was unable to enter recovery mode. I could enter dl mode however it crashes at variable intervals. So I bought a jig figuring maybe that would help but it still crashes in dl about 5 seconds later. Any suggestions?
Everything that I have found on the internet has been were people can usually get it into dl mode and keep it there or they cant get there at all even with a jig. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
If you were running stock it's probably a hardware problem. If not what Rom are you on? What/when/how was your most recent flashes?
Have you tried kAsp3rd's brick fix in dev section?

It starts and then crashes. After awhile it might make it to the animation with the blue wave forming around the words samsung, but usually it crashes on the Samsung Galaxy SIII logo in the beginning. Also when I put it into download mode it crashes anywhere from 1-5 seconds after. When I try to get into recovery mode it crashes almost right away when the blue words are at the top left of the screen.
Also when I put the battery in it tries to boot on its own without me pressing power button, and sometimes it tries to reboot after it crashes and turns off without me pressing anything. Also after it crashes I usually cannot just press the power button to try and power it up again so I have to take the battery out and put it back in.
When I was doing the Kasperd brick fix I used the T999 debrick image. How do I know if I have a different variant of the T999. I saw that some people had T999v and T999N. What are those?
Look under the battery for your model. Sounds like a power button issue. All I can say is try fiddling with it a bit. May have to open to see if it is physically always in contact, or it could be a deeper issue on the board. Hard to say.

Ok I just see T999 on the label.
How can it be a hardware issue when I never dropped the phone or anything. I was just thinking it was because I rooted the phone because it happened about a week after I rooted it. It was working one minute and then a couple hours later when I took it out of my pocket it was off and I tried turning it on and all that stuff started happening. I will definitely check the power button though. Thanks for the help.
Also another piece of info to add. When I plug it in to charge both the battery charging symbol and red light will sometimes turn on and then it crashes/goes black similar to what happens when trying to power up the phone. Not sure if that helps at all. Thanks!
If my phone was hard bricked I wouldnt be able to turn it on at all correct? Im trying to figure out if I will need to get this thing jtagged or something in order to get it working again.

Physical damage is not a prerequisite of hardware failure. Ever have a hard drive go bad? Did you drop it first?

True, however I just find it odd that I rooted the phone and a week later it happened. That is why I am leading towards an issue involving that and not hardware damage.
If it was a problem with rooting, it would have gone south right away. Many people are having these button issues recently. And you don't have to drop it, like aerowinder said, but you do use the button right? Moving parts wear out. Hardware fails. That's really all there is to it. While I could be wrong in my diagnosis, I don't think that will prove to be the case here.

It does most certainly sound like a hardware issue in the power button. I read another thread very similar to this same thing on the T999.

I took the back casing off to see if the button is getting stuck or anything, but all the mechanics look normal.

I would recommend searching around for others who have had the same issue and seeing what their resolutions were. I've not seen many on here but google turned up quite a few.

Thanks guys! I found a good thread on here about the S3 sudden death thread. Im going to read up on that and see what I can do. It was just tough to find since I was thinking it was bricked but the descriptions for this power button sudden death thing sound spot on. Hopefully I will be able to get everything back in working order.
Hi guys, I have a weird problem and I need your advice.
My brand new galaxy Note 3 Sm-N900T is having screen blackouts....
Its like after the screen timeout the screen goes off and then when I press the power button it doesn't go back on again.
Or if I turn the screen off it doesn't go back on again... the buttons are working the sounds are on, I can answer calls and everything but the screen is black.
If I play with it (pressing power or home buttons) for a while it comes back on. Sometimes the phone restarts (rarely, I think because i press power button).
I have tried everything from playing with settings to wiping the cache and resetting the phone few times.
It looks like its a software issue to me, or maybe sensor.. but i think that when power button is pressed the screen should turn on regardless of sensors.
I do have the custom S-Case but I had the issue even before I got that.
Now.. I have few choices :
1. Go to t-Mobile and get a replacement.. probably refurbished, not a fact that the problem will away because I heard of lots of people having this issue ...
I of course do not want to do that.. I have this phone for less than a month.
2. Wait for KitKat....
3. install some kind of custom rom and see if problem goes away.
If anyone can help, Id really appreciate it.
I would do an exchange.. you paid good money for it and a defect is a defect, I wouldn't depend on a 3rd party patch for this

This may be jelly bean bug... Lots and lots of people report the same problem...
If I replace my piece I will probably get a refurbished one with a great chance of having this or some kind of another problem......

sucks man.
I know on my htc onei have the purple camera problem but everything else was fine. they had to send me 2 replacements because the first one had a yellow screen and worse camera then mines.
Tmobile doesnt even check there replacement. Most of the time there phones that people traded in. And all they do with those is a power on check.
Now if you just got the phone and within the 14 exchange you can take it to the store and get a brand new one.
Had it for more than 2 weeks now.. since i was always playing with it i did not notice the problem .. (the screen was always on).
I called Samsung and Tmobile. I told tmobile that samsung said i have a defective phone. so Tmobile is sending me a "Like new" phone meaning that someone returned it within 14 days. I get to check it and if i dont like it i will just send them their phone back. and suddenly mine doesnt do the problem for 30 minutes lol.. maybe it got scared. Personally i think that KitKat would fix it.
Any force closes? I had this problem too untill I stopped using the crapy My Magazine bloatware, which was also sometimes force closing...
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
No, no force closes, but one time it was funny, a little bit of status bar appeared from the bottom and on top it was a little bit cutoff.... like someone slid the screen up few pixels.
And whatever was cut just came from the bottom. Its weird... for $700 phone it should be flawless... I hope they dont send me crap phone and i hope they dont send my phone to someone else.
How can i get rid of it to see if that was the problem?
My phone works perfect and I had if since the first week they came out. .. It's not a jellybean thing you phone has a problem. ..

I figured id try to reflash (not data reset, but reflash via Kies) so far so good no problem.
The whole thing looks like soft prob, not hard.
If it comes back Ill let you know. This could be a nice fix if works.
I'm in nyc, and my local store called the warrenty center and got me a brand new SGS2 one time. It still had all the blue plastic in the sim card and sd card slots, and plastic on the screen. So I'm know they can request it, just depends on your store if they are willing.

My sgs2 had problems out of the box. After I installed custom ROM they went away. It does happen. Restored stock via Odin, still no problems. Sometimes the software doesn't flash correctly from the manufacturer.

Well, I dont know what to think anymore... Looks like the problem persists but happens so rare that without the past I wouldnt notice it.
This makes me believe that with KitKat it will probably disappear. If soft changes cause this to go away or be less it means (to me) that the phone is not defective. New phone is still on the way, to bad I did not purchase it at local store... I did it online, so there is no one to yell at.
It will arrive on Feb 6th so I have plenty of time to test my phone, with some luck KitKat will roll out during this time and then I will be able to definitely see. And if new phone is cool I have the option of exchange anyway .
Thank you all for your help, keep posting, its an interesting issue.
:/
Phone went worse and worse everyday ... now the S-Pen "Air Command" doesnt pop up, several weird disfunctions...
Waiting for the replacement.
Just wondering if it's just me or the screen on the Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 is way too sensitive. When I try to scroll the page (on Google+ for example) I always end up opening something. It makes me not want to use it. It's really frustrating.
I also tried using a stylus (Wacom Bamboo Solo) and the result is the same.
So, is it only me? Is there any solution for that?
I have the same issue using Pulse. It's been good for gaming though. I might try a screen protector and see if it makes a difference.

Depends on what you're coming from.
I found the S4 to be very sensitive at first but that was from the S2 and OneX. The S3 may have been about the same as the S4 for all I know.
It would make sense if it started in Samsung devices when they added the hover function to their devices. They also made them more compatible with gloves around that time.
I doubt the Tab Pro is much more sensitive than the S4 but I don't own one yet.
You'll likely get used to it very quickly like I did.

The sensitivity on my device was extremely off.
I did little research today. I went to Best buy and tested the Tab Pro 8.4 in the showroom, it performed much better than mine, no issues, "normal" sensitivity... (looks like this issue is not affecting all the Tab Pro 8.4 tablets)
I called Samsung support to find out what's going on. I was told to do a reset on the device. I did it through the Samsung recovery - full wipe.
Now everything seem to be "normal". Looks like that solved my problem.
BTW, I'm using HTC One (replaced my old S2)

I have the exact same problem.. The screen is way too sensitive and I hate using this tablet. I wish I could return it. Thought it was just me.

Try to do the factory reset and post your feedback after its done.
Do it in the recovery mode.
1. Power down your device.
2. Hold Volume Up and Power at the same time until you see the Samsung logo appear. Then release.
3. In the recovery mode press Wipe Data/Factory Reset.
4. Reboot and wait for few minutes untill everything loads.

My Tab Pro 8.4 has the same problem making it almost completely useless. When scrolling it constantly opens wherever I lift my finger. It's also constantly zooming in & out. I tried the Wipe Data/Factory Reset twice with no resolution. I didn't use it much the first couple weeks as I was waiting to get a case before using it and now it's too late to return it to Best Buy. I wanted to love, it but I find myself never using it now. I also tried adjusting the Press and Hold delay.

After I did the Factory Reset I noticed some improvement, but I'm still not satisfied with it. On top of that I started noticing the digital noise coming from the speakers (reported by other users) when I open a game and mute the sound.
And just like like you, I don't want to hate my $400 device.
I decided to send it to Samsung for repairs. I'm shipping it today.
BTW Best Buy's return/exchange policy sucks!
I went there after 25 days of purchase to ask if I can exchange it and they said:
"no, but you can bring it to the Geek Squad and they will take a look at it for a small charge" :/
We should definitely have more than 15 days to return/exchange faulty device!

Opening those ad pages on websites and opening random videos on youtube is getting really annoying. Samsung needs to provide an update asap. The screen sensitivity makes this tablet useless.
just got my Tab Pro 8.4" 32GB today instead of the Tab Pro 10.1" which i returned.
was a bit nervous about the sensitivity problem. but after playing with it for about 1 hour I can say its perfectly fine..
My 8.4 is the same, way too sensitive.
Sent from my SM-T320 using XDA Premium HD app
I have this same issue, too sensitive.
Same problem T325
same issue with hong kong version.
I flashed unofficial cm11, it improved the problem, but it still happens. so I assume this is a hardware related? Then I tried us and china official roms, make the tablet unusable. This is too bad. I want to love this tablet, but samsung just ruined it.
I had the same issue across all 4 devices (multiple exchanges for the speaker issue).
I found that If you install a screen protector it minimizes the problem. So I would give that a go.
