Hello developers,
Suddenly my note cant start any more, it shows the Samsung logo and then turn off.
in rare cases it will continue to the splash screen but then quickly turn off. ...
what would this be,,, a soft brick,,, a hard brick,,, or a battery problem,,,,

Easiest way to make sure it's not a battery problem is just to buy a new one from ebay and eliminate the possibility.
But it sounds like an internal problem to me, not software related. You could try a wipe.

I did a factory reset ( I was on JB then) and didn't solve the issue. when the phone is connected to the charger it can go beyond the Samsung logo and the splash screen for a while but will turn off quickly. without a charger it will only show the Samsung logo and then turn OFF.
Can you go into recovery, plug the cable, and then power off the phone? leave it like that for few minutes.
I can go into the download mode but not recovery.... what does that mean???? Tried your other suggestion, but no luck...!!
Is your battery swollen if looking at the side and you say it will go past splash screen if plugged into charger so does that mean it will boot into the Rom if plugged in or does it just stay splash screen and also if not able to get into recovery could mean something happened with the kernel so flashing a fresh jb Rom with Odin maybe what you need. The problem with that is if your battery is bad it could cause more problems trying to flash anything with dead battery as in bricking the device. So you should start with new battery and let charge a few hours then see if your phone boots up if not then you could flash with pc Odin and go from there.

He should try kernel option you gave him, if everything else failed. I read around there were like 3 people with same situation. Maybe they used the same thing?
Search philz kernel, download one or two, and flash those in odin. Its a safe kernel, and powerful cwm.
He probably fixed by now. Hope so, for his own good.
Issue Solved, It was broken battery, Changed the batter and the phone is working again. Thanks everybody for your help....

When I try to start my G1 the display just stays black, not the "stuck on g1 screen" problem, it stays black and it doesn't vibrate like it usually does when starting it.
What I did was rooting, changing recovery to amonra 1.7.0 and installing the spl_1_33_2003.zip spl update, the update was successfully as it restarted normally and started to boot. Then I wanted to get to the bootloader mode so I pulled the battery. Since then the only Reactions are the red LED when charging and the Blue LED when getting in this JTAG-Mode or whatever.
I couldn't find any thread about this problem and I already did this whole procedure on another G1 without any problems.
I really hope, that you can help me
you should have waited for it to boot before pulling the battery
it is a 2 stage install, first is preps , then it reboots and competes the flash
you have a brick now

You should not have pull the battery, that is a no no especially during the install.
Are you able to even go into any mode? IE: camera+power, etc...
Nope, no Mode works, tried every combination, it just wont start-.-

U definitely have a bricked G1.
Well if u can't get into recovery nor bootloader its a sure sign of a brick...
How charged was ur battery? My battery died one time and it wouldn't load up as well. It went from a full charge to nothing.. just a thought....
But try charging it and try to get back Into bootloader.. but don't rule anything out.
Will think more but keep us posted

Oh! Yea! Happens to mine last weekend. But mine was doing the splash screen loops.
Battery was about at 50%. Tried with another battery and everything's the same. Looks like I really bricked it-.-
Anyway, thanks for the help
Future reference when doing serious mods such as updating spl, radio always make sure you have a full charge as these things can drain ur battery pretty quick. And the last thing u want is for ur battery to die in the middle.....
Have u tried reformatting ur sdcard. ?

Why should I reformat it, it makes no difference at all if an sdcard is inside or not, and the sdcard is working without any problems

It does, sometime SD Card get corrupted. And it will prevent your phone from booting up correctly especially when you SD to install your apps etc...
Hi guys. My SGN is permanently freezing while booting. Suddenly the red lines appear and phone is stucked. It stucks on boot logo, or boot animation, or after successfull boot into system. It looks like this:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/61718936/IMAG0003.jpg
Phone becomes quite hot on the back near camera.
I bought phone with stock 2.3.6. It was running for about 2 hours and i made OTA update to 4.0.4. It started to reboot itself while i was using it. So thought, i might use custom ROM to get rid of this freezes and reboots. But no change. Even on 4.2.1. I reverted back to 2.3.6. I noticed, that these red lines changes and moves (or even whole screen becomes red) while i'm twisting or pressing phone on various places. So i think, there is cold solder joint somewhere on motherboard. Maybe on graphic chip, because i didn't notice this problem while in recovery or download mode.
Can anybody help me with this problem, or point me on right place to look at on motherboard? Thanks in advance.
Seems to be defective device. Check with service center.

If you're able to, run this app to check for errors, I take it you have root. If it crashes mid scan, you've got problems with your emmc.

I hope you will find a solution for your problem.
But I have to admit I had to smile ("grinsen" in German is a much better word for it) when I saw your title:
Freezing even when >30°C
i'm not able to run device anymore but i already tried this app for checking emmc and this is the one with that bug. But it doesn't matter, because i was flashing only safe kernels, and i don't think this emmc is problem. I think the culprit is graphic chip, or CPU, or CfRF (Chip for Random Freezes)
I was not able to find any similar problem. Tomorrow, i will try to put device into download mode, flash any custom safe kernel with CWM, leave device in this recovery, and see if it freezes again. If yes, the only option is to get device warmer for a few degrees (300-350°C with my heat station haha ) and i will see if there was any cold solder joint. If not, device will be dead anyway so i have nothing to lose

guys i've made a small progress. I put a pressure on back side of the phone near camera, and i turned the phone on. It successfully booted to system. When i stopped pushing phones back, red lines appeared immediately and phone freezed. When i start to twist phone in hands, lines were getting bigger or smaller. When i pressed the back cover again, lines disappear (but phone was still frozen).
So now my task is, to find out, which chip is badly soldered.

You guys started having strange issues with ur notes. Maybe its something like a self destruct programmed on your phones so that after a year or two people will switch their phones. Besides the bigger the phones are getting the more issues they are having.
A phone should be like a device that shouod work flawless, in case of emergency one is needing to make a call and found that the phone freezed.
Sometimes i blame everything to android. Despite years of open development. Its yet not stabilizing, i guess because of it being open source vendors are putting crap in it making it more vulnerable to issues.
I dont rely on android rather i use a cheap phone for calls and text or iphone. Its just good for internet, ebooks, movies, music and camera.

Try pulling out the battery and then let the phone dry like a pair of wet socks. Clean the contacts and fit any loose thing that there may be.
Check your cable, if is loose or not, this way you could find if there were any unwanted sparks applied on the device.
Notice how it gets hot when is plugged in and you're using it? the battery reaches quickly 55 degrees which is not optimum, wait to cool to below this temperature.
My condolences in this sad event. Take care.
It auto turn off, too
I tried many way to fix it, but nothing resolution the probelm :crying:
Anyone can help me? Tks

Is that with a old battery or a new battery?
Also, did you try factory reset? (if you're on stock, that will wipe your device, pics too so I would make a backup on your pc first).
I dont know, maybe old, I buy it in a small store, cheap price

Try factory reset. If that doesn't work, you'll have to look for a better battery.
I'm not sure why else it wouldn't stay on.
hi everybody, please help me. i'm going to explain the situation:
1. i'm using jellybam and paranoidandroid.
2. while i'm in recovery, no problems. the phone keeps working pefectly.
3. during the boot or after very few seconds of usage the phone dies completely (no sods, it shuts off, like with discharged battery).
4. if i use the Note with charger no problems, the phone keeps working perfectly.
in conclusion, it seems a battery problem, but i'n not sure because i can stay in recovery as long as i want and nothing happens, but on rom boot the phone shuts down.
have i to buy a new battery or send it to samsung?
flash stock rom, if problem still persist buy new battery, if still..sent it to service center..
BTW, all questions belong in the Q&A Section, not in General or Development..thread reported.
Get a new battery, this is the only solution.

Thanks for all your answers. This is how the story ends. I decided to bring my note in an assistance center, but before i had to turn back on stock rom. I installed the new rom with odin. When the note rebooted, i unplugged it. It worked still the end of first configuration (with samsung logo on screen), then shutted off again. Now it does not boot anymore, stuck on device name. They will send to repair with the problem "-the phone does not boot."

First I want to apologize if this issue is already treated in the forum, my English is not so good and I don't know how to find it. I will appreciate if someone can help me to fix the problem or to find the right thread.
The phone was working normally, battery was fully charged, then it started to change the bright of the screen and suddenly the battery was low. Some seconds after that the phone turned off and it does not start again. When I try Samsung Galaxy Note logo appears and then it turns off again. If I try recovery mode it doesn't start but I can put it in download mode if the phone is charging. (If not, a no battery message appears). Anyway, I cannot backup and I cannot use the phone. Android version was up to date and the phone was rooted. I would like to backup it if possible but if not I would like to tray a hard reset, but I cannot do this without recovery mode...
Thanks
You could start with trying a different battery.
