[Q] a problem after installed new ROM (Froyo 2.2)

I installed it yesterday via Kies. after finished, it told me to reboot then I did, When I turned on the phone, it just started as normal with flashing S logo.
10-15 seconds later the screen turned black and the menu and back buttons lights on with a vibration sometimes.
I just cant use 3 buttons to get into any modes or use CMD to get into it. I just bought it last week and never installed any ROMS in it.
Any help, please?

I've had some issues after Kies upgrade... my apps kept crashing and not responding. I think I even had the same problem like you. All I did is a factory reset. Go to Settings -> Privacy and under Personal Data you'll find Factory data reset. Try it. Be carefull before doing a factory reset, try backup your data (phonebook, contacts, messages etc.) Hope it helps

I cant even get into the phone. got stuck at the logo..

the phone will auto reboot... how come you have to reboot it yourself?

[Q] Phone suddenly «wiped» / won’t boot

Yesterday I suddenly found my phone to be turned off by itself. When I tried to turn it on again, nothing usually happened. Sometimes however, it looked like it would turn on, but the white bootlogo would barely show, or maybe up to a second, and then it would go black again. When connecting a charger the charging icon would show for a second, and then black again, and still the phone wouldn’t boot. Recovery or download mode wouldn’t work either. I was hoping it was only the battery that had just died, since the phone won’t work at all without the battery, even with the charger connected. But when I tested a friends battery today, it would still not boot, and my battery worked fine in his phone. But, at least it turned on each time now, showing the bootlogo for a second, and then all black again. Recovery mode still won’t work, but I’m able to get it in download mode. If I connect the phone to the PC by cable first, it won’t start or go in download mode, I have to get it in dowmload mode first and then connect. I was using stock system v2.3.3 from about a year ago, but with Clockworkmod kernel.
So what could have happened? I figure the system is either corrupt, or even wiped?
Or could the phone itself be badly corrupted?
I also have to mention, that a few months ago the internal and external SD-card was suddenly wiped, and I got a message about error on one of them and had to reformat.
Since download mode is ok, I hope there is a chance to maybe flashing the system again with Odin?
Is ther any way to connect the phone to the pc and get access to the memory to maybe copy whatever data still there, if any? Or can I reflash to just put the new system on top of everything without formatting?

I think your sd connectors are corroded or damaged. For your data try to flash the semaphore kernel by Odin to get a recovery (link ). After flashing, go into the recovery look for "mont and storage" and select "mount usb storage" or something like that. With your pc connect your device and copy your data in your pc like an usb stick.
If it doesnt work, say goodbye to your data and try to reflash a rom by Odin

Please reply me for more info

Thanks, I'll try that tomorrow morning at work, don't have the time today.
At least I do have a complete backup from about two months ago, so it's no disaster about the data. There's not really anything that important on the phone, it's just all the work setting everything up like I want it again.

Please reflash a stock rom with odin...

I was able to flash semapfore kernel, but still I couldn't get the phone in recovery mode.
Flashed stock firmware 2.3.3 (last nordic version), and the phone booted fine, but lots of old programs kept crashing and messing with the system. Best of all, everything on the internal sd was there, so all the latest titaniumbackup was there. So I copied this to the PC, did a factory reset, flashed CF-root again, copied the titaniumbackup and clockworkmod-backup to the internal sd, and cwm-backup is beeing restored as we speak. Then titaniumbackup will be restored and everything should be fine for now.
I'll be leaving for holiday in a week, so I don't want to use lots of time right now to do a clean setup of the phone. There is way too much other things I have spend my time on before the holiday. But after the holiday I think I'll just have to do so.
Thanks for helping.

For your apps who crash you have to wipe apps data (with TB).

The apps crashing when I just reflashed didn't really matter since I was going to install the backup anyway.
But a few apps kept crashing even after I flashed the backup. So wipe app data was what I eventually found out I had to do.

And so the same thing happened again.
But this time it doesn't seem like reflashing will help at all.
Crappy trashphone, it's been a disaster rom day one.

The phone won't boot, and won't go into recovery mode, only download mode.
When I turn it on the boot logo only shows barely, and then nothing happens, just like last time.
I've tried reflashing several times using Odin, but this time it doesn't help, phone still won't boot. I've tried both without repartition, and wit repartition (and pit).

My friend got me to put his phone on cm9 after using froyo for a long time.
The strange thing was that the method to get into recovery suddenly changed from volume up, power and home. For some reason it is now both volume buttons, home and power ..
Just thought I'd share this since your recovery should work after a kernel flash.

[Q] GT-N7100 multiple issues

Hi guys, first of all this is my first post here and won't be my last.
I am an Apple/iPhone long time user and want to tryout Android, just because I think it's time for a change , without knowing if I could get used to the new OS and wanting to spend as less as possible on this "endeavor" I bought a second hand Galaxy Note 2 GT-N7100 from a friend, the phone worked perfectly when I bought it, it had Android 4.1.2 on it and I wanted to update it to 4.4.2, did some research on the net about this (learned about the locked bootloader - this wasn't an issue for me coming from the iPhone) and updated the phone using Kies - and this is were the fun begins.
The update failed, and the phone was softbricked but could still go into download and recovery mode, after reading a few hours on the internet, I used Odin to flash a 4.3 stock rom for the n7100 which I downloaded from samsung-updates, the software got installed on the phone but it was very laggy (with the phone opened but locked, when I pressed the power button it took about 7-8 seconds for the display to light-up, the animations were very sluggish and phone was unusable).
I installed another ROM, using Odin, this time a 4.4.2, with the same results (every time I reset to factory setting and wipe cache from recovery - this didn't help).
I then installed clockwork recovery and rooted the phone then installed cyanogenmod 10.1 which worked almost ok but if i locked the phone after a few seconds the phone would restart, wipe cache/restore factory settings didn't help, i installed it again hoping it would be just an issue with the installation but had the same result, phone would restart.
I've followed all tutorials I could find related to this phone and this issue, installed several patches, reinstalled several stock roms, installed Criskelo rom, all with the same result, the phone is very very very slow and freezez after a while or it restarts after i lock the phone.
So, let me just give u some history on the phone, enumerate the symptoms and where I am right now:
History:
The phone was bought from Vodafone Romania, was never rooted and was never updated (before me ) and still has 3 months warranty.
Symptoms:
- Phone is very slow, unusable
- Freezes after the display is locked
- it is not recognized in windows, when I connect it i can hear the windows connect chime but the phone storage is not mounted, in device manager the phone is recognised as "cdc communication interface" which is not installed - i have the samsung drivers installed, and i have tried on other PC's with the same result, I also tried with several data cables - same thing - the phone works ok when in recovery/download mode
- sometimes when the phone is connected to the PC and the screen goes dark a gray battery appears with a "wait circle" and the phone freezes
- in recovery the phone displays 14 bynaries downloaded and also knox warranty void 1
- most of the roms freez in the language selection screen - i boot-up the phone (after i do a restore factory settings) the installing application dialog appears and then the language selection screen appears, then after 5-6 seconds the phone freezes - the freeze is not triggered by something I do it's triggered by time, after 5-6 seconds no matter what I do with the phone the phone freezes, if it makes any difference, exactly before the phone freezes the display brightness goes to the maximum setting.
Where I am right now
- I installed another stock rom, 4.4.2, it worked acceptable for a few minutes (it got passed the initial setup with no issues) then i left it on the desk, the display went dark and the battery thing happened again and the phone froze, i restarted the phone in recovery, did a factory reset, when the phone started it froze on the language selection screen.
I am at this for about a week now and I have no more ideas and no more patience, and run out of threads and tutorials to read, I am 1 step away of using the phone as a paperweight so please help, any idea would be appreciated, even if it's to enlighten me about what happened and telling me that the phone is bricked.
I am willing to try anything even if it is risky and can totally brick the phone, this is not my main phone and it's purpose is to help me understand android, and help me not make the same mistakes next time.
But, if it's possible I would like to fix the phone because even though it's pretty old it's still an ok phone.

Sorry wrong forum. You need N7100, not the n7000. Good luck.

Note 5 freezes, reboots without any apparent reason

Since a few days now, my Note 5 N920C just randomly freezes, hangs and reboots. Sometimes the screen goes black and then it reboots sometimes the screen is just the last thing i was using and then it reboots. It even happens when im in recovery trying to flash a zip or when the phone is switched off and charging.
I have tried:
1) Wiping Cache
2) Wiping all data / Factory reset
3) Safe mode (Still reboots)
4) Uninstalling all apps
5) Flashing stock firmware from Samsung Smart Switch
6) Rooting and flashing a new kernel (SkyHigh)
After all of this i still have the same problem. Is there something else i can do? Phone is not in warranty so i really want to make sure there is nothing else i can do to fix or understand the problem before spending money on repairs.
Thanks in advance

Have you checked that there is no power-related issues with the device?

Constant reboots

I've been facing a weird problem with my G800H since yesterday. The phone will reboot constantly. It will boot into android, I will even be able to open apps, but it will suddenly reboot after a minute or so. I didn't do anything to my phone for it to start doing this. The weirdest part is that the rebooting will happen even if I am in recovery mode (TWRP). Also, the phone will automatically turn on if I take off the battery and put it back in, something that never happened before.
I use stock 6.0.1 (rooted) and TWRP 3.0.
Things I've already tried:
Charging it;
Safe mode (same problem);
Taking off SD card (who knows);
Wipe cache/dalvik (phone restarts before finishing);
Re-install ROM ( Download mode (ODIN) doesn't open, insta-restart after 'press volume up to enter odin').
I really dont want to do a full factory reset, only as a last resort, as i don't even know if it will have time to do so, or even if it will fix it. Does anyone know a way for wiping the cache without having to format it ( takes too long in TWRP so phone restarts before finishing ), or maybe have some other way of entering download mode, maybe with adb, or finding out what went wrong. Any sugestions on what to do or what happened?

I (my wife) have the exact same problem, I bought a new battery which didn't solve the problem.
Also tried a factory reset, didn't help either.
It is a non rooted phone...
Next try is a custom rom, hope it helps...

Install an app that records logs like Logcat, set it in record mode and wait until the phone reboots. Then look through the file, study what happens near the end when the phone turns off. You'll most likely find the cause there.
