WiFi on -> Crash : Hardware or Software related? - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey folks,
since yesterday I have a serious problem with my Xperia Z3 compact D5803:
After waking up my phone from Stamina it just crashed.
Then it was stuck in a boot loop.
With TWRP I was able to (temporary) fix the boot loop:
- Advanced -> Fix Permission (also SElinux)
- Mount -> System
- Advanced -> File Manager -> Copy build.prop to /system
- Reboot: System
However the system was very laggy, running hot and had a high battery drainage (like 1 percent per minute). In OS Monitor I saw dhd_dpc had around 20% CPU usage (which is related to WiFi), so I disabled WiFi, which fixed these issues.
However after reactivating WiFi system crashed and again stuck in boot loop. And now I can't even fix the boot loop....
So what do the experts say:
a) Is this software or hardware related? (Notice: While the system was laggy, I was still able to download data via WiFi, so the antenna cannot be broken completely)
b) What can I try to fix the boot loop?
c) I guess last resort is factory reset. What else can I try before that?
Thanks!

Anyone?

Unless you say what you actually did to break the device, you're really not going to get much help. Once you own up to what you did to it, perhaps someone can figure out how to fix it.
If you've messed up the ROM, a factory reset isn't going to fix it. You'll need to reflash.

As discussed on IRC, I did nothing on the ROM or the system at all!
However apparently my try on fixing the boot loop, with copying a backup of the build.prop, did in fact broke the boot due to wrong permissions. I was able to fix this with a chmod 0644 on the build.prop.
Now the phone boots fine so far and isn't laggy anymore, however I have still problem with high battery drainage. The phone merely lasts one day...
Under battery usage it is just listing "Android system" as main appliance.
So I hope this is somehow software related and will go with a re-flash. Also then I can use this opportunity to update to 5.1.1 - at least something....

my motorola droid keeps restarting can somebody please help me

i have a motorola droid and it is rooted.i flashed a new rom and then i flashed sprecovery,i let it run its course and i disconnected the phone.when the phone turns on it starts up and then a red light comes on and my phone says please connect charger.it keeps saying android process is not responding and then the phone shuts itself off.ive tried to boot it into recovery mode and do a restore,it keeps giving me an error that says nandroid exited with status 20 and its also not reading my sd card.can somebody tell me whats happened and if it can be fixed???please and thank you
Well, seems as if you need to reflash or restore because of bad flash. If you try flashing again make sure you wipe data and cache. As far as not reading sdcard I have same problem not sure why but when I'm in recovery and I choose install zip which I used clockworkmod recovery, if it fails then it reboots automatically after couple seconds not sure if this happens with sprecovery. After sdcard mount fail it shuts down and reboots so before it reboots I pull the battery and wait a minute or two before trying again. It may take me 3 to 4 times of doing this but eventually it will mount sdcard in recovery. I recommend keep trying till it allows you to apply recovery file and then flash to either clockworkmod or sprecovery which ever one you not using and then flash back to the one you want. I'd also recommend try if after all this you flash rom again and same thing happens redownload it and try again. Good luck.

Feel free to ask any question and I will be ready for you

No i still got that problem...when i put on charger its get normal and use 3% battery for some time and then get back again ~70% and drain battery over night...
For most people,this kind of sudden battery drains have disappeared after a few cycles of charge/discharge,maybe 5 or 6?
maybe you should recallibrate your battery.
here the link:

it worked! just recalibrate ur battery and the OS prozess is again under 5%
support the guy!
thank you I'll try it
Hi guys, im having same problem, Android OS uses the most battery of all processes, but it is in use only when screen is off. Drain is about 1% / 3 minutes! I had it before on JVK but i fixed it by cleaning dalvik cache. Now on JVB nothing works. I tried to clear dalvik cache, deleted ota update apps, cleaned cache partition, fixed permissions, deleted batterystats, changed kernel, turned off autostart for most apps and the battery drain is still there, even after reboot
I'm on Juwe's Smart Edition 4.1 with DamianGTO beta 6 kernel. Please help.
Hey, Recalibration really worked out in such problem. Thank you, very much.

Phone sometimes reboots on startup.

My Moto X is rebooting on system startup. It doesn't happen always, but when it happens, it's always when the system is starting, when the apps are starting and being granted root permissions, etc. If I don't do anything, is fine, but If I unlock my screen while the apps are loading on startup and start to open some apps, it reboots(not always). I don't know If it overloads or something, but aLogcat doesn't record anything after the system reboots. I've already used Boot Manager to disable some apps from starting, but the problem persists. It's a Moto X 4.4.4 Stock and I never had this problem before. I belive t's a Xposed Module, but I want to know which one is. I've already did a factory reset, then rooted again, but the problem persists.(before I rooted I wasn't having this problem, this is why I believe it has to do with some Xposed Module or something related to root.)
PS: I will pay you 5 dollars(via Paypal) If you help me and find the problem (what's causing it) via these 2 logs. I know it isn't much, but I want to show some appreciation for helping me.
Here's the kernel message:

Here's another one that I got right after the reboot happened.(I've waited for the device to start, connected my device to USB, then went to adb and wrote # adb shell dmesg.

There is something wrong with your data partition ....

Hello World,
before I explain my problem, I am most humbly asking for one small favour:
Please(!!) nobody give me any advice along the line of: Just do a factory reset and start from scratch
I've got almost a thousand apps installed on my system and I'm in no mood to even try to reconfigure it all over again.
Some time ago I installed the latest beta of Cyanogenmod on my Samsung Galaxy Note Tablet SM-P900.
After some time I encountered so many quirks with it, that I decided to flash back to the latest stable build 12.1-20151029 (Android v5.1.1).
Since I was always able to upgrade w/o wiping data, I did the same here, but right after the downgrade the system started misbehaving.
Matter of fact, I could only boot through to the desktop, once I had removed some google.* related dirs from the data/data location. Right afterwards I reinstalled the affected apps from backup and that fixed that.
Unfortunately during the proces of peeking and poking in data/data I messed up some ownership/permission settings.
I also managed to fix those via an old backup (via: chmod/chown --reference), *but* now I am getting a popup message telling me:
"There is something wrong with your data partition..." everytime I reboot the system.
Afterwards I can work just fine with the tablet, but every 3rd or 4th day it suddenly reboots - then being stable again for another couple of days.
If I could only find out what fault this messages refers to, I could fix it manually - but I couldn't find anything useful by reviewing the logcat info.

Stuck on Boot: System UI has stopped Working

Hi all,
once my S5 mini boots up, it shows "System UI has stopped Working" and shows only my wallpaper. Power button is still working (i.e. shutdown menu appears), home button turns on display, anything else doesn't work.
Here is what I tried without success:
- remove SIM/SD
- go to airplane mode (possible from the menu when holding down power)
- Boot into "safe mode"
- Wipe cache in recovery mode
- use Kies (and Lite) to copy/reset (not working..)
- use Smart Switch to copy data to another phone
What seems to be the problem is the "Google App", according to various posts; e.g. [1, 2, ...]. But I cannot access settings and disable the app.
Is there any way to activate adb without being able to grant permissions from the phone and use it to remove the app? Any other ways to uninstall/reset this particular app?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
yyy
Alright, it didn't leave me alone
I managed to get my files by flashing TWRP into recovery and getting contacts2.db (and everything else I needed) with adb pull.
Even wiping the Dalvik / ART Cache and the Cache from TWRP had no effect on the hangup. Even bute-deleting the searchbar-app didnt do nothing.
Godspeed to everyone with the same problem.
