Hi guys. This issue just started happening a couple of days ago, it started when I was playing games (phone wasn't hot) then it turned off by itself. My battery was still at 80% so I turned it back on, after it started saying "starting apps" it turned off again and the phone is now constantly rebooting. It doesn't seem to be bricked at all as it sometimes boots to the menu but when i start tapping on an app it shuts off and does the constantly rebooting issue again. It could be a hardware issue which means I'm gonna need to send my phone to the service center for a repair but one thing that makes me think there could be a way of fixing this without paying a technician is, when i boot to download mode, it doesn't do its constant reboot issue. I was even able to flash a firmware via Odin but when the phone started to boot after firmware installation, It did the spontaneously rebooting in the middle of the boot process again. If any of you guys have any idea on how to fix this or if there's even a way to, Please help me. Thanks! Cheers!

Try flashing the experimental firmware from the rooting guide, and if that doesn't work then it is most likely a hardware issue, and I have a strong suspicion that it is.
If you have an external SD card, remove it and see if problems persist. Honestly that sounds like a firmware scrambled.

Upon rebooting of my HD7, many times it will show the HTC logo, then go straight to a screen showing the device being plugged into a pc. It will continue to do this regardless of how many times I reboot. The only way out of it is to reboot into the bootloader by pressing power and volume down, and then rebooting from there. Ive tried to plug it into a pc and let the zune software reflash the whole thing, but it complains that there was a problem with the restore... and when I do get it to reboot, there are NO probelms at all! (Besides the memory problem with The Harvest crashing out to the tiles like everyone else it seems). Has anyone else had this problem? Weird thing is, the first phone the TMobile sales rep brought out did the same thing! I wonder if its some kind of problem with the actual bootloader?
Had the same issue.

I'm guessing there was a bad batch somewhere, a very limited batch as you're the only other person I've seen say this
FYI. I've had this happen too. I had to pull the battery to get it fixed.
Sent from my HD7 using Board Express
Same problem, if the phone dies and you turn it back on you get "connect your phone to computer" screen (and the phone loops turning off then back on to the same screen, and then repeats); and if you manually turn the phone on and then back on you get "connect your phone to computer" screen as well.
Battery pull is the only fix at this point. I haven't seen much of this problem either, if i find out its a hardware issue i'm getting mine swapped out ASAP.
I had similar issue just downgraded it to nodo using goldcard and the issue resolved.
Cheers.
I woke up this morning and my phone would not boot. it would get past the Orange boot screen, as i am locked to Orange, and then i t would get to the sgs boot screen and stay there for about 5 minutes, then finally turning itself off along with a few random vibrations. I kept trying to turn it on, i tried numerous ways such as taking the external sd and sim card out, taking the battery out for 2 hours but the same thing kept happening. My phone was not rooted and has never been hacked in anyway, i have had this phone not long. It was working fine the night before. I fixed this by going into recovery mode, as i could get into both recovery and download mode fine, and i restored to factory settings from that. Now it works fine. Anyone know what was up with it and how i can fix it without restoring if it happens again. I didn't look it up when it was happening as i didnt have access to the computer,
Thanks
What you describe sound like a bootloop, which could be caused by many things, if it recurs my suggestion is to take it back to orange and insist on replacement/fix. I was with orange but hacked my way out of their crap software ages ago!
Insanity cm 015/glitch
It began when I try to record HD video in performance mode. My phone getting hotter and suddenly restarted. I tried to turned it off to cooled it down and turn it back on. A similar issue occurred while I retry to record video and suddenly it is restarted. The odd thing is about to happen. It began to bootloop stuck in mi logo and restarted over and over again. It happened for several days. I tried to flash the rom using fastboot but none of it fixed the problem. Now the problem spreading where the phone couldn't turn on but the LED blinked red when I charged it. I need to charge it like more than 5 hours to make it on and still bootloop. Once I found it succeed reach the homescreen. Since I think the main problem is on the rom, so I tried to factory reset and guess what? It began to bootloop again. I'm so devastated and I'm very grateful if anyone has a suggestion to fix this. Thx in advance.
I'll try to make this short.....
I am using N910T3. Phone was charging in car while using (stop by roadside). Out of sudden it shutdown and went into reboot loop and the phone is extremely hot. I took the battery out for soft reset and try to turn on again. Phone will freeze at different screen (Lock Screen, Home Page, Samsung Logo, Powered by Android) and give two separate vibration before reboot.
I thought it is battery problem so I bought a new battery to try, but still the same problem. So I went on to backup all file before I perform hard reset. While doing that, I find out the phone can be use for longer before reboot if it was stay off for a long time. So I have this crazy idea: put it in a fridge. Surprisingly it works! The phone will not reboot anymore and I can manage to backup all file before doing anything else. Also, the phone will not charge if you plug in right after a few reboot.
Then, along with the fridge method, I perform factory reset through normal android setting. Now it will just stuck at powered by android screen while in reboot loop. I then try to flash with Odin, multiple times. Flash by Odin is complete, phone restart, then it freeze and reboot, at different screen (Installing system update, Erasing, powered by android).
Out of frustration I try with the fridge method to flash, and IT WORKS AGAIN!!!. The phone can now boot to welcome screen where you first setup your phone. However, it will then freeze again and reboot while doing so.
There was only this one time, where I left the phone off for a day after flash with a previous stock ROM, turn it on and skip as much setup as I can, finally reach the homepage screen, then will stay on without any reboot issue. I thought I finally fix it. I then power off the phone, put in my Sim Card and SD Card, power it on, then again, reboot issue appear.
I tried flash with latest stock ROM, previous stock ROM (one updates away), flash any stock ROM with pit file. I sometimes will get error code on device after flash (can't remember the exact error). I also cannot boot into recovery mode without flashing a twrp. Sometimes if success, I will get straight to Lock Screen without going through the phone welcome setup process. But again, none of these I tried can solve the reboot loop.
I may went too far and mix up all steps to the phone. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? Or is my phone, as I believe, has a faulty motherboard that cause the reboot loop? Thanks in advance for reading through my problem!
Hello there, I had a Tmo Note 4 which I loved it until the end, it's a hardware problem and there is no fix for it unless you replace the board, by the time you buy the board and what you need to pay for labor you're going to expend a few hundred dollars, I also tried the freezer method but it finally the phone gave up, it does not turn on anymore. That was my experience. Good luck bud.

Try a firmware flash before newsest. Then take the ota
anyone know if a 910t3 mother board will fit in a 910t frame? Asking cuz I wanna switch them out.
Hey guys,
I have a problem with this phone. I got my relative's note 8 for trying to fix ( i'm not android expert ).
As she says, for no reason phone freezed and shuted down. After that charging problem started, and battery doesn't show real percentage.
After that i got the phone, and tried to go factory reset in recovery menu. Now phone stucks at samsung logo. Sometimes it stucks at blue screen with "no command" text.
Phone doesn't works all the time also. For example, somehow phone charged %100, after that i tried to open it, it stucked at samsung logo. I tried hard reset, screen off and no more screen. After 4-5 hours it worked again, but stuck at samsung screen again.
I send phone to trusted local repair shop. They couldn't managed to fix also, they reported me that it should be motherboard issue and they can't do anything about it. I don't know did they tried to install stock rom again.
I see no reason for motherboard issue. No water, no big damage or something else happened to phone. There should be a way to fix this and i seek your support here.

I would go with what the repair shop said personally. They certainly know a lot more than I do. Unfortunately things do just break even with no error for the owner themselves.
It is definitely worth trying to flash stock rom with Odin though.
