[Q] Phone powers off and resets

Hello lads! The last few days I have been trying to fix a huge problem with my Galaxy S4 i9505. I had been using the Google 4.4 rom for almost a month without any problem. One day, when my phone was low on battery it shutted down and I plugged it in my charger to power it on again. When it turned on I was prompted to the screen you see when you use the 4.4 rom for the first time. I had all my apps but everything was resetted. Every setting, all the app data, messages, etc. I thought this was a one time thing so I used about an hour to get everything back to normal again. Then the next day, same happened again. Phone turned off because of low battery, and everything was reset. I tried to google it but with no luck, so I did a factory reset and flashed the newest Google rom (4.4.2) with a new kernel called Ktoonsez. Got everything back to normal again and used my phone for a couple of hours before it just suddenly shutted down once again, but this time with almost full battery. When i tried to turn it on I was stuck on the Google loading animation and had to reflash 4.4.2. It turned back on and this time I decided to let the phone stay stock to see if any of my problems was caused of my apps or settings. It lasted for 2-3 days before the same thing happened again... I tried to flash different modems, other roms and firmwares but nothing have helped so far. I am also prompted with a message each time I turn the phone on which tells me that com.android.phone has stopped working. I have tried several factory resets, wiped dalvik, wiped cache, but still has the same problem... I have now given up trying and wonder if anyone of you know what I can do to fix the problem? Any tip is much appreciated and I hope to hear from you! Thanks!
edit: figured out I posted this is the wrong forum as this is for s4 active and i have a i9505. Sorry! Anyway, please comment if you know how to fix it. Thanks!

[Q] Wifi stuck "Turning on"

Tried searching around and have seen others with this issue but nothing has worked. Tried a clean flash of a rom and during the setup wizard its still broken.
I have pretty much done everything but done a clean flash of stock and i am gearing up to do that but i dont have high hopes.

are you using a custom kernel?

Did you change your Android password within the past 72 hours?

Nope...
its not that i just cant connect, its like the hardware is broken.

and just did a complete factory image flash.
still broken

I had this happen to my N6 last week. It started after running the battery completely flat so the green LED lit when I charged it. The fix having repeatedly wiping seemed to be draining battery completely again until the green LED lit when I charged it. It has worked fine ever since.

First contacted square trade as that is my insurance, they said contact Moto because it is still under warranty. Did that, Moto said they would replace it. I said i don't want to go without a phone and they said they can charge me 25 and put a 500 hold on my account but they would send the phone first. Said OK phone arrives on Tuesday.
Just as an FYI they did basically say did you factory reset it.... but that is all the trouble shooting.
If anyone is interested in my symptom. Wifi is just always stuck at "turning on" every once in a while it will be off. but when you try to turn it on it just gets stuck again.
When it is stuck you can not turn it off.

Might be worth an RMA. see my previous post.

Don't know if I'm a little too late to this post... .But it happened to my Nexus 6 too, tried everything, wipe cache, factory reset, root, delete /persist/wifi but nothing worked....
However, luck seems to be on my side when I went into Google Connectivity Services under Setting--> Apps... and wipe its cache and tried to disable it (but stopped before I did). Then reboot the phone once i wiped all the data from the Google Connectivity Services Apps and VIOLA! It's working now!
*EDIT... It worked for about an hour (allowing me to dl all the apps) but now it has failed again....

I have the same issue as soon and I unlock the bootloader

any ideas? Im going to root again the device and load a different to see if it makes any difference

I am experiencing this as well. Was working fine yesterday and when I tried to go to Android M Preview 3 this happened. Whats worse is that this is happening right after I switched from Unlimited Data on TMo to Project Fi with 3GB. Making this even more frustrating is that Project Fi support says the preview images are now compatible with Project Fi. Isn't that something they should be telling people up front?!

I'm having the same issue on marshmalow, it suddenly started to happen some weeks ago.
First times was solved with phone reboot.
Then was required to clean cache before restart
Now I've tried reclutance suggestion (delete data from google connectivity services and reboot but the problem persist?
I'm using 6.0.1 stock rom without root
I don't want to perform a factory reset
Any suggestion?

here too...close the wifi

All tried doesn't work,
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache (via fastboot as I do not have a custom recovery neither unlocked the boot or root, my phone is completely original)
Also tried to delete wifi data
Any suggestion?

RMA

I'm continuing to have issues with my Motorola Nexus 6 phone.
It is running stock android 6.0.1
I never unlocked it or rooted (Sadly cause If i do so I were able to backup my apps and settings with titanium backup and restore it before a full device reset )
The problem started some weeks ago.
First symptom was that i was unable to enter on Settings -> Data usage (Every time receives an "unfortunately, settings has stopped" message)
Then some days have difficult to connect to wifi or disconnect (at that moment I didn't investigate the issue, just retry considering the issue was on router side)
After some time I realize that the problem was on the phone, specially cause it started to stuck turning on wifi, but for some days just turning off phone and turning it on again solves the issue.
With the time it becomes more and more frequent and turning it off and on didn't solve anything so I've reboot into recovery mode and perform a clear cache but it doesn't solve the issue.
Looking here and at other forums found that this issue is really common and some people solves it trough ADB with "adb shell pm clear com.android.settings" I've tried it but it didn't solve anything.
Even when many people didn't solve it with a factory reset I want to try it, but I need to be able to backup one app data (If could backup everything will be the best but at least need to backup blockchain app (Also have an issue with them as provider and couldn't log in from another device or website, just this device has a session already approved and open)
Any suggestion?

I've upgraded/downloaded to almost any possible rom and the problem is still here
Looking on forums found that is a very common issue since marshmallow in many devices (Specially Nexus)
Most people couldn't fix it but some could.
the problem is with devices macaddress that shown 02:00:00:00:00:00 and get stuck turning on
there are solutions in forums that seems to be a little bizarre like drain battery to 0 and full recharge (This one works for me once)
,others like deleting Google connectivity services cache, or deleting /persist/wifi folder completely
But I found one for nexus 5 who replaces the full /persist partition with a dump and edit the files and permissions with macaddress information.
This seems to have logic and provides an explanation about why the problem persist after, factory reset or rom changing so I want to try it in nexus 6.
Could someone provide me a dump of it?
There is an app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...nam.partitions, that makes the process of making a partition backup easy. The persist partition is on /dev/block/mmcblk0p26
Thanks in advance

Did you solve your problem? Because I have the same. Did you try to change Mac address on device?

Need urgent Help

Hello
I was normally using my S6 active and suddenly it crashed.
and restarted...now it doesnt go forward after the samsung S6 active logo...
I tried to restart it several times but no use.
I dont use any custom roms or anything else..not even tried to upgrade the software...
Kindly help me what should I do...

Had a very similar thing happen to me. S6 active crashed while on the charger and went into a bootloop. Ended up doing a warranty replacement.

Had mine in ultra power save mode on the charger overnight. Next morning when I went to unlock the phone, I fumbled a few of the buttons on the side at the same time and the phone froze up completely. When I forced a reset, the phone was stuck in a bootloop.
Restarting in recovery mode and wiping cache didn't help. Only option was a factory reset.

WiFi won't turn on any fixes?

Suddenly the WiFi on my daughter's s8 won't turn on. I go to turn it on, wheel spins for a few seconds and then turns back off. Just started yesterday was working fine prior.
I've reset all network connections
Factory reset phone
Nothing seems to let me re-enable WiFi at all doesn't make a lick of sense. Anyone have any suggestions to try before I have to go buy a new replacement ugh.
Phone is TMobile s8 on the latest software G950U with Android 9 April Patch

When you did the factory reset, did you also reinstall any apps or settings? If so, reset again, but don't restore anything. If you still can't turn on WiFi, I'd say the radio has failed. Time to give her yours and get an S10. [emoji1]

Guessing radio is failed, because before it even hits restore point when first boot after factory reset and it asks if you want to configure WiFi it exhibits the same behavior Ugh this sucks

No reason not to take it to a T-Mobile shop and see if they can do anything with it. I just wouldn't get my hopes up.

Stuck at no command error and freezing

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.
