Hi
My Galaxy Note 9 (N906F/DS, CSC Code: INS, 512 GB variant) started restarting on its on. It was restarting continuously, not even giving me time to unlock the phone.
I tried factory reset from recovery mode. Didn't work.
Finally I decided to flash the stock rom. Now the restart problem is resolved but I am getting encryption failed message when device boots up. Also in recovery it says "Not enough storage resource" and asking me to perform "Lacking Storage Booting" (This is coming up only sometimes in recovery), but I don't have that option in my recovery.
I think I have corrupted my internal storage.
Please help.

Hello,
I am(was) running MIUI version 2.1.13.
Recently my phone kept freezing, leaving a black screen with nothing but the backlight on.
I tried re-flashing the phone to a previous version of MIUI and after that all of my problems really began...
first of all after reflashing I can't write anything to the SD card... I mean I can but after I reboot the phone the file is gone(and if I format the card or erase a file they are back after the reboot)...
even if I manage to get MIUI or CM7 running after each reboot of the phone my login to my google account & market are lost... so basically every time I load up the phone it is as if I just flashed it. also I keep getting all sorts of services crashing notices.
when I try reflashing any other ROM I get the following error:
Can't access to '/system/csc/xee/system/'.
and the phone stays stuck on the Samsung LOGO or enters a boot loop.
I tried STOCK, Darky, Operators rom & PilotX...
Can some one please help me?
Reflashing a stock rom with odin or heimdall should always work...if not, maybe your sdcard is broken?
Hi ! So a few weeks after succesfully unlocking/rooting/ROMing my phone, yesterday morning at exactly 830am, everything stalled. I had to force shutdown the device, and when I did, it encountered a bootloop. I could get into recovery mode, but TWRP would freeze on logo, and CWM would freeze on formatting /data. I had later realised that this was because neither of the recovery options could mount /Data or my SD card. I removed my SD card to check it's status on my computer, but now my computer can't detect it. Fast forward I put the SD card back into my phone and reboot, and now somehow I can't even get into recovery. TWRP keeps flashing the logo, and CWM brings me to an android logo that keeps reflashing as well. I'm not sure what type of situation I got myself into or how to get out of this, but if simple instructions are possible to be provided I doubt i'd have difficulties fixing the problem.
Hi,
I've got XT1068, updated to 6.0 Marshmallow. In the past, I got it FDE (full disk encrypted).
Few days ago I unlocked my bootloader to gain root access on my phone using http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/simplified-modifying-boot-img-t3317605
everything went as expected, but by unlocking it wiped all userdata, so I wanted to re-encrypt the phone (and the external SD especially). But now, encryption fails, telling me "encryption fails, you have to reset your phone" each time I start the encryption, ending in a userdata-wipe.
So I thought about going back to stock fw.
After locking the bootloader and applying stock 6.0 FW, I tried again to encrypt the phone, but I am still unable to do so.
Can someone help me giving some suggestions, how I can fix that behavior and (mainly) how to get some errors/debug shown?
When selecting "encrypt now", the green android symbol with black background is shown for 5seconds, then the phone reboots, shows the bootscreen with the M, then it restarts again (after ~30minute) and shows after another 20seconds the message that something went wrong encrypting.
Ok it seems that I found out the problem in my case by myself.
Instead of using mfastboot.exe -w to delete the data and cache partition, I used recovery mode to delete userdata. I did it twice, since the first run, returns some errors.
After reset, I started the phone and got the fresh-install screen. I skipped mobile and wifi networking and did not entered google account details. Then I restarted the phone and waited for ~5minutes and tried to encrypt - everything works. Everytime I started encryption without waiting for some time it failed.
I hope I can save someone else some time, since factory reset takes ~15minutes each time you do it.
Hi there,
I have a Moto G 2 (2014) that I use as a secondary phone and yesterday my phones started to act weird so I decided to reboot it, upon rebooting phone is completely unusable. There is no way to browse through apps or do anything at all as every single app crashes almost immediately. Even the system apps crash constantly.
I thought that factory reset will solve the issue but I can't access it through phone so I tried to use recovery option to reset it to the factory settings without any luck. Bootloader is unlocked with status 3, but there is no way to flash anything, custom rom or recovery. I have followed the steps to flash the recovery from HERE without any luck. Booting the recovery through fastboot gets me through to TWRP or CWM but I can't perform any operation as any wipe command results in error 5.
Erasing through fastboot doesn't do anything either, although shows that operation has succeed when I boot I am greeted with same state I left the phone in, with exact apps I left open etc.
I have even unplugged the battery and left it for few hours to drain the energy from the board without any luck!
Now I was wondering whether it is some sort of memory issue? I never had any issues with the phone it was working well until one day it just sort of died.
Short version
Phone boots - Every app crashes (even system apps)
Unlocked Bootloader
No way to flash or wipe anything
Can boot to custom recovery through fastboot but that's about it (can't perform any operation, constant Error 5)
When wiping through fastboot device still has the old data even the apps that I had open when it crashed.
Sounds like data/internal storage partition is corrupted. Can you access internal storage via mtp on PC?
Many phones were saved by flashing stock ROM, especially partition table/gpt.bin.
Try flashing whole stock ROM, step by step. You can find files and Howto here on xda.
This will reset your phone! Good luck!
Dear All Respected Professionals,
My Samsung Note 8 SM-N950F Android 8.0 stopped booting all of a sudden. No software update, no modification, nothing. It was working perfectly, I restarted phone and it won't start again.
When I try to boot it stays stuck at boot logo (SAMSUNG logo) for around 5 minutes and then automatically restarts. It gets quite hot.
I can access via ADB while it stays in bootloop. I exported logcat. I'll upload if it may help.
I have around 2.2 GB free out of 64 GB internal storage.
Never rooted.
However, it seems like Internal Storage doesn't get mounted. I can’t access /sdcard or /storage/emulated/0
As much as I remember, I had "Allow OEM Unlock" enabled. I tried to flash TWRP via Odin in Download mode, but it fails.
I'm looking to
1. Revert phone to working state without formatting
2. If 1 is not possible, I want to at least make complete backup, something like nandroid to backup WhatsApp data and other stuff.
Note: I want to recover data from my phone. It has lots of important data. I don't want to simply format it.
Device: Samsung Note 8 SM-N950F
ROM: Stock Android 8.0
Never rooted
I can boot into Recover and Download mode.
This is my first post here. If any more details are needed please ask and I'll provide.
Kind people here please help me fix my only daily driver???

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Trying following below steps..
1. First try to force restart device by pressing Volume down + Power key for 7 to 10 sec. It will fix system crash issues
2. Go to recovery mode and try to wife cache partition, ONLY WIPE CACHE PARTITION. DO NOT WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET.
3. Try to boot device in safe mode, Press and hold volume down + power button, When you see Samsung then release Power button but keep holding volume down button until home screen.
Let me know results...
im having similar problems,
any results?
