IDOL 4S rebooting loop issue

Hi,
This morning my idol 4s 6070O -up to date MM from alcatel- suddenly rebooted and since then its keeping on rebooting showing the alcatel logo then idol 4s logo and sometimes the blue alcatel animation and sometimes not.
i went to master / Hard reset from recovery menu by pressing power key along with the volume up key and then wiped both cache partition and wiped data / format system
Also, tried the SUGAR QCT tool But after more than once, all in vain
still looping and never startup the launcher.
​
The rebooting does only happen when trying to start the launcher but never during using recovery menu. So, this is probably is NOT a battery problem but instead it is a software issues.
Would you recommend any sequence to fix my firmware to help?
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Kindly advise
Thank you

Seems a problem with the motherboard so you get a new device, at least i did so

Alcatel idole 4s android model bricked
My friend from Portugal gave me one Alcatel idol4s, now it stuck on android logo. It can only enter into download mode. Is there any Qfil rom for this one? to use qpst or xiaomi flash tool need qfil rom... please help

I realize this is a bit old of a thread but I found a youtube video with a guy that had the exact same problem. He shipped it back to Alcatel's reparation service since it was still within the warranty and they said it was a motherboard issue. If it is the same thing it'll be very difficult to fix yourself so it would be best to see if your phone is still within the one year warranty period.

Boot loop of evil!
I Have the exact same problem, and came here to see if someone had it fixed.
Can anyone help us fix this brick of metal and glass?

I fix it! This is so easy to repair. This morning I had same Bootloop issue with my Idol 4S its keeping on rebooting showing the alcatel logo only. To repair this issue we must get straight to the Recovery and select Wipe Cache option then reboot the phone.
To open Recovery you must feel the moment when the phone restarting by Power On/Offbutton and not automatically (Note: by pressing this combo your phone sometimes load the logo one second later...) When you feel the moment then fast release both buttons (Power & Volume Up) and if you're done it right you will see Recovery Menu.
That's it.

I've found in my line of work that the battery can cause this issue. I've fixed two Idol 4S' by changing the battery. The battery voltage should be 3.7/3.8v, whereas I've recorded 4.2v on an idle battery not being charged.

Same issues
Do you think it's worth it if the battery is not the problem, then you've spent 65 bucks or more, for new battery in a broken phone.

Xiaomi A2 dead as a brick

hello all,
I have a Xiaomi MI A2, just a year old, and now dead as a brick. What happened over the past few days:
• After restarting the phone it got stuck in the white start up Android screen with Android's logo;
• Then I tried to load Fast Boot, in which it got stuck as well;
• Eventually it started up again, I tried to restart it and back to the issues of the first two bullet points;
• And after trying a few more times: dead as a brick. It doesn't start in any way, however long I press whatever combination of buttons;
• I don't see the battery symbol on-screen when I charge the battery, nor do I see the battery charging light on. I was advised to replace the battery, so I ordered a new one, and... nothing.
Googling around it seems to be a common issue, but no definite solution found.
Anyone any ideas?
thanks in advance!

Issues probably occurred with first november update . Well for me also this issue i removed sim and plug in charger and as u did, did power on/off finally when i saw battery screen it started. I managed 4 restarts then never turned off. Just today did the ota to 10.0.0.17 (problem rom is 10.0.0.15!) And no probs any more. If that does not work u need to flash to earlier rom or latest.flashing through fastboot could only be done but bringing the phone to edl mode. E.g opening up phone.. i never got that far since i managed to keep it alive but google it.
Good luck

Perfect glad i could help. You should check your rom version (see about screen) if u on 10.0.0.15 you should check ota. I installed the ota while charging. And now everything works as it should!

Well, I went through all the options, without result. Eventually brought it to a service center. Conclusion: CPU broken. How the *** has this been possible!?
thanks anyway.

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.

Thanks for your thoughts, honestly i don't expect it to work again, but before throw away i want to try all chances

Question Think I made a small issue to something huge

So The redmi note 10 pro atleast in India( redmi support has admitted to it) had this front camera issue where after the MIUI 13.0.5 update cameras had stopped working, also my Snapchat and instgram camera parts totally died. This was annoying but I was just going with it because I don't have the time to go to the repair shop for the "free fix".
Now yesterday I was just doing my thing using my phone browsing something when the app I was using ( think it was Gmail) crashed so i restarted the app and then it kept being extremely slow and finally the phone just died like froze and that system UI crashed thing was being shown but I couldnt do anyhting on the screen so I just held my power button expecting it to restart.
Now the issue began, the phone refused to boot up, after the original MI logo and a run of the theme's boot up animation it would freeze and the whole thing would happen again. It kept happening for a long time so then I went into safe mode, dad deleted all apps he thought are unsafe (they aren't mostly) and then rebooted but it wouldn't start so he said factory reset it. I went ahead and took whatever back up I could on safe mode and did that but now the phone would just boot into "system UI crashed" and be unresponsive.
I'm not sure at this point if I could boot in safe mode but i had given up and it was on another bootloop when I just removed the sim to out it into this trash phone and I did but after like 5 minutes I have no clue how it just booted into setup like a first day phone. Went ahead and set it up even rebooted to see if it's flawless and it was fine. Guess what even after all that the camera issues were still there. Today morning the phone was acting a little up but I didn't give it much thought. School got over boot it up and it wouldn't boot up again, went into safe mode and rebooted somehow that worked, reached home and voila using an app and this time it decides to reboot on its own and again back to zero.
I was so fed up and this is where first paragraph comes in I assumed this is all because this 13.0.5 is absolutely garbage for my phone and I should go back to another version of MIUI so I started watching videos on that.
Downloaded mi unlocked tool, pretty sure i did the OEM unlocking thing and mi account thing( i did all this in safemode because normal wouldn't boot) and went into fastboot but it wouldn't show up in the unlocker app. Thought I did something wrong tried again and failed again. But now it decided to not even open in safemode and then I gave up. My dad did something and wiped data and when it boots up now it just says device is locked in an unresponsive state where I can't type in the pass word (obviously because system UI has crashed) and it won't stop booting into this same screen. I can't enter safemode now but I'm not sure about fastboot. Please help I'm new here and I'm sorry for the extremely long post. If there are other places I can post and get help please tell.

To me my friend you sound like youre in a spot, I think personally, youre best solution is a service centre repair, warranty or not, sounds like you have some major issues there that are beyond simply flashing, and the more you mess the worse it gets. If it is a new phone i would be returning it for repair or replacement, if Xiaomi have admitted to camera problems then they should be liable for repairing the phones that suffer with this problem, you need to contact them to find out what you are entitled to.

Question mi 11 ultra keeps freezing

hi,so i got my phone with china rom which the seller bootunlocked it and changed it to the offical global rom like 6 months ago and from 3 4 weeks agao im facing a really bad problem,before that i got the problem that i tapped one time and the device would think i've tapped 2 times and it closed the app,i thought it's because of the screen protectors.but from 3 weeks ago i'm facing these real problems:
1-phone suddenly freezes for 3 or 4 seconds then it's responsive for like a second and again till i close all apps and then it gets a little better but after i restart which sometimes leads to a boot loop, it doesn't get smooth and normal, even after that,after some time like 30 40 minutes it freezes again. even the keyboard freezes.
2-if the freezing continues i get a "---- app is not responding wait close",sometimes the miui system shows the same error but if i click on the wait it wont crash or such, it justs behaves like it was before showing the error.
3-sometimes after the restart the battery percentage is shown 0, which i'm pretty sure it isn't. upon restarting again the problem solves.
4-sometimes in specific applications my tap is considered a holding and shows me the holding menu.
5-sometimes i get glitches and lines in some parts of google chrome webs which fades by just scrolling,specially if a video is playing on the web page.
the phone didn't got any physical damage in the past.
i've tried these but no avail:
1-updating the miui
2-disabling virtual extension memory
3-factory reset
4-flash and install the offical rom which somehow lead to a bootloop.
5-flash and install the xiaomi eu stable rom which didn't go on a boot loop but the freezing continued
6-flashing and installing the official rom which this time didn't got stuck in a boot loop but right after booting showed me the "miui is not responding" but i setuped the phone and it sill got the freezing problem.
i used multiple benchmarks and even filled my ram with some app to see if it's the stress leading to a freezing but all the scores were perfectly normal even for storage and ram and the phone wasn't freezing during the tests and benchmarks
sorry that the text got too long but i'm really desperate.

Try in safe mode to rule out a buggy 3rd party app. Run for a day or more.
If it fails that it may be a buggy system app.
Otherwise it may be a hardware issue.

Sounds like the firmware is corrupted. This normally shouldn't happen.
Possible rootkit, a hardware failure or perhaps a single event upset hit the kernel or bootloader.
A complete reflash (impossible with a locked bootloader!) will purge any malware, remedy a SEU but not resolve a hardware failure.
Make sure all critical data is redundantly backed up now. It may crash and burn at any time running like that. Not good.
Return for warranty repair if possible.
That's my take on it, someone more familiar with that platform may have a better plan.

For the latter a different rom may work if it bypasses the damage.

See my previous edited post. The issue may be the bootloader has been corrupted and/or a hardware failure. You're in way deeper than I ever had to go with the firmware on an Android.

Not if it's locked. Someone may know how to unlock it here, I do not. That may not be the issue though or the root cause... You're welcome but I'm afraid I wasn't much help.
Try some Google searches for that manufacturer and devices with the same issue. Add xda to the searches to search XDA, that works better than the XDA search engine.
