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.

Hi Folks,
I have got a Nokia 7 plus and since the day I have bought it, I am facing a strange problem.
Every now and them the screen freezes and only way to make it work again is locking and unlocking the phone.
I can say the screen do not respond to touch because the buttons are working properly in this case.
Tried resetting the phone, installing Android P, Rolling back to O, but nothing works. the problem still persists.
Curious to know if anyone else is facing such problem or if anyone has got any solution to fix this issue?
It a hardware problem i believe. Coz even i had the same issue. I immediately sent it to service center which was luckily nearby my home. They took a video of that issue and sent it to Nokia for replacement. They approved my replacement and gave me a approval letter and requested me to visit the shop where i had purchased the phone. The shopkeeper took my old phone back along with all the accessories and approval letter and within 5 mins they gave me a new unit.(note: the service center person told me that if you have purchased the phone from a store then you have 14 days replacement guarantee in case if any issues persist post format or tests).
I have the same issue, tried all methods you mention to make it work normally without succes. I dont know if it is a touch hadware problem because it happens very ramdomly and works instantally and normally again if I lock and unlock the screen
Some days not happens, another days happens very frequent.
Another fact, every time I installs some Factory image (Android P developer preview, Android 8.1), the touch not give problem at all for aprox 2 days or more.
I'm very frustrated with this issue.

This is the Nokia 7+ quality problem, go to the after-sales service to replace the screen for free.
So i got my device replaced and for sometime, it did not give the problem but after 3 weeks, i started experiencing the same problem. New device also becomes unresponsive at times and then i have to switch off/on again to use it. I updated OS to Android P DP3 last week but issue still persists.

I think we can clearly consider this as a hardware problem in that case.
i have same problem with my Nokia 7+, I gave a chance to nokia but I'm already starting to change my mind, the bootloader can not be officially unlocked and now the problem with the touchscreen, a bit disappointed, I hope hmd solve these issues and if not, buh bye nokia.

Sadly, this is not the case here. I did a clean install of the latest developer preview, and I still experience an unresponsive system. Right after lock/unlock it works again.

It happens to me sometimes while uninstalling an app. Device freezes and doesn't respond. After like 10-15 seconds, it uninstalls the app and start responding.

I have similar problem.
When I want to clear data for the chrome through the settings, device goes mad, most of the time freeze and its difficult to restart it.
I thought they fixed with august security patch, but no.

Yes, it happens to me as well. Let say Chrome has 200mb cache and if I click on Clear Cache, device freezes.
I used to face this problem quite frequently, but I haven't seen it in quite a while. For this reason, I'm pretty sure it was a software related issue and not a hardware one, as a hardware problem would be unlikely to go away, but a software one could be fixed with updates.
It started to happen on ly device today. I have the august security patch and my model is ta 1055 so i don't think the problem is solved yet
Cleared chrome cache. Device freeze for 15 minutes and rebooted. On Pie dev 4
There are so many seemingly random issues with this phone, I can safely say that I hate it. I never know if it's going to take a call (unresponsive soft button), or if the person on the other end will be able to hear me (mic just randomly stops working at least once a week). Freezes a few times every day. Won't allow push email notifications after (or during) sleep, have to reboot. The list goes on......
Going to turn in my device for repairs. It's taken Nokia long enough to come up with a software solution. On the Nokia forums there are several people who were helped with a touch panel repair.

Already sent back the device for repairs twice, each time they sent it back with just a reinstall of an older Android version... claiming it would be fixed.
In Europe, there's no Nokia repair, so another party is taking care of the repairs. It seems like they are not really aware of the ongoing bugs/problems of the device, which makes it extremely difficult to get them to actually repair the device properly.
First time they even told me they "replaced defective hardware", when in fact the hardware was not touched at all.
I managed to record the issue with another device, and showed it to the vendor.
Now they're offering me a refund. It looks like this is the best option I can get from them.
Really sad though. I was hoping for them to just fix it. Apart from this problem, it is a really good device. There's not really a good alternative in the same price range.

Im having trouble unlocking my device, I tried the finger touch to unlock but it did not unlock and the phone is unresponsive even on pressing the power button. I tried to force restart by pressing and holding the powerup button and power nutton simultaneously but still no result. Also I could see a red led light at the lefthand side of speaker on top.
Note: The device was fully charged.
can someone help me with this Issue please
I'm having random restarts with the s21 ultra, seems the phone is having an error in the background and restarts to avoid freezing or something.
I checked all the auto-restart options are off. The restarts really happen randomly, sometimes im watching a youtube video, sometimes chatting on whatsapp, and it happens almost once/twice a week.
But what i noticed lately, mostly its when an app is using the camera. Sometimes i try to launch the stock camera app and it doesn't launch (writes a quick note that its unable or something) and the phone reboots.
Any solution of what to do? I keep entering the members app after the phone restarted and send the crash log to Samsung but until now I have the same problem and no fix.
Its really unacceptable, i have paid alot for this phone, i got the 512GB with 16GB ram and in the end the phone crashes when opening the stock camera app. Really will never buy Samsung ever again
First, you need to track down the source of the problem.
I wouldn't even let WhatsApp run on my phone... it's nothing but trouble.
Try clearing the system cache.
Clear cam data.
Because it's rebooting you can't see what was running/cache last.
This is abnormal behavior and may indicate malware.
Look at 3rd party apps you have installed for starters.

Where can he go to see what apps caused the crash -- isn't there something in the Android system that allows him to see that?

If it hadn't rebooted it would show as a running or cache app in Device Care or Developer options.
After reboot that's all cleared pretty sure the cache is too but you can double check.

I would try to get the device replaced by Samsung as soon as possible if I had the option rather than trying to troubleshoot it. This is abnormal behaviour, maybe software, maybe hardware but if I can get the device replaced, I'd choose that as the first option.
I had a similar issue with my brand new HTC Desire S (ages ago) and foolishly tried to solve the problem by trying software hacks, almost tripped the security flag and missed the DOA claim window trying to sort it out myself. Fortunately came to my senses and took it to the service centre and got a replacement on the same day.
If that's not an option for you, then we can all huddle together here and try to figure this out.
And by the way, don't hate on Samsung because your device isn't performing well. Sometimes this happens with complex electronic devices. That's what the warranty is for. If they don't honour the warranty, then we can all swear at them with abandon. Calm down and contact the service centre.
Be mad at Samsung for many things. Not this. Their QA isn't that bad and also head-to-head with Apple's, statistically speaking. Wait till you see what Pixels have been doing, LOL.

It may be hardware or firmware. Or completely self inflicted.
If you can return it, I would do so.
When buying an Android always go for one with an SD card slot; use it as the data drive and the OS/apps go on the internal memory. Makes life and reloads much easier... and faster.
I always build my computers with data drives, even did it with my laptop. Among other things it helps to protect your data. In almost all OS crash and burns, the data drives remain intact. Nonetheless you back up the data drives to at least 2 hdds that are physically and electronically isolated from each other.

I am not really sure what their warranty policy in KSA is. Will go to them in person and check what they will offer after making a backup of my data. But I expect they do not allow to get replacement (i have the device since about 4 months now) but this problem was not happening the first 2-3 months. But i haven't installed a single new application (so we cant say it may be a new 3rd party app)

I do not have many 3rd party apps for starters (less than 20) and i have the same exact apps on my other honor 10 phone which dont have this problem at all, so i believe its not from a 3rd party app.
Clearing cache and cam data are the first things ive done, and the same issue reoccurs.
Im posting this not for *****in but for users to give me ideas of what to do since im frustrated and i have done all the 'quick fixes' i could think of with no success.
If there is a way i can view the crash log, then that might be helpful...

Only way to be certain is to ask them I guess.
Do you get the standard 1 year warranty in KSA? Or is it different?
I don't think there is any harm in asking. if they can diagnose the issue, they may be able to repair it at least, if not give you a replacement.

We get 24 months warranty by samsung here, but I am not sure if they allow replacements in their warranty. I've had previous bad experience where they kept trying to 'repair' the device and same problem came again (long time ago- over 5 years so maybe things have changed).

Wow! That's double the warranty coverage offered to us here in India.
If you think it's a software issue, and don't think Samsung will be of much help, then start with a factory reset. If that doesnt solve it, clean flash fresh firmware. If still no joy, then mostly it's going to be a hardware issue. Whatever you do, don't root or trip the e-fuse in any way if you want to have any hopes of claiming warranty in the future.
Hey
I also had this problem.. My phone would keep restarting while watching any type of video and/or using any app that used the camera. The phone screen would almost become "glitchy" with green lines and restart.
I even had an official Samsung partner come repair my phone at my home. He replaced the motherboard and the battery, but sadly this didn't fix the problem.
Lucky I was still within my 14 days with my phone network to get it replaced.

t's all because the device used is problematic or the application has an error?
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.
Got up this morning to a black screen. At first power + down volume would show the Samsung boot screen, but it would never fully boot. One time it did make it to the the home screen but froze almost immediately. After that it has only showed the Samsung boot screen a few times while holding down power + down volume. I have tried tried power + down volume or up volume several times now and can never get it to show anything any more. The phone should also have power as it has been charging all day. After doing some reading I was going to flash it with Odin, but it only shows up as QUSB_BULK_CID... and Odin doesn't see it. This is after installing Samsung USB drivers v1.7.59. Is there anything else I can do?
hello colleague
Reading this post makes me think about making periodic backups.
since I also have an S20 FE 5g TMO.
I hope I have a solution to the problem.
but apparently I think it will be hardware problems.
I have investigated and there is also a publication of an s20 with the same problem.
greetings
Can you point me to the S20 with the same problem? I really hope it isn't a design issue with the hardware as I have 3 other S20FE's. All bought at the same time. The phones are only a few months past 1yr old. Would be nice if it is a software issue. Since I couldn't figure anything out with it, I dropped it off at a replace called ubreakifix by asurion. They were listed as a repair center on Samsung's website.
I got the phone back today. At first the shop said they couldn't reproduce the problem after I left it there. It was just slow to start up. Gave it back and didn't charge me anything. After I left I just started open and closing stuff. And the UI would freeze some, plus I would get System UI not responding and Process system isn't responding errors. I took it right back with the error. They were able to scan it again. This time there Samsung software said it had corrupt memory. They said the board would need to be replaced and that would cost what a new phone would cost. So, I just ordered a refurb S20FE from Back Market. I am still going to try and wipe and flash it. But, I don't know if I trust it now.
Just looked in the software update menu and noticed it updated the system on 2/7 at 12:10pm. The phone had the black screen on the morning uf 2/8. The alarm didn't go off at 6:00AM. So, it started acting up less than a day after the update. Coincidence?
So I recently updated to MIUI 14 and after using my 55w charger and playing some games, my device won't open anymore and it's just black screen, won't even charge (or what they called Dead Boot)
Then I have it fixed with a local tech, got to use it for 3-5 days tops, then it happened again. Tech says it was due to overheat. Now I am just so afraid to use MIUI 14 and wanted to know what's the best kernel and custom rom you can suggest? Also what are your suggestion to stop my phone from being "deadboot"? Thanks!
Mi 11 users have been experiencing the frustrating issue of their device getting stuck in a dead boot loop. This problem can occur due to various reasons, including an incompatible firmware update or faulty hardware. However, there are a few steps that you can take to try and fix this issue.
Firstly, try restarting your Mi 11 in safe mode by holding down the power button until the screen turns off and then pressing and holding the volume up key until your device starts in safe mode. If this doesn't work, you may need to reset your phone's settings completely or even perform a factory reset.
It's important to note that attempting these solutions may lead to data loss, so it's recommended that you back up all important files before proceeding with any troubleshooting steps.
If none of these methods work for fixing your Mi 11 dead boot issue, it's best to seek assistance from a professional repair service or contact Xiaomi customer support for further guidance.
Despite being frustrating at times, technical issues like this remind us of how much we rely on our smartphones every day. It also highlights the importance of taking care of our devices and keeping them updated regularly.

Thank you! Yeah it kinda sucks how faulty MIUI can be. I'm just so scared to use my phone now unless I found the best custom rom to use it daily again, and tweak it to stop from overheating (couldn't even use my 55w charger now).
I tried different methods before sending it to our local tech. Even draining it for a couple of days didn't work. I've been to more than 10 different tech but only 3 had tried to fixed it. Other says the cpu already needs replacements and such - but everything now looks great and I am happy some of my local techs are great on fixing this issue.
Just hopefully I can found other recommendations to stop this traumatic event from happening again.

Hey, there ain't really a "best" custom ROM tho, but they're all better than MIUI no matter what one you choose.
Just try out a bunch of them and see what's the best fit for you!
Hoping your phone doesn't break again
Ive had a problem after miui update too. Not as bad as yours but my speakers have stopped working rendering it unusable as I take a lot of calls. Only fix is using Bluetooth but I want it resolved so back to my Poco x3 pro. I'm currently in the process of unlocking the bootloader, just need to wait 6 more days.
A shame that warranty only ran out just over a week ago
I have installed custom ROMs before but our of desperation I asked if I could flash a stock rom with fastboot on a locked rom, but no reply and upon further research it just seems too risky. Rather wait the 7 days to unlock it.
