Help!!
I don't know if this was asked before.
Random apps like Quickpik, Google Search, Dolphin browser or even XDA forum app causes my phone to freeze. It could be any app or activity on my phone. The screen gets stuck on whatever it is at that moment and doesn't respond to anything.
I'm forced to hold down the power button for like 5-6 seconds so that the Samsung logo appears and the phone reboots.
But, while rebooting it gets stuck on the boot screen animation of PA forever (isn't that called boot loop?) I'm forced to hold down the power button again for about 5-6 seconds so that it reboots again. Sometimes boot loop happens again or if not, it goes to lock screen.
My phone froze when I was trying to access the XDA forum app to post this issue..
I'm running Paranoid Android 3.15 March 28th build and stock kernel. Thanks in advance for any help...

I did. I re-installed the ROM after a full factory wipe, cache and dalvik cache wipe. Still the issue remains.
Either ask in your roms thread or wipe phone install stock rom and test .

I was running Paranoid Android ROM 3.15 with Siyah Kernel 1.9.1 when the SDS issue started happening. I asked for help in the Q&A section of PA, but I didn't get any reply.
I tried Jelly beer ROM thinking that would solve the freezing issue. But in vain.
The post above me asks me to flash stock ROM. Does that mean I will loose root?
My baseband version is I9300DDDLJ1. Is this the firmware they are talking about?
If I flash the stock ROM, I'll be going into Android 4.2.1. Why should I be doing that when I'm having Android 4.2.2 with PA?
I'm still a n00b and if anyone could walk me through the method of keeping PA 3.15 and not have any SDS issue, it would be considered so much helpful. Thanks A Million....

Hi
I searched and only found similar cases with other phones and no solution.
I was on stock 4.0.3 with CWM, rooted and siyah kernel and tried to upgrade to CM9
with Rom manager
i dled cm9 with gapps and let ROM Manager do the backup, wipe and reboot to recovery
but then i just saw the first GT 9100i boot screen with the triangle and after that
the screen stayed black.
i noticed in a darker area that the screen blinked everey few seconds, so i guess its trying to reboot all the time. some kind of bootloop?
i cant access the cwm, nor boot normaly.
just the download mode is working
so i tried to flash a stock FW from intratechs thread via odin
but... FAIL
help would be much appreciated right know :crying:
thank you
Mmm I've had issues with rom manager before but never this severe. All I can suggest is what I would do which is to fash stock firmware from samfirmware via PDA section in odin. If this doesn't work I think there is a sticky thread which is dedicated to situations like this. It requires flashing a firmware via odin again but all partitions are used so it will wipe your device. All the best.

Can you still get into Download Mode?
EDIT:
Try manually wiping data, cache and dalvik cache.
Try to go into recovery. Hold down volumen up, home key, and power on, at once hold them down ontil you reach recovery.

I had that problem too-a black screen with a flash down the rh side of the screen every few seconds.
I managed a repair via odin after a couple of attempts.

Flash a stock kernel then wipe everything the recovery it comes with. Also make your flashing roms for your 9100i model.

I have the very same problem as you.
I can enter download mode but can't enter recovery mode.
I can flash any rom I can find but all of them have no use.
Still can't boot nor recovery.
Have you fixed the problem just by reflashing stock rom?

Yes, that's our fault that haven't read enough before installing a software.
But is there any way to revive our phone?

the only way to revive ur phone, is to flash a stock ICS 4.0.3 firmware thro 'ODIN' and have a clean boot of ur phone
and never use 'Rom Manager' in the future
I brought my galaxy note from ebay. came woith ginger bread and older cwm. Flashed it latest CWM with Black star first. It was heavily unstable the screen would take 5 minutes to even startup an app. tird Liquid rom, same results. The jedi rom same results. Tried cm-10 got the dreaded status 7 error. Flashed TWRP with same results. Can someone tell me what am I doing wrong
1 wipe dalvik, cache, system
2. flashed rom
wipe dalvik, fix permissions
with no avail. Can someone please help
Try flashing back to stock ICS with Odin. Then root and do all necessary steps. After you do all that DL the ROM you want and wipe data, cache, wipe system and dalvick cache. Now flash the ROM. Reboot phone, let it sit for at least 10 minutes. Try that and see if it helps.

Just finished trying that. flashed the stock back in but now the stock has also gone unstable. even small things like accessing the settings menu causes a reboot. Almost turning into a nightmare. Thanks for your help
Are you using correct technique? A factory reset the wiping all caches? What baseband is in the About Phone?
The fastest way to recover is to use Kies firmware and initialization to clean it up.
I read through many threads and followed the technique described there in but seems like when I flashed the black star rom something messed up. I am unsure what. Is there any way to get the phone to the default state? Thanks in advance for all your help with this nightmare

Yes, that is a t-mobile modem. If you are at&t you want the LF6 modem.
Kies emergency firmware recovery will restock your phone.
Thanks to all for your help.
Whoa.....finally nightmare ended. I used the instructions in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1731654worked like a charm and got back my phone.
Even though I have the ATT baseband LF6 Tmo calling sill works fine
Mods: please close this thread
I had the same problem but the AT&T guy had me call the AT&T support line and they sent a replacement without even asking me to do troubleshooting.
this is he second tmie this thing is happening to me the only way to fix it is to factory reset it through CWM this issue is really making me angry because i just bought the phone2 days ago this issue is cause by an app freezing like i was on auto rap and it froze then when i reboot it works fine after 5 seconds of booting it freezes and reboots ...

Go back to stock, see if it still happens while you are there. If so, return it and ask for a new one. If it doesn't, flash CM again and read the CM thread; you just might find a fix for that issue.

What ROM do you use?
Settings->about phone->build number should give you the ROM name and the firmware it's based on.

Just click restore. You don't have to delete anything first because it will be deleted/replaced by the restored rom

I'm assuming you have a P7510 as I have no idea what a P7010 is. However, that's probably unimportant.
If your tablet is that unstable, I'd install stock along with wiping data and cache. Don't reinstall any applications. If that doesn't make it stable, it would seem to be a broken device.

Sammobile.com has every stock rom you need, what you have to do is to flash the factory recovery e3 again and factory reset with the factory recovery, then flash cwm or twrp and your ROM again. Do not install any apps until your sure that it's fixed, if so, install the apps one by one and if something messes up, you know who the culprit is

Hello!
I've been on LiquidSmooth v2.37 for the last 3 months and with great pleasure. After flashing the ROM back in Nov 2013 I experienced few random phone hangs which I initially ignored => long press of power button and problem solved. These hangs became more frequent in Dec 2013 so I tried a cache wipe and also a factory reset with little success: the phone hangs frequency decreased but not disappeared. Presently I get this problem from 1 to 3-5 times per day, which starts to be annoying.
- Never modified the ROM. 100% LiquidSmooth official and original
- The phone does not completely freeze: screen and buttons become unresponsive however the status led still blinks. Moreover if I try to call the i9300 I can hear the call tones through the other phone, however no sound / vibration is produced by the i9300.
- Hangs happen mostly when I'm using apps but I could not find a pattern so they look random to me
Before i was on ParanoidAndroid and I have never experienced such issue.
Any suggestion? I don't wanna leave this ROM since it's really really good for me.
Thanks for your help!
Wipe and flash stock rom, if still freezing then you have bad memory blocks -read the freezing thread in general forum.

Is there another way to test memory health rather than flashing the stock firmware? Maybe a benchmark app or something?
Where can I find the latest stock firmware and the guide to flash it?

Memory test may be more destructive than a stock flash .

hmm, ok, I'll install the stock firmware again.
can I pick any stock firmware for GT-I9300 or should I select the firmware based on phone current FW/baseband/recovery installed?
Use the latest full stock issued for your country, flash with odin and factory reset.
