Jedi Mind Trick JB 6 issue - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When i hold power button down reset phone, usually on accident in pocket but when it reboots. It gets stuck at loading screen progress bar 98% done wanna say and never goes to the next screen, will let sit for hour nothing, reboot phone sometimes get the samsung words and just stays their. Tried clear cache dalvik and reg. factory reset, fix permissions, still all same no proper boot. If restore from a backup works otherwise have reflash. Anyone have this issue before and is their a fix when happens so don't loose all texts and info in general.

Try nandroid manager @ playstore to retrieve texts & stuff

Unchangeable phone

Hello,
Basically, my phone works. I can call, sms, photograph and so on, but:
When I try to flash new rom, via Kies, Odin or other tool everything goes smoothly, blue progress bars advance and complete, phone reboots, and ... I have old rom, nothing is changed, no data is deleted.
When I install new apps they work until I power off phone. After power on new and updated apps are gone, deleted SMS are back, it looks like the phone inside was frozen in time some time ago and all that is going on is going in ram or some virtual machine, and vanishes.
It happened some weeks ago, I cannot recall when exactly. Something I installed was suddenly missing and SMS after reboot came back, but I ignored it then like a sporadic glitch.
I just discovered, that I also can't do factory reset. System recovery <3e> shows, but doing wipe data or wipe cache has no effect. Nothing gets wiped, apps and data remain intact. The only unusual thing I see in the recovery console is:
Can't access to '/system/csc/PLS/system/'
Is it a virus or is it just broken or what?

I suggest doing a deep clean...

Why is my GS3 doing this ?

ok,30 minutes ago my gs3 was next to me and I had music on then all of a sudden the ''Samsung Galaxy S III" splash screen appeared.It kept appearing and disappearing so I took the battery out for a while then inserted it and it turned on.5 minutes later the same thing happened and now it is working again but well this might happen again.What could be the problem ? can it be SDS ? but I had my gs3 for a year and a half so I doubt that.I'm running wanamlite 4.1.2,have been using this rom for almost a year.(except for trying out a few other roms sometimes).
Reflash your rom, try first without a wipe.

You can try this:-
Go to recovery and do factory reset. (You will loose all software installed by you, may b contact & sms too)
Wipe Cache & Dalvik Cache
Tried a factory reset and tried restoring to a an old backup,didn't help.I didn't try reflashing the rom, I doubt it will work because restoring to a backup that was working fine didn't help either.I'm thinking about giving it to samsung,hope they won't blame rooting and custom rom for the problem but I'm out of warranty period anyways.
Try another rom! But with a clean install! don't restore your nadroid backup data, use Titanium Backup for your apps.
I noticed that it happens when I actually use the phone(like for a few minutes) but when it's idle,it operates normally.
I don't have any other roms right now and I can't download any because my internet is limited currently.
UPDATE: It looks like the problem is the power button because when the phone does boot,the boot menu keeps showing up and when I pull the battery and insert it again,it boots automatically.I will get it fixed,thanks all.

Stuck on the Xperia wallpaper or Updating apps message after a sudden restart...

Hello!
I am guessing I will have to reinstall but just in case, while trying to play South Park on Firefox yesterday the phone just went into a reboot which was odd.
Then it got stuck on the xperia wall paper trying to restart to I forced it to shutdown and tried wiping dalvik and cache partition even on my 3rd try and even reflashing the Doom kernel and still either gets stuck on the wallpaper or it will show the updating process then after the count down ends, it says updating apps and never changes from there.
I can feel the phone vibrating like it does right before it shows the home screen but it never happens.
So, unless someone knows of a miracle cure, it seems I will be reinstalling tonight.
Right now I am using my Wife's Note 2 with pink case...cool! :laugh:

boot into recovery
do nandroid back up
wipe /data and caches
reboot
If that was successful restore apps and data using one of the backup managers and reboot before each new app until you find the one that is the problem?

Multiple bootloops until phone starts

I'm facing a very weird issue with bootloops.
I'm running 4.3 stock on a Galaxy s3, rooted with twrp.
I did a battery pull because my phone was playing music in a meeting and I had to quickly disable it (maybe it wasn't such a good idea)
The weird thing now is that my phone boot loops repeatedly on the Samsung logo... But it gets closer and closer to starting up every time.... At some point you see the beginning of the launcher but it reboots again.... At a certain point it finally loads up
I've tried wiping cache and dalvik cache partitions but it does the same (it caches apps, reboots and caches a few more until after 20 min it's as startup)
I'm wondering if there's a good way to run a diagnostic or log to find out what's happening, how about ' adb catlog' ?
If anyone has any other suggestions or advice, I'd appreciate it.
By the way, it's not a hardware issue because when I did a wipe, the problem was gone, so I restored this nandroid backup and the problem persists

dozens of apps suddenly having a crashing party

I've got a number of Moto G that have been working fine for months. Suddenly, one of them is constantly having apps crash. I'm talking literally every second. As fast as I can close the crash notification popup another one pops up for another app. android.process.acore, com, com.google.process.gapps, dozens of others. A reboot will fix it for a few minutes, but then it goes on a frenzy again. I've tried wiping the cache and dalvik cache with clockworkmod recovery. I've tried uninstalling updates for google play services. I unfortunately don't have a backup created for this device. I would try to factory reset, but the last time I tried factory resetting a rooted Moto G through the android interface it bootlooped. If I can't fix this, is there a way in clockworkmod recovery to "reset" back to just after I rooted the phone? If not, I may be able to copy over a backup from a similar phone, but I'm not sure if that would work.
EDIT: I think this phone might have just **** the bed. Bootloops when trying to turn on normally (unlocked bootloader warning screen, then motorola spinning world graphic, then off). Volume Down + Power in off state does nothing so I can't even get into the bootloader.
