Hi,
This is Sreehari. I asked this question in the "XDA Assist" forum, but since there is no forum for my device I was suggested to post it here.
the following is what my issue is:
I have been sing Gionee Elife E3 from October last year. First 3-4 months it worked without any problem.. But after that, it started to have frequently signal strength problems..
Frequently the signal bars goes from full to cross very fast. I cannot make a call at that time, but if I put the same SIM in another phone there is no problem. Even rebooting the phone doesn't solve the issue. many of my friends started to say that it is impoosible to get me on the phone most of the time..
Then I gave it to the service center and they flashed it.. It worked well from that point for around 2 weeks, then the problems started again.. after that I started flashing it on my own.. I installed the Chinese firmware to install custom ROMs (for Indian firmware custom ROMs were not available till recently) to see how it goes.. I tried the ColorOS over the Chinese firmware and things felt alright for around 2 weeks again.. now the problems started again and more severe than ever.. the phone is practically useless now that it cannot be relied at all..
I completely annoyed and puzzled by these.. if it is a firmware problem how does it go away after flashing and return after sometime? Could it be a problem with the radio/modem software?
I love this phone, it is awesome model and I don't want to leave it.. can anyone help me? I am not an Android developer but I do have some knowledge on flashing, recovery, backups etc. I can post any screenshot or logs as needed.
PS: I have a doubt on its wi-fi range as well since that also seems to drop very fast, not completely sure though..

can anyone help??
Hey guys,I'm very new to posting but I've used these forums for information for years. I was hoping someone could help me.
I have Samsung note 4 n910w8 bell and TWRP. I load almost every cool new rom onto it. I've partitioned it after a format and what not.
Its always ran great but a month ago it started rebooting on its own. No new ROM would fix it. Now it boots when it wants too and seandroid void is gone from the boot screen it simply says kernel warranty void. When it powers off sometimes it boots into download mode and sometimes it boot cycles. Then it will launch the ROM. But no matter what rom I run it says things are crashing and will restart. When it decides to be off I can plug it into the wall and not even get power indication. I've ordered two batteries from eBay and I'm waiting for them to arrive and no local cellular technician will look at it after I describe the situation. They simply call it a brick. I know NOTHING about cellular hardware. Can anyone suggest anything?
Hi, I have had reboots before but never like this and always with several months to half year apart, yesterday my phone started rebooting if i touched something in the menu. Of course I thought it were virus or malware that had infected the system or some faulty app that had done something to the ROM.
Therefore I got the stock ROM I had saved for just in case and another one I would try if ever I got tired of this phone(then use it for test purpose):
Stock ROM: Lenovo_A916_USR_S1205_141013
Second one, without bloatware: A916_USR_S206_baralajbi
Both from www.needrom.com
And I flashed the phone with first A916_USR_S206_baralajbi - unfortunately this one has problem with the charging animation when the phone is off, a small issue but enough for me to go back to stock ROM.
So I flashed with stock ROM.
Unfortunately in both cases it did not solve the reboot issue, so now I'm a big ?
Can it be the battery that suddently went dead?
Or can it be some other issue, like the ram being filled up and need to be zeroed out(read somewhere that this type of ram is not like HDD so not getting emptied just by deleting files, it will happened over time, when its overwritten)?
I really need some geniuses here, I'm in the Philippines right now until end of may, of course I could buy another phone, Dogee, HomTom, cherry mobile or asus zenphone but all has a price a bit out of my budget, and i need to save money for the trip home. Unfortunately I really need my phone.
Most of my data is backed up so I can just restore it, to new phone.
Hope someone has a way to bring back my Lenovo

EDIT: I'm still in need of help with this, I'm just sitting here waiting for someone to answer - can't do much else.
No one know what to do about this or what the cause is?
Hi guys, another one for the Solutions Corner, it was the battery - strange that "geniuses" at Lenovo + nobody here couldn't come up with that!
With new battery the phone is no longer rebooting!

Hi everybody i am asking for advice on trying to repair a phone for a family member the phone is a galaxy alpha F variant UK stock rom, factory unlocked and unrooted the problem started after finishing a call the handset was left un attended and when it was later picked up the screen was black but does not appear broken aywhere and does not appear to respond to touch
i have tried un successfully to get it into recovery or download modes the handset turns on and the blue lights come on and you can hear the start up tone but see nothing on screen, it also charges and i have tried a new battery, odin does recognise a device but as i cant get it into download i cant flash a stock rom which i have already downloaded.
So my question is, is there any software that i can download to diagnose whether or not the screen is dead or whether it is a f/w issue or is there a way around this where i can use a different tool to get into the handset and flash a new stock rom in case the current f/w is corrupted
Thanks in advance for any useful help and advice
Please understand that i am a newb to this so if i have made some mistakes or my questions have been answered elsewhere previously i do apologise
I think it seems pretty obvious that the problem is the display itself
Hi BigHands,
I faced a problem having the exact same symptoms as yours twice in the last few month: screen was staying black but phone reacted to some "external" actions (ON/OFF), blue light.
Not sure what happened exactly, but removing the battery and trying to restart the phone finally brought the device back to life after trying more than than 10 times!!!
So in my case, the display was probably not the (only) root cause.
Really weird however that I needed to reboot the phone >10times to make it work: usually when software is screwed either one single power cycle will bring the device back to life or it will never power up again!
Anyways, a FW issue is still a possibility considering the number of bug this phone has (for the price it was sold, that phone is definitely the worse gadget I ever owned!)... But it seems there is a bunch of FW updates on going on this model accross the world, so there is still a little hope things might improve... Samsumg may have woken up; who knows...
