No you didn't mess anything up , sometime flashes don't take correctly
The fix is pretty simple , Clean flash rom

[FREEZE OVER 3 DIF ROMS] looking for ideas...

Hi all i had 4.1.2 stok with some bloatware removed and siyah kernel , everything was fine till i was tempted by the so called ubber fast other roms.
Installed cm installer got snapshot 10.2 and there start my trouble. Phone was fine but it was randomly freezing and sometimes reboot others not. 1st time i was dealing with this , checked waht version i had , saw it wasnt the stable one (my phone didnt gave any info for update to stable btw) so i thought thats it.
Installed cm 10.2 once phone booted , freeze. Just like that on 1st sec. Cleaned dalvnik , cleaned data , problem still there ...
Installed 4.3 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2569180) almost stok , updated modem , cleaned chaches , format system , format cache , deleted everything i could find to delete/format from recovery (cwm 6.0.4.4 touch) exept sdcard...
Guess what ? Problem still there
It can be when i touch to type a sms , when i hit enter on a url to load , when i open an app or it will reboot just byitself (i hear boot sound so i have to type the pin).
Any ideas at all on what should i do ?
Ps : I have the idea that it all started when i reinstalled cerberus app on cm 10.2 snapshot edition, but that would be impossible after so many wipes wouldnt it ?
Is there any way to monitor what activity is causing it to freeze?

Try using the app contained in that thread, once you've flashed full stock.
Freezing is usually nand damage, no fix is possible -freezing is the work around in action. Wait until the freeze stops and it should get better as the os learning to avoid the bad blocks.

did it, 3,5 days no freeze then it slowly start again as i see.
Should i do it again ? Isnt there some way finding those faulty locations and force os never to read/write again ?
My girlfriend s3 was having that symptoms a few days after that leads to sudden death. Try check it with emmc brick bug from google play. I might be wrong tho.

There are more tips in the freezing thread but, as I understand, the freezes are the os learning to avoid the bad blocks -if it's getting worse then emmc chip may be cascading. There is no cure, apart from a new motherboard which should be covered by warranty.

[Discussion Thread] CrDroid ROM

This is the ONLY thread you guys will talk about the CrDroid ROM.
DONT post questions or whatever at the other leaked AOSP ROM thread else it'll create much confusion
So far annoyances thats been reported are:
• Random reboots (at least for some people)
• Auto-brightness
• Underclocked CPU
• Not working HDR & Panaroma (solved with workaround)

Regarding Random Reboots !
I have been using the ROM since yesterday though i have yet not observed a single reboot . I have tried following things as suggested in AOSP thread however it does not give me a reboot. Auto Brightness is the only lingering issue i faced !
Any pointers to reproduce the reboots ?

Yeah, first time it happens random, but if it once happens to you, then you will be able to reproduce it.
Anyone try to use the boot.img from leaked AOSP ROM and put I to this ROM? If yes do the random reboot still happening?

I can try this but not sure of the exact steps to follow... I like the CM rom very much.. blazing fast with ART, but random reboots quite often. I am now using wakelock to control the reboots. if you think changing the boot.img can help, i will try it out. lemme know what to do for tht

Before flashing the ROM zip simply replace the boot.img in the crdroid with the one from aosp.
I can try this later but I'm outside now

Done... Flashing went ok but after booting all my apps are gone (I didnt do a clean wipe while flashing.. only wiped dalvik)
The apps are gone anyway.. so i went back to recovery and did another clean flash.. Reboot the phone, but no mobile network. Unable to latch on to network even manually.. so may be there is something missing in the boot.img ?
Back key
Anyone can confirm back key in this rom didnt behave as it should after deleting pre-install files such as baidu services apps
edit 1 - looks like it has been warned by the dev as do not delete keyboard input method or else back button wont work..
Where is the link to the ROM. I'd update OP. Also, is there any bugs with the ROM? Or is it working like AOSP?

CPU constantly overheating

Hey guys hope you are well, wondering if you can help me with an issue on my Z2. I've noticed recently my phone has started to fell very hot to touch and occassionally lagging a bit doing pretty normal things like web browsing. I ran unutu and found that I wasn't getting the scores that I usually got even at stock and when overclocked a message would come up stating that my phone was too hot to even start the test. I've don't think it's too many apps I've checked my cpu oads during normal use and they always stay under 40%. I run greenify and have manager to limit the number of apps at start up. I also run at -12 volatge daily and I haven't run into any issues with temps up to now so I really can't figure out what it could be. Anyone have any ideas to to what could have caused it?
Bump, anyone?
Make a backup in twrp or cwm
Flash a FTF via flashtool, exclude data
See if it still lags

Well I am using a custom rom could that be causing it? I flashed the rom to begin with and i had no overheating issues at all but my phone started being weird with storage so I completely wiped the phone and installed everything again including the custom rom and that's when it started overheating

I'm using the Sirius audio rom, I haven't heard any reports of it overheating and it was fine the 1st time I installed so I think you may be right in saying my partition may be screwed up.
Just tried backing up my data using cwm and it comes up with an error message: 'Error while making a backup of /system' I definitely have enough space on my sd card, any idea what could be causing this?
EDIT: When backing up my it says there's only 700mb free when I know there's at least 17gb! some thing's definitely not right here

Backup your internal storage
(aka plug into pc and copy)
Flash a FTF using flashtool and after thats done put ur stuff back into ur storage
(int storage will be wiped)
EDIT 2: Just realised cwm was trying to backup to the internal storage but it was called sd card and my actual sd card was called sd card 1 seems to backing up fine now :good:

Ok so I wont need to factory reset before flashing a the rom again then?
Also what's flash tool? Can I not use cwm to flash?
Sorry for all the noob questions this is the 1st phone I've rooted and I'm pretty new to all this stuff
Thanks for your help Envious _Data I figured out what you meant above
just one last thing do I have to flash a stock rom and re-root again or can I convert my custom rom to a ftf file?

Ok so I've flashed a stock rom with flash tool, now I can just go ahead and flash my custom rom straight over the top right?

I'd recommend using stock rom as is for a couple of days, it'll give you a control to compare your custom rom with and hopefully rule out possible hardware issues.

Just tested idle temps and they do seem to be a bit lower, however I can't really compare atm as I did most of my testing whilst benching
So tried flashing a stock ftf rom but I'm getting the same temps as before, also when I try and flash a new rom I get a message saying 'android is upgrading: Starting apps'
Ok so tried deleting the system cache and deleted the dalvik cache as well as factory reset the device but now I cant flash a new rom or even charge the phone. Someone please help I basically have an unusable brick. Is there anything I can do or is the phone only fit for the bin now?

Phone not booting after flashing GooglePixelExperience zip

I got the latest CM14.1 nightly(25 Dec) and flashed it. After that, I flashed the BlackReactor Kernel. I booted the phone and it booted up fine. I went ahead and flashed Opengapps after that. Then I went through the setup process and then flashed the GooglePixelExperience zip (v3.5) However when I booted the phone, the boot screen was completely blank and the phone's LED turned white. I waited but then the phone did not boot up.

Unrepairable hard brick. Sent mine with same prolbem to them, got it back with new mainboard. Now it on a new unreleased rom built and twrp doesn't find any partition. So no more root or custom rom.
See my posts to read more about it.
I had similar issue with a kernel once where screen went black and white LED. Was able to reflash ROM no problem. Your better too install pixel experience piece by piece.
Can't be a hard brick

It can't be a hard brick, I was able to get into recovery and wipe and reflash the ROM, this time without flashing GooglePixel Experience and it worked just fine.

What do you mean by installing GooglePixel Experience piece by piece? It's a single zip file.
Did it work on any previous version of the rom or did it work without the custom kernel?

Google experience is made up of mostly installable apps. You could open the zip with file manager and see what it consists of. Might be just one thing in the zip that's not compatible with your device or maybe are version of cm14

I never tried using it with the previous version of the ROM, I had found the zip from a different site and it worked just fine. I wasn't able to find the link to my previous one and only found this: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=122156

Definitely not mate. Hell half the time if mine kernel panics, depending on the rom it just goes to a black screen with white LED. You can find that all across this forum as the phone just does that.

S6 Edge Keeps on Restarting/Crashing

A good day to all!
I have had an issue with my S6 edge (SM-G925F, Philippines Globe Carrier Version) for months now wherein it keeps restarting/crashing. The problem persists so randomly, sometimes multiple times a day or sometimes a day or two without it. I've already tried everything I could find in the internet, such as; deleting the cache in recovery, factory wiping the phone, and flashing the newest firmware i found for it on sammobile. Noting seemed to work. This is my last attempt in fixing the phone before I give up. I hope someone can give me good advice about this.
So nobody knows how to fix this? I don't care if it's a hardware problem i just wanna know
yh man,same problem...i cant even boot to the system..is your led flashing blue?

Is the phone currently working?
It sounds like it could be the hardware failing, could be the emmc failing.
The only thing to suggest at this point is to wipe data/cache in recovery and flash a new firmware.
Or try a custom ROM. If it happens on the custom ROM also then it's possibly hardware.

That's EXACTLY what i was thinking although i did not know that was the name of the part. I was just thinking the memory module was maybe defective already. Dang it so the logic board should be replaced right? Because as far as I know the memory is soldered to the board and hard to remove by itself let alone replacing it.
I've already tried the wiping of data/cache and flashed the newest firmware using Odin but the problem still persists.
Also tried the custom ROM and I've tried a lot of them non actually boots to the system. Only flashing the official firmware allows me to boot to the system.
Thank you for the reply I will now just give up on this and just buy a OnePlus 3T.

If it's the emmc then only way to fix is to replace the full motherboard, which isn't cheap.
It's a known problem on note 4. Emmc chip fails and eventually completely packs in.
Which custom Roms did you try? Carhd rom is a good one to try very reliable. Also when flashing a custom ROM it can take 20-30 minutes to boot into the system.

True they are very expensive that's why I'd rather just buy a new phone. I just didn't want to give up such good hardware until I've tried everything.
Oh really? I wonder why that's the case
I actually forgot which ones already but I'm sure I tried Carhd and it didn't boot for more than an hour. But I'll go and check again just to be thorough.

Yeah it's a shame really. I could be wrong that might not occur on yours. Normally when you get emmc failure, the phone will reboot to download mode and give you an error along the lines of emmc Write fail. And then keep repeating this.
3T is a good choice to go for if that's what you decide

It's alright I feel like whatever the hardware issue is it'll require the motherboard to be swapped out anyways. I can finally let the phone rest in peace haha thank you very much.
Yeah it's perfect for an android enthusiast. Already ordered one. Good bye and thanks again!

Wouldn't say it was motherboard yet. After you flash your rom you need to boot to recovery and wipe data/cache. This will fix the apps crashing
done,cant boot the system.
gave a visit to a few services,they sad around 50e would be reparation,but im student and now dont have cash for that ****..you have any other suggestions? i tried custom roms,at first magisk would always faild,last time it was ok but still couldnt boot

Do not pay for it. Chances are if you can't fix it they can't either.
So have you tried flashing stock firmware?
What Android version do you have and what region? What's full model number g925?
Reduce the cpu frequencies to 1200-800mhz for big and little and userspace governor. This the only fix.
ok,so one more thing,on the glass back of the phone sits one imei that is not correct,and on the battery is another,which reports 64g version,while next to that number is printed 32gb and phone actually has 32gb lool
it is supposed to be g925f,but after i installed some custom rom,pc showed it as g925s? i think it is due to rom signing the wrong model number
the last thing i have done was yesterday,and it was flashing firmware through kies again.
and this is what i get :
s6 edge powered by android,followed by blue screen 'installing system update',and then recovery
in the recovery,i get this :
android recovery
samsung/zeroltexx/zerolte
7.0/NRD90M/G925FXXU5EQBG
user/release-keys
*recovery options*
No suppoer SINGLE-SKU
Supported API: 3
dm-verity error...
i realy dont know what else to try,and i am open to all suggestions..i have read that emmc storage is broken so this kind of problems can occur,so maybe service would do that?
thank you,i know this is confusing and boring problem
i tried with odin once more,and it failed at 25% instaing system update,then i restarted it and it got up to 32% and started erasing and it turned off..tf with this phone?? i guess its broken...

Download and flash that firmwsre through odin before you try anything else. Let me know what happens.
I can tell you it's likely not emmc failure. For this you would get random reboots and it would reboot to download mode. There you would have an error emmc_write_error.
wowo thanks,i just gave up on that phone,i will try again,i will report back!
just one question,why vodafone?
oh,and i did have random reboots on android m,but it would reboot to optimizing android and boot
