Hi,
I'm facing a strange issue on Redmi Note 3 (SD) for past couple of weeks. The display suddenly turns blank, while all other things are functioning. If I try to turn off and turn on the display immediately, the screen remains blank. However, the problem automatically resolves itself after a few mins. I thought this could be due to heating, so I cleared up a lot of storage space and uninstalled all unnecessary apps. The problem still persists.
It is completely random. The display will suddenly turn blank, and will be back to normal if I unlock after a few mins. This is really frustrating. The things I've tried (and failed) include:
Removing and reattaching the cable connected to the display port
Cleaning the entire board
Storage cleanup
Battery optimizations
Temperature oversight
Has anyone else faced similar issue? Are you aware of any solutions?

Hey guys,
I know there has been a couple of posts like this that I have found through searching but none have actually found a solution, so instead of resurrecting a old thread I thought I would start a new one.
Basically I am having some issues with my new pebble blue (yey) S3 . I have found that sometimes when the phone is sleeping when I press the power button to bring it out of sleep the lock screen begins to hang. This is followed by a number of different things, the screen either glitches for a bit and then begins to work or it stays locked and needs a battery pull. As well as this I've found that randomly either when charging or not and the phone is sleeping it simply becomes unresponsive, staying on a black screen and needing a battery pull to fix (this has only occured a few times, the hanging lock screen occurs quite often).
I have done some searching and found little in the way of a solution or what the problem is, however I have found that when the lock screen hangs -if it begins to work again after glitching out the 'WIFI connected to ****' appears at the bottom of the screen. Anyway if anyone has any ideas or also recieves this problem I would really appreciate some help as it's driving me crazy and I'm unsure if it is a common S3 bug or a faulty handset, in which case I have limited time to RMA.
Cheers in advance
Hmm, sounds like a faulty phone to me. Try taking it back to get it exchanged for onother one. S3 was built to fly not crawl.
You'll want to go through a process of elimination to figure out when might be causing it.
Something you can try and test with (one at a time)
-turn on airplane mode
-turn off live wallpaper
-shut down all running tasks
-change your lock screen security method
-limit the number of widgets running on all the screens
-reduce the number of active screens
Probably other things you can try to pull out of the equation, but thats a good start
After looking up dial-a-phones returns policy it would seem that I have 28 days to return if the handset is faulty, so this atleast gives me some breathing room to try out any suggestions for fixes. I will begin to eliminate each of the suggested items above however as the lock screen problem is intermittent it make take a day so actually see if it has had an effect, which is annoying at the least.
On another note a numberupted of people are stating high battery life on their devices however mine doesn't seem to be as good and I do have power saving on as well as nfc etc. turned off. This makes me believe my handset could have a fault, but tbf I haven't allowed for a discharge to 5% and the recharging to 100% which I heare allows for optimisation of the battery.
EDIT**** I have changed the lock screen previously and found it had no effect on the problem and I do not have a live wallpaper in use.
Phone Freezing after reboot and auto wifi signal found on.
Same here, been happening the last few days after I installed Avast. Also, turning off and on the auto on wifi seemed to replicate the problem.
The phone will boot to the lock screen and freeze a bit, and sometimes the news ticker freezes, and then after unlocked, I try to turn off wifi signal has been found on the notification dropdown and then tries to auto connect to wifi, the phone will freeze up if I dont turn it off in time.
Once the auto wifi connect is off and reboots, then the phone will keep glitching up until it catches up processing alot of processes it was trying to do for about 1/2 hr. Also, if phone freezes up for too long, like after trying too many time of unlocking the screen while freezing up, the phone gets stuck at the lock screen and the phone almost overheated, in an area right below the battery. I had to pull the battery out to cool it off.
It seems to be a glitch in the auto wifi, especially if alot of resources are being used. Once Avast was on my phone about 1.5GB RAM is being used sometimes and since has really slowed the phone down. Going uninstall alot of apps.

Same problem.
No problem if Wifi is switched off prior to sleep.
No problem if Wifi connection is still available.
Problem to lockscreen if Wifi connection is broken (move away from connected router).
Any suggestion?

Exactly the same here. Driving me crazy. I did root the phone using the Samsung Galaxy S3 Toolkit. I don't know if the problem also exists on non rooted devices.
S3 black screen after unlocking
Has there anyone experience S3's screen went on black? I have pebble blue S3 - GT-I9300. Cases when unlocking, answering an incoming call or attempting to turn off an
alarm? Mine happens when after unlocking the screen then it goes black and screen becomes unresponsive. It happens intermittently and even after 3 times of
reprogramming. I am now going to have it replaced. I am having a lot of troubles -- it exits on its own when im reading or composing an SMS; files were deleted after
restarting the unit, and an app opens up even not touching the scree. This is expensive and I am paying a lot just to experience this king of inconvenience.

I also rooted my S3 a few days ago (with the S3 toolkit), and have had lots of problems with unresponsive lockscreens (I use PIN, because of exchange connection). It takes a few seconds or maybe up to as long a minute before I'm able to punch in the PIN-numbers. Before this the screen lights up but does not respond to input.
But the WiFi-connection issue might be what is the triggering factor, because after a boot it wotks just fine for several hours, if I'm not moving out of my current WiFi zone. First I thought it was either Secure Settings or Tasker that made my device lock up in this matter, but now as they are both uninstalled, the problem still occurs.
Are you running some kind of custom rom, or just the latest stock ROM, but rooted?

Just the latest stock ROM but rooted. I've found out that turning off the wifi power safe mode fixes the problem for me. To do this:
- In the dailer enter *#0011#
- Press the menu key
- Select wifi
- Press the on/off button.
The wifi power safe mode will however be turned on during boot. So rebooting will set it back on.
*#0011# seems does the trick. But is annoying had to do this every time after power off (change battery, change Sim, flying).... Anyway to keep the setting?
I am also on stock Rom and rooted. Interested to know any non-rooted phone got this problem?
BTW. I found a quick (at least quicker than pull the battery) way to get out of the forzen lock screen (sometimes forgot to do the 0011 trick): press the power button (screen will Dim instead of OFF), then hold the home button for few seconds, as soon as you see the "menu" and "back" button lit up, the lock is un-freeze...
A permanent solution is appreciated for such an advance phone....

Not that I know of.
Problem solved. For me anyway. Hope works for all of you having the same trouble.
My trouble begin with recent upgrade to LH3. My S3 was rooted by S3 toolkit v2.0. CWM installed was v4 something.
I un-rooted the phone. Uninstalled S3 toolkit v2.0. Re-installed the S3 Toolkit v5.0. Rooted the phone again (CWM become v6....).
I do not know it was CWM version caused the trouble or not. But my S3 is ok now.
I got it on my non-rooted phone, any additional solutions/suggestions? or service?
I found solution for problem . And my phone is working well. I downloaded rom file android 4.1.2 and flash my phone
JB 4.1.1 caused these WiFi issues on my phone

Exact opposite for me...never had the problem then since loading stock JB 4.1.1 with root I get lockups or freezes whenever WiFi is turned off or I leave my router's range. As soon as I disconnect from WiFi the whole phone freezes.
The *#0010# also locks up the phone when I turn off the WiFi power saving feature.
None of this happened before JB...and I replaced my phone with week via warranty due to this and the new phone does the exact same thing as soon as I upgraded to JB with root.
Any ideas?
Black screen / random reboot solution
Hi All,
I've had the black screen / random reboot issue for a few days. The only way to restore functionality on black screen lockup was to remove the battery.
I tried changing to Chrome browser and stopping the stock browser as suggested in some threads but it kept crashing.
I searched everywhere and most threads suggest a dodgy motherboard.
For me the issue was related to either a single PDF download via the stock browser or the fact I had quite alot of saved PDF files on my phone (S3 Stock firmware I9300XXELLA)
After deleting all the files listed in Internet downloads (look for Downloads with a green arrow Icon in apps) my trusty S3 has returned to normal. No black screen lockups, no hanging, runs like a dream!
I appreciate this may not solve everyones black sceeen issues but I haven't found any other thread with this solution. Hope it works for you.
Thanks,
Giz.

Thanks for the tip...
Was this happening on JB for you? You mention stock firmware (not familiar with I9300)...so I am guessing it was ICS.
For me the issues are with JB and I had no files at all in the Downloads folder after a certain point when I wiped / formatted the SDCard...so I do not think my lockups were related to PDFs. But I did (and still do) have a ton of music and a lot of movies on the External MicroSD Card....and quite a few custom notification and ringtone MP3s on the Internal SDCard. Next time I load JB I will run it a few days with none of this media loaded....

This is on JB 4.1.2, Phone had been updated to 4.1.2 for about a month. The issues started after a pdf download. Once all pdf's were deleted the handset works perfectly.

Hi,
I'm looking for some general advice and troubleshooting for my phone's issues. My phone started crashing very often, sometimes at complete random, as well as when I was using it fairly heavily (any app that froze my phone for a second before loading before the crashing would now crash my phone). Sometimes it would reboot fine, other times it would bootloop once or twice before reloading fine. I previously tried doing a factory reset, removing my external microSD card, and updating everything via Kies and nothing worked.
I got bored and rooted my phone, did a full wipe, and flashed the latest Infamous update. The problem was still there but it wouldn't crash as often while using it because my phone could handle higher app activity but it's still there. Oddly enough, after flashing Infamous, it often fails to reboot and so I have to do a battery pull before turning it back on, otherwise it won't even vibrate after holding the power button.
I'm just wondering if you guys have any idea what the issue could be. Is it likely still something I can fix? Is this potentially a battery issue or is it a hardware issue?
Thanks so much!

Might be a specific app that is causing problems. When the problem happens again just reboot into safemode by long tapping on the restart button or power button. And then see if the problem still persists.

I'm thinking the same its getting worst day by day unsable.
My Redmi Note 9 Pro keeps restarting randomly (mostly when i use the camera). It just straight freezes and restart itself. Recently it only happens when opening the camera, but now it also happens when i playing games (CoC/CoD). Anyone who shares the same problem?
My Note 9 Pro EU starts to reboot after the recent EU update. But I saw this issue only when the GPS is on and phone working as navigation. Sometimes it can reboot after 30 min, and sometimes after 2 min, time to reboot after turn on navigation is random :/. I thought that is software bug so I unlock bootloader and flash newest xiaomi.eu but it didn't help :/
Have you tested your GPS on the test menu?
You can enter it with few clicks on KERNEL VERSION at "My device" in the settings ?
Unfortunately it's seems that GPS is OK with that test. I even revert to EU 11.0.1 and problem with GPS still appear. So it must by something with my unit :/
Tried turning off the option "Use assisted GPS" ?
if you check on here: https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?device=1900378 that recent update for 11.0.4 was pulled due to issues.
thats why i always delay updating the phone when a new update comes out. give it atleast a week or 2 to see if its safe. in this case it got pulled in a day.

Same problem here.
This error occured with all these official version
11.0.2
11.0.3
11.0.4
this is frustrating me.
any hel?
Same problem with 11.0.1 and 11.0.3 reboots while using GPS incl getting hot (maybe thats the point for the reboots) and also while using WLAN with network certificate...
Need help too. All GPS related options are disabled, any further ideas using advanced options?
Is this related to WiFi issue?
Last time i was trying one thing. I turn off access for many apps to GPS (system apps etc.) and run navigation for whole night with plugged charger and screen set to 100% brightness. And for my surprise phone did not restart! For test time my Redmi Note 9 Pro was running on Xiaomi.eu 11.0.4.
So maybe it's software bug? Because earlier my phone was restarting even when screen was off with navigation running. So for me it's not heating issue.
I'm having the same issue. In my case the phone will freeze/reboot instantly if a foreground app, such as maps or the camera, accesses the location, and will occasionally reboot itself while sleeping if location is enabled. Wiping the phone seems to correct it for a little while but the problem always returns.
So far I've tried stock roms 11.0.2 and 11.0.4, and Xiaomi.eu 11.0.4 and all have been affected.
I'm going to have to install a custom rom such as the GSI AOSP one and see if that fixes it. If the reboots still happen on a rom not based on stock, I'll have to return the phone. A phone without GPS isn't of much use to me.
I use AOSP + gapps and don't have reboot issues.
Well I had no issues on 11.04 EU, while using GPS but if connected to a known WiFi it reboots sometimes. While further investigate the GPS ...

My Redmi Note 9 Pro with MIUI 11.0.4.0 stable Global reboots itself every now and then! When I am on Chrome it freezes and restarts!
I just got a redmini Pro 9 note some weeks ago it's been hell. It keeps saying "device shuts down unexpectedly" go off and comes on cannot do anything meaningful because it happens so frequently. I have rebooted, fast rebooted million times. I really regret buying this useless phone
On mine, After flash custom rom, give the same problem
Anyone solved this reboot issue? How?
My brand new note 9 pro (global version) randomly reboots with no apparent reason. It may happen while sleeping or while in use. It happens once every day, more or less.
No news? Have you asked for a replacement or was it a software issue? Please help, mine reboots once a day on average and I have to decide if returning it (bought through Amazon)
I have this weird issue, where my phone's backlight keeps turning on and off on ceritain interfall. But it only occurs after it loads android. In TWRP it's completely fine. In Fastboot, completely fine. Heck, even during charging animation, there is no problem whatsoever. Immediately after I boot the phone to system's where the problem exist.
I installed new custom rom, PixelExperience, but no cigar. I thought it was sensor problem, but as far as Sensor Box can tell, there is no problem whatsoever. Could it be mainboard problem? Or will installing new kernel or updating MIUI by fastboot, are enough?
Thanks.
