Automatically Restarts - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers

Good day, friends!
Trust everyone is doing well.
I have recently unlocked the bootloader of my Redmi Note 5 Pro and flashed with Pixel Experience 10+ custom rom. Everything was going well but recently it has started automatic restarting. Here are few cases when it restarts automatically:
1. Mostly when I unlock my phone after some period of keeping it locked.
2. When I turn on Mobile Internet data after unlocking my phone.
3. Suddenly while opening a new app or while swiping to other app.
My Attempts to fix it:
1. Uninstalled all unnecessary app.
2. Removed memory card from phone.
3. Kept internal storage more than 50% free.
4. Even tried with factory reset but didn't work.
Please note that my phone is not rooted. It is just a bootloader unlocked.
If anyone had faced the similar problem earlier, please feel free to write your opinion. I've tried so many things and frustrated now. Everyone's comment will be appreciated. Thank you for reading patiently.

Maybe a kernel bug. Search in the forum for another kernel and backup before your boot.img.

Lenovo Lemon 3 - irritating problems with stock ROM

Hi!
I'm new on XDA, so I'm sorry if the thread is placed in wrong subforum - if it is, I'm asking mod to move it in more proper place.
I bought Lenovo Lemon 3 - it was advertised as Vibe K5 Plus, but apparently the seller wasn't that reliable as I thought. As far as I know, the differences beetwen these models are little or none, but I have pretty big problems with the phone.
First of all it has some preinstalled software, which isn't in Play Store and some of them I can't even find in the net. The apps I would like to get rid off are KingRoot, MaxxAudio and SecurityIT. I successfully managed to disable MiBrowser - with help of KingRoot tool Purify actually. I tried to disable SecurityIT also, but if I do that I can't enter Settings->Apps. When I try the com.android.settings is stopped and it's not working till i enable SecurityIT again.
Second of all is that process com.android.phone is stopping randomly. Sometimes I click "ok" and I it starts working again. But sometimes it keeps crashing until I restart the phone. Since it's a dual sim phone and I'm using only one sim I thought that maybe this is causing a problem, but inserting second card wouldn't work, so currently I have no idea what is causing the problem. I tried cleaning cache and appdata with no effect. If the process is crashing and somebody will call - the phone restarts itself when I try to answer.
Thirdly it's hot. Even if I'm not doing anything and all apps are off and Im charging the phone it sometimes says that it can't be charged because of too high temperature on battery. Sometimes it works fine, but sometimes it's too hot too touch and I don't know why.
Oh, and one more thing. Something is installing random software. It looks like every time I open Chrome something is opening new tab and redirecting to PlayStore. I am trying to close these tabs while they're loading, but sometimes it loads too fast. Every morning I uninstall some new app, which is apparently installed by night. And those apps aren't added to my Play Store Account. I have disabled unknown sources, but I can see that phone is checking for updates around 2 a.m - so maybe those apps are from there - but I can't see any possibility to disable auto-updates. I have disabled auto updates in Play Store and I have "Lenovo Enhanced Experience" unchecked. Most of apps I installed from Play Store are games I had on the previous phone so I am sure they're not dangerous. Any ideas to prevent the installation of this unwanted software will be appreciated.
Since I used KingRoot to disable MiBrowser I apparently rooted it, but I was reading that this works only with KingRoot installed and with internet connection. And it's sending some data to China, which is not nice. RootChecker says it's rooted.
Lenovo Launcher it's not great either, I downloaded Lollipop Launcher from store and it works fine, but I had to block Lenovo Launcher from autostart, because it was very irritating and was enabling few times.
I am living in Europe so I was thinking is it possible to put on this phone Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus Stock ROM? Or is it this "trashy" like the one I have? I really like specs of the phone and I don't wanna return it, but I don't like the software behavior. Can you tell me what I can do to improve this? I don't care about warranty and I would like to have pure, non trashy Lollipop, so if it is possible somehow I would be glad for any help.
Thank you in advance for any help!
Lenovo Lemon 3 K32C36 > Cyanogenmod 14 - 7.1.1: SUCCESS
Hi
Did not know where to post this, I was not allowed to post in developer forums:
For those unlucky enough to have bought a Lenovo Lemon 3, I offer hope. My daugther's 'Lemon' now runs cyanogenmod 14 near flawlessly.
Here's what finally did it.
1st you have to unlock the bootloader. I found this page, google translated it,
http://4pda.ru/forum/lofiversion/index.php?t717648-420.html
and near the bottom is this link to a 'one-click bootloader unlocker'
http://lenovo-forums.ru/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=56376
[All this is similar to the Lenovo unbricking described here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k5-plus/how-to/unbrick-vibe-k5-plus-qfil-qpst-method-t3467830
but a lot of that is not what you need now.]
You have to install and run QPST from this on a Windows machine, and the Lenovo and Qualcomm USB drivers and the Visual C thing too to set it up.
I fiddled for a while but eventually got QFIL to recognize the Lemon. Keep in mind Win is pickier about USB cables than Linux.
Following instructions carefully, that one click then worked!
I moved back to Linux and adb and did the second part (pasting instructions from the Win .bat file into a root terminal). Sure enough, when I booted into recovery I had TWRP! But it showed no files on the Lemon and said there was no OS there! Nevertheless I was able to boot back into the awful K32C36 system with no problem.
So I went back to adb and did it again, but this time from the info and links on this page - but I did not at that time see the need to root.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k5-plus/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-2-0-lenovo-vibe-k5-t3391100
Beyond all expectation TWRP then booted and all was visible.
I then picked this ROM page because someone had wrote that they had it working on K32C36
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k5-plus/development/unofficial-cm14-lenovo-k5-k5-plus-t3478288
to get this
http://moto.shreps.fr/Lenovo Vibe K...cm-14.x/cm-14.1-20161213-UNOFFICIAL-A6020.zip
Then onto SD card with it and pico 7.1.1 gapps
Install with TWRP (after backing up lame old ROM and wiping system, data, cache, as advised).
Long wait during 1st new system boot (I thought it was defeat) -- but comes the little blue man bringing very good Nougat.
Hope someone gets helped here .

Note 4 problems with freezing/crashing

I have a sprint note 4. I don't have it activated currently and use it as a tablet of sorts. Recently it's been giving me problems and I've wanted to break it. I got it about 2 years ago, and since then I rooted it, then installed twrp recovery, then flashed custom software. The software I used was called Dr.Ketans I believe, it combined the note 5 and s6 edge plus softwares. It started to crash occasionally so I installed cyanogenmod onto it. It worked for a bit, but now when Turing the device on, it takes like 10-15 minutes to boot up. And it only stays on for 5 minutes before it crashes and freezes. When it does that, the only way I can boot it up again is take the batter out and put it back in a few times because sometimes I get an error message. The error message barely happens but it says something along the line of "cant boot up". If I use twrp, my phone doesn't freeze. I've tried reinstalling the software, I've tried formatting the entire phone and refreshing. Nothing seems to work. I've even tried changing my kernel but I'm not entirely sure what it is, and how it affects the phone. I'm not the smartest with phones, but I'm good with following directions and googling. If anybody can help me I'd greatly appreciate it cause I've been dealing with this issue for 3 months.
Reinstall the original firmware and make sure it doesn't freeze / crash with it and then you can reinstall the custom software. Make sure that you have the required recovery, bootloader, and baseband version to run the newer custom roms. The requirements should be located in the OP.
I appreciate the response. I will try this as soon as possible. Should i use odin to flash or would it be possible to use twrp recovery? Also, what do you mean when you say the requirements are in the OP?
You should use Odin to recover to make sure you have a fresh start.
The requirements of the rom you pick afterwards should be in the OP.

Mobile gets soft-bricked automatically...

Hi Friends...
I have a Micromax D303 android 4.4 mobile. There is a problem with it. It gets soft bricked automatically after some time. I have to reinstall the firmware to make it work again.
Here is its behavior:-
First of all, its launcher stops working (launcher 3). ERR:- "Unfortunately, the launcher has stopped working." Using Titanium backup, I saw that launcher freezes. Defrosting it didn't work. It remains froze. Slowly slowly, it happens to all the apps. And at last, a time comes when it becomes useless. It will reboot automatically and will be stuck on the logo. Then I flash the ROM and make it work. I only use its stock ROM.
What I have tried:-
1. I installed stock ROM but it stops working again after some time.
2. During the firmware installation, I have tried "format + download" option.
3. I usually root my mobile, but I have tried keeping it without root. Still, the problem happens.
4. I thought, there may be some Trojan Horse in my memory card. But, I have tried formatting it, changing it and even kept my mobile without it. But the problem persists.
This problem starts happening when I once tried to flash it with a custom ROM. I bricked my mobile. Then I repaired it by flashing stock ROM. After that, this problem starts happening. Sometimes, it happens after two months, sometimes, even after two days.
Can anyone have any guess about this? Any solution? Anyone?
By the way, this is my first thread. I am new here. Hoping to get nice first experience.
Thanks in advance!

Can't fix Bugged custom ROM

I have a Galaxy S III GT-I9300 I bought in 2014. After three years, I downloaded a custom ROM from xda-developers (android 4.3 is all I remember about it) and installed it successfully. It worked alright until one day when I wanted to sell the phone and a customer wanted to buy it on short notice, and I rushed to delete my files from the phone, but I destroyed the Android... I connected it to my laptop and shift-deleted some system files.... since then, the phone is delaying when trying to unlock (if i lock it now and try to unlock it a few times, it opens harder and harder), when I'm using apps it continously shows that some .com processess stopped working, and if I try to turn on the bluetooth, the phone instantly freezes and restarts itself.
I tried reinstalling two original ROMs, (version 4.1.2) successfully, but the data on the phone&the system problems remain the same.
I'd like to know how can I make a hard reset, meaning in deleting all the files&settings as it was brand new, just to clear everything, like clearing CMOS. I also think the recovery mode is damaged and I'd like to fix it somehow (if this is possible). The installation process I did for installing the custom ROM from XDA-devs was long and complicated, I had to do a lot of things... and I just want to get the phone fixed and restore to default (or even to fix bugs on this android version) its android, kernel & everything could be ,,reflashed''.
I'm willing to pay if someone helps me fix the problems and it really works. Thank you!
