Hi all, I have had my galaxy s4 I9500 for 4 weeks now and running completely on stock rom I9500UBUAMDK. Only recently I have been having problems with the phone rebooting 3-4 times a day in my pocket! This is getting very frustrating and need an urgent fix! I have already factory reset the phone and there's no warranty as I purchased my phone online and unlocked. If anyone else is having the same problem or could give me advice, please share. Thanks!
There is a known problem , with too many apps open, and when camera is launched, the phone will reboot.

i dont know what to do!!
i have no idea about flashing or rooting or bricking or whatever
plz help me out!
got this cell from my pocket money!!
Check your battery, but it shouldn't be issue if phone actually starts. I recommended you to read about flashing and install new soft. Maybe you just overused it.

Relax bro, its all right as of now. Try the following then we will see what to do
1. Try to do a factory reset.
2. Try to remove SD Card and then use phone for few hours without it.
3. If Any of the above solves your issue, then post here, else I would strongly suggest you to Flash a Stock ROM. You can contact me if you don,t know how.
Since you are from bangalore, so I am assuming you have a I5801 with Android 2.1 installed by default. Also post if you updated the firmware using KIES?
For the time being, cheer up as our Galaxy 3 is not frail

Yes i will second haree....in warranty period, if you havent made changes to your ROM, you should get it back to service centre and ask them do a proper repair, you can also tell them its a persistent problem. My apologies for not mentioning this as the 1st step above. Thank you haree

Hi
What do you mean?
Flash the same way as we flash roms?
Coz I would be in download mode, so how come can I have apps running?
Even I need i5801 during boot, as I dropped my cell in water, its working fine now but I can't hear during a call or play a song (I mean things are not audible & so I need to contact Samsung care center) so need either ddjp2 wid bootloader or the file you provided.
Thanks in advanced.

some users report that it worked (i doubt since efs partition is not included in the firmware)

I9500 sold in Qatar are coming from UAE (if not mistaken). to be sure connect to Kies and see what are the last (3 letters) under phone firmware. i think it is (XSG).

Hey mate ! Thanks for the reply , I tried reseting to factory settings , wiping cache and flashing other firmwares , different firmwares cause different issues like screen freezes , crashes etc. This one just makes the s4 turn off sometimes while being locked.
It's not from any apps as long as it's nothing stock related ( I do use S Health and the likes )

What is the purpose of installing a firmware and then resetting the device ? I've never reset after I flashed a firmware I think
I have found a way to reproduce this!
It happens MOSTLY when I unplug it from the usb cord and lock it (by pressing the button ) after leaving it locked for 5 minutes 'ish
Any help guys ? please , I don't want to have to send it to the shop where they'll keep it for 2-3 weeks...
EDIT : Also I wanted to ask , did I void my warranty by flashing firmwares for the i9500 from sammobile.com ? (I did no rooting , only stock firmwares)

B4 this new update u must be having a old update and after u flashing a new update also all the data remains same in the phone and that the main reason you are having this issue
If u reset the device all the file folders apps will be reset to work with new update u will not regret if u do this trust me

I had the similar issue on my note 2 after installing a MIUI rom which was posted and in that case the moment i click LOCK button it used to get stuck / powerr off
and the issue was later solved by flashing a rescue firmware.. was something related to kernal which caused that issue
Does not matter which firmware u had b4 u can still flash 2 /3 diffrnt firmware which are stock and do reset after flashing u will get rid of this issue for sure
And if that also does not wrk then there myte be a hardware issue i hope thats not the case
I think I need some help , I've sent it to the service and the guy told me the fact that the phone freezes and reboots itself on it's own a few times a day is "normal" lol , what the hell? He said he'll fix the shutdown issue but the freezing+rebooting will have to be with me until newer firmwares get released

I have the same i9500 running the same Emirates firmware and I'm at 90% percent sure that your battery's serial number starts by "BD.." these batteries are swollen and one of the symptoms of having a defective battery is the random reboot loops like the one's you're having. I happen to have a drfective battery on my i9500 baught from the United Emirates however I live in Tunisia and Samsjng refused to replace it for free saying that the warranty isn't international... So can you tell us what did you do?

First Charge your battery , your device wont be able to charge it but you have to charge using another A5 or any other way and then you have to try again to enter download mode. without battery you cannot do anything.

Thank you for all..
Hi! I think they can't verify if you have root your phone because the phone won't turn on, they don't have access to Download Mode to see if KNOX is triggered. So, Just send your phone to Samsung and wait... :fingercrossed: I think your motherboard is died.
Also, you may try to press the power button for 15 seconds at least

Normally, it's not good to downgrade your firmware. iPhone is different
I think you should send your phone to Samsung and they'll replace it. Don't Worry

You need to use debrick image to unbrick your phone. Get it from someone who has same device as you.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have seen videos for galaxy s4 and s3 but can't find one for our a5.
Bro, you need to run commands in terminal emulator. Google it, you will find it.
