[Q] I need help! - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 from Sprint, which I rooted a couple of months ago and I haven't any problems with it until this morning. I woke and saw that sometime through the night my phone had rebooted and it was stuck on the Sprint logo screen. Naturally I took the battery out and tried restarting it. When it boots it goes through the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 logo screen, the the samsung logo scree, then sprint logo screen. It will stay on the sprint logo scree for a while then reboot. That will happen about three times then after that it won't reboot and just stay on the sprint logo screen. I've been looking all over the net on what to do and came up with nothing. Can anyone help me?

Check for the things you have made with it in the last few days

I have honestly done nothing to it but get on snapchat and text message. It doesn't boot fully for me to do anything to it.

Its not good to rooted it, it will void the warranty. The note 3 itself has tons of features. Try to hard reset the phone. When Power off press and hold power, home and vol up down key. It will go to hard reset booting screen. Or google it. It will wipe out all data and go back to factory reset condition. From setting Factory reset will not help I think.
If this doesn’t work try reinstalling the firmware.

IMHO is more likely a hardware problem with the emmc (flash memory).
You might also want to ask on the specific Sprint Note 3 forum:

Samsung Focus hangs at logo.

I updated to mango a few days ago, and today my phone randomly turned off, and now it hangs at the samsung logo. The only way to power on the device is to remove and slip in the battery. Also, I've tried all soft and hard resets, formatting, nothing works. Never had an SD card, had the Focus for 2 months.

Something must've gone wrong. Something similar happened to me, you can try re-flashing (that also means you have to start from scratch: reinstall every app and make sure you sync ALL your media).
Read my story here.
Wanted to bump a thread since I have a similar problem. I attempted to run the CAB uploaded with the latest OEM updates for the Focus. The phone went into download mode, uploaded the cabs. Once it rebooted it started flashing the Samsung logo, 2 seconds, Samsung logo again.
The download mode flashed quickly and resets back to the Samsung logo. I suspect something went bad with the bootloaded/etc. Since I can't get into download mode with the key combo (the screen flashes triangle for split second and resets), would getting a JIG help at all in this scenario? Or should I consider selling it for scrap?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
I don't think it's the bootloader.
You should try the jig, it's just a few bucks.
Sounds like a plan, does any Samsung microusb JIG work for this purpose? Almost all the ones one ebay state Galaxy series, etc.
I bought one for Galaxy S (I9000) and it did the job. There are also a few how-tos with cables and resistors on the forum, if you search, but I'd go for the jig, it's a few bucks...
Well, the JIG didn't work. It flashed the Samsung logo for a second and then resets, the cycle repeats endlessly. I guess its time to put it up for parts of fleabay. Sad
Thanks for the help though.

Sprint S4 wont boot up, in any mode

I was headed home today and my Sprint Galaxy S4 shutoff. It would not come back on, so i removed the battery. When i reinsert the battery, my phone does a quick vibrate, then the white Samsung Galaxy S4 logo screen appears, then disappears, then thats it. Nothing else happens. I have tried different chargers, a different battery, tried download and recovery mode. Nothing has worked so far to get me any further. When i try to go into recovery, blue writing shows in the top left that says Booting Recovery, then it shuts off and nothing else happens. When i plug into a computer, the phone does not connect to the computer.
I am usually pretty good with anything to do with a phone, but this has me stumped.
I have not downloaded any new apps or any different roms or kernels anytime recently. My phone is rooted but still on the stock rom. This phone was rooted about a year ago when i got it, and as far as roms or programming or anthing, nothing has been done to it since then.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Ok so i was wrong, the phone will boot into download mode, but only for about 2 secs, then it goes blank and off again. So it seems like some sort of power issue with the phone itself, as in hardware. Not sure that there is too much that i can do about that, but does anyone have any ideas?
I just read something on here about Samsung having a bad batch of batteries. If I were you I would take my battery to someone that could test it to see if it is holding a charge.
Had the same issue. The dude at sprint said it was a bad update that went out but not sure how true that is due to the fact that i was running a custom rom and recovery. I was running clockword mod recovery and latest CM11 nightly. If you have the insurance I'd say bring it back and they should replace it.
Any fix?
I have just been experiencing this problem as well. My s4 was working fine then all of the sudden the power button would become very sensitive and would think I would want to turn the phone off. I would click the back arrow but the phone would still either turn itself off or reboot. Then it got worse and would get stuck in bootloops. Now I have to reinsert the battery every time for it to turn on. It gets to the samsung logo and then shuts off. I can get into recovery for about 2 seconds and then it shuts off as well. My s4 is not rooted at all. Can someone please help me? I really don't want to pay at least 70 dollars for samsung just to look at it.:crying:

[Q] Galaxy Note 3 Display Stuck At Boot

So, having loved my Note 3 for a long time, I am actually surprised- I have no clue how to fix this issue. When I turn the phone on, it appears as if it is stuck at the "Galaxy Note 3" logo- but you can see from the LEDs and hear from the speakers, the system has started and is running. My notifications and everything come through, but the screen continues to sit at the Galaxy Note 3 screen. Please, please help! How do I fix this issue?

Galaxy S4 Stuck at AT&T Logo

Hi all. I have a rooted Galaxy S4 which, until recently, worked like a charm. Recently when I go to reboot, the phone does it's cycle, all the way down to the dimmed AT&T logo, but simply doesn't get to the lock screen.
2 days ago when I had this issue, on one occasion I put my phone in my pocket and about 5 minutes later I took it out and to my surprise it was on my lock screen.
Today, it ran out of battery and such, I haven't had such lucky flukes. I tried wiping the cache partition, taking out SD/SIM cards, trying to clear debris from the power button, etc. but nothing seems to work.
One particular thing I noticed while researching is that most people get stuck on the "SAMSUNG" logo, while I'm on the AT&T Logo. After being stuck on the AT&T logo for a while, pressing the power button causes the phone to vibrate for a little, and pressing it successively causes the phone to vibrate successively.
I know a factory reset will fix it, but I really don't feel like losing /all/ of my data.
Besides hoping for that lucky fluke again, I really don't know what to do. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
This was posted in the wrong location. It needed to be posted in the AT&T Galaxy S4 forums, not the International S4 forum. The people in the AT&T forums will be better able to assist you than we will.
The moderators will soon move this thread from the I9505 S4 forums to the AT&T S4 forums. In the meantime, take a look in the AT&T S4 forums as your question may have already been answered.

GT-I9505 Turns off at the samsung logo [Solved]

Hello
I have a GT-I9505 which has served me well for the past year. It has had a plethora of custom roms installed and has constantly been rooted. However, today it randomly turned off after getting slow. I spent a couple of minutes trying to turn it on with the button, with no successful result. I then removed the battery and placed it back in. The phone then vibrated and turned on, before turning off after two seconds on the "Samsung galaxy S4" Splash screen. It also turns off when booting into recovery and download mode. I haven't changed the ROM in roughly a week and I'm left puzzled as to where this strange phenomenon is coming from.
If anyone had any advice, it would be highly appreciated. I will be open to all suggestions, but I'm afraid that I will have to replace the mainboard of the phone to see if it's a hardware problem.
Regards
Gynganynja
Edit: Fixed it. Turns out it actually was just a stuck power button, even though the button felt normal and I haven't had an sticking or locking issues. A couple of hits against my desk solved it
