Hi,
After updating to nougat I've been having random reboots while using the system, both in normal and safe mode. The phone turns on for a few seconds (about a minute, sometimes more, sometimes less. Usually when notifications appear), then reboots, and does that all the time.
I turned it on recovery mode and it doesn't turn off there. I was planning to do a factory reset but I am afraid that the phone turns off during the reset and doesn't work any more. Also, what does the "Run graphic test" option does? I know It may seem obvious but just to be sure if i can use in any way to solve the problem ir diagnose It.
Any recommendation on what to do?
Thanks in advance.
Since latest update in the reset menu there is an option to restart device automaticlly. Mayhe turned on somehow?
Aswell when I had the latest update it also rebooted 3 times about 5 minuts it booted back up. The update was over 400mb and some system app need a rebokt to setup. But if you do to much fast after a reboot it will wait and redo the progress. I suggest turn off and wait 5 minuts. Boot up and do it when u go to bed and plug it on the charger. Maybe it will work.

This happened a few days ago after attempting the OTA.
I left it for about 20 hours and no change, just looping the installing system update screen.
I let the battery drain (probably not a great idea) and then turned it on and it does the same thing.
I can sometimes get into fastboot mode but not consistently. I can get into download mode.
I can occasionally get to this screen, although I'm not sure how: i.imgur.com/g49Bbdw.jpg and after that finishes it just goes back to looping.
Is the only option to flash stock Android in download mode and lose all my data? (Although I'm not even sure I can do this because I haven't enabled USB debugging)
I hope not so thanks for any suggestions.
Cheers
hi...
I'm really desperate, my phone is suddenly dying and I have no idea why, I'll tell you from yesterday what has happened:
- I'm playing a stupid game and suddenly the screen goes black. No led, phone doesn't answer any button, nothing. I hold power button, nothing. Remove battery and put again, nothing. After some attempts phone turns on, but just after starting it reboots or stays frozen.
- I decide to change the rom (I had simpl rom), so I do a full wipe and put CM 12. It seems it works, but when I'm in the settings, at the beggining, I don't even have time to put the wifi, it starts rebooting again and/or not responding.
- Desperated, I install via odin the stock firmware from Sam Mobile. It seems it's gonna work, but when the dialog of "Android is upgrading -- Optimazitating app x of XX" it always gets stucked in a number, randomly. I never get to the 230 apps.
- As a last chance, I try Kies to install factory firmware. The same as before happens, but now it's only 17 the number of apps it tries to optimize.
These last 2 times, of course, I enter recovery from time to time (now the default one) and wipe cache partition.
My phone is agonizing, what the f is happening? Does anybody know what could happen?
Please help...
Hi guys,
Something strange is happening to my zenfone. When I want to switch it off, and I click the "power off" option my phone activates offline mode, then the screen just dimms instead of going full black. When I try to switch it on again, everything is okay except that my phone doesn't vibrate and goes straight to boot animation, there is no loading system circle, phone boots up in 3 seconds. I don't need to enter pin too. When I choose restart option everything goes as normal. Any help is appreciated

Its a common issue.
Just wipe everything from bootloader, like system, data,cache, then flash recovery.img from .44 update and then reboot to recovery and sideload the .54/.540 update.
everything will be fixed.
Me and my friend faced the same issue about a year and a half ago,and this fixed the issue.
What does 'sideload' mean? Sorry I am new here :v
So basically this rom is awesome but it had only one problem. When I plugged my phone in the charger while it was turned off, it bootlooped until I restarted with the cable off. It was no big deal and nothing bad ever came out of it.
Yesterday my batter ran out while I was asleep and when I woke up it was already turned off. I, absentmindly, tried to turn it on, LG Logo, off again. Did it one more time, nothing happened, realized it's out of battery. Plugged in charger, try to turn it off/on, usual bootloop happens. Say ok and proceed with what I always did, phone gets past LG Logo, goes into SlimLP boot animation and for the first it has just stayed there. No restarts, just endless loading. Longest i Left it on to load was about 45 minutes. Never got back on.
Apart from that, I think that for some reason my recovery got uninstalled somehow, by itself, a few weeks ago. I only noticed this because before, when I wanted to get into recovery, I pressed the usual buttons and it went straight into TWRP. Now the same buttons take me to the "Factory reset screen". I know that everyone says to just go ahead and press power, but I am afraid, since I am not sure if TWRP is still functioning. This happened to me another time on the same phone, and when I confirmed the factory reset, it factory resetted.
My problem here is that I want to get my music and photos. I'm only able to enter that factory reset screen and download mode. Can I "flash" twrp safely from download mode? Should I use Flash Tool 2014 and Normal flash(which says it keeps the data) a stock g2 rom? Can I mount my phone to the computer in download mode to copy my files? I want the most risk-free approach.
Thanks in advance.

Hi, first If you can enter download mode I think you can flash kdz (Kitkat) file to stock using Flash Tool 2014. But I had this problem once and the keep data flashing didn't work (stucked at 50%), I ended up flashed it with other option (erased all data).
2. You can try the "Factory reset" nice and easy.
I think you can't see files on the device unless you enter Twrp.
It's wise to backup your phone on the computer montly or so, thank you.
I went ahead and nuked my download mode using the SRK tools. Then got access to fastboot, through which I booted to twrp and then I could move my files. All's fine, flashed my ROM again and it's going better than ever.
So for a few weeks now, my phone has been having bootloop issues. I've been trying to fix it on my own, but no luck so far.
I can get it into download mode. Up until I tried to restore it to its stock version via the User Tool, I could get it to the factory reset options, which led to the options to wipe cache, reboot, etc. However, none of those options worked. When I attempted to reset to factory settings, I got the "dead" green android with the red triangle. Then the screen goes black and starts bootlooping again.
Once in awhile I can manage to turn it on after having it turned off for hours, or even days and it works like normal, except that if I lock it or turn it off it will end up restarting and starting to bootloop again. Which is bad seeing as it drains somewhat fast due to being overheated while having the screen constantly on.
As for my experience trying to use update recovery, it gets to the downloading part then stops and gives me this message "[011.700.147.062.092]??? ??? ? ? ????". I don't even know if I am using the correct stock rom for my phone, since I only know its MEID and model name.
do u resolved this, i have the same problem
