I need help, my tablet is not working anymore. - Samsung Galaxy Tab E Questions & Answers

Can anyone tell me if the tablet's battery might be responsible for it restarting itself? For example I was using it with a custom rom, and until the moment everything was working normal, and suddenly it started to restart, just by opening an application it crashes and reboots, I already tried to install the stock rom and it got worse, I could not even leave the samsung logo. I was able to install TWRP, but every time I try to reinstall the stock rom before it even starts it hangs and restarts, it has reached a point that it hangs and shuts itself. (Backup from twrp).
My tablet is the model SM -T560, I was using LineageSo 14.1 from T561. If anyone knows anything I appreciate it. The reason for the doubt is because I already took another tablet to repair and according to the technician, that could be the reason, the system was crashing, but from what I researched it was a chronic defect so I did not perform the battery replacement. Now i don't have any money to bay a new battery, and the device became an expensive paperweight.
Help please.

Hello everyone, for those who are in a similar situation, in which the tablet can not open an application without it restarting, reinstalling the stock rom and it keeps crashing and restarting, tried everything via software and did nothing for nothing. The battery arrived today and I'm testing to see if the problem solved and so far everything seems okay, I hope I can help with something.

Fed up with my S4. Time to upgrade?

Hello.
I guess I am done with my S4(i9500). Too many strange problems since past one week.
So, I was on Halycon ROM and one fine morning, phone restarted and all apps started optimizing again. Ok no issues.
But now I noticed, whenever I restarted, 2-3 apps optimized everytime.
So did a clean flash and installed Cri5.
Now restored some apps and then 1 app optimizes on boot now. Is there a way to log which app is causing the problem?
There's one issue. Another issue is phone restarts randomly when gets up too hot and gets stuck on S4 boot screen. Have to remove battery and restart to boot it up..
Another issue is that the phone isn't being recognized by my PC. Tried Kies. Tried everything. I don't get the MTP menu when I connect the power cable.
Oh, and another issue, I guess my SD card is infected with a virus. Any recommended free antivirus for android?
Thanks if you could help me with one of the aforementioned problems.
Regards
Sounds like you need to flash back to stock in order to rid yourself of the software issues. If the issues are present on a stock ROM, it could be a hardware problem.

N910F stock crash and bootloop after 6.0.1 update

Hello people of the world,
after reading a lot of posts here I still can't fix my phone's issues, so I need to post. Bear with me...
I have an N910F which was entirely stock and functioning without problems. Two days ago I accepted the official update. After that, the phone regularly lost connection to the mobile net, froze, and restarted. It would work for a short while until it froze and restarted again and again. When I tried to use the camera, the live picture was completely distorted. The phone crashed and has then gone into a bootloop.
I pulled the battery, did a recovery start and wiped the cache. No difference. Factory recovery next, no difference.
I have since tried several stock and custom firmwares, always taking care to follow instructions and use the correct bootloaders, modems, etc. TWRP is working.
When I flash a stock firmware, it will go into a bootloop. With any custom ROM, it will crash during startup (logo) and switch off.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Protect the eMMC?
So, after more reading I began to suspect that the eMMC had moved on to the valhalla of electronics. Sent my phone to service where my suspicion was confirmed. Luckily, they were able to replace the chip without having to put in a new board.
Is there any way to prevent this kind of failure again, or at least make it less likely?
Yes this is a known issue after latest update you could you install only one application called wakelock so that your phone doesn't reboot and CPU keeps awake

Thanks! I had read about that.
Got my phone back from service today, they had flashed stock 5.0.1. After checking that it worked I flashed RR 5.8.4 and installed Wake Lock Powermanager. I searched for a comprehensive tutorial on what the settings do and which to use. Right now I set it to PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK (4) but I'd like to read more about it. Any tips on that?

installing power wakelock and setting up on partial wake lock is enough.if you get trouble in starting your phone remove its battery and put your phone in refrigerator for five min.and try to start your phone.this problem also related and happens after the latest update

Samsung Note 4 N910F is not stuck in bootloop, still doesn't really boot

Hey everyone,
I have been looking around online for several days now, but haven't been able to find a description of the problem I have with my n910f nor a solution.
When I got the phone it was stuck in bootloops and so I though it was soft bricked.
After I installed the custom rom and the latest version of TWRP via Odin, I thought that the problem was fixed, because the phone booted and I was able to start the configuration of Android (where it asks you for language, time zone etc.)
However, the phone turned itself off during this process. So I wiped everything and tried again, the same thing happened.
I then flashed it with Lineage, but it would turn itself off even before the logo appeared.
Then I flashed it with Ressurrection ROM, but again, the phone turns itself off during booting.
I can access download and recovery mode without any problems, I can flash roms and Odin works like a charm. I also used 2 different batteries.
Does anyone has an idea what I could try? Could it be the version of TWRP I am using (3.0.2.0)? Or is it a hardware issue?
Thank you!!
Hi, I have this exact same issue with my N910T and so far haven't found a solution to this. I really love my Note 4 so I'd like to know if this issue can be solved or not. I event went to a supposed repair shop and they couldn't figure out the problem, guess they weren't that good.
Sorry to hear this.
I have found issues that seemed similar, but not quite the same, and people hinted that it could be a worn out motherboard that is causing this top happen. But before I open up the phone (at the potential risk of breaking at least the screen) I would try everything else.
Or is there a way to test whether the motherboard is defective?
Its the plague of overheated, worn out emmc memories, sadly. Once it happen,the only way is a new/used motherboard,prefferably C model.
eMMC failure, snapdragon models are susceptible to this.

I suggest flashing stock rom with Odin after wiping your whole device in TWRP. I've had the same thing about 2 months ago.
Hey,
thank you for your responses. Yes, I read a lot about it being a motherboard problem.
I got it to work now thanks to this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/general/downgrade-official-mm-to-kitkat-t3383885
First nothing happened, but after I flashed Modem and the original Bootloader again (after installing the rom) the phone turned on and I was able to use it for a while (20mins maybe). Then suddenly it turned itself off and stayed on the "Samsung Galaxy" screen for a long time.
Apparently a lot of people are using Wakelock and it seems to be working for some of them, but that seems to defy the point somehow.

Which Stock Rom did you use exactly? Is your phone working fine?

my Mi Note is dead.

Hi everybody.
Dis morning I woke up and I realized that my phone was gone. I used AOSP Extendend ROM when it happens. At first, the rom completely froze. I thought it was a bug, so I rebooted the phone, but after did dis, the phone kept on rebooting and froze on first screen and I couldn't do anything. Touch didn't respond, nothing worked.
So I tried to go on recovety, but nothing.
At the end, I gave up about take back my data and try to install the stock ROM through MiFlash. I tried different stock ROM, but at the first they works, but during the installation guide they froze again and reboot. I can't even finish the setup!
So I tried again, unlock bootloader, flash TWRP, but still there:
- only TWRP v2.0 works, other versions won't start
- even with TWRP v2.0, after did wipe everything and format, when I tried to install a custom ROM, even TWRP froze and reboot the phone
- TWRP is pretty useless, it keeps on froze and when I boot recovery again, TWRP is locked and I have to format everything again, but still don't work.
Someone could tell me what happened to my phone? Any suggestions about what I could to to install something on my phone?
Pls help me, I am completely lost and disperate
You may in deed have a serious hardware problem.
What you can do without opening it up is to try charging it overnight, and see how it works tomorrow.
You have tried everything else you can think of, I assume, like wiping & formatting everything you can in TWRP, and possibly "repairing file system" if there is such an option.
The next thing I would try is opening it up and disconnecting the battery for a while, then connecting it again to see what happens.

Ok, I will listen your tip. Yeah, I have tried everything but nothing. Technically, I bought this phone last december, so it's still covered by warranty, but I have to send it to China, I would avoid that if I can.
I hoped there would be something that I didn't but...nothing.
Thanks anyway dude

my S7 edge is hard bricked

I had BlackDiamond.N8.PIE.V2.0 over a year on my phone and it was working with no problem.
today I decided to update my phone, first updated the TWRP to the latest version "TWRP-3.4.0-0-hero2lte" updated without any problem,
then I downloaded BlackDiamond N8 Port V10.0, wiped everything (even internal storage), and installed the ROM,
it installed successfully, wiped the caches, reboot to the system, android loaded without any issue,
after loading into android, I added my google account, and I was testing the phone, after 10min of working with the phone,
while I was testing the camera app (it's was a little laggy) my phone freezes and after a couple of seconds, the screen went black! I thought it's gonna reboot, but nothing happened.
I tried to hard reset the phone by pressing "power+volume down+home key", but it didn't work, connecting to the charger is nothing happen, there is no LED light, my phone is completely dead
does anyone have any idea why this happened? installation and booting to android was completely fine, everything worked fine, and suddenly my phone freeze and hard bricked.
you know this is not the first time I'm installing custom ROM, I'm done it before and I've always been careful, never had any issue like this, but this time really I don't know what happened and to be honest, I really love my S7 Edge, I don't want to replace it.

Possibly a hardware problem. You will have to take some technician for a more accurate analysis.

if it's hardware, why I didn't have any problem before updating the ROM? is it possible updating damaged the phone?
one more thing, I saw some people use a dongle called USB-JIG on dead Samsung phones, that enter phone to download mode and after that flashing with Odin.
do you think it's work on my phone?

It can occur, despite being very difficult. I already corrupted the xperia bootloader I had, but it never happened on my samsung devices. I even have a s7 edege and I am changing his rom and I never had any problems. As I said, you should take the device to an assistance center to get an idea of what really happened. Perhaps it could be a hidden problem, which was only expressed by changing the rom, or it could give the same problem with the old rom. What I can say is that a simple exchange of rom, would hardly cause a hard brick in a device.

You can also try, because if your device is not completely dead, it can come back to life with this procedure. But I still recommend taking the device in for a technical assistance.
There are 3 cases in this:
1. If you flashed a corrupted/wrong bootloader in twrp/flashfire or anything that doesn't blocks a wrong flash like odin. Your phone is dead for good. Only a usb jig/repair box or a local mobile technician can fix that.
2. Your phone is bugged with black screen. Installing a custom rom can cause weird things. Sometimes hard stuck with screen off/black .. now you need to wait for battery draining itself completely and then plugging in charger and trying to get in download mode. If you could go in download mode then you can reflash through odin and it will be back to normal. Although sudden turn off and then complete deadness is often a hardware failure.
3. If phone after draining completely doesn't shows life when connected to charger and can't go in dl mode then its either hardware failure or bootloader problem like in no.1 point. You will need to take it to a mobile repairer or use a repair box/jig nevertheless.
