[Q] Random reboots when rooted... I give up! - Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a rooted 12.2. I was reading another thread that random reboots occur when installing SuperSU and not having it disable Knox. I did the reinstall of SuperSU, but I wasn't prompted if I wanted to have it disable Knox or not (unlike the first time I installed it). Anyway, I really dislike the random reboots because it kills the battery. Can someone advise how I can get SuperSU to ask me about disabling Knox?
Or... show me where to download the stock firmware for a USA Galaxy Note Pro 12.2? Or would a factory reset through the Recovery (Home+Volume Up+Power) unroot and bring me back to regular stock? Thank you so much.

I had the same problem.
But it was gone when i installed the Xposed framework, and the Wanam Xposed add-on.
There is an option in the expirimental options to fix the random reboots.
There is also an other add-on for Xposed called the Samsung Kitkat SystemServer Crash Fix.
More info about that is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/samsung-kitkat-systemserver-crash-fix-t2806046

After I deleted all the Knox apps my random rebooting quit.

What Knox apps are there? I didn't download any. What did you use to remove them?
On the sidenote, I seemed to have borked my root by trying to uninstall SuperSU (it hanged) and I did a hard reset. Now I need to find the binary... Assistance greatly appreciated! Or would it be easier to do a factory reset and start from the beginning?

I installed both of which you mentioned. By experimental options, do you mean: Disable resource hooks? If not, I don't see the option... Thank you for your help!

Okay, cool. I think I am able to avoid reboots now!
For those who have issues... I installed SSCF Xposed, Xposed Installer, and Wanam Kit. Now I just get notifications when crashes are avoided (which I can hide from now on).
Seems like it would be a lot easier to uninstall the Knox program(s), but I don't know what those are.
Thanks for everyone's help!

Drat. It reboot on me this morning. I had it plugged in from charging overnight and I flipped my screen cover open to wake it up and it froze and rebooted.
Anyone have any tips? I would flash the stock USA rom and start from scratch if I could find the rom. Would a factory reset from recovery mode bring me back to stock pre-SU? Should I have SuperSU close root before doing a factory reset? Thanks.

Hello, I solved by deleting the Knox files that are located in some folders of /system.

Thanks, I'll try that if I still get the reboots. Last night I did a factory reset and was able to get the prompt for SuperSU to ask about disabling Knox (which I hit cancel). So far no reboots. I'll be slowly building my app collection to see if it may be related to an app.

Well, did it work? I am having the same issue and I am not sure if I should go back to stock and not disable Knox with SuperSU or I should remove Knox all together. This is driving me batty. Thanks in advance.

I have a Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 rooted with Chainfire stock rom. I started getting random reboots soon after root and yes I did select yes when super su asked to disable knox. Never had a problem with this on a Note 4, S5, or Note 8.
I tried most of what everyone has discussed except re-flash and factory reset. I also uninstalled super su, enabled knox, re-installed super su. But this time super su did not ask to disable knox.
Re-enabling knox did not stop it. I installed xposed server crash tool and got the following in xposed logs when it would prevent a crash:
0:com.sec.knox.seandroid/1000
I then used terminal emulator to disable:
Su [enter] (this brings up super su authorization window, select enable)
PM disable com.sec.knox.seandroid [enter]
You can also disable in settings > security > device administrators > uncheck knox
This did not work, I was still getting the same crash report. So I decided to completely remove knox, not just disable it since there are several modules that work with the knox app.
I used System App Safe Remover for rooted to remove. It backs the files up on your SD card versus just delete so you can later restore if necessary.
com.sec.enterprise.knox.attestation
com.sec.knox.eventsmanager
KLMS Agent
KNOX
Knox Notification Manager
KNOX Store
Select these files and unistall them.
Reboot and you are done.
Now, no more random reboots. I hope this works for you.

hey there, i Thought i was the only one. when my battery is bellow 30% the tablet begins to constantly reboot after the samsung logo logo. i found that it only happens when is on battery because i do heavy multitasking tests with the charger plugged and works perfectly, but a simple app when in battery makes the device crash. also found a perfect app to make the tablet crash and it is camera fv-5 (when in battery and bellow 30%), currently using ver 2.68. has anybody the same problem. did you fix it tykenicol?

You can try this: add some thing thick like paper on top of the battery connector and secure it with a tape. A direct pressure from the rear cover to the battery connector stops the problem, then you have a cracked solders of battery connector. A simple re solder this connector will fix your problem.

Xsposed warning

I thought I'd just stick this up here as a little warning to others. I have a N9005, stock rom but rooted with cf autoroot. Had phone a month with no issues what so ever, 3 days ago I decided to put xsposed on there and find some some modules. Before I found any I got a warning saying sd card umounted so decided to try sort that out. I then quickly found out the power button had gained a 5 second delay from press to any responses. Next the dialer keeps freezing and when I'm on a call the proximity sensor won't turn the screen back on for 10 seconds after I move phone away from my head. Most annoying of all is the clock app has just totally derpt. Got no alarm clock at all and clock widget keeps saying I'm in Israel!! The sd card seams to be totally dead as neither my sensation, G nexus or pc will read it now and my backups are on it so I guess today's job is finding stock rom and starting from scratch again.
All this may just only happen to me but I thought I'd put it out there as a little warning

I have been using xposed for about a month since i got my Note 3. Never had any issues. So this happened even before you installed any modules?
Well xposed had been known to be tricky. Most times it works, sometimes it messes up and sometimes it gets you into a boot loop.
Yeah, was scrolling through the modules to download when the sd warning came on and all the other problems have since followed. Just want to note that I haven't installed anything else since Xposed and had no issues before installing
You installed the latest xposed version right? The previous ones are not compatible with 4.3. I've been using it with no problems.

Yeah, the latest version. What is really confusing me is why it's getting my location as Israel constantly. Doesn't matter if I'm on wifi or 4G

The next logical question would be - Have you tried uninstalling it to see if the issues go away? If they do go away, try reinstalling it and see if you experience the same thing.
I've been using Xposed with the Wanam module and don't have any issues.
Have uninsulated. Made no difference. Factory reset made no difference either. Just had a full wipe and flashed clean stock rom. Will see how that does then will know if all is fixed
Ive had similar issues with xposed myself
~hy from germany~
Not all Xposed module is working in every phone.
You should name which Xposed framework module give you problem.
So far I using Xposed framework till now fine and not much issue.
I only use few module:
App Settings - 100% working.
Wanam Xposed - theming is working, hide smart stay, blocking mode and etc is working but not all example center clock not working since MJ6 firmware as it will give you FC after end call.
Instagram Downloader - 100% working.

It's simple. Your device is hacked by mossad.
Just to say, after a full wipe and clean flash back to stock rom all is normal again. I'm guessing just got unlucky with xposed this time. Not sure if I'll be in any rush to try again for a little while
I have xposed with a lot of modules, but xblast and 3 dot menu modules cause troubles, screen freezes and ui stops working
Mine, if this helps anyone (I've never had any problems):
App Settings
Boot Manager (Amazing)
Disable Clear Defaults Dialog
GravityBox (I disabled for messing something up - tread carefully)
GreenYoutube
NotificationMod
NotifyClean (Amazing)
Per App Hacking
Play Store Fixes
ReceiverStop (Amazing)
Tinted Status Bar (Great)
Wanam Exposed
XBatteryThemer
XBlast Tools (Great, but tread carefully)
XHaloFloatingWindow (I've not managed to get working)

What is the make of the SD card that failed? Was it SanDisk?

[Q] Screen is not showing up in battery history

Hello guys,
I've got a problem with my 'screen'. If i go to Settings > Battery there is no 'screen' so I cant see for how long my screen has been on. I couldnt find a good answer with google. On XDA there is also only one thread about this problem with no answer. I'm running a Nexus 5 stock 4.4.4 with Root & Xposed.
Things I've done trying to fix it:
* Wiped Cache and Dalvik Cache
* Wiped batterystats
* Plug in and out charger
Is there any option I have forgotten? I dont want to do a full factory reset. Don't blame me for my English please, it's not my nativ language.
Edit:
Did a full recharge and suddenly 'Screen' appeared. Anyone knows why?
Are you using any theme? Or are you using any xposed modules which might affect it? Install gsam monitor and see whether the screen time is recorded over there or not.

Very difficult to judge the culprit over here. Uninstall all modules, reboot and see if the screen shows up? If it still doesn't install Gsam battery monitor to see the screen on time if you don't want to reset.
If you're just worried about your /sdcard data then flashing a stock rooted 4.4.4 rom won't wipe it at all. Give it a try.

Fix reboot/crash problem after ng6 root

Hi guys, I posted this elsewhere, but hopefully this helps everybody.
After rooting my Verizon SCH-I545 on NG6(I545VRUFNG6), I experienced tons of random crash/reboot issues, and finally found a solution last night!
This requires Xposed Framework to work of course.
Download the Xposed Module- "Samsung KitKat systemserver crash fix". It says it's for a different version but it has stopped every crash/reboot and I'm on the Verizon NG6 update.
The processes that are causing the crash/reboot are the 7 Knox processes. If you would like to remove these, backup your phone, then uninstall all Knox processes with an app like Titanium Backup or a similar app that can delete system apps.
Links:
"Samsung KitKat Systemserver Crash Fix" -http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/samsung-kitkat-systemserver-crash-fix-t2806046
Repo Link- goo.gl/K4Po6Y
Download Xposed Framework- http://dl.xposed.info/latest.apk
Big thanks to @thomashofmann for the module.
This is my first thread, so let me know what you think!
Sent from my SCH-I545 using XDA Free mobile app
Any idea how to read the log file, or where it's at. I got two notifications that it stopped the phone from rebooting/crashing. It said it had to do with a Knox process.
Here's the notification.
There is a log feature in Xposed, and you'd just have to look for the details that the notification gave.
Another suggestion for fixing the reboots is to freeze the processes that are causing the crashes, since most of them are Knox related processes.

Freezing is not enough! You must deinstall all seven Knox pieces.

Same here. If the reboots are gone I'll let you know tomorrow.
I tried this fix and it seems to help. Three 'modules' appear to still be failing but the patch is at least keeping the fone from rebooting. Can provide additional details (log file) if it would help anyone?
It work for me.... Thw xposed module and delete knox apks from system priv app and then unistall knox apps with root unistaller....
Deleted the 7 knox apps and one com.sec.knox..... also. This has got rid of all reboots.
Used Titanium Backup to delete them.

S4 i545
-I updated the OTA NG6 and experienced the random reboots.
-Emailed the Verizon regional President, rcvd callback within hours, they verified I did the FRB so sent me another phone (Factory Refurb).
-Phone arrived with NC5, s I did the OTA again and got the same random reboots.
-Did the ODIN NC5 kernel. Towelroot, Odin NG6 krenel rooting process successfully.
-installed Titanium Backup, FROZE all files having KNOX.
-So far random reboots have stopped.
Thank you Verizon Executive office of the President Eastern states, but the problem seems very clearly associated with the KNOX software...
This was exactly what I did with the exception of getting a new phone. I froze all Knox apps, but continued to get reboots. Odin back to NC5, root, and has been fine for a week.

Freezing them doesn't work as you found out. If you delete them the reboots go away.
Wrong post sorry
Could someone please list the 7 Knox files to remove in NoBloat? I went through the whole process last week and after deleting every file with "Knox" in it my device was bricked. I had to flash a stock version of NC5 to get it running again, but now Verizon is forcing me to update.

Thanks! I uninstalled exactly as shown in Titanium Backup, powered down, powered back up, and no problems to be seen. I hope it stays that way
My first attempt must have bricked my phone because I just deleted a bunch of files, rather than uninstalling the actual apps. But thanks to the interwebs, I don't have to buy a new phone. Suck on that Verizon/Samsung.
Will simply deleting the KNOX apps in TI backup work or will I need to use the xposed fix as well? I don't have the ability to run nandroid so I got nervous at the prompt xposed gave stating that the device may not boot after it is installed.

Reboots all the time since the latest OTA update

I've just received an OTA for my P900 (bought in UK, completely stock, not rooted, P900.XXUANI1). Since then the tablet has been rebooting randomly several times a day. It's a funny sort of reboot where the tablet is back up and running almost instantly, not like on a usual startup. The screen goest black, the "Samsung" logo flashes for a half a second and it's back at the lockscreen. No blue-lines-logo animation that goes with a usual startup, but all the apps I was using are closed and the recent apps list is empty.
Is anyone having the same problems? Any ideas on how to fix this?
You can try a factory reset.

I know I probably should after an update anyway, but I'd hate to have to set up the tablet all over again, so I'll give it a few more days. I was wondering if anyone came accross this problem and found a different solution. Some people mentioned their ATT version crashing and how un-disabling an app has fixed it. I don't have an app called My Magazines though, so that's no good. I have a bunch of apps disabled though. Could any of them cause such funny behaviour?
I think it is a problem on several firmwares, and the devices are rooted.
I fixed it using the Xposed Framework and the Wanam addon.
Or you can try the http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/samsung-kitkat-systemserver-crash-fix-t2806046 add-on.
Thanks, this seems to be it. It looks like I'll be rooting my tablet when I get home today I should have done it ages ago anyway, if only to set the desktop user agent in the browser and get rid of adds.

Thank you so much, you just saved me a trip to the service centre. I've followed through with the first three steps and it booted back into the system I wish I could give you more than one "Thanks".
I don't have time to go through the rest of the steps today since I still have some stuff to do for work, but if the tablet keeps "rebooting" I'll be back in a few days to root and report how it went with the Xposed module.
BTW, I haven't been able to find the file "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-v1awifi.img.tar" the guide mentions as no. 4, and no other twrp version for P900 (only P905) on their site. Do you maybe have a link for that?
And big thanks again!

I'm also at work so I'm not at my computer. I think I found that file by doing a Google search for it. Yes, let me know if it keeps rebooting. I have my own tablet rebooting issues (as you can see in one of the other threads, heh). I lost my root by reinstalling SuperSU one too many times... I blame it on trying to change settings before reinstalling because I was trying to achieve something.

I tried googling, but like I said, the official TWRP site did not have a file for p900, only p905. Here's the list of all the supported devices on their site, I only see p905 and 3g variants.
Then there's this site. I didn't realize that "v1awifi" is the part that refers to p900. I'm going to use the latest version from here today and try to get root again. If I succeed, I'll then try the Xposed package. I only had three reboots in the last 24 hours though (which is much less than before my first root attempt), so it might be a while before I can be certain the reboots are gone.
EDIT: I rooted in a few minutes without a single problem. Xposed and module installed, starting the clock for reboot-watch now I'll report back immediately if I get a reboot, or in 24h if I don't.
EDIT2: It looks like Xposed with the Samsung SystemServer Crash Fix works. The app posts notifications when a crash is prevented, and I've just had three in the last hour, with no crashes.
Best of luck. I tried that Xposed and Wanam module combo and it seemed to work for most crashes. However, I still get reboots when I wake it up from sleep after a full charge (from my experience).

Try the other app, the SystemServer Crash Fix. I've just charged up my tablet for the day, and when I woke it up while still plugged in, I got a crash notification. I've also had a few more yesterday. So far, not a single crash, it worked every time.

I also installed the System Server Crash Fix, but it didn't prevent the reboot. Hopefully it works for you!
I purchased Titanium Backup and froze all the Knox related processes and apps, but I still got a reboot. So, I just did a factory wipe on the tablet and rerooted. This time it prompted me and asked about disabling Knox. This time I chose cancel instead of disable. Crossing my fingers now. If I still see a reboot tomorrow morning I will probably forget about rooting my tablet.

Just adding in. The SystemServer Crash Fix is an Xposed module why you also need to install the Xposed Installer. First validate Xposed, then the crash fix app, finally reboot and you're done. Finally, just pray that your issues are gone...

I went halfway between your approaches. I chose to disable Knox when asked, but I did not freeze any of the apps with Knox in the name in TB. First, I reset the default apps settings and then used TB to freeze a bunch of bloatware, but nothing with Knox in the name. The only such app currently frozen is Knox Notification Manager 1.0. Also, I never installed Wanam module, just SSCF.

I've just received an OTA for my P900 (bought in UK, completely stock, not rooted, P900.XXUANI1). Since then the tablet has been rebooting randomly several times a day. It's a funny sort of reboot where the tablet is back up and running almost instantly, not like on a usual startup. The screen goest black, the "Samsung" logo flashes for a half a second and it's back at the lockscreen. No blue-lines-logo animation that goes with a usual startup, but all the apps I was using are closed and the recent apps list is empty.
Is anyone having the same problems? Any ideas on how to fix this?

I have the same problem, since I upgrade my T900, I have the same behavior you described.
Read a lot and tried everything, even Xposed Installer. Nothing corrected it.
I didn't test this firmware version it without root (can't live without it!).
If what you said that you have the random reboot without root, I really think that this firmware release is buggy.
I will now return to the previous firmware.

There's no doubt that Samsung is at fault. My tablet was stock, unrooted, in no way modified, and it still crashed several times every hour, usually when screen timed off and was turned on again, but also on other occasions. I would flash an older version too, but then I might have to do a clean install and set it up again, so I tried root + Xposed + SSCF first, and fortunately it worked. With the added benefit of Desktop User Agent in Chrome, no ads and a much snappier tablet. I should have rooted months ago

I installed the SystemserverCrash Fix app first, then the Xposed Installer... is that why it didn't work for me? Thanks in advance.

Which app did you use for no ads? Adblock Plus and Adaway didn't seem to work for me...

Adblock Plus version 1.2.1.325 works fine for me. It allows some unobtrusive ads through by default. If you want to block all you can, but you have to manually enable it in app settings.
If a particular app is still showing ads it sometimes helps to clear the cache.

You could always try installing them the right way round to see if it will make a difference. I think I installed both apps at the same time, but then I opened Xposed, activated it, rebooted the tablet, then activated the module (which showed up in Xposed automatically, IIRC).
First, you should double-check that the SSCF is activated in Xposed, if it is not, it won't stop the crashes.

[Q] short random small reboots (soft boots)

Hello everyone,
Here is my problem: yesterday i have rooted my note pro 12.2 SM-P900 running android 4.4.2 XXUANI1 . It has been doing small reboots randomly and very often like 5 times each 20 minutes. I did not have tis problem before the rooting . My first reboot happened when i used GMD gestures controls at first i thought it was it but it is still happening long after i've uninstalled it.
I followed this tutorial for the rooting : link not allowed until messages on this thread so rooted with odin and cf auto root
I'd like to avoid to backup everything or flashing but if it's the only solution i'll do it
Thank you
Did you freeze Knox?
Cheers,
Russ

Yes i think so it was when i first launched super su when it asked me about it. shoul i undo that ?
Freezing Knox is not something you do with SuperSU. You need a tool like Titanium Backup or System Tuner Pro.

hi again,
Alright so i think super su made me uninstall it . should i try reinstalling it ? i don't really understand what makes it reboot. i'm going to look for a solution and search around about knox properties and failures. maybe i should a bloatware app. Do you have any other clue where it could come from ?
By the way i also have a rooted note 3 and i never had a problem with it.
Thank you
Re edit: so i have installed titanium and then i followed a tutorial and i frozed knox and it's dependencies. I am waiting to see if that worked. Also a new problem appeared when i installed Xposed installer my device couldn't rotate the screen upside down but it could do the left and right rotation. It's working fine again once i've uninstalled it and once again i have no freakin clue what is doing that i have the feeling that touchwiz is messing something up ...
As long as it is right-side-up (i.e., Samsung name at the top) then why should you care if you can't use it upside down?
Cheers,
Russ

Go in Wanem Xposed->System and check Enable all rotation angles.
