Hi,
I hope I'm posting this to the right thread.
I have an LG G3 International D855 model and lately I've been getting random freezes with crashes with every ROM I try and nothing seems to fix it. I tried 3 different ROMs, factory reset, cleaning the SIM tray, cleaning the battery contacts, everything I can think of. I'm still getting this and it is very annoying, the phone is basically unusable, since I have no signal 60% of the time and phone keeps crashing.
As I'm writing this, my SIM actually got detected, but after I went and searched for Network providers 3 times, it crashed every time.
It also crashes randomly while using the phone, but overheating seems not to be the problem, since it sometimes crashes even when cool and didn't crash when I stress tested the phone. The battery output is also 3.8V, as it should be.
What is the problem here?

My gf recently bought a Charge an has been getting doubles and sometimes tripled incoming messages. I thought it may just be an issue with the stock app so I installed Handcent and began playing with its settings to try and prevent the issue. So far there has been no luck on my end so I opened a ticket with Verizon which has also been unsuccessful. Thinking maybe it was a phone issue we swapped it for another charge , but have the same issue. Through my searching I've seen that there are alot of folks with this issue on both the Charge and the Thunderbolt, and folks have had varying degrees of success with multiple methods. I've tried every method I've seen so far with no luck. The issue appears to be intermittent since it does not happen with every message, however it does happen very frequently. If anyone has any suggestion I'd be very appreciative. I really don't want to have to spend $100 more to get the Bionic to remove this issue, since I do want to stay with a dual-core LTE device on VZW. Thanks.

Sounds like a network issue. Does it happen with different senders?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk
Yes, so far it is happening with all senders at different times. I was thinking it was nnetworrelated myself. Now that you mention it though I wonder if it has to ddo with LTE not being up yet here. Its scheduled to launch in Nov. Which is why I want to stick with an LTE device. I'll try turning off the LTE and see if that helps.

Hi,
Ever since I installed the [MINI|MINIPRO|ACTIVE|LwW] ExMIUIv4 2.4.13-r1 on my Xperia active, after a week or so I've been getting these random reboots. I am assuming those are reboots because when I look at the phone it wants me to punch in the SIM-PIN again, on the top of that it also asks me for the "SIM network unlock PIN" (on which I have to press the "Dismiss" button to get past). Neither of both issues have occurred with past ROMS.
Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions on the subject?
I've been looking for answers on the ROMS thread, but still haven't found someone with the same issue...(I might have missed it, though I'm still following the thread)
This might be the wrong place to post such a question, but rules are clear and won't let post under the that ROM's developer's thread...maybe one of you could post-forward my question to the guy's thread (the link above).
Nothing still? Geez...
Hi there!
I am not using MIUI, I'm using Spartan but I have recently started to experience the same thing.
It has happened from time to time in the past when using GPS software + loads of other apps but just recently it has started to happen extremely regularly and completely at random on my active too.
One trigger seems to be trying to get the phone to unlock after using GPS software, I slide the unlock toggle and boom, reboot.
I cannot say that I have fixed it at this stage but after reading a few threads this morning I have not had a reboot yet and I have been trying very hard.
What have I done so far: 1) Take out my sim card and rub it vigorously + ensure it is totally clean, reinserted my sim taking extreme care to ensure that it is properly seated. Do the same for the SD card to be on the safe side.
2) Put some paper between your battery and your phone.
This seems absolutely insane, I just bought this damn thing a couple of months ago and it is already screwed. I have tried factory reset + reflashing, numerous different roms and 2 kernels - it just will not stop rebooting now. Driving me insane.
Happened for the first time today whilst I was in a call. Not happy and I have blown my warranty by unlocking bootloader with testpoints
Please let me know if you get anywhere.
Hi,
What type of cellular phone do you have?
I fear that the problem does not lie within the phone, but in the ROM itself. I have a xperia active, and have not ever had any problems with it until I changed roms.
My handset is an Xperia Active also.
There are a number of people experiencing this problem with the Active - many of them are using the latest stock firmware from sony and myself I am using Spartan rom - I do not believe it is specific to any one rom.
Somebody in another forum suggested it might be a problem with the .62 kernel base power management!
What are you usually doing with your phone when it reboots? A lot of us are having the problem when going into or coming out of power saving mode.

Well, last time it rebooted I just did things that I usually do: I surfed the web for a bit, then shut down the wifi, kill the tasks afterwards and went to bed. When I picked up the phone the next day I noticed it had been rebooted (it asked me for my SIMPIN). That's pretty much it...
Now the phone hasn't rebooted in a while, even though I still use it the same way that I did before.
Hi again,
I didn't notice your link until now. I haven't had a reboot (that i know of) in a while now. But I'm gonna try out the battery insulation technique and see if that improves anything for me. I'll post the results as soon as I've tried it out!
Thanks again!
Placing the paper between the phone and the battery seem to have helped! Thanks you! I am mentioning it to others and giving you the kudos for it.
It has been so freezing cold here lately that I'm almost positive it is nothing to do with heat transfer of the battery.
I am using ExMIUI now too. Did you download the update that became available on the 12th?
Since flashing that update I have not had a single reboot. Not counting my chickens yet but fingers crossed.
Well the paper-trick did the trick for me, and yes I am running on the latest version of ExMIUI. So far no reboot for me either!
Hey guys!
I have posted before but since then the issue has exacerbated to the point where I'm at my wit's end.
I have the SM-P907A AT&T version of this tablet. I bought it second hand and started experiencing issues almost immediately, although nothing as bad as what I'm going through now.
It began with the odd blue-screen and very rare restart. It quickly escalated when I created multiple profiles (user ids). The restarts would happen entirely randomly but without fail within 10 minutes of operation no matter what I did. Oddly enough, it would NEVER restart when connected to a power supply, though I have drawn very little from that.
Thusly, I factory reset my tablet and hoped that would fix the issue; to no avail. Then I decided to Odin flash the stock ROM. Again no joy. Restarts were persistent and regular when the tablet wasn't connected to a power supply. I then rooted the tablet, installed Titanium Backup Pro and proceeded to freeze all apps/odex-es related to Samsung Knox. As some have posted, doing this helped them out. Not lucky enough, I guess.
My questions:
Did my setting up multiple users somehow mess with the tablet in such a deep and integrated way that even factory resetting, re-flashing stock would not help? Is that even possible? My firmware version is P907AUCU1AND7. I'm going to manually update to Lollipop but if my meddling with the multiple users "broke" something essential, will that help?
No, proppably not

I don't think that using the multi user functionality has anything to do with the issues you are experiencing. I have 3 user on my tablet and using it for a year now. Both on KitKat and Lollipop that I am using now. Both rooted, KitKat with Xposed also. Never had issues with blue screens and reboots.
Issues with US devices have been posted regularly and explanations have been posted. Don't focus on multiuser for the issues you experience.
I' am using the SM-P905 International version (EUR)
PDA: P905XXUABOG1
CSC: P905EURABOG1
Ridiculous
Okay guys. Seriously ridiculous. I downloaded the lollipop ROM but got an error when adb sideloading it because it requires the previous firmware P907AUCU1ANK2 for it to update properly whereas I have the one older than that: P907AUCU1AND7.
Can someone help a brotha out? Post a link from where I can download it?! Maybe share their stock rom file?! Pretty please? I've managed to find only TWO results on google. One is a mobilefileserver result requiring that I Pay $60. The other is a Chinese site requiring that I pay significantly less but in a way which is baffling me at the moment.
Any good guy out there who can help??????

Random restart is the problem of cracked battery connector. Re solder the battery connector will fix it permanently.
Read the thread " Flickering Screen " in Galaxy Note or Tab Pro, you will see they all have similar problem like yours and the fix is simple.
No software or upgrade will fix the hardware problem, regardless Kitkat or Lollipop.
Hello everyone,
This is my first post on XDA so please forgive me if I'm doing something wrong (I also posted in the T-Mobile S6 Forum).
So my story, I got a refurbished unit G920T at Swappa, I updated to the newest version directly (G920TUVU3DOI1) and it was working fine for the first week or so. Then the reboots started happening, I didn't give it too much thought but looked into it anyways.
At first I thought it was a problem with the WiFi and I tried to keep it off for a while, and it did work for a day but again the restarts kept happening, and now with the phone turning off during the night (no apparent loss in battery mind you).
Then I went to rooting and custom kernels.
I installed unikernel v8-0002 through Odin3_v3.10.6 and I tried removing some Samsung apps with TitaniumBackup in case there was some conflict happening but the restarts kept happening.
Then I installed a custom ROM, "XtreStoLite_ROM_v2.4_Deo-Mod-Edition_XXU3COI9_G920-5-F-I-T-W8-K-L-S" to be more specific.
And to my surprise it worked great, no restarts or shutdowns for about 2-3 weeks, it was great!
But then out of the blue the restarts started happening, they started slow, about 2-3 a day.
But after a few days they went to 10-20 and after that 100-200 a day.
Something was definitely wrong. So I installed the original firmware again (G920TUVU3DOI1_G920TTMB3DOI1_G920TUVU3DOI1_HOME) and booted to the stock firmware, restarts kept happening of course (didn't expect them to stop).
So I retreaded my steps and installed multiple other kernels (Unikernel V9, Vindicator, multiple different flavors of them). Also I installed multiple ROMs (Arrow_ROM_v6.0.0, and DN5 - S6 FLAT - EDGE v4 OJ5 - deodex) but nothing seems to work;
I did multiple wipes, storage wipes, cache wipes, factory resets (from GUI and twrp-2.8.7.2-zeroflte) but every time the same thing happens.
I did notice that the phone stutters and freezes, a behavior that I have not experienced before.
I installed CatLog and got multiple log files when the phone restarts but all of them are different and there is no "pattern" to be found (at least in first inspection). I want to upload them but my post count prohibits it.
Please let me know what can I do, I will reply to your questions ASAP so at least I can get some light into what is happening.
Thank you!
Well, if this is happening across multiple roms/software it can only really be hardware at fault I would think?

Hello!
After I posted this I ended up talking to T-Mobile and apparently the phone still is under warranty and they sent me a shipping label to return the phone and get another one from them.
Which is good but also I tripped KNOX but I don't know how much they care about that.
Fingers crossed I guess.
Thank you for replying!
Good to hear of a semi positive result! Let us know!

Hi guys,
I have this problem with my galaxy s4 mini: a few days ago, soon after rooting the phone with the procedure found in this forum, mobile network began to work only on edge, and sometimes there is no service at all.
Therefore, I tried to check the sim in another phone, and it works good, I did a hard reset, and nothing changed.
Then, at this point I flashed the rom with a stock firmware, I flashed the modem, but mobile network wasn't working yet, (it was still working on edge).
Thus, I decided to flash the rom with a CM 13 (snapshot), and here something happened !
In fact, LTE/H/3g have begun to work, but only for short periods of time when in use (looking some stuff on the internet), like 10-20 minutes, and only when the battery is almost completely charged, at least until it reached 60%,
then, when it drops below, it begins to have the usual connection problems.
Since I've rooted the phone, I haven't installed any app, I put a sd card in it, another thing is that, when I use mobile network (internet or apps) the phone becomes really hot.
If someone could figure out what could be the problem, I'd really appriciate your help,
Thank you.
