Yesterday, it just turned off while it was in idle mode. The red LED on to the right of 'Samsung' label flashes everytime I press the power button but doesn't turn on. I tried removing the battery, SIM and memory card however, again nothing happening.

also nothing happened when I plugged the charger nor USB cable.

can't also boot on recovery mode nor download mode.

I also tried JIG USB but nothing happened.

Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Hi,

Is there any update about what happened to your phone? Hope this is not the beginning of the "Sudden Death Syndrome of Note 2"...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CristiM74:
A similar thing happened to my phone yesterday. It just restarted for no reason when the battery was charged at about 45%. When atempting to restart it got stuck at the screen "Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100". I removed the battery several times, left it charging overnight, but it didn't help. Still gets stuck there. Further more it would not enter recovery mode, but it does enter download mode. What to do? It's under warranty, but I suppose the service center will only open tomorrow.

I have the same problem!! have you found a solution yet?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bushako:
Sounds like sudden death syndrome. I doubt there's much you can do but hand it to a service repair center. I think since the note 2 is under a year old you should still have a warranty by default from Samsung service center. Just register your device on their website. That's worth a short. I have it worse since I'm located offshore and if it happens to my note 2 Ill be completely out of luck for the next few months.

Galaxy Note 2 won't turn on.

My Note 2 was running perfectly fine ever since I got it. I was playing NFS Most Wanted and then my Note 2 said that the game had crashed. So, I tapped "Ok" on the little pop-up window, and then my Note 2 went back to the home screen. I later took it to my room to charge it because it was just about dead. I had it charging all night and then when I woke up in the morning I found it sitting on my window sill doing nothing. I tried to turn it on thinking that I had turned it off before I went to bed the night before. I then pressed the power button and saw a little red light flash in the upper right hand corner near the proximity and light sensor but nothing happened. The phone won't do anything now except for the little light thing. Plugging it in hasn't done much for me. I though that it was my phone's root access that was causing it to freak out. So I looked up a solution online. I found nothing. I can't get it fixed on warranty because it has root access. Any suggestions on where I could get it fixed or any things I could do at home? Please help. I have been stuck using an old flip phone for 2 or 3 weeks now! :confused:

Same Position

Same thing has happened to me. I've had the phone since its release and I've never had an issue with it until the last week.

I'd noticed that the phone would sometimes reboot on its own. This issue only began occurring this week. I'm not too sure if its related or not.

I don't know what happened, one minute it was working... the next I find it stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy Note N7001 screen". I tried pulling out battery and booting again, however I still couldn't get anywhere.

After returning home from work, I tried booting again. Interestingly it got as far as the "Samsung" logo this time; however it still did not start. I tried ONE more time, this time around it actually booted (Albeit slow) and got as far as the lock screen. However as soon as I tried to unlock the screen, it froze (I wasn't able to log back in again after that).

I've tried installing stock ROM using Odin v3.04 and v1.85 on 3 different machines and operating system versions. On each occasion I only get as far as below:

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Please wait..

<OSM> N7100XXDLL7_N7100DBTDLL2_N7100XXDLK7_HOME.tar.md5 is valid.

<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..

<OSM> Leave CS..

<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..

<ID:0/003> File analysis..

<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/003> Initialzation..

<ID:0/003> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/003> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/003> sboot.bin

<ID:0/003> NAND Write Start!!

<ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.

<ID:0/003> Added!!

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

I've tried doing an emergency recovery using Samsung Kies, however Kies just freezes when it looks to be downloading the firmware. I really only tried this option as I've run out of roads to choose from.

As of right now, all I can do is boot into Download Mode. If I boot into normal mode, I only see the screen that says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.

Getting the phone repaired via warranty will also be tough due to the phone being rooted.

I'm out of ideas. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. I'd do just about anything to get my Galaxy Note II up and running again. Ironically, the Galaxy Note II is probably the least I've modified of all my previous Android phones. It was still using original stock ROM, the only modification was the fact it was rooted. My original Galaxy Note got a real workout with ROMs etc. and is still going strong.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UtkarshGupta:
If you have can't reboot to recovery but can to download mode. And if it is stuck on galaxy note 2 screen woth red proximity led. Then it's an issue of sds. That means nothing but Samsung can help you. Also if you are unable to boot to download mode its still sds. If you have a counter raise then it would be difficult to claim warranty.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raysie:
The interesting thing is Download Mode no longer shows that my counter was at one.

Hi,

I have the same problem with my Galaxy Note 2 T-Mobile. I exchanged for new one. After 3 days it was the same problem, so I exchanged it for third one. Next day after exchange the third phone does the same thing, won't turn on after idle mode about 4 times a day. I will get rid of Galaxy Note 2. I am sick of it. Maybe Galaxy S3 is a better option.

yes, it IS SDS 99% sure.. As it was said in other threads this is becoming really anoying and we should make a Sticked post with the most easy, clear and basic information to be sure that the new owners will not have this problem...

Anyone knows how to say that to the moderators of the forum? I think we MUST do that in order to help the new people

coming back to the thread you have to send to samsung ASAP

I'm really sorry for the people who had this issue it is a expensive phone which have been released with two big problems Exynos and SDS...

Hope someone could say the idea of the thread to the moderators!

SDS is slowing killing Note2 too as well? If SDS just send to Samsung for warranty. Even if its rooted Samsung will not find out coz device cannot boot up.

I don't understand why peeps are complaining about battery life.

I have sooo awesome on wanamlite 2.8.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A1rh3ad:
Mine does this exact same thing to me at least once a week and it seems to be becoming a common problem. I'd hate to return it again because I will lose the progress on my games because they are too paranoid to allow root. All they do is reset your phone without any care about their customer's app data which I think is a very poor way to treat customers. They look at you funny and say "it's just a game" but its not just a game its your customers game and you treat us like dirt.

Anyway rant aside, take your battery out and put it back in. Then plug the phone in and wait for the charge progress to appear and it should turn back on.

You're wrong. By rooting your phone you violate the warranty agreement and they can deny servicing your phone however they see fit.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UtkarshGupta:
Even if he hadn't rooted this issue could have come up.

Yeah but it is clearly stated that it will void your warranty.

That's too bad because it was Samsung's fault.

Same thing happened to me last night. I was using my Note II and the battery was at 33%. I just went away for about 5 minutes or so and when I came back, the cell phone had self restarted itself and was stuck at the screen "Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100".

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djricochet:
Exactly the same problem just happened to me also. Phone was just sitting on the desk, I received an SMS which I viewed and then put the phone back to sleep. It had well over 50% battery remaining.

5 mins later I go to use it again and it won't respond to any attempts to wake it up and the red LED at the top just flashes briefly each time. I've tried holding in the power and home buttons to reset, removing and replacing the battery, leaving it on charge for a while and then retrying. None seems to work. I guess it will have to go back and I'll hope they can't get it to turn on either to find out it was rooted.

Hi, I am using a Galaxy Note 1 (GT-N7000) and this just happened to my device last night also!

So it is not a Note 2-only problem.

My phone was running XXLSA ROM without root.

It restarted itself and hanged at the "Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000" screen.

Took out batt, microSD and SIM.

Restarted it but it went into a loop between the "Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000" and "Samsung" logo screens.

Took out batt, microSD and SIM a few more times and same result.

Finally, took out batt, microSD and SIM and left phone without them overnight.

Today, I cannot even start the phone. USB charging also does not turn on the battery charging icon.

The last app I installed was the new Google Hangouts which replaced Google Talk.

Hey man. Sorry to hear about your phone. I guess we both share something in common. Well i gave the cell under warranty and still haven't received it yet. It's almost a month now. The company told me that there are many note 2's and other galaxy series cellphones with the same issue that we're facing. Good thing I bought it with warranty cuz i bought my ex (note 1) without one. Oh and you wana know something strange? Before my note 2 ended up crashing, the last app i used was google translate :p GOOGLE :p i downloaded the offline chinese language pack as i had to translate a lot of stuff in different places without the use of internet.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangescale:
It happens to me also :(

A few minutes ago while I was using my Note 2 for browsing then suddenly it turned off completely.

Every time I pressed the power button, I only got red led flashing and the screen brightened a bit.

Judging by what I read here, the only thing I can do is bringing my phone back for service.

Luckily Its still in warranty (using it for 5 months).

I wonder how can I get all of my data stored in Phone's internal memory?

Now I'm going to use my wonderful Old Dell Streak 5 (but I have to find Micro SIM adapter first.. Oh my :p)

I am having the same issue with one of my Note II's. :p
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pezmet:
Issue seems to be regarding the charging circuit for the battery.

1st try to boot using a battery fully charged, that works on another note2, don`t try charging the unit since charging could not work.

Booting with battery taken off might work, or might not work, worth a try since i don`t know how that circuit works, it could report wrong charge level to the system.
