same problem here

I think i have that problem.. let me explain.

- A friend bought me a used phone from china ( LG G3 D855 ) as its written under the battery, it was running android 4.4.2 , but the IMEI number on the phone refers to ls990.

- Before i got the phone he unlocked it to work on our network in Egypt like (Vodafone)

- When i try to update the phone stuck on logo , and can't login on recovery or download mode , only fastboot mode .

- After searching i found the way to solve the problem and installing a stock ls990 rom on it.

- Then unlocked it again by a tutorial found on internet by editing build.prop file and it works great.

- Now when i try to use TWRP ver.2.8.0.0 to install any custom rom build D855 it fails, while installing custom rom build ls990 success but my network not working.

is there any way to install a D855 rom on ls990 or another way to solve this problem ??
[Sprint LG G3] seloka180:
Search for ls990 build.prop . by download or extract it from any ls990 rom , put build.prop in system folder after you root your device and then flash with lg flash tool using tot file ls990 zv4.

sent from my ls990
[Sprint LG G3] PhoneNoobs:
Ok so its confirmed that that works. I was thinking about making my sprint g3 into a AT&T g3 same way just vice versa

---------- Post added at 08:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 AM ----------

I have a ls990 and i can only unlock it by global gsm patch but only works with roms. Im trying to sell it so im currently stock and locked to sprint. I tried the build prop edits and kept getting com.phone.android has stopped like NON STOP rendered the phone useless. Recovered and stock again what build prop tutorial did u use that doesnt give u that pop up error?

Here's the tutorial

[Sprint LG G3] PhoneNoobs:
Thats the same way i did it except that i used root explorer to edit the build prop and i did change the permissions also using root explorer do u think if i use rom toolbox itll magically work? Because al though it might work in the beggining after a reboot im stuck with FC errors.

Hey guys

My edge has frozen 3 times already to the point I have to reboot holding the 3 buttons.

Anyone else have this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Joe T:
My screen went black, had to hold the volume down and power until it rebooted. I've only had this phone for 4 hours.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] h3ck:
Nope guys, mine running like a dream and I'm Def a power user. I'd try a couple back to back factory resets.if you still have issues, take it back.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] XanxusPrimo:
Got the same issue. And factory reseting didn't do anything. I also tried to reset using the 3 buttons but it just says downloading for more than an hour! I really don't want to send it back and go trough the whole hassle. I just want a fix. I got this phone yesterday and I can't enjoy it... it only freezes when on standby for some time. The only way I can get it to work is by using the 3 buttons just like they guy above...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] NonXtreme:
The downloading screen is just a bootloader screen for flashing rom while odin. If you isn't flashing rom, you don't need to wait for it since the phone is doing nothing.

Got a reboot once on PAW FW. Nothing after.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] PracticallyGeek:
Yep had one yesterday after using bbc iplayer, tried to go back into iplayer from multitasking and it froze then went black . .used the volume and power for 7 secs and everything came back on . .

Hoping this is just software. .

Mine is UK version and got it on the 8th . .

Read that the S6 had similar problems
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] letzgoterps:
Anyone have a fix for this or do I need to take it back to Verizon? I'm in the US and have the same issue. It has happened to me multiple times.

I get automatic reboots as well as full screen lockup for 7-10 minutes where it reboots itself. Both seem to occur when I'm trying to do something immediately after doing something else. Examples are when I hit send on a text/tweet and then pull down the task bar while it's in the process of sending the text/tweet or when rotating screen to look at a picture in landscape mode in Facebook and immediately tapping the center of the screen to get rid of the text on the screen.

This has now happened every day I've had the phone (Friday, Saturday, and now Sunday). It's getting quite old. Any help would be appreciated before I take my phone back to Verizon tomorrow.

I got the phone for 2 weeks now, yesterday my volume down and power button is unresponsive, press the power button for a few seconds but it wont respond. I have to hold volume and power buttons and press until a few more seconds and ir restarts, after rebooting it works ok.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] letzgoterps:
Anyone have an update to this thread? Has anyone gotten a fix for this? Or should I just send my phone back and get another? Thanks for any help.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] PracticallyGeek:
Just had another freeze and shutdown . .doesn't reboot but requires me too use power on and volume keys for 7 seconds to restart phone. .really hope its a software problem ..seems to happen on multi tasking
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] abdelfattahben:
same for Galaxy S6

i have the Galaxy S6 and i have the same probleme, my phone keep freezing and some time rebooting, i try the safe more but still freezing, i delete the new installed app with no luck.

some other wesite say this is an apps crash that make the phone freezing, but i don't know.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] johanbiff:
Don't worry, Samsung will fix this with an update. Only had 1 reboot and it was on PAW fw.. now that I'm on pb4 it haven't happened once.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Nidaja:
I have a verizon S7 edge, and have had multiple reboots on the phone, with no consistent pattern. It has done it while sitting on the bed untouched/unused. It remounts the SD card every time this happens. I'm really stunned there is no word from Samsung about this issue :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Rybov2.0:
I have had the same issue. I worked with a Samsung support member who was helpful in attempting to troubleshoot and log the issue. I ran my phone in safe mode for a few hours in hopes that it may have been an app I downloaded causing the freezing issue but unfortunately the phone froze again while in safe mode. According to Samsung, my next step is to go to a Samsung Experience shop in a Best Buy and have them do a software flash. I'm heading there today and if its successful I'll be sure to post about it.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] rotkiv3451:
Is this for the Exynos or Snapdragon variant?

I have the exynos one and the phone freezes, restarts, and sometimes even plays a horrific sound and all I can do is force restart it. I'm gonna have to take this phone back if this keeps happening.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] RizSher:
May not necessarily be relevant, but I had random reboots, freezes, then I found out the SD card, once I'd be using for a couple of years had started dying - the SD card notification kept coming up ... I tried formatting the card, and found it took a Windows laptop 2 hours and was still only 60% done. Threw it away, got another SD card (still old, but not dying), put that in, and have no issues since. Check if your SD card is corrupted, or worse.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] the_crevis:

So far i have had the phone for 3 weeks and optus have had it for 2 of those. Im very hesitant to return it again as itl be 2 weeks before i get it back again... maybe ill try and get it swapped over

i bought my s7 edge duos bnew and used it without sim card for 2 days and it works like dream... i got random freezing after i installed sim card on it... like about 4x a day... it just froze, black screen... i had to hold the power and volume down to reboot the phone... i had my sim card replaced by my carrier, i dont encounter freezing since....
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] J.Biden:
I've had three cases up till now where it has suddenly just died. Pressing home+power+vol down reboots it though. I got mine at the end of March, and I didn't have this issue until May 16th, so a couple of days after receiving the May update. It has only happened three times though, so I won't go as far as saying that it's a deal breaker, and I'll get a replacement (since it's probably a kernel issue, i.e software), so I just hope the June update will smooth things out! The device is still relatively new, so it's kinda expected that there are some minor and at least one major bug hiding somewhere, so I'm guessing that Samsung is on the case.

Same problem

Hello. I have the same problem myself with my phone. Freeze standby it stands. I gave reset, I reinstalled the firmware version and another and still I was blocked. Does the Samsung did not manage to solve the problem through either update or a hardware problem? I tried all possible variations and have been unsuccessful.

S7 Edge Duos freezes on stand by

I have the dual-sim version and I started getting this problem like two weeks ago. The phone just freezes on stand by, randomly.

I already did a factory reset but the problem persists.

Has anyone found a solution, what should I do?

I have the very same issue, I factory reset the device and the issue is still ongoing, currently on firmware G935FXXS1APG3 looks like a software issue, this is very impacting as it happens while in sleep mode and I don't know if I am about to miss an important phone call because of it.

Hello all!!! If somebody can help me identify if this is a hard or soft brick that would help me very much and if soft what can I do to fix it.

I got this phone about 10 days ago from a guy that has it from UK tesco carrier on 09/09. I am in Romania. He sent it to an u notarized service to be unlocked. They got phone now unlocked for any carrier nw. Those guys rooted phone and do not know exactly what happened but probably bricked it causing screen to freeze for a second every 1 2 min in every app. If I type on keyword and screen freezes and If I continue. Then when screen comes back takes all keys typed wile frozen, if I record a video and screen freezes this is replicated in the recorded video freezing video at that exact moment.

What I have done is to install various stock android from different countries using Odin, along with the bootloader, reset phone to factory, reinstall official OS from smart switch about 5 time already...?* is acting the same. Entered safemode- no joy

Could somebody please help me with this as I am very desperate. Payed a lot of money for it.

If there is any details required to provide a certain answer this please ask.from what I can see in cpuz shouwing at cpu 6 running and then (8)

Thank you in advance
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] danielBTUro:
DHello. Got the phone fixed. My mistake was that before flashing stock firmware i did not played with developers options meaning usb debug. Set to on

Download mode. Flashed all 4 ... and thats it. Phone got back to normal. Aparently this was not a HW issue as many other specialists from services told me.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] pshdo:
My S7 Edge (Danish single SIM variant), froze after a few days, and was running REALLY BURNING HOT...I rebooted with power+vol down... and stopped it from fast charging, and then there was no problems at all for exactly one months...

Now it freeze every 5-6 minutes, and even reboot randomly...

I have tried everything Danish Samsung support had to offer (factory reset, new firmware with Smart Switch, clear cache, and so on) but nothing did solve the problem at all....

- so now my one months old S7 EDGE is in for repair for the next 14 days !!!

I have had no SD card installed.

SAMSUNG "don´t know of any issue with the S7 EDGE freezing" they say... Even thoug there is more than 500.000 hits when you search for "s7 edge freeze" in google search engine...

LOL!!!

They cant be serious !

This smells like a new scandal, just like the NOTE 7...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] RiTCHiE007:
Yea this is what i hate bout samsung with their bad service. I bought a S7 6 weeks ago and the first couple of days i had these freezes also. Tried all sorts of things to fix it like new firmware from different regions, new sd cards, clearing the cache memory etc but nothing seem to work. Some times its fine for a week then when i open up the simtray to swap my simcard then on the same day it started to freeze again and now i have like 1 freeze each day. If this keeps going like this then ill send this phone back also and when its fixed ill sell it because im pretty much done with samsung and their bad phones and wish i never sold me xperia z5c for this phone because even tho the camera is great but rather then that it only gave me problems.

Same issue here. Been posting about it in the "Bootloader Exception" thread.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Smartie36:
Brought my S7 edge in September and I've got the random freezing problem, haven't tried without a micro sd card yet. Decided to re-flash the firmware using Odin, I also did a full format of the sd card on my pc but it just froze again and I had to hold down the three buttons to force a reboot.

Weird thing for me is that 95% of the time when it freezes I happen to be using the tapatalk app! Also had one spontaneous reboot while installing some apps using Google play.

I think the phone itself is awesome but not impressed with having these sort of issues in a phone that cost me £640!

honestly don't know whether it's a hardware or software issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] neol23:
For me it also freezes when using tapatalk. I deleted it and installed the version from may - no issue since.

I think it is related to bad cache process on some apps. But still - sam should fix/patch this soon. I thought it was solved with latest update, but no...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Smartie36:
Interesting, I did notice a cache folder on the SD card for both the apps that I've had crash, tapatalk being the main problem app for me. I'm currently running my edge without the sd card installed but if I still encounter a freeze I'll do the same as you and grab the may release of tapatalk and test again.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Will_i_ams:
Samsung are going to take mine in under warranty and have a look at it. Hopefully they'll fix what ever is wrong with it.

i am having this issue with a dual sim s7e i just bought from dubai. i would be very interested in what samsung report to you.

i have had the phone for a week. it did it from day one. l did a factory restore from recovery 3 days ago, i thouht that fixed it but it happened again today.

i had 2 sims in it from the start so i doubt it is related to SD card.

i got s7e to replace a v1 note 7 that i used for 69 days. the note 7 did not crash or reboot asingle time let alone freeze on a black screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Will_i_ams:
I can say for sure my issue isn't related to an external sd card. I get the problem the same amount whether it's in or out.

Weirdly I've gone the whole day without a single crash, after having 7-8 a day in the prior weeks.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] 5icz:
I also have this problem with dualsim version of S7. Now I am trying to reproduce the problem when running safe mode. So far I was not able to reproduce it with safe mode enabled. So it might be a software problem. I will wait for Android 7 release and if it does not help I will send the phone for repair.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Smartie36:
Just contacted Samsung as well to arrange to send mine back for repair, I've had enough now with all these random freezes and reboots.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Will_i_ams:
Strangely, went 36 hrs without a freeze. Was using the phone as I normally do but now they're back. Really weird issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] paysen:
My GF had the same problem. We just send it in for repair a few weeks ago, the display seems to be faulty, causing it to freeze and reboot. Sometimes even 3 times a day. It got very warm, too.

Sadly, Samsung has no spare parts available for the pink gold yet, so she get's a new model in a few days.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Smartie36:
Yep I went all yesterday without any freezing or rebooting where as today I've lost count how many times it's happened, locked up and rebooted when I first tried to type this reply!

I just hope Samsung doesn't just reflash the firmware and send the handset back to me as that won't do diddly squat.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Will_i_ams:
I might write a note and put it in the box saying I've already tried exactly that. Could really do without not having my phone for a week+ while they're "fixing" it, only for it to be exactly the same when I get it back.

Might ask them if they're allowed to let me know what exactly is wrong and what they've done to fix it.

I'll update this thread if I get a response.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] neol23:
Just delete tapatalk app. Since I reverted to an older version - from may - no freezes or reboots for more than a week now. It must be software, not a hardware problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] arickrocker:
I had the issue wherein the phone would stop working, just stuck. Turns out Apps such as Facebook and Kindle for Samsung were the problem. With kindle being the prime reason. There were multiple msgs appearing stating Kindle has stopped working. I would suggest checking the Apps you have installed even the Samsung ones. My phone is working better then ever since i disabled facebook and uninstalled Kindle.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Smartie36:
100% hardware issue far as I'm concerned, in my case anyway , mine froze running in safe mode, even after a factory reset the phone locked up while running some apps that come with the firmware like Skype to name one. Installing apps was also another activity that would often cause the phone to freeze up completely. Having done nothing but search about this freezing issue for the past few weeks I've seen quite a few people mentioning about how their freezing problems were fixed after the main board was replaced on their phone, I'm hoping that is what Samsung do with my handset, they say my phone should be fixed by the middle of new week.

Also I did delete Tapatalk app and install the version from may after seeing you mention about that the other day, phone still locked up when using the app, in the case of my s7 edge it is a hardware issue.

By the way did you know Tapatalk updated their app just a few days ago, you might want to try it, the update did freeze my phone still but that's because the hardware is faulty, I'd be interested to see if it works ok on your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Will_i_ams:
Mine got collected today. I left a note asking if they wouldn't mind letting me know what's causing the issue and what they've done to fix it. Will post any response here.
