These Are Questions

(more of them you answer the bigger chance you get for quick resolution)
You NEED To Answer In YOUR Post
(more of them you answer the bigger chance you get for quick resolution)
1. What exact phone model is it ? (check the sticker under the battery and include it in your post)
2. Did you use any guide ? (best if you paste the link and include it in your post )
3. What exactly where you doing (post what were trying to do, name of apps/programs you were you using etc.)
3.a If you have app problem make sure to include name of the app and source of download
3.b If You have flash problem make sure to include FULL name of the ROM and flash file also include source of download, program used to flash/update(if you are using CWM / TWRP / OR / or any custom recovery make sure to post VERSION number), your operating system, Usb ports info (1.x, 2.0, 3.0, 3.1), was / is your battery full,
4. Can you provide LOGCAT ? GUIDE HERE If Needed (adb for windows in attachment)
5.Can you provide SCREENSHOTS ?
to provide screenshots without any app, root or trouble use adb (if you on linux no need to explain, if you on windows see link at the bottom) paste this code to terminal/cmd and press enter every time you want to make screenshot
For linux/ubuntu/etc.
For OsX
For Windows (*no 1 liners don't work)
This will make screenshot named screen.png and save it (linux and osx home folder) (windows adb folder or root of system drive (i.e. c:\) depending on configuration) {rename "screen.png" to your desired name and remember this will overwrite the previous screen if name stays the same}
For linux/ubuntu/etc.
Code:
adb shell screencap -p | sed 's/\r$//' > screen.png
Code:
adb shell screencap -p | perl -pe 's/\x0D\x0A/\x0A/g' > screen.png
Code:
adb shell screencap -p /sdcard/screen.png
adb pull /sdcard/screen.png
adb shell rm /sdcard/screen.png
5. Post answers in YOUR POST and wait for me or someone else to happily answer (not bombard you with questions before we can help you)
