kernel panic upload mode
Today, we will deal with Kernel
Panic Upload Mode error that arises when you reboot your Android phone or after
performing factory reset.
What is kernel upload
panic mode ???
Many
users of the Samsung Tab 3 have complained of this issue. It comes up out of
nowhere and disappears once you restart the device. This is kind of a known
issue with this particular model of Samsung tabs and has been going on for some
years now. Many attribute this to software issue suggesting a device reset
while other say it is a hardware issue and recommend returning the device or
buying a new one.
The
word kernel indicates something to do with the firmware of the device. Usually
this error would be followed by some colorful text indicating some exception.
My investigation to understand if this happened on a device with stock firmware
or a modified one yielded a positive on the former while there were instance of
this happening after an unsuccessful custom ROM upgrade.
Steps to fix this issue are listed
below:
·
One solution is to uninstall “Advanced Task Manager“. The
task manager sometimes malfunctions and starts ending wrong processes which
causes the kernel to crash. Uninstall any task killer app or system cleaner app
which frees up memory on your phone. Use the Android default task manager.
Clear Cache Partition from Recovery Menu to
fix Kernel Panic Upload mode error:
If the above solution doesn’t helps. Then go to recovery menu
and clear cache of your phone by following the steps below:
·
First of all turn off your Android phone.
·
Once it’s completely turned off. Enter into recovery menu by
Pressing Volume Up + Home + Power button simultaneously. Keep
on holding the buttons until you see Android figure in the background.
·
Now in recovery menu. Locate Wipe Cache Partition. Use
volume buttons to navigate to it.
·
Now Press power button to select it.
·
After wiping cache partition.
·
Select on Reboot system now.
Cache allocated to apps can be causing trouble at times.
Clearing it enhances the performance of your phone and fixes unorthodox
behavior of phone.
If clearing cache didn’t fix the problem then you might have to
factory reset your phone. Just go to Recovery menu using the steps above and
select Factory Reset/Hard Reset.It will delete all the data present
in your phone. Make sure you make a backup of your phone before you perform factory reset.

Selecting the right ROM is very important. If your phone is
carrier unlocked and it does not have any carrier branding then you can
download ROM of any country that is not branded. To check branding see if
logo of some carrier (like verizon or T-Mobile) appears when you reboot your
phone. If your phone is not branded then you can flash ROM of any country which
is not carrier specific. Make sure you don’t flash unbranded ROM on branded phone.
Although, it is recommended to find the exactly same ROM as the one that was
installed on your phone before it got bricked. If you found exactly the same
ROM as the one installed on your phone. Your data wont be deleted.
