[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illmatic90:
So I am currently running Apex 7.0 Update 1 Rom and recently I have been having an issue with my home button. Basically every time I unlock my phone my home button sporadically keeps pressing it self for no reason, and the only way I am able to stop it is by hitting either the back button several times or the search button. It also happens randomly while I am using my phone to browse the internet or play music. I noticed that this also occurred while i was on Serendipity 7 so I do not think it is a ROM based issue. Has anyone encountered encountered the same issue? Is there a fix for it? Any help would be great Thanks.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pkadavid:
This happened to mine while I still had the stock rom on it. AT&T took it back, no questions asked and replaced it. I would suggest going back to stock and calling AT&T. I assume you're still within your one-year window.

As a bonus, my GPS was horrible on my first handset, but my second was has been perfect since day one, no matter what rom I've been on.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
(This isn't my idea - thanks to Studacris for this one)

Try putting your phone in a bag of rice for a while. If the button is freaking out, there's a chance it may have some moisture in the phone that's causing problems, and the rice will draw that moisture out.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidenine:
Hey guys, I just got my SG2, coming from an iPhone 3GS. Not my first experience with Android, but it is my first Android phone. Because I do enjoy the iOS pop up notification system, I've installed SMS Popup from the market. Seems to work pretty well, except I cannot get it to pop up a notification for my SMS messages without unlocking the phone. I need to use a password for my phone per my company's security settings, and so the pop up notification won't show until I enter my password.

Is there a way for the pop up to show before I unlock the phone? I thought I set it up that way, but it's not working for me.

Thanks for any help!

EDIT: Found the fix by enabling the "show over lock screen fix" option under Popup settings.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sawgent:
did you try Handcent SMS?

this application has got "enable, disable popup over the lock screen" option.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidenine:
Yes, I did. No luck there, unless I'm doing something wrong.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sidenine:
I saw another option for a "fix" for newer devices in Handcent, and that seemed to work. Looks like I found my own answer!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supaphreek:
Im planning on making the switch from Apex to MIUI, and the thread said to go back to stock...

My question is, how exactly do i go back to stock? I dont think odin 1 click is an option because im on a 1012 build phone.. And last time i tried it, i hard bricked because it didnt flash a new kernel, so i installed eclair on a GB kernel, then flashed a new rom, and it broke...

So my question is, what are the exact steps to go from an apex rom, to stock, to miui on a build 1012 phone.

Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
having no kernel wont hard brick you. thats corrupted BOOTLOADERS. and if it hard bricked you its a new phone right, or atleast you got that one jtagged. otherwise that was not a brick.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supaphreek:
Uhh, yeah, i meant bootloader, and yeah it was hard bricked, but i just sent it in for warranty before. I dont want to wait another 2 weeks lol. So, any idea on what to do?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2Quik:
So you got a new phone did you flash the new GB bootloaders or is it stock untouched since you received it from Samsung?

We need to find out if your on Froyo or GB. Go to your phone settings, go into about phone and tell us what your Firmware Version and build number are.

I tried your theme, first installed full theme, then icons fix, then robot fix, and when I started the phone, I had lost setting and dial apps (and some others too).

Also, I think the messages theme is too saturated on the green, and too pale on the gray.

[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Bfitz26:
hey guys just rooted transformer and now i am try to get my transformer to 1.6 ghz got supporting kernal, now i am trying to figure out how to actually get it to 1.6 i turned to so max says 1.6 now the min is at the bottom is that how i correctly clock it at 1.6 i was thinking i should move min to 1.6 or just under that. :confused:
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] idlefrog:
You don't want the minimum to be as high as the maximum as it will be going flat out even when idling.

Make the min as low as it will go and set the maximum to 1.6. The processor will go as fast as it needs to up to 1.6. You can use something like quadrant to see the improvement.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ultraman666:
use cpu master and it will do everything you are wanting it to

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cease1:
Okay, so as far as I am able to find... This problem is pretty unique...

I'm running Cognition 4.5.3 with no software issues. I have had this problem since Cog 3...

Most people have trouble getting their phone to boot into download mode, but NOT ME!

My phone randomly (I can find absolutely no cause or trigger and I'm not really a novice at Android) will shut itself off. Now normally I would not have an issue with this, but when I go to turn the phone on... it boots straight to download mode, and no key combo or anything will avoid it. So I have been testing this out and I can reboot the phone from the enhanced power menu, I can boot into Recovery from enhanced power menu... But when the phone shuts off or when I shut it down, the ONLY way that I can get it to power on correctly, is to plug the phone in and wait for it to show that the phone is charging. Then I can power it on normally...

Now, this issue arose the same time that my phone began to refuse to be recognised when plugged into a computer via USB... and at times the USB debugging and USB connected notifications will remain in the notification bar until I reboot the phone...

Naturally, my first instinct was to try and restore to stock... But since no computer will recognize my phone (even with fresh drivers installed) I cannot use odin to flash to stock. :(

So to summarize my problems:

1. My phone will not be recognized by a computer. (USB device not recognized)

2. My phone randomly shuts itself off. (Not a big deal, I can live with that)

3. My phone ONLY boots into download mode unless plugged into the charger (Incredibly frustrating when I am not at home or I don't have my car charger)

4. USB debugging and USB connected notifications stick around until phone is rebooted. (Using enhanced power menu. Again, I can live with this minor annoyance)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
have you tried reflashing that rom...or trying another?

it could be the random shutdown issue that some cappys have paired with a failing usb port.

try changing roms.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cease1:
Hehe... I tried a different rom for two weeks and had similar and/or more problems...

Reflashing doesn't help either.

I've tried my best to troubleshoot this on my own, so I'm not shutting down your attempt to help. Just letting you know I have tried it. :)

I hadn't heard about a failing USB port problem... I'll read up on it.

Thanks for your help!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d34thp1ng:
Atleast you dont have to worry about soft bricks if it auto boots into download mode :D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cease1:
Actually I do...because USB still won't interface... ;)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
like i said could be a short or something in the usb port...or somewhere in the hardware. if you experience this problem across different software then it has to be a physical defect someplace. cause if it were software related it would fix once you flashed something different...

you can try for a warranty replacement, that requires a little loose morals. you will have to do something to cause it not to boot, or only boot to the at&t screen otherwise they will have proof of root and/or custom rom and void your warranty. once thats accomplished mention some crap about kies failing and they should replace it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cease1:
Hmmm... a few months back my original USB/Charging cable broke and for a couple of days I was forced to use a generic MicroUSB cable to charge my phone... Could that have cause a short/damage to the port?

My phone does not have warranty as I bought it refurbished. :'(

(Plus my morals aren't that loose.) ;)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbrass:
Had a similar issue, eventually determined that it was a short in this usb port and did a warranty return. (Only when plugged in could I turn on, etc.)

If that isn't an option for you, you could try flashing CM. For some reason, the cyanogenmod build won't let the phone charge when off. ( Automatically powers back up once the juice flows.)

I flashed a nightly and somehow, magically, my phone would power back up normally ( but wouldn't turn off, unless plugged in without power. So strange!)

Even more weird? I flashed back to stock and the new powering and rebooting stuck. The short wasn't fixed, my phone simply seemed to reverse the problem.

Plus, you would be using cm. :-)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cease1:
Thanks! You guys have pretty much answered my questions...

I don't want to leave my nice DG Rom though. :P

Since I have determined that it is a hardware problem... I think I'm just going to live with it for a few more weeks until I can afford to go ahead and buy the newer build of the Cappy... (Might even wait until the SGSII comes out.) :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbrass:
You should be able to get warranty replacement, just make sure the device is in a stock condition when you take it in!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cease1:
Even though I purchased the device as a refurbished device?

The only problem is that I can't Odin back to stock...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steph2:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cease1:
Okay so I called them and let them know what the phone was doing and they tried to send me to samsung to have them repair the phone...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cease1:
I now hold in my hands a shiny new 1102 build Cappy... Took it to my local device service center and explained the random shutdowns and the booting into download mode and they replaced it no questions asked!

Now to get Cog 5b2 on here. ;)

Petition has been mailed.
[Xoom General] keitht:
Your drive is admirable however, you need to correct your grammar in that petition for sure. I am not trying to insult you, but that is a mess. I think (my opinion) you need to word it so that it is not so threatening in an al-Qaeda sorta way. If you need help with that, PM me.
[Xoom General] 2JZ GZE:
I signed!!!
[Xoom General] JanetPanic:
holy cow she is scary.

keitht is right though. If you want to be taken seriously by Motorola or potential adult signatories then you need to clean up the grammar. Additionally, in my opinion, It would be more effective if you phrased it to seem less petulant.
[Xoom General] csseale:
Yea...sorry frustrated. The site wont let me update it though. Stuck with it now.
[Xoom General] keitht:
I don't know how that petition site works so not sure if you can edit your existing text, but it should only include the facts of the issue which are:

- microSD card support does not work 4 months after release

- no word on when 4G support will be available 4 months after release

As we wait, neither of the above features work as we watch other tablets release with fully functional microSD slots and 4G support.

My opinion (and is only my opinion) at this point, I have lost 1/2 the value of the tablet for the features that should have already been implemented. Maybe even more since the Xoom was already priced more than any tablet that released with these features working.
[Xoom General] csseale:
Put that in the comments of the petition that way when I print it out they see all that.

I just see all these concerns being wasted in this forum when they could be put there and printed out and mailed ya know.

So please don't waste those great thoughts in here anymore

[Xoom General] IndivisibleP:
I am going to have to agree with the concerns about grammar and the mood being a little on the aggressive/unprofessional side. Not that the anger is wrong, because i honestly feel the same way. But for effectiveness I think a more sober statement would carry more weight.

I will sign regardless but what I would really like to see is another petition (since this one can't be edited) that includes the good points from this thread and also adds in that the signers may never purchase Motorola devices again as Moto are proving to be an unreliable and untrustworthy company that is satisfied to merely capitalize on hype while leaving its customers with buyers remorse. In this petition signers can affirm in their personal comments whether they will never buy from Motorola again. I would also like to point out that the dissatisfaction of xoom owners and how Moto is failing to honor their claims also effects non-Moto customers who watch from the sidelines and say "that will never happen to me".

If someone starts a more selectively worded petition we can send it in to cnet,gizmodo,phandroid, etc. At least one of them will propably do a small write up about it. This may catch Motos attention and if nothing else, definitely get more signers.
[Xoom General] JanetPanic:
It was known from day one that boxing up and sending off the xoom for the upgrade was a requirement. It was very clearly spelled out on the upgrade site or a link sent after registering on the upgrade site. I can't remember which at this stage.

Yes sending off the xoom for ~6 days to be upgraded leaves much to be desired but it should not be a surprise. Having to wait 4+ months to ship it off for the upgrade was a bit of a surprise (and disappointment) however. :)
[Xoom General] csseale:
These are the exact kind of comments we ned in the petition. To the point and firm
[Xoom General] keitht:
It was never stated that you have to send your Xoom in for microSD card support. Only 4G.
[Xoom General] StrifeSoldierVII:
I don't see what the problem is. We already have SDcard support. The devs are in charge of how Android works in most cases and as for the 4g thing... 4g LTE is new just as Honeycomb still is. Lots of testing is involved before a final product is born. Clearly you don't know how software/hardware works. There must be beta testing involved and sometimes it can and will take awhile to sort out all of the problems. To start a petition about this will make you a hypocrite due to the fact that they are not lying to you, they are just perfecting it. If they rush it out there will be problems of all sorts and people will then complain about how bad it is yada yada yada... make pointless petitions, bash the companies, and so on.

So please submit this "petition". You are making false claims. Moto was never quick on updates but to call them names? Who are you to say? They take their pretty little time but in the end they will deliver.
[Xoom General] Arun01:
Yes that's true but I also read in a few places that Verizon was going to make it available to do the upgrade in a Verizon store.They were supposedly training employees to do it but I see that was a lie too.
[Xoom General] csseale:
Who am I to say...I am the customer...and I do say...and I know exactly how hardware and software works.

I beg people to please stop defending them. They have done wrong.

If you order food at a resturant and it takes 4 hours and still waiting you would be pissed...even though you know its coming and it will be the best food you had. And the table next to you...is eating already...

Same thing...come on open your eyes
[Xoom General] IndivisibleP:
This is a pathetic attempt. It is well within the jurisdiction of common sense that when a companying uses some specs or features as a central advertising device they will be held accountable or expected to deliver. It is not the customers fault for expecting such features from the company that used them to convince the consumer to purchase their device. Don't be an idiot. If people selectively disable common sense in their own brain for their own conveniance they can't be surprised when the rest of the world dismisses their insubstantial or extremely partial assertions as nonsense. If Motorola ordered parts from a company so that they could put out a competative device in a fast moving market and 4 months later the company is saying were still perfecting it, you should have expected this. Meanwhile the market is moving along. What do you think their feelings are? It surprise you to know that they feel the same as every other person in the world would in that position. Be sane.

Do you know how long 4 months is in the mobile market? In human years we call that a lifetime. This exemplified by the fact that there is now word of xoom 2 with 4g. 4 months is a long time for a tech company to sit on its thumbs and not deliver. If you don't acknowledge that how can you be taken seriously?
[Xoom General] Psychokitty:
Signing it, though I completely agree with Invisible p.m. It's almost laughable as is With anything less than a thousand signatures. It should have been better thought out, considered others' opinions & input, proofread, and less threatening. A better one needs to be drafted and sent to bloggers and online testers/critics.
[Xoom General] csseale:
And I agree and wish I could retype it..but then I would lose the signers there now.

The content of the petition is mute. Yes it sets a foundation but the quantity of signatures and each and every comment made is where the impact comes from. While the petition is not typed out on business letter head it can still get the point across if given the chance.

And so far its looking good just need to keep up this pace.
