Anyone know the build.prop tweak for waking the phone with volume keys?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gruff83:
Hi All

Since flashing my phone to ICS through Kies, my S2 now gets very hot when just looking at web pages - I generally just read long forum threads on my phone and I don't load images, yet my phone still gets very warm; this didn't happen when I was running the latest version of Gingerbread.

I downloaded an app called CPU Spy, and when refreshing this, the clock cycles for 1200Mhz seem to ramp up when i'm just viewing a webpage in the stock browser or dolphin. Even after a factory reset and clearing the cache partition the problem still occurs.

I had similar heat issues when i bought the phone when it first came out, then i flashed to miui ROM, and then flash back to a stock CPW gingerbread 2.3.6 firmware, and this is the only time i never had the heat issues.

Anyone else had similar issues or can help with fixing this? seriously thinking of just going back to the old gingerbread firmware.

currently i'm running:

Android: 4.0.3

baseband i9100XXLPS

Kernel: 3.0.15-i9100XWLP7-CL340913

Does the kernel get updated when installing ICS through Kies? Just wondering if the current version would cause any issues if I flashed back to gingerbread 2.3.6?

Thanks

Gareth

install set cpu and set the maximum to 1000mhz or 800mhz. maybe that will help.

cheers!

Just flash your old modem

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riovte:
Kinda official firmware issue, the power management related with kernel. Try to flash custom rom and kernel, the developer had set the power to ondemand, so it wont hit 1200mhz every time you use browser app.

It worked on me, good luck:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gruff83:
Thanks riovte; so is this a common issue? Because I couldn't find many cases if it when i searched the forum. I'm guessing there is no planned fix any time soon?

Can anyone confirm that if i flash back down to an official 2.3.6 firmware that everything would still work ok? I want to try avoid custom roms from now on, they caused me nothing but hassle!

Cheers

You can try disabling plugins in the browser too. If there is some flash ad running somewhere on the page, it may make the CPU run hot.

Thanks lady chloe i'll try that, i actually thought they were disabled by default.

Atifsh, you didnt provide any details initially so i was unsure what flashing the modem would acheive but i'll look into that aswell.

Thanks

Sorry I'm in no mood to type all that info or search to give you details.

Will tell you this, flashing other modems or the old GB fixes heat issues for many including me.

I had almost the exact problem but not with just looking at a page but only with scrolling a page.

Then, the CPU hit 100%

(give a page a scroll swing and quickly go to task manager)

Browser in rest was just normal.

I saw this post and figured it could be some plugins.

Flash was not able to uninstall, but adobe pdf reader was.

When i uninstalled it, my problem was gone.

[HTC One S] dubntz:
I think i'm hosed. I cant mount the sdcard to push files and my nand has a MD5 mismatch. Any ideas on what I might be able to do?:confused:

Thanks for any help!
[HTC One S] shootind5nukes:
Easy fix. First off let me say if you have an MD5 mismatch your naindroid might be messed up. This is the linux way to do this, not sure how to do it on Windows, maybe download MD5 for windows(I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to find. ) In linux pull the entire naindroid to your computer and then go into the folder and delete the naindroid.md5 file(contains wrong md5 values)

md5sum * > naindroid.md5

naindroid.md5 should be the name of your md5 file, if not

md5sum * > YourMD5name.md5

If you have a text file in your naindroid cut that out of the directory while it's doing the the md5sum command. after that push the new naindroid.md5 file to your naindroid's location on your phone. If I was you I would do an advanced restore and restore system and data only. After that your phone will boot. Your md5 is messed up because something in the actual backup is messed up. I wouldn't restore any more than I had to. Once you restore I would reinstall a (stock) rom. Letme know if it works.

EDIT: I reread what you said and you said you cannot push files. If recovery is able to see the restore surely where ever your backup is, it is mounted. just push to that dir.
[HTC One S] dubntz:
So after a few reboots, I was able to mount the sd card again. This allowed me to push a new ROM...phew.

My sim didn't look like it was correctly installed because the tray was protruding a little bit. I removed the sim tray and messed with the card a bit, it looks like it fits better and i haven't had a problem in 2 days.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benbr84:
I have been reading a whole bunch of stuff but can't seem to piece together what to do. My atrix is unlocked and rooted. I was flashing a rom and it started to boot loop. I would like to just flash it back to stock now. Confused if I should use fastboot or rsd. Some of the possible fixes I have found have bad links for downloads. I also saw a few things that said flashing back to stock with rsd could brick the phone??
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] levi1123:
After unlocking the phone I /would not/ recommend using RSD to flash /anything/.

When you unlock your phone, you burn a bit fuse that tells the phone you've unlocked it. There is no way to undo that. Using RSD improperly can cause your phone to hard brick and render it useless.

To avoid possibly breaking your phone from this point I would recommend taking a close look at what ROMs are available in the development section to see which one(s) suit your needs. Listed below are the ones I use on any of my three Motorola Atrix 4G's ( US ATT )

Neutrino ( CyanogenMod 7 Base )

NottachTrix ( Closest Stock Experience IMO and more customizable )

Currently I run NottachTrix because I like webtop, but prior to getting a lapdock for this phone I ran solely on Neutrino EE with 0 issues.

You'll want to take a look at setting up Motorola's USB drivers for ADB / Fastboot usage these are a must.

For either ROM to flash properly, AFAIK, you'll need to use ROMRacers Recovery found here.

These are just my personal favorites, as there are a plethora more ROMs out there in the development section. There may be a stock ROM that I just am not aware of you can flash through recovery, but I wouldn't know off the top of my head.

As far as fixing the boot-loop issue goes I would go into recovery and wipe cache / data / dalvik cache, under advanced in recovery, and then reflash the ROM you're trying to use.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benbr84:
That got me on the right track. Thanks it's fixed.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reitman1:
Just had a quick question about the GNex and webtop. I currently have a Bionic that I'm ready to ditch for the Nexus. I also have one of the original Bionic Lapdocks. I was wondering if the Nexus has Lapdock of its own? If I modified my current Lapdock so that I could plug in the Nexus, would it work with my Bionic Lapdock? Thanks much.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
There's no Nexus lapdock. My understanding of the Motorola lapdocks is that they use separate HDMI and USB connectors. The Nexus uses MHL for its video out via the USB cable. Don't think the dock would like that very much (and it requires an external power source).

The Nexus also doesn't have a webtop function at all. You'd just be getting a large phone UI.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] reitman1:
Ah well, it was worth a shot. Guess I'll sell them both. Thanks for the reply!
[General Questions and Answers] couchmonkey:
How do I get dedicated apps (YouTube, Play Store) to open links and not the browser/chrome?

The only way I have found it to work is to not have a browser installed. On my tablet links open up the apps but with my Rezound the browser takes over and by default opens all links.

The settings don't mean anything and no prompt even comes up when clicking a link asking what app I want to use to open said link, it just goes to the default browser automatically.

It like this on three ICS roms on my Rezound I've used.

There is a App Associations setting in the settings menu that seems to be messing up the way that it works.
[General Questions and Answers] voyager_s:
From my experience...go into the settings menu of the the handset and select apps. Next scroll to your current browser under the applications list and click on it.

Then scroll down all the way and select 'clear defaults'. Confirm. That should do the trick and whenever u click on any link in any app it will prompt you to select an option such as YouTube or browser instead of just opening up automatically in a browser.
[General Questions and Answers] couchmonkey:
That's the deal, clearing defaults doesn't do anything . There is no more prompt, just launches the browser.

Did anyone resolve this issue? I also have link association issues unique to ICS as well.

What is with that? Same with links in gtalk.:mad:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _highway_:
As of a few days ago, when I take a few pictures, my phone tells me that my SD card is not mounted or not present. The only way to get rid of this is to restart the phone and it's detected again - until I take a few more pictures.

I already ran home, after the first time it did this, and backed up my entire SD card to my PC via USB.

Do you guys think this is a hardware issue or something buggy with a ROM?

The phone is a HTC Thunderbolt running Liquid GingerBread v3.2 AOSP . . .

I really don't do a lot with this phone, but the camera I use often, so this is a real deal breaker for me.

I am very soft on this phone, and don't abuse it - I am not sure if that would make a difference.

Generally I would try another ROM, but I wanted to post here and get some thoughts on the matter before I did something drastic, like going back to HTC Sense . . .

My phone has insurance, so that is a plus if it's a hardware issue.

Any ideas? I've checked google . . .
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
Have you tried re-flashing the ROM? Not with a full wipe, but a normal re-flash of the ROM zip which will format the /system partition and install the ROM again. Just to get everything in order. Also, wipe cache and dalvik cache in recovery.

You said you're gentle with the phone, so the memory card becoming loose and unseated is unlikely. Just check to be sure though. Maybe it's a ROM issue, so then re-flashing seems likely to help. Unless it's a problem with the ROM that many people have reported. If that still doesn't work, you can take a nandroid backup of your phone and try another popular ROM for a few days (no need to go back to stock Sense), just to see if the problem still occurs. Then you'll know for sure if it's a software or hardware problem.

Anyone recommend 1 of the 2 for the aosp lockscreen? I don't really know what they are
[Verizon Droid Charge] shrike1978:
They change the Java heapsize to whatever size they're labeled as. My experience with playing with that number on past roms is that while it will make them less frequent, it will not eliminate them completely, and there are other considerations when changing it as well.

dwitherell posted a potential fix in the Tweaked thread this morning. It will eliminate the music control widget from the lockscreen, under the theory that it is causing the hotboots. I'm testing it and so far, so good. You won't have music controls on the lockscreen, but hopefully, you won't get hotboots.

I have a situation that I cannot find elsewhere on this forum, so I have to start a new thread.

I rooted and loaded CWM on my wife’s Kindle about 6 weeks ago, with KFU. Everything was fine until a few days ago my wife let the kindle battery die. I charged it up and booted it and everything seemed fine. A few hours later I looked at it and on the screen was the yellow triangle with the android, (not firefirefire logo). I held down the power button for 20 sec. and when it rebooted, I went into clockwork recovery. I then wiped cache partition and Dalvik cache. Rebooted everything seemed fine. Then it happened again, same fix, no problems. Then it happened again, same solution. We haven’t let the battery go down below 20% since.

Any ideas as to what happened or how to fix it?

If this has been covered before, I apologize. Please point me in the right direction.
