[Acer Iconia A500] my95z34:
I finally got to install the latest AOKP after realizing it needed the ICS bootloader. But whenever I turn off the screen it instantly reboots. It does this every single time. It would do this back on one of the old versions of AOKP that I was able to install on the GB bootloader.

Anyone else experience anything like this? Or any ideas how to fix it? I'm assuming it's some kind of kernel issue, but I don't see many alternatives for the A500 like you do for other devices.

Thanks in advance.
[Acer Iconia A500] BrianDigital:
Well there other roms based off acers ics that for me is running good.

For aokp your going to have to wait till cm9 gets more updates, so that aokp can run smoother. Maybe try aokp agian after the cm guys for our device gets nights running.
[Acer Iconia A500] my95z34:
Yeah, I was running (I think it's called..) Flexreaper. That would run fine. But I run AOKP on my GNex so I'd like to keep them both the same, lol.

I might have to switch until this issue gets ironed out.
[Acer Iconia A500] bfranklin1986:
Turn off crt animation
[Acer Iconia A500] my95z34:
I'll give that a try when I go home for lunch. Thank you. =]
[Acer Iconia A500] my95z34:
Welp, that was it! Thank you!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fachadick:
I ran the HTC bootloader unlock last night, and now the gallery app doesn't see any of the photos that were in my dcim photos folder before I ran it. It sees any new photo I take, but but not any of the old ones in the same folder. I've remounted the sdcard and power cycled the phone with no luck. Any thoughts?

Sent from my blah blah blah blah
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] doitda:
Have you tried to run a fix permissions to see if that allows the files to be indexed properly?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fachadick:
Not sure what you mean by that, so no, but they show up correctly in es file explorer (if that helps). How would I be able to find out if I need to fix permissions? It's probably also worth mentioning that other image apps, like quickpik, have no problem seeing all of the photos in that folder.

Thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] doitda:
Well if other apps see them, then the permissions may be fine.

have you tried clearing the cache through the Apps menu for Gallery?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fachadick:
I have - not only that, I've moved some pictures into a temporary folder to see if it would see them in a different folder, and it did. I've moved them back to the regular folder, and it still sees them in the new folder I created. I've even deleted that new folder completely, but it still sees all of those photos in this now non-existant folder.

What the hell? How do you get the gallery app to refresh properly?

Edit - and now it's duplicating gallerries. WTH? Is there any way to reinstall the stock gallery?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fachadick:
Here's what I did. Presumably this will fix all sorts of gallery issues.

1 - install SDrescan from the play store. This is the fourth sdcard rescanner I've tried to use to fix this, and the only one that worked correctly

2 - in app manager, stop the "Gallery" app, and clear data and cache

3 - in app manager clear data for the "Media Storage" app

4 - run the SDrescan app from step 1, wait for it to finish

5 - wait a few minutes, reboot, wait some more, and the gallery should be correct.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] SwitchBack:

[Kindle Fire General] pmhking84:
Hi, i have never opened a new thread,

but this time i want to share my solution for the 5 second bootloop.

If your kindle fire is not turned on and it keeps showing yellow triangle and blinking when you try to charge, this is the solution for you.

I experienced same issue today and googled and search xda.

but i could not find any easy solution without other cable or tools.

I accidently? find this solution so it may not work on all cases and may be cause some other problem, but it worked fine for me.

Solution

1. Connect your kindle fire cable to the wall charger first, but

do not connect with KF yet.

2. hold the power button for 3seconds

(nothing will happen as it does not have enough power)

3. keep press the button and connect the kindle fire

4. done.

Even if the charger is connected, the KF will not turn on.

So the power is not wasted and the KF will be charged.

Leave it for at least 30mins.

and then turn it on

Congratulation! Your kindle fire is BACK.
[HD2 General] zinko_pt:
I´m experience, since 2 months ago, rebooting the phone and losing all the phone´s info.

Since I´m only into Android ROMs, I install my select ROM (BoyPPC, Mwakious, Sense, MIUI, etc.) according to the chef/developers instruction.

After some reboots, I start to install apps (task killer, 3g watchdog, myphoneexplorer, games, and others). Some apps go to SD (ap2sd) and I still have plenty of space for further app installations.

No problem until here.

The problem starts when I decide to do a reboot, "just to settle" all things, after 8 or 10h of usage.

When I enter the PIN, there are always some errors, like "Sense stopped working" or "Weather stop responding" or whatever. The several screens are clean of widgets and shortcuts. There are no contacts or calendar data.

And I cannot add widgets, just app shortcuts.

Mtty1.42 doesn´t report any bad blocks.

Any ideas?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
try disabling the login pin, , then you can see if that is the cause.
[HD2 General] zinko_pt:
Thanks, but I really need that security feature.

[Edit] I get the following erors (stopped unexpectedly) when I wipe Dalvik cache and fix permissions:

com.google.android.youtube

net.rgruet.android.g3watchdogpro

android.process.acore
[HD2 General] zinko_pt:
Is it possible that mtty is wrong and I do have bad blocks?
[HD2 General] hengsheng120:
Did you try flashing the roms more than once to get rid of errors?
[HD2 General] zinko_pt:
Yes, and it seems to be a connection between uploading phonebook/sms/calendar data and freezing at reboot. But I´m not sure.

I´ve choosen a bit old, but stable ROM (BOYPPC MIUI V35 CLK) and it´s the second time I install it and crashes. I haven´t moved apps to SD yet, so it can´t be the SD card.

I also suspect from Advance Task Killer and 3G Watchdog. But i need these two kind of apps to control traffic and release memory.

This is a inglorious quest, like finding a needle in the...

If only I could access some sort of log :( ...

I will insist in a 3rd install of this ROM (very ligh 150-5), this time I will not install any apps before a couple of reboots and all-around testing.
[HD2 General] zinko_pt:
Still have the same problem.

Severall ROMs and the same outcome. Have to wipe Dalvik cache and fix permissions. Sometimes it only stables after restoring to factory default.

I will do a install without a SD Card and give it a spin for a couple of days.

I´m just going nuts with this.:mad:
[General Questions and Answers] jotan.:
Hello,

Recently,I tried to flash my LG GT540 CyanOgen 7 to different ROM..As for the new ROM,I needed a Android 2.1,Which I downloaded and reflashed the phone using KDZ Updater,and the phone was always stuck on boot images,so I tried it several times then my phone died..

It Does not wants to start in Download Mode,Fastboot mode neither Recovery Mode...

I tried everything,KDZ Updater tells that it cant find the phone,LG Updater cannot find the phone either..

Can someone help me ?

What should I do?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Joel Chan:
Just came across this article. Anyone wants to try? ;)

[Optimus One, P500, V General] recreation012:
I dont see any reason why we need those nav keys on a very small 3.0 inch screen.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Joel Chan:
Many users have complained about their damaged hardware buttons, so this is certainly a solution.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] recreation012:
Ok, a reason? could be. But what if your buttons like the physical menu button is now useless or brocken.. how would you even flash a .zip on a recovery then? will this on screen nav buttons help you?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] myawan:
they are certainly not for you ;) ...... I have always loved on screen buttons.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Joel Chan:
Same! I could think of so many what ifs... What if your screen was cracked, what if your fingers are too big for the on screen buttons :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] aspee:
Thanks for the info.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Joel Chan:
Will you be working on it? ;)

No, but CWM Touch will help you :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sunshines4u:
I'm going back to iphone.

This thing force closes way too much.... I know rooting and custom ROM can address some of it but I feel iphone is still optimized better than android. OK maybe I don't know but I just never had any issues with their hardware or apps.

Yeah I guess I'm not the type of person who really appreciates customization capability. I realized ONLY thing I like about this particular android is the large screen.

Sorry this is just a bad morning and my android is acting all ****ed up. Happens way too often.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Phoneguy589:
If you are new to Android coming from the iPhone then you'll feel that way for a bit. I did miss my iPhone but once these awesome devs clear up some bugs you'll be really happy....if you like customizing. I couldn't stand iTunes so once I got around the noobness point, Android is so much nicer. The iPhone is more for people that just want to push an icon like my wife and kids.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] astang99:
Thats wierd, im stock and i rarely get any force closes. Usually the only FC's i get are due to apps on their end. I love how everyone always says how the apple apps never crash, blah blah blah. I guess stupid tech will always have its place
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Android The Greek:
Yea if you are stock you shouldn't have too many problems. The beauty of the xda forum is you can tell us your problem and people get together to help solve it. Id rather use xda than talk to a genius any day.

Tell us what's wrong so we can help you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] p51d007:
Most likely a bad device.

I have had mine since mid December...all stock, only updates via Kies.

It's been more stable than 2.2.2 on my Dell Streak.

As for a 5" iPhone, well, Jobs is gone so anything is possible.

You watch though...if Apple comes out with a screen anywhere near the

size of 5", the iphone fanbois will trumpet it out that it is an innovation and

the best thing in the world LOL.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] drksilenc:
lol you do realize stuff crashes consistantly on the iphone it just doesnt tell you right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] StarLog:
Force Closes are from improperly written apps. this happens, there are so many varients in the Android world it is hard to keep up with the changes.

Apple has a set screen size depending on the device, Android has many different screen sizes.

If you like to DUMB down then go back to the iPhone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tyler79durdan:
First I was gonna tell you "see ya", but I guess I'll say that I have no, not one, force close and my device is closer to me than wrist watch or glasses... My device functions this way because I read about everyone else problems and solutions and either avoid the base situation, or utilize the communities experiences for the solution... Our Android family bought our grandfather an iPhone because of his age... Lmao. Does that tell you anything? If you must go then thanks for stopping by, but if you can stay, we will do our level best to match your enthusiasm and drive...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ferchope:
i'd be very happy with a g note running webos .that would be great
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Android The Greek:
Blasphemy :mad:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] madman604:
lol! you must not need apps at all
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
There was actually a study published a few months ago that showed that major iPhone apps actually crash more often than their Android counterparts; however, since the iPhone doesn't display a message to the user when that happens, and it doesn't give the users an option to report the crash, most iPhone users perceive fewer crashes. (In other words, they simply think that they must have hit the Home or Close buttons since all the iPhone does is crash back to their homescreens).

The second theory on why this is the case is that it's much easier and faster to release app updates on Android markets. Android devs can easily roll out responsive updates while iPhone devs have to submit every single update to Apple's ridiculous approval process.

Story here:

The truth will set you free. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Theoriginalgiga:
I've been running the I717 since day one and I've gotten exactly 1 FC from a weird app I downloaded. once I deleted it I was good. Try doing a factory reset and start fresh. download apps that have 4 or more stars. My phone has been a champ from day one with all the crap I throw at it (not even screen slowdowns like some are reporting). If you don't like it, you don't like it, there's no harm in that. All I know is my Ipod frustrates me something fierce when I use it so irritations go both ways. Hope you stick around, the stock ICS should be wandering through in the next couple of months. If you don't want to wait, I hear there's awesome Roms of ICS already. check it out. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] reyderosquillas:
I'm going back to iPhone as soon as someone trades me back on CL

What I've had from start to finish? Tilt, Touch Pro 2, G1, BB 8120, BB FLIP, G1, 3GS, Vibrant, EVO, Hero, Epic, EVO, Nexus S, the sprint WP7 can't recall name, EVO, Epic, EVO, EVO3D, 4S Sprint, 4S AT&T, Note AT&T.

I am the most unbiased person possible.

I switched from the iPhone back to Android because the screen was annoying for Draw Something, the edges on the phone are somewhat sharp & annoyed me in long typing sessions, no LTE.

What I've experienced on the Note, & why I said when I went back to the iPhone after the EVO3D that I would never go back to Android: LAG.

What good is customization if everything lags. What's the point of customization anyway? It's not like a computer that has incredible battery life & the customization is actually useful. It's just pretty widgets & UI mods.

I'm also shocked at how many ads are in the free apps compared to years ago.

Anyway, I'll go back to my sound app ecosystem with no lag. On top of that, the apps seem to run a lot smoother & take advantage of the A5 dual core vs the dual core in the Note.

+ I've spent way too much $$ on apps for iOS LOL. Sure I could get some for free on Android, but some simply aren't avail. Some I would have to buy again. Unfortunately, they all run better on iOS.

I will miss the s pen functions (and the Sammy cameras always seem better - I am disappointed by the 4S camera), but I'll survive. The only Android I want is the ASUS Padphone or an ASUS tablet (I had the Transformer #1 for a month, oh & of course I've had an iPad in the past, but prefer the Android tablet OS)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kevinallen4325:
I haven't had an fc since i flashed team perfections latest pics rom. IPhones might be solid but they're so damn boring and plain
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] MUFC17JW:
Then Samsung should sue them for "copying"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kiltedthrower:
I feel like the microwave has screwed everything up. Of something takes a half second to open, we're screaming lag!!!

I like tech stuff but it's still a phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] reyderosquillas:
I'm not talking about waiting for things to open.. I'm talking about stutter lag & multiple second to go back to the home screen lag. Legitimate lag.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Android The Greek:
In my experience with android devices the major culprit for lag is on screen widgets that update. If you set up your device like ios with nothing but apps you will see no lag. If you use widgets and stuff you might redraw.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Theoriginalgiga:
Interesting observations. Honestly I see my Ipod lag a whole lot more than my note (or even my streak) with much much fewer apps. I mean I use my ipod for pandora, email and rage comics and running all three at once it lags something fierce. I can do all that with my note plus play temple run and not see a stutter. As for the in app adverts, apple is just as bad, but the funnier thing is, the ration of paid vs free apps in IOS is a lot higher in favor of paid apps than in android, which is probably why you see fewer ads in IOS. One thing I noticed with IOS is most apps, especially the free ones, rarely have over 3 stars, makes me wonder if they're really worth the time... All I know is, between IOS and android, I prefer android hands down, I can customize my UI how I want to, I can have widgets if I'd like and do virtually whatever I want with it. if you want I can talk with my buddy to see if he'll trade his 4S strait across for your note.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] reyderosquillas:
I don't use widgets. I'm also a former repair tech for Sprint.

Anyway, what I'm trying to get across is, these phones should work out of the box. I used to flash roms, but I don't enjoy it. It's a major waste of time.

I shouldn't have to download 500 keyboards to find the one that works the best. I'd go for the One X, because I've always loved HTC keyboards, but we all know the One X has it's flaws & limitations.

I'd go for the G Nexus, but no LTE there... maybe less lag? Risk worth taking? Right now I can trade for a 4S 32 ge bees vs. the 4S 16 gb + $75 (too much i know) I traded to get the Note. G Nex may/may not come with cash... but then where do I go from the G Nex? back to the 16?

Etc., etc.

---------- Post added at 12:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:09 PM ----------

i kept my task draw empty to preserve that precious 4S battery LOL. so i never lagged.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
I understand, some people like to be told what is right for them, rather than having choices. That is why the iPhone makes sense for them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] drksilenc:
wow really what lag are you getting on your device? i had lag one time on this and that was when i was running a rom that would fc because the contacts app was broken. also you state shutter lag? really you do realize there are settings to adjust also are you using a pos class 2 sd card or a class 10 sd card. i dont get this lag and im using a faster card. have fun on your limited device on your walled garden.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Android The Greek:
Iphone doesn't have lte either

One and nexus have that storage flaw. Id honestly go sg3 or stay with the note. Give it two weeks more. We will have ics. See how that experience is before you jump. This phone should have been released with ics.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Theoriginalgiga:
I agree with you that a phone should work flawlessly out of the box and that's been my experience with the Note. You mentioned you kept your task box empty on your 4S to save battery life, have you attempted to do the same with your note?

with the keyboards, the GB keyboard is more than usable, moreso than the Ipod imo. the multiple keyboard downloads is all user preference. I know you mentioned LTE, if you're going back to a 4S what's the point of pointing that out? just my thoughts

---------- Post added at 09:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 AM ----------

What's the point of issuing an attacking comment about something like that. Kinda shows that you don't have anything valid to add.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] reyderosquillas:
stutter lag, not shutter lag. i've got a class 10 of course.

walled garden? yeah, i don't need/use widgets. well i did use the gmail widget on an ICS rom, but that was it.

also, for weather, there's an ios app that keeps the temperature as a badge, which is all i need.

it's stock right now, was lagging crazy on w/e ICS rom the guy had on it. i definitely miss the ICS features.

---------- Post added at 12:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:29 PM ----------

yeah i forgot about the nexus no SD ugh!

i really hope ICS is smoother than the "official leaks"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Theoriginalgiga:
I'm running a class 10, and long story short, past a class 4, your phone can't operate at the card's full speed so it really doesn't matter, not to mention most people install to the internal memory so that's kinda moot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
Attack? I disagree. My mother who is 60 doesn't want choices. She wants Apple to just give her one phone, one OS version, one keyboard, etc. She doesn't want to customize or have any other choices available to her as it is too confusing. So it makes sense for people like her.

Sounds like this is exactly what the OP and other pro-Apple people here are stating. They don't want to choose from options, they want something that is shipped as-is out of the box.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Android The Greek:
I here you im tired of trying Roms that say their amazing the flashing stock and all that. I am of the opinion of anything that's not stock, cm9 official, or aokp official release will have problems. I am probably as impatient as you but im sure that one that stock Rom drops everything will get better. Every leak has improved by leaps and bounds. We had 4.03 now we are getting 4.04. I don't think Samsung will disappoint.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Theoriginalgiga:
Fair point, I apologize for my previous comment.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Scythe024:
i had the iphone 3g and iphone 4. Both of them had a lot of fc's and i often had to do hard restarts on them to get them back up. They dont just stall for a few seconds then tell me the app has crashed like android does. The main culprits of my FC right now on the latest ICS leak is both devices that arent even ment for the device or are in beta (ie:flipboard which has rarely fc at all and who'shere? which im beta testing)

i dont see apple releasing a gnote size phone within the next few years so have fun waiting
