It sounds like a runaway app. If it's Maps, you may need to reinstall the Rom.

Hello all.

I just bought my galaxy s3 today and i've been having some problems. I've done a search throughout the forums and i couldn't find anything on it so i thought i'll give it a shot by posting a thread.

After i receive a text message the notification won't go away. Even after i have read and replied the notification still stays.

Also i have a folder made to keep all the apps that use on the front screen. after pressing the home button to close an app the folder opens up.

i googled these problems and have found questions without any answers. If anyone can shed a light on what the issue is and how to fix it i'd greatly appreciate it. thanks!
[HTC Rezound] dsb9938:
Greetings! I hope you are having a fine day!

I am writing this to try to alleviate future issues for some of you.

Sunday night, I posted instructions for installing a certain update manually. Now, I am S-Off, and just assumed when I wrote it that anybody else flashing stuff like that would be too. This was apparently my mistake.

So in an effort to try to prevent future problems I am writing this, and hoping many of you will read it, and pay attention. Although I know that usually doesn't happen.

So, here we go:

If you are planning to manually flash anything other than a ROM, you should be S-Off. There is no excuse not to be, and no reason you shouldn't do it.

First, it's completely reversible. Second, it removes the "Unlocked" message from your phone.

It prevents the mainver older issue.

It lets you pretty much flash anything you want, whenever you want, as long as the phone is physically able. This means, if you flash something and it goes wrong, you can flash backwards to what you had before.

After S-Off, you DO NOT HAVE TO UNLOCK!!!!!! I cannot say this enough. S-Off is a step beyond unlocking. This is why we do it!

Reverting to S-On is as simple as flashing a full, released, OTA RUU and issuing a fastboot command to change the flag. Although the only reason I could see to do that is to return the phone.

If you aren't sure that a set of directions apply to you, ask first!

If you are following the directions, and something goes wrong, STOP!!!!!! Do not guess what to do, or try to go backwards unless you know for a fact it will work. Go online and ask for help. If you ask properly, somebody will help you. Some people live for the chance to help others.

When asking for help, say what you had before you started, what you were trying to do (with a link), what step you were on, and what the unexpected result was. POST THE EXACT MESSAGES!!!! Not an abbreviated version.

If a post does not specify that you need to be S-Off, read through the instructions before you start. If you see anything to do with a PH98IMG.zip file, or going into HBOOT, assume you should S-Off first. Simply to be safe.

I know this was all disjointed, but I was simply posting my responses to issues I see all too often that could easily have been avoided, or resolved much easier.

So, to sum up.

S-Off Your Phone!

Thank you!

D

[HTC Rezound] pwned3:
Exactly. Plus educate yourself.
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
also, to add on, if you want to revert to s-on, RUN AN RUU FIRST!!!!!! it will brick your phone if you s-on on a modified/unsigned hboot!! although it is reversible (as i did tonight...derp) it was annoying. also if you want a guide on how to unbrick a rezound bricked by writing security flag 3 with an unsigned hboot, or caused by a damaged hboot via interrupted OTA update/RUU flash on a S-ON device, i will gladly do it, all props to meadows btw
[HTC Rezound] badogg:
Thanks for the write up.

To be honest I am not sure what to do to update my firmware from that 100mb ota after reading that thread several times. Or if I even need to if I don't have a use for the gsm stuff. I am s-off though.

Edit: I forgot to mention, I am running ics firmware on the viper rom.
[HTC Rezound] 86shelby:
If I were a dev, I wouldn't include any options for s-on. It's simple to do, safe enough, and not scary at all.... It makes everyone's life much easier.
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Nice thread, dsb9938, and right on point. Problem is, nobody reads. Nobody looks at the threads above and nobody searches. Alright, not nobody, but not enough people. The way I see it, if you are going to take the responsibility for manipulating the innards of your $200 handset, the least you could do is poke around for the right way to do things before just messing around and thinking Dad will buy you a new handset when you bork it. This Dad won't.

XDA is for people who take responsibility. If you can't handle that, please go play in someone else's sandbox.

If I had a dollar for every post in another current thread here that reflects users not reading posts only a page above, not checking stickies first, not using the search function, or just plain trolling, I could buy several Rezounds just to mess with and still have money left over for a Nexus 7.

[HTC Rezound] Geoi1006:
With all due respect alienating any portion of your user base is generally not good. I'm not s-off but it's only because I haven't been around a pc that's got an internet connection. I appreciate how easy it is but there are still those of us that have life situations that haven't allowed for the whole process yet.
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
You could download the stuff to your phone and transfer it via USB to your computer, or you could use tethering.

It's called being resourceful ;)
[HTC Rezound] Geoi1006:
I see you talking but all I'm seeing is talking down to people. Trying to decide where the constructive portion of this thread is.
[HTC Rezound] keolawills:
I agree more people need to read and remember the rules and posts like this as well. Thank you for posting this, however i do disagree with one thing. I recently upgraded my firmware to the ICS update OTA(not the ICS update itself but the update that was pushed shortly after) which updated my hboot to 2.27, Locked. All is fine until I needed to flash a boot.img because of boot manager. No big deal until I get a "remote not allowed" return on a fastboot flash boot boot.img command. For some reason I can not for the life of me create a flashable zip to be flashed in recovery, and I'm too lazy to take my sdcard out to put a PH98IMG.ZIP file on there to flash boot.img in bootloader. So I had to unlock my bootloader to perform the fastboot command needed to get my phone back. Until there is a patched hboot 2.27, you will need to unlock your bootloader, or downgrade to jb_hboot. Just my 2 cents...
[HTC Rezound] putney1477:
Great post. Thanks for writing it up.

I tried numerous times to get s off, and it just didnt work for me. I dont have a land line or a spare phone so I am very dependant on my phone. I can't have it in non working phone.

I appreciate all the work the drvs do and all the people who help us out to make our phones top notch. However, I do like how the devs have s on and s off roms :)
[HTC Rezound] scy1192:
I don't S-Off because brickings are always possible when S-Off, and S-On hasn't really inconvenienced me.
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
That's definitely talking down to people. It's a big wave of arrogance emitting from this thread. Keep in mind a lot of these dudes are young Btw.
[HTC Rezound] dsb9938:
Actually, bricking your phone, as unlikely as that is, is less likely when s-off since there are more options to recovery if you mess up.

D

.
[HTC Rezound] dsb9938:
Um, I wasn't talking down to anybody. And I bet if you add together almost any two peoples ages who posted, I am still older.

My original post was aimed at all the people who either PM me, or find me on IRC, and make me spend hours of my time fixing problems because they didn't, follow directions, pay attention, make a backup, etc.

And I don't care what anybody on here says, having your phone s-off makes recovery in the event of a mistake, or bad flash much more likely than if you are s-on.

If any of what I said gives you a problem, please feel free to ignore it, at your own peril. I don't give advice because people don't need it.

D

.
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
Did I quote you? Lol.

But since you feel like talking to me.. There are reasons to not be s-off. Some people have shaky hands. Some people don't computers have computers that are accessible for these uses. Example, only get on the library computers to type papers. Roommate don't want you putting phone junk on their computer.

True
[HTC Rezound] dsb9938:
You didn't specify whom you were talking about.

And those aren't reasons, they are excuses.

But I think we've had enough on this thread anyway.

Nah, kids these days just want everything handed to them. I used to fix electronics, mod game systems, computer builds and repairs. If money is a problem, why even bother asking about a ROM and "setting up" a bounty thread. If you really had the intention of making a ROM you would have just dropped one without asking about it. You came to entice the sheep and hopefully get them to buy you a phone.

[Desire HD General] Nutriment:
So I have Telus Desire HD that I'd like to use with Koodo (I already have the sim card) and I tried the AAHK to root/unlock it. Everything was going smooth until it asked me to press the power button in HBOOT to continue, I did so and now the phone is stuck on weird boot loops at the HTC logo. I can go in HBOOT and android stock recovery (is that what it's called?) but as soon as I put an sdcard in the phone. Note: I cannot boot in HBOOT with an sdcard in the phone, it will just freeze and boot loop (I have no idea why, and the sd card is working perfectly fine in my SGS and my friend's desire Z. I have a couple questions, is my phone bricked? I don't think I have any backup (I don't mind losing everything, nothing of value was in it). What should I do to get back to a stock (or rooted/unlocked rom)? Right now my priority is to get to a normal rom, I'll probably just unlock the sim card normally (by paying) as it seems unlocking HTC phones is 45 steps longer/harder than doing so on my SGS. Thanks a lot guys!

P:S Sorry for my english I probably made a couple mistakes (french canadian reporting in!)
[Desire HD General] xbiggyl:
Download the RUU corresponding to your phone's region from the following link:

http://www.filefactory.com/f/efa28fefafc4af9c/

Run the RUU on your PC with your DHD connected via USB.

This will restore your DHD to default.
[Desire HD General] Nutriment:
When I launch the RUU (.exe) I follow all the steps but it says error 170 (phone is not plugged in) but I'm using the stock cable. Are my usb drivers not good? I'm using HTC sync. Or did I download the wrong version and it does not recognize the telus desire HD as the good one?

edit: I followed the tutorial for this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=737728

as I saw Android 1.0 with a yellow mark next to it in the device manager and now when I try to launch the RUU it says the battery is below 30%. For some reasons when I plug the Desire HD the orange led would light and then close after a couple of minutes (not charging) so I don't know what the problem is, the battery was working perfectly fine before.

edit2: The led is now green with means the smartphone is fully charged but the RUU keeps telling me that the battery power is below 30%. That is getting very annoying!
[Desire HD General] xbiggyl:
You need to recharge your phone to above 30% in order for the RUU to work.

Charge your phone for a couple hours and then try again.

how many times have i seen this problem,u wont be able to run the ruu from ur computer whatever u do coz ur phone will never show up coz u have messed up ur bootloader, the tutorial that u followed above for adb works only for phones who have driver problem and not for messed up bootloader. i am not sure if u can run ruu (PD98IMG.zip) from fastboot, coz u said ur device is s-on, but may b give it a try,U will have to install the RUU (PD98IMG) from fastboot (Make sure not to flash a Froyo RUU on a phone shipped with gingerbread).. i am sure u knw how to flash the RUU using PD98IMG from fastboot,if u dnt let me know i will tell u.. just do it and everything will be fine and u will return to stock and u will also loose root,so u will have to root it again.P.S ur battery is fully charged its just that u used the wrong tutorial for ur phone to make adb work its behaving strangly. try using a sd card say 1gb or 2gb n see if ur phones hangs with the sd card..good luck..n dnt worry i am sure someone will surely sort out ur problem..cheers...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aycockonxion:
r4ins is going to keep up with the AOKP Jellybean project since armyvet is not, and gmillz will also probably keep building on their ROM. I'm on the 8/5 with the 1a chopsticks base and InstigatorX 6.2 kernel. If you're experiencing a "choppy" feel, check out either the Darkside or InstigatorX kernel and pick a good frequency governor. That can help a lot. On any of these early ROM's you're going to still get FC's and reboots.. they're Alpha's. If avoiding that is the most important thing to you, I would stick to CM9, Chimera, SkyICS, or a similar ICS ROM.
