[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weeds8809:
Hi all,

I'm using RR 3.0.9 with siyah 4.1.5 by changmin.

I encountered the below issue:

whenever I hold back to kill on whatsapp, after a period of phone on time(eg. 1 or 2 hours at least), the phone freezes, and the only thing active is the power menu to reboot phone. You won't be able to do anything unless you reboot your phone.

Anyone encountered the same issue?

4wipes done but the problem still persists.:crying:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
first Clear Data/cache of Whatsapp and then try:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weeds8809:
Thank you for the advice, but I did mention 4 wipes done.. doesn't 4wipes include wiping of data and cache? >.<"
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
I have whatsapp here and I've done that many time and my phone never froze.

1. Are you 100% sure the problem is caused by killing whatsapp?

2. Have you tried to isolate the problem?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weeds8809:
if you're talking about isolating, how about I never had problem with HBTK feature making my phone freeze on other apps..

yepp..it can't be freezing with I am using a different launcher isn't it? that means it doesn't have any issue with launcher too.. just HBTK and whatsapp specifically..

perhaps you would wanna recommend you ideas in mind that you think I have not done isolating the problem?

I will then tell you whether I have done it or not.. =)

tyvm and appreciate for that..:good:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
Try this:

1. Use titanium backup pro to freeze all your user apps except whatsapp,

2. use the default launcher,

3. Restart your phone.

4 test if the problem persists.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weeds8809:
alright, I'll try that =)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miseryguts:
Just wondering if there is any way to remove this and the google/microphone icons it contains & if it is possible, can icons be placed in the space it used to occupy (top & left side of screen depending on orientation)

Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lennonfan:
Good question, I was thinking the same.

Sure you will need to be rooted tho :confused:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcat007:
I don't have a microphone icon (that I'm aware of). Do you mean the notification bar at top? Many launchers let you hide that bar. The only other thing I have are the 3 soft buttons, and you can't do anything with those unless you root, and even then I'm not sure if you can do much with them.

I'm new to launchers and I'm giving apex launcher a go. One thing that has been annoying me is whenever I click a notification and exit the app that opens it reverts to the stock launcher. Is there anything I can do about that? Is it the same with other launchers?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bacon_n_icecream:
Maybe the default launcher is set as to default. Try going into settings and finding the default launcher app and click clear defaults. There should also be an option somewhere in the Apex Launcher settings that allow you to make it your default launcher. That way it'll stick. I've been using Apex on my galaxy SII and nexus 7 since I got them and it's been working great for me so if you can figure it out, stick around for a bit, I'm sure you'll like it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KFR42:
Thanks for the quick reply. I already have it as default launcher. The home button works fine and goes to apex, its just literally when I've clicked on a notification.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bacon_n_icecream:
Thats weird, maybe you can try uninstalling and reinstalling if you haven't already. Also make sure you're using the most recent one since anything that is 1.2.x isn't really compatible with jelly bean (the current version is 1.3.1). But like I said earlier, its been working fine for me and I'm sure there would be complaints in the review section in the play store if many others also had this problem so perhaps it just doesn't play well with your nexus. If you're rooted and running custom rom maybe you can try reflashing with a full wipe to make sure to clean up any remaining problems. Thats all I can think of. Sorry I can't be of any more help. Good luck

PS. Nova is pretty good too as well as go launcher so if it doesn't work out, maybe try those to see if the problem continues.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KFR42:
Ah, figured it out. The tablet just needed a restart. It's all working fine now.
[General Questions and Answers] Maceee:
Hey guys. I have Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman device, rooted, with stock ROM and my problem is that there's no sound while typing. Like on CM ROMS there's sound while typing. There's .ogg files named KeypressStandard, KeypressSpacebar etc. , I replaced them with files from CM9 ROM, but there's still no sound... Maybe there's a missing part of the code Sony put to our devices or maybe I just don't know how to enable it? I really like to hear a short ticking soung while typing messages, so any help would be appreciated. :)

Hi ~

Finally I got on cm10 nightly newer (cm-10-20121003-NIGHTLY-fascinatemtd.zip) but I've been dealing with no ringtone for quite a while now.

I have no clue why it is happening. I get notification sounds just fine, but no ringtone.

How can I fix it?

Temporary I am trying to use a custom ringtone (.mp3) that I've been using now.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apnews:
I found out myself

Go to Settings>Sounds>Volumes>

Drag each slider to mute and release. Drag to any other volume and the sounds should play again.

Going to silent mode and back doesn't fix the issue, the slider must be dragged to mute then readjusted.

It is certainly due to profiles. Delete all profiles and create your own, you should be good then.

Hello!

I have a samsung galaxy SII that has lost all network connection (wifi works though). It's just a check of the pillars and cant either call or text.

When you go in and check Baseband it says unknown. Similarly, IMEI, serial number and all network related stuff.

I have searched and found EFS Pro but it did not work following the wizard.

Is there anyone out there who can help me get my phone working again?

Would appreciate any help very much!

Im running CM9 stable by the way.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Restore your EFS backup. No EFS backup (Gee, that would be a shock. Everyone does those :rolleyes:) either service centre & explain what you've been doing with the phone (and hand over the contents of your wallet to have it repaired), or if you contact Odia by PM (and wait patiently for a reply, do not hound him) he might be able to recover it for you.

Have you tried to reflash baseband through Odin?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
Please answer these questions:

1. Did your problem occur after flashing in CWM recovery with your phone charging?

1. Do you have a good /efs backup?

2. Have you ever flashed Siyah kernel before?

3. Post screenshots of Settings>About phone, and Settings>About phone>Status on your phone.

thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KUMAz:
No I have not tried it yet, you do not have a good guide on how to do it?

Thanks for reply!

1. I do not know, I got the phone from a friend who had the same problem with it. He ran the phone stock. So I flashed the CM9.1 and after it worked it in about a week and then it stopped working again simply. He bought the phone used so do not know what is done with it before. However, I had the charger when I tried to flash it yesterday, it is something that you should not do?

2. I tried some kind of stock EFS I found, but did not get better for it. Then if you go into the EFS folder in your phone, there are. .bak files are dated 2011 which might be ok?

3.I got it as soon as I get access to the phone.

Thanks for reply!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
1. Yes, it has something to do with it. Don't flash in CWM recovery when connected to charger. It's a known bug.

2. I meant do you have a real backup of your /efs .tar or .rar? Check your internal and external SD for anything efs

3. Ok

IMEI lost when copying nandroid backup from old phone to new

Beware.

After receiving a new Nexus 5 to replace my cracked but still working one I immediately rooted/unlocked it and then copied my old N5 backup to it. Used WugFresh Tool Kit 1.8.4 to root and TWRP to recover and both phones were at Android 4.4.4 so what could go wrong? (I thought) Somewhere along the way the new N5's IMEI number was lost (=0) and so no service. Tried factory reset and recopying but no luck.

I factory restored the phone and returned it to Google. I expect some penalty for my antics. I will get delivery on another N5 today and will refrain from tinkering for awhile. Fun.

Correction to above: The newest Nexus 5 received today came with Android 4.4.2 not 4.4.4 as I assumed (and perhaps incorrectly) for the new N5 described above. This could have been the deal breaker, copying a 4.4.4 system over a 4.4.2 one, that screwed the IMEI (?).
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Epsinyan:
now that the newest ICS leak that looks so close to OTA has JB upgrade support, will we be able to use cheesecake to find JB leaks?

that sounds likely to me..

With that we could have a new kernel to work with... (probably 3.0.31) and bootloader unlock research can continue.

Im wondering if Moto ever actually worked on a unlocked bootloader for bionic and an early build will still have it for development reasons.

Of course, I cant be sure that 247 will be the OTA, or if the build they go with for updates to JB will come later.

It sill might be a good idea to check the servers anyways, for those who are on 247 already.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SamuriHL:
Cheesecake no longer works on ics. They implemented new security that breaks it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Epsinyan:
Let me guess.. since .235

I guess this thread is worthless. How will we get our leaks now?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SamuriHL:
No, the security on the cdt.bin partition doesn't relate to the update framework security. Nonetheless, there are people that are keeping 905 phones so they can continue to cheesecake for us.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] danifunker:
I might go between .232 and .905 in case I really want to use ICS, but I actually just got a bionic for this task. Although, I have only been able to download .246 once... Is it just me or have the servers been empty for bionic over the last few days?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SamuriHL:
247 is on qa1 still I believe. I can't remember. I have someone that checks every couple days. He got us 244, 246, and 247.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Epsinyan:
So cheesecake for jelly bean might be viable after all?

I hope youre still around when moto decides to lock us out from fxz back to ICS, I love your House of Bionic. <3
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SamuriHL:
Cheesecake is viable for any bionic that remains on 905. And I know one or two that will be cause they bought them specifically for cheesecake. Remember it can be used to check for updates for more than just the Bionic. It can be used to check for any moto phone/version if you know what you're doing. It's rumored than an engineering 6.8.248 build (that would install on top of 247) is already being worked on. It won't install on a retail phone, but, it's a sign that JB is already being worked on even before ICS goes OTA.

polarem family

I don't think that is normal. I have the GT-P3113 and have flashed mutliple ROM including CM10 and AOKP AOKP being my favorite). I have not run into that issue before. I would say, make sure you have the last Recovery, but I have not used the Rom you are flashing though, so it could be the ROM. I would say...try to flash another ROM like AOKP and see if still is an issue. If it is I am going to say it has something to do with the Tablet or something went wrong in rooting or flashing.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bark777:
It is normal for the pre-released stock Samsung JB ROM or variants of this ROM (RomsWell). Sheez.

Personally I can't decide if I sould go with AOSP or sammy based roms. I find pros and cons with both. I really like the features of the roms with full TW, but I hate the look and feel. I love the look and feel on the vanilla roms, but I find some major bugs (running CM10 latest nightly) :S particularly with the camera (force close when i use flash is the biggest, as I dont care for effects)...

To start with, I'm flash addict and always trying to flash new roms/firmwares. However after flashing one of the newest samsung firmware i got this little red exlamation mark:

I have tried to reset flash counter in a lot of ways but it always stayed at number "1" (After you reset with triangle away latest, opening app again shows 0 flash counter but after reboot it increases to 1). Even if my flash counter was 5, after reset it was staying with 1. Seems that samsung introduced some security improvements against reseting flash counter for galaxy s3.

But one xda member InsteadWoolf published solution to reset flash counter:

1- Reset via Triangle Away

2- Turn off phone and go to download mode.

3- Then flash via odin pc the stock firmware you want.

After this method flash counter is 0. However if you go for custom rom or not stock kernel, that red exlamation mark comes back and flash counter increases to 1.

BIG CREDITS TO InsteadWoolf

So what firmware are you claiming Samsung has hacked as i have yet to see this on any build .

[Galaxy S III General] elspanish88:
This isn't anything to do with the flash counter... this is because you have the new boot loader and a custom kernel/recovery.

Flash a stock ROM and the mark will go, if you flash a custom recovery the mark will only appear when booting into recovery and if you flash a custom kernel it will appear on each boot
[Galaxy S III General] danieldmm:
Or just flash the old boot loader and all your problems will disappear :D

Red exclamation does not show when using new XXUFME7 firmware even when using a custom recovery. The bootloader appears to have been modified.

Ist not relative, i never see nothing associating SDS with bootloader. SDS its fixed in kernel and not bootloader, although its wath i know. Even the kernel that is used in Recovery have the fix for SDS.

[Galaxy S III General] muscles019:
Are you referring to the small red exclamation which used to show in top left of screen when booting into recovery?

It's this that no longer shows with this XXUFME7 firmware. It was first introduced with the XXELLA firmware.

I must admit I've only tried stock rom using custom recovery. However, red exclamation used to show and no longer does.
[Galaxy S III General] danarama:
Was introduced before XXELLA. I first got it on 4.1.1

Its mainly custom kernel that gives /!\ but you can't have custom kernel.

What's your flash counter set as?
[Galaxy S III General] muscles019:
Stock rom, TWRP, Mobile Odin, BusyBox, Triangle Away 3.0 = counter: 0, binary: samsung official, status: official.

Device settings status: official.
[Galaxy S III General] danarama:
As expected. Everything says official so you can't have /!\ ....

I imagine a 4.1 Sammy ROM or CM 4.2.2 ROM with custom kernel could bring it back. Would be interesting to see.
