[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] losguy:
random screen blank

I have had my Galaxy Note 10.1 since xmas. Lately it randomly goes blank. It happens during an application or game. I can click the on/off button to put it to sleep then wake it the regular way...

I have noticed it with games mostly, 250+Solitaire and Sudoku Premium. The screen goes blank, the backlight stays on and have to put to sleep to get screen back...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazer155:
Mine does the same thing except I usually can't wake it back up. The screen stays black and I have to hold the power button down until it restarts.It's happened with the stock browser and Google play store while I was browsing.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kazkas:
It happens to me too (ics and jb) sometimes, does't matter what app is runing, but only if I'm using stylus. I don't mind it, just have to double press power button.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aes28:
I still have it happen sometimes too. Never found a solution and I'm quite certain it even started happening before I had any extra apps installed.

I feel like you might be on to something with the stylus being out because I'm quite certain it only happens to me when I have mine out too. Something to keep an eye on.

Hello I have been experienceing issues with graphics on all of the sense based jb roms and no.matter which Rom, or kernel I use the graphics are extremely laggy and the advanced games like batman tdkr, and GTA3, as well GTA VC, and a slew of others freeze, lag, quit responding AMD so on. So my question is are there any devs that know of updated gpu drivers for the one x? Currently I had to downgrade back to stock in order to use 90 percent of what I use
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sailicalvin:
I have a GS2 skyrocket running CM10.1 and i've read that task managers are rather obsolete now. However I have noticed that when I let my phone run standard app process limit the battery life is around 30% worse than when I set the app limit to 4 processes in the developer settings. Now that I have CM10.1 and it doesn't have developer options, i'm wondering what I can do to limit my processes down to conserve battery?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindstormsguy:
You can get developer options back. Go to Settings> About Phone. Tap the build number 7 times. This will enable the dev options.

HOWEVER, this is not going to give you the results you want. Apps won't "run" in the background. Well, services will, but changing this setting will not do what you think it will. Android is very good at managing memory. And as far as "managing processes", there's nothing for you to do.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithgrobertson:
Hi everyone,

Simple question - Will Z roms work with the ZL (and vice versa)?

I know next to nothing about what goes into making ROMs and Kernels, but I would guess that because the two phones have identical hardware specs in terms of the GPU and CPU, the ROMs would be flashable on either phone, but they both have different radios/antenna so that leads me to believe we won't be able to.

Can anyone say for sure yet?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattman83:
You won't be able to flash a Z rom on a ZL, however they should be very very easy to port between the devices. It's like the HTC Desire was almost a clone of the Nexus One, stuff was ported between them very easily however you couldn't use an N1 rom on a Desire etc.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hellscythe:
I do believe the Z and ZL have slight camera differences, that i about it though

correct me if i am wrong
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithgrobertson:
Front cameras are different, rear cameras are the same.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattman83:
IR Blaster is different. Also the simple fact that device ID's are different too... Again, it'll be very easy to port, but you can't flash a Z rom on a ZL.

My S2 has the SOD. If i leave the phone for more than 30-45 minutes Idle/sleep it wont wake up without taking out the battery, or holding the power button for over 10 seconds. It is on a STOCK Rom, not rooted. Running 2.3.6 Gingerbread.

I want to sell this phone to buy a new one but I would like to get this issue resolved first. What can cause this? It was working fine up until a few days ago :( I did have it rooted before but I used Odin to flash back to stock completely..

Why not just rooted it and put a custom ROM to it? I am pretty sure the person whom buying it from you won't mind getting a custom ROM. Beside that person might end up coming here to XDA and get it rooted and put custom ROM in anyway., just my 2 cents.

Possible Sleep Of Death Fix

I recently had a lot of SOD trouble with a new Galaxy S2.

At least once every day and often multiple times the phone would lock up and become warm - seemingly at random.

As the phone was new running a stock rom (4.0.4) I sent it off under warranty for repair but unsurprisingly the service centre were unable to reproduce the problem (after having my phone for 2 weeks !!) so it was kindly returned with exactly the same problem.

After getting the phone back I began my own testing and think I might have found the source of the problem.

For me, if you Disable the Notifications option in the Google Play settings the SOD problem goes away.

My phone is currently with another service centre along with full details of what I found - I'll let you know what the outcome is when I get it back.

I didn't have long to test this definitively as the phone was taken away to the second service centre shortly after I found this link with google play, but it's an easy one to try so give it a go and let me know if this helps you too.:fingers-crossed:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
The problem is in the firmware. Everyone on 4.0.4 is having the same problem. Solution is to go back to 4.0.3 or run a custom ROM.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Butchr:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ronzogonzo:
I have the same issue and have done plenty of looking around for answers and have found there is really no one sure cure for the problem that I have seen. That being said, I seem to have come up with what I would call a work around. To me, it seems to be some kind of flaw in the calibration of the battery. I let my battery drain completely until it shuts off by itself.You may have noticed it will warn you @ 5% increments starting I believe @ 25%. Ignore them and let it go and will shut down shortly after hitting 1%. Once it does, then recharge until it hits the 100% mark. If you need your phone @ all times, you can buy a second battery and keep 1 charged. Sometimes I put the full battery in and then put the low battery back in when I'm @ home when it's more convenient to do charging. Seems a bit of a hassle but once you come up with a routine, it's no big deal and I haven't had a SOD issue since adopting this method. It may not help in the selling of the phone but you may want to give it a try and see if it helps your SOD problem.

For users that are not getting the "gallery" option when setting a backround in the "Messages" app, follow instructions below.

With a file manager, create a folder on the root of your virtual sdcard called ".data" the "." is important. (you may need to show hidden files in the settings of the file manager app to be able to creat files with a ".") Inside that folder create another folder called "message"

Done!

what exactly is this fixing?
[HTC Droid DNA] Claynsen:
Some stock and rooted users are not getting the "gallery" option when setting a backround in the "Messages" app. Other apps like "Notes" are responsable for creating these folders so if you have debloated or haven't used them before you have to create them manualy.

Hi all,

i have tried to install this rom with both, GB and ICS bootloaders(and rooted) but no luck always get error 7.

I even installed CM10.1 and tried to flash jellybam over it but i get the same error.

any solution?
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
my friend,

if you check in the Jellybam thread , you will see that the meta.inf file (I think from version 3.2)has to be replaced and repacked and then flashed.....you can find one of the files posted from Trocopassu.....then after that the flashing will be normal....

Hope this helps you

Why is there no way to disable the annoying delivery report notification in the status bar every time a message is received and just simply get the little checkmark on the bottom of the message bubble?

You can turn it all off in message settings. There is no way just to get the check mark on stock Sense.

I really hate Chrome and miss the stock AOSP browser I was using on CM10

Is there an easy way to set up that basic/stock browser? Key word "easy" unless I can get some really good step-by-step instructions.

I think loading flash is as easy as installing an APK at that point.

if ya need additional help; step by step let me know tbh
[Nexus 7 General] Groid:
jt.one is right. You just need root, a file manager like Root Explorer (superb paid app), ES File explorer or Astro (both free), and the browser.apk from the link above.

1. Rename the 2 BrowserProxyProvider files in /system/app by appending a .bak extension on them.

2. Copy Browser.apk into the /system/app folder.

3. Set the proper permissions (check permissions on another app to see what it should look like).

4. Sideload flash after downloading it from the Adobe website if you don't have it already installed.
[Nexus 7 General] mmoreimi:
Thanks for the reply. I guess I'm unclear what the proper order is to do this.

OR easier yet......

download the latest Dolphin browser from the market...

and navigate to:

mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser_preferences.xml.

Thus re-enabled flash in dolphin.......:laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] mmoreimi:
Excellent instructions. I'm about 90% with you, except for #3. I know how to assign permissions, but am unclear about the part to check permissions on another app. Just any old app? So for example I browsed to /system/app and found GoogleEarth.apk. Its permissions are

rw- r-- r--

So browser.apk will have those exact permissions?

Thank you!!!

UPDATE: The download file is browser.zip am I to rename this to APK?

This video demonstrates how to easily install Flash and Browser:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Trt2J53li18
[Nexus 7 General] mmoreimi:
Good video, but it revealed something very important that's missing....

the fact that you can't use bookmarks in the stock browser..... they won't work.

That kills it for me.

Now i'm not sure what to do. Keep Chrome, but not have flash? I use flash-embeded sites almost regularly (just came from CM10) but it was pretty unstable...
[Nexus 7 General] Groid:
Whoa partner. Bookmarks work just fine with the AOSP browser. At the upper right in the browser there is a heart (add bookmark), magnifying glass (search) and an icon with a star in it (bookmarks). It came with many common links, espn, cnn, twitter, facebook, etc. and it is easy to add them. Any page you want to bookmark, just hit the star to add it. I don't think it will sync your existing Chrome bookmarks, but once you manually add them, you can back them up with Titanium backup so you won't have to add them again. Flash works perfectly with the aosp browser and it is fast.

Yes, set the permissions the same as GoogleEarth (long press, permissions). Must be in r/w mode not read only to view or change permissions. The top 3 should be checked for 'Read' and just the top one for 'Write'.

I d/l the browser.apk link in the second post to my computer and it came through as browser.apk. Then I copied it to my phone. If you got browser.zip, did you d/l it directly to the phone? The file that must be copied into /system/app is browser.apk. Look at the browser.zip and see if it can be unzipped and contains browser.apk. If not, try renaming it to browser.apk
[Nexus 7 General] mmoreimi:
You're absolutely correct. I don't know what the guy in the vid was talking about. I was able to get stock browser installed, flash installed, set up bookmarks, set up non-chrome bookmark widget...so the stock bookmark widget which is far superior to Chrome.

Everything the way I like it. Thanks for pointing that out. That's awesome.
