[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mrbracht:
Pretty sure I figured it out. Seems like it was from the kernel I was using.. The Zeus kernel. Did a few battery pulls and it was still acting up. I was getting 12+ hours screen on time with the battery before I switch from lean kernel to the Zeus kernel. Back to lean and I'm at 2 hours screen on time and battery is at 90 percent. So I think I'm good now. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikeman45:
I noticed with the zues kernel i needed rom toolbox for any changes to stick. Nothing else worked for me. There are a few apps to check out whats going on (better battery stats, wake lock detectors, and cpu spy) cpu spy will tell you if its going into a deep sleep.

What changes in did you make to the Zeus kernal? I do know its a little power hungry than most; I just recently switched back to my normal battery and it seems to eat at it pretty quickly.

Hello,

I've been using Resurrection Remix rom by westcrip for quite a long time. It was version 3.1.1. Lastly I decided to change it into something with android 4.2. I've chosen one rom that I like the most but there is one thing i don't especially like about it. While installing RR i could choose whether I want normal white gapps or their inverted dark version. It wasn't completely black, just dark gray. Same with sms app, which was also grey, not black and not white. I spent some time looking in the internet for such version of gapps and sms app but i couldn't find it. That's is why my question is, whether it is possible to separate gapps and sms app from the whole rom file and make it a flashable zip so that i can flash it to my another rom, or just replace it in my rom.

Thanks for your answer,

Gabor
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KNTXTremE:
You need to ask westcrip for Black gapps and ask him for permission to put it in your ROM. ;)

Wrong section.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
I agree. Taking someone else's work is not right.

You can search for blacked out or inverted google apps, like this:

[Motorola Atrix 2] janocool:
Hi community, I just purchase in ebay an Atrix 2, was a bargain. Well, the problem is that I was going to unlock it, because Im in Ecuador, so purchase a unlock code, but it didnt work, I wrote asking other sellers if they can provide another code, but all says that thats the only valid code to unlock it, so I think this thing is in a hard locked state (more than 10 times wrong unlock code) I just try 2 times with the actual code that I have.

I search in the web and a solution for an atrix 1 was to flash a radio. Im new with this device, anyone have any suggest or fix for this problem?

Hope you can help me.

If anyone have access to unlock codes maybe can check if I have the right one, this is the info that the unlocker give me:

for IMEI: 356378042076331

unlock code:62659983

Hi,

Lately i am experiencing a lot of troubles while typing a message or just unlocking my lockscreen.

The touchscreen respods bad, sometimes it starts moving out of itsselve... Its really annoying to work with the phone like that...

Someone facing the same problems?

Suggestions? Fixes?

Btw. The phone is stock, nothing changed or replaced...

The onling thing i did was removing the shaterproof film (and my Sony logo :o)

Try repairing it with Sony's PC Companion or Sony's Update Service first.

remember to backup your stuff before proceeding.

Did a factory reset but still the same problem comes occasionally.. any solution ?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GeoSpaceKing:
I've had this problem only sometimes when charging outside...When u feel that the touch isn't working as it should,put on your earphones and look out for a low buzzing sound..if u hear anything,then unplug the charger from the wall and check in another socket..hopefully the problem in my phone was that current was leaching onto the capacitive screen so if I touch just once,it registers a number of touches..hope this helps u get rid of the problem :)

Hit thanks if I helped u.Sent from my Killer Xperia Z(C6602) using xda premium.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akss009:
That may be the solution to the problem you had but this isnt the problem here , it happens when whether the phone is charging or not and I think themichelanne is having the same problem.

Power off the phone with power+ vol up - wait for 1 vibrate followed by 3 vibrates and leave the phone then wait for 30 second before powering on, solved it for me....no problem in touch till now and i hope it does not come in future.

BTW This phone is really really full of problems. :rolleyes:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zunido:
Also happens to me when using some chargers

I bought my unbranded UK Xperia Z in Expansys, since I live in Portugal they sent a extra charger for the european standard socket. I had this exact same problem with it, the screen was extremely unresponsive and unprecise while charging. Now I use the charger from my old N900 and have no issues. Also, charging from a lower volt/amperage source like a computer I have no problems.

Since the capacitive screen is very sensitive, a low quality AC-DC adapter will generate issues (possibly due to the current/voltage not being 100% stable).

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aethervagrant:
This happens with this phone for me, and previous android phones. Usually its just the app open not responding to touch events, but my softkeys still work and I can force kill and restart whatever im doing. Sometimes I have to reset. It seems to be happening more frequently since updating to 67, but its not often enough really bother me. using a tool like romtoolbox to increase the amount of touch events android can process seems to improve it somewhat.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newinthowai:
Have you found any solutions for this? I have been experiencing this since 4.2.2 update. I don't know what happened. Can you please explain what's wrong and what's happening? Have you got it fixed yet? My screen freezes frequently so I'm unable to use the phone.

I have been experiencing this problem since a long time. But I have found no solutions for it. I took out my screen protector and the freezing thing got to normal but still it freezes sometime, but more when the screen protector is on. I'm pretty sure this problem is caused by the screen or the android farmware. I'm downgrading my OS, please reply to this. Mine is C6602. C6603 doesn't experience any problems like that. :(

How I fixed my Xperia Z5 touch screen

Hi everyone,

So, my Z5 touch screen was not working at all anymore, I have tried every manipulation recommended on the internet but did not succeed to get it working that way.

Here is what I did to get it fixed eventually:

- Installed sony companion

- Launched the "fix software" program (I don't know the exact name of the program in english)

- Followed the steps (took a while, something like two hours)

Then my phone rebooted, but nothing, still the same issue. Tried taking off the sim card, rebooted and same problem. Then, I put it back in the phone, and for some reason, the touch screen decided to work again. Although, I lost a lot of data in the process, but worth it.

I don't know if it is a general fix, but on my phone it just worked that way. Although, I have noticed that my phone started overheating something like two weeks before the touch screen problem appeared, I assume those two problems are linked in some way. Still did not find any fix for the overheating problem except putting it under cool water or let it cool down for 10 minutes.

I hope I helped with my post, good luck for those who are experiencing this issue.

As a manager of an O2 store I can help you out if you want to know what you can and can't get - to avoid the alien looks!

To be fair (due to, ahem, "budgets") a lot of store staff are part-time (bain of my life!) and don't get enough time to train on normal stuff let alone xdas!

O2 stores don't stock screen protectors (which is why the girl wouldn't know what you were on about!)...I have asked but to no avail.

I got a couple from the Dixons store along the road for nowt! (LOL)

Just PM me if you've got a question - but obviously I can't go delving into your account, data protection and all that!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] apatrick:
Irnbrulad - this is a generous offer and I think you will have a queue of people baging on your door (if you let us know where it is!). I have been after the folding keyboard for xda 2 for months - any chance on letting us know where and when and how much?

Thanks again!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] Irnbrulad:
Ha ha, think I'm a few miles away from the majority of you guys! (north of edinburgh). As for the folding keyboard, we have yet to be given a confirmed date. There is a thumb-pad out which kinda looks like the keyboard on the blackberry device. Have a look at www.my-xda.com and follow the accessories link, then keyboards.

Hope this helps.

PS. prices are there for both keyboards too, you may be able to order the folding keyboard online, but we have yet to recieve them instore (that said, there are some stores that get priority for XDA stuff)

Thanks for taking the time to comment - if only more 02 staff were like you.

I went ot my local O2 store on saturday to buy an XDA II and was told they have none in stock and have no idea when they will be getting any. They wrote down my number on a scrap of cardboard to phone me when they get some stock - I'm not holding my breath!

They also have a lack of accessories. I would be really interested in the backpack because I do a lot of presentations and carrying everything around with me would be a great time saver - this is no-where to be found even on the net - does it actually exist?

Is it possible to get a list of O2 stores that have priority of XDA parts?

Thanks

Matt
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] Irnbrulad:
Expansion pack first. It does exsist - not sure how many though! I've emailed someone i know in logistics to see if they can be ordered into stores. also asked which have priority. have a look on www.my-xda.com as there are details there.

Are you near london, if so let me know.

The xdaII has been out of stock for a short time at the warehouse. If you still want one pm me with your nearest big towns and i'll check the current stock
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] Irnbrulad:
Got an answer for you. They haven't been launched yet - "hopefully in the next few weeks" is the response i got. Get back to me in a couple of weeks and i'll check again - i'll forget otherwise!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] GuestK00345:
Spoke to a rep over chat today, and oddly enough she told me the AT&T release date of the device. She stated, FWIW, that the S4 will be released by AT&T on the 27th. I asked if pre-orders would be received by then, and she stated that they will ship on the 27th and received by the 29th.

Now, a couple of things don't make sense. AT&T doesn't release devices on Saturdays, warehouses don't usually ship things on Saturdays, and things shipped on Saturday usually don't arrive on the following Monday :) .

So, take it with a grain of salt, but i figure we can start an AT&T thread as April 16th is right around the corner!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] NIKKG:
Those reps never know anything, I had the same problem with the SIII launch. I expect to get it that same week around Friday (19th) or no later than next Friday (26th).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dimeezy:
Anyone know if ATT will sell me the phone outright if I am not an ATT customer?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Underground_XI:
Of course. Money buys anything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] scott14719:
The question is, will they unlock it for you even if you pay full price? Otherwise, either you will have to become their customer or you will need to find another method to unlock it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] j510:
If.you buy retail price they have to give you the unlock code if asked for. Otherwise if your on 2 year contract you have to wait 90 days before you can receive the code. Past experience when unlocking previous phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] scott14719:
Unfortunately, this is not true in all cases. When the Galaxy S2 Skyrocket (AT&T) was released, many people had trouble getting an unlock code from AT&T even after paying full price for the phone because AT&T claimed it was a exclusive and they didn't have to give unlock codes until after 6 months. There is plenty to read about this in the Skyrocket forum if you want to. Of course, not everyone had trouble getting the code from AT&T, some just had to ask, others had to escalate the issue, and still others never did get a code. But it isn't a given that a carrier (AT&T anyway) will provide a code just because full price is given. They could very well claim the I337 AT&T version is an exclusive and deny unlock codes. As I mentioned, it has happened before. When you factor in the new rules regarding carriers not having to unlock phones, it is very possible AT&T will do everything possible to not unlock phones, even from full purchases. Of course, I hope there won't be a problem and they will unlock phones that are fully purchased, but there certainly is no guarantee that they will do it at all or in every situation.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mrvirginia:
i wouldn't believe those reps. when the S3 launched, NONE of them had a clue when the launch date was before hand. anyway, i wouldn't expect a solid release date to be announced until after the HTC One goes on sale. why would a company announce a date for a second product before the first has launched? it's pretty obvious it's because of the HTC One. it's because of this that i think Verizon will announce the date of theirs landing first (they didn't snag the HTC One).... prob announce it next week, too.
