Hi,

Every now and then when I try to send an SMS from my XDA2 I press the send button in the top left corner and all that happens is that the cursor jumps to the end of the "to" field. Nothing else?

In order to be able to send an SMS once in this stat I have to turn off and turn back on the phone part and then everything works fine. It's only infrequently but when it happens it's quite annying.

This is my second XDA2 and both were running the 1.60.00WWE Rom with 1.10.00 Radio and both suffered from the problem.

Has anybody got any ideas?

Thanks,

@ads_green,

although I can´t help you out here, I still can confirm that bug on my machine :cry:

My machine:

Vodafone Personal Assistant (Qtek 2020)

ROM-Version 1.66.01GER

ROM-Date 02/23/04

Radio-Version 1.10.00

Protokoll-Version 1337.18

ExtRom-Version 1.66.143

Software installed:

Adobe Acrobat

Funny Snake TKCreater

Mobile-Banking

PocktZenPhone

PocketWeather

Total Commander

WisBar Advanced

VITO Voice Dialer

I see that we both use the same radio version.

Anybody else can confirm that bug ?

SMS problem

I can confirm the same problem you have but I noticed the following:

When I turn on the phone from a soft reset and after entering the

PIN for the telco network, the "G" icon (GPRS) briefly pops up

and beep sound is heard. This is normal

Occasionally this "G" icon comes up again and beep is heard for no reason.

When this happen, then I cannot send SMS like you mentioned.

Receiving SMS is OK. Making and receiving calls is OK also.

Also at this time

START--->SETTINGS---->PHONE cannot be accessed.

Nothing happens when clicked.

The only way to get out is to SOFT RESET.

However one time I tried to investigate further and check the processes

and applications, open/closing other software, etc. the system

went into a HARD REST automatically.

I suspect the problem is due to the phone settings software part.

It could also be a SIM card problem or a loose contact with SIM card.

I also have the same ROM.

Anyone has any ideas?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] fabolousxda:
I have the exact same problem recently and that 'G' icon keeps appearing, i find that if i turn my phone onto Flight mode then back to normal, it resolves this for a while but doesnt stop it happening!

The lumia 920 is a great piece of hardware, but xbox music is so godawful that I think I am going to take the plunge and just get a used lumia 900 or titan 2. As far as I am concerned, the xbox music service is almost useless without autoplaylists or the ability to do anything with rated music to me - and a huge reason I went WP is to sync my music. SO, has anyone actually taken the plunge and gone back? Anything you miss about WP8? I cant even think of a feature WP8 has that WP7.8 doesnt that I would use...
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StevieBallz:
Speed would be the most important Thing I can think off. WP7.8 is fluid but Apps take considerably longer to load than on WP8. Also there's some Apps I use that are WP8 only due to new APIs (mainly camera related).

Hey,

i modded the secphone.apk and secContacts.apk for xxmc8 rom, to fit it in Holo design.

Just download both apks and put them with a root explorer into system/app. Overwrite the old files and set permissions to rw- r-- r--.

Or if you are lazy just download the zip and flash it via temp cwm6, but dont forget to mount preload partition.

At the end it should look like this

cwm zip:

If you want use it in your Rom pls ask or give credit.

I think it might be the google play. Since the new version 4.0.25 I've seen drain like this when I left the app open in the memory. Maybe this is the problem.

There are a few gremlins at the moment, I've had a 32 minute audio wake lock despite the phone being silent on my desk and my cpu got stuck at 1350mhz for over an hour.

Both problems solved by clearing the apps via the task manager so maybe it's an app doing similar.

Google Now/Maps causes huge wakelocks, as every so often it checks where you are to give you location based information, or record your location history.

If you don't need this information, turn all the options off in Map settings like someone above suggeste.

If it's any consolation, sometime around May 23rd, my gs3 received some google app updates and now the battery is drained in less than 8 hours with minimal usage (i.e. no games / voice calls / other heavy drain activities). Before that it would last at least 16 hours if not a day and a half (with minimal use).
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lauro.teixeira:
Possible Solution

I had this problem also.

Solved by going to app manager, all apps, google services, unninstall updates.

then i opened the hangouts app so it could tell me to update google services. Updated it. And problem solved.

I hope it works 4 u.

I've got the same problem. Google Services draining my battery like crazy. Is anyone experience this problem after installing Snapdragon Battery Guru? I think that the drain starts after I've install that app. I'll uninstall it and see if this is the problem
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bungadudu:
Actually it's a common thing (not sure this drainage is a problem..)

To fix it just go into Settings - More - > Location services and uncheck "Use wireless networks".

Try and report if this worked for you.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
That is one way.

Another is to go into accounts / gmail and click on your gmail account. Uncheck all those unwanted sync services. I only leave mail and calendar.

It really really works. You can make GSF wakelocks go away entirely.

But just know that it comes at a cost. GTalk and Google Now will not work when doing this. This is only for people who don't care about those 2 services.

nlp wakelocks are caused by google play store version 4.1.6. And that shows google play services is causing battery drain.

You will need to upgrade play store to 4.1.10. That fixed location bug.

read more here and download latest play store.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
For me it only started when I turned on 'wifi & mobile network location' in location settings. Unticked it and it went away.

Was an easy fix when I googled it as nlp stands for network location passive collector.

Other than that I have never had issues in 3 years with gps left on.

I'm using the app Wakelock Defender and I'm having nlpwakelock and nlpcollectorwakelock draining my battery. I updated my Play Store to 4.1.10 and the problem still persists.

The only way to stop it is by uncheck the location defined by wifi and mobile networks.

I can even let the GPS on all the time and no wakelock, but if I check the location by wifi and mobile networks then the wakelocks happens again.

The problem is there and Google should fix it.

Exactaly, bro. You can let the GPS on and your phone will be fine. Just uncheck the lo cation by WiFi and mobile network for position wakelock free.

I wish I could send this issue to an Android developers from Google so they can fix it.

OK cool because I always thought leaving the standalone gps on will always drain your battery. I will have to see how it does. Appreciate it!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThiaagoFelix:
Just for your information, when you set the location by WiFi and mobile network off you disable Google Now. In my opinion, Google now is causing the nlpwakelock and nlplocattorwakelock, that drains the battery significantly.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ameinild:
I had a similar problem on my Nexus4 - after I turned location services on and off again, the NlpWakelock would keep my phone awake and not go to deep sleep.

However, I found a fix for this issue. The culprit service is called GoogleLocationManagerService, and the solution is to disable this service only (I have no idea what other complications may arise from this, but at least my phone now goes to deep sleep). This service can be disabled with ROM Toolbox or a similar app.

In ROM Toolbox you go to App Manager, find Google Play Services and select Advanced Freeze. Now find the service (has a red border) called GoogleLocationManagerService and disable it. Now I can switch on and off location and still go to deep sleep, and location IS working.

Works ok (I've used it ever since they took away native kernel level controls in CM versions later than CM7)

Just be aware all it can do is *add* light. It bumps up the R G or B values for every pixel in the entire panel at the same time, even black. So at some point blacks will start to look washed out. This lowers contrast generally and does nothing to help gamma.

My personal recommendation is to just use two of the three RGB sliders (you shouldn't ever need to use all three unless you like your blacks to be some perfectly calibrated shade of gray instead), ignore other settings. The HTC One does not have an OLED display like a nexus.

Hi guys, I am so fed up. I just can not handle this anymore.

I have been receiving multiple copies of any sms I receive. The message can sometimes arrive over a hundred times. Usually coming every 5 minutes (sometimes taking a break and then starting up again). This went on for maybe 3 months. (I got my Maxx XT910 in January 2013)

So, I went ahead and flashed the phone from 673.94.324.XT910.MERetail.en.06 to 673.94.328....

This was done on the 18th of April 2013. I never again had the issue until today, the 3rd of May 2013. I thought I was finally free of this burden!!!

Definitely seems like a software issue. But now I don't know what to do. I know if I take it in for repairs, they will just flash it themselves and it will just start again.

My country is not going to receive the JB update, but I will flash it on myself once root and everything is sorted, but for now, I need your help. There's a lot floating the net about this, but mostly not relevant to me.

Please can someone help me. It's really upsetting me something terrible.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] PL113:
Definitely seems like a problem caused by your provider. Contact them and ask if they know about any problems connected with your sim card.

So why not flash right away? There is root for XT910 and a lot of roms that do work perfectly...

I have been communicating with my carrier, but they haven't been much help, but I have done a lot of testing, and I'm almost sure it's a phone/software issue.

Not getting JB here, so don't want to flash it yet in case I need to take the phone in. Going to flash an EU (Retail British) ICS rom to test further with.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] romdroid.:
Try another sim card, some times that helps.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] djpeesh:
Happened to me as well on ics. Apparently the ota breaks something on the sim card. Tried reseting phone etc but the only that fixed it was a new sim.

Now on jb and rooted, and just realized that's almost been a year with the xt910.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] d.casper.b:
I have heard that the OTA messes up the sim, but I have already replaced the sim..

Currently on EU ICS now, will see if it passes the 15 day mark (which is how long it was working fine after the last flash).
