This is why I always look at all the permissions that an app requests...

Its also a reason why I prefer to get apps from the Amazon Appstore as well - at the bottom of the page you can see every detailed permission the app has. Most things on my phone came from Amazon.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theellucidone:
Hey everyone

So I have flashed prob 1000 roms on phones with no issues ever.

I now have this galaxy tab that will not flash a rom. I get rooted and cwm installed. The cwm version is 4. I cannot seem to get 5 on it. anyway when i try to load cm9 it appears to work but when it boots im just stuck on samsug logo. Soft Brick.

Any suggestions? Each time i try i have to odin factory and start over.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brahmy:
Hey all,

I picked up an HTC One on SaskTel last week. I noticed that when I work out of town (in range of only one or two cell towers) my reception just sucked. I was seeing some bizzare behaviour where Exchange, Gmail, Play Store and most Google services would refuse to sync - there would be timeouts and "sync is experiencing problems" errors. Other apps like Google Chrome and reddit is fun worked perfectly. Very frustrating.

I started Googling and playing with APN settings. I think I've found a combination that works, although I couldn't tell you why... but now I don't get any problems at all.

Anyway, if you're having problems on SaskTel with any Android smartphone, maybe give these settings a try.

DISCLAIMER:::: This Is my second thread.I AM A LOWLY NOOB..PLEASE GREAT ONES HELP::

Rather than bury this question in another long thread I made another if I am wrong in this please delete or move to proper thread(mods).

Anyway.

As stated before my phone keeps having hard resets. I believe its due to improper installation due to recovery. I am currently on CWMR v6.0.1.2

I want to know if there is a way to update this to a more up to date version so that I may install and run the wicked sensations v.4 or any other modern ROM. I was running a older version of PHANTOM Blaze (last years or so model) I really am new to the rooting game and I am trying to understand the lingo as I want to help others unlock the power and potential of their "smartphones".I guess what i need to know is how do I update from the version of CWMR i am running to one with ODIN (a newer model). I think if I do this I can destroy the random hard resets.

Any advice? (thanks will be given.)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
I do not believe your resets are caused by the recovery at all. Also CWM has nothing to do with Odin, two separate programs. CWM works with the phone itself. Odin is a program which you run on your computer and connect your phone to the computer and you put the phone in download mode. There is a Mobil Odin also available.

To answer your question the easiest way to update CWM is to download Rom Manager app from Google Play Store. Within that app it gives you the ability to check for updates for CWM and flash it right through the app.

so any idea whats causing the hardresets..i updated my cwm like you said now what?

It says i now have Rom Manager premium v5.5.2.8 and teh current recovery is: Team Win Recovery Project. Im not sure what I should do now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] topherk:
You can use the

Rom Manager App

to install the latest CWM recovery (

see this thread

)

Can you boot into recovery mode? If you can,

Naddict has created recoveries

that are able to be flashed from the recovery itself. That might be one was to upgrade to the latest. Also, CNexus has created an

aroma installer that can switch recoveries on the fly

. It's a really neat program, but also requires access to recovery mode.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] M F Money:
i can go to recovery but what is it taht is causing the hard resets?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] topherk:
I seriously doubt that Recovery is causing reboots.

Did you restore any data or apps from Titanium Backup?

Any apps you recently installed that might be causing it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] M F Money:
i can go to recovery but what is it that is causing the hard resets?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Most likely your reboots are caused by rogue app and or bad data. The only way to isolate this is by reflashing the rom on a full clean install. Then loading apps all fresh not from a backup.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] topherk:
What Ed said.

I'm 90% sure you've been restoring data (or not wiping enough when flashing the new ROM).

My standard procedure when flashing a ROM (even when just upgrading my current ROM to a new build) is the following:

Investigate ROM: If a ROM catches my eye, I always read the 1st post in great detail to understand the ROM and it's features. I also look for things like "known bugs" and installation instructions. I then read the last 5-10 pages of the thread to see what the users have to say about the ROM (bugs, issues, fixes, etc). Once I understand the pros and cons of the Rom, I decide if I want to flash it. A lot of "noobs" on here don't read the last 5-10 pages and get into trouble when flashing because of it. I always read at least that much and recommend doing so to others.

Download ROM and check md5sum: I download the ROM to my computer, check the md5sum, and copy it to my phone. Then I check the md5sum again.

Make a backup: Just in case (and it's saved me many a time).

So Fresh and so Clean Clean Wipe: Wipe /data, /system, cache and dalvik cache. This removes all remnants of my previous OS (/system) and any app data that could be left behind (/data). Sometime, if I'm looking for a really fresh start, I'll wipe the internal memory. But that's typically not necessary.

Install Rom: If the ROM has an Aroma installer, I just follow the instructions on it. They're typically straight forward. If there's no Aroma installer, I just flash the ROM and let it do it's thing. If it's an AOSP Rom, I also flash the appropriate gapps, which you don't have to do for TW Roms (gapps are included for them).

Re-download your Apps from Play Store: I know it's quicker to just hit "restore" on TiBu, but since you're having issues with reboots, that's the last thing you should try. The Play Store keeps a record of all of your previously-installed apps, so it's easy to re-install them.

If you follow the above, you shouldn't have any issues with your Rom (that aren't ROM-related).

If you're interested, you can also troubleshoot what was causing the reboots:

Slowly restore data to your apps that need it: Here is where you want to be very careful. In TiBu, if you just go through and restore all data for all apps, you won't know what's causing boot loops. What I'd do is prioritize your data restores. Restore the ones you need most often.

Restore one App's data: If there's an App that must have data restored (game saves), restore only that app's data.

Check to see if the phone has reboot problems: Use the phone normally for a while (a few hours) and see if it reboots. If it doesn't then that app wasn't the cause of the bootloops.

Rinse and Repeat: Repeat steps 2-3 for each app you must have the data restored for. Many apps, like Dropbox, don't need their data restored, you just need to log in again. Again, prioritize which apps you need to restore.

Hope you get your reboots worked out!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamiespence:
Hi,

Any help most appreciated as I am struggling to solve this bizarre issue. Both my wife and I picked up Galaxy S4s in the last 30 days. Over time as you use the phone the dialer seems to slow down considerably. When you click the green phone icon to call a contact it will take upwards of 10-15 seconds to get to the caller screen and actually place the call. It's so slow that you would think the call was not even happening sometimes!

Now. The weird thing is that at first I thought it was a handset thing, but exactly the same thing happens on my wifes phone now! (I re installed and fixed mine twice now)

The dirty solution is to backup, factory reset and restore everything (logs, contacts etc.). This works fine, so I know that the issue it is not the size of the call logs, number of contacts etc.

I honestly don't think we are running any strange apps, pretty mainstream stuff.... Otherwise phone is awesome. Have scoured the net but not found specific threads on this issue with the S4.

I have tried disabling all syncing to extendable address books ( face book. Linkedin , etc)

Thanks in advance for your thoughts and or comments.

Jamie
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gillion:
Unfortunately the S4 will clean the phone and contacts app from background and foreground (cache) ram when the system needs extra ram for another app like facebook or netflix.

When this happens the phone and contacts apps need to be reloaded from scratch.... which takes a little longer than if they were not removed from memory in the first place.

These first versions of the samsung s4 software needs some polish to reduce its ram demands. It is a bit bloated at the moment.

Imo... it will significantly improve next few updates.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theREDlegion:
So this is supposed to be normal? How come more people are not complaining about it.? It is ridiculously slow, after pressing the send button you shouldn't have to wait a few seconds to even see the dialer let alone wait for it to initiate a call. I would like to know how many people are experiencing the same thing. I've owned a galaxy nexus, galaxy s3, Samsung focus, galaxy s4 and galaxy note 2 amongst numerous other non Samsung phones and it's really annoying. I own a ROGERS s4, wonder if it's a specific model issue.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Metallaxis:
This is ridiculus! This issue has progressively gotten worse over time, and it has come to the point where it takes about 20 seconds from the time I press the phone number until it actually makes the call. Phone is unresponsive in the meantime. Shame on Samsung...
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EclipseX:
It's completely normal with sangsuga phones :p....I've got Samsung from gs1 nexus, note and now s4 and s4 active. .... my opinion is....I just don't care. If you clean dalvik cache it will work better you need to do this sometimes unfortunately

But hey guess what.....Samsung knows that and finally and maybe they will give us a fresh ui based in ART

Hello,

I have searched, read, searched more, read more, I can only guess my feeble attempts in searching is incorrect.

Two questions:

Can I use multiple icon packs simultaneously?

I currently use Nova launcher and have an icon pack I like, but, I would like to add additional ones, but, not to overwrite existing ones?

Can you install the png files manually?

I have not found a really good guide for this.

Any help you be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] CCallahan:
Not sure I understand your first question about using multiple packs simultaneously. Do you mean just have multiple packs installed with the option to apply different ones at will? If so, just install Xposed Framework and Icon Themer Module, install your icon packs as you normally would, and they will all be available to apply via Icon Themer and can go between them at will.

Hope this helps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] buggz2k:
Thanks.

The first question, I wish to use more than one icon pack at the same time, without each one clobbering the other.

I got the Xposed Icon Themer apk, as I already have the Xposed Framework install, and other Xposed modules.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Inline:
If you use ADW Launcher, almost all of the icon packs for Apex, Nova, etc are compabitable with it.

Once you have more than one installed, when you double click an icon, click Edit on the little window that pops up, click on the picture of the icon, it will show you the selection of icon packs, click on the one you want to use for that specific icon, and then you can select any of the icons in the icon pack for that specific icon.

Not sure if that's what you meant by wanting to use multiple icon packs - it's what I do when I use ADW and a single icon pack doesn't cover all the icons. I just download a very similar icon pack and apply the main one to the whole phone and apply the other icons from the other icon packs individually to the icons that weren't covered by the original icon pack.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] quaesitor:
I have three icon packs installed and I have had no problem so far. I use them as a source of icons to apply individually. However, I have not applied an icon pack to my launcher, Nova Prime 8.0.14 Beta, because I haven't determined yet whether or not applying an icon pack to the launcher would cause the icons already in use to be overwritten by those of the pack applied. I'm going to see if I can find out whether or not that happens, and if it does not, then I will apply an icon pack so that icons created in the future will use that pack as its source.

So on my old Toshiba Thrive 10.1, anytime I ran an app that wasn't optimized for the large screen, it asked me if I wanted to stretch to fit or something to that effect. Probably a Gingerbread thing?
