[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BBobby:
I just got a Note 2 SPH-L900 (Sprint) it has a bad ESN for sprint but my intention was to flash it to cricket. I had noticed the same thing before the flash over to Cricket (I was messing with it over wifi etc and I did flash cm10.2 nightly just for the heck of it, then back to stock) but I could not verify service since I am not a Sprint customer. However the issue seems to not be carrier-specific.

When I flash custom ROMs I do not have service. No call, no data, nothing but wifi. The signal bar is empty and I get a big "?" Where the carrier is supposed to be. Also under "status" there is many blank spaces, no phone number, no carrier etc. Upon factory restore (which was done 2 or 3 times to ensure a bad ROM flash was not the culprit) the service icons and settings come back as before and everything works well.

I have tried two separate ROMs that give me the same issue: cyanogenmod 10.2 nightly

Rootbox jelly bean

Anyone know what may be wrong? I do not think this has to do anything with the flash over to cricket, since before it was doing the same thing. Any setting/procedure that I may be missing?

Edit: I did not do anything with kernels. My stock ROM android version is the 4.1.2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BBobby:
Well, i got it working now!!! i did reflash the modem to the latest MC2 version, then installed a custom kernel, Sleshepics the governor 1.7.

Then i reflashed the CM10.2 nightly and i magically have signal and data working.

SO EXCITED!

trying to flash my galaxy note ii sph-l900.. need help

i went to a couple of places and they said it couldnt be done.. it has low signal ... it only works on certain areas..:(

need help
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] BBobby:
Well it all depends on your signal. I live in Austin TX and cricket has great service here, with some dead spots out in the country (no big deal). 3g speeds are as fast as Sprint's 4g LTE.

The problem I was having had to do when I was flashing custom ROMs I was lising service.

I updated the modem drivers. It did the trick. I havent list service since and ive flashed like 6 ROMs so far.

Hey all,

So I was on Philz recovery (Kangabean Rom) I decided I wanted to go back to normal CWM touch. Flashed what I thought was the right zip and boom..no recovery + yellow triangle.

Turns out I flashed the normal i9505 version :eek:

To make a long story short I can't get ANY recovery back despite my efforts. Tried via goo manager to install TWRP real fast, didnt work. Tried via odin but couldn't get odin to see my phone in download mode.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
What state is your phone on. It gets into download mode? Will it boot? Odin is your option right now. Keep trying, use original usb cable, use the usb ports in the back of your computer, try a different computer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] viperguy212:
I'm able to boot into download which enables me to boot into the OS as well. I'm going to keep giving it a go on the Odin side, im also downloading the stock firmware as well in case i need to go that drastic.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] viperguy212:
Update: Was able to install some strange version of CWM through terminal emulator on the phone using some files I found. I tried to flash philz again...wiped it out and got a yellow triangle again..

Think stock firmware flash is the best way to go?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Febby:
1. Download this recovery IMG.

https://db.tt/Yp1NzlqZ

2. Move the file "recovery.img" from "sdcard/download/" to root of your internal sdcard.

3. Open terminal emulator and enter the following command lines:

su

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21

4. Recovery should have flashed! Enjoy and remember to move the file recovery to the root of your internal sdcard or else the command prompt line won't work.

THANK YOU

I did this and it got a working recovery back on my phone. I think I preferred TWRP to clockwork at this point, but honestly either one does the same thing, and I am able to make a backup of my phone which was what I wanted. Also a phone with no recovery just screams a disaster waiting to happen for me. I ended up losing recovery after running triangle away, has anyone else had this happen?

Hi All

I have recently updated my XDA-2 to Win2003SE (Sin Merged Version, 2.06.00WWE)

The issue I am having is that when I sync my Emails the attachments do not come accross. :cry:

I recently tried removing the pmailAttachs as some one recomended and this did make it better in the sence that I can now synce the files to the phone and they do appear as attachments but I cannot open them.

I have also tried the CleanMail program from Sprite Software but have also not had any luck with this. Please could you let me know if how I can fix this issue.

:?:

Many thank!
[General Topics] fudgebottom:
I have just found out that the cause of my problem was that no program was accosiated with pictures for some reasion... I loaded up the picture program unticked all the boxes, exited and then reticked them again and all is working fine now :-)

Thanks guys.. I still think if any one else has this problem you might stil have to use the CleanMail.exe program from Sprite Software to fix the initial problem and then reassosiate all your picture and sound files after that :-)

Two suggestions, either overclock with a kernel such as ElemantalX 1.8, and/or use a task killer app to close unused running programs. My flo is much more responsive than it was stock.

Just this morning I somehow managed to turn on the very annoying "loading started, page loaded" voice when opening the browser. I have no idea how I did it. I read many other threads about this and they say turn off talk back or disable all options under accessibility settings. I have done that and it still shouts out the message every time I use the browser. Where else can I look to turn this off?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Will_T:
I have discovered that installing any of many different apps from the playstore can trigger this behavior on Samsung phones. Appears to be no solution but to listen to the voice every time you use the browser or any number of other things that trigger it. Here is a thread that discusses it:

Sorry am not allowed to post links. If you go to Samsung dot developer dot com and search for "Samsung devices and Accessibility Services", maybe you can find the long thread about the issue.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Will_T:
Thanks, but they are both off. The link I wanted to post to the other developer forum explains pretty well what caused my problem I think since I had installed one of those apps. Nobody seems to know how to fix it though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmike6453:
I had the same issue when installing "AOSP Browser"

Uninstalled it, restarted phone and issue was resolved
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Will_T:
Eventually when I am able to post links here I can link to some other forums where this is discussed. Apparently it is a bug in the Samsung software on this phone, the Note 2 and both the S3 and S4. Certain types of apps, like Missed Message for example, monitor things via the accessibility part of the phone and that somehow makes the Samsung software think TalkBack is on even when it is not. Samsung has acknowledged the problem but has not been able to fix it. Uninstalling any apps that use Accessibility Services stops the issue. If you want to use an app like that anyway, then using Chrome instead of the default browser helps although it will still crop up in a few other places. It is sure interesting if you are in a quiet room and suddenly your phone shouts out "loading started, page loaded, loading started, page loaded"

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sroc81:
I had this issue on my Samsung Note 3 with the latest available software update and TalkBack switched off.

In my case, I have a Pebble smartwatch which, for some reason, requires Accessibility settings to send notifications. With Pebble activated, I get the "Loading started" and "Page loaded" voiceovers in the stock Internet browser. With Pebble disabled, the voiceovers stop. So until this is fixed, I have to make a choice between giving up on the Pebble or putting up with annoying voiceovers.

As a temporary fix, I tried downloading another voice which had settings that allowed me to adjust the speed of the voice so that the voiceovers became merely a brief noise. Then I realised that the same voice is used for navigation instructions in Google Maps, making them utterly unintelligible.

Fingers crossed for an update.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Will_T:
As you can see from other forums, this has been a problem with a couple of generations of Galaxies now. Samsung seemed to indicate several months ago that they had fixed it, but that was not the case. Now there seems to be no communication from Samsung on the issue. So I would not hold your breath for a fix. It must not be an easy one.

I started using Chrome instead of the stock browser and at least in Chrome the annoying voice overs do not occur. I also do not get them in my gallery like some people do. Then I cleared the "default" setting in the Application Manager>Internet tab. Then I opened a link in an email and was asked which browser I wanted and I set it to Chrome, Always.

This has made the issue tolerable for me. The only real, complete, solution is not to use any apps that tag in to the Accessibility setting. And to not use the Pebble either, I guess. Not really good solutions at all but boy I sure love this phone anyway!

As Mopar said, you need to turn off Talkback, and the most important that you need to make sure all the language setting must be the same. ie all English, all spanish, all chinese etc.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Johneboy:
My Xperia Go has recently developed a strange issue that I'm trying to figure out how to fix.

Periodically the screen will not turn on. When pressing the power button nothing happens except the Home, Menu and Back buttons flash for a split second. It can stay like this for hours and then start working again. I have tried performing hard resets when the issue happens. The phone vibrates like you would expect, but the screen still stays off.

Has anyone else seen this issue and know if it is a software issue or hardware?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Happened to me more than once flashing all kind of strange ROMs and apps, and messing with my phone.

Backup your phone and do factory data reest and see if the problem persists.

It could be hardware related but more likely it's just software.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Johneboy:
Had a go at this at the weekend. Did a full backup and a full restore using Sony PC Companion. The phone worked perfectly until last night then it displayed the same problem.

Possibly unrelated, but I did notice that after the restore none of the photo thumbnails are showing in the Album app even though the pics are there. You can tap in the empty space in the app and pics will load. Secondly, it restored my Outlook.com account, but not the entry for it under Accounts in the Settings menu. Consequently I can't cange any settings for that account. So I've managed to introduce another couple of issues for my trouble!

I'm leaning to this more being a hardware fault now, unless anyone else can suggest otherwise?

Restore only the assentials (contacts/call log) the rest set manually and see how it goes.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] levi_jm:
Download "Galaxy Charging Current" from the play store and check how many amps you're receiving. You should be getting more than 800ma for your phone to charge properly.

Isn't this related to the battery swelling issue discovered recently ?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rymngh:
The battery isn't swelling. It lasts like 8 hours if no data use. So i think its not because of faulty batts.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DummyPLUG:
Are you using the original S4 USB cable? you need a very good usb cable in order to change with high ma, it should be about 1500ma if you are using a good usb cable (with the original charger)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pfeffernuss:
Depends on the firmware/kernel. Newer (stock) firmwares (>MGA) limit the charging at 1200mAh while the screen is on and 1900mAh with the screen off.

Custom kernels can charge at 1900mAh with the screen on.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] levi_jm:
Some cables are unable to generate more than 600ma. If it is the original Samsung charger, change the cable. If it is the original cable, get a 2A charger. If it's both, chances are, its the cable. Good luck.

+1

First day i was testing different wall chargers (Samsung stock and non Samsung) with different cables combinations using a current widget. Results: original white Samsung data cable still in the box (bad impedance causing low current) and using stock wall charger with a generic data cable better than original.

We all assume hi is trying stock all charger and stock kernel...

---------- Post added at 08:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 PM ----------

The limit is the same (1900 with original wall charger and good data cable), the 700 mA difference is because screen consumption plus non idle cpu state... It is, 1900 always enter in the device, 1900 enter in the battery if no consumption (screen off), about 1200 enter in the battery if screen and cpu consumption (on).

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaswinky:
Yes, it is just a consecuente from the 1st Thermodinamic Principle... The consumption of a turned on screen and a working cpu is not zero...

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pfeffernuss:
You don't say, really? :good:

Older firmwares let the phone charge at 1900 with screen on or with screen off. More recent firmwares limit the charge to 1200 when the screen is on.

With a custom kernel this can be changed back to the original 1900, with the screen on. What is so hard to understand about that? No need to go into science again, I do understand all that irrelevant stuff anyway.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaswinky:
Thats amounts are not the limitation into the phone, but the net current into the battery, the difference between that limitation you refer and the actual current consumption for the screen and cpu. I think it is not complicated to understand... You don't need to explain me about what custom kernels can or can't do about it, i know, i collaborated with Aaccount here in xda for enabling "fast charging" on his A1 kernel for our Samsung Galaxy Tab P75xx...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DJMaj07:
MX Player on Google Play may be a suitable alternative for you. You can download a plugin called Kid Lock or something like that (also on Google Play) which will lock the screen. Install both and see if they work.

:: What's this? ::

I always thought that Wrixituz Particles boot animation for the original Nexus 7 was one of the most amazing boot animations, and I still use it because it's so awesome! :good:

This is a conversion for the new Nexus 7, with a modified desc.txt to upscale to full HD (and it looks about the same as on the old N7).

:: Video preview ::

[YOUTUBE]fq0U43hjDJA[/YOUTUBE]

:: Download ::

EDIT: I've size optimized the animation by using a delay in the desc.txt file, and fixed the image numbering.

LINK

:: Installation ::

Drop the bootanimation.zip in your /data/local folder, and it should be working on next bootup!

You might have to set your permissions for bootanimation.zip to rw-r--r-- in order to get it working.

:: Credits ::

All credits go to Wrixituz for the original animation - this is merely a minor modification to make it work on N7 FHD (or any other device with a 1200x1920 resolution for that matter).

And thanks to thor6577 for his boot animation thread, which partly inspired me to do this conversion.

Enjoy :D

:: Bonus ::

Same boot animation for the Nexus 4, also size optimized.

When I use it, it uses the full animation - it sounds like you only get the first part for some reason. Do you have a similar problem with other boot animations, and do other people experience the same problem?

Wooo nice one. :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps] ameinild:
Now I've optimized the animation by reducing the file size, and I've also fixed the image numbering.

If it still only shows the first part of the animation, I have no clue what might be the cause of that - I can tell that it works perfectly for me. :)

I've also added an optimized version of the same boot animation in 768x1280 for the N4.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps] NekroWolfen:
For some reason some of my personal boot animations just play the first part, and I can't figure out why. The only way to solve this is reducing the image size or not using greater number of images in one loop. I'm still on it, because I've seen boot animations with bigger image size and in greater numbers that still plays just fine.

If you find a way please tell me as I'm in the same boat.

By the way, yours work fine in my device.
