[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Hi! Although I was never as active in the E4GT forums as I was in the old HTC Droid Eris forums, the level of camaraderie and helpfulness in this section was the best, not to mention the selection of ROMs and sheer way above and beyond behavior.

I have a fondness for my old HTC Droid Eris, but for the E4GT, it's the community I'll miss. There were very great people involved in the Eris Development, but there was some drama too. Obviously, the S2 is a very popular phone.

When my fiance and I got the S2 in March of this year, we weren't in as good a place as we are now. Things just keep getting better and we get married at the end of the month. Back in January when I proposed to her, I could never imagine that my life would be where it is now.

My S2 started having a short with the charger port, and although it's under a year warranty and I will get it fixed, I will sell both of our old S2s because Sprint had the S3s for $1 each and I just couldn't refuse - Verizon had the same S3 for $50. Besides, my only fully functional backup phone for when I would send the S2 in for repair is not a smartphone, and not being able to easily sync contacts is a beach.

Now I can get 64GB MicroSD cards for Julie and I too! :D

Anyway, I'm not going to name any one person without naming them all, and I can't name them all - especially because I really should do some work this morning. ;)

Thank you!

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] omegadralta:
Everytime i receive an sms on my exec, after reading it, regardless of option i choose (dismiss, mark as read...) the sms sound continues to play...

This is troublesome because after i finish checking my sms, the sound continues and would disturb people around... I used to have a xda II that has the same problem but pressing the power button stops it. But this time, the exec continues to play the sound when i on the phone again...

For my sms tone, i changed it to an 2 minute wav file, so it has to play for 2 minutes... The size odf the wav file is 6mb...

Not only that... the notification led continues to blink red forever and the device continues to vibrate for 2 minutes...

Is there anyway i can solve this problem? :cry:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurenceGough:
Hi all, I'm a little worried as I love my Nexus 5 coming from a Desire Z but I'd say from as little as 30 mins to up to 8 hours or so I have to reset my phone as all the sensors stop working. Installing a sensor monitoring app it says the output is blank on them all.

Screen rotation, compass, maps and the barometer all stop working.

Anyone else getting this?

I don't think its hardware as a reboot fixes it for a while.

Thanks

Edit:

It also seems to have resolved itself after a while, when I installed a step counting app I checked and the sensors and they were all working again.

A bit odd...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandnamebob:
I am having the same problem. Which step counting app did you install to keep it working?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurenceGough:
Hi

It was an app called Moves - but it ate an absolute load of battery life so I uninstalled it rather quick, it was also pretty crap.

I have this issue very rarely now, I just wish I knew what the problem was caused by.

Have you in the past enabled the ART library?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandnamebob:
I have not used the ART library yet.

The app I noticed the problem in is 'Reddit is Fun' but It is most likely a background app that is causing the issues.

I uninstalled a bunch of them, including Elixer and PressureNet, just to see if I continue to have the issue.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurenceGough:
Ahh OK. I installed an app called barometer+ so I could make use of the pressure sensor. I think it has background logging as well. Perhaps it is this causing it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smalovic:
I'm having the same issue. Right now I'm just restarting my phone whenever I notice it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurenceGough:
smalovic do you have any weather apps or pressure sensor apps (or anything like that)?

Have you tried the ART libary at all?

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smalovic:
I have PressureNet installed. I switched to the ART library but I'm getting the same problem.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DreamLinker:
Hi all,

Same issue here. I'm using syspressure app for background pressure logging. I switched to a every 5 mins sample rate instead of 1. Now I will try to see if it's happening again.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaurenceGough:
My Barometer+ app was set to hour updates...

I guess we can all relate to a pressure app, probably the cause...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DreamLinker:
Setting SyPressure sample rate to 5 minutes has done nothing.

After about 30 mins of standby all sensors stopped working again.

Now I have disabled the widget of SyPressure that means no background logging anymore.

I will update the status.

---------- Post added at 09:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 AM ----------

UPDATE:

After about 30 mins of standby all sensors still WORKING.

Now I will try to wait much more than 30 minutes :P

I will update!! ;)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DreamLinker:
UPDATE 2:

After more than 1 hour, sensors still OK!

I will try overnight and check it out.

Anyway also battery perfomence seems to be better, 1 hour ago charge was at 33% and now is still alt 33% :D

:)

PS. Sorry for my english
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smalovic:
I uninstalled PressureNet yesterday and left it overnight. Everything's still working this morning!

It must be some glitch with the barometer apps.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guybrush85:
Same problem here. I also have sypressure on my phone. I've uninstalled sypressure a day ago, and for now everything work fine
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markbruce:
I have the same infuriating issue.

My device: Nexus 5

Build: KRT16M

Unlocked, TWRP Recovery, Root, Chainfire's SuperSU

I also have "pressureNET" app installed for logging pressure readings.

After reboot all sensors work fine. Installed app "Sensor Sense" confirms this. Then randomly at some point in time, 2 or 5 or 8 hours later most sensors stop working and it is always the same ones.

Battery, Location, Light, and Proximity all continue to work fine indefinitely.

Pressure, Accelerometer, Gravity, Gyroscope, Linear Acceleration, Rotation, and Magnetic Field all fail and no apps can make a call on these sensors as part of their function.

This is most readily and frequently apparent in (i) the "Gallery" in which rotating the screen no longer results in auto-rotation of images, (ii) orientation of recorded images and videos with "Camera" in which the capture is locked into one orientation and videos shot in landscape (for example) end up with an on-their-side portrait orientation when viewed, and (iii) YouTube videos can no longer orientate when playing and the screen is changed to a different orientation e.g. load video in portrait mode, flip horizontal, and video no change or adaptation occurs, (iv) going into a PhotoSphere results in a black screen of nothing, (v) "Compass" doesn't work, (vi) "Skymap" doesn't work, etc. etc.

Would love to see a resolution to this issue; this is the first forum or instance of discussing the problem on the Web that I have found.

Robooting the device resets everything and all sensors (and apps) work fine as normal.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smalovic:
Uninstall pressureNET, reboot, and you should be all set.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markbruce:
Resolved

I confirm that "pressureNET" was the app causing the other sensors to crash.

50 hours after uninstalling and rebooting there has been no recurrence of the problem; all sensors and the handset have worked flawlessly throughout.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smalovic:
Reading the other replies, it seems as though any barometer app causes the issues.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] busywaffles:
Damn, I'm having the same issue intermittently. Might have to uninstall the app until they get this sorted out, which is a shame because the sample size for reading in my region is probably very small.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smalovic:
Looks like the pressureNET dev is working on a fix. He posted on Reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/1qzg0n/nexus_5_sensor_issues_whats_going_on/

Any ideas?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
Maybe theres a different factory image for both versions? I think you can still install more than 16 GB it might just say it has 16 and if you go over it will fix? Sorry I'm just throwing out ideas. But someone had this problem on the nexusn10 as well maybe if you search in that forum you can see if/how he was able to solve it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlackR84:
There is only 1 image for the Nexus 5 on Google devs page. However, this is also the case for the Nexus 4 and when I restored that to stock yesterday - it correctly shows as 16gb rather than the 8. Will try to find the Nexus 10 thread though
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SlackR84:
Fixed.

TWRP -> Wipe -> Format Data.

I assume maybe old version of adb I was using created the partition too small when I did a format userdata?

Anyways, sorted now.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
That's good. Now if others have then problem we'll no a solution! Maybe you should modify op with solution

My brother has S3 which was working fine before this.

Today in morning he took out sim from it, the phone was off, and put sim in another phone. The phone was in the drawer the whole time and powered off.

So in evening he inserted sim, turned it on and it shows no sim detected. Did a bit reboots but no good.

I also have S3, so i took my sim and inserted it and it did not detect it.

His sim is working well in my cell phone but his cell phone is not detecting any sim, neither mine nor his.

I have checked for EFS and IMEI problem but both are intact, IMEI is not corrupt.

The phone is not even rooted, and it has 4.1.2 rom and it is the build before the MG4, and he has not even flashed since opening it from box.

Now i have no idea what should be done.

Can someone guide me in this matter?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I would recommend getting it repaired.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Reads as probable sim holder repair / replace
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
First read the faqs and guides .

EFS?IMEI

You backed up your EFS folder ???
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] converse5:
It does not have warranty remaining :(

what if i try and flash a latest build? would it work?

But before that it was working and there was nothing that could have happened to it. I am thinking to flash the latest build but just wanna know before doing something stupid.

I will surely backup EFS, so that i dont lose IMEI.

Guys,

This is my first post after getting a new Sony Xperia C (INDIA). Before this, i was a proud owner of a Motorola Atrix 2 !!!

I have seen many people searching (even i was one of them) for Xperia C root which is not yet available. I finally found a .exe in a chinese forum for Sony Xperia c39h and guess what i was able to root my phone in the 1st attempt.

Attaching the package, enable USB Debugging on phone, attach the phone to PC or laptop and then run the Sony Xperia C Root.exe. All the credits goes to its developer.

Enjoy Sony Xperia C users:D

Thanks

Phone Dead !!!

Hello,

While following http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2160490 , I somehow bricked my phone. Using the MTK tool, i was putting the CWM recovery, on the PC screen it said it was successful and rebooting however the phone did not turn up even waiting for 30 minutes. So i unplugged the phone and found that it wont even turn on now. Tried everything i could but nothing happens when i push the Power On button.

Tried charging the battery, did a reset by removing the back door. It doesn't even boot to recovery of fastboot mode. Tried pushing in the boot.img and recovery.img using the fastboot but the is not getting detected.

So finally gave it to the service centre. Let's see by tomorrow evening they willl let me know if it is a Software or Hardware problem. Just hoping that

it is a hardware problem and the service centre guys doesn't come to know about the Root and the stuff i was trying :D..

If it is a hardware problem, then they said they will get the phone replaced:D

Keeping my fingers crossed;)

Thank you for posting this information to root Xperia C, but I have already rooted it using 'V Root' Chinese version, which I got from Internet. Does this rooting method install the CWM ?
[Sony Xperia C] ubuntuish:
Some info

I own an Mtk6589 device. From my experience mediatek devices are very sensitive. Flashing a wrong recovery is enough to corrupt the baseband and you will end up having a phone with no network. Do not play with it unless you have a spflash tool flashable firmware.

I dont think there is any bootloader unlocking needed. Mtk6589 devices dont even come with fastboot mode usually. The flashing is done via VCOM mode,which you enter via pluging the phone to usb while in switch off mode.

If you have rooted,plz upload a backup. You can take full rom backup using Online Nandroid Backup Tool ( search Playstore )
[Sony Xperia C] Xillreall Viz:

thx guys :)
[Sony Xperia C] mustang2011:
Benchmark on Antutu is above 13000 and battery life is very good BUT camera is not giving very good results as expected from Sony 8mp phone, also video playback is not very sharp even with Bravia 2 engine, and audio output volume is very low compared to other Sony phones, so decide for yourself if you want it or not.
