I'm having an issue with clearing defaults. For example, Im using buzz launcher but I can't cleat defaults under application manager so that I can use touch wiz. Also, when I forward links it automatically sends from Messenger. I tried to clear defaults in application manager so that I can forward from gmail. Am I doing something wrong? Should I reflash rom?

edit:I Reflashed the rom but when I go into application manager I still can't clear defaults

I removed the battery and tried again but still stuck

Thanks!!!

I know this recovery isn't exactly current but all the info is here on Goku's page along with the files you will need to PC Odin Philz recovery. ONLY flash the recovery, ignore the rest of the info:

Unable to answer phone calls

Ok, for anyone having issues with incoming answer screen not popping up intermittently, I have a request...

This issue so far has been confirmed on both custom kernels. Flash over to CNexus' stock kernel please and run it that way for several days (at least) to see if the issue persists.

So far, myself and one other user are testing it this way but the more the merrier! :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] easyrider77:
I haven't had any issues that I can remember with this, but have ta ask, what if your using stock kernel, is this pertaining to custom kernels only?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tdunham:
Well, the two kernels DTK and KT reportedly seem to both have this issue.

I've seen several mentions of this but no troubleshooting or resolution so far so I thought I'd take a crack at it because I rely on my phone for business and it could be an important call coming through. ;)

I'm not blaming this on the custom kernels. I'm just trying to narrow down the possibilities. It could be something as simple as a build.prop or init.d tweak that doesn't play nice with the custom kernels ya know?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AlvinT:
Thanks for the quick response, but ...

My problem wasn't with flashing the recovery ... I know how to do that. But the phone is FROZEN.. when I try vol up + pwr + home I gte the same screen that says "RCOVERY BOOTING...".

How do I get to another screen?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tdunham:
That's why I think flashing recovery in download mode may get you going. ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] easyrider77:
Ok. I don't get a lot of phone calls but I'm on stock kernel, so I will try and keep an eye on things on my end

Sprint Galaxy S3 Frozen while trying to install zip

Dear all,

I used TWRP 2.6.3.0 to try to flash a new recovery. The flash hung/froze my device. I have removed battery done vol up/ pwr/ home which has always worked before ... all I get is the same sreen that says SAMSUNG and at the upper left "RECOVERY BOOTING"

I cant get out of that, to reset mode or anything else

Has my installation of the new 8.0 changed what the home and power buttons do? I assume the hardware shouldnt be affected...

PLEASE help

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ramer:

1. Why are you posting the same problem over again?

2. Please describe the step you took in Goo Manager.

It looks like you got a corrupted download, although I've never seen it happen with Goo Manager.

How to get into download mode on the Samsung Galaxy SIII.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tdznfLJsyY
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] easyrider77:
I know you said you pulled the battery.....how long did you leave it out?

I'd suggest leaving it out an amount of time maybe 5 mins.

Also take out the sdcard....I know this may seem like a wierd request, but I am ruleing out ALL other things that may or may not cause issues and beginning from scratch. I can assure you that a 32GB sdcard CAN and HAS caused issues, namely for me, and I still do not have a clue why, but I can tell you that when I installed almost any and all roms from that 32gb card I could not get past the smaller samsung logo screen, it would just go black and stall. Once I went to a 8gb, or 16gb it worked fine......really don't get this either, because I have three 32gb cards class 10 and they ALL do the exact same thing.

So given that, I'd suggest pulling the sdcard, and the battery and waiting approximately 5 mins, just set it down and go do something else for a bit, it'll help the frustration as well, trust me :).

Once you get back, put the battery in, leave the card out for now until you get into a working rom again.

Are you knoxed and perhaps tried to downgrade or something? Almost sounds like it got hosed like when you have knox and try to downgrade the os.

I noticed you are showing vol up.......it's vol down, not up.....up = recovery.....down = download mode....you need to be in download mode, since your recovery is obviously hosed, then use an odin file.....I'd suggest phils odin file

So it would be Vol down + home + power, in that order all at the same time. Hold them down until you see the logo like in the video.

Simply trying to come up with and provide a solution is all, not accusing of anything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tclemens:
Just restart system UI and it will be there you did name it pulldown.png right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AlvinT:
Sorry about the multiple postings. The problem I had (which I perhaps didnt make clear enough) was that my device was frozen.

As I type this I see that easyrider77 understood exactly what the issue was ... I discovered the vol down necessity by trial and error

All is working now ... except Im not sure whether I have a good recovery installed and I'm afraid to check :)

FYI here is what my screen says when I try again to use goomanager

cheers ...a
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] barberboy420:
Naw didn't name it that. About to now. Just renamed and hot boot. No image in pull down:eek:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tdunham:
You can remove the downloaded recovery module from your SD storage and try downloading it again. It is located in a folder called "goomanager".
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tclemens:
On the only other thing I can think of was it a .png image or a renamed jpeg? because it has to be a .png image what I do is put the image on my laptop open with paint or gimp resize save as a .png image then put it in my moar folder and restart system ui
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] barberboy420:
That gotta be it. I used a image resizer and saved as png

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] AlvinT:
I'll try that! Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tdunham:
But if it detects the current version is already installed, it won't redownload.

Then you will have to flash recovery in odin mode like I suggested earlier.

This should overwrite the corrupted recovery and get you going.

[MENTION=2636435]AlvinT[/MENTION] if you are still having issues booting into Recovery. To simplify things DL Rom Manager free from Play Store. Have it flash CWM Recovery. It will do it for you. Then place the Recovery of your choice ( TWRP, Philz, or stay on CWM ) on the SD Card. Boot into Recovery, and flash. If you want, after rebooting delete Rom Manager Free.

used paint on my laptop. resized my image to 1280x1280 then i saved as png renamed to pulldown.png and dropped in ther moar folder rebooted and nada
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] andee39:
From what I've read, your image needs to be either 720x720 or if u want to use landscape, 720x1280. Also I would recommend using the program mentioned in theme thread OP (will go back and see if I can get link) plus the blank pulldown.png that is there. It is already sized and named correctly. I tried resizing an image by myself and ran into all sorts of problems. The program (plus procedure) recommended layers and compresses the image. Just resizing doesn't seem to work; at least not for me.

Like swipe+PIN on MD4 (for example?)? [MENTION=1167171]rompnit[/MENTION]

Yes

And is there a way to remove that green check in the status bar I heard if I just delete it. it will mess up my notifications or something like that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rompnit:
That green check mark is from preparing network? It shouldn't remain there.. Do you have equivalent notifications in your pulldown?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] meyerweb:
I don't think that's right. I believe it needs to be 1280x720 for portrait mode (matching the screen resolution), or 1280x1280 to support both landscape and portrait.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dave74x:
Did you ever make a zip of this? I would like to check it out if you did.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] loaderboy:
When you are at the lockscreen press and hold clock untill it highlights and then swipe to the right. You should have a scereen with a plus mark on it. this is where you can add another widget.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] easyrider77:
Yeah that's how it normally does it, but without adding the mod in it doesn't work, nothing works.

The normal way it works is you can swipe down on the bottom part of the clock, that then makes it full screen, then you can swipe right for camera, left fro widgets, and if none are there there is a big huge PLUS sign to add more widget.....so to add them you tap the plus sign....enter your pattern lock, once that's done a scrollable list of widgets will then come up, so from that list you scroll down to what you want to add IE; calculator or messaging are 2 examples, it then adds it to the screen. Now every time you lock the screen you are presented with a lock pattern, but you can bypass that lock pattern by pulling down or swiping down on the lower end of the clock, and move to the screen widget of choice....these are to the left......you also have a right swipe one screen that is the camera access.

Example:

You want say calculator first then messaging. To do this you would pull down the lower end of the clock, and swipe to the left, where you are presented with a plus sign. Tap the plus sign, and you are then presented with a pattern lock.....unlock the pattern and up comes the list, then scroll down to calculator, it then adds that to that screen. Rinse and repeat with the messaging, so now what you have is.......swiping left you have calculator, swipe once more you have messenger swipe once mroe you have a plus sign where you can then add more screens.

You can also re-arrange these screen by long holding them and moving them just like home screens to your desired placement in order you want them.

Here is the problem....swiping to the left or down does nothing.....just as if no setting within the settings is set.

That's why I was asking what settings withing the mod part do I need to set, because I have as I said, Secure Lock Widgets check marked and it does no good.

More specific instructions of what I did are as follows:

System Settings > (2nd tab over) MOAR Mod Control > Lockscreen options (about 1/2 way down the list) > Secure Lock Widgets (check marked and about 1/2 way down the list. Tap the power button to put the phone to sleep.....tap again to wake I am presented with a clock and a pattern. Swiping down or swiping to either side does nothing, just as I said as if it's not even set for widgets.

What it is SUPPOSE to do is have the plus sign to add widgets, but it's not there without me installing the mod.

So there you have it. Unless I am missing a spot, it's just not working, without adding in the Samsung multiple widgets mod, because the mod does work as specified above, but without it installed it does not work. Perhaps I am overlooking a step or setting, and again this is why I asked where the settings were located at, so as I can set them correctly if indeed I have missed a setting
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jeppuda:
am I The only one with this problem? Can someone who had Nova launcher or something Check if they can clear defaults and switch to the touchwiz launcher please
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] g_money:
Sorry if this was already answered, but...

I store the MOAR update on my external sd. Wipe dalvik (under advanced). Wipe data/factory reset, and then install the new version. Never wiped data partition (not sure if u should). But after doing that, only issues that I've had have been with figuring out settings. Never had issues with wifi/battery drain/phone connwtions/etc. I never flashed dirty (and MOAR is the only rom I've ever installed on this phone) but it seems to have helped me with a lot of headaches?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] loaderboy:
Try setting your unlock to just swipe and see if it works in that mode. If it does then add your widgets and reset your lockscreen to secure and see if they are still there. I don't use a secure lockscreen so I havent tried that yet. OK I just set mine with a PIN and it works. I'm running KT kernel if that makes any difference.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] g_money:

I don't have service on my phone. And any ideas about that thing u said about md4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] easyrider77:
BINGO that was it...thanks.

Under swipe mode (no security) there is an option allow multiple widgets, that was unchecked.......under the other settings IE pin and pattern that option is not available. I had set the pattern before I even set that option so it essentially setting widgets to off.

Just a request...not sure how easy this would be, but is it possible at all to have that set as a separate option, perhaps in another screen or area so as to cause less confusion? :)....because as it is now if you overlook it and set the pattern or pin or other than swiping lock it makes it go away. Just an idea is all.

Thanks loaderboy for the suggestion, it at least brought it to light about that setting being hidden once you pick another option for security other than swipe.

I use an app called Home Managet located here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.carp.HomeManager&hl=en on the play store.

I can switch between TW stock and Apex just fine.

I stopped using nova because it had a weird issue wih border and the little squares the icon went in. The iocn instead of being in the middle would be offset and like at the top of that specified square wich resulted in an odd alignment with icons....especially at the bottom, It would be one high, and others low, and just looked odd, and really bad when it came to picture widgets on the screen.

Also when I go to the home screen, 1 or 2 icons are showing which is not a part of my home screen setup at all and the screen is offset, like it's 1/2 way stuck in 2 home screens, 1/2 of one and 1/2 of another and I have to press home button again to bring the right home screen

I prefer it overall above apex, but not with the bugs it currently has. I might try it again some time, but apex is really nice as well.

I can't believe no one in this thread is having these camera issues...

The camera (BOTH camera apps that I found loaded) completely freezes up, totally locks up the phone, and the phone reboots itself!

What did you do to switch launchers? When I go to application manager, the clear defaults is not highlighted. I cleared cahe and data but it did not help. I then deleted the launcher and it I just got a black screen. Im going to flash nandroid now.

Im also unable to use gmail to send links. For example, when I longpress on a link to forward it to someone it dosent give me the option to choose weather I want to send from gmail or email etc. It sends it straight from text message app. I cannot clear the defaults on the messenger app either. Everything else on the ROM works perfectly. Maybe I shoulde re-download MOAR 8.0 and flash again.

Very nice. Any future plans for:

Lidroid/Wanam extended toggles with a toggle to switch between stock & Lidroid? Not a huge deal but I sort of miss them.

Extend Power Menu all (or at least the important) options on by default and users can remove/add what they want later? I bet it is a little confusing to have the options missing by default on a fresh load.

I did go in to do that... and seems to have helped.

That's VERY odd because I only had really used the one camera, Application Manager showed just that one had data to clear.

The other camera hung up before I could even take a picture, and the phone rebooted... so I wouldn't have thought it related to the camera data.

Do they share data, these two cameras?

Honestly, I can hardly tell them apart, not sure why I have two... they look identical... I haven't manually installed any... anyone know?
