[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] racoonlab:
Hi all,

I have this annoying issue with [AOSP] Official 4.4.2 - S4 Google Edition - Final-R4 from jamal2367; current baseband installed XXUFNA1.

Problem:

When the phone loses connection, it dies. Then there is no way I can turn it on.

if unplugged from the power: it starts to boot and it dies again, sometimes at the "samsung boot text", sometimes a bit ahead, but it does not go further than the animated logo with 4 coloured bouncing balls (it does not matter how many time I try to restart the phone)

If plugged: it survives the first part of the boot most of the time, but it loops into the animated logo with the 4 coloured bouncing balls and the phone does not start.

Solution:

Every time I have to re-install Android, by:

- deleting Dalvik, Data, System, Cache.

- Install the ROM

- Apply a factory reset

At this point, if connected to the plug, the phone starts, but I have to go through the manual installation process.

This is a bit annoying I have to admin, anyone with this kind of issue, or am I the only one?

A few more info:

Phone was working great with jamal2367 4.3 (don't remember the baseband)

After 4.4 was out I installed it, but it was booting every 5 minutes or so, I decided then to go back to 4.3.

When I went back to 4.3, baseband was changed, but I kept the hold one.

Phone started to have random reboots as well, but once every 3-4 days, so I was ok with it.

4.4 releases were progressing so, after a while I decided to put it back.

I had the problem described above with previous (recent) baseband (like ml6and mj6).

Now I have the latest, but I have got the problem anyway.

A wild guess:

The phone now charges very quickly, I am wondering if the percentage that I see is realistic. Maybe it runs out of battery, which it could explain why the phone dies on reboots, but it does not explain why it loops once plugged in and why it does not turn off normally instead of just dying with a blink of an eye.

mmm that should not be the reason

Another wild guess:

I couldn't target a specific application. Sometimes it dies using fb, sometimes maps, sometimes hangout, sometimes a after a long phone call. The first two have "location" active, but I don't think that the last two are using it.

mmm that should not be the reason either.

A consideration:

I have noticed that once Android is installed, the phone signal is quite good, but then it goes down to one or two lines only. Most of the time I have one line only (in my area) and when it disappear, 6 times out of 7 it dies.

Thanks in advance.

too long

be sure to flash from zero, wipe everything then flash 4.3

if everything fils go to stock 4.3 or 4.4 TW, then flash 4.4 gpe after
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anubhav Agrawal:
did you try battery calibration?

also format everything in recovery before flashing,that should do the trick..

or maybe try another rom,if you still have issues then you may have to take it to Samsung care
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] racoonlab:
Nope I will give it a try

Well, when I delete Dalvik, Data, System and Cache, I do it once I am inside _teamwin recovery_, I can also think about another ROM, but the one from jamal2367 is quite popular and I find it weird that no one else have the same issue.

Thanks for your reply though.

I fixed it by flashing the stock image from samsung, and start all over again with cf_root and recovery. I use CWM, but that dont matter I think.

Hi There,

this is actually a launcher related question, hope its ok to post it here.

I recently updated my I9300 to Cyanogenmod 11.

After testing Smart Launcher and reverting back to Launcher 3 (or any other launcher for that matter), I cannot get rid of the ugly toast notification design of Smart Launcher, even after uninstalling it.

is there an option or workaround to get the original design back?

Hi to all. Recently I upgraded from cm 10.1.3 to mokee 4.4.2. However, I had to revert to cm 10.1.3 because of an app issue. Now, I'm ready to try the official nightlies of cm 11, but when I install TB and go to the backup folder on my ext SD card, it doesn't recognise them when trying to use the batch restore. However it DOES recognise them when selecting the backup folder, but nothing works. Also, these backups worked on the previous install of mokee 4.4.2 release version, so any thing I can do?

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
[MENTION=5413575]jccarbon[/MENTION]

Restoring across different ROMs isn't recommended, but you can try it.

Did you enable in TB meta-data (for restoring across uncompatible ROMs)?

You could that way at least ceirtanly restore data only for some apps (like your levels in Angry Birds)
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mord Fustang:
Try to backup the APKS of your device, and backup the folder Android/data on your sdcard. So when you want to restore it just install it as an usual aplication and copy the data folder, so you won´t lose your game progress.

I am running CleanRom. This issue also happened when I was running Venom XL. Whenever I turn the screen off or the timer turns it off I lose both data and cell service. If it has only been a few minutes it turns back on. If it is a longer time I have to restart phone.

Any suggestions?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
A suggestion? One word: search. This is probably the millionth time this has been discussed, in the ROM threads, and in the q&a section you're posting in. So clearly you haven't bothered to search/read.

Use the search feature in any Sense 5 ROM thread and you'll find the answer you're looking for. And search before posting in future.

I have searched... Did you really take the time to be a jerk and not help someone out? Amazing... I will look elsewhere.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You didn't search properly then, this is the single most discussed issue in our forum by far. Do I really need to search for you to show even a fraction of the posts that discuss the solution? Like I said, it's been discussed extensively in every Sense 5 ROM thread. Plus there are numerous threads dedicated to this subject in this q&a section.

PS. Calling someone a jerk would be classed as abusive and/or flaming, both things that are also against the rules. I'm not a jerk for pointing out that you didn't search well enough to find the most talked about topic in our forum.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Jklsr55:

I have had a Vega Holster for pretty much all my previous cell phones, it does a great job of protecting them and looks great. You can get it in black too.

I couldn't find anyone in the US selling this great holster, they are handmade in Italy and the company is based in the UK.

I ordered through Orate, and it drop ships from the manufacturer via registered USPS in about 10 days for GPB 25 + GPB 5 P&P. Total was about $45.

Here's the link to Orate:-

http://www.orate.co.uk/acatalog/index.html

Here's the link to Vega if you want more info

http://www.vega-holsters.com/Home.asp?ID=1

Also the Vega model number is 1R108.

No affialiation, just wanted to say that I got good service from a hard to find but great holster....

How would I describe it? Excessive build quality! :shock: 8)

I used a Vega holster for my Sony Ericsson Z600 for a couple of years. Amazing quality -- same construction as the heavy duty leather holsters they make for guns. Last forever.

Only questions, though, using a Vega holster with an MDA:

1) is the ringing sound muffled? My Z600 was REALLY hard to hear when it was in the holster -- I depended on vibrate when it was holstered.

2) How easy is it to get the MDA out of the holster when it rings -- without getting your fingers all over the screen?

Great looking and beautifully made products -- but I'd only be interested in this were really a good functional accessory for the MDA...otherwise, no point.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] robwestcott:
direct link

tim, can you post a link directly to the Vega model number is 1R108 on the orate site. i have searched and canno tfind it and have emailed orate and received no reply.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] Tim Fountain:
1) I haven't notice the muffled ring, but I have it on vibrate 99% of the time.

2) It was a little tight at first, but a couple of nights stuffed with paper loosened it up. Also I had to put the phone in 'upside down' otherwise the battery cover was pulled off - By the way the design of the battery cover is one of the worst features of the phone! Screen 'dirt' was not a problem.

The main reason I got the phone was the protection, so many of the other cases don't protect the sides from knocks etc.

Re: direct link

Go to link http://www.orate.co.uk/acatalog/i-Mate_K-Jam.html and scroll all the way to the bottom. Vega link is there. It doesn't show the model number, but I took that from the stamping directly on the back of my holster. Hope it helps.

I am surprised that Vega are still in business, it is so damn hard to buy their holsters in the US. I emailed them to let them know they need to beef up their re-sellers in the US, they didn't even bother to respond. If I had received a reply, I was going to look into the logistics of setting up shop here. Orate seem to be OK though. Not that it matters, but I found out that Orate place a drop-ship order with Vega and it is shipped from Vegas' warehouse directly to the you, with signed, delivery confirmation in a jiffy bag and bubble wrap. Seemed to work well.

How does this case attach to your belt? I can't tell.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] robwestcott:
from the item description:

>>>

This fully lined belt holster can be worn on the belt or simply used as a case. lt features an injection moulded nylon spring clip that locks on to the belt or, for a more secure fastening, the belt may be threaded through the slots and worn either horizontal or vertical to the belt.

When worn near the rear trouser pocket the holster is comfortable and the mobile phone is instantly accessible while sitting or walking. Designed to fit belts up to 4 cm width.

>>>
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] jonazen:
The Vega holster I've used with my SE Z600 is almost identical - just a bit small as befits the smaller phone - but it's the same construction.

The leather is fantastic - like what you'd get with a very thick, high quality belt, with incredibly durable and tight stitching. The clip looks like black plastic - but it's far tougher than ordinary plastic, being made of nylon. A flat tab on the clip slides into a slot in the back of the holster and has a couple of short raised posts on it that fit into corresponding holes (1/8" or so) in the back of the holster -- these lock the clip into the holster so it doesn't pull out by accident -- but you can lift the tab and disengage the posts from the holes easily when you want to, and slide the nylon tab out, removing the clip from the holster when desired. The reason you might want to do this would be to take advantage of the vertical or horizontal belt slots in the back of the holster -- If you don't want to use the nylon clip, you can thread your belt through the slots in the back of the case. Definitely harder than using the clip - but there's NO way the case will come off your belt that way!

Anyway - assuming you keep the clip on the phone - it's a good sized clip, easy to use and very effective. It's large enough to slip over anything from a narrow dress belt to a wide thick belt. The open end of the clip curves back, forming a closed loop when you're not holding it open against the springy tension of the nylon. Maybe that's hard to visualize from my description - but what that means is that you slide the clip over your belt, and as open end clears your belt, the material sort of "springs shut", effectively forming a loop around your belt. It simply will NOT fall off your belt accidentally.

You can also slip the clip over the edge of a pair of pants (if you don't have a belt on), and I regularly clipped it to the carrying strap on my equipment bag when I'd go to the dojo to practice.

I love the contruction, and it's an unusual and handsome case. It should last far longer than your phone.

My only concerns would be:

- the potential for the ringing sound to be muffled

- the difficulty in grabbing the phone out of the holster without inadvertantly pressing one of the buttons that I did not WANT to press

I'm a Vega fan in general, but I'm wondering if I would like a Krusell Cabriolet better for the MDA. I'd love to see one in person before making that decision!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] alexwinsberg:
Thanks for the help on the clip! Sounds like exactly the thing I am looking for as a second case.

How is the useability of the case specific to the MDA?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] Rev.Stanley:
Ordered this case from the same company (orate.co.uk). They sent me the wrong case (1R164). This case is way to big for this phone. I see in your posting that you got another one model number that I'm assuming fits the MDA better. I emailed them 2 days ago, but have gotten no reply. Does anyone know of a company in the US to get this case from?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] Tim Fountain:
US Vega Vendor

I looked long and hard for a US supplier, with no luck, so I think you will have to resolve this with Orate.

When I called them to find out where my holster was, I got a good impression of the company, the owner (I think has name was Graham, but I can't be sure) answered all my questions.

This month I created a new kernel to compensate for the lost stability in Badass, and I thought it would be nice to share it with you.

Based on the original 2.6.35 source from Samsung OpenSource Software, this kernel is cleaner than Badass, without unnecessary hybrid updates and risky mods.

Features:

3-step Undervolted

Brain F*ck Scheduler 0.413 with O(1) complexity instead of O(n)

UltraKSM 0.122

Sweep2Wake

DoubleTap2Wake (on the upper half of the screen)

DoubleTap2Play/Pause (on the lower half of the screen)

DoubleTap2Lock (on the StatusBar)

SwipeBack

Pocket Keyguard (to avoid accidental unlocks when the phone is inside the pocket)

SIOPlus I/O Scheduler

Optimized Wheatley CPU Governor

Fast Random Generator (frandom)

LowMemoryKiller 3.4

Entropy tweaks (haveged service, binfmt_elf.c code optimization)

Dynamic Readahead, cache pressure and writeback parameters

Adaptive Overclock

Changelog:

v1.4

New Adaptive Overclock feature

Fully functional LowMemoryKiller from 3.4 kernel

LZ4 compression for ZRam, kernel and ramdisk

v1.3

Fix multitouch

Add 825MHz and 844MHz overclock frequencies

v1.2

Improve branch prediction for Tass drivers

Add Dynamic Overclock

Implement Dynamic cache pressure and writeback parameters

Global SwipeBack feature (swipe left from the right side of the action bar)

Disable kernel logs (printk)

Add modified Wheatley governor

Update Zram and ZsmAlloc drivers from androidarmv6 sources

Make most launcher unkillable

Use different minfree/adj configuration for improved multitasking

Add a NoSweep kernel version

v1.1

Add Landscape mode for DoubleTap2Lock

Update BFS to 0.416

Add AOKP build

Downloads​

What is Adaptive Overclock?

If the max frequency is higher then 600 MHz, the CPU will be allowed to use that frequency only in extreme cases, when it is actually needed. (e.g. gaming, surfing internet, heavy multitasking)

This feature works only with the Wheatley governor.

Don't use scripts/perfomance packs/Crossbreeder on this kernel. Just don't.
