Hi

Yesterday when i woke up my whatsapp was empty,no groups no chats,Nothing!

and from that my N5 started to reboot,i was on Slim Kat+Franco r35.

I flashed to stock rom using fastboot formating everything and still some app crashes and reboots,so did it again and again and nothing stills reboot on everything stock without root...

So what can i try?i live outside USA so RMA its a problem...

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zevim2005:
I think that reboot and crash happens in system apps...maybe the partition is corrupted?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zevim2005:
someone?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
What apps do crash exactly? Have you tried a factory reset in /settings/backup and restore?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zevim2005:
Mostly when i use chrome it crash and sometimes reboot sometimes no,drive crashs,clock,and some others non system apps and reboot...

Will try,but i flashed stock with fastboot so many times that i thought is unnecessary.

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zevim2005:
Didnt helped,factory reset and didnt installed anything and chrome crash and reboot after 15 seconds of use!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Don' t know what else to do flashing stock or reset. Reset the tampered flag an relock the BL andere RMA/ Repair the device. Good luck mate :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zevim2005:
Yep,did everything and no hope,now i realize that the screen starts to flicker a little bit before reboot,i hope that the problem isn't a wireless charger that i bought in amazon and used last two months,do you think will be a problem to RMA?

Thanks

Hi,

Posted this question in the prophet forum but thought it might not be just unique to the prophet.

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=53384

Can anyone tell me how to turn off logging and creating these large files? Their file name is DbgToStorageLogX.txt where X is a number.

It seems to generate up to 4 of these all around 3mb each.

I can delete them manually, except for the one that is currently being written to. I've searched through the registry but can't find what is causing it and can't find any reference to the file on the net or this forum.

Thanks,

Craig.

Hey guys,

So, I was running CM10.2 and wanted to get back to KitKat. I flashed Slimkat, and then the day after, Slim dropped their official, so I reflashed that, everything was fine, except I don't get notification sounds. Even if I go to settings, when I try and select a sound, it just doesn't play. I tried a few other roms, Pacman, Beanstalk, Going back to the non offical relase of slimkat, and still, everything is fine, except for no notification sounds.

Any ideas what could be causing this? Or how to fix?

I had this problem before, and was able to just use odin to flash a stock image and then reflash a custom rom, but I'd like to avoid that this time if possible.

My phone will not stay charged the whole day.

Attached a screenshot of battery usage. Yesterday the phone would not charge by computer, it said something about insufficient current.

This wasn't a problem before updating from 4.3 to 5.7

Please help.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syaoran68:
well based on the SS your having some wakelock issues with the venom service as well as the bookmark backup lols.. and as for the insufficient charge, your probably plugging the phone into a side usb port which doesnt have enough juice to charge the phone. better try a port thats directly on the PC/Laptop you have.

i would get better battery stats to see whats going on wakelock wise. once you get there you should be able to figure it out or we will atleast have more info to go on.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznspdrmn:
alright looks like my phone is charging from the laptop now. I have since re-installed the ROM clean with no carry over settings or apps. Up to this point everything "seems" to be fine although the battery goes down roughly 1% every 2-3min. I have downloaded better battery stats but don't know what to post so I'll post everything that has stats coming up
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syaoran68:
good work. you need to just let the phone run normally the way you would normally use it for maybe like an hour or 2 for us to build some stats up. right now with 20 seconds of stats its pretty much impossible to diagnose anything. so if you can just repost that whole set of images in a bit after you've clocked a bit of normal use time. i'll take a look at it then and give you my suggestions. i know its kind of a pain. i had to go through this whole thing as well lols..
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznspdrmn:
This is about an hour and a half in my pocket after a full charge. It may also be relevant to mention that the phone is warm all the time now, even out of pocket

Thanks for all your help BTW
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syaoran68:
based on what you posted it looks like something to do with the NLPwakelock. which normally is caused by your GPS being on all the time. also look into greenify which can kill background apps. cause then will tend to kick your phone out of sleep. thats the first thing i would start with.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bootlessxfly:
I read some where that if you zipallign an deodexed rom you can get similar results to what odexed applications would do. So I had an thought that you could perhaps zipallign something that was odexed. I did a small amount of googling and didn't find a deffinent answer. From what I have gathered though, I would think you would technically be able to do this. All that zipallign is essentially doing is alligning the application on a 4-byte boundrey which essentially allows the application to not have to completely unpack it's self.

So, my main question is (assuming this is possible) is if you managed to zipallign a set of odexed applications(Let's say the system apps) would you even get a performance boost out of it? It seems like both odexed apps and zipalligned apps are aiming to do the same basic tasks, just in different ways. So I would imagine if there is any performance boost at all, it would be very minimal.

I was planning on odexing my system applications on my phone and living the non system applications in a deodexed zipalligned form. But if you can get a performance boost off of zipalligning odexed apps, I would be interested in trying that out also.

Feel free to correct me if Im wrong.

And thanks for any help.

Lost the unlocked/rooted X907, had to replace it with a retail version as I was traveling and needed something immediately and wanted to stick with the X907 - as opposed to getting an older one on ebay which I'm probably going to do now anyway just to have a backup. It's the 4.1.2 - 98.30.1 - as I understand it I'm stuck with it locked. I've rooted it with the SafeRoot script.

I've searched a bit and found a few leads, but was wondering if there were any others in a similar situation that make a recommendation for any 4.1.2 ROM's, and/or provide more links on the subject. It seems to me that there would be many who might have the similar misfortune for whatever circumstance. cheers -

I've got a minor voice search issue. I'm using speaktoit's assitant app, which is very helpful at times. Before I updated my ROM (insertcoin for HTC One) everything worked perfectly, but since the update, the behavior of two things are not how I like and I cant figure out how to fix them.

1. Pressing the home button and dragging up launches my assistant app. I want to disable that entirely. it already launches on home button long-press

2. When I speak, the voice search box shows that its listening to my voice, but when I stop talking, it keeps listening for a good 10 seconds before it actually passes off to the assistant. It used to be near instant, but now its as if it can no longer detect when i've stopped talking. Now I have to hit the mic button to stop it.

of course, these aren't critical, just minor, slightly annoying behaviors I'd like to iron out, and I can't find the info on google, so I'm asking the experts.

You're welcome and I doubt Google will officially have that feature for a phone. I could be wrong though.

Thanks, I downloaded the beta, it's the same as standard chrome in terms of the tab switcher.

My nexus 5 uses the card style, I want my tab 7.7 to use the card style too.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] n0xide:
So, I'm trying to understand how and why the file system acts the way it does.

Example. I have

/sdcard

and this has a bunch of stuff under it

then i have

/sdcard/0

this has some of the same stuff under it as /sdcard, but is a different file system

Why can I not just have a simple file system that I can understand! I seem to have issues with space because sometimes wiping the phone does not wipe the /sdcard/0 so I am working out of /sdcard/0 as opposed to the base of /sdcard

Any help? I am an idiot so explain like I'm 5, if possible.

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
5 year old explanation.

4.3 and above Android systems implement a multi user file setup similar to what Windows and OSx uses. The 0 folder is your account, your significant other could be 1, your dog could be 2, this keeps going depending how many users are registered to the device. It's actual intent is to use multi user on a tablet interface, not a phone, but because jellybean is used on both phones and tablets the file structure is the same.

Normally you don't have to worry about much of this, but if you came from 4.1 jellybean then multiuser wasn't implemented yet. This would double up your data in both places.

To me it sounds like you're OK, it's going to show double files because it's essentially reading the exact same folder, the format isn't going to understand what you're trying to do because it doesn't really know where to look for your data files. Basically, leave your 0 folder alone because that's where your data is supposed to be stored.

Was that 5 year old enough?

Edit: if you format your internal SD card in your recovery, then you'll erase the doubled data, and your folder structure will be repopulated under the 0 folder system. If you're running out of internal storage that's what you should do. Then clean flash the rom of your choice following the format.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] n0xide:
Yeah! That's a pretty solid explanation! I couldn't seem to find anywhere that broke it down that way.

So let me ask one more 5 year old question.

I seem to have TONS of space used up on my SD card, that I cannot free up.

I have a 16Gig GSIII, when I attach my phone to windows, I have 7gb free of 12gb. I just wiped system, cache, and dalvik, and have a clean version of Beanstalk 4.4.2.

How am I using 5gb when the OS itself is only, ~199Mb.

Is there anyway to have a completely clean install? Even when I soft bricked, and then revived w/odin and an old kernal, I don't think it was totally clean.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Yup! I just told you in my post edit, left that out by accident.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] n0xide:
Thanks again! Great answers, and just the info I need! :)

So, to format it in CWM. I would go to

Mounts and Storage

format /data

or

format /data and /data/media (/sdcard)

i assume I don't touch

format /cache or format /system

and.. last thing I promise, how do I make sure I keep a copy of gaaps and a rom on the sdcard, if I format it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
You can't keep anything on the SD card after formatting, it'll be completely wiped clean, but you should do the second option. Also you should always format system when you clean flash a rom anyway.

I'd use an external SD card to flash the rom from. Alternatively, you could sideload the rom (if you know how). I don't know how.

Since [MENTION=833788]rebel1699[/MENTION] gave AT&T users a way to expirence 4.4.2 and still maintain some control, I've loaded a few 4.4.2 ROMs. With just a cusary glance I don't see or feel much difference. I was hoping folks sharper than I would discuss this so I (and hopefully others might learn a thing or two). I do know they added a dir system/priv-app to store some apks, but don't know why? Maybe this could be answered first and get the ball rolling. Discuss.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] SkywalkerZ:
U have to look in the perspective of what google thought at that time. Google implemented system/priv-app and this had to be continued by CM and other AOSP roms or else Google has all the rights to sue them. Only apks in /system/priv-app can use "system"-level permissions.(Thats what i think and i know. I might be wrong?)And as Touchwiz is just a skin ontop of Android, Samsung and other OEMs had to go with this.
