[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
Hi all,

I have a major problem with my Samsung galaxy tab 4. When I power on the tab sometimes it will hang on the splashscreen.

Then if and when I get through the frozen splashscreen the screen will flicker extremely badly, almost like interference and will freeze.

I done a factory reset, disconnected the battery, still the same issue.

Any ideas what the issues are?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g_ding84:
I would find the correct firmware for your tab (from the Samsung site) and reflash the full Odin tar. If that doesn't help I'd contact Samsung about the issue.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
Is there any point in getting in touch with Samsung after opening the tablet up?

There is horizontal and vertical lines approximately 5mm apart, coloured.

I can see the logo behind these lines but and the whole system has frozen.

This still happens after a factory reset which makes me think it may be a hardware issue.

Would it be a digitizer issue?
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
That would be your display, not your digitizer. since you're thinking of opening the tab, check the connector

to the board from the display screen, just be patient, steady handed, and keep a light touch.

use a magnifying glass of you can't see the layout clearly, the connector may be seated wrong/crooked

there should/may be clips on either side that need to be slid out before disconnecting the ribbon.

I would get a replacement if you haven't opened the tab already.

questions belong in q&a. :good:

m

just a thought, check for moisture/corrosion anywhere, at the point you open the device, you're pretty

much S.O.L. but hey.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
Yes unfortunately the Tab 4 has been opened.

By disconnecting and reseating the battery sockets i believe the warranty is void. The back has been opened.

I find if i get the device running momentarily then by gently plexing "twisiting" the unit in my hands can cause the screen to switch back to normal.

But soon after the dreaded horizontal and vertical lines appear then the device becomes frozen again, the intermitent lines jump around the screen with whatever is in the background leaving the display frozen.

Only solution is to gently open up the device and disconnect the battery and then reconnect again.

This is only a temporary solution as the problem reappears very soon after.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
So you reckon it is not the digitizer that has failed? I was thinking of replacing that.

Hmmm.. :eek:
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
I'm not so sure after what you said about twisting the tab, can you get into the system through adb ?

After the tab "freezes" hook up to your comp and get adb shell running, run any/all of the following

logcat -d

mount

ps

dmesg

and do some directory hopping to see what you can access, reason being we narrow it down to display/digitizer/something loose on board.

just to refresh my memory, the same behavior occurs in recovery ?

also tap your power button to screen-off/lock.

and at the end after adb test, force reboot to recovery with button combo.

m
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
I'm unsure about your suggestions, as i don't know were to locate those commands.

I have done a factory reset, so i am just waiting for the device to charge before attempting to load new firmware through Samsung Kies which i downloaded through this link... http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/#versionInfo

are the commands you suggested within the Samsung Kies software?
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
ahh, no. You need to run adb on windows [ewww]

or adb on linux [yay!]

can't help you with windows. :p

but what about in recovery ? did you encounter the same issue or no ?

m
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
When i was having the problems initially, i could not for the life of me get into recovery mode using the button combo's. Eventually i did get into recovery, so as a last resort i cleared cache, and done a factory reset. Now it is booting up as normal but i was going to use Kies on windows to see if it is a software issue.

So were do i go about getting

adb

logcat -d

mount

ps

dmesg.

And what would you suggest as a step by step guide from were i am at now?

Note: i haven't physically messed with the device to see if the Horizontal and Vertical screen issue is still there.

Thanks

i tried running adb but i'm getting unaturiosed, clicked on the revoke debugging and then adb just ran through all the commands.

then the device screen problem has arisen again and i can't get it to boot. :eek:
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonbutt74:
You're not supposed to revoke adb debugging.

Look, i'm at a loss, the thing is, do you blow more cash on a quess, or cut your losses.

As to learning how to use adb, XDA searxh box, using adb. :eek:

Flashed the stock kernel using Odin, i hope that gets rid of the screen issue :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
Well 3 hours later and the Tab is going good :D

My daughter is delighted that it's sorted and she hopes it stays that way ;)

Many thanks to Moonbutt74 for your time and effort, it's very much appreciated.

Would you say that it's good to go? And is there anything else i need to do to the device before handing it over to her?

Cheers
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Hey hey, [MENTION=4644109]g_ding84[/MENTION] has a thought that the firmware may need to be reflashed, so do i but, kf all seems

to be function , then keep things as they are :good: magpies are people too ! :silly:

m
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
i will check g_ding84's link out.

i was aiming the Tab at two magpies flying by and decided against it, just as well eh... ;)
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
@ Moonbutt74 What firmware version was the one i downloaded last night?

What do you mean by "reflash firmware" ???
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g_ding84:
As long as your tab is good it was just a kernel issue.

That kernel version is NK2.
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skalicioustimes:
Hey..... just looking up your threads on the matter.

Excellent job....well done and thank you sir ;)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloud2F:
Hello,

so i used the search for this but could not find anything @ google or here... So since I updated to 5.0 (or higher versions) i experience a big delay in receiving messages over the internet. This does not appear when i'm in any wifi.

It's something like "disable background data" => only if i start an app it will connect and get messages / mails or whatever. When i just leave my phone somewhere (without wifi) it won't receive messages (like from whatsapp) [or only with a big delay]. Where does this come from? Background data is enable and no network restricted. And as I said, it works perfectly in WiFis.

Thanks and have a nice weekend,

Cloud2F
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
It works fine for me.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloud2F:
How often are you rebooting? I think it happens with a runtime of some days. I have the feeling that Apps are closing in the background. This happend for me on stock and custom Roms. But again strange, that on Wifi i still get messages....

Thanks for an excellent tool!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Original Android D] BBKoenigsegg:
I'm having issues with my P600, and I'm pretty sure I've tried everything I can think of, but I'm also sure there is a strong possibility that I'm making a noob mistake. I haven't rooted anything since my Galaxy S3, so I'm incredibly rusty.

Here's what I've done:

32. Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014)

01. Wifi Only Model

12. 4.4.2

1. Install Device Drivers

This was done successfully with no issues reported by the toolkit.

After this, I know I selected option 3 and I know I installed TWRP 2.8.3.0 and SuperSU 2.45. When I first installed it, I got all successful messages, and I made sure to follow the directions precisely (always read first and then execute). Now my end game here is to install Lollipop on this puppy, which I really cannot wait for. I have three huge issues preventing me from doing that. First, when I launch SuperSU is says something about it cannot find the binary and it cannot install itself (I will update this with the exact message when I get home). The next problem is I attempted to fix that by reinstalling using the toolkit, and whenever my tablet restarts it hits that "android man laying on his back". Then, the third issue is my tablet keeps coming to a message screen saying something along the lines of "installing a custom rom is dangerous and can affect the installed applications" (again, I will update this with the exact message when I get home tonight).

Can anyone suggest a course of action to fix these issues? Even if it involves starting from scratch, I don't mind at all. I just want to be able to install Lollipop already, and I really do not know what I did wrong.

Thanks in advanced, XDA.

Which root option did you use to root the device? Using the push method is the simplest.

If the device is booting in the the Stock Recovery screen (Android man on his back) then it looks like the stock recovery restore files are present on your device. In this case choose options 7,3 from the main menu and follow the instructions to stop the stock recovery being restored after a reboot.

Update

I have updated the module files (that are downloaded after the Note 10.1 2014 is selected at startup) to fix several config settings, update some Toolkit functions and update TWRP for all variants to 2.8.5.0. The unroot zip file has also been fixed/updated.

Supported models/builds list: http://www.skipsoft.net/?page_id=1203

Download from: http://www.skipsoft.net/?page_id=1069 if you don't already have the Toolkit

If you have already downloaded the new Toolkit and have the v1 module for the Note 10.1 2014 then delete the ConfigGalaxyNote101_2014.exe and the _currentrecoveryversionGalaxyNote101_2014.ini from the tools folder and the Unroot-UninstallBusybox-CwmManager.zip from the root folder. Download the new unroot zip file from http://skipsoft.net/download/fileupd...CwmManager.zip and move it to the root folder, start the Toolkit and select the Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 from the list. The Toolkit will then download new module files.

I will also push an AutoUpdate with the same updates/fixes for Pro users to automate the whole above procedure.

Note: Can someone let me know if the openrecoverscript method via twrp works with twrp 2.8.5.0. I know 2.8 has problems with adb and the openrecovery script method is heavily reliant on this. If it does not work I can revert the recovery back to 2.7.1.1 which has no problems with adb.

Mark.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smolway:
Hello,

I cant find a answer to my problem. I have been searching and trying to fix it for days. So I got 2 HP TouchPads as a gift. I was able to install CM11 with toolbox on one HP. No issues at all with that one. Then I installed CM11 with toolbox on second one. The only issue I have is the WiFi will not turn on. When the ROM starts I hit English and then it will go to the WiFi screen. At that screen it will say "WiFi turning on". It will stay like that forever and never change. When I decide to skip the setup and turn the WiFi on with the toggle switch it does nothing. The switch will not move. I have tried CM11, Pacman kikat 4.4.4 and Evervolv 5.0.0. WiFi will not turn on will any ROM. When I go back to Webos with toolbox WiFi will work every time. Does any one know how to fix this?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smolway:
ok so since no one knows that answer. Is it possible to take a backup from the good touchpad and restore it on the bad touchpad. Does anyone think that will work? If it is possible how would I go about doing that. I'm using toolbox and cwm recovery.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TrobbL:
Just to eliminate CM configuration as an issue, have you tried using the WIFI in WebOS? I've had problems with my corp WIFI on my Touchpad on and off for a long time. Trying a different OS might eliminate or suggest a hardware related probem.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smolway:
wifi will work just fine in webos.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] McZadek44:
Hello everybody, and happy new year! (kinda late :))

My question is, that which phone is better. What do you think about these phones and do you have some experience with these phones??

There are a lot phones at the price around 230$, but these are one of the best ones for that price. (I think)

I prefer Galaxy S3 Neo, because of its functions and because is not that big as ZenFone 5, and because of its Android. ZenUI is not that bad on ASUS, but there is almost everything new :D and you need accustom to it. What I "hate" on the ASUS is design of the phone, but it doesn't matter. On hardware I think ASUS is better, but in camera not, it doesn't have that nice quality pictures and on S3 Neo look better. I will be happy If you post some about these phones what do you think is better and if you have some experience with it, if it is lagging or something like that. Just If you're happy with that phone (if you own it). I don't understand a lot a technology and I'm not expert :D, sorry for my english and hope you will post something. Thank to everybody.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Laurisss:
Zenfone has 2 cores at 1.6Ghz and the S3 neo has 4 cores at 1.2/1.4Ghz. I dont know about cpu cores in mobile devices so i cant tell if those +2 cores are something wow.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] McZadek44:
ZenFone 5

Yes, it is true, but everybody says that its "behaving" as quad core 1,6 GHz... (btw. S3 Neo in my country has 1,4 GHZ CPU)
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Laurisss:
Well antutu says its 22k and the s3 neo is about 20k points. So probably take the zenfone 5 because of the bigger screen but i dont know if it matches the s3 neo in multitasking and general speed. Is it like "Zenfone 5 has an intel cpu with 2 that matches an amd cpu with 4 cores"?
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rox:
I would always prefer to take qcom device because there is huge support from codeaurora and google ....

Also 1.4 x 4 ghz > 1.6 x 2 ghz , AMOLED > IPS ...
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] McZadek44:
Well, I'm mostly listening to music, sometimes play games (games like Clash of Clans and more...) and browse YT or internet, so I don't think that I need some great multitasking. BTW. I have heard. that ZenFone 5's battery at Android KitKat is really draining... ASUS's Intel CPU is not acting like dual-core, there are some enhanced functions, so it's like quad-core. Also, ZenFone gets Lollipop on April, but i don't think that I need it too much :D. If you look at GSMArena, people are really happy with S3 Neo, but ZenFone, everybody talking about bad battery, and camera... - So, may I choose S3 Neo? :confused:

You can post some other phones for that price, for example some other brands, S3 Neo and ZenFone 5 are the most liked for that price in my country.

I'm not using my phone for games, I need some great phone, which has good battery life, big RAM (because I have a lot of apps on the background) and camera too.... it will be good, if it has some new Android (Lollipop).

Hi all, I'm back with another proplem!

Around a month ago I was running AICP and KMA Kernel and just randomly one day I couldn't connect to any WiFi networks at all, I've tried a whole combination of ROMs and Kernels and the only thing that seems to work is having a ROM with the kernel it comes with, Meow, KMA, Hodor are the Kernels I've tried so far on various different ROMs but none work at all, it just says "error connecting" or something similar, I can't connect to WiFi networks on ANY Lollipop ROMs either!
