[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cptANGRIST:
i had nearly same problem. ( my issue was boot screen kept coming back without opening the phone.. my power button was stuck..)

i solved my problem by hitting power button to a hard surface for a day or two..

then it happened again..

i solved my problem with a pressured liquid used for cleaning electronic cards " contact cleaner"

while applying this be generous. (do not sprey into camera it will find a way in).

make your phone 90 degrees and spary contact cleaner into your power button..

( mine got cleaned and now i use it for 3 months without any problems.)

also after all contact cleaner dries away. ( contact cleaner smells weird you dont want to smell it be precautious . and also your phone will smell for 4 5weeks more .. i used some drops of cologne on my board to reduce smell of cleaner )

refer to videos while opening your phone. you can find good resources ..
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
That's actually sound advice, though just to play it safe I would disassemble the S4 and remove the motherboard. The contact cleaner could damage the screen, the polycarbonate, or both.

Details of Nokia Lumia 730

You have a nice choice with Lumia 730, it runs on Windows 8.1 OS and 1.2GHz quad-core processor. It is handy with 4.7 inch ﻿OLED capacity touchscreen display, ﻿Corning Gorilla Glass 3 for protecting the screen and the clear black display. It has 8 GB internal memory with expandable microSD card up to 128 GB and 1 GB RAM. It offers 6.7 MP rear camera with LED flash and 5 MP front camera to capture the beautiful pictures. The battery capacity is also good 2200 mAh for long time talking. The connectivity options are Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and USB. The current price is approx Rs 13,000.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cäsar:
Do you have any requirements? What is important to you in a phone?

For instance, Lumias usually feature great recording hardware (cameras, microphone). You'll get quite better images with a Lumia 830 than e.g. with an iPhone 6, which is way more expensive. Also, they're quite robust IMO: Lumias usually take more hits and drop until they have their display or case broken, compared to most other brands.

Furthermore, WP is easy to use, still works great on mid- and low-end hardware and just looks good.

One argument against WP is the bad support by certain companies: If you know an app on Android you definitely need, check whether it exists for WP too, or if there's an alternative.

I'm living in the middle east right now so my music download options are limited.... I've recently discovered that 7Digital will actually accept my payments, which is great.... But it stores the files deep in my SD card folder system & the HTC music app doesn't pick them up... Any recommendations on how to direct the music app to the MP3s without having to move the files and create new folders every time I download new music...

[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] JssCheonGz:
Hi,

As mentioned above, there is a problem with my A5. When my tempered glass screen protector is fixed and when my phone is charging, my touch screen seemed to go haywire. I am holding my finger in one place but the phone detected that my finger is shaking, wildly. Besides shaking, my phone will stop sensing my finger even though it is held there.

I doubt it is the problem with my hardware because I have already changed the touch screen, charging port and the motherboard by sending it to the Samsung Service Centre. I believe the problem is due to the tempered glass (my previous tempered glass) because it was put onto another A5 and the same problem occured. Now, I have purchased another tempered glass from REMAX (picture below), and it seemed to cause the same problem again.

So now my questions are

1. Can I seek for another alternative such as Spigen's tempered glass screen protector or should I just use the normal screen protector?

2. Am I the only one facing this problem?

3. Is the problem really due to the tempered glass?

Oh by the way, my phone is running on official rom version 4.4.4.

[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] darkspr1te:
Without getting into too much tech details i have a list of possible cause's

1. with having a additional screen cover in place and power connected your body+screenprotector create a capacitor, this is exactly how the screen registers touch , so without the screen protector in place this wont happen. I've seen this on a few Screen protectors that use certain types of conductive glue/bonding agent.

2. faulty charger or fake chargers often cause this behavior, try another charger or use USB on a laptop not plugged into mains power, if the problem is gone then plug in laptop's main power, if problem still gone then your issue is charger, if problem starts when pluging in the laptop's power then it's either ground loop or your screen protector acting as above.

3. faulty assembly when fitting screen, they didnty apply the copper back shield or the protective cloth that act's as a shield around the ribbon cables

before anyone shouts that samsung fixed it, I know and i can quote many a occasion a cell phone was not fixed right first time by the OEM

if you activate developers options and switch on show touches then repeat the test , does the display always show certain areas that register touch , if so it can also show where the bonding agent has a airgap, this adds to the capacitor effect.

finally try wearing shoes when touching the screen, if wearing shoes stops the problem get your house wiring checked.

[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] saxmydix:
gua rasa pasal charger lu tu bro. try tukar charger atau cable lain.
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] JssCheonGz:
thanks saxmydix, i used multiple chargers and it is still the same, i tried charging in another house in another area, still the same problem occured, so i doubt it is the problem with my charger.

thank you for your time and i appreaciate it a lot :)
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] JssCheonGz:
hi darkspr1te,

thanks for ur response.

1. so it is entirely dependent on how the screen priotector/tempered glass is sticked to the screen?

2. sorry for not including the details on my charger in my post. i am currently using an official charger that i got when i purchased my previous samsung phone(S2 gt-i9100g). i tried using the A5 charger and the problem persists. will using a powerbank recreate the scenario of the unplugged laptop charging? if it is the same, the problem is still there even when my powerbank is unplugged. i do not have a laptop at home and it wouldnt be possible for me to get my hands on a laptop that i can use these few days. i tried charging my phone in another house (in another region which is like 20 kilometers away) and it is still the same. and my brother's samsung galaxy alpha do not have this problem while charging.

3. so u are saying that the problem might be due to oem? once again i apologize for not including this in the post. while i am at the samsung shop, the person in charge tried putting the tempered glass (which was fixed to my phone) onto another A5 which was there due to a boot loop problem, and it started to have the same problem. is it possible that all Samsung A5's assembly do not have the copper back shield or the protective cloth?

apparently nobody in the samsung shop knows how to deal with my problem because they have never seen it before. it took me quite some time to explain to each person who attempted to serve me and i only managed to show the problem to one of the personnel (which was the one who helped me fix my phone). i went back to the samsung shop 3 times in 2 days. in the 1st time, he changed the touch screen, in the second time, he changed the charging port and in the third time, he changed the motherboard.

as for the test, i turned on the pointer location and i keyed in *#7353#, and i selected TSP grid mode. that is how i checked the problem. and while i was there, the shaking only occurs at where my fingers are. i tried enabling the show touches option and the display do not register touches until i touched them.

i doubt it the the problem with my house wiring since it is the same with my other house but thanks for the suggestion. i will definitely try wearing shoes when i am at a different house. maybe both my house got wiring problem.

i learnt a lot from your post. thanks for your time and i hope to hear from u soon
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] darkspr1te:
It wont be 100% of the cause but will affect performance of the screen.

Yes, using a non-mains connected charger will be sufficient for the test, like your power bank for example

Yes,

Galaxy Alpha Images

Note on images 4 and 5 you will see the copper shield, this model does not have the conductive cloth I mentioned but the copper ground plane can clearly be seen on both the body and screen. Fake and non oem parts tend not to have this, in the body there is also a copper area which can be removed by mistake on replacement of the screen.

this is not often found in the replacement screen kit.

if it's happening at another location then you can discount this theory.

I am still leaning towards incorrect parts or assembly as this is the cause I personally see most often and i've repaired a LOT of damaged phones. As you have stated you have more or less a complete new phone if they replaced screen+motherboard.

I once repaired a phone that had been back to the OEM service center, cause of fault was copper strip from old screen touching the board, the copper slip was so small i only noticed it when it sparkled under the right light, it's mistakes like that is what I am talking about, easily missed by many.

[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] darkspr1te:
Sadly that can only be done by removing the screen. I dont suggest you try, ive seen the disassembly video, it's tough, one time job and if it goes wrong it's bye bye screen.

darkspr1te
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] JssCheonGz:
I sent in my phone to the samsung store to check the charging port (which is also making some problems), and i requested them to check the copper shield.

while i was there, i realised there is another phone which has the same problem as me. could it be that all the A5 model has the same problem ? :/
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] darkspr1te:
I don't think it's the phone model, we would see more reports if it was, I would enquire if the other unit also had screen changed. If it has then one might assume pirate parts, no way to prove that without checking back of lcd for the oem barcode sticker. The is on possibility I only just thought of, a while back I had a client bring me a i9505 that the oem changed screen on, I just reread the emails between us and the fix was replacing the screen with a i9505 screen, the oem locally only supplies i9500 devices so they only fitted a i9500 screen, turns out there is a difference in the touch chip, I was able to prove this by attaching the touch only circuit from his old screen. No more random touches.

From this I can assume the various SM-A500 models use different touch chips. Or slightly different firmware in the chip, I have seen that before on the rock chip based tablets I support here.

Darkspr1te
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] JssCheonGz:
this is getting a little too complex for me to understand, let alone explaining it to the samsung guy. are u trying to say touchscreens from different variants of A5, such as SM-A500G is being fitted into my SM-A500F?
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] darkspr1te:
Yes, that's exactly what I am saying. Although it's only a theory based on prior solutions, I dont have any proof to hand other than my experience.

Wormbloo - The Virtual Pet​

I've wanted to make a virtual pet game ever since I was a kid, and now I've finally gotten around to it. There's loads of other virtual pet games out there, but what I think makes mine special is that unlike the other apps, where the pet just sits there in the middle of the screen, Wormbloo actually moves around and seems to have a life of it's own. You can earn coins in fun mini-games to buy interesting food, drinks, accessories and special items, and there's no annoying in-app purchasing to worry about.

This is the first release, so there isn't too much content yet, but I will be constantly adding more items and mini-games. I would love to hear what people think :)

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wafna:
A few days ago, I upgraded from KK to Lollipop (CM 12 nightly) and suddenly MMS sending stopped working, I could neither send or receive (on T-Mobile).

I checked and reentered my APNs a few times. The phone would sometimes switch from an LTE connection to no service when sending the MMS. I also saw that some people had been asking about this in a few forums, with no real answer, basically "check your APN".

Eventually I noticed that MMS were being sent properly when on a wifi connection.

Here's how I fixed my MMS: I used to have - as per operator instructions - one APN for "internet" and one APN for "mms". The internet APN had as APN type "default,supl" and the mms APN had "mms".

What was going on was that, while the phone was connecting properly to the internet APN, the connection to the mms APN was just not happening. No idea why.

Solution:

1) I changed the APN type of the internet APN from "default,supl" to "default,supl,mms"

2) copied down the values of the MMSC, MMS proxy and MMS port from the MMS APN

3) deleted the MMS APN

4) entered those three values into the "internet" APN, keeping the rest as it was

5) rebooted

and everything works, as the phone is connecting to the MMS server through the internet APN. Bear in mind again that this is not what the operator's "technical support" told me to do, they were set on having me use two different APNs (and that wouldn't work at all).

Hope it works for other people too :)
