I have the same problem from settings ->accounts ->Google it crashes. I have found a workaround in case you want to change the sync settings.

Go to settings->more->application manager and find the "Google Play Services" uninstall the updates and it will work or uninstall the update and find and install an older version of the "Google Play Services" (2 or 3 versions back).

The bad is after while it will updated again from Google to the latest version.

-Google account is crashing after google's last update, this is a google issue, just wait for an update. My solution is to use an app called "Synker" to manage and sync my accounts.

-For the weather widget crash, remove the widget, delete data and cache from weather app, weather deamon , systemUI and from your launcher and then reboot your phone.

Hello,

You've promised to make an update with language localization fix for Russian about 1,5 - 2 months ago. But I don't see any changes since that time. Will that update ever be released? Many thanks in advance.

Titanium Backup not working

I have installed the sasiskas ROM and are pleased as it seems to work smooth and stable (I started to get problems with the SVA ROM which I used before). Unfortunately, Titanium Backup is not working, so I cannot install my apps and thus cannot use the ROM.

After starting Titanium Backup, it hangs with the message "Searching application data ..." (in ROM version 1.2 with and without update to 1.3.1). I have tried different solutions found in the web, but no success. Does anybody face the same problem, and has a solution for this?

Thanks!

Neither of my sim cards are detecting. Any ideas on how to fix this?
[Galaxy S 4 General] SinoPhil:
Sasiskas ROM works great for me (Thanks a lot!!!); so far no problems.

Only two small issues:

1.Titanium Backup is stuck with searching for user data (as mentioned before by others)

2. SmartSwitch, Samsungs Program doesn't recognize the phone anymore (=doesn build up a connection; Windows itself and Linux does). Therefore i can not play in the Backup files i made before flashing the phone.

Apart from that no crashed or bugs so far - very neat!:good:

Official firmware you recommended was I9502ZNUJOC3, but can I use the latest one posted on sammobile.

I tried it, it's ok.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Bob_graton:
Some trouble

I have try to follow the instruction but somehow, I miss the part that i had to initiate a backup to create the folder and then erase the content to put the rom in...

After that I accidently replace the original bootloader with the TWRP files (i know...)

So after that everything went to worst lol

I finally got to recuperate control but my steps went like this:

1.	Receive my phone :victory: from EBay

2.	Install TWRP 2.8.1.0

3.	****ed up my bootloader:good:

4.	Went crazy trying installing every stuff I could find to regain control:eek:

5.	One day passed:crying:

6.	Install: I9502ZNUHNE4_CHUHNE4_v4.4.2_Repair_Firmware with Odin 3.12(I think)

7.	Install: TWRP-2.6.31 with Odin 3.12(I think)

8.	Install: super su 1.65 with TWRP 2.6.31

9.	Install: sasiskasRom 1.2 with TWRP 2.6.31 through backup

a.	The installation didn’t finish but I could use the phone

10.	Install: sasiskasRom 1.3.1 as an update.

11.	Install: TWRP-2.8.1.0 with Odin 3.12(I think)

12.	Install: sasiskasRom 1.2 with TWRP 2.8.1.0 through backup

a.	It worked!:laugh:

13.	Install: sasiskasRom 1.3.1 as an update.

The phone work but I got some issues:

-	I don’t have access to the first Sim card

-	The system take 4.23 gig

-	The battery drain very fast (steady -460 mA measured with the app Ampere)

-	The phone get hot pretty quickly if I use the phone probably explained with the battery drainage (29.4c to 32.0c in less than 3 minutes measured with the app Ampere)

-	I got lot of bug report

Can someone help me figure out what I can do to have this rom to work fine as you all seems be able to.

Thanks in advance for your time!

cheers!

[Galaxy S 4 General] sasiskas:
This error was fixed for me, I didn't do anything, I suppose it was fixed after a google update.

sorry, I was away from civilization and internet the last months. I am already working on the translations, but I need you to tell me in detail what you need to be translated. You can message me. Some screenshots would be nice.

I had the same issue today, It happened after updating Titanium to version 7.5, I just rolled back to version 7.3 and everything was working fine.

Does this happen only with my ROM?

does this happen only with my ROM?

You dont have to erase your initial backup and replace it with my files, just put my rom (after unraring it) next to your backup.

From what you are saying I understand that u have bootloader and modem from android 4.4 combined with my ROM... I don't even know your phone is working in the first place ��
[Galaxy S 4 General] sasiskas:
Guys I want to let you know that I'm working on ROM v2, it will be out soon, but I will not test it (because I'm bored of wiping and flashing my phone), so I can't promise anything ?

It will update Bootloader and modems to latest firmware from Sammobile, it will improve translations (in Russian language as well) , it will delete some more crap from the phone, and it will update some apps.

App is added,but it still fails to sync the contact,the contact list is not changed.Backup is also unsuccessful!
[Galaxy S 4 General] sasiskas:
do you get some kind of error? tell me the exact error you are receiving.

I have never used Samsung account, but on google account you can see/manage/download all your contacts if you login to google contacts from a browser. Try to see if you can do the same with samsung contacts and download them as an excel file or something similar. I am afraid that you don't have any contacts saved to your Samsung account in the first place, that's why there is nothing to sync.
[Galaxy S 4 General] winbeta:
yes,got some error,attached pic.I always sync the data from samsung account.(can not export the contact from samsung servers,just only sync from samsung account.)
[Galaxy S 4 General] sasiskas:
From the first screenshot I see that you don't have any issues with contacts, only with calendar and Internet which is normal because you don't have Samsung Calendar installed (I don't know what is "sync internet")

There might also be a problem with your network or with the samsung servers.

Did you try to sync using a stock firmware? if you are unable to sync with a stock firmware then it is a server or network problem.
[Galaxy S 4 General] winbeta:
the first screenshot,actually nothing happens,it is fake.These apps have been installed,netswork and samsung servers is ok.Maybe recovery the factory mode,I think so.

Hi bro. I like your rom and i didn't see anyone can optimize better 5.0.1 rom than you. So .. i have a battery problem with my phone . My battery drain so fast in this rom. But your rom is ok. I want to know i9502 has released so many rom . Do you know best stable rom for i9502? I don't like 5.0.1 version bcz i checked all of it and they have drain battery problem. So for 4.4.2 and 4.3 . I want to use older version rom for better experience. Can you suggest a stable rom for my problem. Thank you
[Galaxy S 4 General] sasiskas:
It is true, 5.0.1 on this phone is draining battery faster than 4.4.2 or 4.3. Unfortunately, I have never used any other ROM than Lollipop (I just like the way lollipop looks :P ) so I can not help you, I believe that if you use any 4.4.2 ROM you will be fine,
[Galaxy S 4 General] Parsicoola:
Thank you ;) i will use 4.4.2

Hi

I have Sony Xperia Z3 (Qualcomm 801 inside). Device has support HEVC decoding (at 1080p). MX can't use HW+ on HEVC videos. Why HW+ not working? How to fix this issue?
[MX Player] bleu8888:
HW+ does not support HEVC yet.
[MX Player] phoenix_1024:
Ok, thank you for your quick reply.
[MX Player] nighty2k7:
Sorry to wake up this old thread.

What has to be done to get the Z3 to play HEVC not by raw CPU power (laggy) but with the hardware decoding options of the Snapdragon 801?

Which OS/player/settings?

EDIT: Sorry, found the answer in antoher thread

Solution: Upgrade from Kitkat to Lollipop (I backed down to KitKat after the initial problems with Lollipop on the Z3), after the upgrade to 5.x HW support should be enabled

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
A friend has an S4 GT-I9505. It was bought second hand few months ago.

Lately it has been acting up. Shutting down randomly but now it won't turn back on. We sometimes manage to get it back on, but no always.

It isn't the battery since I have inserted my battery into the phone and it still won't turn on. It won't turn on even when connected to the charger.

We figured it might be the power button so we took it to a guy to check it out. The guy took the phone apart looked at the button and said the button is ok.

He put the phone back together and it somehow worked without problems for a few days (up until now).

He said that the phone might be shorted somewhere. The thing that led him to that conclusion is that he noticed that when inserting the battery the phone would try turn on without pressing the power button.

He also said the boot might be dead because the phone won't go into recovery nor into download mode. Even if it manages to boot into them, it will turn off almost immediately sometimes.

The phone is running 5.0.1 GPE custom rom with Googy-Max kernel. No tweaks or mods.

I know this sounds a lot like a hardware problem. The only thing that makes me have doubts is that it works occasionally without any problems.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
He looked at the power button. Honestly it's no surprise he didn't find anything wrong with the power button because the problem with the power button is inside the tiny metal casing making up the button, and it's something that can't be seen.

Get a second opinion from someone other than the guy you took this to. However, I believe this to be a power button issue, easily fixed by replacing the button.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
As I said, He took the phone appart, took the motherboard-logic board, whatever you want to call it, out and looked at it. He also took that tiny metal casing that forms the power button out, leaving a tiny white "something" exposed. I guess that's what you're talking about

But I really hope you're right and it's the power button.

Edit: We were the whole time there while he took the phone apart and looked at it. So we saw everything he did. And he didn't do anything special except take it apart and put it back together and it somehow worked for a few more days.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
I guess it really is the button. I managed to change the rom, kernel, bootloader. The phone booted up. I pressed the button once to lock the screen but nothing happened. 1 second after that the boot menu appeared. The next second the phone shut down and now it won't turn on again. Except for a brief moment to show the S4 screen and then turns off again.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace 3] maja_ldm:
I own an S7270, rooted, stock Jellybean from Sammobile.

I found it basically soft-bricked without no apparent reason.

I have a Nandroid backup form six months ago and I should have a Helium/Carbon backup somewhere (cant find it.. ).

This is the smartphone behavior:

It is either shut off or in start up loop.

It doesn't recharge the battery anymore: the charging battery screen appears, but there is no animation going on and the battery doesn't charge (I tried with an external charger and the battery can charge up that way).

It can enter download mode, if I input continue from there it proceeds to the Samsung logo and freezes there.

If I try to switch the phone on or enter recovery mode the phone loops without any screen output and gives short vibration every two seconds until the battery is drained.

What I can do (as far as I know):

Flashing a ROM from download mod.

Flashing a custom recovery from download mode and restore the Nandroid backup.

MY PROBLEM:

I can't find the most recent Helium/Carbon backups that I've done in the last few months, so I'm hoping something can be done to recover something form the phone as it is. Specifically, I'd like to recover a few WeChat and Line chat rooms (everything else I needed is on the SD card.

Can I backup the partitions from Odin?

In which partition is the data I want to recover?

If I can backup anything, can I "restore" it inside some kind of emulator on my computer?

Would it be useful to attempt to push some command from ADB?

hello,

I have a problem, been playing with lollipop lately, worked fine till I experienced my first sudden switch off and now the phone won't start until it's connected to the usb charger or the dock, once I unplug it it goes off instantly or after a few seconds and can't boot properly (it tries and switch off after a few secs...)

I tried to flash other roms and factory reset , nothing changes...

(i had an issue with the phone being drained entirely and tried to boot several times)

what is strange is that when I'm in recovery it won't stop that way.

what do you think?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smallville85:
I have the same problem!

I am running C6603, Unlocked bootloader, Twrp latest, and cyanogenmod 11 4.4.4

Does anyone know of any kind of solution to this so called " battery bug"?

Sometimes when I use nandroid app to boot into recovery, then reboot to system from twrp (while connected to charger), after adroid has booted I can then only disconnect charger and the phone will stay on for 10min or more if not used. Accessing camera app phone dies immediatly... Seems like as soon as the phone requires more power from the battery the phone dies instantly...

I also used a battery drain app after following reboot steps above and tried running the app while phone was disconnected from charger... As soon as i choose vibrate, cpu or blutooth phone restarts imediatly. While only selecting brightness option phone will stay on for 1 - 5 mins before going off.

Hopefully someone has found a solution or work around... Fingers crossed..!

---------- Post added at 10:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 PM ----------

Oh and one more thing....

While in twrp touch recovery i can use the phone while disconnected from charger.

Only when i try doing a backup in twrp (more power usage required once again) the phone dies.

Hope this helps?

Hello Everyone, Have spent 6 Days hunting for "O2 Orbit Original WM5 Rom ARTE200 1.25.206.2" with little success

I am now putting a bounty on the head of this ROM in the form of a £40 Paypal transaction. I will make instant Payment after the ROM has been verified as the genuine ROM and then make the ROM available to all though Rapidshare, and with some luck help to un-brick a lot of O2 Orbits before O2 UK WM6 is released.

Contact me on Mail@designworks-development.com

Problem caused by - Updating ROM without running USPL on a CID Locked O2 Orbit, The device is USB Bootloader contactable but requires the identical original ROM to restore "Error 244 Device ID"

Many thanks to everyone for their continued help and support.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] joey jojo:
the only way you will find this rom, is either on o2 xda website after a WM6 update and hopefully they will do this as a downgrade option after upgrade to wm6.

or

the only other way is to know someone who works for o2 uk, there repair centre will have the only copy, and the only way to maybe even get a copy, is if you are good friends with someone in that department.

currently, there is no rom, for o2 anyway, yet.

goodluck finding it though, you just never know.

Hi, I have got O2 orbit with this rom and if somebody tells me how to get it from xda into the pc I am happy to do it and share.
