[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kosaidpo:
heyy guys

im using minimalOs as a rom , no modification everything is stock but keep getting lags and the phone does not respond at all the only way to go is a long press on the power button to reboot

i've been experiencing the same issue with many lollipop roms even the factory one

am i the only ?? is there any solution or hint to shed some light

ps: tried many good kernels in the past but still have the same issue

thanks in advance﻿
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
No issue here with good roms/kernels. Maybe your hardware is slowly dying...

Having lags is comprehensible in some situations but the phone should always respond. The only situation where my device is not responding is during app updates from Google Play and this only occurs with specific roms.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kosaidpo:
thanks for the reply? , i kinda think the same , ill try factory reset , format the internel storage and see
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
At first try the smoothness of your device before restoring all your user data and apps ;) Some apps can reduce the whole performance.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kosaidpo:
its smooth even i've many apps installed but time time its lags and have to reboot

I have an ATT ZenFone 2E that I rooted successfully with this guide (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3116531). Due to an error on my part(fat finger) I accidentally started the OTA update. Now when I try to boot the phone all I get is the AT&T logo/splash screen. I can get it to go into recovery mode and it also will connect via ADB. I have tried flashing the UL-ASUS_Z00D-WW-12.16.5.30-user.zip firmware via ADB fastboot but I get an error saying firmware is wrong carrier ATT (WW). Am I using the wrong firmware for AT&T? I have searched all over and cannot find any ZenFone 2 firmware other than WW, TW, and CN. Any help or suggestions much appreciated.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lactaid:
i have the exact problem since saturday, you have to use the ATT firmware but i couldnt find it anywhere
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lactaid:
also

please pm me if u fixed yours
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JRSouth:
Still no luck. I'm sure if we could find the AT&T firmware we would be able to recover. Unfortunately it appears it is not available on ASUS support and AT&T doesn't even provide firmware. Our only hope may be from a backup of another device that isn't bricked.

Does anybody know if we could possibly use the temporary CWM recovery used in the root method to flash to another ROM that is compatible with this device? Any input would be greatly appreciated.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JRSouth:
Are there any details I can provide that would be helpful in finding a solution to recover this device? I've seen a few other people are having the same issue as I am and I would like to help them as well if I can get mine fixed. Thanks
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lactaid:
ive literally tried everything, my device has been bricked for like 3 weeks now
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JRSouth:
Just out of curiosity have you tried running the xoa_unroot.bat while your device is in recovery/fastboot mode? Im not sure if it will help but I've found in other threads that to avoid soft bricking your device you must run the unroot prior to applying the OTA update. I'm sure it's probably too late but maybe worth a shot. I'm going to try it when I get home from work today.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lactaid:

ATT ZE500CL/Z00D rom
[Android General] Steph_D:
Hi,

So my screen broke yesterday and I needed to check my phone for missed important calls. I know there is lots of solutions out there, but I needed a way access your screen without the installation of any software on your phone. I was lucky because my digitizer still works so I can still use the touch feature and figure out on my screen where to press . I figured i would post it, might save someone someday....

Note: Works on Android 4.0 +

You need to have have developper options enabled so this can work. So first of all, I need to enable ADB from recovery. There is lots of post on the forum and google, so I will not cover this part.

Once I had ADB enabled, I wrote a small batch file that would take a screenshot from my phone, then pull it to my pc, wait 1 sec, then restart. After I used chrome and a auto-refresh extension to refresh the image every second. I will assume that you have ADB installed and all drivers for adb working. Here it goes

1. You will need to create a batch file. Open notepad and paste this into it.

:start
adb shell screencap -p /sdcard/screen.png
adb pull /sdcard/screen.png
timeout 1
goto start

Save it as ss.txt, or whatever you like. Then go to desktop and rename ss.bat or "whatever you like.bat"

This may vary a bit if you do not have an SDcard, or if your directory is not named the same way, So change SDcard to the name of your storage folder.

Copy it to your adb directory.

2. Open a Command Prompt as Admin change directories to ADB folder. Once you are there, just type ss and the batch should start.

3. Open chrome and install an auto-refresh extension. I used this one:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/easy-auto-refresh/aabcgdmkeabbnleenpncegpcngjpnjkc?hl=en

4.Then open your c:\ drive in chrome (type in the address bar file:///C: ). Navigate to your adb folder and open screen.png.

5. Start auto refresh on screen.png opened in chrome and set to 1 second.

Now you will have a screenshot of your phone being refreshed every second! I agree its slow, but its an easy way to get on your phone and configure other applications such as vnc or other stuff or just to get the phone number of that hot date you had last night.

Other thoughts: I your digitizer is broken, you can always just get a USB on the go adapter and plug-in a mouse and use ADB over wifi.

I guess you can also use an usb micro to hdmi adapter and plug it in to a monitor, they have them at bestbuy for 20$ if you dont want to make your life complicated.

Have Fun!
[Android General] kirito9:
Need busybox do you not? screencap is not in my /system/xbin nor /system/bin folder :confused:
[Android General] Steph_D:
What phone and what rom are you using? What I read is that some vendors do not include screencap in their stock rom. ..
[Android General] kirito9:
Using Blu Dash Jr D140a, stock ROM ( Gingerbread 2.3.6)
[Android General] Steph_D:
Should of mentionned, dosen't work with gingerbread, you need 4.0+ if i recall correctly. Maybe, if your lucky, the manufacturer may have included their version instead of screencap since it did not exist back, i would take a look in the bin folder to try to find an equivalent if not you are out of luck with this method.
[Android General] kirito9:
OP should be updated then ;) and here's my bin folder.
[Android General] Steph_D:
Ya, I don't believe it will be possible for you using this method. :/ Sorry Will update original post...

No problem, I will try on my 4.2.2 device.

Yes it was, was discussing with the mods if I should take over the old thread or create a new one, so I deleted that one until I had clear instructions, which I just got ;)

So here we are :D

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Yank555:
Yup, unless there is no need to anymore ;)

There's been less and less op top of Slim in them, it's layers and a few goodies mostly from gerrit.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dankoman:
...nothing like having to manually reply from a closed thread lmao (thanks [MENTION=990284]TonyStark[/MENTION] ;) )

anyway, yeah we probably will support Pixel C eventually, but we have to wait to see what source looks like. also, we'd require a device maintainer - someone who actually owns the device and is willing to maintain the device trees.

But given Europe tends to come late, I'll consider myself lucky to have one by xmas lol

Hey, in addition to the BT HFP problem I've described in the old thread I also noticed that changing the BT volume isn't always possible. Most of the times the correct slider just wouldn't show up when pressing the volume rocker and if it does, it doesn't change anything.

This has been the case with my clean 0.7 flash and the dirty 0.8 flash I did today. I've posted the information about my radio in the old thread, if that helps.

Thank you for your great work!

I think Blitzer.de sends simple media files over HFP if that helps. My car picks up an unknown call and outputs the audio over the speakers. When I get a real call, the volume is correct somehow.

Is there any documented reason why stock slim has no global menu customizations?

Edit: Without it I've had difficulty taking screenshots of the quick toggle and notifications panes.

I usually do that using volume down + power button.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NHNXDA:
I'm happy to try & provide some data to assist, but for sure I do a wipe system, dalvik, cache each time, but still got the lag & power button issue, roll back & its gone.

Only thing I can do I guess is do a full wipe of everything, install stock rom, then install 0.9 again as a 100% clean, then test, take a while as I need to save data 1st.

Something is different between 0.7 & 0.9, I'm not that tech savvy on these things to know sorry lol.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dokie80:
Will logcat app save log before the freeze and unresponsive power button?

Assuming user have to force reboot
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] teemo:
Catlog has a recorder. You can setup the number of lines it reads before it writes to sdcard. It will stay after a panic boot :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Yank555:
Well if it's not too much trouble, a full factory images flash certainly would rule out everthing else.

But I really don't see what would have changed for this to happen on a few devices only tbh :(

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] NHNXDA:
I'll do asap :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] TJKV:
Best is to use the Android Terminal Emulator app and run the command mentioned above. Or even "logcat -v long > /sdcard/log.txt".

That outputs it with the time for each message, so it's easier to pinpoint what happened when. You'll probably have to run "su" first, and then logcat.

That writes each line immediately as it comes in, so all written lines stay even after a reboot/crash/whatever.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dokie80:
[MENTION=2033478]Yank555[/MENTION], I just send an email with logcat. Just got freeze and crash, auto reboot. Don't know if it's the same problem or not though. I was installing app from play store, and it become unresponsive.

My N5 doesn't stop charging with qi when the battery is full. I charge the phone every night and the phone is still charging and warm in the morning and that can't be good for the battery.

Is that a kernel, rom or hardware problem? My old N4 works well with my charging plate, so that can't be the problem.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] paradoxiumwind:
has anyone been able to get franco kernel working with this? I can get elementalx but franco lets me increase mic volume :(
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pkelly517:
Franco changed something in the ramdisk. I believe [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] got anykernel support working, but I'm not sure. Once Franco no longer worked, I went a different route.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Phazmos:
Uber with Franco sound - always worked great with slim.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] osm0sis:
Franco's ramdisk is always just stock with a couple modifications for Performance Profiles and his defaults, so he didn't change anything, it just stopped working as custom ROMs added more non-stock things back in that require ramdisk support.

AnyKernel2 works great all across the board though, even on Marshmallow, so check it out. r76 is the current build with fixed Chrome freeze, etc. over r75. :good: :D

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] pkelly517:
I stand corrected.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Yank555:
Got the emails, but no time to look into yet, will try, but busy til the WE.

Well it should stop charging, although the charging led stays on I believe.

What I've noticed is that the device tends to heat up when it's not 'well positioned' on the charger (shamu is even way more sensitive in that regard).

Stock kernel should be able to the same, but using faux sound.

Well, in the end enabling swap didn't make a difference with the freezes. Actually made the worse, for me, when the phone hangs I have to reboot as it won't come back to life. Overall the phone behaves better, though, so I don't think disabling swap is a good idea in the end.

Anyway, like I said sometimes ago, generally I have to reboot the phone every 10/11 hrs or so. A few times, though, I managed to prevent the freeze by cleaning recent apps as soon as the phone begun to stutter... Once, when the phone begun to stutter, I manage to open the emulator and run 'free' and saw that swap was full. After I cleaned the recents, it was free (wellanthat's normal I guess) and the phone was back to life. don't know if this experience could help.

Goodnight to you all :)
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dokie80:
[MENTION=2033478]Yank555[/MENTION], no rush. I sent 2 emails though, 2 freezes yesterday. If you need more data, please let me know.

Yesterday I've also experienced a freeze for the first time. When opening Opera (I guess it was sleeping with PowerNap/Greenify before) the screen didn't respond at all, I swiped around, spammed and power button a couple of times, and after about 10 seconds it came back with "Opera isn't responding, wait/close?".

Not a big deal for me though, I guess it's worse for other users in this thread :)

As for my BT HFP issue: I will flash Cataclysm stable on the weekend to see whether it's a generic or a ROM-related issue.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Yank555:
Would be interesting to know indeed.

Been pretty busy these days with real life, tonight was my first night 'off' in days, so I spent it with starting to work on Slim6 for HH and shamu ... kernels done (easiest), vendor repos at AOSP level, so stuff still missing (thank you Google for not releasing proper binaries...), device still to do (hardest), so still a lot before getting to even build the ROM for the first time.

Hope I'll find some time this WE, but it's not easy this time of the year work-wise on my end ...

[MENTION=2033478]Yank555[/MENTION], I email again with logcat and screenshot. Confirmed that swap is used 100% I wait until the phone gives response.

After I close some apps via recent apps panel, phone is usable and no more lag.

Thanks

Ps. I changed to interactive/noop and enable touch boost before this happened. Going to change back to default knowing it does nothing to solve this issue.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lightingcloud:
Its nice that we can manage the problem, but if I don't reboot the time between freezes goes down... if i reboot, it takes about 12 hours for the first freeze. Of I manage to clean recent and free some swap, it's 4 hours or so 'till the next freeze, then 2 hrs, and so on... in the end I have to reboot anyway.
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] dokie80:
It's random for me. Probably faster if I open apps like wps office. I M going to try to frequently check and clearing recent apps see if it helps.

But this morning, the phone instantly lagless when I start closing apps.

Anyway to increase swap? To see if it helps [emoji14]
[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] Yank555:
When you run into this, can you check the system ram usage under running apps in settings and compare it to how much it was right after you booted ?

Note: This is my shamu.

[Nexus 5 Original Android Development] lightingcloud:
I'll try, let's hope it doesn't freeze completely before I can reach the menu. Now it's 488 MB a few minutes after boot.

Edit: sigh, another hang this morning, totally unexpected so I didn't manage to check ram usage. I was using Chrome and actually 7 hangs out of 10 happen when I'm using chrome, or right after. So I'm uninstalling and switching to stock browser (would be nice if it synchronized favourites at least, though) to see if things get better.

Oh and by the way, I get error net::ERR_ACCESS_DENIED when setting homepage to most visited in stock browser.

Currently free swap is almost zero. Ram usage for system is 600mb.
