A few days ago my N1 received the update to froyo . A difference from the android 2.1 update 1 is that from task manager ( installed from market) I can't kill anymore the sipdroid process as I was doing before update. Now it is restarting automaticaly after a second. I want to kill the sipdroid process because I do not need all the time the VoIP client and if is alive all the time it is checking all the time the conection with the server and is consuming batteries .Before the update the sipdroid was restarted automatically by dialing a + ended number
Yep, that's new in Froyo - you can't seem to kill network-aware services. This caused my to uninstall Y5 (which I love) because I couldn't force WiFi off when I needed to do so.
Froyo does have it's own very limited daemon-killer, though:
Go into Settings -> Applications -> Running services and you can sometimes kill the unkillable.
tried to do so but sipdroid is still restarting.

Yeah, I had that same problem with Y5. You might just have to wait until the sipdroid app is updated to work properly with FroYo.
I had the same problem. Its anoying! Fring sometimes does the same too and disconnects me from my desktop MSN.
Ahh - this might be why all the task managers have been failing me?
just go to the menu in sip droid or fring and choose exit, it won't try to restart, or use the ' running' tab under manage applications and force stop from there
I don't really know the problem. When I don't want sipdroid, I just turn it off. Never had to use a task manager for it.
before froyo even the sipdroid was killed if I dial a "+" ended number was restarted . If I close sipdroid by exit menu this calling is not working anymore. I have to understand more about the process management in froyo.

I have couple of programs (Messaging and Comm Manager) affected by this. I use the Messaging app to check my ISP email. It connects via HSDPA and downloads the messages correctly. I then close Messaging by tapping and holding the X button (according to my setting in Task Manager). I check in Task Manager and the Messaging app is not displayed as running. I also close the HSDPA connection and Comm Manager and again check in Task Manager that Comm Manager is not running.
Some time I check in Running Programs under Settings/Memory and find that Messaging and Comm Manager are running. I stop apps from Running Programs. Any ideas why this happens, and anyone else experiencing this issue? This occurs both if the Task Manager setting for closing apps is set to 'Tap' and 'Tap and Hold'.
You do want the messaging app to be running all the time... so it can receive texts emails etc in the background.

Thanks. That makes sense. I posted a related message in another thread about my HSDPA connection being opened when nothing is running. From your reply I see that this happens because the messaging app is always running even if not displayed as a running app. That is why Task Manager never lists it.
Does this apply also to the Comm Manager?
Even if Messaging doesn't show all the time, it's there running. It'll only hit the task manager if you've opened it manually, then minimized it. Even if it's not visible, you'll still be checking your e-mail.
Comm Manager is a different beast. It's not required to manage communications, it's provided so that you can quickly manage what's on and off for communicaitons.
Has anyone seen this?

I have searched and tried all of the solutions, but I can't seem to get Google Voice to synchronize anymore.
Anyone have more info?
Anyone? (bump)
I'm having the same issue and no luck yet in figuring it out
I hoped that the 0.25 release yesterday would fix it, but it did not.

Yes, I have tried that before I posted the first post.
I had to downgrade
After installing cm4.2.1, I had to downgrade my Google Voice. The current one isn't working. But I am far too much of a noob to know why...
Cyanogen 4.22 fixed this issue.
anyone have issues wit stayin connected to gvoice?
i always have to sign out and sign bacc in when i exit out the program.. it stay open but when i try to send a message i get "failure to send sms" so i have to sign out and re due it everytime.. them all my text come in.. any solutions? i already did the caller id thing still nothin and updated to the new gvoice from market and it made it even more worse.. thanks!
im running cyan4.2.2 and GV works... however i havent had any "new" voicemails to try out. I guess I could do it myself haha.
Anyway, it wasnt working - the syncing - and then i uninstalled and reinstalled GV and it worked again.
I do have a problem where new voicemails would never show up even if i had refresh on for 5 mins and an exclusion on it in Advanced Task Manager. Again, havent checked this out yet on the new version of Cyan and GV .25
I have VOIP phone service at my office through 8x8 (formerly Packet8) and they offer an app called "Virtual Office." Basically it lets you use WiFi (or 3g if you wish) to turn your cel phone into another VOIP phone extension. So you can call out and it will look like you're calling from your VOIP number, you can access your VOIP extensions and voice mail, etc.
Sounded good, so I installed it back in May. I recall it working, but the app was always trying to make me pick VOIP or AT&T for every call, so I uninstalled. I think I was running Cog 4.2 or so back then.
I'm now running Cognition 5 v.2 on my Cappy, and decided to re-install the app as I was having problems with my office phone wiring, and I can't get the app to work now. It asks for my 8x8 "username" and "password" and then has a "login" button. If I put in the wrong info it will attempt to connect and return an error message "incorrect username/password" If I put in the right info it pops up a "connecting" dialog that just endlessly tries to connect.
I've re-installed the original app from TiBu, uninstalled and re-installed from the market, and still have this problem.
When I called 8x8 support, they said that they know the app just doesn't work on some phones, but they don't have a list of phones to tell me if my i897 is one of them
So is anyone else on XDA an 8x8 subscriber that has been able to use this app?
If so can you tell me what ROM you're using and how you got the app running?
TIA
So I take this LONG silence as a NO I guess
So I've had a friend's old Droid for a few months, and it's worked alright for the most part, but the other day it just decided to completely screw up.
As soon as I boot up these guys force close:
Amazon mp3 (multiple times)
google services framework
messaging
bluetooth share
gmail
google.process.
calendar storage
Other symptoms:
- I can make and receive calls, but neither I nor the other person can hear anything.
- I can't receive texts. Handscent lets me see the list of conversations, but if I try to view one it force closes. The stock messaging app instantly force closes.
- The phone won't recognize the SD card
- Trying to see the call log results in a force close for android.process.acore
- On the stock power management widget, the GPS button and the screen brightness button don't do anything. They highlight the borders like they're being pressed but the icon doesn't change... the rest of the buttons seem to work fine.
- I can change the screen brightness using the Quick Setting app, but as soon as I go to the home screen it goes back to full brightness.
- If I turn on wi-fi, it immediately turns back off again.
I've tried clearing the data and caches for Calendar, Calendar Storage, Contacts, Contacts storage, Gmail, and Google Services Framework multiple times, but it all seems to get reset upon rebooting, even if I turn off the auto-sync before I reboot, which also gets reset to on upon rebooting.
Android version 2.2.3
Baseband version C_01.43.01P
Kernel version
2.6.32.9-g68eeef5
[email protected] #1
Build number FRK76
Not rooted. I wouldn't mind starting over or maybe rooting, if only to get rid of the bloatware and get wireless tethering... I just want to save a bunch of texts I haven't backed up with Handscent. Oh, and that app will let me try to log in, but it says my login details are incorrect even though I can log in on their website.
Anyway, I'm beginning to think I have a trojan and some government is tracking me with undisableable GPS or my phone has been haunted.
Oh, and I might add, I didn't install any new apps or even change any settings before this started happening. Any thoughts?
I also listed which apps work or don't work, if that helps...
Doesn't work (Force closes):
AK notepad
Alarm clock xtreme free
Amazon mp3
browser
calendar
capital one
chargebar
digital clock widget
draw free (doesn't say force close, just closes)
dropbox
Facebook
Gmail
Goggles - took a while authenticating then force closed
Handscent - can see the message list but force closes on looking at one of them
messaging
play store - seems to force close after it accesses my credentials
Talk - doesn't ever sign in
Voice dialer - immediately says "please try again. You can also try restarting your phone."
Youtube - "There was a problem with the network response."
Works:
calculator
camera [[works but no sd card recognized]]
clock
car home
contacts
Easytether
Gallery
Gasbuddy
Gpad
Maps
Market
music [[works - doesn't seem to play anything though]]
news & weather [[works, but can't get any weather info]]
OI file manager
Quick settings
Stopwatch & Timer
Tweetdeck - I can tweet from it, force closes sometimes though. (Didn't before)
Voice recorder
Also, all the data for contact storage, calendar etc. reappears after I reboot the phone, even when my number has been programmed onto a different phone.
Reflash
Did you try reflashing your droid?
No, and I'm confident that would fix it, but that would erase the texts that I want to save.
Look for com.zegoggles.smssync in the Market, it backs up messages and call logs using your Google account. Once you're done, reflash (CM6 works great in Droid and Milestone), then reinstall the app and restore your messages. Good luck!
I've noticed that at least two apps will mysteriously stop working in the background, causing problems:
First, most important, I use my Google Voice number, not my SIM number, so I need Google Voice to be running so that it intercepts my calls and uses the right phone number to make calls. If I open Google Voice, it will work for a few hours, maybe a day, and then GV stops working and calls start going out through my SIM number.
The other app that exhibits this behavior is Garmin Connect -- my watch gives me notifications, but then, for no reason, it will stop working. Opening Garmin Connect solves the problem.
I have ensured all permissions are set as liberally as possible, even the "allow autostart" option. Not sure what else to do. Any ideas would be great. I did not have this problem with my Mi 8.
Thanks!
I think I had a similar problem with the Runtastic app that I use for running: After around one minute of screen off time it would stop getting GPS data.
I fixed it by adding it to the list of apps that is allowed to run in the background. You can find this setting in the power and battery settings ("Akku & Leistung" in German).
I think you are talking about the Battery Saver > Choose apps ("Saving power in the background") list. In that list, you can set background settings for each app. I had both of these apps already set to the most liberal setting, "No restrictions (Battery saver doesn't restrict app's activity)". I changed them both to the second setting, "Battery saver (recommended)", which seems to be an automated, smart method the phone uses.
I also decided to try turning off the Use Adaptive Battery setting ("Limit battery for apps that you don't use often"). Maybe this is the culprit.
Any luck there yet? My vivo active hr does not even show live notifications....
