Strange behavior from G1. What can it be?

So I have a ADP-1 and about once a day it freezes after you put it in standby I end up having to take the battery out and putting it back in and reboot, when I say it freezes it is unresponsive to any buttons you push. I thought it was an app causing this so I run advanced task manager and kept only weather widget running as far as apps go. as far as processes go i don't know what can be turned off or not so I have not alltered them. I am running cyan 3.6.5. Any way to tell what is causing this. It boots back up fine everytime and only does this once a day. Any Ideas?

I keep reading about compcasche do I have to do that I am not comfortable in the console.

I've never had to do much in console with Cyanogen's but thats just me. I just flashed this on there and away I went.

do you know if android plus theme works with the new ROM? Just looked it does not

Post back with how it works out for you

Try turning off your data roaming.
Settings -> Wireless Settings -> Mobile Network -> Data Roaming
or something like that
That should fix it, if not, reflash your ROM
P.S Android + will not work with Cyan 3.6.7-2
Cyan will be releasing 3.6.8 today, and OhMarni will port it as soon as everyone thinks its stable.

thanks! You guys are great

after disabling data roaming the phone went about 48 hours and froze again tmobile said there is basically no info about that problem that they could give me being that I upgraded the recovery the warranty has been voided. Any other Ideas?

it froze up again and I called it from My wifes phone and It unfroze the buttons blinked twice and the screen came on so this is app or ROM related. is there an app that can record the functions on the phone to see what the last function was that is causing the problem?

read up on adb, get it to work and type adb logcat
you shouldn't have told tmo you upgraded your recovery, rooted......
if all else fails, flash RC29 (DREAIMG.nbh) and start over

everything is Force Closing since yesterday

hey guys, I don't know what's going on with my S7 but yesterday was working fine and out of nowhere everything started to FC! From twitter to "Google Services Framwork", Gmail, browser, tweetdeck, calendar, voice, I can't pretty much use it anymore, I haven't done any new app installations so i don't know what's wrong! is it just me, or anyone else having this problem??
Any help will be much appreciated!
Thanks

That has happened to me 4 or 5 times. It's like half of the device gets erased but the apps are there. Everything force closes. I end up having to erase the device and re-install everything. Reboot into recovery if you can't figure it out and format the system and data. For some reason when i do that, i keep root. Not entirely sure how that happens, but one less step for me. I think root is power and one of the volume buttons.

ha! i remember I already did that. After the Update we had, and I exchanged mine for a new one I decided to stay with no root (i don't know why! lol) so I guess I'll reset everything and go back to root I figured at the end I was gonna do that, but I was trying to see if it was just me or there was a fix
thanks man!

ok, so since yesterday I've been trying to factory reset the DS, and when it boots back on, everything stays the same!
I'm a little confused now, if I take a picture and I turn the tablet off, when I turn it back on, the picture disappears. Same thing happens if I move widgets, delete or create new ones on the screen, they go back to as the configuration was on friday night! GV not working, and the last message that shows there, same thing, shows the last one on friday. I don't know what can I do.... should I call dell??

duck tape and dynomite
stupid thing started crashing yesterday FC this and FC that ....cant restore it as i no longer have write access to the internal sd card
1) tried nv flash
2) tried restoring from clockwork
3) tried pushing files through adb
4) tried fastboot ....
if i didnt just dump money into this thing id blow it up ......
any help would be appreciated.......any tips to fix it or kill it completely so i can get another one
actually deleted all of the files on internal sd card and uninstalled every program on the device looked completly stock ....rebooted it and it went back to how it was yesterday ......theres gotta be a reason why other are having the same problem that started on the same day .....maybe dell pushed an OTA update and screwed us ......just a thought cause mine was fine till i went 4g yesterday so my sis could post facebook pics ....not sure but hope we can figure this out

Samething happened to me
Hi, did you ever find a solution? my streak 7 was ran out of battery, before it shut off, the screen started flickering and then it turned off. after it came back on, it looked like it was fine, everything looked normal, but then everything started force closing, haven't found a solution

I'm running stock, and I discovered the hard way that you can't let the S7 battery run all the way down. The S7 will not power itself down in time. I had the same issue, and the only way around it was to do a complete factory reset, using the menu button from the main screen. I think the reset is in the "About" section, but I don't have my S7 with me now.
Being used to WM6, which powers the device down at 5%, I was not expecting the device to do this, but there it is.

dell streak 7
im not sure if I am the only one with this issue you but becareful with the streak 7 mine well both of mine wont charge properly and the newest one wont charge at all. i have to send it back to dell for them to fix it. Im not sure what cause this but my only advie is to never use a different charger for it only dell chargers. Im guessing that it messes up the battery callibration and then it gets really hot when charging

[SOLVED?][Q] P1010 home and search key not working

Hello,
My SGT p1010 got unresponsive (the display didn't want to turn on) and I held the power key untill shut down. After turning on again, the home and search keys are touchable (I get the vibrant feedback), but there isn't any action performed. I unfroze some samsung stuff I had frozen before that and restarted, but no effect.
As a side effect, the icons and widget (accuweather) I placed manually on the desktop disappeared, and the programs got sorted by name (not like before - the latest installed - after the earlier ones).
Was this some kind of soft-hard reset?! No info disappeared though..
Any ideas why is this happening and how to fix it?

Well, I just did factory reset and it's all ok now..

It will happen again
i had the same problem. went to a samsung store and they updated the gt software. they were sure that the update was the solution to the issue, but it happened again. please contact samsung support to make them know this important problem.

Same problem here.
Contacted Samsung. Waiting for a call.
Problem:
- Home screen reset to factory settings. Some settings like key sounds reenabled
- Home and Search key not working
All account settings and apps are still there.
Also when you shutdown the phone there is only one option "shut down". There were 3 before. Like offline mode and one other option i don't remember.

Just what I was gonna recommend. It usually does the trick
Tbolt meatclaws-talkatap

Doing the "trick" every day is not that great though...

Again
This stupid issue happened AGAIN....I refuse to factory reset it again! Any ideas?
@ravage2k : did u get a call from Samsung?

It happened to me 2 weeks ago, did a factory reset and I'm waiting for the next time :'(

Bad Samy BAD!
happened to me just now, the KIES trick fixed for me, but not only the buttons do not worked, even my google acount wasn't registered, after unplugin the device it asked me for my acount restore settings, and also no lock screen until pluged to kies We really need an update for the P1010 even if it not froyo but this problem seems to be for a lot of users... I dont whant to connect to kies every day just for the fix

the problem keeps spreading to all reagions
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v​=BiE3BxnGjUY

I've had this problem for the past 6 weeks since I got my gt p1010. It happens a couple of times per week. Grrrrr.
The Kies solution fixes the home key & lock button issue and all the apps are there, however I get the following two things:
* All Homepage data is lost (I have to re-do all of my homepage icons)
* My browser bookmarks are all lost
Haven't done a factory reset as I'm not convinced this will fix the issue - that certainly seems to be the case for Malicieux anyway!!
Might this be something to do with pattern lock??
Has anyone found a solution to this yet?????
We need a firmware update and fast!!!

P1010 Home and Search Key not working
Hi Guys,
I have read your posts and have also had this really annoying problem.
The last time I did a factory reset, I have intentionally not installed any additional apps or setup my Exchange e-mail client, as I strongly suspect that it will be down to something like this.
I have not had any problems at all so far - where before it would lock up and reset multiple times in one day.
I have not yet installed any of the previous apps I had, but I will be installing one a day until I find it crash again.
It didn't have many apps on their but here are a list. I am curious to see if anyone who has also experienced these issues had installed the same apps as me.
Skype, BBC Iplayer, GoogleSky
or were connected to an Exchange account.
I have setup my exchance account once more today - but without checking the Sync Calender or contacts options.
It has been working for 1/2 day with still no problems.
I suggest everyone else who has this problem does the same and we nail down the offending app!
You will need to do a factory reset - not a Kies Sync fix - because you will always get the problem again (because you still have the offending setup / app)
Let's nail this down!

I have a P1000, so not sure how valid this is. I searched on Google and there appears to be an Android issue 8503 (I think?) related to this:
Home button vibrates but no action
Search doesn't work
cut-down "power off" menu
no security lock
I experienced this issue repeatedly when updating Overcome ROM, I narrowed it down to restoring backed up apps. So I've downloaded apps from the market and restored data from Titanium Backup. I think I've got a contaminated back-up somewhere.
Since not restoring apps (after trying at least twice, maybe 3x), my system has been stable. While not pinpointing the issue, I hope this helps someone...?

@ irw030370 same here...
@ snesy i think the problem lies with Skype.
my father has the same problem with his P1010 ans the same temporal solution when connecting the tab to his pc ( he does not need to start Kies, just connect it with a usb cable )
I did a reset once but installed all the SW directly after that...
strange thing is that my mother has also a p1010 same version of FW and so on and does not have that problem...
next week i'll get my hands on his tab and will perform a hard reset, and do as you suggest.
Will update my findings later on...
Greets,
T.
Edit :
With the basic install, added only skype and some email accounts. I did not have an issue.
Still looking...

Hi all
any advance on this problem?

You should update to Android 2.3.

I did not have any problems with this new version so far.

S4A Occasionally Won't Wake from Sleep

I can't figure out what's causing it. I don't have very many apps installed that didn't come with the phone, and any I did install were from the Play Store. I haven't done any modifications such as root to the device.
In order to bring it back to life, I have to either hold the power button down for 30 seconds to shut it down (or take out the battery) and power it back on.
Interestingly, if I have notifications waiting and the LED is flashing, that continues to flash even if the phone won't wake up.
I did 'disable' several of the bloatware apps in the app management area in Settings. I'm starting to think that must be what's causing it. Is there a particular bloatware app that should never be disabled? One that would cause this issue?
Other apps I've installed are things like Netflix, eBay, the app for my bank, and a TV-listings app. Pretty basic stuff. I don't think any of those would be the problem, would they?
Remaining battery doesn't appear to have an effect. It's happened with full battery and somewhat low battery.
'Services' that I use are Exchange push email and Gmail. I also have it Bluetooth synched to my car's hands-free thing.
Any help would be appreciated. Taking my phone out of my pocket to use it just to find that it's not responsive is very troublesome.
Thanks.
EDIT: For clarification, this is an AT&T version of the S4A.

maybe u can enable back all the apps that u have disabled and see if it happens anymore.
u mentioned "the phone won't wake up" and "not responsive". do u mean that the screen stayed off and u are unable to get the screen to be on?

That's right. None of the buttons wake the phone up or turn on the screen. I can tell the phone is still 'on' though. It's not like it got powered off in my pocket.

The advice you've got is sound - if you think it might be because of disabled apps, re-enable them all and see if it keeps happening. If it doesn't... well then you disable them one at a time until it starts happening again.
Then you come back to the forum again and let everyone know which app never to disable.
If it doesn't stop happening after re-enabling all the apps... well then my guess would be a faulty device. Can't think of any other logical reason for it to behave like that. So try the apps first, if that doesn't help, "return to sender".

if enabling back all system apps do not resolve the problem, try disabling all user apps to test. one of your downloaded app may be the cause.

Alright, over the past month I've done a bunch of testing. Here are my results.
1. Re-enabling all the system apps didn't help.
2. I uninstalled all my user apps. Didn't help.
3. I completely reset the phone to stock settings and formatted all storage. That didn't help.
4. I figured maybe it was something with bluetooth since it seemed to happen after I used bluetooth devices. I disabled bluetooth completely. It didn't help.
I'm out of ideas for the moment. Could the phone just be bad? I would wonder why the issue only happens occasionally.
Thanks.

Start a chat with Samsung. They have always been good to me.

Solved, rom change and ready, do not turn off more

I have the same problem in i9500. I now live in China and have purchased an s2, s3 and now the s4 from China Unicom. I have successfully rooted and flashed new ROMS (latest HK stock firmware) on the S2 and S3. When I bought the s4, it worked fine. I immediately flashed the latest stock HK ROM using Odin 3.07, After flashing, the phone is unresponsive after going into deep sleep meaning that nothing happens when I press the power button. After a long press of the power button, the phone will re-boot. Sometimes I have to pull the battery. Again, this phone is totally stock. I haven't added any applications. I re-flashed the stock China Unicom formware and I took the phone to the Samsung Service facility and they did a new flash. Phone worked great. I take it home, flash the HK ROM with Odin...same results; phone is unresponsive after going into deep sleep. I return to the Samsung service store and they again flash the phone. Phone works fine. What are they doing that I'm not doing? Could the partition table get corrupted during my flash processes. Should I try another version of Odin? Should I try a PIT file and try that? I'm downloading the ROM's from SamMobile. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Edit: I fixed this problem by upgrading to 4.3 which brought it's own set of problems.

Keyboard on Home Screen

Searched the forum but didn't see anyone having the same problem I do.
Just got the Note a few days ago but I have an annoying problem. Whenever I exit and app or unlock the phone to the home screen, the keyboard will just pop up by itself. It'll go away when I hit the back button.
I've tried removing all widgets and apps from the home screen and it still shows up.
Does anyone else have this problem or know of a solution? Thanks.

i dont know on that one.
I had a similar problem with android in general.
Normally i would have the keyboard out and type something then hit back or home and the keyboard would still be there until i hit back again.
Happens a few times here and there on a few different phones.
But it seems like your saying its happening all the time?
Try to clear out the cache and see if that helps it.
Also check the ram on the phone and see if there is any apps staying in the memory that could be the cause. (3rd parts apps)
