Database Develop

I think my phone is bugged, any help?

Yes this is the development thread, and all I really have is a problem, but I think it's something only solvable by you devs.
My phones sms has been completely Effing up lately.
I will get the notification up in the bar, and I can pull that down and read into the message, but if I open Handcent or the default app the text won't show up and will not be there.
So reasonably I stopped using Handcent, and Message widget and all sorts or things like that, wiped my phone, cleared the partition, flashed a new rom. Different firmwares [1.6 and the new open eclair]
But nothing really seems to help or work, apparenlty mms has been failing a lot which I know is more so on Tmobile's end then it is my phone but idk whats up, tonight I get this new Android notification
"com.android.mms a large number of sms messages are being send. select "ok" to continue of "cancel" to stop sending"
whenever I hit send, I haven't yet rebooted to see if it persists but it's a pain.
Is there any device log or collection I can submit so someone can look into it, possibly a bug? Virus? Somethin' stupid like that?
Thanks.
p.s. and my inbox isn't full or anything ridiculous like 1000+ messages, I've got about less than 50 currently, and when I said stopped using Handcent and MessageWidget, I mean uninstalled.

This happened to me on rare occasions while I was using Handcent. But it doesn't happen when I use the default messaging app. So I assumed it was due to handcent. Not quite sure why you're getting the other problems though... =/

This happened to me as well when I changed to a 2.1 rom. I chose to go back to Dwangs 1.6 rom until the 2.1 roms have been completely stable.

Hey try using ChompSMS. I think its better than Handcent SMS

That doesn't sound good at all.
Have you checked with t-mobile to see if you are sending a stupid amount of text messages? It could be someone is sending spam messages via your phone or something. It could explain why you are unable to receive messages.

I think you are from the government, trying to find out whom on here knows how to subvert there android espionage. I for one will state to you officer, that I know nothing about this, and am stupid to the whole concept of bugs.
PS Do not try to trace my post, as both me and my computer are wearing tinfoil hats (with the shiny side out).
In all reality, one trick I learned as a teenager to check if your phone may be bugged, is to find an old business that still uses a switchboard phone system (this was hard in the early 90's, and may be impossible now) and phone them. If your phone was bugged, then they would see two lines coming in as one and become quite confused.

Whoa guys, by "bugged" I meant viruses not I'm being spied on haha.
It's occured on the 2.1 build Open Eclair
and a Cyan 1.6 build.
With and without using alternative applications for messaging.
I got sick and tired of it so I decided to go back to my most solid rom I've ever used.
A Soul Life 1.5 build, and I haven't had any troubles yet.
When I preformed the nandroid backup however it still tried to act like my sd card was partitioned and the market was buggy for a few but the cache is cleared up and it's all good now.

[Q] Why does my SGS take so long to load up homescreen?

Hi there people. Here's my problem, when I have apps running, like internet, angry bird, etc, and click home button to return to homescreen, what's left is the wallpaper. It takes about 5 seconds to load up, and takes another 5 seconds to respond to scrolling. It gets annoying when I multitask.
I realise it's more laggy after opening apps like asphalt, hungry shark and especially angry bird, and playing movies. But after it's loaded, it's fine.
What can I do? I am currently on Doc's v7.6 XWJPA rom (startup tweaks disabled) with zenkinz's OC kernel and JFS/EXT4 file system. I have autokiller enabled at strict. I tried EXT4, EXT2 but I don't think it's the file system. I think it has something to do with media scanning perhaps?
Thanks for troubleshooting/advice. Really appreciate it if this can be solved.

No replies? my problem is very similar to this guy,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=689728.
And I've done pretty much did what he did too, factory reset, reflash rom, changed kernel, still nothing.
I realise that I don't get the load home screen when I for example,
Angry Bird > Press Back > Exit Game > Home screen pops up immediately usable.
But if I
Angry Bird > Press Home key > Home screen takes 10 seconds to load up and then become scrollable.
What can be done? Really need help guys.
Bump up my thread.

Bump up my post. Really need help.

It's because of your autokiller. Don't believe me? Uninstall it then see what happens. Don't use auto killers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, wow, chill mate. Okay okay. I'll try that and get back to you.

Hehe good luck. You're right, I do need to chill, point taken

Hi, done that and tested for a while. Still restarts home screen when I press home button. Not solved. I wonder if I am the only one having this issue?

You are not alone. I have the same issues, and I have never had any auto killer installed. The problem occurred after the upgrade to Froyo(stock). Any help would be appreciated.

Well time to put my foot in my mouth. My thinking was that the auto killer was removing the launcher from memory. Thus every time you pressed home, the launcher had to start again from scratch.
Sorry, wish I could be of more help :/

No worries Chalup, thanks anyway.
Yeah, since Froyo I've been getting that. I hope this can be solved.

Hey iamsatan, I think I found the "cure." Do you have quickdesk pro installed? I uninstalled it and now it's working fine. Maybe partly because I flashed a new modem. I flashed JPD modem instead of JPP.
Still testing.

I have the same problem after upgrading to Froyo there is occasionaly very long wait when returning to home screen.
When this is happening also applications are reloading, it looks that the launcher crashes or it is killed.
Any solution?

Cyanogen 6.1.0 Stable Release

As a sequel to my Cyanogen Nighlies thread, I thought it appropriate to create a celebratory post linking to the stable release of 6.1.0 for the Droid Incredible.
Please reply with your experiences, inquiries, and love for one of the smoothest, rock solid ROMs available for your device. I am also open to ideas about what else to include in this OP including links to themes, juicy nuggets of relevant info, or known issues (should we find any that are repeatable).
For now, please enjoy this excellent release, and kick a few pennies up to Koush. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
Download link (or just grab it from ROM Manager):
http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=inc&type=stable
Known issues:
-Cyanogen default auto brightness adjusts only once, so moving from light to dark results in protracted dim settings.
-While disconnected from the charger, trackball wake will intermittently fail. This is a known bug and has been filed as such.
-Flash Test does not do anything for applications that don't have a customized setting. It should still blink using the systemwide default green when a real event comes in.
Solution Sets/Workarounds:
To install the new Market and avoid FCs:
1) settings-applications-manage and delete cache for the market
2) wipe cache
3) wipe dalvik cache

What's the best kernel for 6.1?

"Best" is certainly a relative term, however my personal preference for both speed and battery life is invisiblek's AOSP kernel.

Which version do you prefer?

Incredibleks. Best Kernel ever. Seriously, for AOSP Roms, it is the choice. Seriously, overclocking on a snapdragon is pretty pointless. The speed differences are pretty much non-existent.

op link is messed up. you got an emoticon stuck in it

wow.. it took a while but nice to see it make final.. seemed like it was never gonna make it past rc status

I'm on 17 and love it but it appears that different kernels are acting differently on different phones. I was on 18 for a while an noticed that battery life wasn't as great and went back to 17, while other people said that 18 was better than 17 on their phone. Now 19 is out and if you look at the last couple of pages half the posts say that 19 is the best yet for battery and the other half is reporting ridiculous battery loss. You're probably best off getting the most recent one listed on the first post (#18).

Great ROM. I was running the nightly for literally a day only to come back at night and see a stable. This + the Gingerbread theme + Gingerbread Launcher will hold me over until the source drops for GB and we get a port

L.E.D don't work when getting text,mail,etc... other then that runs smooth. Thanx for all the hard work u guys put into these!

One question I have is this: I know how to remove the status bar widgets, but after doing so I'm stuck with that blank space normally occupied by the Verizon Wireless banner. Is there a way to put that back in there so there isn't that gap?
Odd that I want it back I know, but some things I'm just anal about.

Is there anyway to make it so that when you unlock and turn off the screen its instant instead of the fade out effect?

What's wrong with the stock kernel? Invisiblek are very solid but going to give koush's stock kernel a try.
On a side note, does anyone know if the stock kernel has smart ass governor on it?

Optical pad wake
Is anyone else having a problem with the optical pad wake only working once in a while? It always works if the phone is charging but if it isn't charging it's like a 30/70 chance of it working. It seems to work if you hold it down for like 5-10 seconds but that sucks.

Does anyone know how to make it so when I install this ROM all of my apps do not auto reinstall from the market...? My old wallpaper from an AOSP i had like 4 months ago still pops up as default also!
Even if I select "do not backup apps with google" it does not work. I have also tried formatting my SD card, and phone storage to no avail...
I want to install this, but everytime I have installed an AOSP ROM and then a theme, it goes haywire because there is some sort of backup file I can't find.

There's a bug report for this but no one has been able to fix it. I believe it's the trackpad sleeping when not on the charger.
Sometimes a long press and then a short one works.. sometimes it just works.. other times you have to hold it until the screen comes on..
My power button is broken so I live with the press and hold..

During the first setup, skip when it asks you to set up an account. Then run a google app like Market, GMail, etc. and sign in. Contacts will sync but applications will not.

WhatsApp& Hangouts Notification problem...

Dear xda users,
I have quiet some time a problem getting notification message in whatsapp and hangouts (even in the previously version on Google talk).
When i clear all apps with Task Manager. Exit to home screen. meaning, Whatsapp is not running in the background, I get no pushed messages, no notifications. Nothing at all.
I then launch the app and get all my "missed" message ,then exit back to the home screen and now I see the messages and notifications.
The same thing happen when the screen is off,actually it seem it start there.
I have no limitation on the background apps,surf only with 3g and it is happen also with hangouts,it is started a few months back before google update her app,in the old Google talk also.
The most strange thing is when i launch a game,because it uses the internet when i exit from it and not clear my task manger it seems like whatsapp and hangout getting the message for day or two and there again nothing,maybe i imagine i really do not know
My phone model is i9305 with official Samsung Nordic Rom.
i used avast anti virus until couple days ago.
By the way whatsapp+ that i saw here recently could help me in any way?
I really appreciate your help. :good:
want to clear it one and for all to enjoy my phone.
Thanks in advance,
David

Hi David,
you kinda answered yourself, the problem is with the task manager. I suggest reading the following:
http://www.howtogeek.com/127388/htg-explains-why-you-shouldnt-use-a-task-killer-on-android/
Chris Hoffman can explain better than me
BTW it's also says directly on whatsapp that it will not work well with task managers.
Cheers

Dear eytan123,
Thank you for your replay,I want to clarify myself and tell you that i do not use any external task manger,but only the built in one in jellybean.
In addition even when i do not "clear" my ram it still no working,i also compare it to others galaxy 3-i9300&i9305 that use and clear the ram with the built in task manager and still not suffer from this Phenomenon.

I guess Samsung keeps this app because it lets inexperienced users(unlike you and myself, or for that matter anyone in XDA ) the feeling that they can upgrade their performance...anyhow - It's strongly suggested that you don't activate\use ANY task killer.
Why not trying the suggested method for a couple of days? I'm sure your results will be much better

Thanks again for trying to help,but i already try this couple of times before open this thread.
Unfortunately not a single method that i tried was useful to me.
like to hear if you have another idea

upp

bumping a thread more than once every 24 hours is against the rules. don't post until you read them

Just noticed you asked about the whatsapp+ - it's not supposed to make things any better, only customizations. And you said the problem persists at the new hangouts.
If you're certain that your internet connection(cellular of course) is working good, before I suggest wiping and re-flashing or trying another rom I suggestthat you use the following app(it increases battery usage in a VERY MINOR way):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5hbmRxbGltYXgucHVzaGZpeGVyIl0.

Try clear data
Make sure sync is on

Hi,
Thanks eytan123 but this app that you gave me it is just for rooted phones,i do not want to root my phone in this moment,about the rom,it is the same problem that i experienced in my previous official rom.
Still glad to hear about this app for future notice
Thanks hello5629,if you mean to clear app data i already try this also
You wanna tell me that only my phone suffer this problem?

Just making sure - have you tried to uninstall and reinstall the apps ?

yep,several times..

Well I guess that leaves you with factory reset your phone.
But since your'e not rooted keep in mind you'll lose all your apps..

ya i know,i do not really want to do it,i think i will open a thread in general android forum,maybe there when it is not only i9305 community,maybe some will have the answer.
Thanks again for your effort

H811 CM14.1 [Official] - It's finally here!

https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=h811
Nov. 9th Build
Bugs I've noticed so far:
1. "CM Bug Report" crashes... lol kind of funny
2. SD card is readable from file man, but not from Gallery and Music
Things I have noticed:
1. Battery life is pretty good.
2. GPS is currently working and works well.

Agreed, I was pleasantly surprised.
I've flashed it a couple times, along with last night's build, and I haven't been able to restore apps and settings from Google Play. The Tap prompt is there, it just didn't do anything once I kicked it off. I also tried just signing into my account but I was never prompted to restore.
I also noticed that Screen Search (old Now on Tap) isn't set up by default. You have to enable it in the Google Search app, then enable Settings > Buttons > Home long press action > Search assistant.
For some reason, the home long press is set to 'Recent apps switcher' by default, which is pretty redundant.
Oh, almost forgot: the initial build didn't provide any indication on the screen when the phone was charging. The notification LED changed to yellow but nothing on the battery icon or the lock screen. The Nov 11 build fixed it.

I have never had the Now on Tap function work unless i enabled it through settings. Only on CM that is.
I didn't even notice the display not showing a charging status. I just go by the light to tell me if its charging lol
The only thing I really care about is the SD card being read correctly.

This is great. How is the stability and day to day usage?
Also does it include t-mobile WiFi calling? I read somewhere that, Google pixel includes the WiFi calling for t-mobile built in.

It doesn't seem to like sdcards > 32 GB. I tried to format one as portable storage and it got formatted as FAT32. I then formatted it as adopted, which seems to work so far, but the device storage shows "-60.52 GB used of 29.12GB". This is a 128 GB that worked fine with CM 13.0.

I've tried the November 11th and November 12th nightlies and the microphone didn't work on either. Otherwise it's working great Is anyone else having this issue?

Yes, I noticed it wasn't responding to my voice yesterday after I flashed the Nov-12 nightly. It had been working on the Nov-09 nightly.

It keeps complaining the my 128gb sdcard is corrupted and wants to format it. When I swap over to my MXPE, the sdcard mounts just fine. I can also access it on my PC.

Currently I have my card set as portable and formatted as NTFS.

I cant get my sd card read at all from apps still even on 11/13 build. also most apps wont install for me haha. so looks like im back on 11/09 build for now.

I don't know whats going on. First attempt had "No SIM". Second, everything working. Third, No SIM again.
The first attempt was upgrading from CM13.
Second, clean install after flashing the stock KDZ. (Cant be replicated.)
The third time I cant get it to work whatsoever, another clean flash from 20p Stock KDZ.
Issue is no baseband. dont know what to do.
After more experimentation I found that SuperSU (SR3) was the issue. Confirmed
Trying later versions. SR4 doesnt resolve the issue. NO root other than CM root
Other issues:
-SD card is not useable without root access in the file manager.
-Device encryption does not work. Cant be undone without stock recovery.
-Current version of TWRP is not equipped to handle encryption, No Crypto Footer, No CSI Structure, etc.

Same for me, any one been able to gain root access for this?

CM has a built-in root. I believe it's under the Developer menu (my G4 is in the shop so I can't check it now.)

No working camera, and it broke any app that uses the camera. This is a clean install. Constant app crashing. Everything from keep (the most common) to bug reporting. Tried every nightly. The most recent nightly (12.01) sent my phone into a recovery boot loop that couldn't be fixed by doing a complete wipe and restore, or a complete wipe and clean install. So at the moment my phone is bricked and ABD/fastboot won't recognize on my computer anymore. Can't even get it recognized in odin anymore.
I know there are a lot of changes going on at CM inc, so I should have waited until a full release was available. Completely my fault for trusting nightly software from a folding company.

lgh811 running the 14.1-20161130-nightly-h811
I did the standard cyanogenmod update as you would for any nightly update and this seemed to go well.
What works with no fiddling:
phone
texting
camera
wifi
user profile switching
works after fiddling
adaway - for this I had to install root explorer and mount r/w so adaway could modify the host file. The builtin file manager would not let me browse my 32 gig memory card at all.
Whats not working
cm bug reporter
Google play services
app notifications (facebook, email)
Weather underground had to be reset and the area where Weather Underground puts its data is blank as is the lock screen notification.
Oddly enough, email works. I'm not sure, but I thought google play services had to be working for me to recieve email on the standard gapps email.

Anyone still perusing this thread, don't try to go to cm14 from cm13 via the update path on your phone. I cleanflashed my phone with the December 2nd nightly and a current version of gapps and now the only problem I have is cm bug reporter (or cm updater, I forget which). GPS is slow to respond sometimes, which is something new. But that only happened in lyft.
