[Q] Doc's Master ICS V5

I looked at the posts in the dev section to see if anyone else had this problem, also noticed there is no Q&A for this ROM otherwise I'd post it there, I'd also post this there but I have less than 10 posts ;(. But around 2 days ago I flashed this ROM and all of a sudden the screen itself started to glitch, like half of the screen would split and disappear completely for a few seconds then reappear, then it would do it again but to the other half of the screen. Also restarted my phone to see if this would continue but it got stuck in a boot loop so I just flashed another ROM on the phone and it's been working fine so far, any ideas on how this happened? Would be appreciated..

It might have been a bad flash. Try redownloading the rom and flash again. Also, make sure that you do not have too many apps installed. How much free space do you have on system?

The only apps that I had were the ones that came with the ROM itself, didn't download anything before or after flashing it.

may i know does this rom support audience cancelling noise?
thx

I wanted to know which kernel is the best to flash with thi ROM other than glitch kernel that comes with the Rom.
The glitch kernel has a problem that you can't make a NANDROID backup with it. What other kernels does this ROM support can anybody post a link to one. I tried searching but couldn't find one

ICS ones, but the Dev thread tells that & more.
I don't miss Nandroid when I'm backing up with Super Manager, Super Backup for data, apks, call logs and SMS.

When my screen first appears after a reboot it does that, too, shows half the screen, then the other half, but only for a couple of seconds, I figured it's because it's still reading media, loading widgets, screen, etc. Doesn't last more than 2 seconds, fortunately.

Were you still running the Glitch kernel that installs with the ROM?
It's odd that it went from working to not working. It sounds like something changed something which caused a conflict or corruption... it wouldn't have boot looped otherwise.
If not had any issues like this...

It was a fresh install of the ROM itself, was running for ~ 5 minutes. I didn't install anything via the Market or anything like that....

Un-invert Calendar?
I like Doc's V5 ROM a lot. Best I've used so far. However, I don't care for the inverted apps and am using the "Revert Inverted Apps to Stock" tweak mentioned here. It works just as expected except for the Calendar app - it remains inverted.
Can anyone else confirm so I'll know it's not just me?
Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks!
Bob

Only quirk I had with V5 was Gmail force closed constantly, even though I never use it. It would just notify me repeatedly that Gmail, an app I never touched, was force closing. Wiped caches and fixed permissions. It's been money ever since. Could use stronger battery life, but hey. Beggars can't be choosers.

Anyone have vibration issues when receiving texts?

has any one experienced having a feedback loop in either your end or their end when using either the speaker phone or a headset?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA

I am having an issue with the system time. It won't update automatically. Just gets stuck at a particular instance like 3:45 and won't update until I manually change the clock from 24 hours to 12 or vice versa. The happens after long sleep periods like two hours. After this the problem is persistent until I flash a new kernel.

no vibration with texts
Yeah. Same here. No separate vibration for SMS. But if you turn "Vibration only" system wide - it works for SMS.
Awkward.

For guys having SMS problems with vibration. Go to SMS app, press the menu soft key, then settings, and scroll all the way down and enable vibration

Well anybody having an issue with time???please read my previous post^^ and tell me if it's sounds familiar , thanks

It happens when you switch a kernel as well? Try switching ROMs and see if it does it then go back to this, I haven't used this ROM since this incident ( OP ), using DK3 atm =p

Screen unresponsive

Hi everyone,
I bought a Samsung galaxy s last week from an eBay auction. The phone was described as touch screen lag. I was thinking that flashing a new firmware will solve the problem. I got really cheap though
The touch screen stops suddenly in every 5/6 minutes and I have to lock the screen using power key and unlock again to make it working.
when I got the phone:
Non Samsung battery and chargers were used, I changed and using original ones.
Stock XXJVS firmware in it.
First I flashed stock 2.2.1 froyo and test the screen using *#0*# code. it got pass. But when I start using it, the problem was still there.
Then I flashed stock GB, same story, now slim ics, same thing.
Please someone help me, there is nothing I can do with it now.
I search few threads related to screen problem but couldn't find one with similar problem. So asking here.

Sounds like a hardware problem to me..but it's really hard to say if it is. But it would definitely seem like it since it isn't ROM related. Maybe a water damage or faulty digitizer?

This happens to me sometimes very rarely though, it will be weird and hard to touch but speaking to someone with the same phone they said they had this problem to all I do to resolve the problem is lock and unlock the screen, I thought this was normal?

It shouldn't be normal. I am using another galaxy s for almost two years. But never had this problem in such extent, little bit lag on touchscreen when on froyo. But never after. Now with slim ics Temple run is more smooth then iphone 4.

Thanks for reply. When I got it first time, it was really annoying, the problem was so frequent that it was almost unusable. Now in new rom, after unlocking the screen it works little longer then before. Works like a charm when it works. So not sure this is hardware problem.
Sent from my Galaxy S using xda premium

I don't think this is a hardware or problem either, I broke the screen and replaced it and I still have the same thing when though it is very rare, so if it was the screen it should of gone after I installed the new one, btw I installed a whole new pre built front so the bevil and LCD, and my phone has never hib water damaged? Maybe its something to do with the bootloader? As that doesn't change through ROM flashes

I did that couple of times going through Advance slim setting. That didn't change anything. Now I'll try this as well.
I change touchscreen into chainfire sensitive option in semaphore app. Still lagging.
Tried over clocking to 1200 but it freezes and automatically reboots into recovery mode. I can use only after changing to default

Guys its really annoying now. Its behaving strangely. I played with it few hours and found out that the screen near the home button freezes first. I cant press the dock but still pull the notification bar? then stops working whole screen. I checked the show touches in developers options setting. Sometimes it works randomly actually without touching it , I just place my finger near the screen but didn't touch and on few occasion it works opposite direction, like I scrolled down but it gone up:crying:
Is this the sensor issue? Is there any way to fix? Any idea please?

I tried all of those apps, nothing wrong. I think I should change the screen and digitizer, I might need to go to the repair center because my hands shake (my usual problem) and hard to fix tiny things. I want to do few experiments before taking it to repair. I already put it in the freezer for two hours it was acting like crazy after.
Suggest me more...

Me too!
and i thought i'm the only one experiencing this kind of problem. it is exactly what i'm having on my sgs. seems to be temporarily fixed by turning the screen off and then on again, but after a while, the screen doesn't respond on the same spot as you're having.
i've managed a low level debug on screen touch response using adb logcat, and my touch doesn't really register any on adb logcat console.
they might be correct on the hardware problem, but when i'm on any gingerbread rom (2.3.6), the problem is gone.
guys, any idea what kind of drivers they're using on gingerbread for our touchscreen?

I have this too on ics, left half of screen stops responding, lock on/off sorts it....until the next time! Bugs the hell out of me!

Me too! on ICS
btw, i'm already on ics team nyx

change
flash CF KERNEL and put ICS CM9

middle screen not responding
- when in stock gb firmware (official from samsung), the touchscreen problem is gone.
- but i want the features of an ics rom, so i flashed one (first was slim ics); the problem appeared first; first guess was the custom rom was still in its early stages.
- flashed back to gb, no touchscreen problem.
- flashed new ics rom from cm9 (nightlies), problem appears again (ugh!).
- flashed backed to updated slim ics since this was the fastest and easiest to install, touchscreen problem still persist.
- found a temporary fix by turning the screen off then on again.
did a adb logcat full trace log of touchscreen input: what i noticed was the whole vertical middle part of the screen is not responding to touch; dragging touch from one side to middle is working just fine, but not starting from the mid vertical part.
the problem may sometimes go away after a while, and sometimes persist even after the temp fix. it's very intermittent indeed.
help please.

So your sgs touchscreen working fine on stock gb rom! It might not be a hardware problem then. We have similar problem, only difference is I have problem on GB too. I've even tried stock froyo, same story

same problem here, left part of the screen would be unresponsive at times
can fix by locking the phone through power button and unlocking it, thats why i think its a software problem.
I dont remember having this problem in GB also.
maybe something is messed up during flash?

I have the same problem with ics and jb roms from the onecosmic ics times and i had a topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1648287
I have written here but no one seems to now what it is, i have been using ics from onecosmics first release and had the problem from that moment on, different kernels, roms etc it is still here i have flashed gb again and problem is gone, flash again with ics the middle part still acts sometimes. ?...
We should request from kernel developers and rom developers to look into it. I have tried almost everything no luck so far

Anyone else experiencing this on their screens?

Noticed a minor issue with my note running RR. My screen gets distorted (No image displayed, crazy moving vertical green lines on black background) when I power on the screen It happens only once in a while but just wanted to see if this was normal. The image moves but I can't do anything else with it, but after pressing the power button off and on again the whole problem is fixed! I've had my note for almost two months now and it has happened around 6x already. I've ran various versions of RR and they are all present, I cannot confirm if this is rom related because I've never really tried using other roms except for testing.
Can't make a screen shot because I can't seem to replicate the issue.

once a while it happens. you havnt mentioned on which rom n kernel you are. dont think a big issue.

Yeah it's a minor annoyance but doesn't affect the phone's usability. So this is perfectly normal?

happened to me a lot of times, i forgot app what caused this.

Pixel Salad. Usually cause by franco kernel.

If I'm imagining what you're describing correctly, this happens to my Note whenever I watch video of any kind. Even YouTube.

I had it too few times when i get sms
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

I´ve had it happen to me a few times also. I get worried every time it happens because I think my screen is packing up. I started to think that it was ROM related(Alliance_ICS_v1) but NOW from reading your posts I realize that it´s NOT rom OR kernel related(NoteCore kernel) because it´s happening to people with different ROM´s and different kernels.I suspect that it´s a app related issue and Andrew0811 reported that IT WAS an app that was causing it.I hope he can remember what app it was because it would certainly be of great help.Could it possibly have been a Live Wallpaper,Andrew0811?

If I remember correctly it happened once when I got an sms and once while I was playing music and powered on the screen. This rarely happens to me though so it's just a minor inconvenience for me. Don't know about you guys though. Right now I'm on RR7 with speedmod 3-6

Happened to me only once. Pressing the home button when screen was off.
Franco kernel indeed. Pixel salad is a nice description.

It did not came from my mind. That is the term they use if you read the threads in franco kernel and it happens to me also once when im on franco.

Nope, I don't like live wallpaper. not kernel either, because i only use cf, must be chainfire 3d or screen filter.

The few times that it happened to me was also pressing the Home button when the screen was off BUT I don´t use the Franco kernel(Ficeto´s NoteCore 0.6) so again I don´t think it´s Kernel related but rather a app that causes this. I stopped using a Live Wallpaper and haven´t had it since.I hope that was the cause and it won´t happen again.I´ll keep you posted.I´m determined to find the culprit that causes this.:fingers-crossed:

[Q] Galaxy NOTE SOD problems.

My brother's galaxy note have been facing serious sod problems since he bought the phone at Nov 2012. After he faced it the 1st time , he sent to SC and got it back. After 1-2months the problem came again and he asked for my help. I persume it was because the malaysian firmware of the ICS was somewhat unstable from what i read from forums here and there. So i changed the firmware to JB duno from which country when it came out in MAC. After a week or so. The problem reappeared . So I just decided to root and chnge the kernel and also the ROM. Changed the ROM to a stock rom and a kernel. Still the problem persist. I'm out of options. Went to the ****ty SC and the idiots just factory reset the phone and give u back. BUNCH OF RETAR*S . (sorry for my languange)
Hope someone here may help me out with my problem. Thanks a million :laugh:

Check all the apps you have installed maybe you find the bad one whose causing it as you have mentioned it comes after sometime of installing a fresh rom and have you tried any aosp rom maybe that will fix the issue

I just installed an aosp rom (PA) and I hope it fixes the problem. Well I've seen the amount of apps installed in the note and its jst a quarter the amount I have in the Galaxy S2 and my S2 works like a charm. The note has been giving me headache ever since I got it from my brother. Hope this does solve it , if not I guess its something else maybe hardware

Phone sod twice on paranoid android. FML! Guess im visiting SC tmrw again.

Same problem with me..
My Note 1 has SOD since 1st time bought it..
be patience to install JB --> still SOD
change kernel to SpeedMod 5.3 --> SOD again
change kernel to PhilZ --> sometimes SOD
I have read many information that related with SOD in galnote 1, my opinion it is related with hardware too.. sometimes
or it is related with kernel... it can not wake from deep sleep..
anyone have another better suggestion to cure this ?

if u're using pure stock rom still facing the same problems then definitely is hardware issues！
if ur device still under warranties suggest bring to SC ask them do a thorough check on it n let them know what's going on actually...

Yes, I use stock ROM still has SOD,
so it's hardware issue for sure...
but I will keep the phone for now because sometimes SC doesn't give solution to this..

I too get this SOD once a week on my GT-N7000
Phone status when this happens:
stock JB(earlier ICS), non-rooted, data connection, wifi, GPS, bluetooth all disabled. Battery mostly above 80%.
Gmail, Google+, Facebook and all other social n/w apps disabled (yes, i am an oldtimer )
During SOD, if a third party calls my number, he hears it ringing, but my handset is dead as dodo (quite dangerous as the calling person may think i am not answering it)
i used to get this when it was on ICS and still getting it after i upgraded to JB.
Most of the time, SOD occurs during wee hours in morning ( i used battery monitor app that logs battery stats every 10 minutes to check the time when this happens).
Sometimes it occurs when the phone is in my jeans back pocket. phone needs a 10 second press on pwr switch to restart it.
Turning off the "power saver" mode seem to reduce the probability of SOD.
i have taken this phone to SC and they re-flashed the JB.
i told the SC chap that i have already done this and couple of factory resets, but he said that they do "much more" than just re-flashing through kies like calibrating camera, bluetooth )
does anyone in the know, know if this is indeed true ?
Thanks

updates...
After 2 days of re-flashing at a samsung authorised service center, i got SoD 2 times in a period of 12 hours.
once last night and second time when i was traveling to office.
Last night i installed some bare-minimum apps back after waiting 2 days for any SoD to happen in "stock" condition.
Well.... i did not pay 30K to use the GNote as just a phone, so installed some basic apps (Battery monitor, Bangalore BMTC, RealCalc, GPS Test, ES File explorer and a first time app StatusLogger)
phone went dead at 1:00 am in morning and as usual there was no wakeup alarm.
phone was warm to touch when it was lying dead. The battery which was 96% at 00:30 AM had gone down to 54% at 7:00 AM.
Status logger did not show any loss of GSM signal which might have resulted in phone transmitting at higher power/hunting for signal etc.
The "radio" seemed working, because when i made a call to the dead phone from my landline, i could hear the phone ring instead of expected "phone is switched off" message i was expecting.
So this has to do with application processor going in some infinite loop.
Uninstalling all apps is NOT an option.
anyone know if we can establish any debug connection to phone and know what the hell CPU is up to in this situation ?
any processor logger that will periodically log all the processes running on phone ?

SOD resolved... not a single one since 6 months.
Hey guys, just wanted to share this info with you, I had SOD's like anything and did all freakingly possible things right from flashing roms to kernels, speed up CPU, banging my head in front of the dumb witted morons at samsung service... to get rid of that pain. What helped me was an app called "WAKELOCK" by darken which is merely 72kb in size but works wonders, not a single SOD after that. What u need to do is.... it has a list of presets that makes sure your cpu stays up. You need to select the preset called "partial wake lock" which is at no. 4, and viola...
It ensures that the CPU is running. No SOD ever after. Also, you need to make it autorun on boot from the options. Yea, it does eat up batter a bit more but its definitely manageable. I still need to charge my note only at night.
Just to be sure, I uninstalled it and guess what, SOD returned. So, do try it, I hope it helps...

Random touch/input lag

My biggest issue with this phone is that every now and then my phone becomes very unresponsive in relation to the user input, up to a point where trying to type becomes frustrating. Actually, you can only notice this behavior while typing. Only rebooting or putting the CPU's governor into performance mode seems to help.
It happened to me for almost half a year on PixelExperience rom + HEX Kernel. Motivated by the thread's responses, I decided to switch to Havoc and even left its default Kernel, just to try a completely different software.
To my surprise, the behavior is exactly the same, every now and then that lag appears and makes typing in the keyboard very hard.
Any ideas? Is this happening to any of you? Is there a way to automatically change the governor when the keyboard is launched?

This happens to me too.. just typing on the keyboard, I didn't mind it as it maybe an app issue (referring to Messenger) but when I am playing this game (Mobile Legends) were most of the time it won't respond to when tapping the skills buttons.
That made me thinking if it is an issue with the phone. I'm just hoping its just an app problem. Mine is stock and just recently put in the Poco launcher.

I didn't realize it could also impact gaming,as I my self don't play. I was about to ask if you could try setting your cpu governor to performance and check the response but I see that you are in stock rom.
I will probably try another rom soon, and the latest hex kernel. However, having installed the latest havoc after more than have year different, and seeing the same issue, I suspect the problem is way bigger.

My phone has exactly the same problem. It is intermittent and really frustrating ....

That's the mistake. Is it worth sending to a manufacturer's service? :-S

I have the same problem, right now I'm on stock rom but also had this problem in miui (converted to 6x), I think is a hardware problem.

I would like to know if everyone is having this problem or not. I feel like it should be a hardware problem but at the same time the fact that it is intermittent could be an indication that there something behind it that we don't know, and maybe could be fixed by software.
I think hat putting it on performance doesn't fix it completely when it happens.

Yes I have the same problem, i thought it could be fixed by changing rom but seems like it wont be fixed by doing that.

Interesting, reading on internet, it seems like it is an issue with the google keyboard and swipe to text feature, i have read that disabling it fixes the issue, will try to do so and report if something happens.

I don't use the google keyboard ever. I use swift key. Will try that anyway. But I see the lag also in the apps and launcher as well.

Well, issue is fixed, it was actually the gesture typing that was causing the issue.
Anyways, try disabling similar functionality on swift keyboard, or try using a lighter keyboard.
I recommend Google keyboard.

I don't think it is related to google keyboard as it also happens while playing games when keyboard is not shown, please continue to test with swipe typing disable and report back

I have same problem with Swiftkey keyboard so it is not google keyboard related, in games like trials frontier and asphalt 9 too

I am back, you are right, it is giving me problems, is not always, but it is there.
Hmm.
I would debug it if I knew how to recreate it, but unfortunately it is really hard to replicate because it happens randomly

Reading around I found that playing with the gpu settings in developer options might solve the issue.
Will do and report if anything changes.

I dont have the A2 but was experiencing the same issue on my Mi8. I resolved the issue ( the exact same issue that you guys are having ) by changing the kernel default setting to Schedutil, I had it set to to conservative.
This may or may not help you, but it's definitely worth checking. Also, this issue happened a couple of months ago on the Miui EU Developer rom, so it could be a bug with the OS as well.

Thanks for the advice but I'm fully stock so I can't change kernel governor

I have this issue too. Keyboard laggs when typing. Touchscreen not working. I rebooted many times but the problem still persists. Then i installed Touchscreen Repair from Playstore. It seems to fix the problem. I can't confirm how good the app is cause i've just install it 2hrs ago. You guys should give it a try. The name of the app is Touchscreen Repair. All the best!

sorry for ressurect an old topic, but i did some research and found some interesting stuff:
Aparently this is a problem that occurs commonly on white screen Xiaomi phones (mine is gold) because they use different hardware for the black and white versions.
After i read this some people posted that comparing their other Xiaomi phones like Redmi notes this problem also occurs and just on the white phones.
I still doesn't have a solution, it might be a shot to replace the screen for a black one but i couldn't find anybody who did this to know if it's going to work

Yes, that app seems to fix the problem for me. Thanks!

Well just came here to update on the touch issue i had on almost every ROM (stock included)
Whenever the touch issue happens, nowadays i just hit the touchscreen hard using a single fingertip (like a hammer) and it starts working really, really good! I mean so good that even restarting the phone didn't fix it to this level haha ?
Earlier i just locked-unlocked the screen but this didn't always work. Restarting worked but its not really feasible always.
This solution is soo damn good in my phone right now that I can use this phone for a year from now if my screen doesn't break from the hammering ? earlier was thinking to exchange it with realme x2 pro real soon.
