I am facing an issue with the email widget on Stock Rom (Jelly Bean 4.1.2), it's not refreshing automatically. I mean when I receive a new email I get the notification on the Notification drawer but as I go to read the email on the widget (on my second screen, have 2 home-screens) the email is not there. When I scroll down or up then it refreshes and show the email. Can anyone tell me why could that be. My Note is rooted with Philz kernel if that's relevant.
It is happening with me for the last week or so. Firstly I thought it must be due to the apps/processes I have freezed hence I defreezed all of them but no luck. Then I went back to stock via Odin (Did a clean install with Stock JB Rom DDLSC from Dr. Ketan's topic) and didn't freeze anything but still the issue is there.
It's not much but irritating to say the least. Can anyone throw some light into this issue please and tell me if anyone else is facing this or it's me alone.
Did a search but found only one topic with this issue but it's nearly a year old and also the concerned Rom on that topic was the ICS hence I made a new topic instead of bumping the old one.
In case anyone's interested, the old topic is Here.
Thanks for your time
Kind Regards

Hello all,
I am hoping someone can give me some advice as what to do next. First let me give you some details. I am using a Galaxy S on O2 UK and have just updated to Gingerbread via KIES. Versions are as follows
GT-I9000
Firmware 2.3.3
Baseband I9000BWJV2
Kernel 2.6.35.7-I9000XWJVH-CL184813 rootDELL101 #2
Build GINGERBREAD.XWJVH
Immediatley after updating everything was fine and then I noticed the battery drain that many people are suffering from with Android OS taking anything from 40-50% of battery use. And then all of a sudden I noticed that 3 of my shortcuts from bottom of the home screen have gone missing including messaging, dialer and contacts. The only icon left is Apps. When I go into Apps, all my apps are there and seem to be working except for the 3 icons that went missing from the homescreen. So basically my battery is lasting about 11 hours and now I cant access my messages, contacts or dialer which means my phone is useless.
I have been reading up about possibly trying a new custom ROM and would appreciate some advice on which ROM are compatible with the current versions of my phone. Also if anyone has come acroos this missing shortcut problem you may be able to help.
Thanks in advance,
Melchiah
All i can tell you is that custom roms are much better than the original ones,but it is a bit risky to flash.You must read very well before u do it.There is small chance to soft brick it but u can always fix it back yourself just read arround.

I have noticed that lately my calendar reminder do not always work as expected after upgrading to ICS on vivid.
Most of the times when it doesn't work is when I set a reminder event, reboot the boot. Once the phone is up, it doesn't show any reminders for the event that was set before the reboot. Has anyone else noticed the same ? Any ideas, solutions ?
Am I the only one seeing this issue, everyone else calendar event are being reminded correctly, even after the restart of the phone ? Any feedback yes or no would be great guys. I am sure most of you who own a vivid have updated to ICS, so there should be some feedback at least

This has been noted b4 and from the few devs and more experienced members have said that its a bug within ics ....iv heard that u can use a third party app to get reminders but I don't personally use that feature so I'm no good on that aspect ...but I thought I would let u know what iv read
Thanks, for the reply. Hope Google comes out with a fix soon.
Hi Guys,
Having installed the "GT-N7000_SweetROM_V6.0_LSF (1)" on my GT-N7000 Note, made it happen that "S-voice", if I want to work with it, is always giving the message: "No network connection, connect to networks and try again".
Trying to make sure that it was not my phone itself that caused this problem, I unrooted my phone and reinstalled its Stock ROM (N7000XXLSZ_N7000XENLS4_XEN.zip) again. Then, everything worked like clockwork again - so the ROM probably must have caused the problem...
My question, probably to the developers of this ROM (although the Note users themselves are also invited for suggestions), is if they are familiar with this "S Voice" issue on the GT-N7000 where "GT-N7000_SweetROM_V6.0_LSF " was installed? If so, could you please tell me what to do to have "S Voice" also work with this ROM? Does it have to do with my settings or should there be an update needed to have this problem solved? I really would love to have this ROM reinstalled again and hope you can hand me a solution. :fingers-crossed:
I hope to hear from you soon.
Greetings,
Robert,

Thank you for your reply. I have been searching the internet but all I found was that this issue was regarded to other smartphones, like the Samsung S3.
If there is a GT-N7000 user, familiar with this problem (having installed the SweetROM V6 and facing problems with S Voice afterwards) and knowing how to fix this, I really would like to hear from him with the solution he found.
Thanks again.
Robert,

All I can say is you need to read all the notes etc on the page you got the ROM from. If you had you will find this;
MORE THEMES & FIXES
3 Great themes for Sweet ROM V6 from kmokhtar79 (Arman, Parsa & Kamran Theme's) - HERE
Multi Window NON TRANSPARENT - HERE (flash in cwm recovery)
Sweet ROM colorful icons on status bar - HERE (flash in cwm recovery)
Stock Battery (no percentage) & Transparent status bar with grey icons - HERE (flash in cwm recovery)
Total Stock Icons and battery with BLACK status bar - HERE (flash in cwm recovery)
SVoice fix. This will remove S4 SVoice and replace with working one from S3- HERE (flash in cwm recovery)
and this;
NOTES
SNote widgets are already set on home screens on TW launcher. They can be moved around the home screens by long press then move to screen of choice. If you delete them and then try put them up again from widget drawer they will now be wrong size. Sorry this is the best work around I have at the moment.
If you use the installed Xperia Launcher the widgets will be the right size.
Please note Snote may stay open in task manager/ active applications until you reboot. This is a known bug. FIXED BY THIS METHOD HERE
If you get SVoice "Can't get to network" error then flash fix above. This will remove S4 Svoice and replace with working one from S3.
Hope this helps you. If you still need help you can find the page HERE
Thank you for your reply.
I think you're doing me a great favor again with this fix. I'll let you kow if it all worked out.
For what it's worth: I DID read this page before, but I (mis)understood that the S Voice-fix, like I said earlier in my above message, was purely ment for the Samsung S3. So that is why I asked for your help. Since I am also very new on the job (flashing my phone that is), I do not hesitate to ask for help at the source. I hope you weren't annoyed...

As I promised, I would inform you if the "S Voice" fix dit its job. Well, naturally, it worked as you stated, however I now see that "S Voice" does not show a choice menu anymore. Is this the way this fix works, is this the same way that the "S Voice" is working on the S3 as well, or am I stupidly missing a setting option to have the S Voice choice menu appear again?
Also I noticed, when having the "Sweet ROM V6" fixed, inside "S Note" the virtual red recording button on the top task bar, does not activate. I was hoping this fix would deal with it as well, but it did not. Are you familiar with this problem as well and the way to fix this?
To be clear, I am not critizising at all. I just bump into small issues I would like to know if they can be solved...
I hope to hear from you again.

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
I searched all around but cannot find any threads about this issue. I just updated to the official kitkat 4.4.2 NC2 build and I am having an issue with the stock messaging app. When I'm in the conversations list and go into one of the conversations, it lags for a few seconds, the page loads fine but it takes about 5 seconds for the text messaging bubbles to load and contact pictures and all that stuff to load up. I don't think it lagged like this before, but I don't have anything to reference it to, I don't know anyone else with a Note 3, let alone one on the 4.3 build. I went from the official 4.3 build completely unrooted and stock and took the OTA upgrade. This is really the only place I can find any laagyness in my phone after the upgrade. Is everyone else's phone doing the same thing, or is it just mine?
I'm not looking for a fix or anything, I know not being rooted means about all I can do is clear cache through stock recovery or clear app data through settings. I just want to know if everyone's does this or if it's just me before I try a factory reset.
