Mobile Data exchange on custom rom - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I have a kinda general question... Is it possible on custom Roms/ rooted phones, that there is data exchange, which the system UI can't recognise? Please look at the attached Screenshots taken at the more or less same time. Droidstats app has counted the right amount of data as I made out on my carrier support, while my phone has counted much less...? How could that happen?

Have you reset your phone data. Done any updates to your handset which ment wiping cache etc...
Anything like this cab affect phone report.
Also the way the phone counts data may be different to how your carrier counts it.

Yeah of couse I did all of that in the past But not on this day, and here my phone counts 4,5 MB, while there was 12 MB ? That canĀ“t be just because my carrier counts different...?
But newermind...

But I am wondering whether there is the possibility that apps with root permission can use mobile data without letting my phone know? Or couldn't they just delete the counts after using the mobile data?

Just turn on "set mobile data limit" and then drag the 2 lines in the middle of the box, 1 to the left and the other to the right

Playstore not working

Hi! all. My playstore is not working. When i launch playstore, it doesn't load anything just the dark grey background with the message "No Connection RETRY". When i click retry, the screen just flash white quickly & return to the same screen. I tried to randomly search for an app but nothing comes out. I noticed that the option "My Apps" is also missing. Any idea how to fix this?

Make sure when you launch it you have fully working data connection or wifi.
If it doesn't work, settings> apps >all> Google play store and clear cache and data. And try again.

Uninstall the the play store updates? Or try finding a play store apk and go from there? If not
Then do a full wipe and repair with Sony update service. So odd that only this app is having issues.

Download it from PlayStation website, i did that, and install it by transfering APK file to your phone, than run it.
Of course, before that delete existing app.

A new play store apk was uploaded some where in one of the xda forums two weeks ago. Head over there and see if you can get that one installed. May fix the problem.

Did you disable background data for it? It might complain if that is turned off.
Are you from Belgium?

Have you installed any hacking mods installed that are connected to in-app purchases? If so, please remove them!

[Q] update apps still listed after being frozen

Does anyone know why if I freeze the att update stuff in TB it shows up when looking at the battery stats for android systems under included packages? Don't want an update forced on me and I'm trying to make sure I did it right.

Did you reboot by any chance?
Yes, rebooted a few time both reboot and power off and back on. If I go into "about device" and hit "software update" it won't even load, button clicks but that's all it does. So I assume it's at least disabled at this point, I just don't want to assume wrong and get stuck with a secret att update and loose root.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app
Mine still lists it as well even though it is frozen with Titanium Backup.
Ok maybe it's normal then. Thank you for checking.

My Note 3 random reboots

It started yesterday. The biggest changes I can think of are
1. adding Gear Manager and connecting Gear 2 Neo to it which happened one week ago. No issues till now
2. putting in and taking out a microSD card. Shortly after this action, the random reboots started. I don't think I messed up the related hardware. I did it carefully, not forcing anything. I even shut down the device and popping the battery before inserting and removing the microSD.
I'm scratching my head what could have triggered the random reboots. I have shut down Bluetooth to trouble-shoot what is causing the random reboots. Any insight is greatly appreciated. Thanks
What firmware are you on? Are you rooted? Have you tried another sd card? Maybe try a factory reset

I believe it is in gravity box. But it is possible that wanam has that feature as well.

My Note 3 isn't rooted. It's running stock KitKat. It doesn't have a microSD. I put one in to copy files and took it out right away. I don't know if it was a coincident. The reboots started shortly after I put in and took out the microSD. I think it's more a coincident because I was super careful with the microSD slot.
I just did a reset. I'll observe if reboots happen again.
I know it sounds crazy but try going into Settings>Wifi>Advanced and unchecking "Always Allow Scanning". Once I used a SD in it and have that checked my phone randomly reboots no matter what ROM or MODs I use and I have met other people on here that have had the same issue and unchecking that setting fixed it. Something about the way some SD cards work and that setting not playing nice with each other. Hope this helps you, I know it nearly drove me mad until someone suggested I try unchecking it.
I did a reset and restored my all apps backed up by Helium. I got random reboots still. But may be because I also restored Gear Manager and its associated plugins and apps, I was still getting random reboots. I have reset again and restored all my apps without the Gear Manager etc. So far it's been 20 hours, no random reboots. I'll observe some more. I just have the feeling Gear Manager etc have something to do with the reboots.
@zacharyt86: I'll remember your tip too. Thanks
My N3 used to do that a lot so i rooted the phone and now i have no issues. I did have issues with some roms and when i was using a rom slot on ss but no issues on the stock slot.
Im on JB though but my note had the same issue. I think its a memory issue... I was also using a cache cleaner then that i just havent used since i changed roms
Ya think it just could be one if those weird things I see others having issues that I'm not having if it keeps doing it I would call Samsung or take it back to att

Root alone does nothing. All it does is allow administrative access to everything.

Google or the search function will answer your question.
Highjacking a thread will not.

It's been 60+ hours. No reboots. I'm inclining to conclude it's Gear Manager and its associated plugins and apps that caused the reboots. I'll install Gear Manager again, not install any Gear app, just connect phone calling and default notifications, i.e.all default stuff. Will report back.

Did you use xposed, or did you do any modifications. I haven't found a post yet where the phone was broke after towel root, where towel root itself broke the phone.
Agree. There's no reason the root itself would cause this. Give us some more info so we can help you better. MMS can be finicky anyway on this phone. I've had some message delay issues (which are mms), but I've found a restart helps stuff come and go faster.

I've noticed pretty much every one of the "my phone's not acting right after towel root" in some way has xposed involved.

There is a reason for this. It is the network not the phone. Picture messaging is not sent through as normal data on the default text app it has to go through the towers.

I've found that mms doesn't work when using adblock plus. If you're using that, delete it and switch to Adaway. Fixed the problems I was having with mms messages.
DI'm having this same issue. A reboot causes a pending one to download but can't sent out. Uninstalled add block plus and still have issue. I did install add away
For clarification. I installed and successfully ran towellroot. Installed xposed and then the xposed framework. Installed wanam xposed. Changed a few things in the notification bar like battery. Put symbols back into keyboard.
Strange it worked for a few days just perfectly fine... now it does not work.
That's all I've done.

Since you're rooted, maybe you should do a full backup in TiBu, wipe clean, and restore. It might fix whatever broke.

I think I may have got it working last night. Adblock Plus did not an uninstall the first time I did it properly so it over wrote the settings again no I didn't know it. After a couple reboots with adAway install it seems to be now working

[Q] Unable to answer incoming calls if screen unlocked

I have a XT1053 (T-Mobile) on stock 4.4.3 that is rooted. I've noticed within the past couple weeks that if I get an incoming call while the screen is unlocked, I can't pick up the call because the incoming call screen will not come up. The navbar disappears and the icon shows in the statusbar, but I can't drag the statusbar down. All other touch screen interaction works like normal. If the call comes while the screen is off, the incoming call screen shows up like normal. As you can understand this is a bit annoying. I disabled Xposed completely and tested it after a reboot but that didn't fix it. Has anybody encountered this or know of a fix? I really don't want to do a factory reset as I have my phone the way I like it, but I understand if it is needed.
Thanks
Have you uninstalled all the xposed apps as well as the framework?

I haven't but that shouldn't make a difference if I completely uninstalled the exposed framework.

I had the exact same issue. I had to factory reset (i.e. wipe data) to resolve the issue, unfortunately.

Not sure why I couldn't find your thread. I thought it would come to this unfortunately. I'm trying to think of anything I could've done but I've not messed with anything that I know could cause issues.
