[Q] New Year Failure

Hey guys, happy new year first off. Now, my problem started right after new years where I receive a text message from a friend. Keeping in mind that i have a i896, i flashed to cognition 2.3b8 or w/e the newer version is called. I try to reply to my friend when all of a sudden it fails. So I try calling him instead, that failed as well. I tried texting and calling other people but that failed as well, yet my browser still continued to work. After an hour, no data can be found on my phone so now I am confused. I probably rebooted my phone 10 times by now. Anyhow, I reboot it and launcher pro settings are messed up, saying im not a pro member when i clearly paid for it as well as my phone not being able to receive any data from Rogers. Now, I randomly get a text from a friend, in which i cannot reply to once again. Is there anyway to fix this issue as it is quite random?

Sounds like a modem issue to me man. I would reflash and make sure you follow the instructions to the letter.
Also please post in the correct forum, this is not a development issue, it is Q&A.

What do you mean by the "letter." I will certainly reflash and repost in right section.

He means follow the instructions step by step and do exactly as they say even if you think you can skip a step or don't think it's necessary.

I think it's the unpublicized 2k11 bug..............
j/k.............just had to throw that out there. Hope you get it sorted.

I896... I had same issue. Rogers network was overloaded with calls and text messahes. My browser/data was still working. Happy new years rogers customers you come to find that the network is not as good as led to believe.

Hi,
your answer is here!. Seems to be a hardware short circuit.
maybe putting your open device close to a warm source to dry it will give you 15.031969% to save it...
Else, I fear you need Samsung service..

I don't mean to be rude but why did you open a thread here on XDA about this?
This site is for mobile phone/tablet development.
You have bought a faulty device, it happens.
You need to take it back for a replacement, simple.
I hope you get it sorted! It's never nice buying something and it not working properly.

i believe it got something to do with calibration or something related to software
as phone was flashed earlier and it might be something to do with flashing
i was thinking of writing NV calibration data from another phone to see if that may help, but thought of getting more ideas first.

Oh right, fair enough then. I thought it was brand new and you'd just taken it out of the box.

as good as new, only a few days used, sending it back would be costly
so i thought to get some ideas if it could be calibration data or something, as i have already flashed it but it didn't yield any result..

Ok, more info on problem, need translation

Before i absolutely go batsh*!
because i have never ever been unable to figure out and repair a phone problem,and ive owned and rooted many as well as tablets, here is some information.
I took some logs of this lag every 5-10 seconds and this is what comes up.
"Choreographer Skipped 51 frames! The application may be doing too much work on its main thread."
Does anybody have a freaking clue what this is referring to and how i address it? Dear God help me

This will be addressed when custom Roms are made. Many things to change and mod to get a second of lag removed

Hey guys i might be selling my phone i cant deal with hangouts being laggy and the occasional lag overall im having. I really do love the phone but it's really annoying with hangouts. I know we're getting lollipop maybe by january according to the samsung rep at my AT&T store but i cant wait that long and i want to go back to having a nexus So i might get a nexus 6 while i use my old nexus 5.
I always have the worst luck with ODIN and i have Firekat right now so i need some help to return back to stock. I downloaded the stock NJ7 ZIP file but i dont know how to use it and I really dont want to brick my phone. Can anybody PLEASE point me to the right direction? I'd really appreciate it and thanks goes to you

Anyone using S5 from Insights program?

Just received my free white S5 G900A from Samsung Insights. Getting used to it coming from Note 3. I was wondering if there are any fellow S5 owners that got their phone thru this program? If so, have you completed your 6 months? Did you root and have no problems with the app or Sammy telling you to unroot? I had asked if I could root and was told it's prohibited, so wanted to hear from any others who rooted and completed their time. Tia and looking forward to being part of the crowd.

i got my s5 ( t-mobile gs5 ) in august through the insight program
even before installing the app i rooted and flashed a stable rom and then installed the insights application
no issues here till now
i am close to my 6 months and then i will ask them if i can remove the app ( which i can according to the contract )

Seems from feedback I've gotten, I messed up and immediately installed the app and then sent an email asking if I could root. I should have rooted and ROMd before I installed the app and not bothered to ask. My bad.

yes you shouldn't have asked them

has anyone here with t-mobile got the survey recently and got a phone? Thanks

Just a note for anyone past or nearing the end of their 6 month commitment. Mine was up in December and I expected to hear something from them about being done, but didn't. So today I inquired.
Basically the deal is this: when your 6 months is up I'm sure they'd love you to keep providing data. If you want to uninstall the app after your 6 months, email them and they will give you an exit survey and the code you need to uninstall it, but as long as you stay active (keep the app running) you will remain eligible for any surveys and associated giveaways they send out, so there is a little incentive to keep it.

exactly
this is what i got today
" If you prefer to have the application removed, we can send you an exit survey which will have the application removal instructions and the passcode. Please note, only those who remain active in the program will continue to receive surveys throughout the year for upgrades or accessory offers. "
i think ill stay by keeping the app ..though i keep changing the ROMS
the problem is when i tried a cm12 rom with android 5.0 - flashed the insights app and restored through titanium - the insight freezes when i try to open
i guess its not yet compatible with lollipop
so i had to revert it back to the 4.4 rom

I received a white S5 as well 2 weeks ago. I rooted the phone via towelroot immediately then I installed safestrap then backed the phone up. I installed the Insights app the next day and it's been running flawlessly ever since. I haven't flashed any rims yet so I'm stock odexed but I did add xposed with a couple mods. So far so good and not a peep from Sammy.

Email [email protected] and tell them you're interested in the program. They'll email back for a referral. That's where it gets tricky. More requests for referrals than there are available. I gave out 18 before Samsung told me to stop.

Does anyone have a referral? I finally got my email asking for one to be accepted but I need a referral. Thanks!

How I got mine was looking thru the thread that is in Note 3 general and pmd a couple fellas til one gave me his info. I got lucky I believe. I know there are more people in this program, just finding the one to give the info is hard. Wish I could help. ?

I got a Galaxy S5 from them back in December and I just got a Galaxy Tab S 8.4 i from them this month to use with my smart TV.

I just got mine today. Not activated yet. Its for ATT but i am not sure if its locked or unlocked since it came in the Samsung box and not the Att box.
Hows the battery life on this ? I used to have Note 3.
Is it safe to root i know the contract says its prohibited but if it safe do you guys know the best rom from Att S5

DO NOT INSTALL THE APP until you've made the choice to root and rom or not. Battery life on stock was s#*t for me before changing roms. 5 hours 100% to 30% with 2 hours sot. Now, most days it's lasting all day. I still miss my Note 3 and will be going back as soon as contact here is up. If it's branded AT&T, it's bootloader locked.
