Is anyone else having this problem. I restored my previous messages using Samsung's Smartswitch as I always do and one of the thread messages I have with a very close friend is taking a long time to load. On screen kb also takes a long time to load. I've tried several DOK2 roms and they all act the same way. But if I go back to DOG1 roms and restore SMS, there's no issue.
Can you really go back to DOGS after updating to DOK2? the lag on DOK2 is everywhere, it's even happening in TWRP RECOVERY

I've been able to go back and forth flashing via TWRP or restoring form an old back up. The modem and bootloader will have to stay as DOK2. Unfortunately, there is no way to go revert bootloader. DOK2 is way smoother overall less stutter. This is how our note should've been. The only lag I have is what I mentioned. 1 sms thread with 1 contact.
I think you have a totally different issue and is not rom related if you are also having lag issue in TWRP. Have you tried odin the new DOK2 firmware?

I can confirm having the same problem with DOK2 stock messenger running laggy with large threads. I've changed from using the stock messenger to YAATA which is as fast as Samsung's previous stock messengers AND has a developer here on XDA.

I'd like to flash to Cog 3.04 directly if possible without Odin'ing back to 2.1. Is it ok to flash directly to 3.04 and if so, what the best way to wipe everything first to start form as blank a state as possible? I'm without a windows PC right now...
Thanks!
hate to bump but if anyone can provide a quick answer... thx.
I flashed 3.04 over 2b8 without any problem.....
You can try that but no guarantee that it will work.you may run into problems and have to flash back to odin then you will be sol with out a computer

You should be fine flashing from one version to another. If you enabled lagfix I'd disable that first, and to be on the safe side do a CWM backup, but other than that you should be fine. I've been flashing another ROM back and forth without going stock many times without issue.
You can go and flash custom ROMs on top of each other and it might work, but don't be surprised if you boot into Cog 3.04 and have to deal with a bunch of force closes or other weird behavior.
I ALWAYS recommend people flash back to stock and Master Clear/GSM Master Reset. That gives you a blank slate to work with. It takes less than 10 minutes, but some just believe that's too much work/time for them.
Your call.
I've never had an issue flashing updates on top of Cognition. I'm pretty sure as long as your lag fix is the same between versions then there should not be any problems.
I flashed serendipity 5.0 over 4.3 last night with no problems. I just disabled lagfix before I did.

Thanks everyone for your helpful input.
Is it possible to master clear without going back to stock? I'd like for everything except the external sdcard to be cleared.
So Bell Canada and Samsung both have terrible technical support.
My phone is i9000m, Bell Canada, running 2.3.3 (UGKG3). It had 2.2 in the box, and I upgraded through kies pretty recently.
Since the upgrade I have a few new problems that I didn't have before:
-GPS, which used to give me useful and reasonably accurate tracks for my walks and bike rides now spits out a bunch of garbage.
-Download mode still works, but recovery mode doesn't.
-Serious power drain under "Android OS." Upwards of 90% in an hour. Goes away if I kill "google services."
Do a factory reset if you haven't done one already. Most of the time that clears up any update bugs...

This did nothing for me except give me the headache of re-installing all my apps (again). Still no recovery mode, shoddy GPS, and crazy battery drain... oh and my bluetooth keyboard no longer pairs? What's up with that!?
Anyone have any other ideas???
New issue:
Market hangs at white screen after starting install on 10th app. Reset sometimes allows installing another one or two, but after that it'll hang again.

If I could find a rom that fills all my needs better than stock 2.2, I'd be all over it. I have a lengthy list of requirements though, and warranty eligibility is in the top 3 (especially if I defenestrate the thing).
Can anybody recommend a rom with bluetooth working for wiimote and keyboards, netflix working smoothly (2.2 doesn't, stock 2.3.3 does), good power consumption, and stability?
In the mean time, I'm still dealing with the other issues outlined in this thread.
Flashing a custom rom would almost definately sort all your problems. As to which rom, you seem perfectly capable of reading. If you are worried about warranty, you can simply flash back to stock...........

For me that`s a last-ditch solution. I`m usually in a hurry when I break a phone and I`d want to be able to just plop it down at the bell booth during the work day, rather than taking it home first and flashing it (assuming it`s not broken beyond that point).
Hi,
I recommend you to try perform a Hard Reset with code *2767*3855# in dialer ( formats also your internal SD), flash the phone again (better with Odin) with a "standard" version.
Optional make a new Hard Reset (in special if didn't repartition the phone).
After that you can use a custom rom if you want. In past I used DocRambone rom, but now I preffer S.U.R.F.A.C.E. rom with Hardcore kernel and GO Launcher. GPS, phone, browser ....running without problems and battery keeps me over 50 h of medium use without GPS.
Tried hard reset and flashing the same stock 2.3.3 UGKG3 rom. No change. Still can't get into recovery mode, still crap gps, still 10 second lag between button press and screen on, still crazy battery drain.
Rolled back to 2.2, everything works except recovery mode and having weird problems with market imagining that I have apps I've never even looked at before and difficulty downloading. Market cache clear doesn't help. Hard reset doesn't help.
Upgraded through kies to UGKG3 again. Same problems as before, but market works at least. If no solutions available today, I'm taking it to Bell for service and maybe exchange. If that doesn't resolve I'll flash a custom rom.

GPS borked entirely this time. Gets a fix, but the fix doesn't follow me. If I run My Tracks, it just stays in a 10 meter area while I walk in a 4km circle away from and back to that area.

Phone was sent in for repairs and returned to me this morning. GPS still broken (completely, no signal period). Everything else seems fine.
the issues you are having suggest to me the problem is with the KG3 stock rom.
Before getting even more frustrated with both your phone and Bell, I would advocate:
1. do a complete phone clean with sd card reformat (sent you a pm with a link)
2. flash the stock JVR pda in odin and also flash the KG3 modem and CSC at the same time
3. you are then still on stock Samsung, official firmware and within warranty even if that firmware has yet to be released in Canada
4. then if you want you can still flash a custom JVR kernel and a custom JVR rom if you want to improve performance and/or alter features beyond stock

Thanks for your help. I'll look into it.
Before I do that, do you or anyone else have the stock settings under *#*#3214789650#*#* (AngryGPS)??? The settings for the SUPL Settings section are all BLANK!!! I can only assume the rest of the settings in AngryGPS are too. That seems bad.
Hi all,
I've been unable to find a post about this for quite some time so I decided to make a threat about it.
I have a recurring problem with my captivate. Usually after about 2 weeks of using a ROM my phone will have 2 issues pop up simultaneously. They seem to always happen together. It seems to happen after my phone shuts off and will not turn back on until I battery pull. Once I do that I am presented with these two issues:
1.) When I try and toggle Wifi it attempts to then simply says "error" underneath it. I have found a few threads about this but no answers
2.) Upon installation OR restoration of any app with Titanium Backup my phone does a soft reboot (goes to spinning CM logo or for ICS goes to the multicolored squares flying around).
Edit: On the newest MIUI it now says "insufficient storage available" instead of rebooting when I try to install an app after the issues crop up, wifi "error" is still the same
I've had these same 2 issues occur with CM7 Stable, RC, and many nightlies, MIUI, and TeamHacksung's ICS build. I believe it may have happened with cognition too but am not positive.
I do not restore any data with TB. Before each flash I wipe system, cache, dalvik, and do factory reset and still this issue occurs without fail after about 2 weeks on any ROM and the only fix I have is to flash a new one.
Nandroid backups DO fix the problem. If anyone is willing to look through logs or something and see what was different I would be eternally grateful and certainly send you something through PayPal
Any help is greatly appreciated and I am willing to try anything at this point. Thanks!

Nah this is the right place. That's a very strange problem you're having though, and I don't know what the exact solution is, if there even is one for this. The only thing I can suggest is going back to stock, and then reinstalling CM7 or whatever you want

Well happened again on newest MIUI. Gonna go back to stock and start over. I'll update the thread if it does or does not happen again.
Unfortunately after using Odin to go back to stock and rerooting/flashing it happened again on the most current build of MIUI. I'm currently at a loss for what to do. Has anyone heard of or seen anything like this?
Thanks in advance

Just curious, have you tried leaving it stock and seeing if it happens on a pure stock ROM? If so it could be a defect with the phone?
If you flash back to pure stock and the issue doesn't come back, maybe try a custom ROM that's closer to stock, not a CM or MIUI or ICS build. I haven't seen this issue, just trying to suggest some solutions.
I had this same problem with my fascinate. I flashed 1.10.21 MIUI follwed by glitch 13.1. This combination used to work, or so I thought. I flashed back to stock, 1.12.1 then a different package of glitch 13.1 and my wifi started working again. I know the captivates and fascinates are somewhat different, but try this out and see if it works.

I guess I could try that, I just like CM7/MIUI so much. Another thing that happens is many different applications start FCing after the problems all begin.
I tried to restore to a nandroid backup I had made before it happened this time and I received an MD5 mismatch which I believe happened last time I tried to restore...
New info:
I have not realized this before but it seems that I start getting a message that says, "Google Talk Authentication Failed", around the same time. Also FCs happen much more frequently. Is there anything I could be doing to cause this?
New Info
Just going to keep this updated with things I have tried in case anyone ever searches for this that has this issue:
Full format of SD card and odin back to stock did not prevent the issue from cropping up on the DarkKnight3 ROM with Icy Glitch. At this point I can only assume it is somehow hardware relatedl
Hi everyone, first post on this forum.
I have a used Uk Tab, P1000. It came with Stock Gingerbread.
I keep getting freezing on it with different Roms e.g Overcome, Boca, Miui.
this could be in any apparently or even scrolling between screen. A quick press of the power button back to the lock screen will wake it up but it's annoying.
However Cyanogen Mod 7 is stable. No frezzing
I have cleared down all caches and factory reset on installs.
Any thoughts or anyone had similar with a fix?
Thanks
Hi, same thing was happening to me A LOT with standard Gingerbread rom from Kies.
Complete freeze of the screen(touch and capacitive buttons) until new lock+unlock.
So I guess it's not a custom rom problem.
However I do not know what could be the issue.
I 'fixed' it (by that I mean it happens much less frequently now) with Dolphin Companion.
Maybe it is some process in the background?
While i was researching the issue online I found many people complaining about this on forums and whatnot.
Hi
Thanks for the reply.
I wanted to try another ROM (ICS) but when I tried to go back to CM7, the restore failed confused, so I've restocked and back to Overcome 4.01 using the standard instructions. Still still hangs with Dolphin Companion.
Annoying as I don't want to keep restocking. Any ideas how I can identify what the issue is anyone? Seems to hang on anything Internet related e.g Hotmail App and Browsers.
My model of device is GT-P1000. When I got the device it was already rooted on GB. Is it worth restocking with Froyo then GB again?
Where did u see other people complaining - got the URL's?
Thanks
i think it is normal for most phone to 'freeze' that need to reboot. mine too sometimes it freeze when i play game. but if it is too frequent (like my x10 mini pro) then it is somewhat related to hardware. but some believe that by flashing to other rom the problem can be fix for a while.

Ok so I get a brand spankin' new warranty swap and its a N910T3 with 5.1.1 etc. Awesome right? Well not so fast.
I seem to be encountering several strange problems I wanted to see if anyone else had these issues.
First off I started having some issues with the fingerprint scanner. Not reading or scanning as its has been flawless. It occasionally has thrown a "Scanner not working" error and makes me use my backup.
Next occasionally there's some strange lag here and there. I don't mean usual android or sammy lag I mean like something just isn't right lag.
Not sure if the lag is the same but on occasion in the middle of doing something like texting or emailing it will just show the background wallpaper freeze for a few secs and then eventually lock itself.
Also if my phone screen is off and locked and I get some form of notification unlocking the phone acts strange.
All of the issues seem to be more annoying then anything. I have not had any kind of FC at all just pauses and freezes and lags.
This is night and day from my old phone that I used for almost a year. I am just trying to find out if this is perhaps a hardware defect or bugs in this Android version. I am kind of hoping its bugs this phone is squeaky new and it would be a shame to lose this shiny new phone for a old refurb.
Has anyone experienced any issues with their N910T3 while on the latest stock?

That looks exactly like a typical SystemUI FC... (without the FC message in your case) I guess you are not rooted right? If you are... try wiping Data/Cache/Dalvik x3 via TWRP, and Odin the latest stock firmware... DOG1 ... If you are not rooted... simply reset to factory and do the same... Odin DOG1. and re-test your Note 4... if problem persist... then you might have a Real Hardware issue.

I am not rooted and I have never rooted yet. I was considering it just to test how it was. So that means I have not been able to wipe the Dalvik. Does that get wiped when I Odin? I did indeed tried Odining the DOG1 a few times and still the same results. I am thinking it was hardware but wasn't sure. Do you have a T3? Any problems at all on stock?
It seems its an issue to try to obtain another T3 as now they still have some old regular N910T refurbs back in stock. Plus the IMEI still just populate with "Note 4" and do not differentiate between the two.
Thanks for the reply.
I also got a N910T3 as warranty replacement and had the same issues on non-rooted phone.
Rooted the phone installed custom rom and all those issues gone. Your best best is to root the phone and install custom 5.1.1. ROM

Ya, I just did that. Flashed Twrp, Rooted, and then Wiped the dalvik and cache.. Seems stock now is running better. Strange.
What rom and kernel are you on? Sucks that this is so different then the N910T.
Anyone else?

I kinda wonder of one of the partitions are messed up. Anyone here familiar with using Odin to erase the band and load the FW back? It could be hardware I guess but if it's just some software glitch I hope I can just figure it out. It's odd that some people experience the same problems and some dont.
