Re: Droid Eris Issue/s!
I'm not too sure what this means of how I can figure out what or how to get a log file.
My phone has been doing a random slide all the way to the left. no matter what Rom I'm running. After a few hours my Eris, running 1.5 from jcase, and edited by k.
- Screen moves left
- fixs when I restart
- happened again after a few how's of phone on standby or playing.
- Also OS slow down.
- this has been on going for 3 days.
- wiped, everything.
-Flashed using same Rom, and 3 others. (Followed flash Rom steps.)
- Still same problem.
if anyone can it knows of any info or hoe I can make this more clear, I thank you.

sounds like a problem with the phone itself such as maybe a trackball issue. go to verizon and see what they say.

i discovered to 2 issues since i upgraded the newer 2.1. (i haven't flashed a custom rom)
one browser randomly closes while using it. my wife went to macy's website and it closed. no force close or anything.
two - google maps works, but if i i upgrade. every time i open the app a few seconds later it gives me a force close dialog box....

Just to let you know my wife was having similar problems with screen going left. I have seen some people just have it while on a charger but we had another problem the phone would randomly die at various charge levels and sometimes not boot back up without plugging the charger in. We were able to get a warranty replacement on the battery and the issue with screen scroll to the left has ceased.

thank you everyone for the feedback. I'm going to see what happened with everything. I might just turn this into a project phone. I will try to clean the trackball, and use my other battery. I greatly appreciate the replies.

[Q] Atrix Touchscreen freeze in 2.3.4 build

Does anyone else experience this with the new leaked 2.3.4 HKTW build? Or is it just my Atrix?
Yeah I exp. It as well but I notice my screen becomes in responsive and so do the touch keys. Only the power button and volume rocker work.
I've only experienced this while on a phone call though to be honest. Like when I'm on hold and I'm.checking Facebook or I'm looking something up on the web while on a call. But I definitely think it's a bug in hktw build 2.3.4 cause I beverage had a problem before with it.
I tried looking through the forums and haven't seen any other complaints untilled this one so maybe its just a few of us. Can any one else confirm this or is there a fix some where?

mine works fine...
Happens to mine all the time. Fixes itself after turning the screen off.

when mine freezes even locking phone with the power button and waiting a few seconds to turn it back on doesn't help it still stays un-responsive at the lock screen. I'm actually noticing it happening more and more frequent. or I'm just multi tasking more and more frequent lol idk cant wait for a USA build as apposed to this HKTW build but hey i got to say its definitely pulling me through this month of waiting for it ;P
Mine happened a few times a few days ago...then once the day after, and not since. Been like 4 days now.
i've a cyanogen 7 in my wildfire, and start happens and i dont know why, i've this rom from 3 months and never heard such a thing, hope some one can help fix this.
I've have done a hard reset and nothing
Mine did that already in 2.2 , back then the fix was to lock and unlock the screen. That would always fix the issue, at least until next time. Now in 2.3.4, it still happens, but if I wait 15-20 seconds it usually fixes itself. Looks like Motorola applied some fixes but didn't fix the issue completely.
Bell ATRIX Gobstopper 2.3.4
well guys, i solve the problem for now....
solution:
1º make sure that you have a backup prior to the problem (original stock or other thing), if not you might have to install the room from set one.
2º retrieve you sd card, make a backup of some things that you dont want to lose (like pictures, ring tones, mp3 etc) and leave a folder with a backup that you have, next format sd card in fat32 and put the things that you save (note, dont do all the backup of sd card, like the folders with .com... and android folders etc)
3º go to clockworkmod recovery, by restarting to recovery, wipe all data, like the firs time you install the custom rom, now go to backup and restore and do restore to your backup.
4º Restart and voila, that works for me...i figure that was some app that might cause the problem,(thinking on ndrive 11) im going to test now, but it works.
cheers and post something that might help some one
Gingerbread Problem

[Q] Hello, please help.

Hello.
I'm having problems with my Samsung GT-I9000 ( Galaxy S 1 ), and was hoping I could get some help here.
About 4 maybe 5 months my phone has been having crashes (Is as close as I can explain them)
This is what happens:
- Talking to somebody on Whatsapp (for example, but it also crashed on me while playing games, and even when calling)
- I lock the screen and lay the phone down
- After about 2-3 seconds, the screen lights up. And shows me the conversation but does not respond
- Phone goes black for about 5 seconds
- Light vibration
- Screen shows the lock screen, loads my background and scans for media
This happens randomly about 5-10 times a day now. (Depending on how much I use the phone)
It also sometimes just turns off without any animation or sound.
What have I tried:
I first thought it was the ROM, I'm sorry if I make mistakes here but I'm a noob.
The ROM was put on there by a friend of mine, it was called Darky's ROM.
I tried to put a differed ROM on it, but the tutorials failed on me and I killed the phone. Not the "Black screen of death" but beyond that point. It wouldn't even turn on anymore.
Then I send it back to the provider, they took 2 weeks to fix it and I had my phone back. I think they put the default ROM on it but I'm not sure.
Anyhow, this did not fix the problem. As soon as I had my phone back from repair, it still crashed.
I have also updated the phone with Samsung Kies, as shown in attachment 1
Now I don't know if I should send it back again, since they couldn't fix it in the first place, or to just live with it.
The phone's "About phone" page is attachment 2
Thanks everybody for taking the time to look into this.
It's the default ROM they put on again.
I have a friend with the same phone and her's is acting so slowly for such powerful device!
Try setting up a new ROM. I know it's hard, but it's better with the no-lag fix etc...
i heard Darky's Rom is really good, but I bet there are other ROMs who are amazing.
Tutorials are kinda hard to follow for that device, but you can do it
But putting a new ROM on it didn't help.
I can believe the default slows it down, but this problem started on the Darky's rom, and is also still happening with the default.
Is not so difficult, you can change a ROM in like 10min. Try to update your phone to ICS, I'm using ICSSGS and it's blazing fast

Thanks I missed that one.
And thanks Dante for trying to help, but as I said before, changing the ROM did not help, nor updating it.
Anybody else any ideas?
...anyone?

[Q] phone repeatedally being hacked or something

Ok so first off I have a factory HTC one m7 with Verizon that's running the new kit Kat is. I haven't done anything to it because I don't know how. however I'm on my 7th soon to be 8th one from Verizon in less then 3 months.I've went rounds with Verizon & HTC & know one has a clue.
the list of symptoms are as follows:
1.hangs up & turns on airplane mode in the middle of calls.
2.Gets super hot sending a text or being on fb.
3.opens apps & closes them by itself.
4.calls other numbers then the number dialed.
5.turns on developer options.
6.changes date & time settings.
7.still does all this in safe mode.
8.& factory reset doesn't change a thing other then erase all my stuff.
9.I've changed the SIM & the phone & the Gmail @ the same time doesn't stop it.
10. & my battery not only jumps around but loses battery when it's turned off.
11.all my songs & pics just disappear all the time.along with pics showing up that I've never seen.
So if anyone has any ideas they would be insanely appreciated cuz now my tablets doing the same stuff.
I'm thinking either a gms hack or the newly discovered oma dm hack or a man in the middle hack.after 7 phones I'm doing my own research.
but plz any experts on here or with this phone plz help.& if this is in the wrong place can someone plz put it where it needs to be. thank u in advance.

Hey Bud,
Personally, I think you should try install a custom rom if you have a recovery installed? If you don't have a recovery installed, do it then install a custom rom like Cyanogenmod. See if that fixes your issue.

"Tap to speak" box won't close or go away

Hi guys,
I hope that this is the proper forum, if not please direct me to the correct one.
I am currently using a Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6, non-rooted.
My problem started about 48 hours ago while I was voice dictating a test message.
I was doing my regular texting with the SwiftKey keyboard microphone (problem also replicates with the Samsung Keyboard as well) and the box at the bottom of the screen would not go away. I tried to X it out, hit the back button and the home button but nothing gets rid of it other than restarting the phone.
This all seemed to start happening after the Google App update.
I rolled back to the old version and it seemed to work fine. Last night, it updated itself again and problem was back.
I have included an image of what I am talking about.
If anyone has any suggestions, I would be very appreciative!
Thanks
Mikeinstlouis
I have to same issue that just happened and same as the screenshot.
Same issue...
This is so freaking ridiculous! A Google update that does this crap?!
I too own a S6 Edge Verizon 128GB and I noticed a couple of things.
If you bring up text to speak and then power off your phone.. Once you come back... you have locked it (Until restart)
I tried the following...
1) Reset the Dalvik Cache .. No luck.
2) tried force closing TTS and samsung text to speech.. no go.
3) Uninstalling latest update to the high quality voice. .. No Go.
4) Tried holding both buttons at the Same Time... No go..
5) For quibs and giggles.. Held down the close "X" for 5 whole minutes.
********************************************
What I think is going on is a time out error in the code.
So how i am able to get around it RARELY is..
Bring it up with the microphone button
Say what I need to say then hit the X to close it as FAST AS I CAN!!
I know that with all of our phone hackers, crackers and experts that we can ALL reach a Fix on this.
Damn Google...

One way I found that I can close it is by opening the menu that has active apps, then going to RAM, next turn the phone on its side (<--- yes do that), then hit clear memory a few times. And done its gone.
Thanks! That worked on my Sprint S4! (restarting phone has also worked for me, but this is easier.)
After holding down Home button to open the menu that has active apps, the options were still covered by the text to speak box. So I had to FIRST turn phone on its side to make visible the pie chart icon on bottom left, THEN then going to RAM tab and hiting clear memory a few times. When I turned it back to portait orientation, the text to speak box was gone. Thanks!
This has been happening to me all day long. so frustrating. I am also not the tech savy one in the house and hubby is not around. So thanks for the quick answer to get rid of it until he can uninstall the new update. Thanks
What is the pie chart menu option? What is the RAM tab? And will just be a little easier for Google to fix this? Lol
same problem here
Galaxy S6, same problem, started last night (September 24, 2015) . I do know that some updates were performed last night, not sure what. How do I uninstall the update? Which one is it? Help! I use voice typing constantly, and my phone is a brick when this thing locks up. It covers all my buttons. "Restart" doesn't clear it, I have to totally power off and back on. Right now, I have disable my voice key on my keyboard so that I don't accidentally touch it while waiting for solution.
Me too - just started today after some updates yesterday.
Same here....has anyone responded with a fix yet??
THANKS!
Glad it's not just me and my Note 3, but where does google get off sending out this kind of crap? It's enough to drive me to a windows phone.
Having the same issue only way I can get ride of it is to turn off my phone
same issue on moto droid mini; have to turn off phone too! poor QA google!!!!!
Me too. Galaxy S4. Have to shut the phone down and restart it to resolve the issue.
Piece of crap
Note 4 same problem started on the 24th
Same issue, Note 4
Same issue, Samsung Note 4.
Yep me too Verizon Galaxy s6

Randomly Turning Off? (LineageOS 14.1)

After switching to LineageOS 14.1, my Samsung S3 i9300 randomly turns off. Not a proper shutdown, screen just goes black.
Happened 7 times in 2 days so far, first time while I was tinkering with the settings, second time while I was swiping to another page in Nova Launcher, third time while I was asleep last night, woke up and discovered my phone was off. The other shutdowns happened while the phone was locked.
The device does not shut down completely. I can see the Samsung Led flashing for the message notifications. Just the display turns off. I have to go into recovery mode and reboot the system from there to get the display working again.
I came from the stock ROM. It started immediately after flashing Lineage.
If this happens on a stock rom, it is probably a hardware issue.

Thank you for your reply, but this does not happen on the stock rom.
It's definitely good that this doesn't happen in stock.
Sounds like a incompatibility between the phone and rom. Have you tried earlier or later versions of lineage?
All custom roms are considered beta. You will encounter issues. The issues should be in a list on the website/dev forum for the developers.
Beamed in by telepathy
I can also confirm this on the latest lineageos nightly update to date. It's as if phone is on standby/sleep and no way to wake it up without rebooting the phone by holding down the power button until phone restarts. I don't need to go into recovery like OP. Anyone else?
Are we the only ones experiencing this issue? Any help would be appreciated.

I'm feeling bad for you guys. Everyone should get the same beautiful LOS experience.
Thank you @Gizmotech for the last_kmsg. I think that you removed the battery to be able to reboot your phone. If you received a notification (sometimes you will receive it but it will freeze before letting you know that you got a notification) then the kernel will freeze. If the kernel is freezing it's because of root or a failed attempt to remove root (even if it said that it was a successful removal). It's very simple: you get a notification and it freezes. Maybe it will give a sound and the LED light maybe not. What's sure is that the kernel will freeze. Lastest SuperSU has this issue fixed. If you want it working then dirty flash latest build again. Tell me if the issue was fixed and avoid root until that time. After you'll tell me the results you can flash latest SuperSU and tell me again what happened. Do not remove root. This is always a dangerous thing.

Providing the last_kmsg will help Simon to find a solution. If you only complain about this issue then it won't be solved. Next time make sure to include last_kmsg.

Really? Do you know what beta means? I'm sure that you don't. Beta means that it is not really stable (80% or less of the things are working) while stable means that 95% of the things are working. This explains why LOS 14.1 for S6 was considered stable: because everything was working. Also that issues are already listed in the forums.

The problem is the rom or kernel. It happens to all custom roms and kernels on the s3. No-one has found the source of the problem.
Everything custom is beta even if it is considered stable. Beta means "not final". Unless you see a rom with "final" on it then you'll encounter issues at some point.
The only truly final product if you want root is stock rom rooted. If you flash a kernel you'll get the same problem.
