I have my htc hd2 (t8585) unlocked version from cyprus. The phone is having many freezing issues. What can i do??
I am using official ROM (ELL)
I have also posted a video on youtube:
youtube.com/watch?v=y6Lyspkn_Gc
Can you be more specific on the freezing .. do you phone freezes at the lock screen? or while working with an application?
Its good to know what handling you were doing in what application when it causes to freeze.
ATM there is a problem with twitter.com accounts. It also causes freezes on the phone
No, my phone won't freeze if i am using it! It will freeze only if i leave it at stand by mode for longer that approx. 30 minutes - 1 hour.
Additionally sometimes it starts from the first soft reset, but some other times it takes much longer to switch on!
Hi. I got this problem for quite sometime and am so used to taking out and putting back and taking out and putting back the batt.
But now I have another prob: my ringtone suddenly went soft and I now have to keep myself alert all the time to see if there's any incoming call or SMS.
I would like to do a hard reset but the question is: will it set my phone back to the stock ROM or still retain the updated version - 1.66.707.1?
Thanks in advance.
I noticed that after using this rom for a few days my phone doesn't auto-rotate... nor does the G-Sensor work at all.
I go into Settings>Display>Horizontal Calibration, and the ball doesn't move from the center of the circle no matter where I turn the phone... it just stays there... even after I press "Calibrate" and it says it's calibrated but nothing happens..
It's weird... this has never happened to me on any ROM and am hoping that it isn't broken... don't see how. I didn't install any mods I haven't installed before and it always worked (yes I deleted cache partition and delvik-cache).
Would anyone know why it might not be working at all? Like what is the service or whatever that controls the g sensor specifically?
I am running simply galaxy 2.7.2 xe. It was working before but then decided to stop... help is greatly appreciated.
I have the same exact problem on my HTC Touch Pro2 (ATT) with the Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM installed.
The g-sensor works fine after you first boot up, and then completely stops working at some random interval. After this occurs, trying to calibrate the sensor results in the two animated levels freezing after twitching a bit. This obviously does not fix the problem.
I even tried using sktools to restart the g-sensor driver. The driver will apparently stop, but will not restart.
Honestly, I wouldn't mind rebooting this damn thing every time but it also freezes for like 15 minutes after I restart it. If you hit the power button to put the phone to sleep right after booting up, it will remain asleep and not respond to anything for almost a half hour. Sometimes calling it will wake it up though... and then it freezes again when you put it to sleep if it's within 20 minutes of boot up. The service process (services.exe) and manila show high CPU usage during this time.
Also the notification manager does not start up automatically; its service needs to be started manually each time. Setting it to manual does not fix anything.

Hi There!
I am running Stock Galaxy SII and lately maybe 1-2 times a day my phone switches off. I am not sure why? How can I troubleshoot this? Are logs kept on the device as to the reason for shutdowns?
It happen me too with a stock rom when i tryed to move some applications from the phone memory to the SD (using the setting menu).
What i understood is that if you move appications that was auto installed in the phone memory, the phone itself start to be crazy and do random power off.
Now i flashed a custom rom and reinstalled all applications. I let applications to install automatically in the default memory storage position (sometime is the SD and sometime is the phone memory, it depend if the application itself is designed to work with the Frojo android version or not).
I noticed that now the phone stopped to do random power off so, i presume, the problem is fixed.
Hope this will help you too.
Hello!
My problem: I push the power button short on my Galaxy S2 to go sleep mode. The screen is goes black, the phone went sleep mode. I leave it on the table and I see the display is light up for 1-2 seconds and then off. This happening for 4-5 times then the sleeping continues for a long period.
What causes this problem? What can I do against it?
I've ben uninstalled almost all later installed programs, stay only stock apps +Titanium Backup, SPB Shell 3D, Dropbox, iGO, Adobe Reader, LogMeIn and Superuser (packaged in DoomLord's Easy rooting toolkit - that I've ben used to rooting my phone). Factory unlocked, rooted phone. All mobile data connection disabled - aviabled network connections are wifi and USB. I'm not using live wallpaper.
I think one of the apps try connectint to internet at this time, because when I turn on the wifi I get an application advise.
Android version: 2.3.4 Gingerbread
Build: GINGERBREAD.XWKI4
Any solution, suggestion?
(sorry my bad english)

Same problem here. Sometimes when i put the phone to sleep, after a short period of time the screen turns on, and stays so until i put it again to sleep or wait until the timer (i use 15 seconds here) to power the screen off. This happens with or without wifi/3g so i think that's not a problem with an app trying to access internet.
Other annoying issue is when i'm charging the phone, sometimes when it reaches 100%, the screen turns on to say that's full charged, and continues on like.... forever. I noticed that when i put the phone to charge before sleeping and mornings when i go take the phone off the charge, the screen is already on for a long time.
Im using Stock Frankestein ROM 2.3.6 XWKK5 with CF "stock" root Kernel, with out Set CPU or any other Governor. Also using stock launcher.

i have a similar issue , opened a thread here :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1405606
also added logcat , you can see the process thats trying to run multiple times , and wont stop until i press something .
this is very bad .if this happens at night , your phone might stay with screen on for hours , with the same image , the image will burn onto the screen eventually .
i'm running 2.3.6 KK5, siyah kernel , go launcher ,pattern lockscreen .
Thank you for hints guys!
I think I find it! I use SPB Shell 3D launcher. In the settings of this app checked the 'using mobile data network to download weather informations' (or something like). I unchecked it and this effect was gone - at least last evening... Now I using wifi and reinstalled all applications like before and now no ads.
But this means I think well - an application try to access internet (with GSM data connection) but the service provider denied, beause I've no subscribe.
So I advocate for you to search something settings like this in your apps.
i have that issue as well..i tried few different roms and kernels but no luck. so its hardware issue i think.. .
Used to happen to me a lot,until i installed Go launcher and Go locker.I know its not exactly a solution but at least its working,plus anything else than the stock samsung lock screen is soooo much better.
And the end... Uninstall all apps which are using ads whit AirPush technology. How do you know which are they? The AirPush Detector helps you find them - search on Google Play it's free!
Thanks for your attention!

Hey guys,
I know there has been a couple of posts like this that I have found through searching but none have actually found a solution, so instead of resurrecting a old thread I thought I would start a new one.
Basically I am having some issues with my new pebble blue (yey) S3 . I have found that sometimes when the phone is sleeping when I press the power button to bring it out of sleep the lock screen begins to hang. This is followed by a number of different things, the screen either glitches for a bit and then begins to work or it stays locked and needs a battery pull. As well as this I've found that randomly either when charging or not and the phone is sleeping it simply becomes unresponsive, staying on a black screen and needing a battery pull to fix (this has only occured a few times, the hanging lock screen occurs quite often).
I have done some searching and found little in the way of a solution or what the problem is, however I have found that when the lock screen hangs -if it begins to work again after glitching out the 'WIFI connected to ****' appears at the bottom of the screen. Anyway if anyone has any ideas or also recieves this problem I would really appreciate some help as it's driving me crazy and I'm unsure if it is a common S3 bug or a faulty handset, in which case I have limited time to RMA.
Cheers in advance
Hmm, sounds like a faulty phone to me. Try taking it back to get it exchanged for onother one. S3 was built to fly not crawl.
You'll want to go through a process of elimination to figure out when might be causing it.
Something you can try and test with (one at a time)
-turn on airplane mode
-turn off live wallpaper
-shut down all running tasks
-change your lock screen security method
-limit the number of widgets running on all the screens
-reduce the number of active screens
Probably other things you can try to pull out of the equation, but thats a good start
After looking up dial-a-phones returns policy it would seem that I have 28 days to return if the handset is faulty, so this atleast gives me some breathing room to try out any suggestions for fixes. I will begin to eliminate each of the suggested items above however as the lock screen problem is intermittent it make take a day so actually see if it has had an effect, which is annoying at the least.
On another note a numberupted of people are stating high battery life on their devices however mine doesn't seem to be as good and I do have power saving on as well as nfc etc. turned off. This makes me believe my handset could have a fault, but tbf I haven't allowed for a discharge to 5% and the recharging to 100% which I heare allows for optimisation of the battery.
EDIT**** I have changed the lock screen previously and found it had no effect on the problem and I do not have a live wallpaper in use.
Phone Freezing after reboot and auto wifi signal found on.
Same here, been happening the last few days after I installed Avast. Also, turning off and on the auto on wifi seemed to replicate the problem.
The phone will boot to the lock screen and freeze a bit, and sometimes the news ticker freezes, and then after unlocked, I try to turn off wifi signal has been found on the notification dropdown and then tries to auto connect to wifi, the phone will freeze up if I dont turn it off in time.
Once the auto wifi connect is off and reboots, then the phone will keep glitching up until it catches up processing alot of processes it was trying to do for about 1/2 hr. Also, if phone freezes up for too long, like after trying too many time of unlocking the screen while freezing up, the phone gets stuck at the lock screen and the phone almost overheated, in an area right below the battery. I had to pull the battery out to cool it off.
It seems to be a glitch in the auto wifi, especially if alot of resources are being used. Once Avast was on my phone about 1.5GB RAM is being used sometimes and since has really slowed the phone down. Going uninstall alot of apps.

Same problem.
No problem if Wifi is switched off prior to sleep.
No problem if Wifi connection is still available.
Problem to lockscreen if Wifi connection is broken (move away from connected router).
Any suggestion?

Exactly the same here. Driving me crazy. I did root the phone using the Samsung Galaxy S3 Toolkit. I don't know if the problem also exists on non rooted devices.
S3 black screen after unlocking
Has there anyone experience S3's screen went on black? I have pebble blue S3 - GT-I9300. Cases when unlocking, answering an incoming call or attempting to turn off an
alarm? Mine happens when after unlocking the screen then it goes black and screen becomes unresponsive. It happens intermittently and even after 3 times of
reprogramming. I am now going to have it replaced. I am having a lot of troubles -- it exits on its own when im reading or composing an SMS; files were deleted after
restarting the unit, and an app opens up even not touching the scree. This is expensive and I am paying a lot just to experience this king of inconvenience.

I also rooted my S3 a few days ago (with the S3 toolkit), and have had lots of problems with unresponsive lockscreens (I use PIN, because of exchange connection). It takes a few seconds or maybe up to as long a minute before I'm able to punch in the PIN-numbers. Before this the screen lights up but does not respond to input.
But the WiFi-connection issue might be what is the triggering factor, because after a boot it wotks just fine for several hours, if I'm not moving out of my current WiFi zone. First I thought it was either Secure Settings or Tasker that made my device lock up in this matter, but now as they are both uninstalled, the problem still occurs.
Are you running some kind of custom rom, or just the latest stock ROM, but rooted?

Just the latest stock ROM but rooted. I've found out that turning off the wifi power safe mode fixes the problem for me. To do this:
- In the dailer enter *#0011#
- Press the menu key
- Select wifi
- Press the on/off button.
The wifi power safe mode will however be turned on during boot. So rebooting will set it back on.
*#0011# seems does the trick. But is annoying had to do this every time after power off (change battery, change Sim, flying).... Anyway to keep the setting?
I am also on stock Rom and rooted. Interested to know any non-rooted phone got this problem?
BTW. I found a quick (at least quicker than pull the battery) way to get out of the forzen lock screen (sometimes forgot to do the 0011 trick): press the power button (screen will Dim instead of OFF), then hold the home button for few seconds, as soon as you see the "menu" and "back" button lit up, the lock is un-freeze...
A permanent solution is appreciated for such an advance phone....

Not that I know of.
Problem solved. For me anyway. Hope works for all of you having the same trouble.
My trouble begin with recent upgrade to LH3. My S3 was rooted by S3 toolkit v2.0. CWM installed was v4 something.
I un-rooted the phone. Uninstalled S3 toolkit v2.0. Re-installed the S3 Toolkit v5.0. Rooted the phone again (CWM become v6....).
I do not know it was CWM version caused the trouble or not. But my S3 is ok now.
I got it on my non-rooted phone, any additional solutions/suggestions? or service?
I found solution for problem . And my phone is working well. I downloaded rom file android 4.1.2 and flash my phone
JB 4.1.1 caused these WiFi issues on my phone

Exact opposite for me...never had the problem then since loading stock JB 4.1.1 with root I get lockups or freezes whenever WiFi is turned off or I leave my router's range. As soon as I disconnect from WiFi the whole phone freezes.
The *#0010# also locks up the phone when I turn off the WiFi power saving feature.
None of this happened before JB...and I replaced my phone with week via warranty due to this and the new phone does the exact same thing as soon as I upgraded to JB with root.
Any ideas?
Black screen / random reboot solution
Hi All,
I've had the black screen / random reboot issue for a few days. The only way to restore functionality on black screen lockup was to remove the battery.
I tried changing to Chrome browser and stopping the stock browser as suggested in some threads but it kept crashing.
I searched everywhere and most threads suggest a dodgy motherboard.
For me the issue was related to either a single PDF download via the stock browser or the fact I had quite alot of saved PDF files on my phone (S3 Stock firmware I9300XXELLA)
After deleting all the files listed in Internet downloads (look for Downloads with a green arrow Icon in apps) my trusty S3 has returned to normal. No black screen lockups, no hanging, runs like a dream!
I appreciate this may not solve everyones black sceeen issues but I haven't found any other thread with this solution. Hope it works for you.
Thanks,
Giz.

Thanks for the tip...
Was this happening on JB for you? You mention stock firmware (not familiar with I9300)...so I am guessing it was ICS.
For me the issues are with JB and I had no files at all in the Downloads folder after a certain point when I wiped / formatted the SDCard...so I do not think my lockups were related to PDFs. But I did (and still do) have a ton of music and a lot of movies on the External MicroSD Card....and quite a few custom notification and ringtone MP3s on the Internal SDCard. Next time I load JB I will run it a few days with none of this media loaded....

This is on JB 4.1.2, Phone had been updated to 4.1.2 for about a month. The issues started after a pdf download. Once all pdf's were deleted the handset works perfectly.
