When I was attempting to enable sideloading with root explorer and sqlight I noticed something in the data/data/android.providers.settings(or something like that)/dbsettings.db( copy and paste this to sd card, then open with sqlight). Then after opened tap on secure. Then I noticed here there is about 3 throttle settings 1 was throttle threshold and then 2 more something like throttle minimal or throttle maximum. My question is can we change these values to if not disable throttling just make it not a concern( like raise threshold to where it wont be crossed,if that's how it works)? And also how to get it to stick without sending your phone into a boot loop? That's what happened to mine when I tried to enable sideloading but I know it can be done because I've seen tutorials and people who have done it as well as many other things on phone w/ root explorer.
P.S. Not a noon but by no means a pro so go easy on me if this is beyond dumb question.

As I have admitted in the past, Im far from the smartest on this kind of stuff. But I see where he's at and I see the values he's talking about. What could happen if we change them???

I have been noticing that ever since I got my refurbished fascinate (to fix 3g issues) every time I get a call I get a phone app poke lock. The exact line from the dumpsys Power is
poke lock 'PhoneApp': POKE_LOCK_IGNORE_CHEEK_EVENTS
And that's as far as my knowledge takes me. the only way I know to clear it is to reboot and that sucks to do after every call. Can anybody help me?
Thats actually a setting In your phone to ensure the phone doesn't lock as your in call....apparently someone who owned it before you set it, and your carrier got to lazy to update full settings.....
Ill find info on fix, however sure fire way to fix, is flash a new kernel or simply go to Settings+ Factory data reset.....
Be advised obviously this will wipe your entire phone to scratch....backup your contacts, and as a final disclaimer this is about 90% to work...
Best of luck!!

This problem plagues me from com rom to cm7, otb to pbj. When I forget to reboot, it eats my battery alive, not to mention driving me nuts

Maybe
Well i think i found you solution, ive NEVER dealt with this issue so im not 100% sure but i am a web developer and a professional coder, so it does seem like a great place to start,
You will need Root explorer and head on over and find the file
libs/ui/Input Dispatcher.cpp
from there the simplest way i would think is to move this file onto your computer, and edit the coding as the link below (and where i got this information) describes.
http://gitorious.org/rowboat/frameworks-base/commit/a87ea46/diffs
To open and edit the CPP file it varies on what system your computer runs.....
Mac:

PC:

Linux:

Now, i am a bit tired, so if i have read this alllll backwards and that actually tell you how to get to the problem you ALREADY have lol then, im at a lost! I'll look more and more into this for you and hopefully get you more and more detail till its fixed!
Now I know I'm up pretty early for a Saturday, but I can't for the life of me find
/libs/ui/inputdispatcher.cpp
with root explorer searching or just exploring around. I have a couple folders named "lib" (one in the root directory, one in /system, plus app files), but for the life of me I cannot find a ui subfolder. Anyody? Am I blind or do I just need some more sleep?
I get this same poke lock so I am interested to see if this is something that shouldn't be happening.

Ok
Mk sorry ive took so long to come back around, i keep mighty busy with my 5 month old, gimme a few more minutes to quest my phone and find it, then ill give both of yall my best and final answer lol
EDIT-
OOOOOk Melon, your first post you told me what dumpsys power is telling you poke lock 'PhoneApp': POKE_LOCK_IGNORE_CHEEK_EVENTS
HOWEVER if you look RIGHT above it, you will see "mPokeLocks.size=1:" Now we need to get that 1 to a 0, however i havent found a positive fix to this, alteast i now know why your situation is occuring, please be patient im trying to see how to edit that file to "0"
EDIT EDIT-
And again, i just spent an hour looking into this deeper and deeper, and this is allll i can tell you
1. Its a glitch in gingerbread
2. What i said in the first edit stands true, you must get that "1" to a "0"
3. I've got into everything from busybox, down to the files its self, yes i've found the appropriate files, but not sure how to edit them
4. Im running a Full EC09 2.3.3 i know you said you have flashed and went from every ROM however i can't seem to see why flashing through an outside source (not on your phone) like using Odin and taking the file found here http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/fascinate/8081-gingerbread-fascinate-release-thread.html (mine) will not erase and clear that setting with a new system update.
5. Im really about to lose my mind at how deep this rabbit hole is going for this (what seems to be) a simple fix!!!
Final thoughts, even if you have done it 500 times, go get Odin, download the kernel from the link about and click start! (after putting your phone in download mode obviously lol) and if that just doesnt do it, i really have no other clue!!!!
I'm not against trying this, but I'm currently running com rom 2.1 and still having the issue. Would flashing this ruin any frameworks? Also, I don't know if I care to jump to EC09 and all of it's sd frying badassery
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
Agreed on frying the sd, it did mine! but i back up my stuff, as far as mixing signals and messing with the frameworks, i'd really advise NOT to flash it as i have no clue on that and i wouldnt want to completely render your phone useless!
phew, i mean theres your flip of a coin, i've read atleast 5 other forums of people having the same issue and the best result is to do a killall -9 com.android.phone, but that only fixes until the next call comes in.....
So keep working with it, and hope theres a fix soon....or flash EC09 back up your data and hope for the best, either way here its kinda a lose.
But the best thing i can still guarantee if YOU know any other way, is that in that dumpsys file that says the number 1 if you can get that to 0 somehow, someway, and replace it in phone i'll put 50$ says that will without a doubt fix your problem, but locating that, and changing that in-leis the problem its self!!
Sorry i couldnt do more for you
Best of Luck
If I play with my build.prop settings is there any chance of bricking my phone?
I fully intend on making a backup of the build.prop for when I inevitably mess it up, but I don't have a full system backup if I softbrick.
The reason I want to do this is that some of the Tegra 2 games won't work on my phone because they are "not available in my region". I think that is bs, and I think modding my build.porp will help. So I want to modify my settings to trick the game into letting me play.
On that note, could anyone tell me what settings to change? The 'region' setting is a no-brainer, but anything else? There are quite a few items that indicate KR or olleh (the provider).

Worst case just flash a ROM

btw - I'm stock gingerbread with root. I'm not really interested in ROMs (at the moment), I'd just like my phone to act like it's American <insert joke here >. Basically, I want it to tell the software that it is an AT&T phone in America, so that I don't get rejected because I'm in Korea. They have strange gaming rules and many hoops to jump through before a game can be released here. Hence my shenanigans.
If you have a knowledge of adb then you are fine. You can soft brick but not hard brick.

Hey guys,
I've been searching and searching and I can't really find a way to fix this problem I've been having.
I have a Motorola Atrix from Bell running 2.3.6 and I had rooted it.
I got a little power hungry since this is my first android and therefore obviously my first root, and I started deleting stuff like crazy. Unfortunately one of those things was all of the yahoo system apps since I didn't look up if they were important or not, and they obviously were.
My problem is as an attempt to re-install all the yahoo files, I tweaked the build.prop file. I opened it as a text file and changed the ro.build.version.sdk=10 to ro.build.version.sdk=9, i think it was the 6th line of the build.prop text then I rebooted my phone.
I never made a backup or nandroid or anything like that, mainly because I didn't think anything that bad could happen from it. Then I ran multiple factory resets of my phone in hopes to fix this problem, but it still persists. All my phone does now is continously try to boot up, but it just keeps restarting itself halfway through, I can't get to the unlock screen or anything like that. I feel like I royally messed up my phone, if anyone could help me out with this it would be much appreciated.
I can run hard resets using the buttons and run things such as fastboot and RSD even though I dont really have much idea what they are. So I've been trying to educate myself a little with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154600&highlight=soft-bricked+atrix and I'm finally starting to understand what I actually did to my phone.
Once again any help would be much appreciated, thanks, if you need any more information just let me know.
As posted earlier, I was having trouble sending texts to a few select people. The first post here should tell you what's going on: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1375480
So I spent around 40 minutes with ATT chat support. Through-out the support, the guy asked me to turn off my phone, after I did so, he told me he was sending something over to it (or something along those lines) and once he was done, he told me to turn it on.
As expected, this did not work at solving my issue. But he tried again. I went along with it, just to be compliant.
However, does anyone really know if he did change some settings or send over something to my phone? I'm leaning towards the placebo affect, but I'm not too sure.

wipe your phone completely out and use a different rom. SOLVED
I used to work for Verizon tech support, when they say that they are probably updating something in their system... Verizon has a couple different systems in which you can change things to try to solve the issue..I don't suspect Att would be too much different ..that's my opinion

It isn't as simple as that.
On the post I linked to, I was using CM7.2. Right now I'm on MIUI and it's still the same issue. And yes, I wiped everything.
Hi guys! Long time lurker/flasher/tweaker here. Really not sure where to post this tho so mods please move to best area if this isnt it.
To start with this may sound a lil crazy but without getting too much into it I am a victim of something called "Gang Stalking". Google it if ya wanna know more, they know everywhere I am. Crazy crazy evil **** but anyways...
So I have always suspected to have trackers/keyloggers installed on any devices I have if someone manages to get their hands on it. Well I just purchased a new Dell Venue 8 the other day and had a weird experience buying it to start with. Im an American currently in Mexico (part of my journey trying to escape my persecuters) and I went to Office Depot to pick it up as they had a killer sale for it going on (a whole 1/3rd off and electronics are more expensive here)... Well i get the usual run around I get at any business if my persecuters find out im going there for something. Like "no you can only get that special online blah blah etc" when the site clearly says in store only lol. Anyway im used to management being paid off wherever I frequent to give me a hard time and such so as usual I demand the manager and when he tries to give me the run around I start asking for his boss and the number to corporate and threaten to call them there and often they cave. Well he did but says hes going to have to "pull some strings (just for me)" lmao but that to come back tomorrow afternoon and he would have me one at that price. So I say fine whatever. I come back the next day and pick it up and its not factory sealed but I dont say anything and think "well as long as it works fine then ill just take it to end the headache"... It looked brand new still.
I get it home finally and after playing with it a couple days I figure that after that weird scenario at Office Depot I would do some snooping to see if I could find anything on it out of the ordinary (like spyware) and it goes without saying that IF theres been something installed that its going to be the best of the best, probably government level software. Especially since they know Im a tech wiz. I have not got around to rooting it yet as the only method requires a PC so just havnt had a chance. When I first started it up it went through setup and updating to 4.4 as if it was factory fresh. Well I do a lil research and see that theres not much (if any) chance something of that caliber could be installed without rooting first. Well I didnt think it had been rooted, atleast I knew not by me, but I hop on the playstore to download (brother joeykrim's) root checker just to see and the WEIRDEST thing happened. I hit download, it came quick, and the INSTANT it was done and said " installing root checker" my screen went totally blank. Like I could still see the backlight so it was on still, just blacked out. Only way to cure was hit power twice and my pin screen came back up and things seemed normal, and I was able to run root checker and it said NO root but I still thought how odd is that with the screen? I knew better but checked a couple more apps out to verify they didnt exibit the same pattern, they didnt of course. I then tried installing another app called root checker and it blanked the screen out again. Tried with an app called just "root check" and all was normal. Once again with another "root checker" app and the screen blanked. This is super weird no? Almost seems like spyware thats detecting a root checker being installed and running some batch process to hide root or something. Well I also learned in one of the root checker apps that there was in fact a version of BusyBox installed, which I then verified by running. Wouldnt the phone have to be rooted for busybox? I know theres a no root version but I sure didnt install it. Any chance of it being factory installed? So what should I make of all this guys? Kernel level spyware? If so it could survive a factory reset right? How could I get it out and be 100% sure? If I flash a stock image from here would it remove ANY chance there could be spyware? Even of say a government level? Sorry for the long post but help please!
Bump. I know some of you guys know something about this kinda thing. Scared to answer jaha? Would it help if I removed the word government lol? I actually think I may have killed it anyway (fingers crossed)... It seems after doing the "installing root checker and blanking the screen" process a few times (seems like 5 times if I remember correctly) it no longer exhibits this behavior, and after this lil round of playing my tab was noticeably hot (like 3d gaming for a half hr hot). Its almost as if after going into "safe mode" a certain number of times the spyware "Self destructed" to avoid detection. Hopefully thats the case and hopefully this will help some other victim of this cruel torture one day. Knowledge is power guys! Dont let these psycho NWO pricks get you down! They want to rule and control the world but they can only rule you if you let em! Educate yourself about the BS going on in this seemingly FREE country. Heh. Much love!
So I run the S9+ on Xfinity Mobile. When I got the phone I uninstalled just about everything Samsung (per bloatware removal instructions here). Everything is great. With each update some stuff may come back so I uninstall it again.
Android 10 came, and everything works fine except the recents button on my home screen. I usually open recents to either close a program or quickly switch to another program. I also use it to split screen 2 apps at once.
Any ideas what to do?
I guess you uninstalled stock launcher/samsung experience/one ui.That would be why this happens.

this is the cringiest thing people say when troubleshooting. Ive been in leadership positions at 2 different companies in the tech support dept and when helping customer service reps, if someone told me that a customer told them exactly what you responded with, i would either just walk away (jokingly, then turn around and explain that it doesnt matter) or (if they were new) id gently tell them that people say this all the time and that it having worked prior is normally irrelevant. Uninstalling those is the same as uninstalling touchwiz on a touchwiz based ROM, youre begging for trouble doing that.

Cringy - Usually classified by seeing something and feeling extremely embarrassed.
Why would you be embarassed? That's a stupid word to use.
Anyway, I know it can be risky, but I'm not begging for trouble. I've been using this phone since 2018 without 99% of the Samsung stuff using this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...-bloatware-youd-recommend-to-rid-off-t3759500
Anyway, I'ma get ready to factory reset the phone, run update, then remove everything and be back to normal.
Definitely not irrelevant. That's like saying "Gestures used to work, but now they don't".
Anyway, I did a factory reset, update, proceeded to uninstall everything again.. all good. Just takes a few hours.. to set every setting back up again, etc.

its far from a stupid word to use, and youre reply now falls into that same category. Go to urban dictionary and read their definition of cringey. And read past the first sentence where examples are given. it goes a little something like this "Cringy Someone or something that makes you embarrassed to be a part of the human race. Usually classified by seeing something and feeling extremely embarrassed, throwing your head back and closing your eyes to block your view of the cringy media, and biting your lip to keep in your scream of utter disgust. In some cases, a person viewing cringy media may also feel an almost unbearable feeling of wanting to (insert horrible act here). The first example shows usage of the word that defies the first definition. When attempting to help someone with anything really and the person youre helping says "well ive always done it this way and its never been a problem before", i guarantee you that 99% of the helpers in those situations have either facepalmed or very much wanted to. Cringey, plain and simple. Something or someone that usually makes one cringe.
