Hi all...
Please could someone help me?
I am running the latest UK Sim Free ICS Stock ROM - and yesterday I updated the kernel as I wasn't best pleased with battery life.
Initially, I flashed Siyah 3.1.1 via Odin - and after initial boot up, "android upgrading" etc... I rebooted phone, went into recovery, and loaded the "Battery" profile.
The only other adjustment I made was turning off Auto-root and changed USB charging to 650mA in ExTweaks so that it charges via USB at the same speed as AC.
I made no other changes.
Then, the Siyah 3.1.2 Kernel was released, just a couple of hours after. So, I downloaded the CWM zip version this time, and also the Kernel cleaning script that is available on here (more for cleaning up the old stock kernel files than the Siyah)...
I rebooted into CWM and did the Update from zip - ran the Kernel cleaning script first, then flashed Siyah 3.1.2. I rebooted - let it do its "Android Upgrading" stuff and so on, then rebooted, loaded "Battery" profile, and made the same changes as originally - nothing more.
However, now, whenever phone reboots or powers on - I briefly get the "Android Upgrading" screen up for a few seconds. I didnt have this with the 3.1.1 - and am wondering how I can resolve this? I have definitely turned off Auto-Root, so it cant be this.
Another question, I recall reading, but cant find the post anywhere, that to disable the Siyah boot-animation that comes on just before the default Galaxy S2 one (in the same way a Carriers logo's does) - you need to create a file somewhere called .nobootanimation or something?
Does anybody know how to disable this so it just starts up like a stock S2 would? I love the kernel, but I personally prefer my phone to "appear" and feel as stock as possible.
Any help much appreciated - Thanks!
EDIT: I managed to find the post regarding the boot logo and have sorted that - but still found nothing on the Android Upgrading issue - Ive just reset ExTweaks profile through recovery options, no joy...

You would be better asking this question on the SiyahKernel thread
Thanks, I tried there first, and it said I couldnt post as i had less than 10 posts... :/
If this helps:
I re-flashed the 3.1.2 Kernel, this time via Odin (so no Kernel cleaning script run this time prior to flash), but I have the same problem.
I cleared dalvik cache afterwards, and as expected at first boot after clearing I get the:
Android Upgrading:
Optimising Applications
prompt.
Rebooted after this - but still get the:
Android Upgrading:
Starting Apps
at every bootup...
I tried "Fix Permissions" (even though I know this is not what it is for, on the off-chance)... but made no difference.
I reboot phone a lot - and whilst this doesnt effect the functionality of the phone, it does get quite irritating

I'm on Gobstopper 2.3.4 and I've recently been modding my phone with faux123's OC kernel, juwe11's ram optimizer, the Webtop hdmi hack and so on, but I recently ran into a problem. Whenever I reboot my phone the widgets don't load and just display as "Problem Loading Widget" in LaucherPro. It might not be because of any of the mods, but it only started happening after I installed them so it's lead me to believe it might be one of them. Please help!!

Fix permissions with Rom Manager, or in CWM under advanced, then set up your widgets again. You shouldn't have problems after doing that.
I Also noticed in ADW if I installed a backup configuration within ADW I ran into this problem. If I loaded my widgets after re-loading ADW I did not run into this problem. Caelan's post is also spot on!
I just tried doing that and it came back up as "Problem Loading Widget". I'm using romracer's CWM. Would that make a difference? Should I flash tenfar's? Also, when it boots it seems to almost freeze for a second as my internal storage and sd card are being mounted and then I can slide the bar to unlock.

Fix permissions, reboot, then set up widgets again if you lose them. You shouldn't have any more problems unless you flash another ROM, and possibly another kernel.
Then just do the same thing again if you happen to do that.
This is probably stupid, but you don't have the Widgets installed on the sdcard do ya?
No I have nothing installed to SD. I just tried to fix my permissions and it didn't work CaelanT. They still don't show on a reboot. If I reflash my Gobstopper or another ROM would that work? Should I try fixing the permissions with tenfar's CWM instead of romracer's? Oh and there's a little vibration I feel when the phone boots up right before it displays the lockscreen. Is that normal?
UPDATE: I just noticed that every time I reboot my appwidgets.xml file gets reset!! Please someone help, nothing seems to be working...

Same problem here and only after faux's kernel...I tried all the fixes (fix permissions, wipe cache first before flashing kernel) and the only the thing that worked is to go back to the stock kernel.
Oh man, you may be on to something because EVERYTHING was working fine before last night when I flashed faux123's OC kernel. I'm gonna try and go back to stock and see. Thanks man!
Holy hell that worked!! Back on stock kernel and they are loading fine! I knew it had to be one of the modifications I recently did to my phone and it was the kernel after all. Thanks again!!
P.S. Show we contact faux123 and let him know that his kernel causes widget loading on boot issues?

Ok perfect then I'll just wait for his next version and hope that fixes the problem. I need his kernel to flash ROM's since I'm on a international phone. It's weird saying that since I'm just in Canada...

No problem man....yeah I've made some comments on the the kernel thread about the issue. Hopefully it gets fixed in an updated version.
in the kernel thread (dev) faux is asking INTL users about this issue, for INTL users on his 1.6 unified kernel. some report the widget issue, others do not. its the kernel causing. I am using unified OC 1.6 kernel and am lucky enough to have no issues, and WAY better batter life then stock kernel.
I also encountered this issue, however I don't have an international version of the Atrix.
Using 2.3.4 (pudding version for AT&T) with Alien ROM #4 and faux123's 1.6unified kernel.
Also using Launcher Pro.... I just reinstalled everything after doing a hard reset to try and isolate the problem, and it did occur after the kernel flash.
Same problem here, luckily I just reboot my phone few time a month..(why do I need a reboot, anyways?)
The widget is left blank white with Problem loading widget warning..
I'm not using an INT Atrix, only AT&T (I don't know if there's any other Atrix version) using faux123 1.6, piecrust, romracer cwm ..
any luck, guys?
would there be an update of 1.8 of faux?
I think I'm going partially nuts over this problem. I have tried every thing mentioned in any post. Fix permissions with different CWM's.
I thought was going to win today today when I formatted everything, installed gobstopper 2.3.4 w/ deodex update then setting up my screens with ADW it glitched and would go to the screen preview whenever I touched the screen. a reboot and those damn black boxes are all over the place.
Order of operations:
- format internal/external
- factory reset
- fastboot flashed tenfars CWM which wouldn't mount the internal sd so I couldn't flash
- fastboot erase/flash romracers CWM
- installed Gobstopper 2.3.4
- reboot and used it for an hour or so to let it level out
- installed the deodex update
- reboot and another hour of use with a bunch of reboots to make sure everything was cool (it was)
- used Diviances EXT4 User Journal script
- used it for a few more hours without issue
- installed ADW Ex and while setting up my screens it glitches and goes to the screen preview with every touch.
- reboot... no widgets with a string of expletives
so now what...
Same problem here. I am using latest Aura Rom with latest faux Kernel for International users.
I did everything: Wiped cache, reseted factory, installed rom again, changed kernel to older versions, stock versions, fixed permissions and always lose my widgets configs after a reboot.
Hi,
I have been using variiety of ROMs from 2 years on S2 i9100. Problem started with MIUI. Sleep of Death that used to be cured only with reboots. Then i changed the Kernel to "speedmod-kernel-s2-jb-k5-7-CWM.zip " and problem began.
I started getting Status 7 errors when i tried to update MIUI to newer version. I deleted asserts from Updater-Script and installed new version. Also, changed kernel to "Siyah-s2-v6.0b5-CWM".
But today, i opened MyTracks app and phone rebooted.
Since then, i would restart my phone. The phone will reach the "Media Scanning" stage and would then shut down (not SOD).
I restored my NANDROID backup but phone again shut down just after booting up --- right when "Media Scanning" icon appeared at top.
STRANGER -- when i tried to reboot phone after disconnecting phone won't start --- and doesn't go in recovery.
BUT when is being charged using charger phone is able to get into recovery.. and is able to reach and then shutdown at Media Scanning stage.
I made a mistake of flashing Official Firmware (from Sammobile) using ODIN from PC. Now, i do not have CWM recovery.
My phone behaving same even after flashing :-
1. Two different ROMs (Jellybam 7.8 and MIUI 3.7.5
2. Two different Kernels (Siyah-s2-v6.0b5-CWM and speedmod-kernel-s2-jb-k5-7-CWM)
3. Official Firmware Jellybean 4.1.2 using ODIN.
Now,
1. i can't go into recovery without charger
2. phone won't reboot normally without charger
3. shutsdown at media scanner, when rebooted after connecting charger
4. no NANDROID backup working -- same problem as above
5. Kernel changing did not help
6. Flashing ROM did not help --- MOSTLY switches off during installation process
7. ODIN-Flashing-Official Firmware has made me stuck with official-recovery (going to try deleting the asserts statement to see if installation succeeds without status7error)
Need expert help. Can anybody please help me out.
I won't mind paying for your efforts, too.
Please help.
Thanks.

However, the battery is charged 100% and i am able to enter StockRecovery and browse. It fails only during installation of ROMs / Recoveries/ Kernels.
Run rom nuke and kernel nuke scripts from hawerkpaul then reflash rom+gapps see if that does it. So cwm works ok? with out charger connection? If so try the nuke scripts. Also try super wipe by biftor.
Edit your on stock recovery now or cwm? Dont run scripts in stock get cwm bk on ohone then flash nuke scripts. Or redownload stock firmware and reflash with odin. Then flash philz kernel that will bring bk cwm.
Solved
Hi Friends!
It was a battery problem.
:crying: sad i wiped my emmc before checking battery.
Thanks for support guys.
Nuke Scripts are new for me. Shall explore that area, might be helpful in future.
Thanks again.
Rom Nuke scripts will clean up your system ready for flash. Same as kernel Nuke scripts. I don't use them much. I format system,data,cache,preload if its 4.1.2 and then flash Roms. Always works ok with out problems. Only time iv used kernel nuke is to get of Apollo kernel. Glad you sorted your problem out. :thumbup:
This is my first post here so please excuse any violation of rules.
So, I was running CWM recovery + Siyah kernel + CM10.1 + Touchwiz 4.1.2 (dual boot setup) perfectly fine on my Galaxy s 3 for almost a year. But yesterday I decided to update all of those and updated to latest CWM using ROM manager, then changed the kernel to googy max2 and installed CM11. Everything worked properly except that my phone would freeze or hang up randomly at any time(whether swiping through homescreens or updating apps or even during standby). So I changed my ROM to S4 Revoution ROM (tried with both googy max2 and devil kernel). However, even this ROM gave me same hangup problems. So I moved onto TWRP recovery+ OmniRom but still encountered the same problem multiple times. After getting tired of wasting so much time, I came back to my original setup of CWM+Siyah kernel+CM10.1 thinking I wouldn't face this problem again, but to my aghast, the phone would still freeze randomly. Only a power button reboot would help. Please help, I have no idea what might be causing the problem as I have successfully tried every combination of recovery, kernel and ROM but to no avail. And no, I never manually tinkered with any CPU/GPU frequencies or voltages. Your time and help is greatly appreciated, Thank you.
PS: One more very important thing I forgot to mention, CPU-Z shows most of the time all 4 cores of the CPU stay at 1400MHz even though minimum speed is 200MHz. I have noticed this in S4 revolution ROM with googy max2 kernel and pegasusq governor(currently using this setup on my phone). Also, the "devil kernel" app on this ROM shows CPU either stays in deep sleep mode or 1300-1400MHz frequency.
Can't take screenshot for some reason in this ROM otherwise I would have uploaded those too. Thank you.

Did you do a complete wipe before installing all these roms? Wipe Dalvik Cache and Cache partition. I am running WanamLite 7.3 with stock kernel and Wanam Xposed. Here is the link to the rom - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705866
Reboot into custom recovery. Do a full wipe, even though this rom says that it is not necessary but it is always a good idea to do a full wipe before flashing. Try this out and let's try to fix your problem.

Yes, and not just once, but every time I flashed a new ROM. I'm thinking my only option now is to unroot and go back to stock but i am unable to find my country's rom. (found one on sammobile but the download speed refuses to go beyond 2-3kbps).
One more very important thing I forgot to mention, CPU-Z shows most of the time all 4 cores of the CPU stay at 1400MHz even though minimum speed is 200MHz.

Try WanamLite 7.3. Use the link I gave. And install it after doing a complete wipe. See if that makes a difference.

Thank you for the suggestion but i'm afraid that would not help as i have already tried 4 different roms, one of which i used for a year without any problem, but still facing the hangup only since yesterday. plus, I have gone through enough trouble restoring my accounts/apps/contacts and all (especially whatsapp) again and again for the whole of yesterday every time i flashed a new rom. the problem is not related to the rom. thank you, again.

See, most of the things in your phone are software related. It is very very rare that you might have damaged the hardware. I see mismanagement of the resources by the ROM or kernel in your phone. What are the steps you are doing when installing a new ROM and which custom recovery are you using?

I did a full wipe, flashed everything again, did the emmc check as well as the dummy file generator thing....the hangups have reduced to 2-3 per day from 2-3 per hour but are still there. Should I downgrade my cwm recovery?
If you are rooted try the COMPLETE unrooting procedure mentioned at various places by flashing the latest stock firmware available from sammobile. This is to make sure your device software is like brand new. Test it for at least a day. Do a mega wipe (erasing everything even on internal SD card) before which can fix it in some cases.
When rooting again make sure you have the most bug free version of the recovery. CWM 6.0.4.4 is known to have minor problems here and there but nothing concerning to this topic.

Hi guys, I experience the same problems: I'm in any app and I press home to go back to the home menu => my phone's freezing for 5 seconds and then I see all my icons/folders/widgets slowly appearing. I would like to know how to complete format my internal SD card like you said. Thanks in advance.
by pressing the powerkey+homebutton+volume up for about 8-10 seconds you are taken to a recovery menu. You can choose to factory reset over there. That fixed problems in most cases. The only way to wipe the internal partition as well would be to install stock firmware which is a part of unrooting, this will erase everything and put a original rom in your phone.. You can follow the unrooting processes written in many posts in xda
Ok thanks for this quick answer ! So the only way to erase the internal SD card is the unrooting method?

As far as i know yes. Its not any trouble at all, wont take much time, except the firmware you would have to download. Its not needed in most cases. As i said before you may only need a factory reset so try that before! And just hit the thanks button
After flashing the latest version( pa_i9300-5.1-20150528.zip) in recovery, 'Reboot System' reboots to recovery itself. Weird! So I flashed the earlier version(pa_i9300-5.1-20150520.zip) and it rebooted to system and it works. Now I get the OTA update in 'Paranoid OTA' app for the latest version that gave me problems. If I install,
1. Will there be any issues with reboot or any other related issues?
2. Should I reinstall installed apps after update?
Thanks
Not sure if related but I installed pa_i9300-5.1-20150520.zip some time ago on my i9300, everything has been working nicely. Then came the 28th update and another one earlier this month... but installing those updates just resulted in a crash after installing (as in the boot screen looping). Now my system just popped up with an 20150619 update so I thought to try again, but again it download and installs just to loop the boot screen. This time thought I afterwards decided to re-install superSU and my boeffla kernel, that seemingly did something as the phone booted and update. Now maybe this is something one have to do for each update for it to work? I'd love to know for the future as I'm no expert on this, though if you have something similar maybe that's what is required.

I think flashing the Kernel as you did after the dirty flash will help. But the there is no stable Kernel available for CM12.1, even the Boeffla you are using is in the alpha stage, no support yet! So how is the battery life and stability with Boeffla Kernel?
Here's a Stockish ROM for your N915P. This ROM has Knox, Sprint ItsOn, and secure storage removed. Nothing else was done to this ROM. I'm new to the Note Edge so I may upload patches to remove any other traces of Knox or ItsOn or optimizations I happen to find while making my own ROM.
Prereq: OG1 Baseband. Download it below.

Patches and fixes:

[size=+3]DeOdex note:[/size]
The first boot time for this DeOdex ROM is very long. Approximately 5-8 minutes. Your phone will get hot as the splash screen remains on the yellow Sprint boot animation. I recommend keeping your phone in a cool environment while this is happening. The heat, if not properly checked, can make boot times even longer as the system throttles speed in order to deal with the heat. This doesn't happen on the Odex version.
[size=+3]Install instructions:[/size]
-Are you currently on the OC8 bootloader and would like to stay on it?
--Simply flash the baseband with Odin, and the ROM.
-Are you on the update from OTA or flashed the OG1 TAR?
--Flash kernel only.
-Are you one of the unlucky ones to take the OTA and hose your system trying to root and are now on another ROM?
--Flash ROM only.
-Are you on any build after OC8 but not the current OG1?
--Flash the baseband and ROM. Bootloader is optional and not available in this thread as of yet.
Wiping is only necessary if you are coming from a different base, such as AOSP/CM. If you are coming from a touchwiz ROM, wiping isn't needed, but won't hurt.

Thanks, will flash tomorrow.
Thank you so much freeza!! Patiently waiting for the deodexed version and for the baseband.
Added modified stock kernel v1.1 and baseband.
Freeza if I'm on 5.0.1 still just flashing the baseband may give me better service ? Technically...
Downloading now still waiting on the deodex will play with the stock to see how it is thanks
Ok, flashed rom, kernel, and modem. Took a while to boot but all is running well at the moment. Thanks for supporting our device!!
DeOdex uploading....
What What!!! By far the best developer on a Samsung!! Thank you so much for your hard work brother!! Real Talk, i still have your rom on my Note 3! It runs flawlessly!! XD
Get your DeOdex on, guys! ;D
Thanks so much for this!!! I love the separate edge screen and have no reason to "upgrade" to the Note 5
Thank you freeza NICE WORK WITH THE KERNEL
When I saw you had been requested to come help this phone achieve root I knew great things were going to come to those who waited. I've had other devices where you were there to help gain root and again you came through. I purposely didn't take the OG1 update because I knew in time this device wasn't going to be ignored. IMO it is the best NOTE device out there and it will be mine until they make a NOTE EDGE 2 (With SD card and removable battery). Thank you for the quick response and the hard work you do to make this happen.
Cant get either one of them to boot. Both the odex and the deodex wont boot, they both flash fine and then after the phone reboots it stays on the yellow sprint screen Maybe for up to a minute then reboots and it cycles that way. Never boots. I've tried not wiping/Factory restarting as well as wiping/Factory resetting. Have also tried formatting through TWRP to no avail. Have also tried flashing the kernel and wiping caches after flashing but Nothing is working. Have also flashed the baseband.
Im currently on OF6 if that should matter.
Edit: md5 Sums have also match up. Have downloaded both from my phone and a pc to no avail.
Edit 2: tried both TWRP 2.8.6.0 and 2.8.7.0. Also tried clockworkmod recovery and that didn't work either.
I had success but it took some time. I downloaded the deodexed debloated rom, the kernel, and the baseband. I had a method to how I wanted to do this and here is how i got there.
I was running OC8 rom rooted.
1. I odened the baseband tar file and rebooted. But unfortunately it bootlooped on the initial splash screen (note edge) so
2. I ran TWRP recovery and installed the kernel file. Rebooted phone and it ran fine. I looked at the settings about phone and saw that the baseband and the rom all said OG1 but i had not installed the rom yet. So i figure it was a trick to get the baseband to install. So
3. I went back into recovery. Wiped dalvik cache and regular cache and installed the new rom. It installed fine and i waited the length of time for the initial boot up. But this time as it was "Android is starting" it rebooted and got stuck on the sprint splash screen and kept randomally vibrating. Having the ability to remove the battery
4. Rebooted back into recovery, wiped everything including internal storage, and reinstalled the deodexed rom. It installed fine and went to the initial startup screen where it tries to initialize and it rebooted one time, back to the initialize screen but continued without a hitch.
I currently am running OG1 5.1.1. With root.
At times during setting up the phone it would randomally vibrate for no reason...short bursts...but it hasn't yet again rebooted, restarted, or crashed. It is faster from what i see. Probably because there are almost no google apps installed. I've had to install chrome, youtube, and maps. But all seems fine. My signal and speeds are the same so the baseband didn't do much to change that. But so far so good.

I did try to install over my odexed OC8 with this new rom but because there is so much different about the files that are installed IMO formatting the phone was the only way to get this to work.

One final thing just in case it isn't known: when you wipe everything in TWRP, excluding external storage, you have to restart the recovery before trying to install a rom. It will say you have no OS installed, but you are restarting the recovery not booting a rom, so that's fine, but you do lose root status when wiping. So the next screen gives you the ability to gain root again, but you have to restart TWRP to do that. In the past i tried to figure out why installing after wiping didn't work, and 99% of the time it was because of that. I also don't like installing new roms over older roms (even if they are the same base (touchwiz to touchwiz)) because i feel I would spend more time troubleshooting why something isn't working instead of just starting over. I find less hassle doing it this way.
I odin baseband .tar file, than reboot it to recovery, and flash kernal and odex room at the same time, saw some red messages when kernel was flashing, than odex rom was next but it was successful when it was done. (I did not know if kernel falsh ok so i reflash kernel again) reboot to system and after the android system updated all its ok. No problems so far.
Oh and i inclided the supersu at the same time i flash kernel, odex rom and supersu.
1. Odin baseband tar file.
2. Flash kernel, odex rom and supersu.
3. Re-flash kernel.
4. Reboot to system and profit.
(Maybe i did un necessary steps, but its working. )
Was running great but have been experiencing Google account and store issues. Tried odex and deodex versions with similar results. Anyone else having issues?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Just starting to have random freezing. And not able to select my apps froms the edge screen, i can only scroll through it. Will remove all the app shorcuts and re-add tham again.
**update 1.
I removed all shorcuts from the edge screen and added them back, all work but some i have to select them a few times before they open.
Maybe i have to reflash, reset, clean and wipe.
**update 2.
Clean install of odex rom, and kernal 1.1.
No more lagg but the edge screen does not work properly. Not able to select and open some of the favorite app shorcuts.
**update 3.
Factory reset, cleaned and wype, odin sprint lollipop update (uf something), downloaded OG1 update. Installed all apps from scratch. And the edge screen does not work. I can scroll, side to side, up and down, but when i select an app it does not open it.
** update (last one)
Foud the code to test the phone hardware.
*#0*# on dial screen. Tested all and it came out good. But i notice that some how the edge screen its not as whide as it used to be ( like its more to the right of the phone) so where i use to touch to select an app its now more to the right emd of the edge, thats why i was able to scroll but not select the app.
Its all good now. Now second round of flashing.
Will give it another try at the room.
Thanks Freeza and sorry about the problems i had and hopefully did not cause anyone from not trying this great work pr yours.
I left all the problems i had so tje next person trying this room does not get discureged from trying. But allways fallow direction.
:thumbup:
** last update
After setting and resetting, flashing and un-flashing, rooting and un-rooting. I can finally wrote that all is good. Running latest lollipop 5.1.1 and freeza's new 1.1 kernel, I can reprt that all is smooth as butter.
Thanks for the hard work.
Thank you so much for your hard work Freeza! So glad I'm finally running 5.1.1 on this beast :]
The ROM is working pretty well, but I have noticed that every now and then, the phone will be rather laggy. Turning the screen off and on again seems to fix the issue, making me think that the processor is being throttled while the screen is off (good) but isn't being sped back up when the screen is turned on..sometimes.
It's not a huge deal, but I was wondering if anyone was experiencing the same thing.
No issues here.
Starting on OG1 had to flash bootloader, kernel, deodex rom and supersu to make it stick. Two days now and battery, signal and speed seem improved.
Thanks freeza!
