[Q] Notification Pull Down Doesn't Work on Lock Screen - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

I was running AOKP for over a month and the notification pull down would work while on the lock screen with no problems at all. One day, it just stopped working and I have no idea why. I of course wiped the Dalvik cache and did a full reinstall and it still didn't work. I even switched over to Serendipity 9 and it also doesn't work on that ROM either. I've used the CM9 kernal and Fluxxi and it doesn't work on either. The weird thing is that if I restart my phone, the notification pull down will work ONCE after rebooting then stop working for all attempts after that. If it helps, I do not have my SIM card installed. I don't have any security set for my lockscreen. It's at the default slide unlock. Any ideas?

Im not on latest, on 6-7 still, and its working.
but it could be a fix from AOKP themselves, it could be a bug, tho I see it as a nice feature.
Or It could just be that you need to full wipe. Funny how you started a thread before doing that.

I did several full wipes and reinstalls of AOKP and Serendipity. I believe I solved the issue: The SIM card needs to be in the phone during the first boot and can be taken out after that. So far it's been working for an hour without any problems.

any fixes to these bugs on CM7 (1.3)????

1. 4g handoffs still dont work. (wiped data and reset apn)
2. after being somewhere with no signal i get 1x for a long time
3. making a phone call force closes the dsp equalizer
4. auto brightness not working
anyone else still experiencing any of these? is there a fix i dont know about. a zip, a kernel?
thanks in advance
I upgraded from 1.2 without wiping and I don't have any of those problems.
The only problems I have are some wake lock issues. The weather channel app and Android System both give me wake lock. Granted they did this on 1.2 as well, and it also seems to happen on any AOSP ROM I've tried, so it isn't just CM.
agreed. Not seeing any of these problems. Sounds like you may not have wiped when flashing so do that and try again.

[Q] Longhorn 2.9.3 Random Rebooting

Hi
I've been using Longhorn 2.9.3 from a fresh install and really love the rom.
Everything works great except where lately I've been having issues where the phone just reboots out of the blue.
This has happened on average 10-15 times this past week.
Can anyone help?
Cheers
Nico

try to check which application that causing this.. a fresh install does not happen at all of random reboots.. not even once...
you could try to wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache and lastly wipe data .. do dell factory reset too if case is worsen...

Cheers mate,
I haven't installed any apps since about a week before this started.
Do you know of any apps that may cause this? as removing them one at a time and waiting for it to happen again is going to take ages.
It seems to have gotten better this last week.. only 1 or 2 reboots.
Further Indications......
Hi folks,
I'm having the same issues with Longhorn 2.9.3 Final, but it only seems to randomly reboot when the the phone is left idle and the screen goes off, So my first attempt was to disable the lock screen - no effect, then I tried certain background apps, such as Go Launcher EX, followed now by Facebook, and a local taxi app, nothing as yet.
I have tried wiping various caches, but it made no difference unfortunately.
If anybody know anything relevant to this issue don't hesitate but to share it with us, please.
I really am very fond of this custom ROM, and don't want to abandon it.
Thanks in advance
Ben.
Found the problem on mine

After going through clearing caches, replacing internal and external SD cards, cleaning the back door blah blah blah I found the following.
When I ran the Maps app, it asked if I wanted to use wifi for location to which I responded yes... mistake! If the wifi location option is checked, the phone seems try to use wifi when it is asleep and ends up rebooting.
I found this by turning the wifi off which made the phone sleep without re-booting and then by turning wifi on and disabling wifi location in Maps.
A long, involved process but now my Streak is rock steady and I don't have to think about reverting to a stock ROM... hooray
.

Stability update...
Uptime 600h
Previously would reboot twice a day or more
Very happy with the ROM now
I am having this problem also
I have a reboot problem as described above. The problem is that when I disable the use wireless networks option it does not disable. That is I leave the screen. Go back to it and it is still checked.
Please Help.
Web....
what kernel and baseband have you using?
Same here...
I 've been faceing the same problem exactly... latest longhorn randomly reboots, usually first the 3 buttons flash a few times before the reboot...
I downloaded and installed the 407 baseband and radio, then longhorn, did all wipe and dell reset, still the same ...
I've read this forum a few times, still though, would anyone be so kind to direct me towards a link here, where I could in fact revert the dell to an official rom version, before trying anything else?
Tnx in advance

I ended up disabling the Wifi location and my Streak works great. I had some app installed that was messing with me disabling/changing the wifi location settings. Sometimes I could not even disable wifi.
I remove a ton of apps. Was able to disable location via wifi and my phone has been working great ever since.
I can confirm that I had a problem with this and disabling it fixed it.

[Q] Problem with hyperdrive rls7

Having an issue with the "touch" on this rom. Been running it for a while and now suddenly random apps
open when I touch the left side of the screen. It doesnt matter what app i'm in. Also the back button stops
working at random. Ive cleaned cache and dalvik, cleared data and done a clean install and the problem
is still there. Tried fixing permissions to no avail. Anyone else having this issue or any recommendations?
Thanks

I'd try a different rom first; if that doesn't work, try flashing back to stock. If that still doesn't work, it kind of sounds like a hardware problem

Try disabling multi-window or long pressing back button to make the side dock appear. I had a problem where the left side of the screen was launching apps at random and it turned out to be that the dock for multi-window was acting as though it was open, even though I couldn't see it. I think I was able to stop it by showing then re-hiding the multi-window dock.
That makes sense. I will give it a shot. Certainly seems like that is exactly what is happening. Thanks
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
I was having that happen for a little while also, but it wasn't on RLS7, it was an earlier one, maybe 5.7. Anyway, I'm pretty sure I remember disabling the multi-window and that fixed it.

GPS won't lock even after many attempts to fix

Hello XDA Developers,
I come to you all with a problem. I am having trouble with my GPS; it won't lock. I have tried these things:
Using GPS Status and other GPS fixers
Doing a factory reset using Mr. Cook's ROM Wipe Script
Clearing data and cache of my GPS apps (Waze and Google Maps)
Idk what else to do. Every time I use the GPS apps to pinpoint my location, after a navigation session, it goes back to getting stuck on "waiting for GPS".
Any help is appreciated.
What firmware are you running? Have you had the same problem with other firmware?

I am currently on an unofficial nightly of CM11 ported by RenderBroken. When I was experiencing those problems, I was on Omni ROM for Android 4.4. I was on ShoStock3 before the Omni ROM, and it was the same problem.
I don't run anything AOSP based so I can't speak about how those might affect GPS, but since you have the problem across various roms, and even on SHOstock3, I wonder if the phone has a problem with the GPS hardware? Have you ever had good GPS at any point with that phone? If so what were you running at the time.
I've had some GPS issues in the past but am not having any issues currently. I've been on SHOstock3 for a long time. My issues were on an earlier version of SHOstock, I don't remember which one exactly. When my GPS would fail to lock, just as you described, a reboot would fix the issue and result in a fast lock, but then the next time I would try to use GPS, I would have to reboot again. It was very annoying. Someone said that to format cache, wipe dalvik cache and fix permissions would fix the problem, so I tried that, and yes I would then get a lock in 5 - 10 seconds and it would stay good for a few weeks until I would have to do it again. I never experimented to see which of those three things helped, or if you had to do all three. That was back around June or July of this year.
As I recall, the next base change on SHOstock completely eliminated the issue.

I have had a lock before. When I used GPS Status, it would get a lock for a short while, but when I ran the navigation, it would get stuck at waiting for location again.

Phantom voicemail notifications

So I recently flashed OctOS on my LG-LS990 and I am having this very annoying thing happening where I keep getting notifications that I have 1 voice mail when there aren't any. I've gone into the phone app and cleared cache, which makes the notification go away but then it comes back within a few minutes. This seems to happen quite frequently when I am at work and the signal is spotty. I've also called myself from a different number, left a vm, and then checked it from my G3 and deleted it and the icon doesn't clear. Also rebooted the phone numerous times, but it still comes back.
I was using youmail after I flashed the ROM, but have deleted it hoping it would resolve this issue. Which it has not.....
I was using Resurrection Remix ROM prior to this and initially had the same issue, but it cleared up when I did what I listed above. Anyone out there have any other ideas for how to fix this problem?
I have had the same issue and have asked but no answers yes. It is not a huge issue but really annoying. I have flashed Resurrection and OctOS and never could get it to stop showing up. I would get the VM notification EVERY time I got off of a phone call.
79 views and still no solutions
Go back to stock. Fix it. Then you might need to reflash CM instead of restore.
That's probably your best option
I have gone back to Stock several times using the Flash tool. When I do I have no more Phantom VM's. Root and flash a stockish ROM and still no phantom VM. But Everytime I flash any CM based ROM and get off of a phone call it comes back. after EVERY call. Aggravating more than anything.

Same here. May look at trying a different ROM. Such an annoying issue.....
Maybe try to just hide the notification. That is what I did. This is an old issue with sprint. If you really want to get rid of it, you have to find an old flip phone or something before android. Activate it and then go and clean out old voicemail's. I have been dealing with it since HTC EVO days. I have never gone back and done the real fix. If you really searched google there is info on this annoying issue.
