Before going through a complete reset try clearing the app data.
My VZW S3. should be here by early July.

[Q] Device Management - Anyone know what this is?

See screenshots... woke up my sgs2 to find an unbefore-seen set of up-and-down arrows in the upper left of my notification bar. Slide down and selecting it does nothing. Reboot the phone and it comes back. I can find it in running apps and force stop, but can't clear the notification. Anyone have any ideas?
Isn't that the update alert?

Don't know - I've been rooted since the day I bought it. On SHOstock ROM right now,so wouldn't think I've see updates. Can anyone confirm?
Yeah the device management is the app for ota updates, I always freeze it with titanium backup.

I really doubt its the camera app. Try downloading a free one in the play store and see if you can duplicate the issue.

I talked to samsung guys and they are trying to fix it for me... im concerned now because the flash counter is like 21 or so... does it even matter?... what is the safest way to do everything back to factory so that my warrenty wont be voided...
Flash stock thru odin...and use the reset counter flash...how long have you had your note?...is it under 30 days?...did you get it thru at&t?....if so sounds like a defective camera and they will repair the camera....or either send you a reburbished one depending on how you bought it...

Graphics issue???

Has anyone noticed odd lines going diagonally through some icons and play store?
Edit : when I run quadrant I get really bad artifacts on the square part of the stairs.
Could it be a driver issue?
Should I return it as a malfunctioning device?

If you would ac tally read the op you would've seen its not only icons. I also get it on pics and get bad artifacts in games. So if your looking to get sarcastic take it somewhere else.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
Definitely not a driver issue... It's the GPU failing to render. I recommend exchanging it while you still can, even under severe stress mine does not do anything like that. I'm sad for you mate. What carrier you on?

Apparently you need a hug, there was nothing sarcastic about it. Im sitting here waiting for my phone to come in a couple weeks and seeing someone post graphics issues is unsettling. Of course i read the op, but the point was on the screenshot it is specific to the icons,whatever it is does not impact the background or other graphical parts on the screen which makes me think its not necessarily hardware.
Sent from my DROIDX using xda premium
Ty for the input. And my apologies if there was nothing sarcastic intended.
And I'm on AT&T.
Maybe that is the reason the AT&T store said it was a return of a preordered device and allowed me to buy it in store yesterday.
Just stressing out about it a bit.

[Q] Motorola Photon 4G volume issues

Ok, so my mom has a Photon and the volume (ringtones and notifications mostly) wont work when shes had it on silent for more then 30 minutes. Ive tried everything I can think of to fix the issue and nothing has changed. Oh yea and she is on her 3rd one and they have all had the same problem. If anyone has any thoughts Id love t hear them!
Thanks.
Strange... I never heard of this. Are you on the stock ROM?

Yes its on the stock rom. She wont let me root it because shes affraid it something will go wrong.
Does the sound come back once you've rebooted the phone? I mean, taking it out of silent should be enough to unsilence it

You would think that unsilencing it would be enough but for whatever reason in this case its not but yes the phone has to be rebooted every time in order or the volume to work again but sometimes that doesnt even work.
Odd... the only thing I can think of would be to restore it back to a stock SBF, but that might not do much since you've had the issue with 4 other phones. You shouldn't hurt it though

With that many devices it would seem it could be an app problem.

Yeah I agree. I would factory reset, not install any apps, test and see if the problem appears.

No longer able to sync?

I woke up today to find all my contacts missing. Facebook and Google say that sync is down but should return shortly, but it said the samething lastnight. I was wondering if it was just me? I'm unrooted and just been enjoying the stock experience. Any help would be welcomed, and goodmorning to whomever reads this

IDK what it is, but I have done a reset or two as this was the only way to fix the syncing problem, but it always comes back for me and the only thing I can think of is it's related to the damn 2.06 update because my other devices have no problem syncing.
