I have been having this issue for a long time now and it's gotten very aggravating- I don't know if this is news to anyone but basically every other few times i'm in my messaging app my text stops typing and I have to exit the messaging app and re enter to continue typing my message. This isn't an issue with the keyboard ( I use ICS standard keyboard) as I have tried several keyboards and had the same problem. I have done a complete wipe several times and I update AOKP every chance I get. Is this a known bug? Is there any solution to this? Thanks for your time.
Same thing happens on my Atrix running AOKP #37.

Considering I'm a lucky one since I haven't run into any of these issues on AOKP with both stock and Fluxxi kernel.

I'm running the Fluxxi kernel, but I had the same issue with the standard Aokp/cm9 kernel as well.

You lock your screen while on Messaging app, don't you? I noticed that any time the keyboard is up and the phone locks, it will cause that or another error where it accepts input for a certain amount and stop. The only way to fix both is to either back out of the app (usually press back button twice or home) or before you lock, go to home.

Yeah, I noticed it happens a lot when the screen is locked with the keyboard open. It happens in every app, happens to me on facebook and anything else I lock my screen on while the keyboard is up.
I switched to Serendipity 9.4 from AOKP and haven't seen an instance of it since. I noticed it happens on pure AOSP built roms and haven't seen it happen on any of the i9100 Sammy ports or i777 Sammy leaks.

+1, changed to serendipity and haven't looked back, a much more stable rom in my opinion
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
Yeah I tried serendipity and it seemed to be a pretty good rom, it's just that I can't leave aosp based roms because there is so much more customization built right in (in this instance aokp) and I don't like what Samsung did to ice cream sandwich really anyway... can anyone confirm that CM9 does this as well?

I am on FJ's base ICS UCLE2 rom.
There's a picture frame widget included, which I think is a stock Samsung thing as I'm pretty sure I remember it from the stock GB rom too..
I just started using it the other day and I point it to a folder and it cycles through the pictures fairly quickly, every 3 seconds. But it seems to stop cycling at some point, even rebooting doesn't get it to keep cycling again, I basically have to click on the picture and re-select the folder and then its start going again.
There's no options for this widget that I can select other than selecting photos.
Anyone else run into this?
I never used it on GB, so I am not sure if it did the same thing, but it would seem it should keep cycling pictures randomly indefinitely...
I have been experiencing this as well.

I'm wondering if some "battery tweak" is causing this... maybe Power Collapse, or something like that...
I get this too, I'm on Goldie ICS 5th build.
I just hold it down and resize it slightly and then it starts to cycle again. It's weird... I'm gonna try to dl another pic fram widget and see if the same problems occur.

I didn't even bother with Kies. I was rooted and was pretty sure that Kies would not work until returning to stock.
went into the development section and to the Odin stock JB thread. someone had posted video on youtube and I watched it once.
got all necessary downloads and went through step by step. it seemed as if it hung at blue and white att ball, but left it plugged into Odin until it fully booted. out of the blue "YATZEE".
always a good idea, go slow and follow directions to the tee.
I always get nervous in the service, but this was pretty easy.

Pop-up note works for me, just hold down the S-Pen's button as you double tap the screen.
Despite what nearly every news outlet claims, multiview isn't in this release. Although according to Samsung's press release, the floating window support for videos and the browser made it in. I've gotten the floating video to work, but I can't figure out how to get the browser to float. I don't see an option for that anywhere.
The only other thing that isn't working for me is Samsung's stock image gallery. It crashes the phone, even after wiping EVERYTHING, and doing a re-flash. While I would have liked to at least test it, I just deleted it and I'm using QuickPic as a replacement.

Kinda a lot. I've deleted over 200 MB of bloat from /system and most things are pretty laggy. Where's Project Butter?!

But as soon as I put my finger on the display, everything gets laggy.
But at least my GPS works properly. :| It didn't in any ICS ROM, including stock.
The new jellybean update from AT&T does not lag for me. People say it does but first, flash rom, factory reset, root, remove bloat, download setcpu, min 192 max 1.5. Does not lag one bit for me. :silly::silly:
Same experience as ^^^^. Remember friends, freeze a bloatware app, then use your phone for a while, and if there's no problems, delete.
Some apps you might be tempted to delete can bork your system. Proceed with care.
Sorry for my stupid question. Could you teal with apps did you freeze? I dont want stop something that might brick my phone

If you're going to experiment, do you know how to make a nandroid backup? Its your insurance policy.
And you won't ever brick doing this. The worst thing is your phone will give error messages and won't function.
Just restore your nandroid.

Jellybean upgrade - or not??
Maybe I jumped the gun upgrading to stock Jellybean because I miss the following features
1) Three day calendar - maybe I messed something up but I don't see a way to get it back. Currently using weekly list view but its not the same. Also the "Today" widget only shows today the ICS one would show about 24 hours of items so usually would show what is going on tomorrow as well.
2) I am having S-pen issues. I have a collection of different Stylus pens and I have been using one from Samsung Electronics Slate PC because it had a nice size, shape, and an ERASER. The eraser no longer works in S-note. Also one of my favorite time wasters, Cubistry, the spen no longer registers (stock or Slate).
3) I'm getting old and fine print is getting harder to see. On the ICS Swipe keyboard, the long press characters were almost the same size as the regular characters. I'll have to look for another keyboard.
Full blown multi-veiw was also not included but I don't know if I would use it much.
We did get Google Now which I don't use that much & Polaris Office 4.0 that I use alot - the new office can edit text files (ICS could view them but not save text files).
Lol jumped the gun..
It's software if you don't like it just go back abs wait for custom Roms built on this firmware

I tried that and got pop up note, which is pretty cool, but in my first few attempts, I got several screen captures, but I also got a list of apps across the bottom of my screen. I don't know how I got it or what it was and have been unable to duplicate it. Anyone have any ideas about what it was?
I'm having an issue with every rom except the stock rom with the phone automatically rebooting itself while doing simple tasks and showing a green screen. I tried enabling force gpu rendering etc but still getting this. Though with any stock roms (default rogers rom + the jb 4.1.2 for att etc) i dont occur this issue. What could be the problem?
Yeah this happens wayyy to often on 4.2.2 roms a little bit less on 4.1.x roms.

This is usual since we do not have the kernel source to make ROMS stable and not reboot. 4.2.2 ROMs are more stable then 4.1.2 so idk what you did there.

Rebooting on 4.2 ROMS
I'm having the same problem as OP with my i717 It happens bad on all of the 4.2 ROM's I've tried, and I know it's not the ROM. So far I've tried: Slim, Supernexus, CM10.1,ReVolt all of which I love! I really want to fix this. I start a game or other app and get a wildly flashing green, blue or sometimes black screen and then she reboots. Usually when opening a game or instagram, but not limited to those apps. It's hard for me to replicate the symptoms. Anyone else struggling with these symptoms on 4.2 roms? It seems less often on 4.1.2 ROM. When I restore a Blackstar ICS setup from twrp the phone runs beautifully. I've used darkside super-wipe hoping that would help. I've also tried changing recovery. Now I'm running out of things to try. I feel like somethings not being cleaned properly before install but I'm new so I don't really know.
Should I try using ODIN to flash a stock jelly bean firmware in order to sort of "start over fresh"?
I wish I could explain to everyone better my problem.

1) AOSP is unofficial so these is going to happen. 2) Is your screen flickering? 3) if so check HW overlays in dev options.

It happens to PACman ROMs too, try listening to music while attempting to cause the crash.. .There will be a loud beeping sound, followed by the greenish-blue screen, then the device will shut off, and reboot
I got the crash on trying to wake the device to unlock, and grabbed a logcat using Catlog.
Hi,
I have been using Neutrino 3.02 with Faux Kernel for some time now. The problem I have been facing from the beginning is, often after the call ends, the phone goes into a freeze mode when no buttons work and the red led is lit. When this situation occurs, the system completely freezes and whether I press button, power or any combination - it simply refuses to to get back online from freeze mode.
I have to manually pull the battery to solve it. Anyone having the same problem? It doesn't happen all the time but happens often. I couldn't figure any probable reason for this issue.
Note: This does not happen on 3.xxx kernel on Epinters CM10.1. Neither it happened on stock blur ROM. happens with CM7 based roms.
Tried MROM's kernel but it happens there more often than faux's

REALLY strange. I used cm7 for nearly a year (pure cm7 downloaded straigt from cm's site, not the ones on this forums) and I hadn't faced a single issue, with nothing at all... Try to switch to a different kernel, either stock or mrom ones and see what happens.
You could also capture a logcat via adb while trying to reproduce the error and see what it logs
I am not using stock CM7. I'm using Neutrino.. Can that be a problem? Any one had this issue before?

This information might be helpful. Sometimes it comes back from freeze mode if I keep pressing random keys. Sometimes it works, most of the time it doesn't and stuck at black screen with red led. Can it be something like that when I end the call the phone is still thinking I'm talking and hangs.

that was taken from the phone after a reboot? if so, it isn't much of a help, since it appears to clear log on each boot.
From what I can see, a theme is not properly created and fails to replace something. not a big deal.
Also, facebook app tries to get way too much permissions and gets denied. The one strange error is with lucky patcher. did you use it to patch android core? if so, there might be the problem

No.. I survived a freeze (random button pressing and then came back to life) and took the logcat.
#Reverted to stock CM7.2 (Stable - directly downloaded from download.cyanogenmod.org)

I knew this is an issue. I searched Google and several others have this problem too. I don't know how to fix this
Can everyone post a list of stable roms for I717? I don't like going through the trouble of backing up all my data and flashing a new rom only to have it crash multiple times per day and have something like bluetooth not work reliably at all. Maybe some people enjoy playing with that (a lot of the most popular roms at the top of the forum are like this), but I don't!
I'll start the list and say that Beanstalk 4.4 is extremely stable, only had it reset on me twice in one year, and bluetooth works 100%. Only issue is that you can't move apps to SD so you run out of space quick (thanks to kitkat). I'd love to find something above kitkat this stable...
And I'll add some that I have tried and failed:
Candy5: No matter what Gapps I tried (yes pico etc), none of them installed and even after going through every suggestion in the thread I could not get a simple google play installed. Stock browser crashes every 2 minutes.
Pac-rom: Promising but crashes 10+ times per day. Often does not power on unless you boot into recovery and select reboot. GPS is terrible, google maps often loses it's place and gives turn-by-turn directions 60 seconds too late. Stock browser crashes all the time as well.
CM: Bluetooth reliability is terrible. Quincyatt not updated since 2014.
Sounds like you should stick with beanstalk or return the device to stock. When you rooted your device, it opened up security issues so it'll never be as solid as you'd like. What hasn't been updated since 2014?

CM for I717.
I don't like going back to stock because IMO it's less secure (heartbleed is a pretty big security hole). If you leave root access disabled and don't download shady apps a custom rom isn't any more insecure.

Yes, I tried every suggestion in the thread and it still didn't work. After trying pac-rom for a couple days (and having it crash 20+ times) I just tried wiping it and flashing candy again, and now Gapps with google play worked the first time with no troubleshooting. Shrug.
Seems rock-solid so far though. Can't post in that thread since I have too few posts, so one question, if I do the OTA download for the new 4.0, can I just flash it on top of my 3.9 version or do I need to wipe everything and start over? Also, under Settings, Apps, if I click an app and move to SD card, it will sit there and say "moving" forever. If I exit settings and come back sometimes the app will actually show moved to SD list though.
And the stock calendar app doesn't seem to let me log in, it says "Sign in to get the most out of your device". Then I enter the email I've always used and it says "This account already exists on your device." But there's no other way to actually select that account. What am I doing wrong?

Also, under Settings, Apps, if I click an app and move to SD card, it will sit there and say "moving" forever. If I exit settings and come back sometimes the app will actually show moved to SD list though.
And the stock calendar app doesn't seem to let me log in, it says "Sign in to get the most out of your device". Then I enter the email I've always used and it says "This account already exists on your device." But there's no other way to actually select that account. What am I doing wrong?

Don't do the OTA yet since BB won't let me upload my roms. The ota notification is a fluke. You'll have to flash the rom fresh between trying to find the right gapps which will work on your device. Candy is the most stable of all my builds currently.

The ota is ready now if you wish to try that.

Still can't post in the main thread but:
-If you turn on "Directly show pattern view", nothing shows on the lock screen besides the dots (time, weather, owner info, notifications).
-I had the dreaded bluetooth bug happen the other day, do you get many reports of this? (bluetooth stops working while streaming music, and does not turn back on until a phone reset).
-Stock calendar cannot be logged into (edit: just installed the google calendar from the app store which worked fine)
Unfortunately these are all deal breakers for me but I really like the rom otherwise, I don't want to switch back
Any way to enable HDMI output? (I have the adapter which worked before).

Must be on stock based rom and that being said, not all of those work. I know Saurom, Blackstar Blackjelly and OnlyOne Goldie work.
Edit: on my device.

I heavily utilize the "Move to SD card" option because otherwise the default storage doesn't hold more than 10 or so apps, but I've had a problem with Candy5 twice now where my phone will crash, and upon reboot, all the apps that were moved to SD card are gone. Anyone else encounter this?
I wish I could post in the normal thread.
Installed the latest Candy5 20151031, did a complete wipe of everything per the instructions, and after installing 1 app (gmail), the phone reboot the first time gmail opened while placing the gmail widget down.
Here's a list of ROMs I've tested:
BlackSTAR XI - Best ROM for the i717. Super stable and fast.
CM Official - Good, but very buggy. SD card breaks, phone reboots often, HW overlays, etc.
Padawan - Not much new here, just a simple modded version of stock. Very stable but not too fast.
Candy5 - Very laggy, as LP is still in development for i717.
CM11 Unofficial - A bit laggy, HW overlays.
All in all I'm a huge fan of BlackSTAR XI, best ROM I've seen so far.

-Which CM official version (10.1, 10.2,etc)? HW overlays can be worked around by switching off in developer options.
