My phone has been acting up today. It has been very laggy/slow and it's as if my touch isn't being recorded well. Also, it froze for a while, and at one point, it got stuck and kept moving an app icon back and forth (shaking) repeatedly.
I haven't done a clean wipe yet, but it's sounding like a hardware issue.
Can anyone confirm? (Don't want to bother wiping and doing all my settings again if it is a hardware issue).

1) you've given absolutely no information to be able to help you.
2) if you're too lazy to fully wipe you're phone to see if that fixes the issue, why would you post a thread about it. Doesn't really sound like you want this issue resolved.
3) prior to posting this thread you should have: A. Fully wiped your device to see if that was the cause. B. Gave enough info for someone to be able to help you. Like what rom are you running. What kernel. Have you flashed any boot loaders. What have you tried yourself already in an attempt to fix the issues?
So basically it sounds as though you want others to do the foot work for you. That's not really cool dude.

No, I was just looking for information. You don't have to talk to me like that. It's a hassle to set up everything the way I had it, so if it is a hardware issue, I see no point in bothering with it. All I was asking if anyone knew if these were hardware failure symptoms or whatever.
Anyway... I'm on ICScrewed 2.1 with Entropy's latest GB kernel. No bootloaders or anything. Haven't really messed with my phone. And I don't know what to try to fix it. That is why I posted this. To see if any of these symptoms are familiar to anyone else who can give feedback instead of bashing me.
He's correct but it definitely could've been articulated a little more hospitable. This is supposed to be a helpful forum. One way you can be sure its not hardware is to go into the developer options and check the pointer location setting. That will tell you how android is reading your touch screen. But its more then likely the from try wiping cache/dalvik if not then you may have to do a full wipe. Sorry dude.

Task was absolutely right. And this is NOT A HELP DESK. If u honestly don't know where to start fixing anything or diagnosing a problem why are u flashing roms that void your warranty and could brick your device? This forum supports learning and reading and growing. The title is xda DEVELOPERS.

Yes, it is a hardware issue. Don't waste your time wiping.
Just throw the phone away and buy another one.

I've seen many of your posts. All you do is bash on people. Secondly, I know how to flash ROMS, and I don't run into very many problems. Thirdly, no one is born to be a genius that knows how to fix everything the second something goes wrong. Your logic is flawed. You're just an ass. And what does the title have to do with anything? This isn't JUST for developers. And I like how you talk about learning and growing, yet you just bash people who are starters. How do you expect anyone to learn like that? Grow up.

How is it annoying? The underlying question of my post was pretty much asking if anyone has experienced these symptoms, and with feedback (not trolling bs), I can then act accordingly.

I think. I re-flashed, still happened. Then I returned to complete stock and unrooted, re-rooted and flashed again. SEEMS okay. Hopefully it stays like that.

USUALLY you can do a full wipe and fix the problems. But I prefer to return to stock. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS do a fresh flash like this before making a pointless thread. Save yourself some hassle and flaming

Save myself some hassle? That's actually what the point of this thread was. To save me the hassle of having to return to stock and what not and reapplying all my settings, tweaks, alarms, etc. But people had to be dicks and troll essentially instead of offering useful feedback, leading me to go through it all anyway. And I don't even know if this is going to fix it permanently. Furthermore, I like to gain information and know my options before I start doing stuff here and there.

This is the reason i posted what i did . You got your answer very early on, from a recognized developer noless. And my posts don't flame people or laugh at their mistakes or anything like that. Most of them tell people to search and read before flashing again, and if i remember where something is ill even point them in a general direction that will result in them learning . Im pretty straight and to the point. Nothing i do is personal on here. Good luck, hope your problem is resolved.

Update: The problem persists, even after going back to stock, re-rooting, reflashing, etc.
You should now determine if the behavior persists after returning to stock. I had issues on icscrewed as well, not the same, but issues. Also, why would you want to run a rom that mimics real ics roms when you have a ton of real ics roms that work great?

Hello there,
I recently found the ROM to upgrade the Droid Razr XT912 to JB. Went through the process and it all worked out fine...however I have noticed a few things that I was hoping to get help with.
1.When trying to go into camera it shows up for a second then freezes and a popup says Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped.
2.When going into system settings it has Cyanogen mod infomation there but under OTA updates(Not sure if they are cyanogen mod updates or Verizons) it says Error fetching update info: Invalid ROM(STOCK0JB-cm_spyder) and device(cdma_spyder) combo!
Just trying to find out what I need to do to get the camera working, the other thing may just be as intended with this ROM.
It is the one located at this url here on the site.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1912596&nocache=1
From the thread where you downloaded:
What Doesn't Work?
Webtop
HDMI
FFC Video
Camera Flash
Bugs?
Normal CM10 bugs like the screen rotation shrinkage.
Volumes
Bluetooth
Maybe more, you tell me!

AND not all roms support OTA updates.
Hey, here is a good idea..... Go read the thread where you downloaded from. There might be an answer in there. And while you are at it, why not post your question in that thread?
EDIT: There are other people with the same problem in that thread. Not sure if there is a fix. READ IT. Oh, and I notice you cannot post since you only have two posts. Go help 8 people and then you can post your question in the thread if it isn't solved already.
I fixed the problem by downloading a third party camera app for ICS. I would have posted there if I could have, the problems I read about all related to just the flash on the camera not working...not the whole camera itself. I must have missed it in the 12 pages.
I apologize. Did a search for my problem and could not find anyone saying the keywords I was looking for. Thanks for the response as unhelpful as it was.

There is still time to go help 7 people and get your 10 posts. Then you won't have this problem in the future if your problem is not addressed in that thread.

Thanks for letting me know. My caffeine level is fine though. Thanks for your concern.
I was just pointing out that the OP should read the thread for his specific ROM. That would be the best place for info.
If he had read it (instead of searching it) he would see that there are a few other people that are having the same problem. There are also a few suggestions as to what might be causing the problem and a suggested fix.
That's all I'm saying brah!
And if he would have found a few minutes to make a few posts over the last 6 months that he has been a member here, he would have been able to post in the thread where he is most likely to get an answer from the other people running that ROM, including the DEV.
That's all I was saying!
But again, thanks for your concern about my caffeine levels.
Hello All
I am new here.. and too about samsung.
I bought an used i777 and I am happy whit it. but the problem is a noise when use the camera, like it video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toDlY8Txb4M
So I like to know if I can fix it, replace the camera or what I need to do?
I am on honduras and my english is to bad.
thanks
Hello all.
no body had this problema? Camera read noise?
There is already a thread with this same issue, it stems from the autofocus mechanism in the lens I think. You should be able to purchase a new camera and replace it. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

It seems that you've found the thread, as I've seen that you posted in it. Remember to search first before you post, because 90% of the time someone has had the same problem you have.
Anyone have a Nexus 7 wifi only?
IF SO, I have a favor to ask you. I tried posting this on the Nexus 7 forums, but there's so many people there and so many threads my thread got buried so quick. Plus, everyone here is generally nicer and more responsive.
I made some modifications to my N7 at some point, and now that I want to upgrade to 4.2.2 it fails because of issues relating to Gallery.
I think I'm missing some files. IF anyone has a rooted stock N7 could they post any of the "gallery related" apps / files from System/app (Gallery.apk, GoogleGallery, etc, etc)
If not, I'll keep trying to remedy this another way lol
Scratch that, learning occurred and I solved it.

It's generally polite to explain how you solved the problem for posterity. There's nothing more frustrating than coming across a solved thread that's missing the solution.

Except for the fact that it's in the Inc4G forum so he probably thought let it die so.....
It's not a glitch, this isn't Wreck it Ralph.
I know it shouldn't have been posted here anyway, but I was getting frustrated :/
Anyway, I solved it by googling and finding a stock ROM and getting the files from that zip.
Then I decided to flash Cyanogenmod to it anyway, so really I was wasting my own time and other people's time.
My apologies.
A few weeks from now my phone just randomly froze and the only thing worked was to restart the device by holding the powerbutton for a long time. I thought that it was just some random freeze but the freezes have been getting worse and worse. Now it freezes almost twice a day for no apparent reason (like in the lockscreen, on the web, in the sms app, in the settings etc etc). Yesterday when I woke up the phone was showing the "Samsung SIII" logo, I guess it had crashed in the night and tried to reboot (?) but got stuck on the logo at the start. My rom would not even start. Took out the battery etc etc but it did not start. Reflashed another rom and the same thing happened today too. Have tried to wipe all data etc and tried 3 different roms and kernels, including the stock kerner but still random freezes. What could be the problem, how should I troubleshoot it? Really annoying as it have been working fine forever until it started to act crazy. Also tried without any playstore apps but still random freezes sometime.

From your sig "Hit Thanks if I deserve it" - actually no, this time you do not deserve it. You could just have written what it meant. Lmgtfy is so old school.

Thanks! :laugh: Yeah it the insane chip. Is there any fix beside sending it in and repairing it? Did not samsung release a software fix? What does that fix address? Is it just a preventive measure or does it actually fix anything? I am also rooted and on a custom rom, do I have to reset everything before handing it in? And if yes how do I factory reset it and reset the flash counter?

1. If you'd follow a kind advice from Glebun, making your homework properly, you'd never asked basic question related with it.
2. Education, profession, or anything else is related with the FACT that you're a lazy noob unable to search given link and to find answers by yourself.
Oh, sorry: your profession, based on your behavior here, straightly cannot be related with anything requiring self direction, initiative and motivation.
Finally, your stupid request to copy and paste for your use the clues of the very long thread is a pure example of absolute selfish, demanding and ignorant kiddo, who can face serious problems with that position as soon as he will leave nursery.
Seems that there may be some confusion over who is and who are NOT the Mods here. I suggest that everyone in this thread throttle it back a bit and try to help out instead of a snarky response.
Yes Rule #1 is to Search, but Rule #2.5 is to be courteous to your fellow members.
I'll post it here just in case you missed it.
2.5 Courtesy towards other Members: Treat new members the way you would like to have been treated when you were a new member. When dealing with any member, provide them with guidance, advice and instruction when you can and always with respect and courtesy. Never post in a demanding, argumentative, disrespectful or self-righteous manner.
