I've been somewhat silent on the forums but look at them everyday for updates and whatnot. I'm not new to flashing roms and everything but I cannot figure out this problem.
When I upgraded to DCD's 3.1.1 and then 3.1.2 I've noticed without doing anything on the phone the phone application opens itself. I dealt with it for a little while but its becoming a little annoying.
Programs I have installed:
SPB Pocket Plus 4.02
S2U2 1.01
Oxios Memory
HTC Album
Touchflo
Touchflo Config
Regedit
Today clock(made by someone in xda forums)
several have observed - just reload the dialer; worked 4 me!
No it's not the dialer that has to be reloaded. It's SPB. Uninstall SPB and then see if your problems go away.
I've tried reinstalling SPB, doesn't fix anything. Seems to happen more often after I've sent a text message? Also before I installed any programs it ran the phone app by itself, which makes me think its something to do with the rom more than my apps.
I'm having this same problem and I agree that it is annoying. I recently updated to dcd 3.1.2 from 3.0.1 with Sprint, and installed the same software as before. The only thing that has really changed is the ROM version.
Is there a cab somewhere to replace/reinstall the dialer?

It's a problem with SPB as I said. Reinstalling SPB will not fix the problem, you need to uninstall it and keep it uninstalled. Test to see if the problem is fixed WITHOUT SPB. It's not a problem with the rom.
Nope - it's the dialer. I'll see if I can find the link; it was posted in the main 3.1.2 thread soemwhere.

Alright well if you don't want to listen to me then that's your choice, but I can tell you right now the problem is NOT the dialer and is SPB. Installing a different dialer on top of the one you have now is a temporary fix and will most likely alter your dialer functions. I'm done arguing about it though so gl.
This was the post I found:
"Just install a new dialer (there are lots of them around in cab form) and that will solve both of your problems (EPST and the dialer popping up). I used "Wizard+reTouched_Dialer2". Google it."
The link I used is http://rapidshare.com/files/73141135/reTOUCHed_Dialer2.cab
Fixed it for me anyway
gcincotta - ur right as usual - it did alter my dialing properties - I lost "plus 1" dialing capability.

Ok well you're not listening to me. YES THIS WILL "FIX" YOUR DIALER POPUP PROBLEM. That dialer breaks the smart functions of the dialer. The actual problem lies with SPB and has NOTHING to do with the dialer. If you uninstall SPB, which is the ACTUAL fix, then your dialer popup will be fixed and you won't have a broken dialer. To each his own though I guess.

I know that this is off topic, but can I ask you something? When you say "lost plus 1 dialing" are you saying that you could dial an international number by dialing plus instead of 011? I have wanted this functionality ever since I went from GSM to CDMA. Please tell if its true or if you meant something else.
There's much to much back and forth nonsense on this forum lately, so I'm not going to add to it. But I will tell you, that with pocket plus 4.02 and this dialer installed:

the problem goes away without affecting smart dialing or +1 dialing-FOR ME. So, as in the other cases, I'd say its fine to express an opinion about how YOUR phone works with your settings and programs, no one can state absolutes, since everyone has different setups.

Yes, this dialer seems to work without breaking the dialer functions.
I wasn't telling him what to do. I wasn't even telling him that by installing another dialer it wouldn't fix the problem. I was stating that the problem itself is not the dialer, and is SPB. That is not an opinion. What people do to their phones is their business.
Well...like i said before this happend BEFORE i installed any programs, which is why i dont think it is spb. BUT, since you think is it SPB, what can i do to fix the problem without changing dialers and without removing SPB. I've never had this problem before the 3.x.x series roms and i would like to keep SPB because of the functionality. Thanks
I don't agree either that it is SPB, because its only shown up on this build, and I have run other builds without this problem. Wouldn't give up SPB. but know of no other way to fix the problem without loading a different dialer.

Ok well if you don't agree that it's SPB that's fine. We can agree to disagree.
I will however say that it's a fact that it's not a problem with the dialer. As I've said before, I've been part of the rigorous testing of 3.0.6 (test build that was never released), 3.1.0 (test build that was never released), 3.1.1, and 3.1.2, all before they are released on here. I've flashed 3.1.2 close to 40 times now both through testing and after release, on two different devices (Verizon xv6800 and Sprint Mogul) and I've never seen this problem arise on a clean rom build (see jpeg attached to see included items in BuildOS for clean build).
I have had this issue as well and I do not use any SPB software. It seems to happen after I send sms messages.
have to concur. I noticed this too. Now I upgraded directly from 2.12 and I do not run and SPB apps.
In my instance I also get PIE and other apps opening. Messaging could be the culprit, seems like I have seen this happen before.
I run on Today
Wisbar
iLauncher
PocketBreeze
PhoneWeaver
Other Apps
Pocket CM and various non active apps.
I am going to try and forcibly minimize messenger via wisbar and see what happens
The only answer then is that one of SPB's dependencies matches something that you people without any SPB software installed have on your devices.
Hey everyone,
This is a new issue and I am not sure what happened but I definitely have an issue that seems to just be with any Angry Birds Game.
They were working fine but I had taken a break for a while from playing them but now I want to and when I open any of them, they look messed up.
It looks like they are trying to play on a small screen and everything is messed up. I can hear the music fine but the graphics are whacked. I tried compatibility mode on and off with no help.
I have recently installed Chainfire so I do not know if the Nvidia plugin may be the culprit or if it is something else entirely.
I did try to uninstall Rio and reinstall it as well and that did not work either.
Anyone have anything that may help? My children would be very appreciative. Thanks again everyone.
Go into Chainfire3D and make sure you default is set to "None".
I'm guessing your default is set to Nvidia and that is causing your problem. I highly recommend you purchase the Pro version of Chainfire3D (if you haven't already) so you can have per app settings.
Thank you. Doing that and unchecking a few other things got it back. On my way to purchase the full version now. Works perfect now. Thanks again.
P.S. Sorry for the other thread, I thought I had backed out before I pushed that one through. I will take care of that.
Glad you got it working!
Hi,
So I just recently got the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and I have to say I'm a bit disappointed. I am familiar with Android and I know what I'm doing (or so I think lol) but some things just aren't working and I don't know if it's me or software limitation. Regardless I'm hoping someone can shedd some light on these...
1. The market is lacking a LOT of applications that are available on phones. Is that right? I thought it would just scale for the most part....I can't even find the official Facebook app on the market. Am I looking in the wrong place or something? Hulu? Netflix??
1a. Some applications that I sideload (mainly widgets) like typoclock or something of that sort....install, but when I go to add the widget it is not there, as if never installed. Even when I try to reinstall it, it says that it will replace the old one so i know for a fact that it installs, but the widgets aren't available, and they arent listed in the installed apps drawer either.
2. It seems kind of sluggish...and I really haven't installed much, even from a cold boot...it's kinda laggy, not as quick as I have seen on some review videos. Quadrant scores around 1400-1500. I Rooted it, installed the latest SunBurst ROM and overclocked to 1.4Ghz and it's still laggy often despite nearing 3000 on quadrant now.
3. So I couldn't get any Netflix apk to work on it stock, so once I rooted, installed Sunburst ROM it came installed with a Netflix app, but I don't think it's official since the icon is orange and has a little android on it. Needless to say THAT app doesn't work and CAN'T be installed (I figure it's cooked onto the ROM) regardless I found a Netflix apk that install and replaces it, and works...but after one day it reverts back to the old netflix and doesn't work. So pretty much everytime I want to use Netflix I have to reinstall and overwrite with the new Netflix apk I found...it's annoying. (and the search function doesn't work on that Netflix either)
I know it's a lot to rant about and a lot of issues, and I love the tab and honeycomb, but I can't believe these issues still persist. I hope someone can help me with one/all of these and I will be forever grateful.
Thanks, hope someone can help...
1a. Try a restart after you install a widget. It seems that if the widget is not made for HC, it doesn't appear before you restart.
i tried rebooting but that didn't help any unfortunately...
There's a netflix 1.3 APK somewhere that sideloads perfectly. I haven't tried it with Touchwiz yet - I haven't even touched Touchwiz.
Try stock ROM first. Your ROM might have broken something. I know Bonsai completely broke USB storage support as an example, and Starburst claims to be the "most complete and fastest Touchwiz experience" which means it's going to have missing and broken things. Any ROM dev making claims like that is compensating for something. The "hacked-icon" Netflix app is an obvious sign they went a LITTLE too far.
Netflix sideload works perfectly on my Tab. Unrooted. TouchWiz. Stock.
i tried netflix fix on starburst rom, it did work but reverted back to fcs after a reboot. i switched to bonsai 3, netflix seems to be working fine even after a reboot.
2. It seems kind of sluggish...
The default launcher is a bit sluggish, it is a honeycomb issue. For me I have seen after a "reboot", the tab does take a couple of minutes to "settle", then it is smooth for me, but if you have lot of widgets on your homescreens it will be sluggish, my experience in any case.
thanks to all you guys for all the replies.
As far as the Netflix, I know I do have the correct apk I think the issue is that it isn't playing nice with the one that is baked into the rom. I guess I will have to install another rom.
However I haven't heard anything on the apps, is that right? There's no Facebook? Anyoneelse having issues with Widgets not appearing?
For Facebook search for an app in the market called 'Friend Me'
Looks great and works great =)
for getting rid of sluggishness try this launcher: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188701

Thanks! Good call, app looks great!
@js931,I'll give that launcher a try and see how it goes.
I understand and feel for you on your problems. My 3rd (and final) Galaxy Tab is on the way to me from Amazon.com. I also have an Asus Transformer on the way as well and the device that gives me the least amount of problems is the device I plan to keep. I want to like the Tab but I don't have high hopes since I'm about to be on my 3rd device. The 2nd one worked perfectly after Touchwiz for a while - even fixed issues I was having such as the typing lag - but the issues I had with the first one (screen and/or Wifi doesn't respond after bringing the device out of sleep) resurfaced a few days ago. The 2nd Tab also had something loose on the inside as it produces a loud rattling noise whenever it vibrates. While that is easily cured by turning off the vibration, I paid $600 for this device and I expect it to be near-perfect. So any little issue I have with this 3rd Tab means it's going back for a refund and I'll keep the Transformer... assuming it behaves like it should, lol.
At any rate, good luck with your issues. The Tab is a beautiful device but seems to be problematic... at least that's my experience with it.

i have an issue with my x7 elite, but i'm not sure if it's ghost touch issues or different, but whenever i'm on google play store, it tries to click and download things, usually in the first page. but when i tilt it sideways (landscape mode), it's working fine.
i found several apps behave the same way, automatic like in FB, clicks random things in Youtube, etc.
don't want to use the customized rom, as it's not optimized for x7 elite. hope you find a solution to your issue.

There is a solution in HTCmania......do a search
I have tried searching HTC mania for days but with my limited spanish and clumsy google translate I did not find anything that fixes problems occurring after FTS_UPGRADE. So I E-mailed the website I bought my Iocean from and they send me this:
Ghost touch problem can be solved by upgrading the firmware, pls use following link to download the firmware to upgrade the tablet.
"http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=2278352545&uk=1831961788&third=2;

I am about to try this but the pdf instructions they provide are chinese so it might take a while.
Will update
Unzip the file
files inside folder must pass to a completely empty SD card and put the SD card into the phone.
go to the file manager
Once inside click on SD card and then we go to the application apk (FTS_Update.apk) we've uploaded to the card
install
Once installed Open File, then to sdcard and press the F15x16_Lib_app.bin file. in FTS Update
Then just give it to "Start" and leave without touching the screen until finished
Reboot
Hey Petertrol,
did this update change something with your problems? I have the same problems like you and search for a solution.
Best Regards
Matzi1009
sorry but after trying to fix it for other ways possible, i had to send it back to China again, thats the only one solution for me and i think the same for you
The update I received did not do any good.
I also had problems with with my screen after FTS_UPGRADE and I was unable to fix it.
I have been following Petertrol for a while on HTC mania, here and on youtube. I'm thinking about sending it back too.
probably a hardware problem
Hello. Few days ago I've got Huawei M5 10
And I've found strange behavior of the touch screen.
Long story short :
If you slowly move finger in one direction, and then change the direction, touch screen doesnt detect changing of direction and doesn't follow the finger. It waits for 10-15 (or more) pixels and only after that it places touch point into correct position.
I wanted to add video but XDA prohibits me
Its not a problem in regular work, but its annoying in games because you can't take aim in any shooters.
Do you have the same?
I haven't gamed much on my 8.4", but when new I initially experienced some buggy scrolling, possibly similar to what you describe, inside web browsers and what not.
If you are experiencing the same, I recommend:
Upgrading to the latest available OTA. (I actually hate upgrading software, but this was forced o me after a boot loop)
Disable/Delete Chrome (so it doesn't take over for Android System Webview)
Uninstall any updates to Android System Webview (after a reset, some buggy behavior returned for me immediately after updating Webview)
There are other things you can do if rooted. But those were the big things that seemed to fix touchscreen behavior for me. fwiw I can't discount that my upgrade to B153 may have helped, but I suspect that Chrome/Webview was the issue all along.
Thanks for answering
I've already updated Android and even tried to play with screen resolution (thought that because of huge resolutions touchscreens have this problem)
I can't paste link to YouTube but you can find the video named 'huawei medipad m5 10 screen lagging?'
I show there a bug.
Notice that in the name of video Mediapad replaced with Medipad. It's okay.
I'm having the same problem as you but i am pretty sure this is a software issue... But it doesn't bother me much as I use my tablet more for work than games
Hi, did anyone find a fix for this problem?
I don't have this problem on my 8.4. I play alot of first person shooters.
