[SOLVED] Phone wakes up immediately after being locked - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there!
I'm on NeatRom 5.2 (4.1.2) with Apolo 4.12, but I've got a problem. Sometimes, immediately after my phone has been locked it wakes up, and I have to unlock and lock it again, because trying to lock it without unlocking won't work (I've tried for smth like 6 times in a row too )
Anybody help please? Thank you so much!
EDIT: I've sorted it out with changing my rom (Neat-->HCT)
EDIT 2: IUpdating NatRom to latest version sorted it out too :good:

You may have another app that is doing something to wake your phone just after it locks - have you installed anything recently?
EDIT: It may be worth going back to cwm and cleaning cache/dalvik - just to make sre your apps are optimised.

Thanks for your reply. I've checked with Wakelock detector if there's something that keeps my phone awake, but I found nothing, and I didn't install something new.
I've tried wiping cache and dalvik too, but it didn't work :banghead:

OK - next step then run GS2RomNuke @hawkerpaul in cwm then reflash your rom and see if the problem persists.

Ouch xD I thought I could avoid this step LOL
I'm gonna take a nandroid and try, and will let u know. :beer:

Its either that or uninstall all of your apps and reinstall one by one I think

So..I've tried uninstalling everything after a clean install and restore of some apps, but the problem remained, do I changed the rom. I'm using HCT rom now, and I've got no problems at all!

And to the ones with root not showing up, can you 'ls /system/xbin' from adb and paste the results?

I cant activate google for the market with this nor the stock rom. I even did *228.
Any suggestions?

Solved issue once I did a reset in settings (found solution through Google for nexus one users)
This might be a dumb question but do u have ur gmail synched and set up?

Girlfriends Fascinate just decided to randomly stop doing anything except showing lights on soft keys after rooting and lag fix. Decided if I've got to restore should try this. First flash I got stuck at a similar issue after VZW logo. Wiped data and cache and was able to boot but entered in to FC hell. Working on flashing back to stock Odin posted in other thread as we speak.
Update: realized I had only wiped data and not cache as well. after doing that was able to flash back to stock, trying this once more.
Update 2: No go, still FCing like crazy. Flashing back to stock.

I had the same issue. Install stock and then Angels. Wipe cache only and it should work. If you cant activate Google do a reset in settings and all is fine.
I'm sorry, but that's exactly what I experienced rooting and running the lag fix on a Vibrant. There is something flawed with the lag fix. I don't know what it is, but this is the 4th experience I've read about that's the exact same as mine.
Could Samsung change the file system with an OTA update? Is that even possible?

All the lag fixes have some issues right now. The best lag fix will come once samsung releases the source code for our phones. See here: http://project-voodoo.org/

I recommend using odin and falling up's odin files. I'd link you, but my phone doesn't link.

Oh No...

My 2nd topic in about 20 mins!
I've just flashed Siyah Kernal but made a mistake and flashed an older version accidently (I flashed 1.3 instead of 1.7)
Now my phone doesn't boot, it gets to the loading screen where it displays model etc and then stops. I can boot into recovery, I was thinking I can just flash the other kernal but I don't have it on my storage.
I wiped cache then davlik cache and then installed the old version and rebooted and now I'm stuck
I'm thinking just wipe data and reflash ROM but I've never messed around with kernals before so I don't know if it's any different
Help is GREATLY appreciated!
If you have an external SD, transfer the updated 1.7rc1 syiah to that, and flash it from recovery.
Should solve the problem.
If it doesnt, wiping and reflashing the rom, then the corect kernel should work as well.

I would start with that.. if any problems occur, then go to wiping.
I would wipe delvic and cache
Update Syiah myself a few times without a wipe. Although I am sure some would recommend a wipe.
I've just put my external SD into its adapter so that my laptop can read it and I get write protection errors.
Can I just wipe data/factory reset and reflash the ROM to gain access to my phone again and then flash the kernal?

first off is the switch on ur adapter set to lock?
Yes if you factory reset and wipe, then install rom, then you can flash the kernel and enjoy all the benefits!:victory:
aaaaand I'm back!
I noticed the little slidy thing on the adaptger and put it the other way and it worked, having that "lock" is pretty ridiculous if you ask me.
I'm all sorted now, I would be useless if it wasn't for the people on this forum
Thank you all so much for the help, whenever stuff like this happens I overact and instantly assume my device is bricked
Thanks to you all!

[Q] Error message, need help

I am running Android 4.2.1 and have not installed or updated any apps over past week. This morning, I switch on my phone and this error popped up (pic). I tried restarting it several times during the day and the error is persistent. My phone feels sluggish but otherwise functions as it should. How do I find out what app is causing this error message? It appears to be system related. Is there an app in Play Store that can tell me exactly what is causing this error?
BTW, I rooted my phone some 2 months ago and everything works well so I doubt it is because my phone is rooted. All my apps installed via Play Store so shouldn't be any malwares involved.
Mainly this error is caused by using a particular rom.
Changing the rom might solve the problem.

hmm.
Then try wiping the dalvik cache and the cache partition from recovery.
try it and then report..
OK, I will try your suggestions. Now I have to read up on just how to do that

Sorry I could not manage to try cleaning the cache because my phone decided to brick itself the following morning. Just like that. This morning, alarm on my phone went off like usual and I always do a restart to be fresh for the day. The phone is stuck at green android man. I did a power and vol+ and got a dead android man. I created another thread asking for help in reviving my dead phone. If you have comments, I will appreciate it.

Stuck in a loop with CM

I've been running 10.1.2, but this morning was notified of update. So I installed the update.
However, the update killed my Wi-Fi, in that I was getting signal, but no internet connection.
So I tried to roll back to 10.1.2, but now have the constant CyanogenMod loading animation and it's been like it for an hour. So I held down the power and volume button and it does exactly the same thing, reboots and get's stuck with the animation?
I can't turn if off or anything?
Can someone please help?

Have had similar problems would love a dev input here,think it has something to do with having to separately flashing a compatible kernel? Or a bug in cm recovery when whipe? Anyways flash meow kernel and ROM, then in twmp recovery wipe all under advanced, then reinstall cm, that should fix it for you.

[Q] HTC Desire X Keeps Restarting!

Hello,
Today I was charging my phone via USB and suddenly my phone restarted, Since then the phone keeps restarting as soon as it reaches the home screen (waits for all the widgets to load) then restarts again.
I am now making a nandroid backup.
Anybody else facing the problem?
Possible fixes?
Thanks
You tried pulling the battery? Or, wipe cache and dalvik cache from recovery?

That's fine then, definitely the best choice...
Random reboots are mostly accredited to kernel and not ROM. (however possible in ROM as well).
First thing you should do next time if such thing happens is to flash stock boot or use a different boot then u are currently using.

I did the same, Returned to full stock. But then the problem occurred again after I finished setting up all my apps. Also I found out what the problem was.
The issue is with the latest update of DoubleTwist Music Player App. As soon as I installed that app and opened it, My phone froze and then the restarting issue started. Then I removed the app apk from Recovery and now it works fine.
So anyone having this issue try the above solution.
