All roms cause the same issue? if the problem exist on all rom than it is app problem. and why do you want to shake just to take screenshot?

I didn't say all I said i've tried a few roms and this seems to be the same however it was fine when I was running 4.1.2, shake I find is really useful and also doesn't send notifications in snapchat when I screenshot lol

[Q] Whatsapp force closing when trying to share an image

Hey everyone. Whatsapp keeps force closing on me when I try to share an image from the gallery application. From within whatsapp it's fine. But only while sharing from the gallery application.
I wrote Whatsapp over a week ago and as usual they don't answer. So I'm not sure. I doubt it's the phone because I've tried 3 different ROMs and I've had the same issue with all of the roms. So I don't know what to do. It's not that big of a deal, but it is kind of a bother. Sometimes I just get a black screen and I have to back out completely and just go into whatsapp itself to do it.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Solved: Whatsapp wrote me back today and the woman pointed me to the updated version they had on their website which totally fixed my issues! Thanks whatsapp hehe.
It works for me just fine...dont know why you have the issue..
infact i never had this issue in the various stock ROM's i have used in the past
I am on whatsapp version 2.7.431
If you are rooted try fix permissions , ROM manager has it... CWM recovery has it..might be few other ways too...
also check the settings in whatsapp, if the system status is showing working OK...
check if it works when you are on wifi...

I'm not rooted, that's the thing. All the roms have been stock (either an updated or not updated OS). Everything else on my phone works except this! It's strange. If I am not rooted can I still check permissions or anything else that you said? I'm also not interested in rooting. Thanks for the help
SOLVED! See first post

[Q] Instagram has been crashing for months,

Right now I have 10.1.3-RC1-quincyatt installed my AT&T note 1
Instagram and the phone crashes when you try to take a picture.
It has been doing this on the nightlies for over the last several months.
Anyone else notice this, does anyone care? I have uninstalled several times, no fix.
Can someone else please confirm this issue.
thanks
There is no fix .I heard instageam has to update to getnit fixed but maybe I'm wrong

Its because the CM drivers conflict with the camera. It has been discussed in a few threads and I don't recall a solution other than use another rom.
well if someone finds a fix with this release please let me know. this is my wifes phone and she is annoyed at me.

Flash stock jellybean or black jelly or ICS.. Problem fixed
RoOtBoX4/20..4AcEs4/21..SpEcCd+RoBoToEd+ViPeRd. 2$HAYNE!!!
if the CM drivers conflict, does that mean any CM builds for any phones dont work with Intagram? or is it just for the Note?
my other photo apps work.
Try going to Developer Options and Disabling HW Overlay. It worked for me on some 4.2.2 ROM's like JellyBeer and such...

[Q] Notification issue in CM11 Temasek ROM

Hi,
I am running Temaseks CM11 on my S3. Currently v12. I have not flashed another kernel.
This is an awesome ROM but I have one issue with notifications. I do not get notifications for certain apps (mostly games). I have always had this issue on this ROM (v8, v10, v12) but not on the original Samsung ROM. I would have posted this question in the official thread of this ROM but I am a new user so I am not allowed....
Anyone have an idea of what could be wrong? I have of course checked that each app I want notifications from have that enabled, both in the app and also in the app manager.

I hope people want the ability to chose themselfes to use/not use notifications
Anyways, an example i noticed is in a swedish game called QuizKampen where I compete with friends in various questions. When my opponent has answered and is waiting on my turn, the game should notify me. However I do not receive these anymore...
This is not a dealbreaker for the ROM (I Love it! ) But it would be nice to find out why these are not working.
Also, thanks for your attention and assistance!! I appreciate it!

I think getting such notifications are nowdays disabled(m not sure) but i will try to ask this question from your side to the rom developer, i m quite busy now so i will post it later.. and do you get this problem with only temasek's cm11 or on other Rom too?

i thought u got these errors on other roms too.. well let me explain about this problem.. this is an unofficial built which has not yet completely been bug free, there are lots of other issues too. since cm11 is not yet official(only source code is available) and lots of Devs are trying to fix lots of issues. until now only the android kk 4.4 and cm code has been merged and fixing all the issues thats not normal, so its worth not to ask the questions to them now that this and that is not working. also temasek is building this unofficial built by himself, he is solving the greater issues himself and also adding some new features, and i m sure this problem will be soon fixed by someone. anyway i will try to point him this issue.

I got a tip in temasek's thread about that the issue was in titanium backup so I cleared the data in the app and then removed and reinstalled it. Now I receive notifications again! It was quite weird since I have tried reinstalled the app earlier without success...
Anyways, thanks for your assistance!

[SOLVED] Lockscreen Issue with PAC ROM

Hi,
Hopefully I am writing in the correct place about my issue.
I have the Xperia Z2, rooted, bootloader unlocked, CWM recovery.
I flashed the Unofficial PAC ROM by "rcstar6696" and it works fine with tons of features, my problem is that the phone would not lock securely.
I tried to use PIN, Pattern, Gesture locks and they all do not function, the phone will still unlock with slide.
I tried to reset the phone, same thing. I looked all over the forums and could not find anything about this with Z2.
My friend owns a Nexus 5 and I rooted and flashed PAC ROM onto his phone and the Pattern lock works like a charm.
Is anyone facing the same issue? Any suggestions anyone?
Thanks.
EDIT: I have flashed the latest version from 20th of September cleanly and still facing the same issue.
EDIT: after a few resets and wipes, I noticed that when installing/uninstalling apps. The lock chosen works for a limited time (Usually 6 hours) and then stops randomly.
I am still trying to identify if it's an app causing this.
EDIT: ISSUE SOLVED !!
I reset the device one more time with a clean boot, then while setting it up, I did not connect to my google account. I skipped most of the steps, then set the lock screen, rebooted, added my google account manually.
and VOILA ! phone securely locked.
I do not know how my google account caused this, but it seems to be the reason at the moment.
The port for Z2 may have some bugs so post your problem in the rom thread and the devloper may reply and explain

Yes I understand that, and I tried posting it there, apparently I need to have at least 10 posts to post on a developing thread.

I've been using pac rom since its release, I have no issue setting any lockscreen security. Pattern, pin etc all work for me, it has to be either a setting or xposed module causing the issue

Xposed would cause it, or any mods or tweeaks because pac is framework sensitive which means even simple mods can cause huge issues

Yes of course, but I just flashed it cleanly and no apps whatsoever (except GApps & Stock) , and still the issue is the same.
I even did not change any of the ROM built-in settings and still, no secure locking.
Oh and trust me, PAC ROM is amazing (if it wasn't for this issue) , made me hate every minute I spent in CM and TouchWiz (on my old S4) :good:
Did you do a complete wipe? I wiped all partitions including media before installing pac.
And yes pac is excellent and perfectly stable, only issues I have is nav bar dpi seems to reset after every reboot, but if I toggle say screen timeout via quick settings it changed to what it should be and active display reboots my phone but I don't use it anyway

I'm not sure how to do that, however, I managed to solve it.
And I am facing the same with nav bar and the PACperformance app, it just doesn't stick after reboot.
EDIT: actually, I just tried a few reboots, the nav bar seems to be fine to me, I did however change the icons via "Android L Navigation Bar" found in the xposed downloads. Maybe that caused it to "stick"?
as for the active display, I would like to use it, but I am a pixel maniac, and that feature isn't FHD yet I guess, so I am not using it either for the moment.

Problem with Ayat

First of all, just so you know this a religious app, and I won't be discussing any religion on this thread so please don't
The app is supposed to download images and show them. but the problem is, when running MM I was able to use it perfectly but when upgrading to N after the splash screen the app shows a white screen.
Tried to downgrade to MM and use the app for a couple of house then upgraded to N and the same problem happens.
If anyone could help with this.
This sounds more like a problem with the app not working on N, so your best bet is to try and get in contact with the developers of the app and have them fix it.

that's what I thought, but when I had the P9 lite running nougat, it was working perfectly, I also asked a friend to test it on 7.1.1 and it did work
So I think the problem is with Vulkan API;
I can't see why you went through the trouble of downgrading for that app while there are plenty of way better alternatives.

Well not that much, on MM it was running perfectly, but because of the Vulkan API in N it didn't work
