So I have had some weird issues. I was running on Slimbean when this started. Out of nowhere my device started freezing from time to times, like if I was writing a text message or something. Everything would just stop and then I had to reboot the system to get it functional again. This started to get annoying so I did a clean reinstall of Slimbean, formatted system and cache etc. That didn't help so I decided to change the rom. I installed another AOSP rom, Carbonrom but that did't help (of course I did a clean install). After that I decided to try if changing the rom to Sammy based would help. I was wrong.
At this point I taught that something with my hardware would be broken. So I installed triangleaway, formatted system and then installed samsung's official firmware with odin. Then I did a factory reset from system settings. My plans were to send the phone to warranty but strangely after running the stock rom for about a week, the freezing problems were gone, when earlier it was a daily thing.
So now I'm wondering what could have it been and why? If I reroot and install a custom rom now, will the freezing start again?

Hi there,
I installed custom ROM on my Lenovo S890 phone, which works great and has all I need. But there is this problem (similar like in this post forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125812). When I try wake up the phone from standby mode, all I see is a dark screen with vertical stripes of several colors all over it. I can however set volume and even the display responses after pushing buttons it vibrates. So it works, but the screen is broken.
When I install original ROM, everything works fine. But when I install any of these custom ROMs found on needrom.com/phone-roms/lenovo/s890/ I have the same issue with the screen.
Does anyone had similar issue with his phone? I'm currently trying to fix this problem with software jBART v0.7.9 - I decompiled the original ROM that works fine and also decompiled the custom ROM I want to fix. Then I'm trying to copy files from original to custom ROM, hoping somehow I overwrite possibly broken files and everything should work afterwards.
Any help or advice is welcome
So little update:
I am still experiencing the same problem. On official chinese ROM it works fine (but chinese ROM is not useful at all for me). I installed 6 custom ROMs and on each of them I have this same problem with screen.
I discovered, that the problem is not instant - when I wipe all data and make brand new installation of ROM, first thing that pops up is Settings wizard (the app from Google where you select language, enter your gmail account etc). And while in this app, the screen lock works fine!
After I am done with settings and exit this wizard, the home screen loads. And then the problem with black screen starts.
Now, I tried to delete default launcher.apk and replaced it with 4 different, but the problem is still the same at the same point. So while I am at the settings it's ok, after I am finished with settings and exit the app, it brokes.
Does anyone have any idea, where the problem could be?
I recently bought this phone, and I am searching for many hours to find out how to flash a custom ROM. I found some instructions in bad english, I found ROMs with missing files or with with problem in unzipping, I found drivers that I need to install but do not seem to get installed, etc etc.
I am very confused and I am afraid to do something that I am not sure of, because I may brick my phone.
WellBloud_cz, please tell me the steps to install a custom ROM (in brief, I am not a computer newbie) and then I will tell you if I have the same problem on the screen.

Hi, first of all - do you really need to flash custom ROM? Is there anything wrong with your current ROM? You have to consider all the facts, if it's worth the trouble. If you want install custom ROM, just because it looks cooler, you can install different launcher/change theme etc. If you have serious problem with your current ROM, like it does not work like you want, then I suggest you try diferrent ROMs...
If you still want to install custom ROM, then
backup everything everytime!
if you can switch your phone to recovery mode, install from recovery mode - you can download a .zip file containing ROM (you can try some from needrom.com/phone-roms/lenovo/s890/
after the installation make sure everything works properly, so you don't have to debug for a year (for example - I recently discovered that battery didn't last even for a single day... After close inspection I manage to fix it - the media app was the problem, it used all of phone's energy, so I have to restart it and then everything is fine and battery holds up to 3,5 days)
if you can't install from recovery mode, try flashing your phone with Flash tools - make sure you have good recovery mode included (like TWRP)
then you have 2 options - either install via recovery mode .zip files or flash whole new ROM on your phone via Flash tools
if you success, make sure you can set your IMEI - otherwise you can't send messages and make no phone calls. If you have IMEI set to some nonsense like 123456789, then download and use MtkDroidTools v245, where you can root your phone and also change your IMEI numbers
also make sure that the ROM you are installing is in your favorite language. If not, you can use More locale app, which translates most of the content. If you want, you can make your own translations with jBart, but it's long process
lastly check if ROMs have Google play, because majority of apps can be downloaded from there

Unfortunatelly I did not solve it, but i got rid of it by simply finding another ROM and installing it instead. What I actually did - downloaded original chinese ROM and installed it. Everything on it worked, so I modified it and now it's almost perfect

Hello everyone!
I request your help please, because sometime my phone goes stuck and I have to reboot each time.
First, here is my configuration :
XWLSW NeatRom Lite 4.8 installed with full wipe (Philz kernel) + Blue Ginger Plus Theme + Apex Launcher + Fancy Widget (clock + weather) on my main page.
I have to precise, that before installing the NeatRom, I had an older ICS ROM (CriskeloServanTeam V12), and this kind of stuck used to happening on my device, that's why I decided to install a new ROM.
Here is the 2 last situtations when my phone was stuck :
- I'm charging my phone just before going to sleep (in fly mode), and in the middle/end of the night, surely after my battery reach 100%, I'm looking to the clock of my phone : it display 2h31 (instead of the real time 5h23), probably at the time when my phone goes stuck.
Symptoms : Time was stuck, Apex Launcher close, Status bar is missing on the lockscreen, impossible to goes through the lockscreen, but it is possible to reboot (luckily!).
- In the daily use of my phone, I decided to activate the data by the status bar on the lockscreen, then I switch off the screen. 15-20 min later, I want to unlock my screen, but impossible, it is stuck.
Symptoms : Status bar is missing on the lockscreen, impossible to goes through the lockscreen, but it is possible to reboot (luckily!).
So my questions :
Why this is happening?
Is anyone else already have this kind of stuck with this configuration?
What can I do to fix that?
Thanks a lot!
Sound like a sod to me. What kernel are you using? Did you do format before you changed to neat rom from ics rom??
Kernel is responsible for these actions.I had so many and also random freezes with DorimanX kernel...ahh ...Now I have Apolo Kernel and eveything is okay.No freezes,and awesome battery.Try out Apolo kernel And also do a factory reset,and don't install themes or mods...run it clean for a few days,see iif it still presists.
First, thank you both for your answers.
Then, my kernel is the one that goes with the NeatRom Lite version 4.8 : XWLSW-5.06.1-PhilZ.
I think my problem is a Sleep of Death too. Yes I did a wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format system, and format preload before installing the Rom. Is it normal I have a SoD after I did all of this?
Else ok for the Kernel, I will try the Apolo. Is it ok to install it with the NeatRom lite 4.8 ?
Well you did the install ok so I dont see the problem philz kernel is good for neat rom. You should try apollo kernel reg first. But I would say test the rom with out the mods and then flash mods one by one. But like I said philz is good for neatrom. Try factory reset which will clear the mods and test it with philz first.
Ok thanks I will try that.
Just another question, is the Apex Launcher is considered as a "mod" and should I use the TW launcher some days instead, or can I still use the Apex Launcher (the freeze cannot come from this app) ?
I shouldn't think apex would cause this. Probably, clock widget is but not to sure.
I just noticed I had the debug mode activated on my phone (I don't know why? maybe I activate it by mistake? but I don't remember). Could the recurring Sleep of Death happens because of this?
Nope. SOD's are not caused by usb debugging. Follow andrewwright's advice, he knows what he's talking about.
Sent from a galaxy far, far away
simply go back to stock rom
Yes but ... no I like custom Roms, so I will try all I can before going back to a stock Rom
I did some research and I think this is not really SoD that happening to to my phone.
Effectively I read that SoD is the behavior in which the phone goes into "sleep" mode... typically screen off, and then won't wake up with power button.
However, when my lockscreen is frozen, I can still push the power button and access the power menu to reboot my phone, I don't have to remove the battery.
So if this is not a SoD, what is it?
So what did you try? If its still happening and it was me I would now format the lot,reinstall the rom with nothing on it. No mods and no apps and see if it happens again. So no apex no widget and no flashing of any mods. Then test that for two days. If problems are still there I would try a different rom to rule out software. I no neat is solid and so is philz kernel. Im
I changed the battery (it was recent, less than 1 year, but you never know, maybe defective).
I reinstalled the same rom, but with no mods, no themes, and no restoring apps from Titanium (but I installed them by downloading them by the Playstore).
Almost 2 days fine, but yesterday it froze again.
So now I will try to format, but before, do you think a scandisk plus a defragment on my SD Card could help?
Yes that help clear out any crap left over from different roms.

I did a chkdsk/scandisk on my intern SD Card, and installed the last version of Philz kernel (5.11.2).
Atm, I still had no freeze. If I have one, I will try to format the lot and reinstall the rom with nothing on it as you said.
Fingers crossed mate :thumbup:
that`s happened with the problem with the base rom i mean the stock rom that`s i flashed with odin i changed it an every thing is ok now
I finally format my phone, not because I had freeze again, but because some of my app had strange behavior.
So now I just have the NeatROM Lite version 4.8 installed, with no mods nor theme. Waiting some days to see if it is still stable.
Hard thing to do if you have it set up the way you want but the best way mate. You should find neat Rom is solid. Do you have stock kernel? Philz?
So the other day my S3 gave up the ghost, and developed the hard-brick "QHSUSB_DLOAD" error. I have insurance so I was overnighted a new phone, and am sending the old one away. I believe this was related to a long-term power button issue I was having, perhaps a virus, or something. I had not changed anything to the ROM I was using since about October, and the issue just happened now in May.
At any rate, the new S3 I received is an MJB version, Android 4.3, Knox and all that other good stuff. After several failed attempts, I found a method to root this phone and disable Knox. The Warranty Bit is already tripped, so clearly I'm not sending this phone back until it hard bricks as well. I am trying to install the StockMOD ROM that is very popular, however I am being plagued by problem after problem.
I was able to flash a version of CWM Recovery onto my phone, but it was too old and couldn't mount any of the folders. Using ROM Manager, I was able to flash an update to my Recovery, and now it mounts and views all folders properly. However, when I go to install the StockMOD ROM, I continuously get a Status 7 error, something about "expects 5 args, got 3." I wiped the data, cache, and Dalvik, but kept getting this error. So, I had to recover my backup of stock, which didn't go well either. Once my backup was installed, all of my apps kept crashing. Gapps, ROM Manager, everything kept giving me constant FC errors. I had to wipe my data, cache, and Dalvik again and go back to factory default, and reinitialize the phone. Luckily I haven't installed anything of importance on here yet.
A quick search through here states that I need to use TWRP as my Recovery. I've flashed TWRP several times, first using the 2.6... version and then the most recent 2.7.0.0 version, and neither of these will mount any of my folders. It just gives me a litany of errors trying to mount the various locations. I've done Fix Permissions and everything else, TWRP will just NOT mount anything. Other folks say I need the latest PhilZ Recovery. I've downloaded the latest PhilZ Touch 6 and flashed it via Odin. It is giving me the same errors as regular CWM, Status 7, "expecting 5 args, got 3."
I don't know what else to do. My S3 that ran Android 4.0 was so much easier. I had that thing rooted and running a TW based ROM with Nova launcher in about 30 minutes. This phone has been a disaster since I turned it on. I'm just trying to get a 4.3 TW based ROM. I like the Samsung Camera, Calendar, Clock, Messaging, and Contacts apps far better than AOSP versions. But I also want much more customization to my notification drawer toggles. Stock TW doesn't have the toggles I use frequently like the data toggle as well as the torch toggle.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong, because unlike a lot of folks out there, once I find a ROM I like, I stick with it. I'm not constantly updating, changing, or searching for the newest version of Android. There's nothing wrong with that, it just isn't my cup of tea. So does anyone know what I need to do? At this point, I'm about to just give up and use Nova over top of rooted stock TW and call it a day.
Thanks!

Everything is stock except the recovery. I'm using CWM 6.0.4.7 with PhilZ Touch 6. I'm still using the stock TW 4.3 ROM that shipped with the phone. The only exception is that I'm rooted now.
I suggest you to go back to a 4.1 official stock rom with odin to be sure to have no more issue.
This can help you : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/restore-to-stock-rom-galaxy-s3-i9300-t2187081
Also, don't forget to backup your apps with titanium backup and all your sms :good:

Unfortunately, I've heard that it is not possible to revert to anything prior to 4.3 once a phone comes factory installed with 4.3, due to all of the security enhancements and etc. My kernel, modem, and baseband are all factory stock 4.3 MJB. Everyone else on the boards, under various other topics, warn of immediate and sudden death to the phone if you attempt to install a baseband prior to 4.3 MJB.
I'm very surprised to hear that, because recently i've flash stock 4.3 rom and then go back to 4.1.2 to flash a 4.4 rom without any issue and i've got nothing for issues.
Maybe it depends on which country you are ( i'm from France ) ? For what i know , there is a VERY little chance that this downgrade cause dammage to your phone

Tried TWRP?
So I have got this Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 3G 10.1" that has been lying in a cupboard for a around a year, mainly because I've been busy Now there's a family member of mine who would really need a tablet so I thought this one would be perfect for her!
From thinking I went on to doing and started with getting rid of the stock software and installing some nice custom ROM.
As I found out i couldn't use USB (probably busted data-cable), I rooted the tab using KingRoot and went on installing CWM recovery. Afterwards long story short: I've tried both CWM and TWRP, different ROM and android versions (Lineage, CM, Slim etc.) and different GApps packages from different developers but the problem still seems to come up :crying:
The problem itself is that when I've installed any of the above mentioned ROMs, all the GApps seem to not have been installed correctly (even though the installation process in recovery went smoothly) and basically none of them works (notifications saying that any GApp has stopped keep on coming up and I can't find any Google app in the menu except something things like "com.google.android..." or "com.android.vending...") otherwise everything seems perfectly fine.
Maybe there are others here experiencing the same issue or there's someone who knows how to fix this here, any help will be very appreciated :good:
Hello,
First, have you checked that the ROM you flashed was fully compatible with your device? Yes, this is obvious, but I have to ask.
Second, I'm not a ROM flashing via custom recovery fan... The best way to efficiently flash a ROM in my opinion is Odin-Download mode but whatever (your USB port is screwed, so pfu.)
Redownloading apps doesn't work for you? (updating the apk may fix that!)

Yes, I do have used ROMs compatible with my device as they've all are made for espresso3g (which is my device).
I know it's not really the best way but I'll keep on trying with custom recovery for some more time and then perhaps try buying a new cable, and see if that works.
Tried installing Google Play Store from APK both on a clean ROM without GApps and with, but it still doesn't run and keeps on saying that either Google Play Store or "com.google.process.gapps" has stopped.
Alright...
I'm out of idea x/

Hello...!
You could try the following....
1. make absolutely sure you are using the correct version of gapps for the custom rom you are currently using. If your custom rom is on android 6, you need gapps for android 6 for example.
2. after flashing gapps wipe cache/dalvik and make a factory reset BEFORE exiting twrp. You will lose personal data but since you are preparing to give the device to somebody else that should not be much of a concern.
Let me know if it helps, if it does not, I might be able to try and provide additional suggestions.
Good luck!

Hi and thanks for your reply!
1. The ROMs I've been trying to install are all android 6.0.1 and I've been trying with different OpenGApps packages for the 6.0 version which should work (except CM 12 which is android 5.1 with which I've tried OpenGApps and A-Gapps for Android 5.1).
2. Tried that with 3 different ROMs today and the results are following: Slimrom gets stuck in setupwizard which doesn't start, CM 12 starts but the same error as first seems to appear (I get notifications about GApps which stop working) and Lineage bootloops the lineage start screen.

Ok...
This is what I would do if it was my device and I was facing what you are describing. It might take some time and a little patience to do everything described here, but it might also work.
1. Usin Odin, flash latest available official rom for the device. Let it boot and complete setup.
2. Use odin and use CF autoroot to root. Again boot and complete setup.
3. Flash Twrp. Enter Twrp and flash latest flashable supersu.zip. At this time I believe is version 2.82. Again boot and let it reach your welcome screen.
4. Enter Twrp. Enter advanced wipe. Wipe everything except external SD and usb at least 3 times. Do not exit twrp.
5. Install you rom. Do not exit Twrp.
6. After installing your rom, Twrp will ask you if you want to wipe cache/dalvik. "Yes" but DO NOT reboot.
7. Install correct version of gapps for your custom rom (correct both android version and architecture version). Again twrp will ask you to wipe cache/dalvik. "Yes" and this time reboot.
See what happens. If it gets stuck, try entering twrp again and do a factory reset only, only once and reboot again.
If that fails again... I will at a loss here myself too...
I did a quick search here on xda on P5100, I am providing some links that you can take a look at. You probably already searched yourself but you never know...

If nothing else helps, perhaps the best way to go around this would be to find a custom rom with at least some google apps pre-installed, in order to save you the trouble you are currently facing.

Maybe there are others here experiencing the same issue or there's someone who knows how to fix this here, any help will be very appreciated :good:

Hey, just try uninstalling Google play services and install them again. I faced the same issue and now it's all working on my Samsung Galaxy Core 2
