Hi,
so I've recently moved back from CM to unrooted stock on my Xperia Z2.
Suddenly I have this popup virus, which pops up almost every time I open a Web page, telling me to download some battery-app.
Doesn't just happen in Chrome, happens in every browser.
Things I've tried:
1) factory reset
2) virus scan with almost every anti virus app
3) flashing another stock rom
4) manually searching the Android folder for suspect folders
Help would be enormously appreciated, this is driving me mad.

when you say suddeny you mean right after you install the stock ROM ?

Since i installed ICS on my SGS2 i have been getting a strange error. When I, for example, try to open a photo on my facebook app or surfing the internet on my browser, I get an error that says econnreset-connection reset by peer, and i just cant seem to find a solution. No problems with wifi, only with data connection. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? That doesnt happen on android 2.3.
Thank you
Strange/unusual errors....... Wipe your phone using *2767*3855#
Remember it will erase your contents on internal storage.
Nope, that didn't solve the problem
Sometimes i have to click refresh maybe twenty times to open a web page and still it doesn't load them completely. Strangely, I don't have that problem on 2.3 android.
Flash firmware again or try different firmware .

On every ICS based rom it's the same
Hey guys,
i need help our here. i am facing a rather odd problem which started yesterday. whenever i tried to open gallery, it says "
Not enough space. Delete unnecessary items such as download softwares, videos and documents."
I have factory reset the device 3 times deleted everything, flashed using ODIN but no avail. Any body has any solution for this?
I am using:
Stock ROM XXMEB5
Stock Kernel
Stock Recovery
EDIT: Finally Solved the Problem. The phone was not resetting properly, so for users facing this problem there are 2 possible solutions:
1. Flash stock rom, goto stock recovery and from there wipe data if CWM does not do it properly (In my case CWM did not do it properly)
2. The other solution, the info i figured out was that it had to do something with a folder in Android/Data directory. Try to delete folders one by one to see if this fixes the error

I recently updated OTA to 4.1.2 and have suddenly got this same problem today, im not technically that great so all i did was save the files i wanted to keep and did a factory reset but nothing has changed. I can open my pictures in Smart Gallery Lock Free but im also having the problem that nothing deteles properly, everything i delete re-appears when i re enter Smart Gallery
I have tried removing the files directly from "My Files" but it will only work on the extSdCard not sdcard0 its says deleted but doesnt go anywhere.
I have looked at your point 2. but i dont know what i can delete without making things worse
Hope somebody can help

Hi, I just experienced this one on my Samsung Galaxy Chat, latest android release. Here's what happened:
- installed Instagram
- took a couple of pictures with it
- took a picture with camera
- tried to open galley and got the "no space" message
- restarted phone, no change
- uninstalled instagram
- gallery works fine now.
Hope it helps.

well, this worked for me. how can i use instagram now?
whenever i reinstall instagram the issue with the gallery comes back.
I'm running ARHD 21.0 on my One and this problem has been happening for quite a few versions but isn't that big of a deal that I needed it solved right away, now it's just annoying.
I cannot download any files from either chrome or the stock browser. From chrome the download won't even start, if I use the stock browser it will start but as soon as it starts up it will say "Download Unsuccessful" and that's it. This happens for pictures, videos, Rom files (which i used to download straight to the phone to avoid using my laptop to transferring the file). Now if i go onto the facebook app i can save those pictures.
I've wiped the cache and data from both browsers and the downloads app but those didn't solve anything. I have done multiple wipes while upgrading ROMs.
Anyone else have this problem, and possibly know a solution?
Thanks in advance.
Hey guys, weird issue: my "My Apps" tab in the Google Play store won't show up. It just loads and loads and never appears. I also can't download new apps (they just "download" forever with zero progress), and I can't install them remotely from my desktop either.
I've tried wiping caches (all of em, many times, in many combinations), and factory restores -- those help for a while but the issue always returns. I've tried deleting my account and readding it, the works.
I upgraded to 4.3 by flashing the Nordic build, and then rooting that (unlocked bootloader). That's (as best as I can recall) when the issue arose.
Does anyone have any idea what might be going on? Is there a best way to just completely zero out the tablet, and then flash fresh clean firmware (preferably that is rootable)?
Thanks a ton for any help, I'm really at a loss here.
So I totally jacked up my phone and I don't know what else to do. I have the Galaxy S3 tmobile (sgh-t999). I had rooted it over a year ago and everything was fine until today. I had used Odin and set up the clockworkmod... rom... thing. Of course now I doubt I even did that correctly, maybe I'm just in over my head...anywho...
I was trying to transfer some files from my pc to the phone. (kies air never worked for me) Well, I had plugged in my phone and in windows explorer it showed something along the lines of 'samsung mtp phone' when I opened it up only 2 folders showed... media and data. The data folder looked like the list of files/folders I would see when I'm in the file manager on the phone but everything listed were showing ad unknown file types. No option to open anything up. The media folder was the same but only listed my pictures and music.
Well, i had rebooted phone and computer, reinstalled usb drivers, same result. So I guessed that maybe my rom version was outdated or something. No luck on figuring out how to update, so I had the briliant (sarcasm) idea to try a different rom. Long story short on that mess, the new rom didn't improve anything with help of transferring files from pc. Then I decided maybe factory reset would fix the issue.
Here comes more ignorance on my part, apparently the new mod I put in was removed but the original stayed. Fine whatever. Here's where my phone it jacked up...
First off, I don't have my notification bar (I've checked in every setting menu, no avail)
I am also missing my web browser (tried downloading from play store which leads to next issue)
I cannot download anything from the play store, I click on install and nothing happens, no error message, nothing (I had attempted to download the .apk file for google chrome and move it onto my phone via memory card but when I click on it to install it says 'unable to find application to perform this action')
Now trust me, I have tried clearing cache, clearing data, app permissions, force stop, uninstall updates and I've done a factory reset 5 times. I apologize for the long post, but I just want to give all the info I can and hope to no end that I can get my phone functional again. What else can I do??
wow such a long letter
ok let me think about it
and tell about it soon as possible
Update....
I got the idea to flash the stock rom back onto the phone. After I flashed it and did another factory reset, I have been able to get my phone functional again. Everything is working fine. Even the phone doesn't know it had been rooted. Currently I am getting everything updated while it is still stock, I'll then just root it to get rid of the bloatware... no more tinkering.
