Since I've installed Rom 1.40, I've literally never been able to use Bluetooth without doing two consequtive soft resets. Bad case of "insufficient driver memory" -- I don't know if anybody else has it that bad? I've read all the posts about this and nothing seems to help in my case (BA with Rom 1.40, BT 3900, NOT running SPB Pocket plus).
Anyway, I did a routine pc backup just now with Sprite, which kills all processes first. When the backup is complete, it always prompts to perform a soft reset (in order to resume all processes that are normally loaded at startup, I guess). I was wondering what would happen if I didn't do this so I pressed cancel. Then I tried to turn on Bluetooth -- and voilà, it worked.
Ok, guess it's pretty logical, anyone could have figured out that some running process must cause the "insufficient driver memory" error. But I'd like to examine this further and find out which process exactly, hoping I might one day be able to use Bluetooth by killing that process (if it's nothing vital, off course) instead of doing my usual two soft resets.
So my question is: does anyone know of an application that can show and kill running processes (more selectively than Sprite Backup does), and that isn't too large?
This is a great question.
Ever since 1.40 has been installed, I feel like my SX-66 just "isn't the same" anymore.
I am not sure if it has to do with the 1.40 upgrade, or another app I installed, but I tell you...
I need to suspend the unit and turn it back on to get Wi-Fi to work sometimes.
I need soft-resets for the BT driver to work...
I'll often put it in the cradle and activesync starts and then stops right away...
(And plus I am stuck with the buzzing oscillator, too).
This has gone from my #1 favorite PPC in the world, to something that is getting more and more annoying.
I wonder how things would have been if I left the OLD firmware, the OLD EXT-ROM, and the OLD Radio ROM, right out of the box...
Strange...
Maybe a new ROM will come out soon enough that solves all these problems.
I do hope someone responds to this thread.
It would be great if we could find out which process is preventing the BT radio from working. (Although, maybe it's just the number of processes, and/or the memory used....)
I am going to try allocating more program memory and see what happens...
Thanks for your answer. Problems here, apart from Bluetooth:
WiFi -- Often can't turn it on. This is an known problem on the forum. My workaround: if I turn it on and off immediately after a soft reset, before I do anything else, it generally works fine when I need it later. Otherwise, I have to soft reset again.
Active Sync -- Sometimes slow, sometimes connects and disconnects again, sometimes does nothing at all. Also, there's a growing number of stored e-mail messages that get sync'ed almost every time, even though nothing's changed. Other than that, it usually works ok.
Whistling screen -- NO, fortunately this hasn't happened to me yet. I hope I stay safe, because from what I've read it's a pain... :?
I remember I had some WiFi and BT problems before I installed 1.40, and besides I really really want Media Player 10 so downgrading is not an option...
Well, even if the problem is the number of running processes rather than a specific one, I still hope we'll be able to kill some non-vital ones to free up driver memory...
This morning, I tried PHM Task Manager 0.1 which allows you to view running processes and, theoretically, end them, but every process I tried to end just stayed right where it was (even after refreshing the screen)!? Are there any other task managers that can do this? Anyone?
Please report if you had any luck after allocating more memory. Although I read somewhere that the amount of memory for loading drivers is limited by default, and that allocating more overall working memory doesn't help... I've tried it myself, allocating as much memory as I could (probably about 40-50 MB free program memory), but still had the "insufficient memory" issue with Bluetooth.
A way to get bluetooth working everytime
It might not be the easiest way to get your bluetooth working but it does work everytime. First thing you do is set your phone to flight mode. After that then you perform a soft reset. When you are back up then turn on your bluetooth. After your bluetooth is on then you can turn the phone back on again. Click on your signal icon at the top of the screen and choose settings. It will ask you if you want to turn the phone on. Choose yes and for me I have to do this twice before the phone comes back on. After that it will work everytime I reset until I turn off bluetooth. Hope this helps

Twice ? :wink:

Activesync conflics with McShield.exe and so runs painfully slowly.
This is the active virus scan part of McAfee Antivirus. If you are using McAfee, before you dock your BA, right click the McAfee icon in your system tray and disable virus scan.
Hope that helps.
I have a Cingular SX66. No ROM upgrades yet. I have experienced similar problems and have been able to conclusively trace mine to Goodlink. This app is a necessary evil on my (corporate) device. This hog takes 6+ MB to run, more than 3 times any other program I have. If people think MS VoiceCommand is crappy programming (although I love it), then you ought to load Goodlink on and watch it muck up the works. As soon as I kill Goodlink.exe with MemMaid (great app by the way) bluetooth has no problems.
Hi,
Like you sure have heared before, the Touch Pro 2 disconnects the Wi-Fi when in standby mode. Normally this isn't a big problem, but because i often use MSN messenger on my phone, it automatically enables GPRS/UMTS when the phone goes in to standby. Because of this i will have data costs when i have a Wi-Fi available too. I have tried some tweaks i found here already. I have used tools like HD tweak. These wouldn't work for me. I have also tried changing the registry keys manually. I changed to following keys.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Suspend\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1 (was 4 before)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Resuming\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1 (was 4 before)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Unattended\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1 (was 0 before)
This also has no effect and for some reason everytime i soft-reset my device, the unattended key has changed back to 0 again.
Does anyone have any idea how to solve this problem? I dont mind that GPRS/UMTS starts automatically when no other connection is active. But I have Wi-Fi only enabled when i actually use it so i dont mind the battery life too much in that case.
Hope anyone has a solution. Thnx in advance..
me too.
Tried advanced-configuration-tool , HD Tweak, Diamond Tweak, none of these work.
Any solution?

in fact, you don't have to do the soft-reset
it takes effect immediately(at least for me)
It looks like since I changed this setting, the battery drains very quickly. This morning 8AM it was fully charged, now 2PM its on 40%, and I haven't hardly touched it...
I will restore the key value to 0 again to see if it solves the battery drain...
Yes this works also for Topaz. However you need to keep something in mind:
This setting may reset itself on soft-reset (some people on Topaz forum reported this)
This will drain battery like a "mofo". I would not suggest using it unless you really need it, like when using VoIP completely and no normal 'call' at all.
Please note that "MSN Messenger" use will also use lot of power, as it may keep the phone in unattended mode, which uses much more power than normal true "standby" (suspended) mode.
Final, for Topaz you would use TNETW... registry hack, for Rhodium you use the BCM.... one. You don't need to do both (Rhodium introduces new Wi-Fi chip compared to last 10 or so HTC phones)
Effect is immediate - however beware when connecting/disconnecting USB cable/activesync at the same time as switching back/from unattended mode, as the activesync connection bug worked around by the Topaz and Rhodium Wi-Fi drivers will temporarily disable Wi-Fi, may reset this setting, and data connections made at the exact moment this happens will use the cellular connection instead of Wi-Fi.
(I needed to disasm entire driver to figure this out for new WMWifiRouter Topaz/Rhodium compatibility patch )
working perfectly
Guys,
Off course if you apply this hack and leave WIFI on all the time the battery will be dead in no time. Whenever you know that you won't be using it, wifi should be turned off. I like this hack because in the case were I am online on MSN for example, I don't have to keep concerned about the device shutting off so that I don't loose connection. It can suspend and still have wifi connection.
However, when I stop using wifi, I turn wifi off completely from communication manager to save battery. What is the use of wifi being kept on with no need for it?
What I love about my Nokia E71 is that it automatically asks me to choose a way to connect when I access a web site or send/receive an email or try to log into MSN. I would just choose the access point and viola as easy as that. In wm, we have to turn on wifi and then do what we want to do.
I guess its a small price to pay for having such a device
Ok, this is my report. I only change the 1st key & it will stick even on soft-reset.
12AM full charge. Device in standby mode with wifi always on & live mail set to sync as item arrive. 6.45AM = Alarm triggered, battery at 80% , 25 email in inbox, 3 in junk folder. Device was set to play tone & vibrate on new email. Volume below medium. Good enough for me
Works perfect on my sprint tp2. just the first registry change needed (second isn't even there). I then mapped the left soft key in the today screen in manilla to \windows\wifisettings.exe so that it is easy to manually turn this on/off. It worked perfect for me for a couple days until I fell asleep surfing the web and the battery was dead when I awoke.
Note: I just changed it back and turned wifi settings to best performance instead. I will just have to deal with continually having to go to the service agreement page for the open network at my hospital. This is better than a dead battery.

Hi Chainfire,
Looks like this tweak setting is now reseting itself on soft-reset on the TP2 with the official WM6.5 ROM.
(Used to work for TP2/WM6.1).
Searched the Rhodium/Topaz forums for a solution - no luck.
Have you had any luck with your disassembler ?

So I only need to change this.NOTHING ELSE?
The other registries are not necessary to change from 4->1 ?
EDIT: Never mind, you should also change the other registries
But now, my phone doesnt sleep on its own, I have to force it by hitting the power button
This worked for me for a while and then it stopped. It was doing exactly what i wanted (ie...downloading my emails even during standby), then all of a sudden, it stopped and kept turning on the data connection. The registry values didn't change back to default, but it still kept undoing the edit. I thought of a [less effective] way around it still.
Since wifi disables during standby, disable standby. When my phone's not being used, the backlight turns off and the phone locks, but you can still see the contents of the screen and wifi stays on. I JUST started trying it, so I don't know what that does for the battery as yet. If anyone can gimme some advice, please do.
Same here with the stock 6.5 rom.
A solution would be really good...
Am i to think that it only remains constant on the 6.1 rom?
So, I'm running EvaSense..not sure if that matters.
The issue started right after I join my WPA2 802.1x Wifi network at work here. I can replicate this on a new install. Other Roms don't have this issue, but just wondering if there is some quick fix, place to check to get this working.
Two items in particular don't restart across reboots.
Bluetooth. Shuts itself off, have to manually turn it back on.
NoLed. Same thing, have to open the app, check the box to turn it on. It is set to auto start, works on other Roms.
Maybe I should put this in EvaSense thread, but the Rom is pretty old at this point, just waiting for Sense 4 kernel and camera, then will switch to that full time.
Otherwise, not sure where to check or how to set these to autostart across reboots, or where to look!?!? Just strange that these two items aren't turning on automatically when I reboot the phone...just a nuisance at this point.
Any help appreciated.
I hope there is no similar thread on this yet and I request to all to add bugs here
my device: GSM international yakju-rooted
bugs:
1. clear recent apps in landscape mode, then switch to portrait mode and the cleared recent apps are BACK!!....and vice versa!!
2. Did OTA update with Bluetooth on and cannot switch off Bluetooth now with devices paired. Bluetooth switches back on automatically as soon as I try to switch it off. Correct me if this is a change in 4.2.1 or if this is indeed a bug.
Other complaints
1. apps on lockscreen widgets starting up randomly
2. 3 sec lag to start daydream and camera app
3. butter gone
4. laggy
luckily no random reboots and broken Bluetooth as others have reported on my device yet. I am not happy Google.
1. doesn't happen with me
2. can't test that (no bluetooth accessories)
Others:
1. lockscreen needs improvement (like clock widget auto resizing itself to full screen when swiping through screens)
2. my camera app starts in less than 2 seconds
3. 4.2 is a little heavier than 4.1.2 but still buttery compared to other high end phones
4. not on my phone
Something which happens to me when creating events on calendar... If i manually type in the end time of the event and the minutes are 59 (e.g. setting the end time to 22:59) when i press okay the time goes back one hour (e.g. 22:59 becomes 21:59). Anyone else?
I have none of the issues any of you have specified.

I got the same Recent App bug, which I didn't notice before!
But overall it is running smoothly. Did you try factory reset or flashing stock image?

* I listen to podcasts via Bluetooth car audio during my drive to and from work. Ever since 4.2, I get frequent Bluetooth disconnects while I am listening to audio. This never happened before 4.2. Unfortunately, 4.2.1 did not fix it.
* When third party apps such as Locale or Tasker turn WiFi on, it will not connect to any access points in range. However if I turn WiFi on via the WiFi settings, it connects immediately.
* Car mode is broken in 4.2 and 4.2.1. A "car home" app used to be able to invoke a mode where the home button would return you to the car app instead of the desktop. Now, the home button drops you to the desktop and crashes the launcher (Android's desktop process).
* Overall, much more lag and delays. Looks like 4.2.x is optimized for the Nexus 4 and its 2GB of RAM. 4.1.2 seemed perfect -- too bad we only had it for less than a month.
Well, my screen shuts off at random.. I can still press stuff, but it's totally black!! I have to put the battery and restart
bugs
I cannot use my BT headset, it disconnects when screen is off.
Camera is very very laggy.
Wipe phone and flash complete stock image!
I have none of these bugs! Bluetooth works like a charm.
Stock browser omnibox issue. When I open bookmarks and links from 3rd party appss, it's all good.
But when I try to type a search or url, the adress bar freezes and stays frozen on the screen. Rotate the screen and it becomes a black empty wasted space.
Is it a bug in in 4.2/4.2.1 or is it my phone?

i find it takes a couple of swipes of the security pattern at times, screen doesnt always respond as quick if ive not used my phone for a few hours.
didnt happen on 4.1.2 , not a massive issue but i do notice it

Firstly, It sounds bit too much to do a complete wipe and re-flash or a factory reset for just a dot.dot update.
Also, I have been reading that for some wipe and re-flash did not fix the Bluetooth issue. Also, a just a factory reset after OTA hasn't worked for all.
Can we please have confirmation here that a the factory reset thingy works so that all of us having issues can give it a shot?
In case we should wipe and re-flash, can it be done in the following way?
1. full backup system (in my case using titanium backup)
2. factory reset
3. copy the relevant image , yakju 4.2 in my case, into memory and flash zip using cwm recovery (6.0.1.5 in my case). then flash 4.2.1 similarly.
4. restore root.
5. system data/apps restore
please let us know.
International Yakju here and I've get the most annoying out of the problems. Random soft restarts. I've done a soft reset and it didn't help. I'm getting really pissed at this. Thinking of rolling back to 4.1.x
I havent tested bluetooth but I have random errors, sometimes when phone is locked It vibrates, I unlock it and it is asking with wich program I want to open, I choose gmail and it attaches a bug report, a .txt file with 4mb and a screenshot tottaly black.

I agree with the 3rd and 4th points. Camera app is quite different from ISC 4.0 and Jelly Bean 4.1, both icons are rotating while the phone is rotated. However, Jelly Bean 4.2's icon, instead of rotating, they shift the position while the phone is put as horizontally. I hope these will be fixed in the near update.

I got the same bug on both my galaxy nexus and nexus 7. For those who said that they don't have this bug, did you leave at least one app on and rotate the screen while having the recent apps menu open? Try again.

Can I turn off updates
OTA update to 4.2, totally stuffed my setup, flashed 4.2.1, no difference, have now flashed stock 4.1.2. to make the phone work as it should do.
Problem 1: The signal strength meter vanished on my car screen, no indication that bluetooth had connected.
Problem 2: The speaker, as I am sure we are all aware, is rubbish. I am using the pucker car mount and have a small speaker system set up and hooked into this so that I can hear warnings from CamerAlert. The phone connects over bluetooth but the CamerAlert warnings are directed out of the device speaker and go via the car mount to the speaker system - works a treat. With 4.2 this totally disappears and I get half a warning from the device speaker itself.
Having gone to 4.2 and back I can vouch for the fact that it is the update that is wrong.It will take me another day to get the 'phone back as I want it and I will then do a full backup. Thanks a bunch Google for, really professional update.
All I want now is for the 'phone to stop nagging me to update, anyone know how to turn off updates ??
my phone freeze after taking a picture today, so weird it didn't happen before and i need to pull out the battery in order to restart the device because the power button not give a respond.. so sad.. in 4.1.x everything is good.. for the first time on my gnex i need to pull out the battery twice today.. huh!!
Wow. I was very pissed of with the overall lagginess of 4.2/4.2.1 update, but I thought I might wait and hopefully Google will fix that. But then I noticed just how ofter the stock launcher crashes (leaks from RAM anyways). 5-10 times in an hour after using heavy apps like Chrome, Pocket, Facebook etc I press home button and I get and empty wallpaper. WTF? How is this even possible for a stock app?. And then there are things I've mentioned in other similar 4.2-reated threads like camera animation that lags and music widget that stops responding and keeps playing after headphones are unplugged...Gosh, that's the worst update (for me at least) ever. And now I noticed that recent apps bug. It does exist. Awesome.
I've had the LG G3 through Sprint since last September. All was fine and great with it with Android 4.4.2. Ever since the 5.0.1 upgrade I've had some pretty consistent issues.
1. Laggy on the home screen - hitting home means maybe 2-3 full seconds of blank screen before the icons populate and the screen returns to the designated home screen as opposed to where it was when I entered an app.
2. It destroys app processing VERY quickly - too aggressively. What is the point of 'multitasking' if I leave a game/app to respond to a text or gchat and use the menu/multitasking menu to get back to that game/app and it restarts it like I hadn't been JUST USING IT.
3. ALL BROWSERS on the phone sometimes ***** to me that they can't connect to a Proxy Server. Really? I'm not set up for proxying ANYWHERE. There's also no config to specify that or to specifically turn it on or off.
4. My LTE/3G sucks now. It will consistently downgrade to 3G or just drop all connections. Turning off/on mobile data or doing restarts only sometimes fixes it. I take the Metra to work (above ground train) and before the upgrade I didn't have these issues. I'm also having this issue RIGHT NOW and I'm on the wifi at work. It won't connect.
5. Smart Cleaning doesn't work. It grinds for a minute and then pops me over to the main screen or to the multitasking screen. WTF?
It also takes a while to restart. And I've done all the System Updates (PRL, profile, firmware etc).
What I have NOT done is a factory reset - I just don't want to go through the hassle of that if I don't have to. Though I'm certainly open to the suggestion if it'll solve problems for me. I'm just not understanding if that would work if there's some underlying software/antenna/connection issues.
PLEASE - suggestions are very welcome! I'm very frustrated with this phone. I wish I'd rooted at 4.4.2 and gone with a custom ROM.
TL;DR version
Having laggy issues - what does a Factory Reset gain me in this circumstance? Will it actually fix these kinds of issues? (see above message)
I was having the same exact issues. I finally bit the dust and did a factory reset and it's running 200% smoother now.
