hey anyone with the most recent DC rom have problems with the camera? sometimes it will fail to start, like it will turn on than power off the app. To fix it either power cycle the phone or use a task manager and end all.
I did then I wiped and reflashed and it was gone.
damn, not really wanting to wipe. but so you just wiped the rom form phone, anythin with dalvik cache or anything? than just flashed the rom again?

Hello,
I have been running froyo based roms for a while now and have just decided to move to a gingerbread rom. I have tried two different roms, and if I turn my phone off I can not get it to power back on unless I pull the battery. I have tried reinstalling roms, and not installing any apps just to make sure it isn't an app causing the problem.
Has anyone else had issues like this or know what the problem may be?
Thank you.

Are you wiping dalvik-cache, boot, system, datadata, data, and cache, thru recovery before flashing?
Thanks for your reply. Yes, I have wiped the dalvik-cache, boot, system, datadata, data, and cache. Have you heard of anyone else having these issues with gingerbread roms? I am starting to think this is my issue, but I don't know.

I have never heard of anyone else with this issue. Do you have fastboot enabled in menu - settings - applications? If fastboot is enabled your phone dosent really power off it just goes in to a sort of hibernation, making starting up the phone faster. Mabey its not able to wake from this hibernation for some reason, requiring you to pull the battery and truly power off the phone in order to power it on again.
I have some issues with my Defy, it worked great for about 5 weeks with Quarx's CM7 the i started to get random lags, all apps crashing and freezes. I wiped the cache and dalvik cache, still not working.
After that i installed MIUI, worked pretty good for 2 days then got the same problem. Wiping the cache didn't worked here either so i decided to re-install CM7 (7.1.0-jordan) but still got the same problem.
I tried lowering the CPU settings to the default but it had no effect.
What else can i do?
I'm kinda new to this so please, have mercy.
Thanks in advance!
Could it be the RAM (not enough available)? Use an app like this or similar and see if there's any difference.
Also, if you like CM7, go for CM7.2 - it already has a RC version, and it's stable and fast (bug fixes included, tweaks, interface optimizations, etc). Regarding the CPU: it's not necessary to underclock to the stock 800mhz value, just be careful about the voltages (don't go too low suddenly, or you'll get freezes or random soft restarts - try to undervolt progressively).
Plus, it's a good habit to wipe Cache and Dalvik cache before and after flashing a ROM/nightly.
it's not the ram, i used netqin from the beginning which has a widget that shows available memory and a task manager and the lowest memory i ever had was 100MB. currently on cm7.1 i have 213mb available.
is there a way to completely revert all changes, like a factory reset?
Actually, task managers on Android don't fix any problems, they even cause problems - I would get rid of that if I were you.
Like a factory reset? Wiping data from custom recovery (but you'll lose all data, settings, apps, etc on the phone), but you keep your current ROM.
Give CM7.2 a shot, it might be better.
Edit: Did you have these problems before installing that task manager?
i really don't care about the current ROM, i would go for the stock android just to have a working defy. do i need to flash a sbf before installing 7.2?
could it be a hardware problem?
Don't flash a SBF!
If you are already on CM7 just flash a CM7.2 version like a nightly (wipe Cache and Dalvik cache, before and after flashing). When I used CM7.2, I was happy with a version by maniac103, from 27 February. Stable, fast, good battery life.
If you really don't care about all of your settings and apps and data and so on, you could try to wipe Data in custom recovery before installing CM7.2, it might solve that issue (but I'm not sure, and it's not really worth it to try it now, only as a last solution). But if you do that, remember to flash gapps too, after the ROM.
But first try CM7.2 and use your phone for a while without that task manager.
No, I don't think that it's a hardware problem, especially if it worked fine after you flashed MIUI.
just installed cm7.2, will update if problem still occurs.
Thanks!
You're welcome.
Great, I hope you'll get rid of those issues. Did you also remove that task manager?
Yes, kept just the basic stuff for now. i have a problem with the proximity sensor, after a call the screen stays off and i have to remove the battery. I tried loosing the back screw and several ways of disabling the sensor but none worked.
Any ideas?
Hello everybody,
I'm running the latest stock Android 4.3 on a rooted Note 2 with CWM installed. What happens is that when I use the phone to make or receive phone calls (streaming music is ok instead) in my car (but I experienced the same problem in another car) the Bluetooth all of a sudden goes off and I need to either turn the screen on or toggle the bluetooth button.
Any idea on how to fix it?
Thank you,
Davide
Hi! Have you tried a Factory Reset? It will wipe your phone clean, so back-up your stuff first. Come back after with the results, maybe this will fix the Bluetooth issue.

Actually I wanted to avoid that...
Okay, so let's try something else first and see where it leads: Go to CWM and make a Nand Backup. Then wipe your Cache and Dalvik Cache. Reboot and test. Most probably this will not solve, but it's worth trying. Get back in CWM and this time wipe Data + Dalvik + Cache (Factory Reset basically). Boot and test. If not working, you can restore the Nand Backup to get back your apps and data. If it is working, well, lucky you, you'll have a great time installing all your apps back
Alright so im having a lot of problems. Usually when I turn off my phone and it boots up it'll usually freeze on that rainbow circle screen so I turn it off and back it then it loads fine no big deal but yesterday I turned it off and tried turning back on and now it freezes every single time. All day yesterday I kept booting into recovery and kept restoring roms, Ive factory reset it, wiped data, wiped dalvik cache and now when iI turn it on I have no apps. The screen is jus black but the pulldown bar is still there and I can't download apps or apks. I get error 24 every single time. Anyone know how to fix this? I'm using moar ROM BTW if that helps. Also one more thing, when my phone starts up now it always says android.process stopped and systemUI stoppes
I have pics but apparently can't post them..
I would try downloading a stock rom... do a fresh install. .. meaning factory data reset, wipe cache, dalvik cache, and just because of the problems I'd format my internal memory too. Are you running 4.3 version of moar or the 4.1.2? If the problems continue there may be something else corrupted

Anyone encountered camera flash stopped working suddenky in camera mode, flashlight app or other 3rd party app? I used to clear dalvik and cache n it was ok for awhile but now it totally stopped working. Will reflashing it and reformatting it bring back the flash? T705 user here btw.

Well let's find out if it is a software issue or hardware issue. Backup your current ROM, then wipe data, flash a new rom and see if it works. If it doesn't it's hardware issue.

i already reformat everything and reflash.... it was fine till one point it started again. what i did next, i tried to fix permission in TWRP and it works!!! i wonder which permission causes the flash to stop working.... i had to fix permissionb everytime it stopped working....
anyone knows any way of which i can actually see what or which thing that causes the break??
My Tab S (T700) wont flash too! Only rarely. I tried in complete darkness and no flash! Im prolly gonna end up registering for this site just to comment!
