Browser won't "submit" things anymore...?! - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm using the latest Fresh and stock kernel.
Lately my browser won't let me submit things - such as search bars, etc - like if I want to look for something on wikipedia I can type in my search term, but the link for the "search" or "go" button doesn't do anything.
Any idea what could be the culprit here?

I have had some of the same issues. They did not go away until I restarted the phone....

Glad to know I'm not alone. I restarted once and it didn't fix. Restarted again and it did. Odd, but glad it's working again.

I've noticed the same...but it seems to only be an issue when I'm running LauncherPro. If I'm using Sense or ADW, I NEVER have this issue. It happened before my root AND after.

Hmm I am using Launcher Pro, mainly because I don't notice any tearing using the FPS kernal. Maybe I will switch back to Sense to test this out.

CM 6.1.2 mod... NOT SENDING TEXT ANYMORE!

I cannot send text messages anymore with cm 6.1.2, it keeps saying it's "sending." I flashed this rom three days ago and it was perfect until tonight!
What is going on help!
Orly?

Should be in the Q&A section. Not in development. Do a clean wipe and load a sense based rom. Refresh your profiles and reboot. Then try sending your text message using HTC's messaging app. If everything works, then do a clean wipe and go back to 6.1.2. and try texting again.
I sure would like a robster craw.

Your not alone. I put this rom on my girlfriends EVO 2 or 3 nights ago and she just started complaining of the same thing about an hour ago. My first step was to reboot to recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, but the problem continued. Did a full wipe/flash again and still, same problem. Very odd! Also worth mentioning, market and many other apps are now FC continuously. I will be putting a HTC rom back on until CM7 is finalizes I suppose. Sad too, I finally convinced her to go with AOSP : /
I like cheese.

Thank goodness!
I thought I was the only one.
I love the rom though... It's really smooth and quick.
usually happens in AOSP ROMs when you are sending a larg (161+ characters). For some reason it is unable to break up the SMS. It's the only reason keeping me from flashing CM again.
ComputerJunkie, Which Rom are you using then? I love VaelPak, but CM 6.1.2 is so smooth and so fast! I guess I'll flash my Vael Pak mod that I backed up with CLockswork Mod. I tried to clear data from the applications settings, but still doesn't work.
I just got myself a new 004 evo the other day and so far I've been using Myn's Warm. It's very smooth and stable. The only problem I'm having with it is some SMS are getting put in a weird order (timestamp issues). Minor annoyance but I can deal with that since the rest of the ROM is very smooth and stable. I used to use launcher pro for my launcher but this sense version is so smooth and looks so good i can't go to launcher pro
ive heard people fixing the problem with handcentsms since it will break the msgs up into sections

My texts are coming in just fine so it might be a network problem for you. I just had a problem with timestamps which, after a full wipe and fresh flash, seems to have fixed the issue (so far).

That's true, I just hate using 3rd party apps since the one included is already good enough. I'm not looking for a ton of options. The more options, the more things can go wrong. I just want a good, solid, stable SMS/MMS client which the stock app does well.
Daytonaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Damn...
Guys I have a question and yes, it's probably a noob one.
I took your advices and download Handcent, but how do I stop the notifications for the stock messaging app? When I get texts now, I get both notifications. THANKS!

Go to the settings in the messaging app and turn off the notification. Also, uncheck auto-retrieve.
Yea when you almost get to page two, just stop typing, send the text and resume.

[Q] Launcher Pro and Syndicate 1.1.0

I am relatively new at this, so I apologize if I'm missing any necessary information...
When I rooted my phone the first time, the most updated version of Syndicate Frozen was 1.0.2 (Malanga)/Twilight Zone 1.0.4. I never had an issue with it, and for the most part it ran with no problems. I ran the fully loaded which didn't include Launcher Pro with it, but I had previously purchased it when I was running stock.
A couple of days later, I noticed that an update was available for Syndicate Frozen 1.1.0 (Takiya). So I went ahead and ODINed my phone from EB13 to EB05 and flashed to the updated version (fully loaded). When I went to activate my launcher pro back on my phone, whenever I tried to add a LP Widget, it would tell me it would need to force close. I was never able to add the widgets that I use all the time. I ended up flashing back to EB13 and version 1.0.2 and since haven't had a problem.
I'd really like to update to the most recent version, but also would like my launcher pro to work... Is this a known issue or am I doing something completely wrong and just don't know it...

The only LPP widget that doesn't work at the moment is the bookmark widget. You can work around this by putting the stock EC05 browser in /system/app, but keep in mind you'll get the checkerboarding and window limit back.
If it's not the bookmark widget giving you trouble, something else that isn't ROM-related is the issue. Out of curiosity, why did you get Fully Loaded if you don't use TouchWiz?

Come to think of it, I think the first widget I tried putting back on using LP was the bookmrk widget...
And I actually didn't have fully loaded at first, but didn't realize the standard came with launcher pro, and when I restored my backup, my phone went into super freak mode because my LP conflicted with the preloaded LP. It was force close mania. So I went to fully loaded that didn't have LP loaded on it.
I think I'll try updating it first thing in the morning, and I'll live without the bookmark widget if need be. And I think I'll try out TW as well... I'll post how everything works!

GS3 Suddenly Very Slow

Out of nowhere my GS3 is very sluggish. Swiping between home screens is jumpy. Some games literally run at half-speed. Launching apps can take quite some time. Etc...
I haven't installed any new apps since the last time I noticed it was running smoothly. I'm not really sure how to troubleshoot this. I've tried battery pulls, hard resets and clearing the cache from CMW. But nothing seems to work.
I was thinking that maybe an app had been updated in the background that is now a problem. But I can't think of a way to tell which apps have been recently updated.
Any guidance would be much appreciated.
Many thanks!

Factory reset, restore no apps. Check got lag. Add one app, check for lag. Continue until lag is found
And when you add an app back, dl it fresh from the market (no restoring anything).

One of the first things I thought of was that maybe Nova received an update that I wasn't aware of and it had broken something. So I tried TouchWiz and GoLauncher... all with the same result. Overall, the phone felt slightly sluggish. But some things apps and games became unusable. The new Rayman game literally ran at half speed. Other games would run at full speed but you could tell that control response was just a hair off. So you would end up walking off a lot of cliffs to straight into an enemy before you could get a jump off. It also effected load times on most things. Some apps that would load in 4-5 seconds were suddenly taking 30-40.
I can repeat this problem 100% of the time. I even tried toggling off the CPU option but Power Save still gave me the same issues (which doesn't make sense).
I have a completely stock never rooted GS3 and have had this sluggishness since the update. It happens when the screen auto dims, even though I have auto-dimming turned off. It also happens when I wake the screen up. I can't get the notification bar down or anything for about 5 long seconds; then it's fine until the shadow of my finger covers the front light sensor and the screen dims. It's almost like a hiccup. I'm going to factory reset this weekend. Was hoping to get Jelly Bean before I did so I didn't have to download all my apps again, and set all my settings. This is my first Samsung Android and it's an amazing phone when it's first started but after it runs for a few hours it gets buggy; so I'm pretty disappointed.
A note to anyone trying to solve this mystery: before the update I couldn't get my calendar to accept custom notification sounds, now I can. Since not everyone had that issue I'm guessing the software had issues since the day the phone was built. In manufacturing sometimes **** happens.
When in doubt pull it out . Oh I miss the BlackBerry Battery pull days to fix lag

Try Launcher Pro Plus - fastest, smoothest, most customizable launcher there is. Period. Forget Nova and Apex... Go try LPP!! Never lags or gets choppy, power save mode or not.

Fede is actually working on a new update. No release date yet. LPP still works better than any launcher out there. I've tried virtually every launcher available, and always go right back to LPP. Who cares that it hasn't been updated in a year or more, it hasn't needed to be updated. It's flawless.

Nice. Same here. Haven't switched to another launcher since the captivate. Glad Fede is ok. I remember a couple months back, one of the android sites sent out a call for him. when you would type fede carnales in google, choices such as "fede carnales dead?" came up.

did not uses the google account (no music, contacts, gmail, pictures, my life)
running 10 hours, no lag. will repor in 10 hours again, then sync with google account
hope ill find the solution, cous it looks like we the only 4 people on the planet that has this bug
i have this annoying lag too. Reboot solves it for a while but it will start lagging again. Changing to ak kernel doesnt work.
My N7 installed the upgrade acouple of days ago, lagged like hell until I cleared all cache then it was ok. But its back again. Trying to clear the cache again but the app is taking forever to load
I am afraid I've noticed that too two or three times. Only reboot resolves issue. It looks like a memory leak. I have never experienced that on stock 4.1.2 or 4.2.1.
Anyone found anything that could fix this?
Hello everybody, a few days back after installing stock odexed 4.2.2 I noticed some sort of stuttering when changing the desktops, I thought it was maybe a widget, the deepsleep battery saver app or a kernel problem buuuuut I did something, changed the wallpaper, the problem goes away, buttery smooth, unfortunately the problem comes back after a few hours.

[Q] Recent Apps lag

Is anyone else annoyed at the 2-3 second delay in showing recent apps that I experience from time to time. As a matter of fact it never opens very fast, at least 1-2 seconds. If so is there a fix our should I hope that when lollipop comes to the note 4 it will fix it.
There is a noticeable delay with mine as well.
Moved to Q&A.
This has happened to me but in every aspect of the phone. Rooted, no xposed, and only non-essential bloatware/update services uninstalled.
It is only for 1/2 a second or so, but the phone glitches like it is thinking hard then will complete the action. I even unrooted and reflashed my stock rom backup and still have it.
Probably going to return it today or tomorrow as my 14 day grace period ends. Pretty sad. I've tried just about everything to get it to stop and thought my stock rom would solve the problem, alas, no.
Still stock and not rooted (yet) and have the same annoying lag. Everything else is quick though.
It's the only issue i have with the phone, everything else has been great. I'm sure this will be addressed in a future update unless it's that way for a reason.

Same here. Hope they do something about it.
I've noticed mine is doing the same.. Is there a Task Manager app available that will allow you to see apps running in real time similar to that which comes with Windoze operating systems? In my opinion, this would help me see what is actually lagging when it does lag.
I found this from another thread here at XDA.. Am going to give it a shot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56320983&postcount=2
The link above is actually the fix for Xposed framework causing lag. Might help. Another help is turning off the animation which adds 1.5 seconds. Goto Settings/About phone/tap the build# several times until it declares you have developer options. Open developer options from the settings menu and find the animations and set to 0. Now the delay is down to one second even with Xposed framework. Solved.
One more thing, the build.prop may also need to be modified if running rooted stock. It took some googling and fixing but I finally got ADB working with the Starkissed kernel, ADB insecure and build.prop mods.
I don't have exposed installed and I have the lag as well. Watched and applied the fixes on this video and my Note 4 is way quicker! Totally amped!

Strange, have you always had the same lag or has it gotten worse? After those few changes mine is very responsive. I'm also not using TouchWiz, I'm using Nova Launcher. Wonder if that makes a difference.

this phone out of the box does not lag . Rooting has nothing to do with it. IT'S what you have done either before or after rooting. Check yourselves gentleman it's something you have done..

The lag is better but not as smooth as my Note 3 on cm11.
I am the first to admit personal fault, and I'd like to admit fault as to something I've done, but I have Odin flashed the stock rom and recovery back on the phone, and the issue is still apparent. Maybe the phone is not properly wiping data on a factory reset(also wiped everything in TWRP before using Odin to wipe the phone) causing a file to stick around regardless of Odin, but it is troubling and annoying to say the least.
Since I'm out of the 14 day period, here is hoping we get a developer to build a unified AOSP ROM in the near future.
