[Q] 4G turns on after every reboot ???

So for some reason or another, after every reboot, 4G turns on by itself.
Needless to say, it drains battery for no good reason, and I don't know how to fix this.
Any suggestions or advice?
Running: Stock 2.2 Rooted (from netarchy), with 4.1.8-cfs kernel

Are you running switcherPro? If so, theres your problem.

You are correct my friend. Throwing "swithpro" into my search immediately returned useful info.
Thanks.

Lucky you!
I can't enable 4g for the life of me... And I'm using SwitcherPro. Should I uninstall this?

switchpro used to automatically turn on 4g with me too so I uninstalled it. reinstalled it later after I sent some feedback to the dev and after a few revisions and all is good again. it does still turn on during boot up, but immediately turns off.
do you have the latest rev?

I haven't seen anything during my searching which suggests that switherpro interferes with actually connecting to 4G, but I can't know for sure.
I say, uninstall and see what happens

Not sure what the latest rev is. I've had it for a couple of months.
Either way, the "turn notification on/off" trick worked for me.

good deal. that trick didn't work for me.

myn rls5 problem

I recently updated to rls 5 - i previously had 4 with no issues. however, now the phone tends to give me the screen that says something like htc incredibly brilliant with warm twopointwo (i think this is similar to when you first load up the phone with it) -- sorry if I'm not describing this correctly.
anyway this is happening semi-frequently and never occurred before and just annoying me now
recently updated PRI to 1.90 and kernel is king's #11. tried a few different kernel's and had the issue on all of them.

Sounds like the you are running something that is interfering with your home app and causing it to frequently close... you will see this screen right before it loads back up, correct??

Craig is right. When the home app fails, it has to relaunch, causing the warm twopointtwo load screen. It's happened to me once or twice. Before my little troubleshooting thing down there, keep in mind that #15 kernels DEFINITELY work with updated sense roms like myn rls5 and mikfroyo 4.3. #15 is Sprint's most updated kernel and you can find ones that have been modded and customized right there in the forums in the development section.
Anyways, if the #15 kernel installation doesn't work:
here's what I'd do.
Do you have a custom home app installed (such as launcher pro or adw launcher)? If so, uninstall and re-install them. If that doesn't help, go back to the stock home and see if the problem occurs there. If not, then you know it's a problem with launcher pro or adw. If it continues or you don't have a custom home app, proceed to step 2.
Step 2 is to backup your apps and data using my backup or titanium backup and do a factory reset (not reflashing the rom, just a factory reset to erase everything). Yes, it's a pain in the ass, but this is how the troubleshooting process is. If it continues after that, go to step 3.
Step 3, reflash the rom as it could've been caused by a corrupted file on a bad flash attempt. Since you already backed everything up in step 2, you won't have to do it again. If the reflash should not work, move onto step 4.
Step 4, the rom download itself is corrupted. Go download it again and reflash it.
If that doesn't work, then I don't know. RLS5 is made to work with PRI 1.90 and all the other updated stuff from Sprint, so if you're completely up to date then I couldn't tell you what the problem was.
Hope that helps.

thanks for the tips, i'll give them a try today. hopefully it clears up

i do notice a lil problem with rls5. Whenever i go to sleep at night (mind you i leave my wifi on, and have my sleep policy set to never turn off my wifi), my phone says its connected to my network, but there is no data being transferred. Exchange sync problems is in the notification bar, and even going through the web browser i know i have no connection.
This wasnt a problem with rls4.

Something similar happens to me, I go to sleep with WiFi on, and when I wake up, I see the 3G icon on top. If I look at the power control widgets, it shows WiFi being on, and when I click it, it says that I'm not diabling WiFi. This has happened to me twice now, I haven't tested to see if it was actually on or not though. Clicking the power control widget again enables WiFi and the correct icon shows up.

ill do it, but i didnt know that my wifi connection had anything to do with my profile..
jut did it and it replied "no profile updates available"

i found a quick solution, i just enabled the wifi sleep policy to like 15 miniutes. So if my phone is going to sleep or on standby, after 15 minutes, it will go to 3g. I know the problem is when its connecting to a network for a long time the wifi freezes. So i just stopped allowing it to do so.

ACS Syndicate 1.0.2 Wifi Issue?

I tried 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 and they both do the same thing. Whenever I am in Airplane mode wifi will not turn on. I press the button and it just freezes in the on position and then nothing happens. Never had this problem on any other rom. Any Suggestions?

This is default Samsung settings and cannot be changed at this time.

Does that only apply to EB13? DK28 and DI18 never had this problem. The only reason I ask is because I live in an area where I get no service and my battery drains 3x as fast if I dont have Airplane mode on.

I never tested it much in previous versions, but I can confirm it occurs across EB13. The setting is tweakable at a low level - and I question why Samsung didn't include it in Settings, and why even Spare Parts doesn't tweak it.

Thanks for the feedback k0nane, Im overseas right now so anything but airplane mode is an instant battery drain if I want to use Wifi. I figured this was Samsung's fault now I know. Here's to hoping EC05 fixes it, though I have my doubts.
Given that your aware of it, do you think it is something you guys (the awesome Devs) will be able to fix with time?

Yes. Thereotically, it's as simple as a settings.db change - I'm looking at it for 1.1.0.

Cool, Your my hero! Thanks again for your awesome work.

You might be able to toggle it under the testing mode (dial settings).
if I remember correctly it is something like:
#*INFO##4444# might be able to shut off all cellular connections, but still keep wifi and gps open.

That would be absolutely perfect. This is the only problem I am having with your Rom. If its fixed I will definately donate to the cause. Your Rom is by far the smoothest, fastest one out.

Hmm, seems without a data connection i cant get into that menu...or maybe I'm typing it in wrong. I know I've been in that menu before.

This did seem to work, the correct code is *#INFO*1111#
Under the Phone info menu I turned off the radio. Now I can be out of airplane mode but don't seem to be losing any battery to cell standby, only display and phone idle.
Thanks for the suggestion, this will get me by for the week. Im out of thanks for the day but I owe you one =)
Edit: Thanked you properly

[Q] Anyone else experiencing issues with manually updating weather?

Just got my Note II, yesterday. No real issues besides not experiencing the spectacular battery life everyone else in the world has been talking about, and another minor, yet very irritating annoyance: I am using the stock clock/weather widget that comes on the Note II. I guess it's a jelly bean widget. I have ALL of the location features enabled in 'settings,' and I also have set the weather to update every hour.
What I've noticed is that the weather rarely updates when I'm at home, but it will update when I travel around town from city to city. And when I try to manually force an update while at home by hitting the refresh icon, the icon will just continuously spin for a ridiculously long time, before timing out without updating. This happens over WiFi or if I'm using AT&T LTE.
Is anyone else having these issues, and if so, is there so setting I have/don't have enabled, that's making it so the weather will not manually update??

Mine acted funny the first day or two but is fine now. Did you try rebooting? Not sure why mine cleared up. I did go in and disabld a lot of the bloat ware through app manager. Haven't rooted yet.

Did you turn off GPS? It won't work if you enabled "Enable Current Location" in the widget configuration and the GPS is turned off.

Mines did the same thing until I flashed CleanROM Lite Edition v1. Im using HD widgets btw.

Just rebooted and it seemed to have done the trick... for now. Hope this is the problem solver. Thanks!

I love HD widgets but I really like the stock Jelly Bean clock/weather widget. Maybe I'll try HD widgets in the near future, but happy with stock. The one thing about HD widgets that is supremely superior, is the weather options and information.

The same thing is happening to me when I try to manually update (clocks forever). I'm about ready to trash the widget.

I'm not sure what's happened, but ever since I did a restart after the person I quoted suggested it, I haven't had anymore issues. It updates manually, now. Try a restart and update immediately afterwards to see what happens.

Nexus randomly reboots, stock 4.2.. what gives?

This is driving me insane. I'm running stock 4.2, and my phone keeps randomly rebooting in my pocket. I've never used a different ROM, only rooted. Only thing I could say is that I tried to use SuperUser to keep my root after the OTA upgrade, and it did not keep it successfully (is that actually possible yet, btw? I know the GNex Toolkit doesn't seem to support it).
No ideas here. I know I can reset, and I probably will at this point, but.. any causes?

I had the same problem and I find out that hd widget app is making my phone to reboot. After I uninstalled the app I don't have the rebooting problems. If you have the same app try to uninstall it and see if the revolting stops.

I do have that app, and the thought crossed my mind - I was wracking my brain to remember whether or not the rebooting began before or after that install a few days ago.. I will uninstall it and see what happens. Thank you!
Shoot, because I hate the stock lockscreen clock on 4.2
EDIT: Went to uninstall, and my phone soft-rebooted. Guess that answers that..

Pretty sure the reboots are location service related and a bug in 4.2. Hard for me to tell, because I am on AOSP which is a bit different in that regard.

That's what I hear. Which I don't get because I don't use the weather widget, only the clock (unless you're talking time zones or something). Or unless you mean I don't have GPS enabled and it's trying to use it?
I also heard it's from a bug with Google on the 3rd party lockscreen widgets in general.
