Row 7,8,9 no longer working

I don't know what I did but for whatever reason my screen is no longer responding on the 7,8,9 row on the phone. Mods if this is not in the right place can you move it please.
The last thing I did was change evrc to evrc.b and now the row doesn't work. I'm using fresh's rom if that makes a difference.

try recalibrating Menu-Settings-Lang&keyboard-Text input- Calibration (at the bottom)

unfortunately after re-calibrating AND resetting back to factory it still doesn't pick it up.

ok i just did a data wipe and a dalvic-cache wipe and re-installed fresh's rom to see if it would fix the problem, unfortunately it doesn't look like it worked at all. i'm still getting no input on the 7,8,9 row. anybody have any other idea i can bounce around to try to fix my touch screen problem?

Have you tried reflashing the stock ROM to see if it's simply a hardware issue?

first off, this should be in the q&a board, IMO.
second, i agree completely with the previous post. i would reflash to completely stock. if the issue persists and is consistent, as in those rows NEVER work no matter what (stock software or custom software), i would take it back to where you bought it, sprint/radio shack/best buy. it should be easy to demonstrate to them the issue and they shouldn't have any problem exchanging your current model as defective for a new one.
if the issue is fixed by flashing stock software ... then that's another ball game and we can work with that when we get there so keep us updated!

ok really noob question but when you say stock rom, do you mean stock rom that is rooted or completely stock like out of box, and if that's the case where do i get the stock rom from? also would this screw up my root access?
edit:
will this one work forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=685835?

ok so yeah i did a flash to the stock rom and it's still a no go. >_< looks like i'm taking it back to sam's club to get it replaced then.

[Q] freezing problem

Hi everyone!
first, happy new year!
I have a problem with my desire...it freezes in a way that the pulling the battery out is the only thing that helps...it doesn't respond to any button, the screen os off and I can't wake it up
it's rooted with unrevoked, clockwork recovery
tried different roms, the best for me is baadnwz dhd port...
been on that for a while and didn't have the freezing problem, then I flashed the miui..
went back to baadnwz and it started to freeze...a few times a day
then I reflashed it, uninstalled the font changer and that helped...for two days(thought that was the problem) but tonight(~36h from the clean install of the rom) it froze again...
so, I don't think it's the rom, obviously it is not the font changer...
why is this happening, has anyone encounter this before, is there a solution?
please advise, what should I do?
thank you

For what it's worth...
If you can get it back to stock ROM, then do so. Then take it back to the place you bought it and demand a brand new replacement. I would even go so far as to note/print a few pages of some the forums as evidence of the widespread problem.
If my (and many other people's experiences) on here are anything to go by, then your problem will only get worse...and let's face it, whoever has heard of a electronic non-software related problem getting better on it's own? Having read just about every available post on the subject I've concluded that no amount of flashing/reflashing/fiddling is going to fix it.
Sorry to be negative about it, but them is just the facts as I see them.

hmm...so it's like that huh?
what do you mean "if" I can go to the stock rom?
can't I flash the original rom, or ruu or something?(I don't know, never tried something like that)
but then again, I'm not sure that it isn't a software problem...I'm just lurking around to see if anyone has encountered this before and solved it....
if all else fails, I'll flash a clean rom without restorin my apps and see how it goes from there...

just my experience

In all honesty, you may be able to reflash back to stock ROM. It may well depend on what firmware you have on your phone and whether your phone is branded (mine is T-Mobile UK). I know when I originally got mine and rooted it, it was hboot 0.83. It went wrong (external speaker stopped working). I was able to flash it back to stock ROM and I sent it back to HTC. When I finally got it back after 8 weeks (long story involving HTC incompetence and bad luck/incompetence with UPS), it was on hboot 0.93.0001. I rooted it with Unrevoked and installed LeeDroid 2.2f ROM. Shortly afterwards, it started to freeze/reboot. However, everything I've read so far leads me to believe LeeDroid wasn't the cause of the freeze/reboot fault. The problem is far too widespread (just Google 'HTC Desire reboot freeze problem') for it to be caused by a particular custom ROM.
Anyway, the upshot for me is that no matter what I've tried, I haven't been able to get it back to stock ROM and therefore, can't send it back for repair/replacement.
I sincerely hope you have better luck than me.

well, I'll see how it goes..
thank you for your answers

is there a way that I can make a log or something to see whether an application is doing this or something else?

well, I think I solved my problem, and for further reference here's a post that I did in another thread where this was disccused..
trikpa said:
just to let you guys know, I don't have any more freezes
some say it's because of the sense rom, some it's the dhd rom, others told me it's the radio or the ril files....
tried all of that plus few more things and nothing...
well, it turned out to be my backup(or an app in it..)
I always backed my apps and data with my backup pro, very nice app that restores everything....but the last rom flash I did, I didn't restored my apps&data and started fresh installs...and no freezing
I don't know what exactly caused problems, but one more thing that may be responsible...I flashed "font changer" and changed system fonts on my phone...and then backed my apps...maybe that's he deal...dunno...
anyways, I'm back with a killer phone with the best rom out there - baadnewz's

Do you still have any issues with the phone freezing sometimes when charging from A/C?
Mine doesn't freeze as much as it used to since updating the RIL files but being left charging seems to upset it

OK, that sounds good. I only usually recover a few items using Titanium backup but next time that I flash a ROM update. I'll start it all from scratch and hope to get the same result as you.

I don't know, maybe it was a specific app but I don't have the time nor the will to test each one of them

I've got the same problem. Now that I read your post it makes sense.
Restored my apps trough titanium backup and 5 hours later my phones freezes.

Yes, I've solved my problem by buying a new SD card.
This time from Kinsgstond instead of Sandisk.
Hope it solves your problem too.

well, I did buy a new 8GB card, but it never occured to me that it could be the problem....I think it didn't freeze right after I switched cards...
for now I flashed a newer version of the rom I'm using and will see how it goes...if not, I'll switch cards again
thanks for your answer

I'm curious

Well so far I have reflash the phone after a factory reset + wipe with no app restored via backup. It is performing ok so far. Last freeze was 2 days ago. I will wear down the battery to get a chance to charge it up this afternoon. I will see if it freezes again.

Unfortunately, app has stopped. [Please help!][LogCat][Reward]

If someone can solve my app issue there will be a reward in the form of a donation! How's that for an incentive?
I understand I posted a similar thread before to this but I wasn't resolved and I am completely out of ideas.
Which ever rom I'm on, which ever kernel, after a random amount of time using my phone an app with crash,
which seems to set off a chain reaction and then all my apps begin crashing.
It's usually google apps that start it, such as messaging, play store or contacts. Apex launcher also often gets affected.
Killing all apps and restarting the phone occasionaly fixes the problem for a little while.
I have used different kernels, used different android builds, factory reset the phone, wiped the sd card, cleared cache etc etc. Is this a hardware issue?
Things that might be worth knowing
When entering bootloader I get the following error messages:
Code:
Sd Checking...
Failed to open usb master mode
[COLOR="Red"][Preload] failed to open usb master mode[/COLOR]
[COLOR="Blue"]loading PJ46IMG.zip image...[/COLOR]
Failed to open usb master mode
[COLOR="blue"]Please plug off USB[/COLOR]
I can not save images, in other words it seems I cannot write to the SD card, looking in mounts and storage in CWM
reads:
Code:
unmount /cache
mount /data
mount /sdcard
mount /system
format /cache
format /data
format /sdcard
format /system
format /system
mount USB storage
Which implies that everything is unmounted? Surely this can't be right and this is why I cant write to SD? Mounting them fixes the writing to SD problem temporarily.
When I get problems occuring next time I'll try to capture screenshots. I really hope someone has an idea what's going on here, if it's hardware I guess I'm screwed as the phone is out of warranty? :S
I have attached logcat's from around when the crashing happened last time, maybe someone can skim through them and identify the issue? Thanks

did you try different gapps???

I've tried lots of different gapps, the miui Rom im using now came with gapps as well

Both of your observations are normal, no problem there.
App force closing does not relate to kernel.
You should make a logcat when the apps start crashing so someone can assist you in diagnosing the issue. (Google it if you don't know how)
Also try re-download the ROM, possibly could be corrupted ROMs that you flashed.

Ok I'll make a logcat now, cheers bud. And I have tried with multiple different roms so it seems unlikely its a download issue

Heres the files. It took me ages to get any results, its typical when you want it to crash, it doesn't! Can someone more tech savvy then me have a thumb through them and try to identify the issue? Thank you very much
I think there is errors in both the logs but more in the second!

Now offering a reward for some help leading me to resolving this issue

Cheers man, really appreciate it!
If it helps, my hunch (baring in mind I'm not that savvy with this) is something to do with partitions unmounting themselves? when looking in CWM
sometimes they are mounted sometimes they aren't

That error in the bootloader is common for all phones, simply unplug the USB and replug it in.
The USB not mounting is caused by old CWM versions, here is the latest.
About the second problem, it seems you are using custom ROMS and the problem started by the SQL management (i would eliminate hardware as a cause)
But please inform me which Rom you are intending to use so I can confirm the procedure, and whether its Sense/Sense+/AOSP.
For now, try the following:
- Re-Install the Rom with SQL tweaks ON,EXT4 tweak, and FORCED GPU rendering OFF.(if options available)
- DON'T restore anything from the system partition

Are you using the latest CWM recovery v5.8.4.0?
The error you get in bootloader has nothing to do with apps crashing and is totally normal. Even I get the same error.
And like the guy above me told, the FC's are caused by SQlite trying to write to readonly databases.
Similar problems to this have been fixed by wiping phone. Have you restored app using e.g. titanium backup?
And also, try formatting sd-card using pc, not recovery.

I am using the most up to date version of CWM 5.8.4.0
What exactly is SQLite anyway?
Currently I'm using ADRH The ICS version, in the instilation I checked all the tweaks so I expect the EXT 4 tweak was on.
What do you mean about restoring from the system partition? I don't restore anything and still get the problems.

Don't ever wipe from the bootloader if on custom roms/recovery.
Don't check all the tweaks, especially the force gpu rendering, this one is known well for causing FCs.

Unfortunately, i am still having the same problems that you are, and still cant seem to get my phone to boot, but i am on the latest Hboot 1.31 but still getting all the same apps crashing as you are
I am hoping for a potential Jelly bean RUU to released maybe?

try running in safe mode and see if a 3rd party app is causing this. Hold the turn off option in the power menu.

First problem which I have had before on a sense rom, Pressing the send button on a message does nothing. This usually leads to apps beginning to crash
Followed by a random screen 'turn off' and phone reboot followed by being stuck in splash screen
..Yep, still getting crashed. Can I reformat the whole memory? What would be the best way to go about this?

You could reflash the RUU file to get your phone back to stock and work from there. --this rewrites all partitions
You need to downloading it (there's a thread in android development listing them all), relock your bootloader, and run it as administrator from windows.

App defaults not sticking on reboot

I have been having this annoying problem since day 1 and cannot get an answer to it. Even google has failed me. So, whenever I choose app defaults (like launcher or different sms app, etc) they stick as defaults until I reboot. When I reboot, it asks me again for each one. I have this same problem whether I am rooted or not, have had it with stock roms, etc. Why is this happening? It is very frustrating.

Wow... no one else is having this problem? Should I return it for exchange? It seems like a software glitch, but a factory reset doesn't fix it.

Still having this issue. Is no one else having it? Are there file permissions I can check? Is there a file not properly getting saved which holds defaults? I hate having to constantly remind my phone which apps to use for what.

What Rom are you on ? Are you doing a Clean Install ?

As I stated in the OP, on every ROM, rooted or not. I have done a wipe with every ROM I have used. Even occurs when I do a factory reset with a stock rom. Fix permissions does not help either.
I have a sneaking suspicion that there is no such thing as a full factory reset.

Did you try wiping /system prior to flashing the various ROMs? Typically when someone does a factory reset, it means they are clearing /data and the caches. It sounds to me like something is messed up in your /system partition, which might be persistent across ROMs.

Yes... full wipe before each rom... and full wipes after factory resets.

does anyone know which file is responsible for storing app defaults? I'd like to take a look and see if it is getting overwritten, or what the deal might be. This is an annoying problem. Having to keep selecting my video player, launcher, etc.

I have fully wiped (yes all of it) prior to a stock rom install... and factory reset plus fully wiped (yes all of it) after a stock rom install.
yes... wiped to the point of losing ALL- ALL--ALL data. I have taken this thing down clean.
I have one-clicked, standard odin'd, kies, dialer pad reset, recovery mode reset, settings reset....
Every time... I am able to get back to stock clean... but nothing is resolving to the point where app defaults will start behaving. They arent behaving.
I lose them after every reboot.

I don't understand why you need that. KnishKnosh understands what the issue is. Are you not understanding what I am describing?
Surely you have seen this phenomenon before. Whenever there are multiple apps to accomplish a task (i.e. browsing, launching, texting, etc), it will ask you which app you want to use. You then choose an app and tell it to always use it or to use it just once. What I am saying is that even when I choose "always," it only sticks until I reboot.... then it asks again. This is not normal behavior.

I have the same issue as well Edufur, So you're not alone.
Usually my problem is Home Launchers not sticking on reboot.
And coincidentally its all the home launcher apps i paid for pro excluding Holo Launcher and Nova.
Apex Pro, LauncherPro+, ADWLauncher Ex are the ones for me that always resets its default status for being home.
There's a lot of people that has this problem and there hasn't been a fix for it.
Its more like a Device Compatibility issue for certain applications to me then anything else.
Because my friends LG OG doesn't have these issues.

First thing is please edit that pic . So you Tap Always and after a Reboot it just asks again ? Has it always been that way ? You mentioned it was only on certain Launchers. Does it do the same thing on the TouchWiz Launcher ?

So it looks like he is experiencing the same thing as me. Yes, that is what happens. And even when I click "Always," it only sticks until the next reboot... and then it happens again. Yes, it has been like this ever since I bought the device (and even before rooting). Yes... it continues to be a problem even after factory resets / multiple wipes / all ROMS / full clears (including internal storage)... yes FULL wipes... before and after flashing new roms, stock roms, all of it. Sorry... but I am trying to be as clear as I can on this because it seems like people keep asking the same basic questions. No one seems to have a clue about this problem... it is nice to know though, that I am not alone with this problem.

So it looks like this problem even exists for other Galaxy products. I never realized this before but my GF has the Epic 4G Touch (galaxy s2) and it has the same issue. How is it that this isn't a big concern for people?

In this thread you can post your experience, questions, and all other stuff that is not directly related to the RE-FLEXxx rom.
I do this to keep the dev thread clean.
Thank you for your understanding.
I will take a look into this thread from time to time but the main goal is so that users of the RE-FLEXxx rom can help out each other and that they can find help from each other in one place.
Regards, civ.

I installed 2.0 on my N5110 (coming from 1.9) and it is working well but the top of my tablet is non-responsive to touch. Happened on other releases but a reboot always fixed it. This time the problem remained, so I tried wiping cache, dalvik, fixing permissions, reboots, and all sorts of combinations. I did finally manage to fix the issue yesterday after one of those reboots but now the problem just reappeared and won't go away. Any suggestions?
Edit: Finally got it resolved with a full wipe of data, cache, and dalvik through cwm recovery. Then I flashed Civz reflexx Rom 2.1 and rebooted. The top of the screen still did not respond to touch, so I rebooted and now everything works perfectly. :thumbup:

yes, hd happened to me, I re downloaded and reflashed it again and is OK now..

well, I finally installed twrp, and backed up my stock rom, so I am getting ready to flash the first custom rom on any tablet I have had!
one quick question; I am a very experienced rom flasher; I see in TWRP, there are several options under the wipe menu, and, I know to check the first 4 options before flashing this rom; then, there are 2 more options, wipe internal card, and wipe external card.
I know not to wipe my external card, since all my "stuff" is there...should I wipe the internal card before flashing, or is that not necessary when flashing this rom from a stock rom?
I apoligize if this belongs in the the TWRP thread, but I thought since others have probably gone through this, I wanted to post the question here as well. I guess I should post it in the TWRP thread as well...
thank you!

well, I finally installed twrp, and backed up my stock rom, so I am getting ready to flash the first custom rom on any tablet I have had!
one quick question; I am a very experienced rom flasher; I see in TWRP, there are several options under the wipe menu, and, I know to check the first 4 options before flashing this rom; then, there are 2 more options, wipe internal card, and wipe external card.
I know not to wipe my external card, since all my "stuff" is there...should I wipe the internal card before flashing, or is that not necessary when flashing this rom from a stock rom?

This is my opinion on it.....I usually only wipe the internal card if I am starting completely over with flashing a device. Wiping data/cache is usually all that is needed but if there are a lot of apps that get installed over time their folders get left and every so often I like to wipe it to get rid of all the "orphaned" folders. If you are going to just restore all those apps anyways then it won't make a difference either way. If you are going from the stock rom to a TW custom based on the stock it shouldn't be necessary to flash internal.

thanks man, that is what I thought, but, since I have never flashed a custom rom on to any tablet I have owned, I wasnt sure if there was other "stuff" on the internal card that might be needed no matter what; and, yes, since I will just be restoring all of my apps pretty much once I flash this custom rom, I might as well just leave the internal card alone...
I appriciate your fast reply!

Please take my advice with caution...I did not take your point into consideration because I have yet to do it on this particular tablet (only had the Note for 1 day). Never had a problem on any other tablets/devices but who knows. I wouldn't think there would be an issue. However, like you say probably no reason to wipe internal if you will just be restoring them back anyways.

tun.ko or tap.ko?
I'm trying to get openvpn to work on REFLEX2.0 in tap mode. Looks like I need a tap.ko kernel module for either the stock kernel or the CivZ-StormBorn_Rev2.0-OC kernel. Anyone know where I might find such a thing?
---------- Post added at 03:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:54 PM ----------
I notice the CivZ-StormBorn_Rev2.0-OC kernel has no /proc/config.gz file. That means the kernel was not compiled with the CONFIG_IKCONFIG option. Is there a way to see what options are baked in to the kernel?

USB Mass Storage Unexpectedly Removed Loop
Hi,
Not sure if I am posting this in the right spot but I am getting a mass storage device unexpectedly removed loop message whenever I attached my USB flash drive? I am using the V2.1 ROM and kernel so wondering if anyone else is facing this same issue? Thanks!

i have better luck if i tap at the bottom of the softkey. it's almost as if the icon is bigger than the actual location that the press registers.

Chrome screen bug solution
Basically the problem is the notification bar, combined with the lack of on-screen softkeys. In order to fix it, you need the following:
Xposed Framework:
http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/public/Android/XposedInstallerDownloadUnsigned.apk
How it works:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
App Settings manager:
http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/public/Android/Xposed/AppSettings_0.4.apk
I've been using this combination on my tablet for a while now. It lets me change the resolution for individual apps. For instance, I want the tablet mode of Gmail, but I want my tablet to run in phablet mode so that I get the top notification bar and no softkeys.
The Chrome fix is simple. The app settings for the Chrome executable should have the fullscreen option toggled, the DPI set to 160, and the screen resolution set to 800x1200. It then hides the notification bar on top while you're in the browser, and shifts the screen that quarter of an inch where it is offset due to the Chrome bug on tablets without softkeys. If you need to access the notification bar, simply swipe down on the screen from the top edge and it will pop up.
If the print size is too small, you can use the accessibility settings in Chrome to scale up the font size.

Hi,
Please ignore my last message as the issue was using the wrong kernel on my part. Thanks!

Question
I'm thinking of flashing a new ROM having used stock for month or so now. My concern is regarding the apps I have installed and am currently using, specifically FolderMount.
If I flash a new ROM (either civs older 4.1 build or his newer 4.2 one depending on how he is progressing), will I lose the links?
I have about 25GB worth of game obb and data transferred over from my internal memory to my micro SD. I dont fancy using up all my download allowance having to re- download and install all of those (plus the time it takes to transfer them all over). I dont mind losing the layout of my homescreens as I'm thinking of shaking that up anyway.
I've only one past experience of flashing a Rom and that ended up with me having to reinstall and set up all my apps (jump from ICS to JB on my Asus TF101)
