i had the same problem and it just went away with my last flash and restore. running blazer rom's last update (before 1/5/12).
think it had something to do with ADW launcher *or some part of blazer* theming if i had to guess which two apps may have caused, tho i couldn't pinpoint.
fear of a the bug recurring scare me, i like stock browser best. yet i actually tried opera/dophin/uc browser...
are you running adw or blazer? just curious.

short of a factory reset i am not knowledgable enough to come up with anything else... a temp solution would be to use a diff browser on the market.

just a theory here that this is a bug in stock browser;
i initially had the problem in blazer 3.4 but fixed in a reflash.
you had problem in stock but fixed with a new flash to blazer.
anyway it's cool we fixed it one way or another... wonder what if there is a broader general issue?

I wonder why you and I were the only people who had this problem, however, there could be more. Maybe a ref lashing of the rom does the trick. Thanks Bro!

Problem has resurfaced. Running blazer 3.7. I have been using since launch (1/22?) So a few days with no snags... 3am bedtime and I'm browsing in bed, problem randomly comes back. So effing annoying: I feel like I'm being violated ugghhh I hate this glitch! Cleared cache and data... will try yo reflash in the AM and report back.

I had these problems after flashing gunslinger on calks rom all icons on home screen where gone , but after reboot they came back and one website kept blacking out every few seconds, it fixed itself.

a reflash of blazer (and the modified kernel) still haven't fixed the issue. i'm using dolphin browser as a temp workaround, really don't feel like going thru a factory reset for this bull****. any other suggestions? this seriously drives me insane!!!

I have similar problem but no need pull batery, just a reboot and it will fast again.

Try running a cache cleaner. I have noticed some programs doing that and I run cachecleanerng and it seems to fix it.

Can't reboot, its pretty much completely unresponsive.
As for the cache cleaner, doesn't do anything even after full wipe and fresh app install.

Simply put Google will ignore any bug reports of chrome on "unofficial" android releases such as ICS on desire Z, and cuz its not for gb, they wouldn't support the G2/DZ are all, so support inquiries are basically ignored.

I have tested Chrome on my Mimicry 1.4.0, based on ICS 4.0.4.

Wasn't working right for me either. Since it really isn't working for anyone which browser do people prefer instead?

I tried it, and even pluged it in before a reboot but nothing shows up on screen. I see a little flickering, but nothing else.
Also, are you placing "com.qc.hdmi_out" under "Property Name" or "property Key"?
you may want to add "true" o your directions, they are not specific.
Thank you for your efforts none the less! This is a great step in the right direction. :good:

tried this and it worked. only issue that remains for me is when the MHL cable loses power or is unplugged, the only way to re-initiate the hdmi-out sync is with a reboot of the device. anyone know of a way to manually trigger a resync?

Can anyone post a flashable fix for this, I am at my uncles house and was planning on watching a movie with my cousins and then I realized my jb ROM doesn't have mhl support :/

For me, setting "ro.hdmi.enable=true" does the job. I tried your com.qc.hdmi_out line also, but found that I had difficulty getting consistent results, but devices may differ. ROMs earlier than 10.0.0 Stable often crashed after using HDMI, after pulling out the cable, even though the video worked well up till that point. But recent ROMs seems to be stable for me.
It is a frustration for me that those who (probably) know about the deeper aspects of this issue (why it was never turned on in the default configuration) never comment on it, so those who want it to work spend lots of time fiddling with it. On the teamhacksung site, a statement was made that it will never work because it involves proprietary code, but that was some time ago, so who knows? The fact that it works well seems to suggest that all the needed code is present and functional, so the mystery is why it is never addressed by the developers explicitly, or turned on by default, or have a setting to turn it on as Galaxy S had.

WiFi Problems?

Hey guys. So my phone is having problems with WiFi not turning on, it will turn on sometimes but just stays at the Gray slider saying WiFi is turning on. I'm not a noob with android . But is this a hardware problem? I was on stock ICS rooted and tried cm10.1. I didn't try Odin yet tho. Thanks.

Doesn't sound like a hardware issue. First thing I would try is wiping data, cache and system in recovery and re flashing your rom. If that doesn't work, I would definitely try Odin.

Yeah I tried all of that. I hope its not a hardware issue because it turns on sometimes. I'm going to try Odin soon

Going from ICS to JB can do funny things when doing it through recovery. Not all partitions are overwritten using recovery, so you still have some ICS stuff there. It's always best to use Odin when going back and forth between different bases, if possible.

Haven't touched CM10.1 nightly ROMs for a while. But the LED Notification stopped working, stayed on an older version of CM10.1 nightly.
Gonna try that when I get home. Also PA made it to this device. Also the Jedi mind trick Roms. So many options. Wow head's spinning.
Leaning towards CM10.1 though.

No signal, can't play video
I was using CM10.0. Updated CM10.1 with corresponding gapp.
-Can't register on cellular network anymore. Can't set AWS frequency in the factory testing mode.
-All of my Video apps start legging, play videos for a little while and quit after about a minute, say video format not supported. Even though the video is mp4 format and it was playing it before quitting.
How should fix it? Flash kernel? Which kernel should I use?

Had some problem with radio but I just had to update to the latest version and everything else looks fine

I tried to resist flashing this ROM but had to give in to temptation. Said to myself no more flashing when I got into boot issues with JMTJB6. Odin flashed stock and left it unrooted! Was happy...but then temptation. Happy I did it, rock solid, butter smooth, doesn't seem to have any lag.

Thanks that did the trick. I was going mad at why the LED notifications stopped working.
Also still on the non-touch recovery, 5.0.26 the one that needs the Darkmod scripts to wipe cache and do full installs.
Also had to turn sensor on/off before it actually worked. Read that from another post from someone that helped me.
Thanks again dude.
