[Q] Help! NFC broken, cannot access settings

Sorry if this has been covered before, I'm normally good at self diagnosing my problems and fixing them with a simple search but I cannot find my answers to this problem.
I have rooted and rommed my device a few times over (bugless then AOKP currently) and some where along the line I have lost NFC abilities. Even the ability to access the "more" tab in the connections settings. If I click on it all it does is freeze and go black.
Is there any fix to this? Please help
Thank you in advance..

It looks like NFC capability is under 'non-working' list. Try to flash different rom and see what happens.

Really?? Where did you hear that because I'm on aokp and it works just fine.
Link me to where you saw that.
OP just they reflash your current rom and see what happens.

he said he already re-flashed it. if the rom is perfectly fine accordingly, why is he having the problem? do you have any suggestion to fix the issue?

He never said he reflashed it, he said he flashed several different roms on it and with his current one his nfc doesn't work.
I know that nfc isn't on the not working list as I have that EXACT rom and it works fine.
So a reflash is the best option, wipe cache, system and dalvik, reflash rom and gapps and kernel and see how it goes.
Ps this is a nexus device, roms are mostly built from aosp so chances of things not working in roms are highly unlikely unless there is a problem with that particular device.
All the drivers etc are released for nexus devices so everything works.

Darkside Evolution 3 ICS problem?

I'm using the stock launcher that came with the rom and everytime I open and close a folder, a voice comes out saying "the folder is open, the folder is closed" and I can't for the life of me find a setting to remove this. It's driving me nuts. Anyone know how?

I did not have that specific problem, but I did had some other annoying problems with that ROM, starting when TDJ used his VENOM kernel. It was, after all, an alpha release. I noticed today that TDJ updated his ROM using the Tmo kernel this time. Perhaps updating with the newest ROM will correct your problem.

Aokp is fine until you try to do some stuff with sdcards, then they start not being detected. At least last I tried which was latest and this morning.

I've been running AOKP as DD for about a month and have never experienced any sdcard problems. I store all my music on my external card too. Always streaming via bluetooth and when I go for a run. My pictures also go to the external card.
I would say that it was either a bad download or bad flash or bad sdcard if you're experiencing any issues.

[Problems back] daily reboots / warm reset - last_kmsg

Hi guys,
i'm running AOKP Build 3 , fresh install, Apps downloaded through the Play Store and restored data for some apps ( no system apps) via Titanium Backup.
But from time to time i notice hot reboots. I turn the screen off, but it will not get on again. After about 1-2 minutes the phone reboots ( i see the Boot animation).
Except all is running smooth. Also i tried the latest Franco Kernel, but same Problem.
Could someone look into the last_kmsg i pulled right after a hot reboot? Maybe a dev or someone with more knowledge than me can find the Problem.
Thx,
Ebi

What kernel are you using? And are you using supersu, or superuser? I had the same issue b4 random reboots, it seemed that the issue was root not sticking in and also the Franco kernel, think my phone didn't like it, I had to re-root and re-install cwm recovery, using the toolkit and that seemed to help, I had the issue with every ROM I flashed, hope It helps

I faced the constant reboot issue on stock JB... apparently, switching to CM10 or AOKP helped (I've stuck to AOKP since it contains the stock apps... sans the bugs present in all AOSP roms).
Are you sure it's a root problem? I'll go try it out now and check.

I used the Stock AOKP Kernel, and later the Franco. And both had the same issue.
Will try suprakarmas way

It all points at the root not sticking with the Franco kernel app as well for some reason once I started messing with that sucker I started having the reboots, if the problem persist I advice to use the toolkit to reinstall stock ROM, re-root and reinstall custom recovery, I had teamwins but I went back to cwm, it all has been good am on android revolution HD am staying away from aokp and cm10 till there's a stable release

what's going on? i thought we were dealing with aokp and/or aokp+franco.

No, this was after flashing Francos kernel. Don't know why it is not shown but maybe this was the problem, a bad flash?
What I did was rerooting the phone with the toolkit and re flash Francos kernel. No reboot till then, but what I noticed after switching the phone on this morning the cpu settings are gone. They are back at the defaults...
Is this a known issue?
Will report back after work.
Gesendet von meinem Galaxy Nexus mit Tapatalk 2

ahem i wouldnt know. dont run aokp or cm right now.
i would advise you first to learn how to start fresh google way. forget toolkits. read efrant's stickies, they're in his sig. good, know you all about fastboot and adb basics.
reflash latest cwm non-touch. reflash aokp in cwm, you dont need to root to flash a rom. use it like that for a couple of days. no issues risen? reflash franco in cwm. this is how you troubleshoot.
sent from my i9250

So, it seems that for some reason, flashing the Franco kernel thru his app causes the reboots, and, either thru Google or toolkit, going back to stock, re-rooting or no need to do so, reinstalling cwm recovery solves the issue, at least on my end, just my 2 cents \„„/

Ok work is over and no reboots since about 20hours
I think the rerooting or the re flashing of the recovery, which is one step in rerooting, solved the problem.
Thx everybody

please edit the title thread with the [SOLVED] tag.

Hey guys,
me again.
The problems are back
I don't know why, but i don't get a rom to run more than 1 1/2 days without having a reboot.
Today i also tried the Odin Flash. So know i am running a stock Rom, just rooted. The whole day it was fine, i used my phone the normal way. But now i am back at home, and what? I pressed the power button to turn the screen off and instantly a second time to get it back, but it didn't come back. Black screen.. and some seconds later i see the Boot Animation.
After it was back i tried to find the last_kmsg, but it is not there in the stock Rom.
Is ther another place to find something like a log?
Hope to get some help
Cheers
Could someone tell me the most efficient method to go back to full stock, and reroot again?
Maybe i did something wrong during this process !? Everything i tried to do seems not to work :/

You should have edited thread title again, removing [SOLVED] tag; I just happened to come back because I wasn't sure if I had checked this one already or not.
/proc/last_kmsg should be there. How did you try getting it, adb or from a file explorer on the device? I'm at work so no adb here, but I've just checked and /proc/last_kmsg is there for me. Not sure if factory image from Google doesn't have it, but it should, I'm running my own build from JZO54K (android_4.1.2_r1), and I believe this is the closest to the factory image as it gets.
As for your last question, I already told you: read this thread.

Ok i found the last_kmsg but it is really big and i only See a line with omap and while no Data requested... Again and again.
Will have a closer look at it later and Maybe Post it from my PC.
But before that i will follow your guide and hope to solve the issue.
Btw good morning
Gesendet von meinem Galaxy Nexus mit Tapatalk 2

I'm back, i followed the guide, did everything and just rooted my Phone. Except that everything is original.
More than 1 day i had no issues, but today... reboot. I didn't do anything, at first it happened in the morning at work, but i think it was not a "full" reboot, because in the about phone menu i saw a on time around 8 hours.
But later the phone was just lying at my table and suddenly i saw the boot animation. I have no idea what to do.
What i got is the last_kmsg, but it's really big again so i was just able to copy a little thing of it. I don't know how to find the exact time of the reboot so i hope it is inside this pastebin:
http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=xZatKns5
Any ideas? Is the reboot shown there?
What i will try is to get a new sim, mine is very old, maybe this could be a solution!? Except i have no idea .. could it be a hardware issue?
Cheers
Edit: Just an idea, could it have something to do with the baseband? I read a lot of errors or something like that related to omap things.. !?

Can I suggest you they flashing another kernel - one with SmartReflex off? Faux's kernel (v22) works... so long as you have the version WITHOUT SmartReflex.
Well... it works for me. SmartReflex and my phone hate each other (it happened one, random day... no rhyme kr reason to its occurance). And I don't undervolt.
sent from my mini tractor

What exactly is smart Reflex?
Iam still running the Stock Rom just rooted and the Problem changed a bit . I did not have real reboots, 1-2 Times a Day the screen keeps beeing Black if i Switch it on. But After some seconds it is back and runs as if nothing happened. So not real a Reboot But a relatively long break...
Will wait for my New sim now...
Dont know if i should try a custom Rom till then.
Gesendet von meinem Galaxy Nexus mit Tapatalk 2

Smart Reflex is some automatic voltage/undervolting the kernel performs in order to save some battery. It comes enabled with the stock kernel... and for me, that's the cause of my reboots (and kmsg wasn't very helpful except for the fact that some MPU clock was being reset... and there's an option [to disable it] with the Smart Reflex parameters).
Soooo.... I turned it off altogether.
Rarely do I see blackouts for a second while my phone screen is on and I'm doing something on it. Before, it would reboot without warning.
If you're in the stipulated warranty timeframe, try getting it replaced and see if your new unit fixes it... else, try a new kernel.
PS: trickster mod is a very useful app... hint hint.

I'm downloading it on my computer at home right now but I was in a rush to get to work. Looks like I'll have to wait until my lunch break to flash this, haha.

First post here as well. I was rooted on stock, and this flashed flawlessly. Not 1 problem. Thanks!

ran the update, installed cwm and the phone works flawlessly minus one issue. gaming has become laggy. anyone else with studder or lag issues?

Aww man. It figures, I just finished flashing another rom like, about 18 hours ago. Now with finals coming up, I don't have time to do this one! Oh well, I guess I have something to do AFTER finals then, hahaha.

Is your power saving mode on? I've always found it makes so many things laggy, unfortunately. Might be enabled by default on the rom. Worth a look.

Great community here. Yesterday I was non-rooted ICS. Today I'm rooted JB with Wallet.
My phone just got 1000% better.

First of all, I appreciate all the Devs hard work bringing these Roms to us! :good:
I was running rooted UCALH9. Updated to this JB via Odin and all SEEMED good. Problems I had:
1) Play Store FC's - FIX - I went into Application Manager and removed updates for the Play Store app, which reverted it back to the default Play Store app. This fixed my problem. MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT UNINSTALL!
2) Rom Manager - I would get root user authentication error when trying to Fix Permissions. Everything else in Rom Manager worked. No fix at this time.
3) Gallery - None of my pictures were showing up. This is even after clearing caches. I am convinced it's because I can't Fix Permissions, but what do I know... No fix at this time.
Any help would be appreciated!

Damn I had that same Play Store FC problem yesterday -- I wish I'd have figured that out. I ended up doing factory reset lol.
I receive same fix permission error as you, but I rebooted into recovery to do it.

You didn't happen to play with the camera at all, did you?
I can live with the Fix Permissions via CMW, so that would clear up 2 out of 3 of my problems. All I need is a fix for the Gallery problem, and I can go back to Official JB.
Thanks!

Howl long was the flash?
I'm inside Odin on flashing system.img.ext4 right now and it stays there which looks like about 20% for last 10 minutes with no forward movement.
How long do I need to wait before I consider something is wrong with flash process?
Changing cable to Samsung one did the trick if you are in the same situation.

If you are talking about flashing the root injected JB i post, yes you can flash it after upgrading and no it won't wipe anything in data, everything should be preserved for you.

Weather here sux.... Hovering slightly above 0 degrees with 80 mph winds for the last week so add on the wind chill factor and u can only imagine... And no snow yet.
So far no other issues with this rom. Seems to run perfectly. Now just waiting for someone to write a power menu options and enable stock tethering script =P

Constantly losing cell service

This problem suddenly came out of nowhere.
I've had the same rom (paranoid android 3.99 RC2) running on my phone for 6 months and everything works perfectly until one day as I'm driving home the GPS goes wonky.
I restart my phone and then boom, no cell service on my phone.
I tried to:
wipe cache, dalvik
shutdown and reboot multiple times,
install a fresh copy of the rom,
tried other roms,
made sure i wiped system and storage when flashing new rom,
and tried to insert, reinsert sim card multiple times.
Strangely enough when this problem happens, the home button laso seems to act like its unlocking the device...
What do you guys think?
I'm thinking maybe I got some water on my device and ended up having it seep into the home button and the back of the device.

Sounds like a modem issue, might just need updating to the latest for you device...

Agree with the updating modem?
Have you popped open the phone and checked the water indicators ? Check for water invasion, that would answer whether it's a factor or not.

I flashed to the stock rom and unrooted, which flashed the UCALJ2 Modem. It's working fine now on Paranoid 3.60.
I downgraded to that one since I never had any troubles with that rom, I kinda liked that version anyway,
but if I get any issues I will post here again.
