Black wake up lock screen

Hi since I have tried installing CFW I always end up with this problem. at random times when I wake up my kindle my screen does not show anything. I can clearly see that I opened it since the back light is visible when I press the boutton. I have to hold the power boutton and open it back, it's really annoying. I tried wiping cache, dalvik cache, factory reset several times also new roms I have all the same problem. any idea on this?
thanks!

What ROM and kernel are you using?

I'm using gederom kfire cm9 7-5. for the kernel i really don't know I just installed roms with ics on my kindle so maybe on 3.0? otherwise how can i check wich kernel i use?

It's using Hashcode's 3.0 kernel. It is a known bug. See here.

thanks that's good to know. is there any rom using a lower version of the kernel that is more stable?

The 3.0 kernel is very stable. You just have to do a hard shutdown or plug it in when not in use for long periods of time. If for some reason that's a deal breaker, you can use a lower version ICS kernel with one of the older ICS roms and sacrifice the ability to watch videos and play some games, or you can just use a Gingerbread based rom.

wow thanks a lot very helpful. I hope someone can patch this, but for now it's ok i can live with it.

[Q] tablet reboots after going to sleep

Hi.
I installed a custom ROM (CM10) yesterday but ever since then, when the screen is turned off, it will restart after about 1 minute. If I try to turn the screen on again before 1 min, it'll restart. In other words, when it goes to sleep, restart will be required. Please help me on solving this issue. I searched a lot and I thought maybe it has to do with the maximum CPU frequency, I tried changing it but didn't help.
Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

What did you wipe during the install? And what ROM did you install?
Probably to start the best thing to do is redownload the rom, do a full wipe (cache, davlik cache, data, and system), then reflash the rom.

Thank you for the response.
Yes I did wipe the tablet (a full wipe as you mentioned) before flashing the ROM.
First I had tried Jellytime Sosei and when I realized the problem, I tried "Build 4 Linaro Stock" from this post but still the problem exists :/ Before installing the first ROM, I had done a full wipe, but not for the second one.
Thanks again for helping me.

Try a full wipe to build 1 from the sosei thread, build 1 or 2 from the linaro thread, or the original cm10 thread. Those were the most stable for me. It's a weird issue, so it's probably a bad download or flash issue.

Its screaming bad install or bad settings, wipe twice then flash again, make sure to change nothing for speed, governor, io scheduler, and stock included kernel.
Don't even install an app for OC. It may be a huge bug showing for the first time, if we go carefully we'll find it, or get it going properly again. Occasionally the blackhole wipe used can clear up flash issues, but wipes internal sd as well.

Thank you guys. I'll try what you said when I get home.

I'm gonna give those three that you said a try, when I get home. But, can you give me the link of the original CM10 thread that you're saying? I thought there isn't one for A100, since I didn't find it on their website. Is there a official CM10 ROM for A100?

There is no Official CM10 for the A100, Romman was referring to this link for the original CM10: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1792634

OK, after wiping everything twice and also wiping internal SD, I flashed "Build 2" from CM10 Unofficial Builds thread. Apparently this one doesn't have that bug and everything is fine, but the problem is that it's buggy and clock doesn't show well and when you press recent apps button, the overlay doesn't cover the bottom of the screen. So, I'm gonna try and flash Build 1 or maybe newer Builds and see what I get.
But is there a work around for the clock and other bugs problem in Build 2?

There isn't one, no, but it was corrected in B4. I think. I'm building this stuff without the device so I can only go by reports. You're reporting issues that no one else has, is your device functional otherwise? Like is it ok on a stock Rom? Using the correct gapps, any other changes or mods?

It was totally OK on the stock ROM and this never had happened, not even once.
I'm using the gapps that I got from your CM10 ROMs thread, which is apps for v 4.1.2. I haven't changed ANYTHING else in the tablet, no mods or customization at all... :/
P.S. I tried Build 4 again, this time I fully wiped everything before flashing, but again, the bug still exists. gonna try some other guys' ROM to see if the problem is with this ROM or it's from my device.

[Q] Flashed update, now I have a blank screen

Hey all -
I have a T-Mobile Galaxy SIII with TWRP, AOKP JB Milestone 5 and GooManager. I got a pop-up for AOKP JB Milestone 6 this morning, so I downloaded it and added that file, Lean Kernel 2.9 and gapps (latest that could be downloaded) to the flash list. I set my Dalvik cache to clear before flashing anything, then rebooted the phone to flash everything. Immediately after the flash, the phone seemed to reboot, but with a blank screen. After a while, the capacitive buttons on the front started working and when I plugged the phone into my computer the file transfer program popped up.
However ... at no point can I ever get anything to display on the screen. I've tried rebooting into recovery (volume up, home button, power button) and nothing. I don't really care about the data on my phone, I have proper backups of everything. But what I can't seem to do is get it to a point where I can recover it. What are my options here if rebooting into recovery doesn't work?
Thanks!

As an addendum, the phone is clearly booted into the OS. I have a blinking notification LED that indicates a new e-mail, and calls placed to the phone cause it to ring. I just can't see .... anything on it.

I was able to get into TWRP, somehow. I took out my T-Mobile SIM card and had it plugged into USB. I held down the recovery combo and then it booted up into recovery. It also displayed the Galaxy SIII white splash screen for the first time since the bad flash. What the hell.

so was you able to use your phone again i say go back to a nandroid you have or flash a rom that you know works good on your phone without that white screen and trouble shoot from there that it very strange indeed if you get success with the other just try posting in the ROM thread that you flashed you could possibly get more help where it happened :good:

I went back to AOKP Milestone 5 after doing a full wipe. I saw a number of graphics changes in the Milestone 6 code review, so it's possible that had something to do with it. In any case, I'm no longer panicing

Does mr6 use the 3.4 kernel? If yes, then you were using the wrong version of leankernel.

Ya its all kernel related and user error.

I assumed it was user error. I just wanted to lay out the steps I took, so I could get some help on a recovery path. I thought that a JB based ROM would work with any kernel that supports JB. Looks like I was wrong.

Nope, JB can be AOSP, TouchWiz, 4.1, 4.2, 4.2.2, 3.0 kernel, 3.4 kernel. Just need to read and make sure you know what you're doing before just doing it. That's why I frown at people being lazy (not just you) and not reading the forums and such, and just using apps to update and flash.

Thank's for the condescension, I appreciate being called lazy. I might not have an encyclopedic knowledge of Everything Android, but between the knowledge I do have and the details I read on the AOKP release page, I saw nothing that indicated I _couldn't_ run LeanKernel, especially when it was only a point release on the same ROM I was previously using.

I had a look at the changelog that's available on their page. It's pretty lame. http://gerrit.sudoservers.com/#/q/status:merged,n,z that one will probably have the kernel info. A good rule of thumb is when you flash a new rom, wait until the kernel is up to date (release date). For instance, don't flash a 3/01 kernel on a 4/24 rom - wait for kernel update.
I don't recommend flashing anything with the 3.4 kernel right now. Even if you manage to pull off stability, it's still laggy and eating about 3x the battery it should. This goes for the custom kernels, too. I'll put up with stability issues, but can't deal with bad battery. Already bad enough as it is. Need my phone during the day and not near a charger.

Q&A:
Q: I tried to flash the ROM and got this:
Code:
Installing update...
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error in /sdcard/..path od ROM.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
A: Update your recovery to one that is compatible with new recovery functions. See the list below.
4EXT Recovery Touch v1.0.0.6 RC 3 or newer
CWM 6.0.4.8 Advanced Edition / PhilZ Touch 6.29.8 or newer
TWRP 2.7.1.0 ACE or newer
Q: I've used HTC Dev unlock and flashed the rom but it won't boot. What should I do?
A: You need to extract boot.img from the zip and flash it via fastboot. If you don't have fastboot executable anymore from flashing recovery, install Android SDK platform tools (Linux users should find it from distro's package management) and then reboot to bootloader, open command prompt and navigate to the location you extracted your boot.img and type:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
You need to repeat this everytime you flash new version of this rom to ensure everything will work fluently as long as you have just basic HTC Dev unlock.

Q: Feature X doesn't work, let's make 1000 posts about it to annoy everyone.

Q: I hate you for not fixing this issue X!!!

CM11 latest release freezes after first reboot

Tried to flash boot.img via ADB & also tried to install CM 10.1 SR3, nothing helped, same situation. Waiting for your replies. Thx in advance.

Question about bugfixes
Hi,
at the moment i have M10 installed but i want to ask if there is a fix in M11 included which fixes sudden restarts.
My DHD restarts over night or when i want to something (it doesnt depends on what i am doing).
And another Problem sometimes the screen wont turn on when pressing the power button only the menu keys lighten up.
And i think it is more like off topic but how i can unlock the phone that i do not need to flash boot.img it is at the moment only HTC-Unlocked.
And very much thanks for this ROM it is great!
Thanks in advance for your answers

Cannot dirty flash Nightlies
Hi
Since sometime around M11 release, I can not dirty flash nightlies on nightlies. The phone stuck at booting with the message "Android is upgrading / Finishing boot".
I'm using TWRP 2.7.1.0 for recovery.
1. Install Rom
2. Wipe Cache/Dalvik (I've tried without wipe too)
3. Reboot System
Am I missing something here?
I'm using non-English locale. Could it be the reason?
Best Regards,

Solved

Just figured it out that PA_GAPPS requires flash every update for recent ROMs.

Hi and thx for your rom!
I flashed the cm-11-20141008-UNOFFICIAL-M11-ace from releases, using twrp 2.7.1.0 for the recovery on a HTC Desire HD.
I am experiencing some lag when opening the screen or starting apps / widgets. It can take be almost instant up to 3-5 sec for the app to launch and be accessible (camera, gallery, weather, settings, mail anything really).
Also once in a while parts of the text in the screen get deformed (example here), any action by me (moving my finger around) or by the OS (some notification) fixes it.
As far as I can tell I followed your instructions properly. Is there anything I could try?

I haven't heard any complaints about frequent reboots. I know that there are those but it's been said to happen like once a week or so. M11 may change something if your issues come from corrupted devlog partition but if it's something else, then M11 won't do anything for your reboot issue.

It's a bit slow but I suppose that's understandable considering we are talking about 4 year old device. People have reported it gets slower the more apps you install. I'm not sure why.
I'm seeing that kind corruption on the screen graphics for the first time. Any chance of figuring out how to reproduce it and write step-by-step what to do so I could maybe replicate the issue on my end?

Yea that is very much true, this might sound bad but would is there some other version you would recommend (even if it's a previous android release) which would be snappier? (your ROM so far is absolutely fine outside of that lag which as you stated is probably because DHDs hardware can't handle it).
As for that graphics glitch can't think of something, any apps were installed from play store (not restored by titanium for example) it happens on different ones but a lot more often on k-9 email client (from which the screenshot is).
If there is something that you would like me to try, feel free to tell me, though any action on the screen restores it to its normal way.

I don't mind people looking for better solution for their needs. You may want to try my CM10.1 builds which were noticeably faster if I recall correctly. I haven't been using other ROMs that much during the time I've kept my own stuff going here so I can't really recommend anything else. A fellow user may be a bit less biased to recommend other options.
I'll see if I can catch that graphical glitch with K-9 myself. Thanks for reporting it!

I get that black boxes glitch with the standard Email app all the time. They usually go away in less than a second. I also checked for those when I was testing the 4.4 adreno drivers and it was still not fixed.

Well, generally it's recommended to wipe if you switch from one to another but it may work in this case without wiping. Make a nandroid backup and try it.

You can get original Desire HD battery on ebay cheaply, no point looking at other batteries which cost almost the same. Just look for one in your region.
Install Wakelock Detector from the Play store and find out what is causing your battery drain. Depending on phone use it should be able to last all day, 2 days if just left on standby all the time. Screen on all the time will be around 3-4 hours.

I'm having issues with it as well. Sometimes it sits there thinking it works, other times it waits a few seconds and then crashes. It worked for a day...not sure what I did past that to break it.

Is there anyway to overclock the latest update? I know I can't install a new kernel with this ROM.
Also, any option for Volume Rocker unlock? I'm new to this ROM, coming from CM. I kinda rely on that option, since my power button is kinda on the fritz.

Fml 4.4.4 beta
I love this rom but my after clean flashing it the gallery and the camera will not show
Pictures. Is there anything I can do to fix it so I can get camera and gallery to work?

Which gapps package are you using? I'm using the modular mini. Try another clean flash (sorry) and use a different package than you are now.

aaa
nothing

I've tried a lot of KitKat ROMs, but each one with a lot of issues. So I came back to the 4.3, it surprised me for his stability (1 year with bugged ROM make you feel that your phone sucks more than it actually does [no, it doesn't, I love it!]) and I decided to don't try your FML. Now I can't wait for Lollipop, and even if I haven't tried your ROM, I trust in it and I think it will be the best choice. Good work and thanks!

Could some1 possibly upload a video of this good work ? Got a maguro and I'm very curious
thx in advance!

Samsung Galaxy Nexus FML Lollipop
Hello. I hope this is the right place to post this. I have less than 10 posts so I have to post here...
I've tried to install your FML rom (the lollipop beta) on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus, but I seem to be having the same issue that coleburns is having. Namely, I flashed the rom from recovery, but when I reboot the phone, it shows the Google splash screen and then keep rebooting over and over again.
I understand that the first boot is supposed to take some time, but I've left it for over an hour and it still won't boot into the OS. Is there a step I'm missing?
I'm using the custom version of TWRP that you linked to in the first post. I also formatted all the partitions to ext4. Before flashing the rom, I performed the factory reset from recovery and also cleared the /system folder.
I've managed to load on the KitKat version of your ROM just fine...I can't work out what I'm doing wrong!
Anyway, if you need some logs or something to help debug the issue, let me know. Or, if I'm doing something wrong, could you please let me know? I'm very keen to try Lollipop!
Thanks.

lollipop build 2
Haven't seen anybody ask... In your changelog for lollipop you said the rom takes a VERY LENGTHY FLASH TIME. Are we looking at 5 minutes or more?
edit: VERY LONG... over 5 minutes for me

This is the best rom ever!
When you said, "These builds are very early! They aren't daily-driver-stable, but they are progressing extremely fast." I was expecting junk, then I tried it. I was a big fan of your kit kat rom as well but once I tried this android l rom I fell in love. I have used this all day and it is extremly stable. The only bug I have to report that isnt even a need is the app drawer is the app drawer animation is very laggy. I tried enableing 2d gpu acceleration just in case that had something to do with it but it still didnt help. Any suggestions would be great. Oh and yes I have tried closing other apps, multitasking is no issue with this rom, the memory management is great. I thank you so much for such a great rom, keep up the amazing work.

Installing TWRP Problem
So I am currently on CWM and am trying to switch over to TWRP. I'm have a slight problem. When I install TWRP (via twrp manager app), I am also using the recommended custom twrp from the first post. It installs successfully, then I go into reboot options and reboot into recovery...and it's still CWM. I've tried it multiple times. I am rooted, I do have busybox installed, I can't figure out what the problem is. IM STUCK WITH CWM, HALP!

Download the file in the OP for FML (twrp 2.7.1). Flash with Flashify. Reboot to recovery.

Don't worry too much about it not working. It's fully working for me but it's pretty slow when you actually need to use it. If you get it going it will pick up the pace, but it's far from usable, being in an app for longer than a minute and touching the home screen button will freeze it up for 10 seconds before it takes you to an empty screen that takes another few seconds to load all the apps and widgets back in. I'd wait for a newer release.

Feedback
Hello i have tried the older version and it was great but i really need my camera so i went back to 4.4 but i appreciate you so much thanks !
Please fix the camera asap and i will definitely install this rom ! and i tried to install the new version but it said Error Binary something in TWRP recovery what can i do thanks!

Q
Is the camera fixed yet?

Notification Light
Is there a way to disable the notification light while the phone is plugged in via USB? It's a little annoying to be on while I'm sleeping. It's not a huge issue though.

I don't think so.

I found that the miscellaneous section of the battery stats was taking up most of the battery usage. I don't have any apps installed other than the stock standard.
