Weird Vibrations

I have a weird problem with my phone. Every so often, my phone wjll vibrate twice, in two really short bursts that arent powerful at all. It is completely random. And whenever im playing music, it will stop the music for 5 seconds. If anyone knows what this is it would be greatly appreciated because this is happening on my new phone, as well as my last two galaxy s 2's (ive gotten 3 replacements)

I think this happens to me too, may just be my head, but I really do believe.

Do you get a notification?

What apps do you have that give off frequent notification? Do you have facebook, friendcaster, word w/f, etc.? Can you give us a small run down?
you can also download betterbatterystats (free here on XDA) and look at what frequently runs perhaps it appears as a wakelock.
or you can always look at logcat

It's a kernel crash. It's a part of android. It usually happens to let you know that it crashed but android reloads where it last left off. Hence the reason for the gap in music. If you press home immediately after you will catch it trying to finish reloading.

Is there anyway to fix it? Cause i happens like once every 10minutes

Try running master's kernel cleanser and reinstalling the kernel, that's a place to start

You will have to root first... Unless someone with more experience chimes in with a different idea

Is the same app running every time it happens? It may be a 3rd party app that isn't completely compatible running on your phone. Try deleting any third party widgeta.. then going into your task manager and clearing your memory. Then add one widget at at time til it starts doing it. If it doesn't do it, then open one of your e eryday apps at a time till you have the vibrating again. You may find some crappy lil app that you installed is causing all the problems.

FC TouchWiz with folders?

Hey all,
I get FCs when I exit from an app that has left a folder open. I want to stay on Touchwiz cuz I like the widgets but this is becoming frustrating.
Anyone else experiencing this? I have latest fw but it did this with original stock too...
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

it happens to me also, but not every time. if i quit an application by tapping multiple time and quickly on the back key the TW will crash

Yeah it would be better if the folder closed before opening an app. I wonder how often Sammy update TW with fixes. I might move to another launcher cuz I can't have a blemish on this baby

Got the same issue mate.

Me to now and then

Same issue here, already tried to reduce Animation Duration Scale to 0.5. Will try to disable and see if it solves that crash.
I'd like to auto close folders either... This bug is getting really annoying.

[Q] How do you fix Force Close when removing a home screen?

Hi All,
I am in the UK and have a new 16GB White unbranded unlocked Note 2 running stock JB 4.1.1, the device has never been modified or rooted. When I go into aerial view and attempt to drag a home screen into the trash I get a Force Close in Touchwiz which restarts and the home screen remains in place. I have tried format of cache in recovery but it made no difference. I don't want to do a factory reset and lose my stuff, but will do if thats the only fix. Do I have any other options? Has anybody got this problem and did you resolve it?
Thanks for any replies
Phil

Surely someone has at least experienced the dame problem ?

That happened to me when i diasbled animations in settings, development options, always enable them from 0,5 or higher.

Anyone found a solution to this problem. I had disabled animations from the "Developer Options" previously. I have enabled them now but I am still getting the crash.

Try reboot in recovery and wipe cache and reboot.

touchwiz crashing

Hi guys hope this isnt a fault with jellybean. When I want to delete an empty home screen touchwiz crashes. Before anyone says I have go launcher which I shouldnt have to use. Does this happen to anyone else?

This is going on for me too.. I try to delete a home screen and touch wiz force closes.. Nothing I've done fixes the problem.

Has not happened to me. I just tried it out. I am running stock Jelly Bean and am not rooted and do not have any mods at this time.

I have fixed it. I had my transitions set to none in developer options settings. I set it to 0.5 and rebooted and bingo it all works properly again and I can delete homescreens. Bye bye go launcher.

My MIUI experience. Pros/Cons

Well, I brought myself to removing my CM10.2 and trying the MIUI ROM. It was a very slick, very smooth ROM. I overall enjoyed it. But with it being a ROM of course it had a few minor bugs. And I did have a few dislikes. So I'm gonna list a few things I personally noticed about it. Fell free to post your thoughts and any resolutions to anything I'm gonna lay out.
PROS:
-a smooth, soft feeling touch that was full of color and a very nice setup. The was miui was set up in settings for example was on of a kind. I was not disappointed. The theme app that was there gave me full control of changing the status bar, lock screen, home screen, etc. You have full control of customization. WiFi also seemed to work just fine.
CONS:
- Sadly, my LTE didn't appear to work. I tried adjusting my setting to fix it. No avail and that kinda was frustrating. But with WiFi working it didn't pose to much of a issue. I also experienced to apps for my gallery, and I was unable to delete it because it was a system app. Some of the themes I downloaded froze my phone, causing me to remove my battery and restart my phone. I wasn't bothered by it to much, I'm rather used to having to do that with previous phone.
Over all if you like a fresh and fast ROM you will love MIUI. But with these few issues I went back to cm. As I need my LTE cause my phone is also a work phone and I need the fastest internet I can get. So feel free to post your thoughts on MIUI and any fixes. Because I would like to switch back and continue using MIUI.

LTE works you just have to select it in settings when you first flash the rom because it doesn't default on. Reason there are 2 galleries is because MIUI has its own gallery and since we have to use 4.2 camera it comes with its only gallery also hide one in a folder if you dont like one. And theme issue I've never experienced this

Thanks for the advice. Looking forward to flashing back and getting it sorted out

Okay. And how about this screenshot. On the far left page of the left side of my screen. Looks janky. Like a bug?

I love the visual development compared to all other ROM.

Looks great.. but I'm still in love with AOSP.

Right out of the box, I think MIUI looks a lot like ios . Maybe too much.
It is a great ROM though, and very user-friendly.

Could I see a screen shot of the phone? Keypad, in call. These are things people over look, but this is our phone is it not? For most if not everyone on here, the only phone they use.
