Clock disappearing - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

Hello all... a quick question with most likely a simple answer, but I haven't been able to figure it out. I'm running stock rooted with lk8 modem and I lose my clock in the notification/ status bar at the top of the screen. Just flat goes away. I assume it has something to do with how it hides during the lock screen and it's just not "waking up." I can reboot and it comes back most of the time, but then goes away after a period of time. Usually good for an hour or two, but sometimes shorter. Any ideas??

[Q] EI22 Constant Beeping?

I'm on EI22, stock ROM with mkasic's keyfix kernel.
This morning I woke up and headed to the room where my phone is...to hear constant repeating beeping. It was like 6 very fast beeps, nothing for a second, then 6 more beeps. Over and over again. I had my volume on the lowest notch, so luckily it didn't wake up the whole house! I believe it has most likely been beeping for hours.
I found a thread with a similar report on the i9000 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1052796 and another thread on the captivate. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this since the GB update, or even before that. We've got 2 epics in the house and I've never run across it before so I'm thinking it was introduced to our phone in EI22.
As soon as I powered on the screen and pulled down the notification bar it stopped.
I have been able to replicate it by leaving unread e-mails in my notification bar, powering off and back on. Basically as soon as it boots and the media scanner starts running the beeping starts. It will continue forever until I unlock the screen and pull down notifications.
Figured it out - had no notification sound set, so apparently it defaults to constant repetitive beeping...lol
Once I set a notification sound all was well.

Unlock opening dialer

Getting quite annoyed with this now. About half the time when I unlock my HOX by pulling the ring up, it launches into the dialer instead of the launcher. I thought I might have been accidentally dragging the quick launch icon, but just tested it about 20 times to make sure, and I can drag the ring anywhere on screen, after the quick launch bar has faded and it still happens.
This happening for anyone else?

Unlocking the phone brings you to the last open activity. If you lock your phone after using the dialer, you'll unlock it on the dialer. (Un)locking is not like pressing Home.

I know that. It does this no matter my last open app
this thing happen to me when i charging my phone.. my guess its has something to do with HOX screen sensitivity when on charging status..
yeah it seems related to the touch sensitivity issue when charging, mine does this occasionally.
Happens to me too. I think it has to do with bad coding and unfinished software. My previous phone was Dedire and never had any problems with it. But I'm very dissapointed with the hox. It seems as if it was built with only one thing in mind, get it oit before samsung. Bad move in terms of quality

just a follow up, not near a mains charger at the moment, and can't seem to reproduce when charging from PC.
Is everyone having it launch the dialer, and if so, do you all have the dialer as your first quicklaunch app?
Will be fiddling with this issue later on, because it's just weird
I noticed this when I first got this phone, I just moved the Dialer icon elsewhere on the Dock and it never happened again, strange but a non issue.

Pls read the above thread, just posted my theory there for this issue, its probably about time we start a proper thread for this issue.
I'm sure this is related to the charging issue, the charging problem screws up the touch's on the screen, which is why the phone app seemlingly appears randomly

Two questions...

My phone does not alert me if I walk away from my S Pen even though I have that option checked, does this not work yet? Also when I use to pull my pen out I would get an icon in the upper left telling me the pen was out.... I no longer get that icon when I take my pen out. Anyone know why?

Same here. I wonder if it has to do with a custom launcher cause im not rooted and the only mod ive made is installed Apex launcher.
Just tested, mine doesnt seem to alert me either

Forgot to add im not rooted. The thing bothering me the most is not getting the Pen icon in my notification bar anymore. I feel like I may forget to put my pen baxk.

I'm rooted, running Frosty JB rom, and Nova prime launcher. I still get the notification that the pen is out and still get alerted if I walk away without the pen attached.
If the phone isn't realizing that the pen has been detached in the first place, why would it alert you that you've walked away from it?
Tried rebooting?
Its crazy it seems hit or miss I've never received the alert and I walked away 30 feet for minutes

You need to have the screen locked AND off. So far it's been 100% when those requirements are set for me. It won't go off a second time if you didn't put the pen back into the silo though unless you unlock the screen after the first warning and you are not within 2 ft of your pen.

+1. Make sure the screen is locked and off. From my understanding, it's an accelerometer deal. Leave your pen somewhere, walk away with it in hand and sway your arms a bit or shake your hand. I went about 30-40 feet and then it went off.
As for the S Pen icon...make sure you have Page Buddy on an S Pen Page check marked also. I'm rooted running Frosty JB and Apex Launcher instead of Touchwiz. I get the notification that it's detached, but the S Pen Page doesn't show up as it's a Touchwiz thing.

The phone does recognize the pen has been detached. When I slide the pen out, the phone beeps and opens up the pen note pad.

That worked! I had page buddy deleted, and just put it back on and now I have the icon again!

Black Screen/mic issue

Hi everyone,
I am having an odd issue. Regardless of the rom I use, very often when either I make a call or receive a call my screen will go black as soon as I answer it or it connects.
The problem though is, i Can't get the screen to go back on until the call disconnects. If I do get the screen to go on by mashing the buttons, the second I get back to the screen that shows the call it goes black again.
Also, at the same time when this happens, people cant hear me, it sounds like I'm in a tunnel according to them. I literally have to scream. The only way I can take call normally is hope it doesnt go black instantly and switch it to speaker phone. Then it works fine.
I am currently running carbon 4.4.2, but its not a rom issue in my opinion as this was happening when I ran Liquid and paranoid.
Any ideas, its getting to the point where its getting very annoying.
Thanks again!
I'd Odin to stock.
And start customizing my phone 1 step at a time to see if something I had running was causing the problem.

Well, guess we will never know because I accidently dropped my stapler on my phone and now its totally busted lol ..already got a new one on the way

Phone app vanished from lockscreen following update

So after my phone got the kitkat update, the phone app on my lockscreen no longer works. It instead displays the little droid like when you have an icon for an app that's no longer installed. Maybe the app just changed locations with the update, because I definitely still have a dialer app. But I use the stock lockscreen and I can't figure out how to change the four apps at the bottom so that I can replace the bad phone one.
Any ideas? It's preventing me from making calls from the lockscreen, which blows if I'm trying to quickly pull my phone out while driving or something.

Remove the phone from your dock on the stock launcher, and re-add it.

Oh, that actually worked. I have nova launcher so I literally never touched my stock one for more than five minutes after turning on the phone for the first time.
Thanks!
