Hi guys. I'm on Cleanrom 4.7.0 and Nova Prime. 2 problems: Every once in a while my task manager won't function. I'll long press home and it will give me Haptic feedback but nothing will show up. Occasionally (I've only noticed this happen while I'm inside an app) the task manager will appear for a split second and then disappear. This is fixed by a restart but it's getting really annoying as it happens quite often.
Second problem: my Wifi and mobile hot spot toggles (top row in notification dropdown) will stop being clickable (I can neither turn them off or on.) I can long press them to enter their settings and turn each one on from there, but the toggles themselves don't work. This also fixes itself via restart.
Anybody have any ideas?
have you tried fixing permissions Or wiping dalvik cache?

Haven't tried that, no. I know how to wipe the delvik cache but how do you fix permissions? Is that also in recovery?

I've noticed that task manager doesn't lways work great in certain apps.. I just click the home button, long press the home button to bring up task manager and delete the unwanted apps, then reopen the app you were in. The process takes literally 2 seconds.

When it stops working it doesn't matter if I'm in an app or not. I've gone to the application manager and closed all apps then tried again, still nothing on the long press. I'm hoping that wiping the cache and fixing permissions did the trick

This started happening to me out of no where. Can anyone think of a solution or the cause of this issue ?
Everytime I hit the home key it will ask me to choose a default launcher. After I do, it will ask me again every time I hit my home key.
Im choosing Touchwiz, the other option is Go home since it comes with my rom.
I'm running Calkulins 2.9.2 rom.
I have uninstalled apps related to Widgets and launchers, cleared defaults etc..
How could I uninstall the go home app completely? Maybe that will do it.
Thanks in advance everyone !

First, you are checking the default checkbox before you select the launcher after pressing home right?
Yes. lol
I could only wish it was that simple.
Its not really a big deal but after a while its annoying having to push an additional button.

Well, just use root explorer or something to delete the application, or just use like titanium backup and un install it that way

The other day I got a phone call and the phone would not wake, I could not doing anything. It just rang, it would not let me answer. The screen remained off the entire time. I hit the power button and screen remained off. I think it eventually restarted the phone. Im stock rom and rooted. Any ideas why this happened?

In app manager you have to scroll over to "All" which will have the phone app listed.

Same here. Stock Unrooted after 4.1.2 OTA. No access to Google Now Menu. Flashes briefly then disappears. Tried to clear cache but won't clear. Tried to uninstall updates in application manger but hangs on uninstalling screen.
Click on the bar at the top to bring up your keyboard and now the menu will stay open.

Menu won't stay open whether keyboard present or not. Using Swiftkey.
Finally got the Google Search update to uninstall and the menu opens normally when not updated. Hmmm.

I have the same issue. Re-updated and menu flashes and disappears.
Add me to this list also. It's a bug in the new search update. It really sucks. Thankfully I don't need to use the menu/setting that much.
If I do I can get into it via settings.
Do a dummy search first, then try it....

Yep, this worked for me too. Now if I can just figure out why my battery life took a hit with the new update. Life will be good again.

I was able to get into that menu. But I still can't get into the menu if nothing is typed in the search bar.

Quick update. Still happening.
Workaround (based on previous posts and trials)
Open Google Now.
Type a space (or any placeholder text in the search bar.
Close the keyboard and retry the menu key. The menu should now pop up and float there.
The search bar seems to have to have something in it for menu to not instantly close again. I've put as little as just that space and it works.
Wonder how Google missed that?

I would hypothesize that this is a Samsung Twiz ROM issue, rather than a Google oops...Trying it on my PACMan 20.1 install I fail to get the bug.
Anyone in this thread so far not using a Sammy TWiz ROM?
Uninstall and re-install Google Search. Clear Google Talk data in App management. Reboot.
It'll work after that.
I already have Unknown Sources checked. I was able to download third party apps in the past. Now when i try to install third party apps, on the installation screen it will not let me press the "install" button and nothing happens. So i have to press the "cancel" button. Anybody else experience this and know whats wrong?

Check your apps page. How much space do you have left?

If you installed screen adjuster, turn it off. It is a bug of the app.
what exactly do you mean by a screen adjuster app? An app that gets you new wallpaper, a app that adjusts brightness, or an app that adjusts the color/gamma? Which one?
Sent from my LG-E980 using Tapatalk 4
How bout a reboot?
When you open an apk file to install the app, do you get a list of options of which installer to use?
Sent from my LG-E980 using Tapatalk 2
I power off my phone often and that has no effect.
yes. When you open the apk you get a list of which installers to use. I tried both installers and i could not get any third party apks to install.

Awesome!!! I couldn't figure this out for the life of me. I had to manually update my Note 3 to Kit Kat in which it wiped my phone, so I lost a bunch of 3rd party apps that I needed to reinstall. One of the new apps my buddy recommended during the in between time of me setting back up my phone was called "Twilight", a app to take the blues out and allow for more dimming of the screen for a better sleep before bed because of all those new studies saying the screen messes with melatonin levels and causes technology hangovers lol. A quick uninstall of that app and bam, it let me press the install button.

HI, I have been having a Terrible lag issue with my SGH-497 (Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1). I can Swype or tap something and it take almost 5-8 second for it respond. I want to troubleshoot the reason behind this. I have successfully started it in Safe mode (starting it and holding down the volume down button). Here, everything seems to work perfectly. On a computer, I can usually figure out what the culprit is, but on the droid, I can't. How do I figure out what app is causing my issue? If I go to the task manager on droid, and clear the RAM, it would close about 40 apps... too many to try one by one...lol
Thanks in advance!
Just a quick tip: you can reboot into safe mode by holding down the power button until the power off prompt pops up. Then long press power off.

Well if you go to the real task manager app can't you see exactly what's using all the ram?

Yeah, I went into safemode. In the task manager there are 0 (zero) apps running. When I clear the RAM, 20 apps close..... but no clue what they are. My tablet also responds much better in safemode.... that's what I'm trying to figure out what is causing the lag...
