Could use suggestions on an issue

I recently flashed to Shav3d on my wing camera worked 1 time then neither the button or shortcuts would work thinking some how i might have corrupted a file or the rom just didn't like me i went over to numb3rs .. still no camera so i jumped back to shav3d again at this time i still have no camera and was wondering if anyone had had this particuler problem and if so if you might be able to reccommend a fix. Thanks ahead of time for your advice and input.

have you tried anybody elses WM6.5 Roms? All the ones listed were made by Ace who isn't doing any updates (Atleast i don't believe he is) but i don't think anyone else had those problems with his ROMs

Good point i'll try another this evening. Open to suggestions on which. didn't figure was a common. Problem as didn't see mention of anthing about it posted. Thanks for the respond.

they are all good... really just depends what you want M2D or titanium or niether.

Yea, that's weird. I would hazard to guess that the phone's hardware is having a problem somewhere. I don't have that problem at all.
As to updates to my ROM's, well, if these TP2 people would stop freakin releasing soooo many ROM's, then I could work on mine! I'm trying to tweak up the visuals, and fix some minor bugs. But there's nothing that really needs a major update, just some very minor things.
But there's millions of ROM's out there now. You can try everything. It's impossible to say which is good now.

Thanks guys ill keep chasing the issue except for that one minor matter i love your ROM's Ace so keep it up

I'm still a noob, but whenever I've done something or tried a ROM that jacked up my wing, I revert back to stock ROM, and try again from scratch. I know it's probobly a long way about the problem, but it works for me. lol! like I said, still a noob. lol.

Sorry to have to resurrect this thread. I'd really like to stick with the numb3rs ROM, there has to be a way to fix the camera; I'm hoping someone knows how.
I also noticed the home screen & tmail randomly crashes when I open a message & it halts on "loading". grr.
Unless anyone knows of a cleaner ROM with a similar UI?

Check to make sure your SD Card is working properly?

Nexus S Freezing - How big a problem is this?

I'm on the verge of buying a Nexus S but I am now reading about many freezing issues where the phone loses all responsiveness after the backlight goes out on occasion - the only solution being to pull the battery and reboot, only to have it happen again.
This thread shows that some people are returning their phones to Samsung and are seeing a fault diagnosis of 'bad BGA' and a fix of 'PBA replaced'
Original Problem:
Technical Inquiry
Phone Freezing / Locked U
Freeze/Delay Between Menu
Problem found:
BAD BGA COMPONENT
WARRANTY, REPLACE PART
Solution:
Replaced PBA
Passed All Functional Testing
Just how wide a problem is this, is it something that will affect pretty much everyone at some point or are these cases failry isolated?
edit: I am buying from someone who has this phone on contract so I am wondering also if I will be able to get support from Samsung should I run into this problem. Are warranty issues dealt with by Samsung direct or are they passed through the carrier when originally obtained on contract?
Any thoughts?

never experienced any of these problems. you have a 30 day return policy (maybe less now)

Unfortunately not, see my edit above.
Also, it seems users are running into this problem after owning the device for a while, taking them beyond their 28 day / 30 day return

i've had mine since it was first available and never had any problem like this.

I've also never seen this.

same. ive had it maybe like a 1.5 week after release date

It happens to me if i mess around with custom kernels and o/c speed but so far if i use netarchy's stable CFS, it'll be fine. No freezing and having to pull my batt.
It happens if i use hornity or some BFS kernels. Haven't tried Jame Bond yet to test it out.

i think the OP is confusing the SGS issues with SNS
the SNS doesn't have any of those problems listed.

the thread the OP linked is Nexus S

only time that has happened to me is when i overclock to 1.4 ghz and the phone can not handle it

Ok, it's encouraging that this isn't affecting everyone but still a bit worrying.

Wrong - as zephiK has pointed out, the link is to a whole load of people having issued with the Nexus S, NOT the Galaxy S.

I believe the most problems with smartphones are in software, not hardware. And software could/should be patched/updated.

and this is one of the reasons that preventing me from walking into cpw and buying it tomorrow.

I am Having this exact issue with my phone. it is unusable the phone freezes every 20 minutes. Hope Samsung finds a fix for this soon.

I just got my nexus s the other day but I haven't had any freezing either I hope those with the issue get it sorted out though

loading another ROM would help, or perhaps it might be a hardware issue, in which case, take it back for an exchange

Happens in stock rom, and many other custom roms too. So I dun think its the rom problem

oh dear, this is exactly what I'm concerned about. Any pattern as to which are affected by this, ie just slcd or just samoled? Only a thought.
I shall soon receive my second nexus s and I really don't want to have this problem!

I'm using the i9023 if that info helps.

Yes thanks but it's not what I wanted to hear as the chances are that this is the one I will receive.
I've heard of people reporting successfully fixing this with a full reflash, others say it's a hardware issue.
Keep us posted.

Let's recap the new update

After about one day of this GB update, what can we tell? Still any issues? Some people bricked their phones, so is there any idea why? Can we recap on what has been achieved this far? Are there any flashable ROMs with all good stuff?

The phone is still buggy. I have been having issue with BT and the phone locked up on a call once.
Basically, sometimes when I turn my BT headset off, it will still say it is connected on the phone. I will need to turn the BT off and then back on to get it to work correctly again.
As for the phone locking up. I was on BT and switched over to the speaker phone and the phone just died. I had to do a battery pull to get it to turn back on.
So it really just sounds like they need to work on BT more because I never had these issues on Froyo.

Did you update the baseband?

I'm curious about this too! I was about to start a tread, but this one shall do.
Questions -
1. (People having reboots before update)
*Did it fix the reboot issue?
2. (People with signal problems before update)
*Did the new baseband fix this/ do you get better signal now??
3. Another problem I have is that wifi and 4G constantly battle each other to see which one gets the signal. So I have to turn wifi on and off until 2G/4G go away.
(For people that have this)
*Did this get solved?
4. * Does GPS lock faster/work better?
I've had three different phones and I've had same issues with all three and even trying different roms. A different rom might fix one issue, but not the others for me.
My main concern is the reboot and signal issues!
These are questions for people that have same or similar issues.
NOT for people with no issues before update.
So please NO "There is nothing wrong with my phone!" People.
Thanks!!
....

For those who are still having problems after the update it might be wise just to do a factory reset because froyo and gbread is very different...

* GPS locks much faster now, often instantly, and indoors.
* Switching between 2G/4G seems to be smoother; doesn't lose the connection for a few seconds like it used to

I had reboot issues before and so far haven't had any, but to make a proper conclusion I'll have to wait, as even before the update sometimes I would make it days between reboots/shut offs and sometimes only hours.
GPS appears to be very good now, as for wifi/4g/2g I always turn off 2g and use only wcdma setting, and haven't had any issues with it, I leave my wifi and BT on at all times too even when not connected and don't have too bad battery strain.
some things I noticed, in the gallery now when I hit share I don't see the gmail option, the camera reverted back to stock, which is a shame because I loved the things the LG cam app had, but there are a lot of camera apps (I love vignette) so that's not a huge issue, if anyone has the lg app I would love it back though.
I did have some sluggishness especially this morning, I downloaded some widgets though so it might be more of what I added than the update itself.
one surprise was that I thought it was supposed to wipe all data etc. from the phone, but everything was set up the same as I had it before with launcher pro, so I was happy I didn't have to start from scratch. Also I have been getting occasional force closes with launcher pro that I didn't have before.
as far as quadrant scores go I'm getting consistant 2600+ so that is good, I had Faux's kernal and OC to 1300 w/ pimpmycpu and was getting 2800-3000 so without OC I'm more than happy with 2600. Now if only netflix will make it's way to this phone as is, and hopefully we can root soon as i really want ROM Manager, pimpmycpu and a few other root only apps to work again! Love this community, everyone is so helpful and creative, keep up the good work.

GPS locks Faster
Google Music Beta offline feature does NOT work, won't download.
Android Market did not restore my previous apps.
Touch screen is still dodgy, sometimes requiring multiple touches.
Email, specifically @Live.com mail will not display junk mail. Other folders, yes, but not junk.

Has anyone figured out why some people have bricks trying to update? To be honest I still hesitate to do the update because I still don't know why this happens

MOST of the situations seem to be because they didn't want to follow directions, and insisted on doing it their way...then, "OMG! LG BRICKZORD MY PHONE!!!"
I'm sure there were a minority few that had some other difficulty, but from what I read, almost every "brick" post I read had failed to list "nvflashed stock recovery" as one of the prerequisite steps.

I think it's worth waiting for a rooted flashable version a day or two and to avoid any risks.

I wish that were true for me. As I've mentioned in other threads, I'm still getting 90-180 second TTFFs, which is about where I was with stock Froyo. I hope someone will reply to my question in the other thread about the system settings they have that give them such good results. I've fiddled with all of the ones in the hidden menu GPS Test section and haven't found a good combination (and I don't know what the factory settings are supposed to be any more); it's hard because of having to wait a few hours between tests to let the ephemeris data expire in the receiver so I won't just be getting a carryover hot fix.

Hmm, that's strange; I still have Gmail in the list of options for "Share" in the gallery.
As for the camera, I think I actually like this one better. At least, it seems to do a better job of taking close-ups with the flash. With the original LG camera, close-up flash photos were always blown-out and overexposed. I took a couple of test shots in a dark room with the flash, and they look great, about as good as you can get with an LED flash, I think.

If I recall, once you reach the % range....the install range, it tells you, do NOT disconnect. Some of the pictures people were showing were in the Analyze area, before the actual download and install. I think if you get past the analyze phase you can install. I don't believe you can get past it with CWR installed.
Even still, the anticipated failure rate of an update like this (Bricked), is like 8 digits to the right of the decimal point. Even with the problems MS had with the NODO update on the Samsungs, the total # of failures was like 8 World wide. (or just over half their sales. )
So the process is pretty well tested and known.

I only had one hiccup where after i got to the S/W screen (after I had already downloaded but before the update) it said that I did not have the phone connected so i unplugged and plugged back in and that didnt work... so I unplugged, pulled the battery, put it back in, plugged in and everything went smoothly

[Q] mm qcamera issue

Good morning all,
I'm sure most of you are familiar with the "mm qcamera" bug. In a nutshell it is a service used by the camera that *sometimes* stays open on some nexus devices (and possibly any Android device) consuming large amounts of battery in the background. By large I mean 20% an hour sometimes more!
The bug was supposedly reported in android 4.4.2 and fixed in a later version of Android. (4.4.4? I'm not sure). I can confirm this still happens to my nexus 5 once in awhile.
Upon researching, it seems most threads are about the 4.4.2 software, however my Nexus is running 4.4.4 and is still experiencing the bug. It is hard to find anything to read on 4.4.4, most search results talk about older software.
My question is this: Is anyone experiencing this bug on their nexus 5 (or really any android device) running 4.4.4? Has anyone found a solution other than rebooting the device?
Here is some more information on the topic

It only happens for some people and the reason behind it is unknown. For some it is a major issue, and for others it's never existed. Only way to get it to (maybe only temporarily) go away is to reboot. Not much you can do about it, but some have said it's better if camera apps are changed to user apps rather than leaving them as system apps.

I doubt it, it might be a hardware driver issue, nobody knows what the real cause is. Personally I don't have this issue, I don't think another ROM or kernel will change anything much, although it's worth a shot if the drain applies to you.

It gives me a good reason to change ROMs.. haha. Ill give it some time and see what happens thanks for the quick reply so early in the morning!

Depends where you are in the world.. 10:46pm here in Australia. :angel:
But yeah, I have no idea if another ROM would fix the issue in any way. If it helps a little it's more likely because it's a clean flash, not because of the ROM itself, but who knows. Kernel won't affect this at all.

well, the camera daemon is normal to show up, especially when you use the camera or apps that use the camera. and its normal for it to take a larger % of battery than the camera app itself. what you havent really done is actually describe your problem. as far as i know, you dont have an issue, at least until you describe it. again, its normal for the camera daemon to appeae. now please, describe your actual problem. screenies?

what's not normal is if it continues to drain battery, which i havent seen personally in a while, nor read any real complaints on it in a long time.

I've heard it only happens now when you leave the offending app that uses the camera (snapchat, skype, etc) running in the background. I can't confirm though as I've never had the issue even before the update.

I can confirm I have the continual drain, unfortunately this was the other day and since then I have rebooted and charged my phone. I'm glad its only once in a while but from what I researched it should have been fixed in 4.4.4.
More info is available in the link I posted in the 1st post including screenshots and even links to XDA. The problem I have experienced a few times so far on 4.4.4 is identical to the link in OP.

do you have any apps that use the camera? and i mean any, there are many. if you used that app, and iy continued running in the background, the the camera daemon would also run in tbe background. if it is the old camera daemon issue that youre experiencing, then it would happen every time the camera is used, not occasionally. if its only once in a while, something else is causing your issue. i had the issue before, every single time i used the camera, not occasionally.

Problem with my OnePlus One's Screen!

Hi there,
(Im opening a new thread as the old one was completely off the topic of the original post)
So on CM11S, my phone screen was working fine. After the CM12S update, my phones screen sometimes doesn't respond correctly when I go to unlock my phone with the unlock pattern. (The timing of the update and the problem occurring may just be coincidence) Its as if holding your finger on the screen isn't registered as staying on the screen, its like the phone thinks I am lifting my finger off and reapplying it very quickly, I cant draw my unlock pattern and unlock my phone. It also affects the 'swipe down' I must do to get the unlock pattern prompt.
If I restart my phone, it usually fixes the problem. Although in the past few days, it has started happening more frequently and sometimes restarting the phone doesn't solve the issue. It is becoming more of a frustration now because of how frequently I have to restart my phone just to unlock it.
I first believed that using a glass screen protector was the problem, I thought the glass was causing ghost touches, so I removed my glass protector and replaced it with a film protector, at first it seemed that this was the problem, but I have just encountered the problem again. I'm not sure if its a hardware or a software issue, because restarting the device is fixing the problem most of the time, but its also switching off all power to the digitizer during a reboot so I cant tell what is the culprit.
I've opened a support ticket with OnePlus but it says it can be up to 10 days before I get a reply, I figured I'd post here too to see if anyone else has had similar issues or even found a fix.
Thanks in advance!

I had the same problem
I was having the same issue, although I never updated to CM12S. Instead, this happened to me when running Exodus Lollipop ROM and the SlimLP ROM. Since then, I have switched to Paranoid Android Alpha2 and have not had the issue recur in the last few days running PA. So to me it seems like a software glitch in many of the Lollipop ROMs. Try PA if you like and see if it's fixed.

welcome to ghost touch
google "oneplus one ghost touch" and join the hundreds of other known cases

I had a feeling this was the ghost touch issue, but my phone hasn't really had actual ghost touches, its just that most of screen stops working. I've got a few videos of it happening. First the screen goes a bit unresponsive, then after a short while, about 1/3 of the screen is completely unresponsive, I switched on show touches in development options and you can see that from the middle to the bottom of the screen there is no response unless I use the very edge on the right side, then it works, its like it has a dead spot. If I reboot my phone, that usually fixes the problem for a while, sometimes up to a whole day, but the problem comes back with time.
I was given a patch by the OnePlus automated support message, and it says my case has been forwarded to a specialist. I have just applied the patch which has rolled me back to CM11, I'm guessing it did more than just that, but the patch and notes don't really explain what it does. Either way, I'm in the process of receiving OTA updates so I can get back on CO12 so I can hopefully restore my data with my ADB backup (never done this before, not rooted my One yet)
Has anyone had any success with this patch?
Thanks
EDIT: So my ADB Backup isn't restoring on my phone. I am using Holo Backup (formerly Simple ADB Backup) and when I chose restore and select the backup, it just show the output for the help command from ADB and then doesnt appear to do anything else. Are there any manual commands to restore my backup or have I done something wrong?

Try going back to cm11s and then check...
Sent from Android (a google product)

Hi there,
So heres an update, I applied the first patch and it rolled me back to CM11S and the issue was still present on CM11S, I then got OTA's back up to CO12 and the issue still happens. I have turned off the off screen gestures and the ambient wakeup thing. It doesn't happen as often but when it happens, 2 restarts are needed to get it running smooth again.
My support ticket with OnePlus has gone quiet and I don't really know what my next step is? I have heard there is a second patch but I couldn't backup properly last time with ADB so I don't know if I want to go through all of the wiping and reupdating again when people report the 2nd patch is also ineffective.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I feel a bit cheated now knowing that my phone has what I can tell to be a manufacturing defect / hardware issue.

Another update here.
So after a week of silence from the OnePlus tech support, I have a new person handling my ticket and he has told me that I need to apply another display patch. I'm guessing this is the 2nd patch and not this final patch which was mentioned by Carl on Facebook.
Either way, I ran into a problem applying the 1st patch, I couldn't make a proper backup of my phone before I did the patch. I used SimpleADBBackup which I thought would work well but it took a very long time to create the backup and then when I applied the backup back onto my newly flashed phone, It missed many apps, only did app data for a few apps and didn't take any of my pictures or SD storage, so all my SMS and Call log backups were also lost. I would like to take a proper backup this time but I don't know how to do it? I don't trust this ADB backup method, even on the Simple ADB Backup program, it admits that ADB backups are hacky and untested.
I have been trying to use Helium but for some reason, my phone wont get past connecting it to the computer companion app, I have all phone drivers and ADB drivers installed correctly, but helium on the android side cant seem to see the computer app, the computer side of the app says that helium is enabled, but on my phone it is stuck on "waiting for the helium desktop app".
I feel like I'm having the worst luck with this phone, and its frustrating because I really like this phone and this flaw is really getting in the way of using this phone, I counted 8 restarts in one day due to the screen not working.
I hope someone can help me out, I don't want to fully wipe my phone again and I cant seem to back anything up correctly!

I'm not sure if a full solution has been found yet. I read on Facebook that they are working with Synaptics to make a final patch which should solve the issue.
I've given up on trying to backup my phone without root, it just seems impossible to do right. I've just applied the 2nd display patch and got my phone running again, I think I may stay on CM11 and just forget lollipop until this issue gets resolved. I'm pretty sure last time I was on KitKat, the issues were there still but it may be less frequent, who knows?!
Do I have a better chance of seeing this screen issue less on KitKat or should I just update to CO12 for the 3rd time?

Another update here,
I have been instructed and have booked a remote session with OnePlus. I'm guessing they are going to be flashing CO12 or OxygenOS and hopefully some kind of display patch or calibration fix. I really hope this solves my problem, the issue has become a daily occurrence and I have also finally seen a ghost touch, it looked like it was trembling . I really love this phone apart from this issue but it happens way too often to ignore it. Ill post what happens after the session.

Thanks for this, I'm not going to root yet though because I think I'm finally at the stage where I can start the RMA process, I have a new video of the touch screen being unable to maintain a touch and drag gesture, and then another video doing the same action but just after restarting my phone - it works fine after the restart.
During this support session, I was flashed onto Oxygen OS and I really miss CO12 now, so many features that I grew accustomed to are not present in Oxygen. Oxygen does seem quite solid, but I've gotten way too used to all the features of Cyanogen.
Oh well, ill live with it until I get another reply from the support team.

I write with the assistance for 10 posts at today and I declare them to STOP sending me those bug non fixing ROMS/ZIPS...
I will replace by myself the screen (they don't change it in warranty because I've on the frame some dents... )
It's a clear HW issue, on any software, if the display degrade to a "fail stage" you wan't come back never to a total solve situation.
I loved my Oneplus, but they buy some batches of too cheap display, and after some month, I see clearly the results.

Thanks man,
It went well, I have been issued an RMA and will be sending it back soon. Just waiting on the postage label.

Ive just received my new OnePlus One today, very chuffed as it hasn't cost me anything. RMA and Support with OnePlus may be a bit slow but at least they do the right things!
To anyone facing screen issues, create a support ticket and persist with it, it should pay off!

Flash the latest CM 12 nightlies and you're good to go

Your a bit late here man, that phone has been sent back and I'm on my 2nd OPO now, using the latest official CO12 build with these touchscreen fixes. No touchscreen problems on this phone.
