[Q] HTC Evo - Stock internet and Dolphin browsers close, with no errors

I'm more of a casual Android enthusiast, so please be kind.
I'm running a rooted EVO 4G on Synergy (RC2) ROM:
Software - 4.24.651.1
PRI - 1.90_003
PRL - 60681
Kernel - 2.6.35.10-gc0a661b
Baseband - 2.15.00.11.19
Browser - WebKit/533.1
Here's my issue (long story, bt I want to thorough):
A couple days ago, I was listening to music via Bluetooth in my car (SYNC), and when I parked and turned the car off, I tried disabling Bluetooth to conserve battery. All of a sudden, a different music player (Mort Audiobook) than the one I was using (Google Music) started playing two tracks simultaneously, but would not register touches to stop playback. I ended up pulling the battery after killing the processes failed.
Upon trying to reboot, got stuck on the white EVO screen. Pulled battery, tried again several times, no change. Finally, got hboot to come up, wiped cache/dalvik, restarted and it finally booted. Once I could get into the phone, I had a message that the SD card was corrupt of blank, and might need reformatting. After freaking out, I pulled the SD and used my PC's reader to thankfully find all my data still there. I made a backup just in case. I then inserted the SD into the EVO again, and this time the phone would not recognize that there was even a card there. Pulled battery, waited, tried again, success. Everything is back to normal. Or so I thought.
Yesterday, I launch Dolphin Browser, it opens like normal, but as soon as I touch the screen (swipe gesture, touch-to-click, or multi-touch for pinch zoom), it closes the browser as it I clicked Exit. No error, no FC, nothing. I then launch the default Internet Browser and it does the exact same thing. Now I'm really confused. So i move dolphin from SD to the Phone memory, no change. I uninstall Dolphin altogether, launch Internet, still no change. I freeze Internet and use Dolphin by itself, no change.
I'm really stuck here, friends. I really hope you can shed some light as to where to start looking. Any help you can offer would be most graciously appreciated!

Have you tried reflashing the rom? You can start with wiping only cache and dalvik and then flashing the same rom over itself. If that doesn't help, make a nandroid backup and either flash a new rom (like stock) or redownload and flash Synergy. Be sure to wipe thoroughly. If you're using Amon Ra, wipe data, system, boot, .android_secure, sd-ext, cache and dalvik. If you're using ClockworkMod, wipe cache, dalvik, and data. I suggest switching to Amon Ra if you're using ClockworkMod and continue to have problems.
After a fresh flash, don't restore any apps until you've checked everything that you've been experiencing issues with. If everything seems normal, then you can restore your apps. Try to avoid restoring system data. If you've flashed something other than Synergy & want to go back, make a nandroid backup so you have a backup of something working. Don't restore Synergy, flash it with a new download and start from scratch.
Before you try all of that, you can try fixing permissions. In Amon Ra it's in the "other" menu listed as "fix apk uid mismatches". In ClockworkMod you should be able to do it from Rom Manager.
You can also try backing up the contents of your SD card and formatting the card.
I know it's a lot of information, but those are the things that I would try if I were in your shoes. It could all be rom related, so if you find that you only have problems with Synergy then it may be time to switch to something else.
Good luck!

I figured that if I'm going to reflash, I might as well try a new ROM, so I went with EVOlution. So far, I like it. And the browser issue is fixed, along with a few latency problems I was experiencing with Synergy.
It seems like I'm good to go, and I'm making a nandroid backup as I write. Thank you for all your help and suggestions!

Brand new Transformer restarting new+Prime rom

Ok, so per my GF's instructions, she did NOT want her brand new transformer rooted. I've rooted every other device of hers and she just wanted this one to be stock.
Anyway, ever since it was brand new after we loaded all her apps on it, it'll restart if it goes to sleep. But its only sometimes. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. We've done a ton of factory resets, I've NVFlashed stock rom unrooted, as well as the Prime rom, formatted the SD card, I mean everything I know to do.
We've tried monitoring apps, to see if there were bugs with any. But it doesn't seem like there are because it'll occasionally reboot even fresh out of a reset with nothing at all installed.
I've got a ton of event logs (ramdumpblahblah.log), is there anyone who knows how to read the issues from the code? I think uploading random files is somewhat of a no no but if there's someone that could help make heads or tails of them I'd sure appreciate it.

How to restore certain apps?

OK, here's what happened.
1. I installed Infinity yesterday and right after reboot, after I signed in with my gmail account and went to market to download an app I normally use, phone automagically downloaded all apps I had previously installed and used all the time. All by itself, which was a pleasant surprise. There is one app that I seriously need as is, which is old Tunewiki, as it still has my free lastfm account on it. Took me years to build my station.
2. I had Humble on the phone before. It's OK, but kinda sluggish. Infinity was apparently faster. So, in my wisdom, I played with phone and found that power button also has CWM recovery feature on it.
3. Considering all the prestidigitation one needs to do to put phone into CWM mode with fingers, I "tried out" how it works - and it worked fine, got me into CWM mode in about a minute
4. Cool, so even in more wisdom, I re-booted phone from CWM mode.
5. After reboot, all my favorite apps and all new settings I did in Infinity were gone. It, basically, rebooted to stock Infinity settings.
6. Now, here's interesting thing. Those apps I was missing, showed in apps list, but not highlighted and with little SD card logo next to them. Basically, they showed as "we are on SD card, not installed". Yes, including my old working Tunewiki.
7. I reverted back to Humble from CWM back up. Everything went back to normal, just like it's supposed to.
8. Re-installed Infinity. This time, apps that downloaded themselves and installed themselves did not do it. I lost my old Tunewiki, lastfm free account, and Voodoo Control now says that phone needs to be rooted in order for it to work.
9. I am back to Humble. Everything works fine. Well, except that with Infinity, streaming was much faster and reliable.
10. I want to go back to Infinity, but I want my apps back the way they did it in step 1. Or, have them somehow re-installed from where they are now, which I assume is SD card, based on that logo next to inactive app. I must have old Tunewiki and Voodoo control working, the rest I can download and re-install.
Suggestions, in simple English, please, are appreciated. I am not a developer, please, do not toss "go to TWI, freeze JLK, twick GHV" at me. I am a simple vanilla phone user that was not born with all that wisdom.
Many thanks.

If you read the op of infinity you would see it is a know issue with the old version of cwm download the new cwm and entering wont cause a data wipe. No being rude but this is clearly stated in the infinity rom thread. To save yourself from a headache in the future dont install anything on your phone without atleast reading the opening posts of the dev.

Go to TWI, freeze JLK, and tweak GHV.

How do I go from XXX to this ROM?
The fastest way to go to this ROM from anything is by downloading and flashing the ROM+Kernel on EXT4 package. That will format your partitions to EXT4 and then install the kernel and ROM. Note that this will wipe all of your user data in the process, so be sure to backup anything you may want prior to flashing.
Help, I restarted into recovery and lost all of my data!
This is an issue that affects people randomly. My opinion is that you can deal with it for the time being. I recommend using a good backup solution that doesn't involve recovery. I say this because I test ROMs and have had my data wiped hundreds of times due to testing over the past several weeks. If I can deal with resetting everything all the time as the developer, you, as the user, should also be able to make due until a permanent solution can be found.
So I do have a back up, except that it's Humble b/up and I don't know how to restore specific apps from it. CONSTRUCTIVE suggestions?

there was a saying back in my 'ol country: saving of a drowning one is the best business of the drowning one himself.
I have just updated to Infinity again, without any problems. But, this time, I updated with short ROM version, one that does not wipe all data and repartition everything.
Basically, all my programs and settings stayed preserved from Humble. All programs I was concerned about stayed untouched, but the rest of the junk is gone, just like I wanted it.
I guess, I can thank to myself for some creative thinking.

HELP! SGS4G Multiple issues: no sound in calls, music, and screen remains on in call!

I have been experiencing some issues with my phone recently. I have flashed multiple roms and everything was working fine for the past 3 months or so. Last week I flashed Hebrew Valhalla, it worked fine for a few days then all hell broke lose! I started experiencing the following issues with the phone:
1. In calls, people can hear me but I cannot hear them through the front speaker. I have to either put it on speakerphone or use my headphones.
2. Whenever I cannot hear people in calls (issue #1 above) then there is also no sound coming from the back speaker when I play music. It only works with headphones.
3. Sometimes when I play music, sound only comes from the phone's speaker. Yes the tables literally turn! Even if I plug in headphones, it keeps playing through the phone's speaker. I use stock music player no mods nothing and yes my headphones and their jacks are good I tried multiple ones.
4. The screen does not turn off while in calls. I used 2 apps to test the proximity sensor and it is working fine. Sometimes when on a call the screen randomly turns on and off but most of the time it remains on.
5. Although the vibration intensity is set to max, when typing, the intensity is random. Sometimes it is strong, other times it is weak. Completely random and it is only for typing. It works fine for notifications and pressing back button or whatever. The keyboard is swype and it used to work fine before.
SOMETIMES when I reboot the phone, Issues #1,2 and 3 fixes themselves; I can hear people in calls, music works fine both in speaker and headphones when necessary, but issue #4 is persistent.
The phone has not taken any falls/hits or anything, so I doubt it can he hardware related? So I assumed it is software related, I went to flash other roms, including the ones I used previously that was working fine and still nothing!!! I even flashed Heimdall one click and started from scratch, and still the same problems in the stock rom.
I have spent days searching all over to no avail. Please if anyone knows the solution or workaround to any of the issues above it will be greatly appreciated!!!!!

How old is the phone? If I were you and it's still under warranty I would consider a handset exchange through your phone provider, and if you choose that method make sure you go back to stock an unroot first before you send

Cannot do
The warranty has long expired, so that's not an option.

Look for the Gremlin Remover in the Dev section.

Trying
I have been trying for the past 5 hours to get the GR to connect to the phone but it just is not working. I have tried installing and uninstalling all drivers rebooting phone, pc, remove battery everything and it just does not work!!!
The only time GR connects to the phone is when it is starting up, or when the os has loaded up fully. whenever I reboot to download mode it disconnects and never connects back to odin when in download mode. What am i doing wrong? I used the drivers in the GR file but it does not work.
Can anyone link to the drivers that will make odin see the phone while in download mode?

Look at the guide in the second link of my signature. Read the notes about drivers, odin and heimdall. You need to completely, thoroughly and patiently make sure you remove them all.
Go to the wiki for the samsung drivers or use kies mini to install the drivers. ODIN is a samsung software and they use the same drivers.

Still not working
So I found the right drivers and just finished flashing GR twice and the problems are still there. after flashing GR the second time I just flashed Hebrew Valhalla and the problems are still there
I really dont think there is anything else I can do?

Did you do ALL of the steps that Thomas posted? Not just the flashing GR.

Yes I did all the steps: 1, 2 then 3, not the "Filesystem Cleaner" part.

You have nothing to lose doing all the steps.

Ok I will do the Filesystem Cleaner part now and update in a while
EDIT:
I installed the android SDK to connect to adb. Thomas's instructions says to go to recovery mode, but the pc only see's the phone as adb when the phone is booted up in normal mode, not when it is in recovery mode.
I used the universal driver installer, is there specific adb drivers for recovery mode?

So before I got the adb to work I kept rebooting the phone and pushed and removed the headphones in the headphone jack multiple times and I was suprised everything started working. I could how hear people in calls, the screen turned off fine during a call, music worked fine. Rebooted again and everything still worked fine! My memory card was formatted so I copied back some of the files that were on it (music, pictures and apk installers for certain apps, and titanium backup folder). I went to install my apps from the apk's not titanium backup, so I did not restore any data just fresh install the apk's....
.....Rebooted the phone and all the problems came back!!!! I tried uninstalling the apps and reboot multiple times but the problems remained, so I said I will try the entire process again.
Ok so I found the drivers and completed ALL the steps now including the adb stuff and the filesystem cleaner. The status was already clean but I still ran the cleaner just to be safe. Then I flashed Gremlin Remover again and the problems still exist. I flashed Octane 3, problems still exist. flashed Hebrew Valhalla and the problems were still there...rebooted multiple times and the incall volume is working FOR NOW, but the screen does not turn off anymore.
I pushed the headphones in and out many times as it worked the first time but it made no difference now. I really do not know what more is there to do

How are calls just using your phone? No headphones. If things were fine before restoring your sd card shouldn't that tell you there is a good chance something on your sd card is messing with your phone?
You should start over again. Be thorough. Do all the Gremlin Remover steps. Leave your sd card fresh after format. Install apps one at a time with time between from the playstore. Don't mess with your headphones yet. And see what state your phone is in.
It could be your phone. An app. Your sd card or some data on it. Or your headphones. Process of elimination.

Do you have accidental damage insurance? Hammer anyone?lol
Seriously though, with using the gremlin remover and system cleaner processes, everything bad should have been removed. However, you stated that the problems reoccoured after restoring your sdcard. My guess would be either a virus (yes it is possible to get a virus or malicious file on our phones) or a corrupt file/files that is contained in your files that you restored to your sdcard. As much of a pain in the ass it may be, you should restore each file one by one and test. Once the issue reoccours, then you know what is the cause. there are some directories/files you should not restore:
Code:
.android_secure
.cache
Android
CachedImages
data
gps
LOST.DIR
temp
tmp
Voodoo
and any folders that pertain directly to any apps you use like 360launcher, goweather, etc.
As lumin said, everything worked fine until you restored your sdcard...

Sadly, this is where I am right now. I did start all over again, formatted the card and only put Hebrew, Octane and Anton's kernel. This is all that is on the card, when I installed them some of the default folders were created. I am yet to put anything else on the memory card, and at the time of this typing I only have basic market apps installed, nothing from transferring from pc to memory card or anything.
1. I have fully cleaned the system using all the steps in GR so I doubt the problem can be with the software on the phone.
2. I doubt it can be an app causing it because even after restoring the official rom just after GR it still does not work.
3. I am not sure if it can be the memory card, since I formatted it so many times, if it had a virus shouldn't it be gone by now? Not sure, just asking. I have some other memory cards handy I will format them and start back from square one again to see how it goes.
4. As for the headphones, I tried different headphones all the same thing. If anything then the problem about the incall sound might be with the headphone port itself. Maybe the phone's hardware or something in that port got stuck or something just something that is making the phone detect a headphone when there is actually none, maybe that's why...that's the most plausible thing I can think of relating to the incall and music volume. Now since I pushed it and out multiple times that maybe fixed it? Not sure..
As for the screen not going off I have no idea; so I will do everything again using a new memory card, not restoring anything, only install market apps one at a time and let you know how it goes.

I followed all the instructions down to the last letter. Did everything over. Removed battery left for some time. Formatted new memory card and only put the cleaner, one mp3 song for testing, Octane and Anton's kernel on it. Did the adb cleaning. Flashed Gremlin Remover. Left for 15 min. Flashed Octane and then Anton's kernel. Reboot and waited 15 min. Did not install anything whatsoever. First thing I did: make a call and play the mp3 file and suprise!! All the problems were still there. Nothing changed. Screen still remained on, no sound in call, no sound from music player; only through headphones like in square 1. Pissed off to the max.
I quit.

Honestly, if you did all that, your device should be running it's best ever... You may have some sort of hardware malfunction. Even after trying different ROMs you still have the same issues correct?
I can tell you, I started experiencing some really bad things (not near as bad as yours) after I flashed a ROM WIP, and it took me several flashes to get my phone up and working again. But the only thing that was even remotely hardware related was the mis-calibration of the screen... I have to say, your problem is one of a kind...
However, have you tried pulling a logcat to see if by some chance there was something in there?

I don't know anything about logcat and how to interpret it. I see nearly 20k lines of text when I did it, what exactly should I look for?
I added it to my dropbox account if it is going to be helpful, here is the link:
This is the logcat I saved from my phone. Click it

I'm almost positive that it's some mechanical/electrical problem with the headphone jack. Something is stuck there, or it's dirty, so the controller erroneously detects like something is always plugged in. Hint: you said earlier that it suddenly started working when you were actively plugging-unplugging headphones.

Yes I believe so too. I will try to open the phone to see what I can find concerning the headphone issue.
What about the screen not going off? Any suggestions?

[Q] Ideas on JellyBam issue?

Hi, everyone. First I want to thank everyone who takes their time to come and help people like me who mess with things we don't know anything about - such as rooting phones, etc
I installed JellyBam 4.0.0 on my (US T-Mobile) HTC One S S4 earlier this evening. Everything so far seems to be working fine except there is no external audio - no ringtone sound, no radio or music file sound, no notification sound, etc. However, the headphones work fine. I'm not great with tech things, but I'm not a complete idiot, either. I've searched for similar issues and can't find one posted, don't see any settings that may be causing the issue... I'm at a loss.
JellyBam was installed on TWRP recovery and the boot.img was flashed immediately after installation via fastboot. I'm trying to think of what other information from me would prove helpful, but I can't come up with anything else.
So, can anyone offer any ideas as to what the problem (and solution!) may be? I will add that immediately prior to beginning the flash of the ROM and boot.img, I updated the HTC drivers through HTC Sync/Windows 7.
Thanks for any insight or ideas.

Thank you. I just tried that and there's no change. Also went into the sound menu, turned everything down (volume settings) then opened it again and turned everything back up. No change.
I suppose I could walk around everywhere with me headphones on I love this ROM.

Do you think he might have to do what I did for the sd card, maybe that will kick in what he is missing plus doing the full wipe and re-flashing the ROM just wondering?

No its an old bug that's been there for as long I can remember lol but changing the volume should fix it.

Just to make sure I understand (because I am technology-challenged), when you say changing the volume - I assume you're talking about either using the volume rocker on the side of the phone or simply going into Settings > Sound and changing the volume sliders there.
Correct?

Ya I mean the first but both ways should work but do it without the headphones.
---------- Post added at 04:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:11 PM ----------
Oh just popped in the head but try having music playing and do it.

I did. Tried it when searching ring tones, then tried it with Google Music playing a track, tried it with local radio playing and tried it with nothing at all playing.
So let me ask you this - can I make a backup (Titanium Backup) of all my current settings so that when I wipe/reinstall, I don't have to redownload all my apps and redo everything?
Lol - I gotta say, though, as irritating as it is to have only this one issue... I love this ROM and the way my phone works with it. It's worth the hassle if I can get it fixed. (Especially considering I almost bricked it yesterday before finally finding this ROM.)
I should really not mess with stuff I know nothing about. But I just can't help it.

Load TWRP and do a backup there, then still in TWRP do factory reset and reboot and skip over the signing in stuff and then try playing with volume without plugging in the headphones and if this still don't work you could try in TWRP factory reset and then system and them reflash the rom and if this still some how don't work you can restore the backup in TWRP.

Ok, I'll do that now - but first, one more stupid question. After this, I'll leave you alone.
When I first installed this ROM, I went through Fastboot to flash the boot.img. Do I have to do that again if reflashing the ROM, or can I skip that step?
Thanks for all your guidance. Seriously.

Update on thread
So I followed the instructions above.
Went into TWRP, did a factory reset and rebooted. Played with volume. Still no external audio.
Went back into TWRP, factory reset, wiped system, reflashed ROM (did NOT manually reflash boot.img in Fastboot) then rebooted. Played with volume. Still no external audio.
Went back into TWRP and restored the backup - so I'm still left with a killer phone with no external audio, ringtone, etc.
Hmmm.... hope nobody calls when I can't hear/feel the vibrate or have my headphones in
That's strange though - I find no other threads mentioning a glitch like this and, except for this one issue, the phone/ROM works flawlessly. It even fixed the wifi connection problem that always existed with the stock phone/ROM and I know a lot of people with this phone have had that problem. With the stock, the wifi always had a problem (from the first day) connecting to my home wifi. Sometimes it would connect but normally it would take a long time (an hour or more) before finally connecting and still other times it wouldn't connect at all. Now if I leave the house, it connects as soon as I pull up in the driveway and if I power down/reboot, it connects instantly upon reloading.
Just before installing the ROM (the first time) I connected with HTC Sync via my pc/usb and made sure drivers were up to date, which is why I'm thinking it's not a driver issue. Would you agree?

Just before installing the ROM (the first time) I connected with HTC Sync via my pc/usb and made sure drivers were up to date, which is why I'm thinking it's not a driver issue. Would you agree?

Ya not sure what's up if you still got your backup you could try another rom like CM10 to see if its the same. The wifi confused me, everybody else find AOSP not as good at wifi, for me Sense let me set the router how ever I want but on AOSP I have to have it at default settings.

Final update on this thread
Earlier, I wiped everything (through hboot) and reflashed JellyBam. Once rebooted, not only did I still not have audio, but the wifi connection went back to normal - it would connect, but not without difficulty/delays. Strange,
Since I can't feasibly go without a ringtone/alarm/notifications (I use my phone for my business) I rewiped everything from TWRP and installed Dark Jelly v23 to include the Fusion Ultimate kernel. On first boot, still no sound but the notes here mention that may be an issue until it's rebooted a second time. So I set everything up, played around with the same ideas we were using earlier in this thread (to no avail) and then rebooted.
Wifi is the same as it always has been (with the exception of the glorious several hours when it worked like a champ on JellyBam). That's no big deal - I'm used to it and know it's an HTC One S quirk.
But....
Sound is back :good:
