Hi guys i have a problem, my phone always goes to auto speakerphone when i make calls and receive calls, however when i flash back to the stock ROM and radio the problem goes away but when i re rooted the phone and flash any ROM the phone goes to auto speakerphone, by the way my phone was working great this pass few months and it was rooted. Any help will be appreciated
I'm sorry that this happens to you, it seems this error is very rare.

Dont know if this will help but this is a common problem with htc's. There are 2 pins in the usb port that get shorted out with gunk,rust, or whatever. I use a pick, some contact cleaner and some fine cloth to clean the pins. I also use compressed air to blow it out. This has happened to a ton of my friends evo's and both of my inspires. Its annoying as hell I know. Hope this helps, good luck

Thanks for the answer but unfortunately it doesn't fix the problem
I also have this same issue... Works fine no problems on stock unrooted. But once I root I get this same problem.. I have had this same issue in the past but never only on a rooted phone.. I have also been on a rooted ROM for a long time and this issue popped up last week.. Now I am stuck with stock until I can figure this out.

UPDATE: I have the stock ROM but rooted and it works well, however if i install another ROM the problem starts again, I install cyanogenmod and found out what is causing the problem, the car dock mode is automatically turning on, also the car dock apk from other ROMS are newer than the car dock apk from the stock ROM
I was able to disable Cardock in Virtuous Unity but still got the speaker phone issue... I guess HTC fixed this issue in the newest Inspire Rom because of all the phones returned because of it, but those fixes haven't been implemented in community roms.. That's the only explanation I can come up with.
UPDATE: I installed the stock ROM rooted and was working well, but when i changed the kernel the problem was back.

Here is a kernel for CM7 removing dock accessory detection based on the latest CM7 kernel. If someone wants to build a version for Sense or based on another kernel, just unselect config_usb_accessory_detect and config_dock_accessory_detect support under USB Support > USB Gadget Support > Dock Accessory Detect in the kernel config before building.

I made a youtube video of my problem here:
youtube.com/watch?v=LL_kubZ4ENc
Have anybody else had this issue with their touchscreen? I have tried to factory reset the phone. Go back to stock rom lock the bootloader, and unroot. But the problem still appear. Also tried to clean the screen and only charge it with the original charger. Nothing helps I have tried to send questions to samsung but no answers.
Have anyone here had similar issues and found a fix?

Im on Miui with matrix cfs 5.5 (9023)

I have this problem also, im on CM7 nightly. cant unlock the screen. Phones barely 3 days old
Had that same problem, and it's gone now. Don't know what did fix it, but I flashed new radio and Trinity kernel, and the problem is gone now...
I thought with the 2.3.5 the problem was solved, but its back now... dunno what it is, my phone is 2 weeks old.
I'm experiencing the same issue on a stock, not rooted or in any way modified Nexus S I9023 (SCLCD version) with Android 2.3.6
Also the settings button is right under the line (so the location is different from the video) and it is unresponsive as well.
Does anybody have any idea what to do about this???
Hi all!

Still turning on. So i reflasherd kernel. Still turning on. So i clear cache, wipe dalvik and fix perimissions. Still turning on.So i flashed whole ROM with kernel Bricked 1.4 and did full-wipe. Still turning in. So i flashed come CM ROM with their own kernel. Still turning on....After some time for try turn it on, it says something like "fault, Fail..."(i am using other language, than english)
My vacation starts just great...

router works, coz we are using several phones and notebook @home...

Or maybe if i get back to S-ON, unroot and restore complete stock...?

The other thing worth considering are the 2 gold pins inside the phone,just above the camera lens.
GENTLY lift them to make a better contact.

I have this problem too. I've been using ViperS 1.1.0 for a few weeks without any wifi problem. Yesterday, the wifi was working like normal then in the evening I flashed HyperNonsense 3.3 just to try it. Didn't like it, so I restored nandroid of my ViperS, then flashed yank555's faux123 kernel v2.52. I only realised wifi is not working today morning. It just shows "Turning On", but nothing happens. Could it be kernel issue? Previously i was using yank555 v1.9 without any issue thoguh.
i also have the same problem with the wi fi turning on for 10 mins then it shows error
mine came with the initial ics ota update a very common problem i see on the net not only wifi but bluue tooth also not work
i installed the latest ota a week or so ago which cured a few bugs but still no wifi or bluetooth
so.... i did jb s offf , root etc installed CM9 this fixed the blue tooth and made the screen move reactive and smooth this is one cool ROM BUT still no wifi
any and all suggestions welcome but please consider i am a noob http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/confused.gif and may need a few signposts

I honestly don´t know, i thought, wifi is (almost)only kernel related, but now i see, that it is not :/ It is almost exactly my problem, i was using ViperS and changed kernel...but it didn´t suit me, so i restored the previous one...than i woke up and wifi is gone i cant solve it for now, i don´t have any freetime at this moment for making full stock condition.
i have tested stock rom with stock kernel, with some other HBOOT but still the same.

Your wifi stops working through an official update? You should claim it! it is not your fault...for me, everything works, except thing about wifi like tethering etc., thats a serious problem, even reflasing the whole phone (rom, radio, hboot, kernel) doesn't help :/
I had Xperia Arc before Sensation XE and reflash always helps, no matter what happens.

All I had to do was pull that file out from the directory and turn on wifi and *poof* it worked again. When I turned wifi on it created a new file and everything has been great so far this afternoon.
In case anyone wants to give it a shot who is having wifi issues you can find the wpa_supplicant.conf file in /data/misc/wifi/ directory on your phone. Simply cut/rename the file and put it somewhere else. If you have wifi passwords you want to save, you can open the original file using a text editor and copy the settings over to the new file.
I believe the cause of my issue was actually Titanium Backup. Looking at the last time it backed up my wifi settings was back when I wasn't running ICS yet. Yesterday I did restore an app using it and must have accidentally restored that old backup. Their formats are different from Gingerbread to ICS apparently and it was causing errors.
i found this on another post dont know if it will help but it could be the problem with the ota update from gb to ics
now the silly noob question how do you access the directory ????http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/icons/advanced/sign.png
i got into the directory but it doesnt seem to work in another thread someone got it to work with a virtuous rom
ill try that on thr weekend
enjoy your vacation
hmmm thats iteresting, but if you do full-wipe and flash some rom and kernel, these files are rewriten...but because i am curious i tried it and!!! it is not working for me :-/
And how to get into this directory?Simply... download dome file manager from Play Market(i lika Total Commander), but you can use whatever you like, set in options "root function everywhere" and allow superuser. than you can go in any directory and read/write/change
EDIT: ou, now a see whole post, ignore my instruction i am mega-sleepy

You could flash back to stock firmware and try again. If the error persists then the files are probably not right for your phone.

The files the OP pulled are for his phone based on the baseband shown. It looks like it may be related to the OTA update that came through recently.

That explains it, the OTA update includes a slightly changed kernel (based on what I saw in the diffs) that is likely causing your WiFi issue. Can you try applying motorhead's kernel from here and see if WiFi starts working? I know it is not a full fix, but it should get your wifi back to working while motorhead and I coordinate on getting a stock kernel that can be flashed from CWR put together.
YEEEEE HAAAAWWWWW
I got some WIFI !!!!
Camera, BT and sound, seems like everything works.
Can't imagine why not a "Full fix".
Thank You !!!!
Says there is an OTA update, after it downloads, I get tossed into CWM bootloader 6.1.1 and the update doesn't get applied.
All I do is choose 'reboot system'.
Also I'm getting ...
"[ AT&T Address Book] Checking Subscriber Information"
when I touch contacts.
I am not an AT&T customer, I use STLK the BYOP program.
We really need a custom ROM for this great device, no bloat, no AT&T updates, no AT&T bloatwares, No CIQ, No City ID.
I would be HAPPY to PAY for a custom ROM and have it delivered two weeks from last Thursday. Jellybean?
Someone like me who chooses a rugged phone may not be into all the bells and whistles, so a basic stripped down
ROM would be great.
and yes, I am getting lag coming out of deep sleep. may have to hit power button twice to unlock.
Can't wait to try Motorheads soon to be released power kernel...

Check the super thread. I have an ODIN image that is pretty stripped down and it includes the 6.x version of CWR. I left a few things in "just in case" but they can easily be stripped out using any of the various root tools for removing system apps.

The lag is a noted issue, along with the WiFi shutting off randomly and intermittently. I'm researching these issues as much as I can to find a fix, but I can only do so much so fast .
I was going to start a new thread but then I found this. I too had the issue with I the wifi turning off and the screen lag. After reflashing the no bloat Odin image and the 1.1 kernel my wifi turns on, but does not find any networks. It just searches then shuts off? Any ideas? I wonder if the stock kernel being worked on would fix this or if there is something else wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I sent the rugby smart to SAM to have it completely reloaded. when it comes back, i will try to make a back up much like i make an image of a hard drive...if that's possible.
For my PC, I have an image of this existing hard drive. If i pull it out and put in a BLANK hard drive, I can write the image to the new disk with all my apps installed...I use that feature often with my pc's and others...for mine, I frequently make a new updated image and delete the oldest one.
Once I change the bootloader, is it possible to get it back if I backed up with with Kies?
You guys are in luck. Kernel1.2 should be out shortly with the lag and wifi fixed . I'm waiting to hear back from another tester, but so far ut's proven stable. I've only had one error pop up, and that was after running pretty hard.
Motorhead1991, Is this for the Samsung Rugby Smart?
How much of, if any, overclocking??
Can you also tweak a non-overclocked version without "City ID" app, "Carrier IQ" app and possibly no AT&T bloatware??
You rock for everything thus far
No overclocking just yet, but I'm giving it hell. On the bright side, Kemonine and myself are currently treading in uncharted territory for this device (see if anyone gets my reference)
And to answer your question, yes it'll be for the Rugby.
iam not sure

Yeah, it actually did hurt to ask that one.
So after flashing the following new odin images
•Stock boot / kernel:
•Stock Boot + Stock Recovery + Stock System:
•Stock Boot + CWR 6.0.1.2 + No Bloat System:
My WiFi still turns on, searches for a while, finds nothing and turns back off! I have no idea what to do next. Any ideas?

When you flashed via ODIN did it show it was flashing the boot area? In the status window it should tell you which images are being flashed to the device. Can you re-try the stock boot/kernel ODIN image and confirm it did flash the boot image?
That is the only thing that booted. As soon as I selected the image I got a "MD5 checksum failed" prompt. The "start" button changed to the same message but it let me click it and it loads the boot.img. Does that help at all?

Hi all,
I've just bought a new SII Skyrocket to replace my Motorola Bravo -- the bravo was terrible purchase and though the Skyrocket is a two year-old phone I consider this a big step up.
I bought the phone on eBay and it was advertised as new. It arrived in its original packaging with the security seal intact, so I have no reason to doubt this. The phone is running ICS (4.0.4 build IMM76D.UFCLF6).
The phone arrived yesterday and I really like it, but I've encountered a weird issue. If I reboot the phone then it is no longer able to make any sound. Any action that requires sound -- incoming calls, outgoing calls, choosing a ringtone, playing music, taking a picture -- causes the phone to freeze for a minute or more and then become very slow. Rebooting again makes no difference. The only solution I've found is to reboot into recovery and factory reset, though this may only work after several tries.
- Has anyone heard of this issue before?
- Is it likely to be fixed by upgrading to Jelly Bean (I'll install a custom ROM if I can be sure that the phone is working properly) or is this more likely a hardware issue?
Apologies if this question has been answered before. I've searched the forums here and elsewhere, but I haven't found any mentions of similar issues.
Thanks for your help!
Try flashing a stock UCMC1 ROM and doing a factory reset after your flash finished successfully and Odin rebooted your phone.
3 things you need:
1- skyrocket windows drivers from Samsung website
2-Odin
3-stock ucmc1 tar ball.

You don't need to install a custom rom. Try updating to official jellybean with kies, if that doesn't work then try C64's advice above with either UCMC1 or UXUMA7 (uxuma7 is less bloated).
The issue you're having is odd and I haven't encountered it before..

Thanks for the suggestions, C64 and lingowistico. Upgrading to JB was going to be my next move, but I wanted to know if anybody had seen this behavior first. I don't want to mess with the phone too much in case the seller will take it back (I may be on a loser there). I'll try the official upgrade and let you know.
Custom ROM not necessary -- true, but I've been running CM on my bravo for a couple of years and can't go back to a stock ROM. I'll try the de-bloated version of the official JB release, but I'd like something I can have more control over.
Cheers...

when phone is doing odd things the best way to ts is a complete wipe, formatting/removing sdcards then returning to stock w/odin, but you could try the debloated rom 1st just to test it out, if its resolved then its prob not hw related, just make a backup of ur current rom if planning on returning it but since you install an official stock it should also be returnable

Thanks Vincom. I don't have access to a Windows machine at the moment so haven't been able to try the upgrade.
One question -- how is it possible to make a backup of the current ROM without first rooting and installing a custom recovery? I suppose that I could install the custom ROM and create a nandroid backup. Then if I needed to restore I could restore the nandroid and reinstall the stock recovery. Is there an easier way?
Apologies, I just saw that you have information on reinstalling the stock recovery on your Newb Guide.
BTW, I want to say thanks for your work on the Newb Guide. One of the things that sold me on this phone was the support that it has here. Amazing to have all of the information on installing the custom recovery, rooting, etc. all in one place.

I believe I had this kinda issue once before, it was when I flashed CM10 or something. No incoming sound, sound did not work whatsoever, but installed a different kernel solved the issue, or flashing a new different rom.

UPDATE:
So, I managed to upgrade to the official JB 4.1.2 this evening. Had to do it twice.
First time the boot got stuck at the AT&T logo and PC wouldn't detect the device. I followed the directions in another post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34682377&postcount=9 to repeat the upgrade and the same thing happened.
On a whim I decided to try rebooting a few times to see what would happen -- and it worked! Sort of...
I'm repeatedly rebooting the phone and sometimes it will start without problem. However, most of the time it gets stuck when the AT&T logo appears exactly where it should play the start up sound, except it freezes and the sound never plays.
I'm guessing that wiping the data before had nothing to do with fixing the problem and I was simply getting lucky on reboot.
I realize that this is a hard question without having the phone in hand -- but does this sound like a hardware issue?
Thanks again to everyone for their help.
Boot into recovery and factory reset from there. That should clear up the boot loop issue.

Just a quick note to let you know how this was resolved. I returned the phone to the seller who provided a full refund.
Thanks again to those who respondend.:highfive:
Lately, I'm experiencing a lot of problems with my Xperia L. For one, when I turn on Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, the phone just hangs for about five minutes before finally activating them. The same case applies to when I activate a wireless hotspot on my device. When I tap on 'enable wireless tethering', the phone completely hangs. This has really started getting on my nerves! :crying:
Also, when I capture multiple photos from my camera, I'm finding that some images are automatically rotated. I have to manually rotate them, which, of course, is no child's play.
Another issue that I'm facing is that the phone's gotten a bit unresponsive. It doesn't fire up applications like it previously did (not that I have many apps installed too. Just 4).
All this has got me thinking, was the Xperia L a waste of money? No firmware upgrades coupled with tons of bugs!
Should I risk it and go for a custom ROM? I really need some advice, fellow users! Please reply as soon as possible! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

It seems like you are on Stock ROM. If you have not done it already, try do a factory reset i know its not an easy task but it may bring your happy days back. If you are not a big Fan of Sony UI you can try Many KitKat ROMS that are available updated with Latest sources 4.4.4.
Very soon we might have almost Bug Free KitKat Custom ROM's, Its your wish to Flash a Custom ROM. (Losing Warranty)
WIFI + Bluetooth not working even after Kitkat cm11 rom

I Also have this problem with WIFI and Bluetooth. Cant switch em on. I was on 4.2.2 update...
At first WIFI & BT are fine. About 2 weeks ago it starts restarting. When I'm lucky enough to reach inside the Setting and use phone for sometime, I tried to turn on wifi... Phone hangs... then restart.. Sometimes it takes several "auto" restart before i can operate the phone. But after those, everytime I turn on WIFI.. it hang/restart. Also happen w/ bluetooth.
I tried flashing/downgrade to 4.1.2 stock rom w/ flashtool. The restarting stopped/fixed... BUT, there's no way I can turn on wifi. i keeps switched off everytime i tried.
Finally, I installed CM11 kitkat cw. Everything looks new and fine ans smooth.. BUT... still cannot switch on wifi! and bluetooth!! >.<
I dont know what to do. Is this a hardware problem?? or is there a fix/zip i can flash to fix this??
HELP.

15.3.A.1.14 or higher. Always flash the latest firmware if possible.

I resolved the issue! It's going to sound extremely silly, but it worked wonders for me.
Basically, I deleted all downloaded apps that require a 'Full internet access' permission (The one with the WiFi icon), and viola! WiFi and Bluetooth work wonders now. I noticed this problem when I uninstalled Cleaner Master, and WiFi and Bluetooth jumped to life.
This is, however, a major setback. I can now download only a limited number of apps..
But hey, at least WiFi and Bluetooth work, so I've got that going, which is nice...
Any reasons why this may be happening guys?

You should perform a clean install of latest stock ftf. Looks like there's a problem with your kernel too. So flashing will put a new life to your phone. Remember to do clean install of firmware including kernel and wipe data alongwith resetting customizations.
