[Q] Sidekick 4g Crashing Issue? - T-Mobile Sidekick 4G

I loved sidekick 4g but hated how it always randomly crashed on me (it would vibrate, pause, then vibrate 3 more times before rebooting). I thought installing glorious overdose might fix the problem but it still seems to be acting up. Can anyone with sk4g relate to this problem?

Could you clarify on what you were doing when it freezes up?

It actually ranges. Playing games or multi-tasking would cause the phone to crash, but what's unacceptable is that I could exit out of my app drawer or go into a texting application and my phone would reboot on me. I heard it is very common for the sk4g to do this due to a bug, but I haven't heard it talked much about here on xda.

I've had these problems too, and have tried to figure out a root cause through trying varied roms and removing different apps. I'm beginning to believe I just have a bad device...
...I have noticed that it has lessened since I gave up and went back to the original software w/ last update. I've also stopped using apps that poll GPS... (playing foursquare or checking in w/ latitude and geo-tagging photos would frequently give the vibes and lock the phone)
I still have the issue on occasion during varying gmail operations...
...I do, however, have more frequent random reboots.

Try loading a fairly non-touchwiz rom like GingerClone.

I'm running glorious overdose now, but noticed that it still occurs sometimes. Not quite sure if its more or less frequent but it seems unchanged as of now.

KJ2 still has the problem where the launcher gets thrown out of memory, so if you are doing some heavy task and then switch back to the homescreen it has to reload the entire launcher at the same time.
Seems to happen less on GingerClone than KJ2 stock or KJ2 based roms, otherwise you'd have to run the v6 supercharger script.

Seems pretty solid so far on KJ2 with v6 supercharger set

This happens to both me and my wife. It started with the July 2011 update. The most recent update made it happen less, but here's when it happens:
1. browser scrolling
2. startup of maps
3. typing address in maps
4. sms conversations list open
I'd like a recommendation of a rom to run that supports the task-list ("Jump") key. That's really useful. I ran CM6 on my Android G1 and it was pretty good, but that was after the G1 was discontinued. Tmobile is *still* advertising the SK4G in the newspaper, and it still crashes doing its own stuff.

Help Please

I have a strange problem with my Hero that is hard to describe. Even before I rooted my phone I had this problem which leads me to believe it could possibly be a hardware malfunction. Anyways..
The problem is that over time after a complete wipe and flash of a custom rom (I've tried several) that my phones slowly deteriorates. It will be running fast and great for a week or two and then its starts to slow down to the point where it is completely unusable and I am forced to wipe and flash again. While its acting this way I have tried killings tasks, emptying cache, hard resets... every simple solution I can think of....
The other odd thing is that I use my phone very lightly. I only install 4-6 apps and those are the basics like pandora and such...
And I'd like to add that maybe I'm wrong about my phone acted this way when I had 1.6 official on it. It's been awhile.... so maybe I corrupted something when I rooted my phone for the first time?
Really I wish you could see the way my phone acts... its ridiculous . I would take a youtube video of it if I wasnt too lazy too. Crazy stuff like it taking a whole 30 seconds to a minute for a unlock pattern to finally go through, Or how when I try and type a phone number its like 3 or 4 presses "behind" as I type ( and im not typing quickly) or when I try to scroll through my contact list it just gets stuck and then finally it "catches up" and stutters all the way down to the bottom because of how many swipes I attempted.....
...help
have you tried.....?
Have you tried to run an RUU of eith 1.6 or 2.1? if you runn an RUU it will clear out any lerking "software" issues and then just re-root and try that out then try a custom rom after that.
Try Autokiller from the market. Once you install it, run it. Set the autokiller settings to something like Optimum or Strict (if that doesn't work for you, try Aggressive).
This will adjust the low memory killer settings to a more aggressive number. This, hopefully, will help.

I agree. I use auto killer on aggressive with CM6 and it runs great forever
My phone does the exact same thing!
I first really noticed it when I flashed the official sprint 2.1 update. I think it has something to do with the buildup of cache on the phone.
I have been running CM6 for a little over a month and have recently noticed it getting slightly hung up at times, but nothing compared to how it was with the official 2.1 update. Also, remember that CM6 does not have Sense, which can really slow down the phone.
I also I agree with you that it seemed like my phone did not do this on 1.6, but it has been quite sometime since I flashed 2.1.
Does anyone know what really causes this exponential slow down; to the point where the phone is barely useable?
hm... I will try autokiller.....thanks for the advice
as for CM6..... I've tried not using sense UI but to me its my favorite part of my phone... for example the facebook/twitter/flickr integration with my contact list is invaluable.... is there a replacement for this?
is anyone else able to add anything else?

Try Zen-Rom. It has all that you are looking for and is very fast and stable.
Sent from my Zen-Rom Hero!
Auto killer is the way to go. I found Aggressive setting too much for my tastes; if I was on a webpage, then went to the home screen for something else and opened back up the browser, it would have to reload it because it was killed. I set it on optimum, and get no slow down, and can still truly multi task.

Or NFX-Hero. I'm not a Sense guy, but I've experimented with that ROM, and it was the fastest Sense 2.1 IMO.
Just curious but does pandora have a cache file on your sdcard? I had an app that was reading and writting to a cache on my sdcard and it would slow my phone down a lot. When your phone slows try ditching some of your apps and see if maybe one could be responsible for it, if it is there are tons of options different apps that do the same thing.

Is it just me or if Froyo REALLY slow

just about everything is slow especially the market, or it because i came from voodoo
im useing cog with oclf and mine is screaming fast no complaints as of yet,
root and use one click lag fix.. works great for me

unless you reflash with master clear i do not know sorry i am still new to this
If you installed Froyo , voodoo is long gone , as Froyo overwrites kernel , files you see on your SD card are nothing more then left overs you can delete them any time you want.
I can say that compared to stock 2.1 and using stock 2.2, 2.2 has been faster for me on every level. 2.2 is not as fast as any version of cognition I have ever used so it depends on your comparison I guess.

Me too!
I'm in the same boat buddy. I'm running the latest Cognition with the ext2 lagfix from SL4A and it's almost unbearably slow. I know I must have done something wrong or there is some kind of error because it's just painfully slow. Also I have a CPU monitor and for some reason my CPU is almost always above 90%. Another weird thing I noticed is that even after I kill off the extra apps with Advanced Task Killer, they seem to open back up almost immediately. For example if I kill 12 apps, and then kill again 5 minutes later, there will be at least 7 or 8 apps running again without me opening any. I'm excited to have Froyo, Flash is rad, but I'm hoping DG comes out with a new Cognition soon because I know something is wrong with my set up right now.
At first, I have restored all my apps with Titanium (apps only), and the phone was so slow as to be unusable. Without those apps, it's fast enough. Obviously, many of those aren't fully compatible with Froyo. Will have to reinstall the apps one-by-one, and see what happens with each one. PITA, but at least the things will be more stable that way.

so its the apps huh... and we all thought froyo was going to be awesome
Can't be the apps... I installed the apps one by one after flashing cognition 2.2 and it is really slow. It was painfully slow at first, but after some use it seems that the phone "got used" to froyo or something the lag isn't THAT bad.
Maybe there's a pattern between the phones that lag and the ones that don't.
For example, mine has the 3 button combo disabled and yours?
I absolutely love FROYO I previously had an iphone 3g and jumped over to the captivate with 2.1. I wasn't really impressed with android at all until this 2.2 update. I am currently running 2.2 with the one click lag fix, also I used the alter minfree settings within the one click lag fix which sets a limit on the amount of memory the phone can use at one time, I set mine to strict seems to work well. My phone is faster than its ever been and i have used all of the various roms prior to Froyo. Try getting rid of the task killer and just use the alter minfree settings within the one click app.
Battery life seems much improved as well
You are running a leaked ROM with a bunch of weird crap in it. Kallsyms shows a whole bunch of tuner functions that I'm pretty sure we don't have and some other stuff that may be garbage or a product of the newer kernel source, I'm not sure.
This is probably just a quicky test port of the I9000 ROM so I wouldn't worry about speed (or stability) yet.
Sherpa
I have a Captivate without the 3 button issues, and it's really fast on 2.2 Cog with lagfix applied. All my apps installed without issue using TiBu. I even had the JPK euro rom installed on it with our JI6 kernel, and that worked fine too, but I couldn't drop the bloatware.

Im pretty sure that people have already said not to restore your backups from Titanium. It has been reported to cause alot of issues. At least dont restore core system components.
No speed issues with mine.
My steps:
Re-flashed to JF6 first.
Completely wiped my internal SD card
Installed COG 2.2
Ran the LagFix from SL4A
Reinstalled TiBU and apps
Reconfigured settings/sounds/etc.
Does the email app work well for everyone? For me, it is barely usable, it always hangs and seems to slow everything down. I had to remove my exchange account because just having it there made the phone constantly lock up and freeze, and now even my yahoo takes forever to simply open the inbox.
I'm running 2.2 without Cog or any lag fix and it's incredibly slow and has horrible battery life. I'm going to try to recalibrate the battery and see if that will make it more accurate. More than likely it wont change anything.
I'm just holding out for a stable/near-final Cognition 2.2. I know it has the potential to be very zippy.

Root and do the one click lag fix. Exchange email is plenty snappy afterwords. I still don't have calendar updates, but at least I can use the email app.

Mine was the same way. It didn't even function most of the time (emails wouldn't load)
I'm running the OCLF now and I hope it makes a difference.

[Q] Random issues.

I didn't think this would be a development thread so i'm starting it here. This is just some of the random issues I'm having.. and was wondering if anyone else was having these or any other issues.
The unknown notification on lockscreen is apparently for other people too.. and i've noticed it's dealing with the stock messaging app. Has anyone figured out how to turn off the counter on the stock launcher for the stock messaging app if you're using a different app like Handcent?
Random lockups. My phone will not come out of sleep.. or i won't be able to unlock it. nothing will be on the screen and i have to pull the battery in order to do anything.
random FC of an app.. or just not even notified of the FC just get this vibrate then double vibrate and everything crashes back to the home screen. First did it when i started setting up the device. and done it a few times since. I've also had one time that was continuous of "vibrate...double vibrate" over and over and over and over.. you get the picture.. and i had to pull the battery.
Is anyone else having these issues or anything similar? Or should I run back to the store and exchange this sucker?

No problems here at the moment, had it about a week and havent seen any of the problems you are mentioning. But this is just for me.
I get this hard crash (vibrate... double vibrate... soft reboot) at random times. It seems to be when I'm running several apps at once. For example, driving to work,I use (Google) Navigation and Doggcatcher for playing podcasts, while GPS and Bluetooth are both enabled.
These apps have been rock solid for me with the 5 other Android phones I've had. Besides, the crashes happen with other combinations of apps. Come to think of it, audio playback is usually (always?) involved, be it with Xiia or the stupid built-in music app.

that's what i've been noticing. but sometimes i'm not even running many apps. i haven't put much on the phone since i've been having these issues, but these apps work perfectly even on my G1. i think i'm just having odd issues with my phone pretty sure its getting exchanged on monday.
I hav the odd vibrating too...Not sure if I should return the phone or not.

i think the "odd vibrating" where its a single vibration.. then 2 quick vibrations.. is a sign of an FC.. not 100% sure.. but thats what i see going on when it happens to me. I've also noticed when i'm outside and thinks i'm selecting things or moving the trackball thing. always to the right.. i think my phone is faulty..

Dang ok, well I may have to unroot mine if possible, and take it back, haha. So I'll be watching for a response to your question in the other thread.
Edit: I fixed my notifications..... somehow my notification volume had been turned all the way down, so I wasn't getting any sounds for texts, emails, etc. Not sure how it got turned down, but sometimes I guess settings can get jarred by various things we do to our phones.

HELP. Keyboard won't type.

I have the Infused ROM 1.5.3, and every so often I'll go to type something, and no letters will show up in the text box! The keyboard thinks it's typing, and even the predictions show up sometimes. However, no text is ever typed into the text box. Sometimes restarting my launcher fixes it, but lately I've had to resort to restarting the phone. So frustrating. This happened on Infused 1.5.0 too, but it seemed to go away. Now all the sudden after upgrading to 1.5.3 it's happening a lot. Any suggestions? Does anyone else have this problem?

this might sound weird but i swear the only problems i have with my phone are when im connected to our microcell. texts failing, keyboard not working, widgets not responding, calls not calling until 7 minutes after i hit "call."
Not sure what causes it or what to do to fix it but I have had the same problem on Refuse 1.6 and 1.7 mainly when using Andchat (irc client) have encountered it less in yaaic but have never experienced it in other areas of typing (messaging, browsers and such)
Sorry not of help but its not just u.
I've had the same problem, with no ROM on my phone at all, rooted stock. However when it happens to me i can just hit back until im at the home screen and then open the text message app up again. It always works when i do this. What keyboard are u using? ive got the "Android 2.3 Keyboard."
i have that keyboard, too. and the samsung and swiftkey. none of them work. what's even more bizarre is that it seems as though when i'm connected to wifi AND the microcell, i can't send texts or make calls and that's when my phone freaks out and the keyboards don't work. i turned off my wifi today and my texts finally sent and i haven't had an issue since.
Yeah had the same problem. All I did was just closed my text and reopened it. Kept doing it until it worked again.

Same problem
I've had the same problem since I got my phone, I've been searching for almost two years on how to fix this problem, usually people don't believe me when I post on this. It seems to get worse the longer I use it and eventually it gets so bad I have to reflash my phone. I'm pretty sure its an app that I use, which would explain why I don't see it at first as I don't backup my apps, just redownload them when I need them. Is there an easy way to get a list of apps from your phone that we could post and cross reference? It doesn't matter which keyboard I'm using. It seems to happen mostly with the default SMS messanger, though it might just be that I use it the most and thats when I notice it, it does happen occasionally with other text fields.
Just as described, the keyboard won't type when I initially open it. The keyboard seems to be working, predictive text works, but nothing appears in the text field. If I wait, type on the keyboard a lot (maybe thats just part of waiting) back out of the keyboard repeatedly or restart the app it seems to fix it temporarily. It doesn't seem to matter which apps are running when it happens.
Any ideas people?
I was constantly having this issue on the GB ROMs I used. In both revenant and infused it would happen. I could recreate it by letting my phone lock while the keyboard was open. It always happened to me in stock messaging and Google Voice because I would pause trying to think of what to type. It became so annoying having to kill the app responsible or sometimes restart my phone that I decided to switch back to JB. I'm on the unofficial CM 10.1 now and haven't had one issue with the stock keyboard or Google Keyboard.
I never did try another keyboard or messaging app. You could try forcing your phone to stay awake longer if you notice the same thing I did. If it's just happening randomly then I'm afraid I don't know what to tell you besides that the jelly beans are delicious; you should give into peer pressure and try one.

I have had this issue with my Infuse also, running CM 10.1 Cyber sgs-IV style ROM. It isn't as bad as some of y'all though, it seems to just hang for a few seconds while I'm typing, then the words will catch up. Only seems to happen when I have between 200-500 messages in a thread, so I was thinking it was a memory issue.. but I'm no developer.

[Q] What's wrong with ARHD?

Has anybody tried out ARHD and decided it wasn't for them because something wasn't functioning properly (camera, camcorder, maps, MMS, GPS, etc.)? This is my experience every time I try out a new ROM, and I have returned to stock again and again.
Getting curious about ARHD (particularly because it's so popular), but thought I'd save myself the trouble if other people have had this experience.
Is it as reliable for a daily driver as stock?
It's based on stock, so yes. I found no errors so far.

The only bugs I've found are the ones that are present in the Stock release i.e. the Browser not opening links properly and the Exchange sync time not staying put.
Hardware wise everything worked, I had a the issue with WiFi not staying off but that occurs with Stock as well and there's a fix for it now that seems to sort it.
Nothing so bad that i have gone back to stock
I have a few problems with the messaging app:
If someone sends me a phonenumber in a text, and i click it, it opens the phone app and should automatically enter the number so i can call it, but the it just opens the app without the number.
The messaging app sometimes opens very slowly (10-15 seconds after the icon is clicked)
Even with the right settings from my phone network provider, MMS is unable to download pictures.
Other problems:
Sometimes the phone is slow after it comes out of sleep (lockscreen in nonresponsive or lagging)
Very very slow boot of camera app (Not really sure if this was a problem in the stock version..
All of this is something i have chosen to live with because i love the rest of the ROM.. Im just hoping this is fixed in later releases

Yikes! Yeah I'm not interested if MMS doesn't work. Have other people experienced this?
I'm giving ARHD an extensive try now that we are running ICS. can't say I have come across that issue with the MMS. In fact, the only issue I have had is with WiFi not staying off. At first I thought it was an issue with ARHD, but learned that we have the same problem stock. I'm loving the ROM. I would love to ditch Sense though!

MMS worked fine for me. Maybe SecherFault should check their APN's (if they haven't already) as that's usually the cause of MMS not working.
Iv'e been using ARHD for a while. Pretty solid and fast. One thing I've realized is that my call volume. Whenever I'm in a call, the volume sounds crackly, like the gain is too high. I turn the volume almost all the way down. It's not my phone because I've used other ROMs and haven't had the same problem. Anyone know a fix?
