[Q] Help Stuck on Samsung logo & multi force close

I was getting some force close when trying to read a pm in tapatalk..so I uninstalled tapatalk & xda..then there was an update for titanium,,at that point the phone seemed to hang, so I rebooted the phone and then it would give me multiple force close of just about every app..keyboard force close etc...& some icons at the top of the screen that I have never seen before..ie a circular battery icon..
I was able to boot into rom manager..but not sure what to do next? Don't want to make it any worse..lol
What ROM?

Everything was force closing.. No keyboard.... Really strange!
So at the moment it's fine... But WEIRD!

I'm guessing the permissions got all wacked out.

Thanks.. Just don't understand why.... I don't know if this started with talkapk, it was force closing when I was trying to open a pm.. or if it was titanium or supersu?
kind of freaked me out though...!
A great reason for backups

I'm guessing superuser. Probably needed to fix permissions

Yeah, maybe... It seemed fine at first... Now just updating some 200+ apps Fortunately I had a CWM backup from a couple weeks ago....
But nothing worked on the phone... Thankfully I could get into recovery... Phew

Fixing force close issues
The best thing to do for force closes is to go into ROM Manager, scroll down to where you see "Fix Permissions" and run them. It fixes force close problems all the time for me

Thanks, but the phone was at the point where it was unusable... The only functionality was with the volume & power buttons... Lesson learned... Along with Titanium do a CWM backup weekly... It's amazing how much you can change on your phone, without realising it!

Recovery

Am I correct in assuming that you can only have one recovery program installed at a time? Also does the original native recovery remain on the phone as that is what you'd want with a soft brick?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
That's right. Only one recovery at a time. And it replaces the stock recovery.

So you can get to it, whether it's cwm or twrp etc, with the buttons like during a boot failure?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Yes. You can boot into any recovery that's currently installed using the button combo.

Think i may have bricked my phone HELP!!!

I wanted to het back to a stock kernel so I flashed stock recovery and kernel back to the phone. Then i tryed to push cwm revovery back to it with the one touch root tool for mac. It reboots but no after i push CWM to it but no clockwork mod. I Tryed to intall my synergy.zip from factory recovery doesnt work. I dont know what to do im really scared.

Honestly i think ODIN is windows only You might need to torrent a windows 7 iso and just install it without a key in bootcamp. If your phone is busted it's probably worth all the trouble.
I fixed thanks for everyone's help

Unlocked TW JB SMS features

OK so I was browsing around the sprint forum and I came across this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012583 This is a TW JB SMS with all extra settings unlocked. It gives you the option to disable screen on when you get a notification also to disable call back number and more. This is not my work and all credit goes to Sac23 for this mod I'm just sharing what I found with everyone. I see people asking for these options everyday so I'm sure this will make a lot of people happy. Enjoy guys.
Download and flash in recovery.

In the MMS settings...I noticed grayed-out server settings and a phone number that started with 1903 (from memory). Not sure if those are VZW settings or Sprint.

If wifi is on it doesn't switch to data to send pic. That's how this phone works when sending pics. Sorry for not being clear. I installed turned off screen on then replaced with stock. Screen no longer comes on and everything works perfect

So...just to be clear...you installed the sprint version...disabled screen on...reinstalled original Verizon version and screen stays off?
I'm assuming you reinstalled by copy and paste?

After installing this and un checking screen on, I deleted it with root explorer, copy paste stock, set permissions reboot to recovery wipe caches and reboot. Stock then works perfectly with screen staying off when message received notification lights still working. All good

Anyone get split view in landscape working on this? I've just kept this app, everything works. Wondering if the split screen is like the one on the note 2?

Did you flash the zip through recovery or push the apk to /system/app set permissions reboot?

Boot manager

Is there a blue folder available for the s3? I'm using the Galaxy mod ROM now and really like it but I'd like to keep checking out new rooms. Is there a convenient way to boot up another rom without having to wipe out what I'm running?

It gets me all the time too! But as of now there is not, there are some in the works from what I hear. So right now the easiest way is to make a backup and flash then just restore when you're ready to go back

Yes unfortunately no Boot Manager yet. Init2winit apps is unable to support the app anymore. The good news is that they are currently trying to find a reputable dev to take it over. Hopefully someone will.

I was really excited when it came out for the droid x. I bought it and really never used it, it just didn't work right. Cool idea but never work for me. I am sure the dx having a locked bootloader really held it back.

Thanks for the feedback. i used safe strap 3 for my motorola razr it allowed you to create a seperate boot partition,boot into recovery and choose the active-one . Is there something similar?

No there isn't, but it you just make a nan of your stock system before flashing it is basically the same thing
