[Q] Screen blackout... Elegancia ICS Sense 4 Rom

Hi,
I have quite a weird problem...
I have to pop out the battery to restart the phone nearly every day.
The screen just blacks totally out and the phone will not respond to anything.
The phone is not dead, I know this because I can hear messages and incoming calls but I cannot do anything about it since the screen is all black (turned off).
Experience? Workaround? Advice?

Update: The screen actually wakes up to show me the phone call or the message, but I cannot do anything about it. So it seems rather that some services on the phone is stuck and, as said, only way to get the phone working again is to reboot by taking the battery.

I came across the same problem and I wasn't able to fix it till now.
I did a full-wipe two times and restored only the basic apps.
I have no idea anymore.
"adb reboot" is an alternative solution.

[Q] Htc one x problems

So Ive been having issues with my Htc One X and I decided to send it back to Htc (through warranty) to fix the issues... The following are issues I have encountered with the phone on Jb..
Phone randomly reboots after selecting an app
Background Wallpaper would just disappear and turn black
I would select to use an app such as Instagram for example, and it would pop up for a second but then go back to home screen each time
Text messages would come hours late but say received at an earlier time
Keyboard would disappear when texting
Signal would drop to no signal because the phone is "preparing sim" (like when it first comes on) (which is randomly)
Htc Sense would randomly close along with process com.android..etc. (see picture for screenshot, notice task bar has also diapered. )
After the pop up notifications of Htc sense or whatever crashing or stopping I would have to press ok like 50 times to get it to stop popping up..or try to hurry up and restart before it comes back up
Can anyone explain what's going on??????? I have sent my phone to Htc multiple (at least more than 5) times to be fixed and before this time it was a refurbished device because they messed up my usb port on my original phone. I do not run a lot of apps and even with some apps uninstalled it still continues to act like this and I would usually have to restart.. I wish I could unlock boot loader and flash new ROM to fix it.. but they always send it with Jelly Bean installed from stock.

That's quite a collection of issues! Since the phone is bone stock, I'd just try a factory reset, then installing a minimum of apps, and see if the issues still occur. Or run the phone in Safe Mode, and see how it behaves. If its still acting up, send it back again.

Could not honestly tell you, maybe it is some setting you have on the phone. Or may be it is a genuine hardware issue that needs to be repair or replaced. If you sent it 5 times, you should be able to get a brand new phone. I know with AT&T, after the third time, they will replace the phone with a comparable phone

[Q] Android L (LRX21O) Crashes/Reboots randomly

Nexus 5 is unlocked/rooted. Did a full factory reset when I installed L.
Will randomly go to phone and it is off/unresponsive off screen (need to hold power button to reboot it)
Have occasionally seen the notification icon flashing with the screen off but also unresponsive otherwise (asked for friend to call, but would not ring)
Have also seen it randomly reboot.
Seems to be happening at least every hour or so...quite maddening now.
Would love any help! thx.

Same Problem..Motherboard Issue
Hey..i was facing the same issues after update..Showed it to Service Center...Service center guy told that Update has screwed my Motherboard..If your are in warranty just take back it to service center guy..

I'm on stock LRX21O, flashed from img, unrooted, third attempt, and the thing is still crashing and freezing all over the place. I'm starting to think LRX21O is a dud, plain and simple.

FINALLy found a fix. Switched over to Franco Kernel -- having NO problems anymore!
Now on Franco Kernel + Cataclysm + greenify -- getting full day batter life with no reboots anymore!
edit: here's the kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/kernel-franco-kernel-r53-t2508284

[Q] Many problems with new s6

So I bought the S6, new, never been opened, sealed etc, let it charge the proceeded to turn it on. Then comes the welcome bit and startup, this is where it went tits up. Apparently everything stopped responding, google maps stopped responding, voice commands stopped responding, etc. Thought nothing of it, skipped through everything, got into home screen and then "Touchwiz has stopped responding". So naturally I though oh dear. Oh, it also started restarting on it's own randomly as well, I tried booting in safe mode, disabling things, that didn't work, sometimes it would even get in a bootloop, loop 3 times and then start.
I tried updating it, didn't work, tried flashing it with "G920FXXU3QOLD_G920FH3G3QOJ1_G920FXXU3QOJB_HOME", problems still persist. It's currently on 5.1.1, it wont update in settings, just starts downloading more than 1.2gb's of downloads then says "Software update has stopped responding".
Tried samsungs live chat, was awful, they didn't present any useful information.
I'm wondering if it's just 5.1.1 being awful, because when I boot to the system recovery menu thing where it has the blue screen with android logo, then has yellow exclamation mark, that doesn't reboot on it's own at all. Never reboots in download mode either. Phone is not rooted, knox hasn't been tripped or anything, so I'm left clueless. What do I do? Bought this phone, what, 4 days ago ish. Came here yesterday. My question is, if I flash it with idk, a 6.0.1 update in odin or something, will that fix the problems?

Hi,
It seems to me that you have a defective device, you can either try reflashing the stock firmware and then factory resetting, I believe that it really is a software issue, but as it's brand new (as you stated), you can return it to the store and get another one.
There are quite a few guides to flashing stock firmware back, hope you can do it .
All the best,

Samsung S8+ Whole screen flashes red and blue with alarm and vibration

have a crazy situation - a number of times in the day at odd times the whole screen flashes red and then blue while vibrating and playing the alarm.
I do not think it is a virus and cannot figure out with what app this is associated with. I cannot associate it with any app directly. There is no message just suddenly starts flashing until I tap on screen or after about twenty seconds turns off

Yours is a great idea but these settings are disabled on the phone. Thank you for the suggestion however

Im having this same problem. Did you ever fivure out the issue?

After hard reset
Did a hard reset worked for about a month and in the last two days started again I have tried to Google and see if others have the same issue and there is nothing on the www. Crazy and absolutely have no idea what is causing it

Moto 360??
I am having the same issue. I also have a Moto 360 watch. I think there might a connection when the watch isn't in range the phone starts this panic behavior of red and blue. I still haven't found a solution....

What Fw are you on ? And do you have exynos or SD variant ?
I have a G950F and a moto 360 too and no issues so far ?

Same thing
This just started happening to me too. My only change recently was: I install an android wear watch hauwei 2 last week. I enabled developer mode to try and trace the cause.

I am doing the same with the Debugger (now), good idea. But I must admit, I don't know how to use the option on the Android to necessarily trace to a specific app.
I do know when I turn Bluetooth off the issue seems to go away.

Has anyone tried changing the network the device is trying to connect to? Let's say you have a GSM network, try setting it to GSM only. Vice versa for CDMA.

Same issue w/ s7 and note 8
I recently began having the same issue with my Galaxy s7 a d now with my note 8. The only connection is I've had my watch(fossil Q founder) connected to both. If I get out of range or disconnect from the phone via airplane mode etc. is when the phone loses it's mind. I think it's a feature in the event you might have misplaced your phone the watch is helping it be found(if that makes sense). I haven't found a way to disable this.

I had this Blue to Red flashing screen on my Galaxy S7. I could only operate my phone on safe mode, the virus or whatever this was drew the battery down while I was offloading photos and syncing the phone to the Samsung cloud. Then I only had approx 2% battery when I went to do the hard reset and before I could make it happen the phone lost power and I believe this virus prevented it from charging back up, essentially my cell died in 2 days from whatever this was. luckily AT&T is providing me a replacement but what an awful virus and what's to say when I resync the phone with Samsung it doesn't happen again?

Ok now, really?! You guys don't wanna tell me that since 2017 you guys are tracing this totally insane Homecomming ring plus red and blue screen flashes. So basically you living with this insanity since it's inception, and nobody knows what it is? I'm about ready to throw my phone into the garbage.

Any OS that is pre-Pie can be infected with rootkits that require a firmware flash to eradicate. A factory reset won't work.
Otherwise it sounds like you are introducing an app that is doing this after the factory reset.
If it doesn't do it in Safe mode... it's an app you added.
