I cant get cm10 to work right, Please help

The 07 version works fine but the new one i am having a problem and cant figure it out.I have cleared and reset everything and did a clean install. every things fine until i lock the phone or screen timeout. then the bottom lights dont come back on. i have done the factory reset again and cleared davlik and still not helping. If i send a email it will activate the notification lights and it will work untill screen locked again. i have toggled them on and off as well. Anyone else have this problem and have a solution for me?

Bln works, but is buggy. If this is your only problem, be happy
At some point something will click and it'll start to work right. I'm trying to stabilize that driver but it may be a while.

[Q] NFC Options are Disabled?

Hi everyone...
I was at the gas station last night, and thought I'd try using NFC/Google Wallet to try paying for something for the first time.
I went in to turn on NFC, and found that the option is completely grayed out. (The button is set to "on", but its grayed out, and cannot be turned off)
Android Beam is disabled/grayed out.
S Beam is enabled, but I can't seem to change it.
Tap and Pay is disabled, and says, "NFC is turned off".
Something is clearly FUBAR'd here.
I've tried rebooting a couple times.
I've tried pulling the battery (yes, its the original OEM battery).
I've tried wiping data for NFC.
I tried re-installing the stock ROM, and it didn't fix anything.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks..

Just a follow up here... I've also tried a complete wipe of the device... still no go.

Still running ktoonsez kernel ?

Yes.
And when I did a complete wipe and re-install, I was able to verify that its happening with the stock kernel also, so I don't believe it to be a kernel issue.

I was able to try a different battery today... from someone else with an S5, and the same problem exists.
My next step is to try unrooting and going back to complete stock... obviously I'd like to avoid this if at all possible.
Any other suggestions? Anyone?

Well, I did it today.. unrooted, went back to full stock everything... and I still cant change the NFC setting on my S5.
If anyone has any other suggestions, I'm more than open to anything at this point...

Do you have insurance ? I would think about taking it to a Sprint store and see what they say. You might have a hardware problem

No, but I may get it for this. What a bummer.

Could someone be so kind as to post a copy of their /data/data/com.android.nfc/shared_prefs/SamsungNfcPrefs.xml file for me?
Also, can you tell me if you have an nxpdevicehost.xml file in that same directory?
Thanks!

Here are the latest details. I feel like I'm so close, yet so far.
Background:
When I would reboot my S5, the NFC setting would be set to "On", but disabled and wouldn't let me change it. On top of that, my phone would never go into Deep Sleep. After exhaustive research, it appears that the phone was constantly trying to enable NFC, which prevented it from hitting Deep Sleep.
I've dug thru a lot of the AOSP code, and discovered the following.
- If I change the nfc_on tag from true to false in my NfcServicePrefs.xml, and add a line setting first_boot = false, NFC does not try to turn on when I reboot the next time (This solves my deep sleep problem).
- If I try to manually turn NFC on after that, it gets stuck the same as before I made any changes to the XML file.
- Based on this code, it looks like there is a java call to "mDeviceHost.initialize()". I'm guessing this is where I'm getting borked.
- The initalize function, found here, seems to want a file called NxpDeviceHost.XML. I cannot find this file anyplace on my S5.
My assumption here is that Samsung forked this process and made their own internal changes. I'm looking at AOSP code, but that doesn't help if Samsung changed things on their end.
Can ANYONE help me debug things from here? I'm a developer by trade, but have never worked in JAVA (although I've figured out how to read enough of it to become dangerous). I dont need a lot of hand-holding... just a push in the right direction here.
Thanks!

I have the same issue on an LG-e970. The NFC option is checked and grayed out, I can't change it. It's always been this way since I got the phone. The new problem in the past 48 hours is some OTA update is causing Nfc Service to prevent the phone from sleeping, but I have no idea what it is. I thought maybe Google Wallet so I uninstalled it, but the problem remains. It happened well after the Android 4.4.4 Cm11-M8 update for this phone. I filed a bug at code google dot com bug ID 74037, which this silly forum won't let me post because I'm too new and it doesn't understand the difference between a google code URL and spam.

Weird. So I powered off the phone, let it charge to 100%, booted in safe mode, Settings > Storage > Cache and reset it, rebooted in normal mode, and let the phone sit unused for 1 hour. The problem with Nfc Service is not occurring, the phone is sleeping most of the time now. When I go to Settings > More > NFC is unchecked, not grayed out. Inexplicable, because I've had no way to uncheck it.
So I just checked it, and it immediately grays out so I can't uncheck it again. I'm leaving the phone unused for another hour and see where things are at.

Nfc Service is once again the top battery consumer and won't let the system sleep. The bugreport for the state with the problem (in contrast to the report for the state without the problem):
many instances of:
07-24 11:23:16.870 1064 8319 E NFCJNI : emergency_recovery: NFC stack dead-locked
and also
Wake lock 1027 NfcService:mRoutingWakeLock: 1h 6m 26s 537ms (0 times) realtime
Wake lock NfcService:mRoutingWakeLock: 1h 6m 26s 537ms partial (0 times) realtime
Wake Locks: size=1
PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK 'NfcService:mRoutingWakeLock' (uid=1027, pid=1064, ws=null)
I've booted recovery, formatted /cache and erased Dalvik cache, see where that goes... obviously if I can figure out how to disable the NFC option again, that solves the no sleep problem.

had same issue but with note 3. It was kernel issue so reverted to the previous kernel i was on and its o

Sorry to bring this thread back to life, but I'm having the same issue and would like to know which solution worked out for you. Thanks.

Problem after changing battery

Hello,
I've managed to replace my S6's battery to a GSM Service with a brand new (original) one and after I charged my phone (while on) to 100% and then restart it, my battery was up to ~80-81%.
I went to the service and replace it again (with a new one, of course), but the same problem.
I managed to change my ROM with a Custom Rom, but again, the same problem.
I don't understant why this is happening. Can somebody help me with this issue?
Thankx guys!
Paul

charge your phone from 10% to 100%,then go to dialer and input *#0228#
secret menu will appear and just click run,after that the screen will reboot again in that menu and will calibrate your battery,

Hey! Thank you, I knew this trick, but the secret menu doesn't appear anymore after instaling the latest version of "The global elite rom"...
The calibrating battery apps found on Google Play work?

Question Delayed notification on text messages

Sometimes I don't get a notification of an incoming text message until several minutes after it was sent. I'm totally stock and I have disabled adaptive battery and I gave unrestricted battery usage to the messages app. Anyone else having this problem or know how to fix it?

Do u maybe have doze/aggressive doze options in any apps u have? Maybe wifi/mobile connection disabled at screen off/lock option somewhere? Anything like that in general? Provider/connectivity issues recently? Poor signal issues at all? R u rooted running stock or non-rooted? Is it just recently? Installed any 'new' appz at all? Lotsa possibilities...gotta go thru and try n tick 'em off one at a time...a bit of detective work should give u a suspect...hopefully.

As I said, the phone is totally stock. The wifi and mobile is on. I think the signal strength is fine and I don't think it is a provider issue. I don't understand what you mean about the doze option in apps. I've never heard of that - what kind of app would have those options? I think it has happened since I've had the phone, but it is hard to say since it only happens sometimes and it took me a while to notice it as a pattern. I don't get a lot of texts typically and if I get a text, I don't always notice that it has been delayed. I think that it might happen most with the first text I get in a day.

'Doze' is a low power mode that android goes into after a few hrs. with no activity or screen wakeup. But if ur not rooted then I think it requires ADB to allow perms...if u did, you'd know it...lol
If there's no 'suspect' apps installed then the next step of uninstalling 1 app at a time until there no more occurrences may not be feasible. Only other option I can think of sux...a factory reset with wipe then add ur apps one at a time etc...

Thanks. I can't think of why an app would be able to affect this problem and I don't want to go through that amount of work, so I'm going to live with it and wait and see.

I'm having this issue as well. I'm in Mexico on a Mexican sim. Texts taking a long time to come through

Question Miui Optimization bug

So I turned off Miui Optimization because I wanted the always on display to always been on (apparently if you disabled Miui Optimization, it wouldn't turn off after 10 seconds). It worked, but I lost some things like the haptic vibration or the Gaussian blur of the interface. I need help, I enabled Miui Optimization again but it didn't fix it (I restarted my cellphone more than 5 times). I don't know what to do and I'm not able to find a solution.

Y completely did. Trust me, I did everything; I also check for similar bugs on YouTube and it didn't work. Suddenly I just woke up and it started working again... I'm not understanding, but we'll. Anyways, thanks!

Did you able to find the solution for this issue? I got this issue two times and everytime I had to reset. Funny thing is that there was also a dark mode glitch as well. Although, everything gets normal while charging the phone... Seriously, MIUI is annoying as hell.

Yeah, I was able to find a solution for it. I suffered the same thing you have, phone was back to normal when I plugged the cable to charge it. I installed an app called "Hidden Settings (if you search it on the play store as "Hidden Settings Miui" it'll appear on there). Open the app and go to "hidden" at the bottom of the interface, then search for the battery options and its gonna be one of those 4 options.
In my case, the problem was with the second battery option. It was enabled and I had to disable it, then it started working like nothing happened.
I hope you can fix it, if you need help just answer this saying it.

Thank you so much for replying and your help buddy. I had to reset everytime because of that bug and eventually decided not to turn off MIUI optimizations. BTW Did it work while MIUI optimization was off?

tbh I didn't try it with the Miui optimization off, but I think that if you disable the battery optimizations I told you before; it should work fine even with Miui optimization turned off. You can try it, you do know how to fix those "bugs" if they happen again so you'll not lose anything.
