Does this version of Fission resolve the incoming call screen's "Answer/Ignore Call" slider issue?

Come on...it's right under Progess
"Back to SDK Dialer. Old one was causing problems and did not keep call log."

So far install and settings are all flawless as far as I can tell. Quality job!

Sound > Volume bug is fixed
Lock Timer bug is fixed
Lock button background on both password and pin is fixed
The virtual keyboard still doesnt vibrate when vibrate is checked.
Also noticed a lot of the options that were in Call Settings are now no longer there.
I'm guessing this is due to the dialer being changed out?
Other than that, so far so good!

Is it necessary to wipe data & cache, then factory reset again even if already on fission?
Would just rather not....
Keep up the good work boys!
Also you might want to re-mention about not using themes.

my gps will not work. Weather and toggle widgets, weatherbug elite , and others will not find me. Tried a reboot didn't work. Came from the beta just flashed this this morning. Followed all directions wiped twice and the factory reset anyone else having this issue or do I need to reflash.
Ps I noticed swype works in this build great work guys

Check the gps toggle again. I've had gps work with three different apps.

GPS is working fine. It's coarse location (wireless networks) that's not working for me. If I turn off GPS, I can't get a location.

To do step 15 (Perform a Factory Reset through Android - Settings > Privacy > Factory Data Reset. Wiping Cache and Data from recovery is not enough.)
Am I suppose to reboot the system prior to this step?

It isn't possible unless you boot first, is what I figured.

"Do not perform any type of restore using any backup programs, yes this includes Titanium Pro and others!"
So this essentially renders Titanium Pro useless then? I can't restore any apps at any time from my sd card?
I followed every step precisely, including the backup and all of the cache/data clearing and android factory reset, and so far none of my market downloads have initiated. I'll get back to you on it if they do.
Not trying to *****, but I can't really give much feedback until I can see how well everything runs with my setup.

By default you'll be in USB mass storage mode if plugged in. If this is the case the market won't download. (Found this out the hard way.)
Fixed it by going to Charge-Only.

Id say u can backup/restore any market/downloaded non-system apps with titanium. Just don't restore items such as calender/email/sms/settings etc. most of these things are backed up and restored to your google account anyhow.

It would seem contact ringtones do not work

The market download on fresh boot takes awhile.. anywhere from 15min+ you can speed the process up by manual cancels and manual downloads.

Go to settings-applications-all applications-picasa
Clear out the cache and defaults. Wait about 2 mins then open up the gallery. This may take some time because you just cleared your cache.

Hi there, thank you for the reply. I've followed your instructions but its saying cache is 0.00b and does not allow me to clear cache (the icon is not lit) and also the "clear defaults" icon is not lit the only options i'm given on that page are "clear data or move to sd card"

You can clear the data as well if that is lit and you are able to clear it. It just 'resets' the app. So bottom line it's ok to clear the data if you can. And if that doesn't work you can just factory reset the phone. But I don't think it's worth doing unless you can restore your apps and settings from a backup. And if you decide you do not want to do a factory reset (I don't blame you if you do not lol), then try alternative apps like gallery3d and picasa tool which are normally found in the market. Not sure if they show up on the non-us market, but you can search for the apk's here.

I think i'm just gona except the new phone the shop are offering me!! at least if i see the problem again on the new phone i'll have a fix but i just think my phone is a bit buggy....few other issues with screen non response too. thanks again for your help.

system insability sensation XE

Hi!
i've got a stock XE (not root, no custom recovery, no CFW) with android 4.0.3 and the phone reboots everytime i go back to home with the home button ;(
any suggestions?
thanks

This is some common steps to see if you can fix it.
First if you have a lot of text messages delete them.
Second if you have a lot of calls in your call history delete your call history.
Third download App Cache Cleaner from the Play Store and use it to delete all the app cache on your device.
The above steps are to free up space on your device to gain resources. You can also uninstall any apps that you just do not use are need to free up space. Without having the proper amount of resources available on a device it can start to perform oddly.
Give the device some time after doing these steps to see if they elimanate the problem. If they do not thengo to System/Privacy and make sure you have a check beside "Backup my settings" and the go to Settings/Storage and scroll to the bottom and select "Factory data reset" bit make sure you remember your gmail account and password cause you will need it to re sync your contacts and settings after the reset.

Possibly os bug or storage failure?

I bought this phone from my friend a week ago. He has been using it for 1 and half year, and he said has no problem with this phone.
Recently I found out there is a bug (maybe) that annoys me everyday.
The gallery is often acting up, not showing the images that I just downloaded. Or, when I save image from VSCO, it is not showing in the gallery. When that happen usually I have to restart the phone to make them show in the gallery.
Ive tried to clear cache the gallery but not working. A restart is a must.
Other gallery/storage related problem that I experienced also causing Whatsap and Instagram. Whatsapp showing blank gallery when I want to share photo. And Instsgram also showing blank preview when I already choose the photo. Sometimes the Instagram is just hang.
Oxygen OS 10.3.1
I hope it's software bug, not hardware problem.
Can anyone help me to clear out this problem?
Thanks in advance!

Doesn't seem to be a software problem. Did you do a factory reset after you got the phone?
Edit: Doesn't seem to be a hardware problem. Ma bad

@MysteryE: before factory reset, clear storage of com.android.providers.media. Then reboot.

And how do I do that?

@MysteryE: system settings >apps >show all apps >show also system apps (context menu right above)
search the app in the list and clear its cache and data.

Not found.
There is no "com.android.provider.media"
The nearest match is "com.android.provider.partnerbookmarks"
If I search for "media", the result only one: "Media Storage"

@MysteryE: media storage is fine. I named the AOSP one.

Alright will clear cache and storage and then factory reset. Hope it will clear out my problem *fingercrossed*
Thanks!

@MysteryE: sorry, I said it vaguely. FactoryReset only, when clearing cache&data of the app doesn't work.

Question S21+ snapdragon issue

Hey
I am have problem with my s21+ g996u1..after frimware update i noticed that there is some app that trying to open randomly in background but then it close immediately..that happens every few minutes
There is a way to downgrade frimware?
There is a way to Recognize that app that trying
To open randomly and close?
Please helps

You can't degrade easily if at all from the factory installed version. Android 11 is a nightmare.
Start like this...
Clear system cache.
Fixed?
Try in safe mode, if this resolves it, it's likely a 3rd party app you loaded.
If it still is doing it in safe mode, it's a factory loaded or system app.
Go to Device Care>Memory, clear the apps.
Back out of it then open it again.
Expand the list and see if you can spot the app doing it as it loads. Disable that suspect app(s) to confirm if it's the culprit. A package disabler app is very nice to have when doing this.
With some persistence you will find it.
~or~
The easy way...
Go to a Samsung Experience center at Best Buy and have a Samsung tech run a diagnostic on it.
They can likely spot it.

On Battery and device care, click on bar graph in top.
Check the app issue, maybe will show your bad app.

Maybe but many apks are lumped together in Android Services. It's likely one of them or a Google app.
Problem apps don't always show under their name... that happens sometimes with the Google system apps.

Same here, S21+. After August update I've had the same issue as you, plus youtube fullscreen exiting every ~5 mins, Google Maps minimizing to window every ~5 mins, massive (2s+) freezes in games. None of this existed prior to this update. Someone messed up big time.
I installed the October update yesterday - to no avail, the issue persists.

If you mean power saving, then no, that's not the case. System cache clear didn't help either but I've just cleared the phone (factory reset), restored data with Smart Switch and looks like this helped. Gonna test it a bit more to confirm the solution.

Good. I avoid doing all firmware updates if my OS is running fast, stable and fulfilling its mission. Security is not an issue as best I can tell unless you do something stupid*.
Updates can do a lot of damage... if you like your OS, let it be.
*always backup critical data redundantly to at least 2 hhds that are physically and electronically isolated from each other and the PC.
You can use a OTG flashstick for quick "dirty" backups, but have the bulk of the backup on data hdds.
I use my SD card as a data drive on my N10+'s, then backup that card. That's why I demand a SD card slot; dual drive setups are the only way to go. The OS, apps, and the temporary download folder are the only things on the internal memory.
In crashes the data drive is usually spared. I can do a full manual restore from that data drive minus a few lost settings.

On my S21 Ultra (SM-G998B/DS) I have the same issue with "background activity" creating screen hick/refresh and switch from landscape full screen video to portrait mode.
Started after November security FW update end October.
Checked all possible settings and removing all 3rd party apps, hick-ups do persist...
'Glad' to read about this issue/bug here too, as I started to doubt myself...
