Air Mirror don't work with my Galaxy S4 - AirDroid

I can't seem to connect via Air Mirror for my Galaxy S4. My phone is stock & rooted. Android 4.4.2, firmware version I9500XXUGNH4. I'm running Xposed if that has anything to do with this.

Same here. AirMirror isn't working either. Galaxy S4, rooted, Android 4.4.4 Goldeneye ROM v45. Really would love it to work!!!

same here. air mirror not working, rooted 4.4.2 ozcan room i9500.
xposed installed.

Yes, I have the same trouble with my Galaxy s3, Rooted and stock android 4.3... airmirror don't stop loading the screen
Connecting to your device...
and nothing else happen, but airdroid got the su rights though

Not working for me either on my Galaxy Note 4, stock, rooted, xposed and SELinux permissive...
Says connecting, airdroid gets SU privilege and runs the vncServer command, but nothing happens.
Would really love this to work!

I'm on a s4 google edition rom 4.4.4
I don't think AirDroid 3 has even asked for SuperSU rights, everytime I open the app it just crashes and says "Unfortunately, AirDroid has stopped." Haven't once gotten it to work. I finally did get the windows client to login but that's useless since the app on my phone crashes everytime I try to open it.

Did you try clearing the AirDroid's app cache/data then trying again? If still crashing, uninstall, reboot, then reinstall. Usually fixes right up for me. Good luck. But, I also still can't get AirMirror to work, but the app opens without any glitches for me.

It doesn't work on my Mac/Yosemite & Samsung Galaxy Note 4 either. I granted SuperSU on the phone and on the Mac it opens the AirMirror window and just hangs at "Connecting to your device..."

Yes I cleared data, uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled, even did it again after you gave the advice to....still crashing right after I open the app. Then I get weird quick vibrations with no error messages.

Yikes sorry friend. Don't know what to tell you. Their blog says may not work with some ROMs, etc. Dunno.

Thank you for your help my friend. I tried looking on their blog (At least the first page) and couldn't find any text about ROM compatability. Could you link me to the post if you have any free time?
It is strange because the previous version of AirDroid was working just fine on the same ROM but the new version 3 doesn't work and I don't see why it shouldn't work...unless they completely rewrote the app which I doubt

That is specifically for AirMirror though so I am going to keep searching for answers. Right now a lot of people can get the app to open but just can't get mirror to work, I can't even get the app open. Is there any way to look at a log of what is going on when I open the app? Like if I used logcat on an IDE would it give me an error report that I could send to the devs? Or is there an error log stored somewhere in the airdroid folder?

There an AirDroid update but still no luck for me when trying AirMirror. C'mon already!!!

airdroid crashes for me too on google edition rom. I guess it's not working on gpe roms

not working for me too; im on S2 with root, xposed and stock rom, so maybe is not just a custom rom thing >.<

The apk from this thread fixed the force close on S4 GPE but airmirror still doesnt work: http://forum.airdroid.com/discussion/14071/airdroid-3-stopped-on-samsung-phone#latest

i have both a Galaxy S4 I9505 and a Sony Ericsson ST26i. Both rooted and airmirror doesnt work on either.
It does say beta so we might have to wait for an upgrade on the PC desktop client

I'm having the same problem, can't wait to try AirMirror on GS4 running Google Play rom, I get the notifications, can access cal logs, sms, etc.. but can't make airmirror to work it gets stuck at connecting to your device.
This is on a Hackintosh running Yosemite.

Adding my two cents
PC Client on Windows 7 works fine for everything but airmirror, which times out trying to connect.

[Q] Anyone get 'Dark Meadow' running?

Just curious. Saw it on the Play store, so downloaded and installed it last night.
But it only takes me to the Phosphor Games logo, then boots me back to home screen.
Tried rebooting my device with no joy. I'm rooted with Framaroot and am on stock Rom and kernal.

Have the AT&T Note 8 LTE, same thing happens. Doesn't look like the game works for us yet.
Works for me. I'm on stock rom from Beanstown with Civato's kernel. I rooted with the toolkit. The game did crash the first few times I ran it. But, it's working fine now and don't ask what I did because I didn't do anything special with the exception of repairing permissions.
Edit: Now how about that. I just tried running the app again and it works flawlessly... and I didn't do a thing. How strange!

Odd, game seems to be a little unstable, took me repeatedly opening the game three times before it finally stopped crashing to homescreen.
Ok, so some of you may have read that I managed to screw up my tab about a week ago and have had to do a factory reset.
Managed to get everything back, except that Phosphor Games have since decided to list Dark Meadow as incompatible for the Note 8.0 on the play store.
So I'm unable to re-download it.
I have the data files saved, but I still need the apk.
Can anyone help me out?

[Q] Apps Crashing Randomly After Xposed but that's just the beginning....

Hello there! i'm making my forum debut while extremely confused as to how to proceed with fixing my Verizon Galaxy S3, running the stock android JB 4.3. So there is no custom ROM.
I realize that this may or may not be similar to a plethora of posts about apps crashing around the time android 4.3 was released but i've upgraded to 4.3 less than a month ago. After diving through countless forums, i couldn't find one that addressed the same problems that my device had. They were all similar, but the solutions posed in those threads did not work with my device. Plus the problems i have are not isolated to one app.
I had just recently upgraded to android 4.3 which had unrooted my previously rooted device. After using Chainfire's method of rooting the SCH-I535, utilizing saferoot, i then installed the Xsposed Framework and that was really where my troubles began. A few days had passed while i was tinkering with a few modules like XBlast tools, XHaloFloatingWindow, Xposed Torch, and Wanam Xposed, and i had a good sense of what mods interfered with other mods and it was only last night when the problem first arose.
Without warning, a game that i play all the time stopped working. Literally in the time span of 6 hours (i was sleeping) something happened and the beginning of my problems started. Every time i would open the app, the app itself would close and i would get a message saying, "Unfortunately, Valkyrie Crusade has stopped." It was only a few hours later did i realize that Pandora, an app i use every day, suddenly stopped working and provided me with the same message. There was no error ID, and clearing the cache/data, reinstalling the apps, did not work. Once it became 4-5 apps that i normally use to get the message, i tried uninstalling the mods as well as the xposed framework but that also did not work. I also tried restoring the game as well as the other apps to a backup i'd made just the week prior with Titanium Backup but i still had the message coming up and the apps still did not work.
As a last resort i did a factory wipe/reset. During the initial set up, i opted to allow google to restore my apps (which i'm not sure i should have done) and after everything was restored, i tried using the apps, and i was met with the familiar message "Unfortunately, (app) has stopped.". I have run out of ideas. While i'm more tech savvy than most, i'm really just a novice when it comes to Android. How should i approach my next step? If anyone needs logs or anything like that, if you would be so kind as to walk me through the steps to get them.
Thank you, thank you, thank you in advance.
EDIT - 2/10/14
I have successfully resolved the issue (or at least, removed it) from happening. I bricked my phone but thankfully i was able to get into download mode.
Follow this guide! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2586319 - just be aware, this will delete all of your apps. backup all your propers and jump in.
This is the only method that i had success with. Other methods i tried are explained above and in the comments. Good luck and i hope everything works out!
If you had the Xposed frameware installed and you also installed Wanam xposed, this will help if you are experiencing apps crashing. I'm no expert, but i'm really glad to have resolved this as quickly as possible. I couldn't have done it without everyone! You guys literally kept my sanity healthy during this whole ordeal.
*NOTE* - The link to the guide above will lead you to a stock rom of android 4.3 for the SCH-I535. I'm not sure about other samsung devices but one user had success with a SCH-I605 (galaxy note 2) in the comments.
*ANOTHER NOTE*- i'm not in any way explicitly saying that the xposed framework and wanam xposed module are the cause of this glitch. Frankly i have no idea. But they seem to have been problems for a few people, myself included. If you want to explore this further, i'd suggest going to each of the respective forums. For me, i'm going to make sure i have a proper Nandroid before i do anything crazy. Lesson learned.
Again, Thank you!
PS- since i'm newer to this forum, i have no idea how to edit the title of this Q....haha if someone could let me know....that would be great.
I am having a similar issue.
Can you check your logcat to see what's going on?
I'm getting a segfault in webview code. I believe my issue is only in apps which provide a webview (e.g. mostly apps which display ads).
There were a flurry of updates to the google stuff (google search, google play services) as well as to a bunch of xposed modules over the past couple days. Sometime after this I noticed my problems starting.

This is actually my first time checking a logcat. What should i be looking for? I'm a little overwhelmed with all the colors and all the text in the one log that i made trying to open the app.
I filtered the log with the name of the app and also "seg" to see what i would get. CrashAnrDetector w/ the letter D inside a blue square that has (SEGV_ACCERR), fault addr #######.
was that what you were talking about? From what i could see there were crash reports with webview code when the app was opening up a website.

Sometimes xposed breaks apps or system ui. Disable it, reboot, and see if your problems persist, it's hard to read a logcat.

I think i'll try that next. I used to have TWRP but had to flash the stock recovery just to upgrade to 4.3. I'll try to get a clean copy of stock OS, flash and just start over from scratch. I'll be sure to let you guys know if i got it to work.
ran into a bump in the road. flashing a stock copy of android 4.0.4 did not work. Browsing through a few forums informed me that i'm unable to downgrade after i've taken the 4.3 upgrade. so next i tried to flash TWRP to boot into recovery mode and flash a rom from there. That didn't work either. I kept getting an authentification error.
As of now i can't get into download mode anymore. I get the yellow triangle saying Verizon detects unauthorized software. I'm able to get into recovery mode but i'm not sure what i can do with stock android recovery....
what can i do from here?
EDIT: I am able to get into download mode. I'm not sure why i wasn't before and now i am...
EDIT2: I have tried flashing the "official" stock android 4.3 but it fails everytime. I have also tried flashing twrp and cwm but i get a red Secure Check Fail: recovery. I suspect the bootloader has been locked. I'll look into ways of getting it unlocked again...

Same here. Disabling all xposed modules didn't work. Disabling xposed entirely didn't work. Doing both and then uninstalling didn't work. My guess is that along the way either xposed or wanam xposed made some sort of change that it can't roll-back when it's disabled/uninstalled.
I resorted to taking a TiBu update of everything and reflashing.
Once I get my battlestation fully armed and operational I plan on taking frequent nandroids and seeing if I can replicate the issue. Once I do that, (if I do) I can compare the last known good nandroid to see what messed up.

It's completely fixed! No apps (so far :fingers-crossed have crashed and i'm able to happily play my games again! sigh. that was refreshing.
Thank you to everyone! i will edit my first post to outline what i did and how i fixed it, finally....
during saferoot process your suppose to update SU then continue with finishing up the root process..took me several hours to figure this out..no errors now since I figured this out
Sent from my SCH-I535 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
That... Actually makes sense. When I used safe root I didn't check for any other updates because I assumed the program took care of that for me. That and because when I opened su there were no notifications to update. So maybe that could be a solution as well.

Hi there;
I reinstall the stock rom on my nexus 5. At the beginning all my apps get well installed. But I see that Zooper Pro Widget didn't install, I try to install it manually but I receive the message error RPC:S-3...
I found a thread on XDA a tried everything were mentioned there but nothing works .
The problem seems to be with Zooper cause I can install other application without problems.
Any idea ?
Did you install the latest stock image, 4.4.3? Maybe zopper isn't compatible with it yet

Got the same issue at the moment with an app (Scrum Poker).
I tried clearing stuff (google play and google play services - didn't touch the play framework data yet) but to no avail. The app is constantly nagging me about updates and I will probably end up uninstalling it.

It seems that's a a random issue. I was updating my apps when I only had this error with CM Browser.
This is happening to me too, I thought that it's because I rooted with towelroot.
I had to download the apk using apk downloader chrome extension and sideload it.
I could not update using play store. I uninstalled it tried to install it fresh but I still got the error. After I sideloaded it, I uninstalled it and tried to install it directly from Google play and it worked!
Edit: the apps that I could not update were gtasks and badland.

Did the same, and now I don't get the nag about the update. Guess there was something odd, since I had to "force" to download the latest, so maybe the error is actually on google's side and I have been resetting and reconfiguring stuff like a mad man for nothing
Exactly.I cleared data for Google play and Google play services, uninstalled updates for Google play, I even cleared data for Google framework but nothing helped. It could be a Google issue.

I can install a new app or uninstall an app and then reinstall it without a problem.
It seems that only apps that have updates generate this error.
*EDIT* There's a new update for rayman fiesta run and the update worked so the problem could be fixed already
*EDIT2* I uninstalled Badland and it still gives the error when I try to install it fresh.

I'm assuming this is perhaps an issue on Google's end somehow. I've never had this error, as I've always been stock/rooted. However, I am now getting this error when trying to update the ESPN Sportscenter app. I figure I'll just wait to see if it resolves itself.

Yesterday I was finally able to install CM Browser. I didn't do anything to fix it.
In my case force downloading the latest version from play store (using the chrome extension on my desktop) did the trick. It seems that the version that google was serving me by default was 2.3 though it was notifying me that it had an update ready.
Guess it's some sort of caching issue, but for me it was annoying (was so close to reset the phone).

Just an update from my post above. I was getting the error all day yesterday trying to update the Sportscenter app. This morning, it updated fine. I didn't do anything at all. I guess a little patience does go a long way.

Reboots all the time since the latest OTA update

I've just received an OTA for my P900 (bought in UK, completely stock, not rooted, P900.XXUANI1). Since then the tablet has been rebooting randomly several times a day. It's a funny sort of reboot where the tablet is back up and running almost instantly, not like on a usual startup. The screen goest black, the "Samsung" logo flashes for a half a second and it's back at the lockscreen. No blue-lines-logo animation that goes with a usual startup, but all the apps I was using are closed and the recent apps list is empty.
Is anyone having the same problems? Any ideas on how to fix this?
You can try a factory reset.

I know I probably should after an update anyway, but I'd hate to have to set up the tablet all over again, so I'll give it a few more days. I was wondering if anyone came accross this problem and found a different solution. Some people mentioned their ATT version crashing and how un-disabling an app has fixed it. I don't have an app called My Magazines though, so that's no good. I have a bunch of apps disabled though. Could any of them cause such funny behaviour?
I think it is a problem on several firmwares, and the devices are rooted.
I fixed it using the Xposed Framework and the Wanam addon.
Or you can try the http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/samsung-kitkat-systemserver-crash-fix-t2806046 add-on.
Thanks, this seems to be it. It looks like I'll be rooting my tablet when I get home today I should have done it ages ago anyway, if only to set the desktop user agent in the browser and get rid of adds.

Thank you so much, you just saved me a trip to the service centre. I've followed through with the first three steps and it booted back into the system I wish I could give you more than one "Thanks".
I don't have time to go through the rest of the steps today since I still have some stuff to do for work, but if the tablet keeps "rebooting" I'll be back in a few days to root and report how it went with the Xposed module.
BTW, I haven't been able to find the file "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-v1awifi.img.tar" the guide mentions as no. 4, and no other twrp version for P900 (only P905) on their site. Do you maybe have a link for that?
And big thanks again!

I'm also at work so I'm not at my computer. I think I found that file by doing a Google search for it. Yes, let me know if it keeps rebooting. I have my own tablet rebooting issues (as you can see in one of the other threads, heh). I lost my root by reinstalling SuperSU one too many times... I blame it on trying to change settings before reinstalling because I was trying to achieve something.

I blame it on trying to change settings before reinstalling because I was trying to achieve something.

I tried googling, but like I said, the official TWRP site did not have a file for p900, only p905. Here's the list of all the supported devices on their site, I only see p905 and 3g variants.
Then there's this site. I didn't realize that "v1awifi" is the part that refers to p900. I'm going to use the latest version from here today and try to get root again. If I succeed, I'll then try the Xposed package. I only had three reboots in the last 24 hours though (which is much less than before my first root attempt), so it might be a while before I can be certain the reboots are gone.
EDIT: I rooted in a few minutes without a single problem. Xposed and module installed, starting the clock for reboot-watch now I'll report back immediately if I get a reboot, or in 24h if I don't.
EDIT2: It looks like Xposed with the Samsung SystemServer Crash Fix works. The app posts notifications when a crash is prevented, and I've just had three in the last hour, with no crashes.
Best of luck. I tried that Xposed and Wanam module combo and it seemed to work for most crashes. However, I still get reboots when I wake it up from sleep after a full charge (from my experience).

Try the other app, the SystemServer Crash Fix. I've just charged up my tablet for the day, and when I woke it up while still plugged in, I got a crash notification. I've also had a few more yesterday. So far, not a single crash, it worked every time.

I also installed the System Server Crash Fix, but it didn't prevent the reboot. Hopefully it works for you!
I purchased Titanium Backup and froze all the Knox related processes and apps, but I still got a reboot. So, I just did a factory wipe on the tablet and rerooted. This time it prompted me and asked about disabling Knox. This time I chose cancel instead of disable. Crossing my fingers now. If I still see a reboot tomorrow morning I will probably forget about rooting my tablet.

Just adding in. The SystemServer Crash Fix is an Xposed module why you also need to install the Xposed Installer. First validate Xposed, then the crash fix app, finally reboot and you're done. Finally, just pray that your issues are gone...

I went halfway between your approaches. I chose to disable Knox when asked, but I did not freeze any of the apps with Knox in the name in TB. First, I reset the default apps settings and then used TB to freeze a bunch of bloatware, but nothing with Knox in the name. The only such app currently frozen is Knox Notification Manager 1.0. Also, I never installed Wanam module, just SSCF.

I've just received an OTA for my P900 (bought in UK, completely stock, not rooted, P900.XXUANI1). Since then the tablet has been rebooting randomly several times a day. It's a funny sort of reboot where the tablet is back up and running almost instantly, not like on a usual startup. The screen goest black, the "Samsung" logo flashes for a half a second and it's back at the lockscreen. No blue-lines-logo animation that goes with a usual startup, but all the apps I was using are closed and the recent apps list is empty.
Is anyone having the same problems? Any ideas on how to fix this?

I have the same problem, since I upgrade my T900, I have the same behavior you described.
Read a lot and tried everything, even Xposed Installer. Nothing corrected it.
I didn't test this firmware version it without root (can't live without it!).
If what you said that you have the random reboot without root, I really think that this firmware release is buggy.
I will now return to the previous firmware.

There's no doubt that Samsung is at fault. My tablet was stock, unrooted, in no way modified, and it still crashed several times every hour, usually when screen timed off and was turned on again, but also on other occasions. I would flash an older version too, but then I might have to do a clean install and set it up again, so I tried root + Xposed + SSCF first, and fortunately it worked. With the added benefit of Desktop User Agent in Chrome, no ads and a much snappier tablet. I should have rooted months ago

I installed the SystemserverCrash Fix app first, then the Xposed Installer... is that why it didn't work for me? Thanks in advance.

Which app did you use for no ads? Adblock Plus and Adaway didn't seem to work for me...

Adblock Plus version 1.2.1.325 works fine for me. It allows some unobtrusive ads through by default. If you want to block all you can, but you have to manually enable it in app settings.
If a particular app is still showing ads it sometimes helps to clear the cache.

You could always try installing them the right way round to see if it will make a difference. I think I installed both apps at the same time, but then I opened Xposed, activated it, rebooted the tablet, then activated the module (which showed up in Xposed automatically, IIRC).
First, you should double-check that the SSCF is activated in Xposed, if it is not, it won't stop the crashes.

[Q] Problem with Galaxy SIII

Hey guys,
I have a Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-19300 8GB running on Anroid 4.3, rooted and custom ROM Manager installed. Recently all Google Play services have stopped working. I literally can't do anything. I can' t log in, can't use Youtube, can't open the Play store because it gives me the No connection- retry error, of course. I heard it was because of Freedom. I deleted the app and tried to re-install it... but I cannot even install apk files; not any kind of apk file. I tried to force-install it with an android terminal, but that doesn't work either. Aptoide also does not want to install anything. I basically deleted the cache for every google app & I uninstalled all updates; but all in vain. Nothing seems to work except for Whatsapp and the actual internet browser. Please help me, I really need my phone to work properly.
Thanks in advance, any kind of help is appreciated

Reflash Stock ROM via Odin (you wont lost anything on internal storage) or try flash any gapps for 4.x.x via custom recovery.

Download your stock ROM. Put it in your pc and then flash it using Odin.
U may also need to flash gapps using your custom recovery.

Ok. You have got the answer in this thread
But before that just try to do a factory data reset
If you have some important data, take a nandroid backup
And then do a factory data reset
And I may be a foolish in this but I am considering it because everything may be possible here, enable the background data if it is disable

Well, okay, I guess that's my only option, I have reflashed the Stock ROM and that hasn't fixed my problem either. Factory data reset it will be. I'll come back to you whenever I have done the data reset. I really hope this'll fix the problem, because I don't want to do a factory data reset at all. :/
