A whole list of problems
Hi guys,
I was wondering what could be wrong with my phone:
Basically, I noticed that my battery life starting to decrease. I went ahead and invested in Anker batteries (comes with two of them) so I could basically improve my battery life.
I also had installed an app called Smart Wifi (an app that would detect the wifi's in my home and switch to the strongest/turn off when none detected) in that time period.
Now the current issues I have about a week later:
1. My wifi won't turn on. It's stuck on "turning on" but never does. I think Bluetooth is doing something similar
2. I will have a fully charged battery inside and the phone will eventually go black. I think it's still on because the phone stays warm. I can't seem to revive it. To fix it, I have to remove the battery and re-insert it.
I tried doing a factory reset and that fixed some of the slowing down problems. The black screen and wifi problem is still there. I'm not too good at this stuff, so any insight would be appreciated. I was considering rooting my phone and seeing if I could solve anything after installing a custom ROM but I wanted another pair of opinions first.
Thanks!

i hv the same problem in my Lg g3 D855. Sometimes when i restart my phone, the wifi is working.. but the phone will shut down itself suddenly..... guys please help
.I also have this issue. Anyone found any solution
Same problem here. Reset factory and flashing don't help. My battery is draining by Android OS proccess.
For all of the posters on this thread. I may have a solution. I have a zip toolkit that has everything you need to do a complete restore of your d850. It will replace every bit of code that sometimes flashing a new rom doesnt. Now it will have to wait because there is one bug in the instructions that I accidently left out when i helped another guy, so iv contacted him so he could tell me what it was that I missed. But the process ill post here very soon should fix your problems.

Here is the link for the file to download. This zip has everything you need to restore your g3 d850 to complete stock (better than factory reset). And has what you need for root.

********READ QUICK INFO BELOW******
Theres a bit of instruction missing from the included guide so here it is to save yall a confusing headache.
" You have to check mark the "board" box, not SW update...we are downgrading, not upgrading. If you check mark the SW upgrade box, you will end up in a factory reset 2 screen. If that happens just reflash again."
So my problem happened downgrading from marshmallow to kk using lgup. After i used flashtool i didnt get a mini os screen like i always have before it just bootloops but if i keep the battery out long enough it does boot and shows att logo then restarts and bootloops again. The only thing that works is using lollipop kdz from d850pr but i dont get wifi bluetooth or hotspot and the battery drains fast. I wish there was a tot for lollipop i know that would fix it. I did root the d850pr and tried flashing a rooted 20f stock rom but i get boot srcurity and i have to flash all over again. I really dont know why its bootlooping

Well that sucks, it had worked for someone els so it maybe a fluke. An unfortunate one... So one thing to try now is this---
1. Download LG PC Suite here. Don’t worry about USB drivers, this program will automatically install them.
2. Turn your LG G3 off.
3. Connect your LG G3 to your computer and hold the Volume Up button.
4. This will put your phone into Download Mode.
5. After a few seconds in Download mode,
Open LG PC Suite.
6. Tap on the Repair button and follow the steps that the program provides.
7. Wait for the program to fix your LG G3.
Hope this works. If not, ill keep looking for a fix. Im sorry your having these problems. It worked for me and another guy so idk why your bootlooping but I have heard that it can happen even when everything is done right. So lets see what happen. Let me know how the bootloop fix i provided works out.

You have a completely new system so... Theres a chance its a hardware problem. It shouldnt since they are built into the SOC but your phone may have broken antennas. Ill keep looking to see what i can find. One thing to try is flash the nwest radio.

Its probably a corrupt file. Since its working on the rom you just flashed, then ill bet the stock rom file is corrupt. It happens. But glad to see everything it working. Im running CloudyG3 its stock based and it works wonders for me.

i have D850 and believe me i have had every issue with including the one you are talking about the best fix that kinda worked for me was :
1)open up the phone just remove the phiilip screws
2)besides the camera there is a connecting chip
3)place 2 small square pieces of paper on it covering it
4)close it up and see if it is fixed
if not just increase the number of papers
for a visual guide just watch it in youtube

You could flash back to stock firmware and try again. If the error persists then the files are probably not right for your phone.

The files the OP pulled are for his phone based on the baseband shown. It looks like it may be related to the OTA update that came through recently.

That explains it, the OTA update includes a slightly changed kernel (based on what I saw in the diffs) that is likely causing your WiFi issue. Can you try applying motorhead's kernel from here and see if WiFi starts working? I know it is not a full fix, but it should get your wifi back to working while motorhead and I coordinate on getting a stock kernel that can be flashed from CWR put together.
YEEEEE HAAAAWWWWW
I got some WIFI !!!!
Camera, BT and sound, seems like everything works.
Can't imagine why not a "Full fix".
Thank You !!!!
Says there is an OTA update, after it downloads, I get tossed into CWM bootloader 6.1.1 and the update doesn't get applied.
All I do is choose 'reboot system'.
Also I'm getting ...
"[ AT&T Address Book] Checking Subscriber Information"
when I touch contacts.
I am not an AT&T customer, I use STLK the BYOP program.
We really need a custom ROM for this great device, no bloat, no AT&T updates, no AT&T bloatwares, No CIQ, No City ID.
I would be HAPPY to PAY for a custom ROM and have it delivered two weeks from last Thursday. Jellybean?
Someone like me who chooses a rugged phone may not be into all the bells and whistles, so a basic stripped down
ROM would be great.
and yes, I am getting lag coming out of deep sleep. may have to hit power button twice to unlock.
Can't wait to try Motorheads soon to be released power kernel...

There is an updater app you can freeze to prevent this from running. Nicedream06 and motorhead1991 have it disabled w/o ill effects.

Working on it with a few others "right now". We have stable boot in ICS (CM9 and AOSP builds) but the modem is dead. No cell service at all. There are other problems but we are focused on getting the antenna up and going.

Check the super thread. I have an ODIN image that is pretty stripped down and it includes the 6.x version of CWR. I left a few things in "just in case" but they can easily be stripped out using any of the various root tools for removing system apps.

If you can post over in motorhead's thread that you are experiencing the problem it will help out to know that it is common. He mentioned he was looking into it. I'm sure something will be ready soonish.

The lag is a noted issue, along with the WiFi shutting off randomly and intermittently. I'm researching these issues as much as I can to find a fix, but I can only do so much so fast .
I was going to start a new thread but then I found this. I too had the issue with I the wifi turning off and the screen lag. After reflashing the no bloat Odin image and the 1.1 kernel my wifi turns on, but does not find any networks. It just searches then shuts off? Any ideas? I wonder if the stock kernel being worked on would fix this or if there is something else wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I sent the rugby smart to SAM to have it completely reloaded. when it comes back, i will try to make a back up much like i make an image of a hard drive...if that's possible.
For my PC, I have an image of this existing hard drive. If i pull it out and put in a BLANK hard drive, I can write the image to the new disk with all my apps installed...I use that feature often with my pc's and others...for mine, I frequently make a new updated image and delete the oldest one.
Once I change the bootloader, is it possible to get it back if I backed up with with Kies?
You guys are in luck. Kernel1.2 should be out shortly with the lag and wifi fixed . I'm waiting to hear back from another tester, but so far ut's proven stable. I've only had one error pop up, and that was after running pretty hard.
Motorhead1991, Is this for the Samsung Rugby Smart?
How much of, if any, overclocking??
Can you also tweak a non-overclocked version without "City ID" app, "Carrier IQ" app and possibly no AT&T bloatware??
You rock for everything thus far
No overclocking just yet, but I'm giving it hell. On the bright side, Kemonine and myself are currently treading in uncharted territory for this device (see if anyone gets my reference)
And to answer your question, yes it'll be for the Rugby.

Yeah, it actually did hurt to ask that one.
So after flashing the following new odin images
•Stock boot / kernel:
•Stock Boot + Stock Recovery + Stock System:
•Stock Boot + CWR 6.0.1.2 + No Bloat System:
My WiFi still turns on, searches for a while, finds nothing and turns back off! I have no idea what to do next. Any ideas?

When you flashed via ODIN did it show it was flashing the boot area? In the status window it should tell you which images are being flashed to the device. Can you re-try the stock boot/kernel ODIN image and confirm it did flash the boot image?
That is the only thing that booted. As soon as I selected the image I got a "MD5 checksum failed" prompt. The "start" button changed to the same message but it let me click it and it loads the boot.img. Does that help at all?

I can confirm it works. I unlocked my phone under the previous stock ROM for use on Wind, and it remained unlocked through the upgrade. I didn't need to unlock it again.

awesome, i'll wait for the tethering fix then
I have the stock ROM, and have just applied the update to my phone. Anyone know what the flashing red box around the screen is for?
I've been using the new JB ROM for a few hours now and have found a quirk or two.
When manually adjusting the brightness, sometimes the screen takes on a blue tint. Like, things that should be a dark blue become much brighter. This goes away if I tweak the brightness back and forth a few times.
I rooted the ROM using the CWM+flashable root file from previous ROMs. It worked, though last night I kept getting "radio is requesting superuser access" until I restarted the phone. I don't know what that was about. Hopefully it doesn't happen again.
The compass is STILL misconfigured. Every time you boot the phone, it needs to be recalibrated before it has any idea which way is up or north.

No idea what you mean. Got a picture?
---------- Post added at 12:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 PM ----------
Okay, so we may have something a little deeper here. Today I'm seeing the "radio is requesting Superuser permissions" dialog again and again. I'm unsure what this means, but as a wild-ass guess, it may be the ROM checking to see if the phone has been rooted. This could be bad for people out there who still have their warranties.
I can't seem to get a screen shot, but it's like what you'd expect the hard drive LED to do when accessing data. I've looked up different "solutions" through Google, and it seems to be a developer's mode attribute, but I turned it off. One person says to uncheck the strict mode setting, which hasn't worked.
Well, whatever it was, it's done doing its thing now. As the day went on, the red flashing border appeared with less frequency. Throughout this morning I didn't experience it at all. Maybe it was some type of optimization thing going on?
Tethering
So Jax184 are you tethering on the JB ROM on Wind somehow or are you waiting for the tethering fix like Braccoz? I am on Wind as well and want to keep running the JB ROM but need to be able to tether on pretty much a constant basis.

Phone rebooted and got stuck on the screen with SAMSUNG with the pulsating blue background and just wouldn't go further. Got back in through ODIN and flashed back down to the LJ1 ROM but again when the phone reboots it is still stuck on the same screen. Did I just brick it? Anyone got any suggestions as to how I can get back up and running on *ANY* ROM?
Alright so it turns out that I didn't screw it up - the problem is that I just can't seem to downgrade. If I clear the cache in recovery and then flash the BMC5 (ie JB) image the phone will come back up running 4.1.2. However when I clear the cache and flash any other image (LJ1, LH1, etc) the phone just gets stuck on the SAMSUNG screen (and I've left it sit there for as long as 10 minutes to make sure it isn't actually doing anything).
The only reason to downgrade though for me is that I need to tether. Hence faced with this problem I started going through all the Wifi Tether apps (that I tried before the tethering patch was out for the previous versions and none worked) and discovered the FoxFi works. It seems to override the T-Mobile tethering restriction in that when it is active the normal Mobile Hotspot icon appears (as well as the FoxFi icon) in the notification bar and when you pull it up it shows as On with the devices connected listed. Using FoxFi isn't as elegant as just using the built-in software hence I'll hobble along with the new image and FoxFi but still hopes that someone is kind enough and smart enough to figure out a tethering fix for this image.
Anyone got any comments or suggestions?
Does anyone have the OTA update from TMO? I was going to make a flashable stock jelly bean rom, and the updater script is useful.
If you received the update and didn't apply it, it should be in the cache partition. PM me if you need help pulling it out.

That is the full rom, I was looking for the actual OTA update because I wanted to look at the updater-script.

You need to wipe everything, data, system, cache in order to downgrade from JB to ICS. Also wifi is likely to be broken due to the new JB over writing the persist partition. Someone who is still on ICS and who is rooted should probably keep a copy of that.
I'm having some gps issues and radio is requesting superuser access. This is on rooted,debloated jb with the jb radio.
Let me know if you need logs, data, or want me to flash something.

JB downgrade to ICS + GPS
Thanks for the info Nardholio! I guess that means I'm staying at JB then. Overall I'm happy with it and having no problems perse. However to address your specific comment about GPS, although I haven't had any issues with it I have noticed that it has taken up to 5 minutes to fully sync and get a position lock now. I hadn't attributed that to the upgrade necessarily though as this happens from time to time as being way up here in Calgary Alberta sometimes satellites aren't as easily visible as they could be and this happens occassionally with all of my GPS receivers. My old G2 used to have quite a lot of problems that way. Haven't noticed anything about root requests though as Gee One indicated.

does making a cwm backup cover that, and all other stuff needed too?
Wi-Fi won't turn on.
I have created bugreport on phone.. Not quite sure what to do right now (Where to send it, etc..) >.>
I have ViperS 3.0.2 on HTC Sensation XE. (S-ON)
When I go to settings, and tick on the Wi-Fi, phone tries to turn it on, then it just says ''Error'' after some time.
Wi-Fi worked perfectly earlier today, but maybe the update from 3.0.1 to 3.0.2 caused some problems.
(I updated today, then, turned Wi-Fi off after the update. Now the Wi-fi won't turn on)
The only mod I have installed on phone is the White keyboard. And then I have done some tweaks using Venom tweaks.
It could be hardware problem too, I guess..
Any help/ideas?
I'm not sure is it smart to upload the .zip of bugreport here, since it MAY contain something personal info. (I really have NO idea, but I don't want to risk it yet)
Some of you may have noticed this in Venom thread, but I figured it might be more appropriate to post it here.
Just tell me if you need extra info about phone..
E: Apparently several people had the same problem with CM10.1.
However, they weren't very helpful.. :/
Or should I try upgrading Kernel too? (I'd rather not, so if there is easier way, that would be great)
There was some info, that this kernel should be flashed, and that would fix the wi-fi problem..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39842159&postcount=533
However, the file doesn't exist anymore.. :/
DOUBLE-EDIT: I am now going to re-flash the 3.0.1, which seems to work just fine. But I would love to use 3.0.2, so if anyone has answers, please, do help.
Sorry for wall of text.

do as i said in my previous post
Lately, I'm experiencing a lot of problems with my Xperia L. For one, when I turn on Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, the phone just hangs for about five minutes before finally activating them. The same case applies to when I activate a wireless hotspot on my device. When I tap on 'enable wireless tethering', the phone completely hangs. This has really started getting on my nerves! :crying:
Also, when I capture multiple photos from my camera, I'm finding that some images are automatically rotated. I have to manually rotate them, which, of course, is no child's play.
Another issue that I'm facing is that the phone's gotten a bit unresponsive. It doesn't fire up applications like it previously did (not that I have many apps installed too. Just 4).
All this has got me thinking, was the Xperia L a waste of money? No firmware upgrades coupled with tons of bugs!
Should I risk it and go for a custom ROM? I really need some advice, fellow users! Please reply as soon as possible! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

It seems like you are on Stock ROM. If you have not done it already, try do a factory reset i know its not an easy task but it may bring your happy days back. If you are not a big Fan of Sony UI you can try Many KitKat ROMS that are available updated with Latest sources 4.4.4.
Very soon we might have almost Bug Free KitKat Custom ROM's, Its your wish to Flash a Custom ROM. (Losing Warranty)
WIFI + Bluetooth not working even after Kitkat cm11 rom

I Also have this problem with WIFI and Bluetooth. Cant switch em on. I was on 4.2.2 update...
At first WIFI & BT are fine. About 2 weeks ago it starts restarting. When I'm lucky enough to reach inside the Setting and use phone for sometime, I tried to turn on wifi... Phone hangs... then restart.. Sometimes it takes several "auto" restart before i can operate the phone. But after those, everytime I turn on WIFI.. it hang/restart. Also happen w/ bluetooth.
I tried flashing/downgrade to 4.1.2 stock rom w/ flashtool. The restarting stopped/fixed... BUT, there's no way I can turn on wifi. i keeps switched off everytime i tried.
Finally, I installed CM11 kitkat cw. Everything looks new and fine ans smooth.. BUT... still cannot switch on wifi! and bluetooth!! >.<
I dont know what to do. Is this a hardware problem?? or is there a fix/zip i can flash to fix this??
HELP.

I resolved the issue! It's going to sound extremely silly, but it worked wonders for me.
Basically, I deleted all downloaded apps that require a 'Full internet access' permission (The one with the WiFi icon), and viola! WiFi and Bluetooth work wonders now. I noticed this problem when I uninstalled Cleaner Master, and WiFi and Bluetooth jumped to life.
This is, however, a major setback. I can now download only a limited number of apps..
But hey, at least WiFi and Bluetooth work, so I've got that going, which is nice...
Any reasons why this may be happening guys?

You should perform a clean install of latest stock ftf. Looks like there's a problem with your kernel too. So flashing will put a new life to your phone. Remember to do clean install of firmware including kernel and wipe data alongwith resetting customizations.

Wifi
I flashed as directed, and it is running. The issue I have is wifi keeps disconnecting and reconnecting. I was running MOAR and it was great, but it would not roam, it was stuck on CDMA. Now this will not stay connected to wifi.

Not sure. Did you also flash the wifi calling fix and toggles addon in Post #2?
Just wondering if that had anything to do with it.
You can try reflashing the full stock tar and see if its doing it there. Then try reflashing the deodexed rom without the wifi calling fix, test it again and then flash with wifi calling fix at the very end to see if that's what is giving you the problem.

I've added a stock features.xml flashable to Post #2 of the home thread. Flash that first to see if it resolves any of your issues. If it doesn't, follow the other directions I posted. Not sure what else to try.

Thanks for the quick reply. In a fit of rage about 330 last night I wiped and flashed my way back to moar 2.2. Only issue there is I noticed the OA6 modem is still on it and I tried to phone and it works. I will leave as is for the day and try again tonight using your advice.

Hey Ted, someone in the main thread with the same issue with wifi said he turned off Smart network switching or something in advanced wifi settings and that fixed it for him. Myself, I always uncheck all the boxes in there...
[STOCK ROM][5.0] OA6 Android L Deodexed is the best!
Loving this ROM. It has everything I need except for a wireless charging notification toggle. Would NKD New Stuff Rev. 1.3 run on OA6?

I had the issue with constantly losing Wifi connection when standing less than 10 feet from my router. I turned off Smart Network Switching and the problem went away. Battery life improved drastically as well since my phone was no longer trying to pull all its data from the network.
Debloat seems to remove Pro Audio functionallity
Hey tdunham!
I finally got a chance to try out your OA6 ROM, and I'm really enjoying it! I just wanted to follow up on the pro audio functionality I had posted about in the MOAR 5.0 thread, or what might be another cause.
So I followed all the instructions, wiped, odined stock and recovery, flashed the ROM, flashed the debloat package, booted up, everything worked fine. First thing I did was download the galaxy store so I could try the pro audio application amplitube and soundcamp, same issues I had in MOAR, force closes on Soundcamp, no audio input through the mic.
Just to make sure it wasn't firmware, I flashed back to stock, everything with the pro audio apps worked well. Then I wiped and reflashed your ROM without the debloat package, and low and behold, the pro audio functionality worked fine. So whatever it is that cripples it is in what gets removed from the bloat I'm guessing, something that wasn't removed in the International BOA3 based ROM either. I'm fine living with all of the sprint apps, just a few more boxes to un-tick and things to hide in the launcher, but just thought I'd mention it in case anyone else runs into these issues.
Thanks again for all the great work!

no sprint yellow boot screen missing?
I had this issue awhile back on the first ROM that was released when the phone came out. The yellow boot screen is still included. along with pretty much every carriers custom boot animation. The problem is that csc file was rewritten to XAS, you want it to be SPR. This is the app I used to changed mine when it got changed. The downfall is that it wipes your phone and you have to start over, it could work with a backup but I usually just start from scratch anyway. Most of my data is cloud based so once I log into the apps I use nothing has changed. It also says it doesn't work with custom roms but it did work for me, on a dioxide custom rom. I cannot verify it works on 5.0 and I'm currently working on testing it if it can, unless you can get it completed yourself faster then I can.

I currently cannot download this rom as androidfilehost is down so I will figure out a way to test on boa6 stock with cf-auto root in the mean time.
On stock 5.0 BOA6 with root via cf-autoroot, I was able to rewrite the CSC from SPR to XAS/BST and back to SPR. It does indeed wipe your device so make sure to back up before use, or be prepared to start from scratch clean install of rom
deoxed boot animation fix
Ok a separate post for what I did. I flashed the BOA6 deoxed with CWM, flashing debloated and stock boot animation right after and before first boot. I let the device boot (10-15) minutes then did a basic setup to install CSC changer from the play store. I changed from XAS to SPR and let the app complete its processes, this included a reboot to a special recovery. The phone then rebooted with the sprint boot animation and continued to first set up where I then set my phone up as I wanted. I do not think a recovery will work as the XAS CSC would be in a back up before using CSC changer. however the app does do its job as far as getting the sprint boot animation back.
Hope this helps

Yeup, running version 1.1, which is really nice and smooth by the way.
Unfortunately nothing in there looks significant in terms of this functionality, so I have no idea what the professional audio system is associated with that keeps getting broken. Just to check though I made a nandroid backup after I set up the phone this time, then flashed the debloat (v1.2) tool...it was strange, it seemed like it worked for a minute, but then after not using it for a while the professional audio related apps started glitching again. Restarted, still glitched, restored to before I flashed the debloat package and it all worked again. It's been about a day or so and haven't had a problem since.

My guess would be the Samsung Billing being removed as you stated you only installed just the Samsung App. There is also a SamsungBilling App that gets removed also. If its a paid app its probably trying to check on something to verify its not a pirated app. Just a guess though [emoji780]

Internal Storage Double COunted
I'm having a problem whereas I'm getting notices that I'm running out of space and I know that I'm not.
I'm seeing a "/storage/emulated/legacy " path and a "/storage/SD Card" path. Is it possible that both are being counted against my total space count?
Is it possible to fix this? I'm backed up so formatting it or some other way that may erase just the contents of the internal card isn't a problem.
Everything else seems to be working fine. I haven't seen any of the reported issues.
battery drain?
Is anybody experiencing a high amount of battery drain. I flashed fresh last night and used ktoonez updated kernel to fix the 491 play store error... i dropped 30% battery in 1.5 hours this morning..

I'm having a problem whereas I'm getting notices that I'm running out of space and I know that I'm not.
I'm seeing a "/storage/emulated/legacy " path and a "/storage/SD Card" path. Is it possible that both are being counted against my total space count?
Is it possible to fix this? I'm backed up so formatting it or some other way that may erase just the contents of the internal card isn't a problem.
Everything else seems to be working fine. I haven't seen any of the reported issues.

Something may have gone wrong in the flash continuum. For me, I didn't OTA at all. I Odin-ed the tarball and everything is fine except for showing I am "Custom".
7.04 Gb still available....even after the flash of TDunham's Deodex.

Unless heavy web surfing/app using, that's a little heavy. I'm not sure what your settings are, but I did find that the Ktoonservative setting doesn't do for Lollipop what it used to on KitKat. I am set to 2475 over 300, Conservative @ bfq, No overclocking and no undervolting. GPU turned up full blast. KThermal only and Thermald enabled.
I go about 18-20 hours. I CAN get more, but I never turn data/GPS off. We wanted Lollipop and we got it. Ya gotta pay to play. It drains juice.

My guess would be the Samsung Billing being removed as you stated you only installed just the Samsung App. There is also a SamsungBilling App that gets removed also. If its a paid app its probably trying to check on something to verify its not a pirated app. Just a guess though [emoji780]

This is just ONE idea(and it may not work for everyone).
I had the old backup from TiBu. I restored it(app only) and it stuck. I can do everything in Samsung's app store.
