Sprint CDMA Hero RIL/Dialer issues - Hero, G2 Touch General

I had an issue with my RIL crashing after a while due to "Insufficient Resources" which caused the text message I was trying to send to fail. This error occurred after about 2 days of use without a reset. When I rebooted and checked the Battery/CPU/Partial Wake-Lock usage in spare parts, it said that the dialer had been running the whole time(Part of the poor batter life issue).
Has anyone else had this problem?
I think the problems are probably related. Something in the dialer has a memory leak. Part of that leak involves the continuous wake-lock request. The other part has to due with it just eating resources up. All of the problems stem from the TXT messaging part of the dialer.
Once that is fixed it should be fine, I hope.

Why does Push Mail causes problems

I have the TYTN devic and I've been trying it with different ROMs (starting with the original, '06 original, '06 SCHAPs 3.57/3.54c)
All of them have the some problem: if I enable the Push Mail (and I need it as that the reason I purchased the device for) I have to reset the device several times a day (it simply stops responding and doesnt turn-on). If I disable the PushMail (through the Comm Manager) but leave the data connection open with Live or IM+ running, everything is cool. From this I conclude that there is a problem with the PushMail... any ideas on how to fix it?
I don't have this issue, and I have not read about it as a widespread issue. It has worked fine with vp3g roms and current radio(see sig), and 1.47 radio. I would suspect a sotware conflict, or an exchange server problem. I am not a guru with these devices, just an everyday user, so I can't troubleshoot for you. I would suggest the roms in my signature.
Ok, I'll try installing the same builds.
Any other ideas?
This based of of one or two incidents in the past, but I feel outlook mail is the more likely culprit. I have had a few instances where messaging could not send or receive an email, and it would get stuck in a connected state attempting to send or domnload for an extended time. This usually results in running down the battery, and the need to reset in order to get the device to begin working again. I have also experienced random lock up due to a critically low memory state on occasion. The first problem seems to usualy be related to sending an email with a large attachment. The second is related to excessive numbers of apps open and a large ie cache buildup. I have never had a lockup that I could directly relate to push mail.
Move e-mails to SD-card
Looks like you have memory problems caused by number and/or size of e-mails. I am using push e-mail with all mails and attachments on SD-card and have no issues like you. You could search and find on this forum how to do this with registry hack.

*DO NOT USE BT*ROM Memory Leak Filling Up Internal Memory causing fatal SMS failure

This exact issues cause me not to receive anymore SMS text and 0 free memory.
http://community.sprint.com/baw/message/128509#128509
I am experiencing the same issue posted over at androidforums.com. Today I had to take my phone back due to 0 amount of memory left on the device and no SMS or voicemails being received on the device. This along with the sleep issue is unacceptable and I have no clue how Sprint and HTC released devices with such obvious flaws. I was fiving Sprint and HTC another chance after my 6 month disaster of the HTC Touch Pro. Over that time I exchanged it 5 time due to the keyboard failing.
Here is the EXACT same issue I am experiencing: CLICK ME! or read below.
ROM Memory Leak Filling Up Internal Memory
Issue:
Over time, Internal Memory free space dwindles and no amount of clearing apps frees the space. This will also cause the above issue of SMS & Voicemail messages not being received once a critical amount of free space is reached.
During the past few weeks my my Hero has been exhibiting signs of a ROM memory leak. It led to not being able to receive SMS messages even after hard resetting the phone. See these threads for that issue:
HTC Working on critical SMS/Voicemail issue
Intermittent Text Message Receiving - Deals more with intermittent issue, but has some fatal sms isuues in it too.
MMS/SMS stopped working after out of space error?!?
It appears a leak is being caused when rebooting (or turning off bluetooth) the phone when the phone is in a "connecting" status with bluetooth device. Basically the phone stays in a "connecting" status when it fails to connect, even though the notification in the notification bar says it is connected and your bluetooth device says it is connected. In actuality it is not and all calls and audio will be routed to your phone not bluetooth device. If you restart or turn off bluetooth while your phone with a "connecting" status active I have found when you reboot it will eat away at your ROM memory(not RAM). You may not ever notice the bluetooth connection failure if you don't get a call while when it should be active. The "connecting" status does not clear unless you unless it manages to connect after a while which is rare (either does it within a few seconds or not at all) . I made a video of this behavior because not a lot of people have been experiencing or at least catching on to it with their usage patterns.
Edit: It appears that the leak actually occurs even if you turn bluetooth off while the phone is in connecting status so a reset is not necessary for the leak to occur. This basically renders bluetooth use unusable as there is no way I can think of to avoid a leak if it gets stuck with the "connecting" status.
Sorry for the video orientation.
YouTube - HTC Sprint Hero ROM memory leak, possible SMS failure Part 1
YouTube - HTC Sprint Hero ROM memory leak, possible SMS failure Part 2
I just returned my first hero today and set up everything all over again. i use bluetooth a lot on the phone, about 4 hrs a day, and would stop getting sms messages. the problem was fixed with a soft reset until recently, which they then told me to get a new one. i guess i will try to deal without using bluetooth for a while and see if any new info comes up or if i get the problem again.
this same thing happened to me too, wish I would have seen this earlier. I was having some BT issues so everything would connect and then disconnect.. so I had to get a new phone too
Can't wait for a patch!
The bluetooth issue isn't settling with me well. I used to use bluetooth daily, now I can't. Htc needs go adress this problem soon....

Unfortunately fused location has stopped working

I am on 4.2.1 and have been having an issue with multiple reboots and freezing per day. Occasionally I get the message "unfortunately fused location has stopped working. I has happened multiple times per day every day. Seems to happen often when leaving wifi and going to cell data. Extremely annoying.
Anyone know a fix for this annoying issue?
I have been having this problem for about a week or so now on my galaxy nexus. I figured it was related to all my other problems with the phone such as charger indicating phone is charging when not plugged in, camera screen loads black and videos such as YouTube don't play. Like yours my phone frequently crashes. It doesn't appear to be app related as it has crashed in games, when unlocking the phone or even when setting the alarm.
I hope there is a quick fix for this.

Fix: Update to 4.2.2? :silly:

[Q] Dialer / Keypad Lag or Massive Delay when making call?

I have a Canadian Rogers Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N900W8) running the latest software update (as of last night).
Any time I dial someone's number, there is a full 10 to 15 seconds delay/lag before the phone 'reacts' and starts to actually make the call. This lag/delay happens regardless if I am:
using speed dial (though it is especially obvious then)
manually dialling a number
sliding to the right on a person's contact (quick dial)
pressing and holding on a contact's number to dial
I've tried adjusting the Google Sync settings, turning on/off the "Sync People details" as well as my Samsung account's "Sync contacts". I've disabled Facebook/Linked In "Sync Contacts", based on my theory that there was some sort of hiccup being caused by these apps' attempts to pull data on the contact immediately upon me placing the call.
The other issue is that Contact photos/names are also severely delayed when receiving an incoming call, for example when my phone starts ringing, all that I can see is their phone number at the top of the screen (almost as if it's the 'raw' cellular data), and not their name or picture (as normally would immediately appear on say my Galaxy S 3).
I've searched all over but have yet to see this issue pop up. This seems really strange. Any ideas or solutions?? Thanks!
Edit: I tried a second battery pull and hard restart and this seems to have fixed the issue for now. Weird!
If it's any consolation, it's not just your Rogers Note 3. I'm having the same issue with the Note 3 made for T-Mobile USA. I'm going to try the battery pull like you suggested and see if that resolves the issue, as well as some alternate dialers. I'll post my luck once I've tried this.

I have found this problem (delay dialing) for 2 weeks.
When I connect to internet, by wifi or mobile data, it is corrected. But whenever the internet connection is disconnected , it apears.
I'm disappointed from Note 3 because of lots of bugs that has got especially after update to kitkat
-delay dialing
-not working any auto call recording app.
-not working properly it's sensors.
And etc
Same bug here. 4.2.1. Phone was fine, never used to do it. randomly started doing this around the same time as I started getting multiple duplicate sms messages. Dialing delay goes away when wifi is on.
Very annoying. I'm open to suggestions!

At least 150MB of phone memory should be free..
Else, it'll lag..
I removed a few apps and now am having 200MB of free space on my Phone Memory (internal), and there are no lags..
Phone is running smooth..

Thanks for your reply! I have 1.1gb RAM free pretty much all the time, 1.18GB ROM free, and 20.99GB internal SD free.
Not sure this is the problem.
I got the same problem and i realized after i read this post that it doesnt happen if im connected with wifi. There should be a way to fix this, its a 500euro phone there shouldnt be such problems...
Had the same problem with a Samsung Relay, after a few updates. Had a chat with Samsung, after a hard cache clearing left me with the option to factory reset. Which I'm not very interested in. Uninstalled a lot of applications, then by chance connected to the wifi and sent an email. After that, it seems to be working now.
Didn't fix the problem for more than a few hours. Actually I believe hooking on wi-fi did it, because I connecting again this morning solved the problem again.
I installed a firewall and denied permission for all apps, let's see if this works...
No, the firewall doesn't work.
After connecting on wireless it works for about 3-4 hours. Then again bull**** happens. Don't know why, but this relation is interesting. There is no actual traffic sent form the device, since the firewall blocks a lot of the system bull**** apps from communicating, but after enabling it it works.
I see that enabling wireless even for a short while (3sec) is enough to get it back on track. Why might this be so?...
Prey
Factory reset, reinstall everything, then encryption. 4 hours. Tested during the procedure to see if it dials fast. It dialed, until the end, when it started to have the same problem again.
Then I got the wonderful idea from above to check if there is something wrong with Prey. A software to block your phone if it's stolen. And guess what, as long as it's not connected to the Internet, it hangs and won't open. Maybe this was creating the problem? Don't know, but for now I uninstalled it and it seems to be working. I remember it did an update before the problem occurred, maybe the update is the problem? Will write again if the problems persists.

Seems I'm having the same issue on two of my Prey-enabled devices (HTC One X+ and HTC One X) after upgrading to latest version. Happens with Data-off.

[Q] 'mm qcamera daemon' fix for Samsung S5?

This issue is rather infuriating as I never notice it until my batteries suddenly dropped to 5%, which does not take very long.
I'm just wondering if there's steps around the issue that don't involve uninstalling every app that uses the camera, because my main communication apps are Whatsapp/Viber.
The issue is stranger in that not all S5s seem to have it, but myself and my co-worker are both on the same network (Three Ireland) and both experience the issue.
So far my only way to resolve is to periodically check my phone and pull out the battery to reset it.
I only started getting this issue since updating to 5.0
