Hi Everyone,
I am experiencing a very odd situation every time when I send my Shift to sleep and than resume ( power plan is set to Max performance ). This is what happens :
1. Having connected to Wifi network, I initiate sleep.
2. When Shift is in sleep mode ( doesn't matter how long ), I resume. Wifi connection is not possible anymore, but Comm.manager still says Wifi is active (?? ).
3. I try to reboot. As soon as I try to start task manager, I get an "Application not responding" message. The application is "Microsoft windows" ??
4. Shift gets completely stuck, I have to force power off...
Any idea, anyone ??
Hey so I had to change out my sim for another one as it wasnt working and when i turned on my phone and tried to access gmail/market it keeps saying that the password was changed.
I havent changed the pass as it works fine on my pc and keeps asking for authentication for some reason. When i enter the pass a small auth toast pops up and then goes away and nothing happens.
Any way to fix this without hard resetting?
Having issues with my Q. I've left it stock up until this point and a month or so ago I started getting a message from within the app stating "Collection Not Found." There's an option to search the network for the collection which, when tried, immediatly throws the message "Collection has been found on your network" but returning to the previous screen shows the same "Collection Not Found" message as before.
I had debug mode turned on at the time and but tried a factory reset which didn't help and now debugging mode is turned off. I've seen mention of a slider switch on the device that might enable debug mode but I don't see one on mine anywhere so that's probably not an option.
I even resorted to calling Google for support but they told me 1. they don't have any support information for the Q and 2. that since I purchased this Q via ebay from an I/O attendee, there's nothing they could do about a refund/exchange. Thought this was pretty ****ty but I can understand not training support personel on a device that was never officially released.
Any ideas on how to get this fixed are welcome. I'm probably going to install CM on it now if I can get it working again. Thanks.
I have a stock unrooted Verizon Galaxy S5. For several months my phone has been plagued by several issues at startup. Whether I reboot the phone or start it up after the battery has died, it always enters an odd state immediately after loading and seems to get stuck in this state for an undetermined and variable amount of time (anywhere from a few seconds or minutes to hours or even overnight).
While in this state, this is what happens:
1. Screen stays on. Once I unlock the phone, the screen stays on. The side button doesn't do anything to lock the phone or turn off the screen. Holding down the button, however, still triggers the power menu. The screen timeout never triggers, even though it should turn off the screen after 2 minutes of inactivity.
2. WiFi and Bluetooth turned off. Even if they were turned on before I powered down the phone, they are not enabled when the phone first boots up. I can manually turn them on but the WiFi will not connect to a network, even if one is available. It may show it is connecting to the network, but it gets stuck at "Checking the quality of your internet connection" and continues to use the 4G network for data connectivity. This happens no matter what WiFi network I am within range of, so it's not an issue with the network or router itself. If I am not near a network at all I will still experience the other problems of not being able to lock the phone, etc.
3. Startup applications don't load. I have Tasker on my phone, but it doesn't load and show it's notification bar icon.
Otherwise, I can use the phone normally and open applications, surf the web, etc. It seems that loading some applications and using the phone eventually causes the phone to exit this mode, but I haven't been able to find a single particular application or series of steps to fix the problem. If I power on the phone and don't use it that just seems to make it take even longer to fix itself.
Once it gets out of it's weird state, the WiFi connection will become active (it will turn on WiFi if I haven't done so manually already) and it will connect to a known network if one is available, the phone will lock itself or I can do so from the side button, and things like Tasker and Power Save mode will turn on.
I am stumped as to what could be causing this problem or how to fix it. It seems the phone may be doing some kind of check, maybe related to Knox, that hangs during startup and prevents certain things from working until it straightens itself out.
Any clues into what this problem is, what is causing it or how I could further analyze this problem and determine its cause would be greatly appreciated.
Never heard of or experienced these issues. May want to contact Samsung.
Have you installed any official updates from Verizon at any point? I've heard of phones having phantom problems like this after receiving a bad update. I would definitely contact Verizon if you did update at any point. If not then like BigBot96 said, contact Samsung about the problem.
My wife's Note 2 did something similar when the battery died. I had to factory reset. Her phone was rooted/unlocked & running a custom TW ROM, though. May I suggest doing a complete factory reset and Odin. Backup data to computer or external sdcard since this will clear the entire device.
Edit: After rereading OP's post it actually sounds like an app is hanging at startup which could cause this behavior. A logcat should tell you what's going on.

I am having some problems after an update today. Build number is NRD90M.G935FXXU1DQE7.
The first thing I noticed is that it no longer connects to my WPA Enterprise (EAP-TLS) network. I was told the log on the RADIUS server is saying the client rejected the server's certificate. When I manually click on the network to force it to connect, the "Settings UI" would sometimes crash.
I then rebooted the phone and each time it would reboot itself seconds after unlocking, but just before doing so, you notice the top bar does not show up or stop rendering half way so I think some part of the system is crashing and causes the reboot.
I then then disabled wifi before unlocking which stopped the auto-reboot. (You have to click on the "Wifi" label in the drop down to get to the details page which shows you a wifi toggle switch. Click that switch and then unlock.) If I leave Wifi on and reboot then the boot loop returns so it's pretty clear it's Wifi-related.
I then "forgot" the WPA Enterprise network and subsequently the phone no longer crashes after reboot. Unfortunately, it still cannot connect to that network.
Another thing I notice with this update is constant CPU usage. If you enable "show CPU usage" in developer options, you notice the load average is constantly >6. This is very high for a mobile device and indicates something is probably stuck in a loop.
Is anyone else having similar issues?
Do a factory reset and set up as new phone do not restore our use backup settiings do install everything fresh this is what fixed multiple issues i had
