I just got my fascinate today @ bestbuy and I've rooted it and installed the Clean rom. When I boot, and get to the unlock screen, the phone makes a noise for about 20 seconds and I can't shut it off. It finally stops when "media scanning" is finished. How can I disable this noise? Also, how can you disable the noise that comes up in ADW when the orientation is changed?
-Thanks, Eriscentro, a new fascinator
Did you wipe data and clean cache and back up stock rom

Hello all,
Received my a7 a few days ago and was noticing sometimes it wouldn't wake up when it went to standby. The green indicator on the top of the device became solid instead of blinking which I assume means its not in standby anymore, but the screen remains blank. I thought a factory reset would fix the problem, but it didnt. I installed dexters mod last night and it did nothing to fix the problem. Any suggestions? Should I send it back or is there a fix for this?

You can't send back while you have custom ROM. Revert to stock ROM and try to reproduce the problem. Install 2-3 applications and check. Then install a few apps again.
I think it's app fault.

I just installed the new firmware and its doing the same thing, even before installing any apps. Gonna send it back.

Mine did this briefly, I removed power cord, pressed reboot button with paperclip, then went to recovery mode and did factory wipe. I've been good ever since. This did not help until I tried with cord out for entire process.
Hi
I have a rooted stock ROM/Theme MT4G which I noticed last week that it stopped going to sleep. If I set the timeout to 15 seconds (or anything) then right after the timeout is reached the screen sleeps and then within a second immediately comes back on (to the lock screen). It keeps doing that no matter what settings I try. This of course kills the battery life with my screen being nearly 100% of use.
I thought it was related to an app update so I removed nearly everything I could to no avail. Thinking that it was something related to the ROM I decided to try a different ROM. I installed CM7RC2 and low and behold the same problem persisted. I had to disable trackball wake for this problem to go away. I then tried several other ROMs and the problem still remained. I've attempted the various Royal* ROMs and the same problem persisted. Any Sense based ROM was problematic since I had no way of disabling Trackball Wake so I'm now running CM7 (nighties).
The other snag I'm having is that I too have the problematic power button but in my case I have to REALLY press hard to operate the power button which of course is annoying.
Anyone have any suggestions or experience with this sort of problem?
Thanks.
Did you check out the Cyanogen mod 7 in settings ?
I did. That's what I'm running now.what exactly are you suggesting? Thanks.

I have the same exact issue, ive been trying to get some devs to add the disable trackpad wake option in sense roms but so far nothing so right now i use either royalginger or royalmiui im on miui but i really miss sense :/
I had the same thing. I booted into recovery and wiped data and cache and flashed again and everything worked.

I must have done that a bunch of times already but nothing worked except CM7 because I can disable the trackpad wake function. I wish Sense based ROMs allows for disabling the trackpad...that would be greatly appreciated. An even more helpful feature is the ability to remap the buttons.
Is it possible your trackpad is defective? DO you notice other odd behavior that could be related to it?
If your using google voice its the application doing that you can fix this on cm 7 by moving the application to the Sd card.

I believe this is a real hardware issue... It seemed that the optical sensor in the trackpad is broken and it's always sending signal to the kernel telling that it detected activity but in reality nothing was going on, so the kernel can never go into power saving mode.
Sense UI is a CLOSED SOURCE software, there's nothing you can do to patch it.
Since ALL MT4G are still under the 1 year Manufacturer's warranty, you should call T-Mobile/HTC to get it fixed or just get a replacement....
Ok I found a solution for us mt4g owners with the messed up trackpads, you are gonna have to flash virtuous unity rom v. 2.39 and then apply this patch:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/28766802/Virtuous/trackpad_disabled.zip
This patch was made by one of the developers of the rom chrisch1974 specially for this issue, so good luck =D
Same problem, but found work-around
My phone (MT4G) has the same issue but I know why it happened. I got caught in the rain and although I had the phone in my pocket, it got wet. Everything works except that. I left in a bag of rice overnight to no avail.
Anyway, when I press the power button to send it to sleep mode, it just comes back to the lock screen. If I let it time out, it goes out but comes right back to the lock screen. Sounds familiar?
What works for me is holding the home button (the one with the sensor) and, while still holding the home button, pressing the power button once. It is then that I let go of the home button.
Works, but sometimes I have to repeat this charade a couple of times before it sticks. Usually have to repeat it when I don't fully press the home button.
Anyway, hopefully this will help someone that is stuck with this phone and is unable to get a replacement.
Bought this phone about 2 weeks ago. Was playing with the settings when i noticed in accessibility there was an option for the camera light to flash when you get a message. Cool right? **** no!
At first everything seemed great, then while sitting in the gf's truck waiting for god knows what, i noticed that the light was on in my pocket, the phone was mad hot, and it killed the battery power by 30%.
Ok, simple solution right? Turn off the option... Later in the day realized the flash was back on on notifications, turned it off again. Long story short, unfroze all the bloat (non rogers bloat anyways) and killed the process (cant remember the name atm) and problem solved. The accessibility option did not re-enable.
Until today... Weeks later, randomly, the phone is flashing away on notifications once again. Turn off the option, reboot, and the option is selected again.
This phone has been problem free, no power issue or fc's. Actually its a great device, but is this stupidity really just me?

Have you tried wiping cache (and dalvik if you have cwm/twrp) in recovery after resetting light notification setting?

Stupidly enough no... Considering this being the first device I've left stock the thought hadn't even crossed my mind. (cache wipe, yes ive done, didnt think of dalvic though).
Thanks, will give it a shot.

If I try and reboot the phone instantly it turns on, gets to the lock screen, and after anywhere from 4-10 seconds, it turns off and suddenly I'm looking at the LG then AT&T boot splash again. If I hold the power button to force power off and let it sit, off, for a minute or two then turn it back on it works just fine.
I think it has something to do with the rooting process. I never got the original chinese superuser app removed and the new superuser app working properly and had to re root it a couple of times, then eventually gave up and left both of them on the phone and didn't try to remove the chinese one.
I'm not sure what to do since I can't just boot into rom manager and flash a stock rom over mine like I would have to fix problems with any of my older android phones.
Are there special steps I might have missed when trying to remove the chinese superuser app? Maybe I did something out of order by accident? I followed the thread on G2 => General to the letter...
EDIT: I also have a few apps frozen in Titanium Backup, but I don't think any of them could cause this. This is the list of frozen apps:
-Featured Apps
-File Manager
-LG Backup
-LG Keyboard
-LG Keyboard Black Theme
-LG Keyboard Lovely Theme
-LG Keyboard Natural Theme
-Music 4.2.9
-Music 4.1.13
-POLARIS Office 5
I think it almost definitely has to do with the root issues I had earlier.
Is this guide the only way to return to bone stock firmware on AT&T? I tried following it a few days back but I don't think I ever got my phone into recovery mode.
This happened to mine when I went into the service menu and made changes to the thermal settings. After forcing it off and waiting about 10 minutes, it booted up fine.

Thanks! Which settings and what is the default? I went in and changed the things I thought I changed originally when u did that but I'm not totally sure if I changed them back to what they're supposed to be.

The default for High Temperature Property and Thermal Daemon Mitigation is OFF. I got gunshy and turned them back to OFF and haven't fooled with it since.

Last night my phone was working perfectly and i didnt install any new apps yesterday so i dont know what caused this to happen...
At about 6am today i turned on my phone. it was all fine until i unlocked it. When i put in my pattern it unlocked and it showed a few of my icons for about half a second and then it came up with an error message saying that the launcher had crashed so i pressed "ok" and it came up again so i pressed "report" and then it said "market feedback agent has stopped" and went back to the launcher and came up with the first error again.
i was just thinking about a way of getting around all the errors to install a new launcher so then i could use my phone. i plugged in my earphones and used the button to start playing my music, then i unlocked my phone and quickly opened skype before the error came up again and then i went in my notifications and i could open Play Music from the notification, i had a notification for an app update so i clicked it and it opened the play store so i installed "go launcher ex" i tried going into my recent apps to change my song but it said "system ui" had crashed, i tried to get into my settings but that crashed too, i worked out that it was most of the stock apps and a few others like bbm that werent working.
device specifications:
Nexus 4
Android 4.3
Rooted
Stock rom
Stock kernal
I dont know what to do without losing everything? thank you for any help
rebooted already? This usually fixes a lot of probs.
cheers
This is happening to me to. I fix it by clearing the ram or closing all open apps. But it happens like once daily now. Any long term solutions?

just different description... Just cleared google service framework data... will check back in on that thread after tomorrow morning and let you know if it works.
Same here. Bone stock and I don't even shut the phone off but overnight something happens to it and all apps crash. It sucks because it was my morning alarm but the clock app crashes without sounding the alarm.
If I reboot it will work perfect till the next morning, then all over again. Wiped and it still does it. Called it in and Google wasn't aware of anything so if you get this make sure and call Google so they know its widespread.
I cleared services framework and it solved it. So far, 2 days without infinite force closes

That did not fix it for me.
I got the infinite loop the next morning.
i tried re-booting but nothing happened, i had to go into recovery mode and reset my phone. now i wish i made a backup.
I haven't been getting those major crashes yet but after a while I can't open any apps or they "stop. " I think it has been happening ever since I returned to stock for the kit Kat update. Closing all the apps sometimes fixes it but that ruins my favorite part of the phone which is I can have all my stuff open all the time.

You guys should try fastboot flash system... I was getting these crashes awhile back and flashing the system.IMG solved it for me. You will not loose any data either
