4g issue - EVO Shift 4G General

I just recently started using launcher pro instead of the sense launcher and since then my 4g comes in automatically when I restart my phone. Does anyone else have this issue? If so is there a way to stop that from happening? I don use 4g because coverage sucks in my area and I have WiFi to hook to almost everywhere I go.

Did you make sure the 4G box is unchecked in your settings (wireless & networks?) That should do the trick.
If it's happening while using a non-stock Launcher, download a 4G toggle widget and remember to toggle off upon reboot.

Yeah the box is unchecked. And I haven't had this issue until I started using launcher pro. Don't know if that's what's causing the issue. Just noticed it started at that point. No matter how I reboot the phone it always comes on at boot now. And I am sure that it is turned off on shut down.

I have the same issue! While it's not a big deal, it is annoying. I don't have a custom launcher and I'm still on the stock ROM. I noticed it once I downloaded Power Control Plus and put a widget on that controlled the 4G. Do you have Power Control Plus installed as well?

No. On stock Rom. Oc'd to 1.8ghz. Running launcher pro for a launcher and themed with dreamlyfe and widgetsoid.
Edit: have a switched setup through widgetsoid. Gonna remove that and see if it helps. Has a 4g switch on it so maybe that's whats doing it.

Just removed the switcher widget and rebooted. No change. Still turns on my 4g antenna on reboot. Really annoying.

same thing happens to me and im on the stock rom just rooted.

There's gotta be a solution to this. We need some code junkies, devs. What's up?

i have used launcher pro for over 5 months now and have never had the issue with my evo or the epic. did you go through all the settings from preferences when you hit the menu key?

Went through the menu with no settings for connections. I've used launcher pro before and have never had issues like this. I don't think the launcher is the issue.

I am on the stock Rom and this started happening to me when I installed beautiful widgets which comes with a 4G toggle. Even if I don't use the toggle or put it on any of my home screens beautiful widgets still causes my 4G to turn on after a reboot.

Me too. And I just flashed a fresh Rom and didn't have the same issue. I will try removing beautiful widgets and see what happens.

Whenever you turn off 4g, do it by going into menu-settings-wireless settings. If you turn it off using beautiful widgets that's when you will encounter this problem. This happens in the evo.

Ok now I'm back on my stock Rom and am not having a problem. Just restored from nandroid. Don't know what the difference is but maybe try backing up, wiping and then restore...?

I turned it off at the widget and in the settings menu. They had the same effect. But as I said above not having that issue at the moment. Will do a couple of reboots and see what happens.

Did multiple reboots since last night and I haven't had any issues with 4g coming on at boot when it was off on shutdown. Don't know if what I did fixed the issue. Or how it did it. For everyone having the same issue try making a nandroid backup, wiping everything, then restore. I actually flashed a Rom, decided I didn't like it and restored back. Try that and post results.

Do you have beautiful widgets installed now? If that's the only app causing it then we know the issue.

I do have beautiful widgets installed. Has been the whole time. If that was the cause, wouldn't that carry over when restored? The only thing I changed before the last backup was removing the switcher widget. Made a backup after that right before flashing the new Rom. Didn't like it. Restored back. Problem gone. Maybe a write error or something regarding the widget?

Downloads tab in market?

I just launched the market and, instead the third tab reading "Tmobile", it says "downloads". I'm running stock, rooted, and ADW. Anyone else seeing this? Not that it's bad of course, it's an improvement! But it's weird.

Still says T-Mobile for me... Did you flash Eugene's Vibrant ROM? Although you say stock, I know that Eugene modified it to say Downloads again.
No, that's what's weird - after rooting, I didn't do anything other than backup and delete a few apps with Titanium. I'm a noob to rooting and everything, so I only deleted a very few safe apps, too - Telenav and one or two other things. Don't remember exactly what I deleted, but nothing sexy that might cause my phone problems, bloatware only. I thought it might be b/c I had updates waiting, but it's still the same. Weird.
Now it says "T-Mobile" again. Very weird.
Mine goes back and fourth between "Download" and "T-Mobile." Don't really understand why, but I can't complain.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Mine seems to switch depending on whether I have a connection with t-mobile, at my home it's intermittent at best. Sometimes also, to save battery with my poor cell signal, I put the phone in airplane mode and turn on wi-fi, it's always the download button when I have it set that way.

All browser's closing?

Every web browser I use closes down intermittently....what gives? Is one better than the rest? Anyone having this same problem?

Did you remember to add them to the ignore list on your task killer?

Yeah they are added...I keep trying to go to netflix.com and ir loss the page but immediately goes back to my desktop...frustrating it never did this before

I'd highly recommend a factory reset and no task killers after that. They can cause screwy stuff like this to happen. Are you rooted and if so, what ROM/customizations are you using. There might be something there that is causing the issue. Most people who did a stock 2.2 upgrade had a similar issue. Something wasn't playing well after the update. Factory reset fixed it right up.

Auto rotate problem

My auto rotate has stopped working. Only way to go to landscape is by opening the keyboard. I suspect one of the sensors may be at fault. Raging thunder was much easier to play when it was working now the turning is sort of sporadic. I tried reflashing to no avail. Anyone have any ideas? I have to take my epic to sprint because the left side of my screen is lifting so ill mention that while I'm at it. In the meantime is there anything I can do on my own?

Try the following: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=926098, you also may want to try toggling the auto rotation box in the settings, and reboot your phone
Also, if your taking it into sprint, you may want to restore your phone back to the stock rom and recovery first, if it isn't already.
Also if you're using a custom launcher make sure the rotation settings on that don't conflict with the original settings. Sometimes you gotta turn the custom launcher's settings off.

Ive seen the opposite with launcher pro,you need to have both enabled for it to work...

removed .......
My screen is starting to lift on the left side as well. I've dropped my phone once or twice; but they weren't long/hard drops. Maybe this is why?
my left side screen was slightly raised from day 1 out of the box.
Yea it really sucks. Luckily sprint is awesome enough to fix or replace my phone at the service center near me as long as I'm paying for the insurance... and as long as they can prove that I didn't do the damage to it. I can't stand the screen lift more than I can stand the auto rotate. It scares me lol

Alright little update.
I got tired of stock di18 after going back to it experiencing lag on every 2.2 rom I tried. Just flashed the new midnight rom and NOW everything is.zippy as help with no lag. Just so happens my autorotate works now. Did the autorotate lag fix and now its perfect. Might I add gps works perfectly too.
...finally my epic is now finally epic. 1100/2000 in smartbench. That numbers rounded I don't remember the exact figure but point is I luv these devs!

Not sure if this was mentioned, but if you do the auto rotate lagfix: sensorcalibutil_yamaha method, and you get "failed" results, you can go to data/system and delete (or rename):
Ms3c_yamaha.cfg
(I renamed it to ms3c_yamaha.bak)
Then reboot, use the sensorcalibutil_yamaha method again, the cfg file will have been recreated, and it should work.

CM7 Issue

Ever since I try'd I RMK's sense 3.0 release and flashing back to CM7 (I wiped EVERYTHING) i boot in to CM7 and find that some of my native android apps are just gone, these include phone, contacts and some others. All of my music apps would just F/C and said they couldn't read the SD card even though my file managers could. my gallery also would not work. It would just just say "there are no items in my collection". The first thing I try'd to do was to go into ROM manager and fix permission. It did its job but all the same apps would force close and the phone still couldn't read the SD card. The only thing i could think to do next was to download and re-install CM7(stable release 7.0.2) through Rom Manager. But the downloads kept failing. But this is another problem. to even download the rom i had to be connected to Wi-Fi and i was in a room i never have signal issues in... EVER. Only to realize that it wasn't the room giving be bad reception, something else is and I don't know what it could be. I have never flashed a different radio, ever. My data shouldn't be throttled because i have unlimited data and i never got a message saying my data was going to be throttled like I hear everyone else getting. I have also recently (last night) discovered my phone must of stopped getting widgets... when i try to add a widget, for the app elixir, it just doesnt show up. yet other apps like setCPU show up just fine. I have never had problems like this with CM7!! Someone please, if you can help with any of these problems, lemme know!
Today i've been using Virtous Fusion and after some testing i did super wipe and flashed CM7 #65. Zero problems.
Have you tried to use super wipe?

If you are having problems, boot into CWM and reflash the rom right over what you are running. It will backup the apps and everything for you and you will be back up and running in under a half hour.
You might want to try this before doing that though:
Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All
Scroll down to Youtube and select it. Hit "Clear Data" and then exit out and try Youtube again.
Are you running stock or a custom ROM? It has been so long since I have run stock that I wouldn't be able to help you out with that. I am currently running SyndicateROM Frozen. It's sold as a rock, fast, and I can go days without rebooting.
Getting the same EXACT issue as the OP. Running stock and rooted EC05. I think it started recently with the latest YouTube update. It didn't do that when I first got EC05.
Yes, me too. Stock EC05. I also noticed that the video camera and stock video player stop working when the youtube app fails.

Have you considered trying a custom ROM? I tried the scenario you described and didn't have a problem. I am running SyndicateROM Frozen, but there are others to choose from.
Just a thought.
Thanks, I'm sure that would help but I don't want to root.
I read the reviews in the Market for our current version of YouTube and apparently a lot of other users on different phones are getting the same problem. Many 1 star reviews lately because of it. As I stated earlier, this didn't start occurring until recently, which I attribute to the latest upgrade of the app.
Mine is the inability for the phone to roam on the PCS band. Really Samsung? Fix the bug!
Yes, this happened a lot to me when I was running EC05. So annoying.
Sounds like it's an EC05 bug. I refuse to power cycle 3 times a day for luxurious mutimedia. My Flash works, that's all I need. But wait, now the same error occurs when checking Voicemail, taking video, using the stock player... what's next? But I will not power cycle.

I think the Youtube glitch was due to a problem Google was having. If you've noticed, Gmail also had an insane lag and fail to send rate during that time too. Might actually just be Google servers.
I had the same issue but it stopped after so long and I'm back to normal.
I tried a fix I read in another thread and it seems to work. Uninstall the official twitter app and use another like tweetcaster. I have power cycled and haven't had that youtube problem anymore. Don't know why that worked.

Unmount your SD card and Mount it back again and that will fix the youtube app. I don't know why it fixes this problem for me. Let me know if it worked for you.
The only rom this happens to me on is ec05 plus.
