Problems with Navigator/Location - Desire HD General

Hi all,
I'm hoping someone can help me with a problem I'm having with the navigation program on my Desire HD. It keeps randomly starting prompting me to purchase that maps for the country I'm currently in, Uruguay. No matter how many times I hit cancel it still keeps coming back. Some times it happens so often that it makes the phone almost unusable.
I'm currently traveling abroad and don't want to flash or even reset the phone. The phone is currently unlocked and rooted running Android Revolution HD 6.1.5 with Sense 3.0. Any help would be great appreciated.

Same problem and phone stays on speaker everytime.

Are you using the same firmware?

To solve this, I've uninstalled every com.htc.laputa.* services using Titanium Backup.
You can also disable those services with this command :
Code:
pm disable com.htc.laputa
pm disable [service name here]
and reboot your phone.

Thanks just tried that, to soon to say if it worked. Should I reinstall them or just leave them uninstalled?

This issue gave me too many headaches to risk it to come back. It was so annoying...
Personally, I won't install those packages back. Anyway, I prefer Google Navigation over HTC Locations.

Apps Hang and dont donwload from Market

I am having this problem recently. I try to download any app or an update to any app. It will just sit at starting download and never download.
I am on Fresh ROM 1.0
I did update some apps after installing the ROM so that's not the problem.
I also have a problem that if I clear the cache, when I reboot Everything force and keeps force closing forever. Whats up with that? isn't the cache supposed to recompile on reboot?
I tried clearing the cache to fix the market issue to no avail (beacuse of all the force closes never got to see what happened after clearing cache). I tried clearing the cache from recovery and using Fresh's app installer,and both times tons of force closes.
Someone please HELP!
U probably need to login to gtalk. I had the same problem from using autostarts. Jus open the gtalk app, it will/should sign u in automatically.
this is not a gtalk issue. gtalk is not even related to what problem he has. i had it happen to me on my eris when i was playing around in the bootloader. when i started back up everything force closed and would not start. only sugetion i can give you on the force close it is a factory reset or ruu reset both will work. as far as downloads not starting are you rooted?
Yes, to install a custom ROM you need to be rooted. Tried the gtalk sing in to fix the Market issue and no dice. Still hanguing...
Anything else??

So I'm not going to call you out or something, but please read before you speak. Gtalk is MAJORLY tied in to the market and it is a documented fix from google themselves to try signing in to gtalk to fix stalled downloads.
Even though it doesn't work for everyone (depending on the reason it's stalled) it IS related.

Hundreds (maybe thousands?) of posts. Starting back in March and dating all the way until today. Google hasn't been able to resolve the issue. I can tell you that what has always worked for me is a combination of cancel download > disable wifi > disable mobile data > enable mobile data > try download again.
Didn't work? Reboot and repeat. Eventually it will go......
Thanks a lot flipz. I'll try that

95% of the time your second sugestion works. it may be that gtalk has major issues with stalled downloads but ussually i have this issue when i start my download over wifi for some reason it just never connect to the google server but when i kill the download and connect over 3G or Edge it works everytime on my G1. that's been a documented fix too. this issue only happens more frequently on custom roms than stock android roms. so it's more of a rom issue that googe issue. we're all here to help each other not trash talk each other. from my point of veiw gtalk may have some type of issue but it's more with the rom cooks than the app itself and it's not their fault either gtalk was desighned to work on googles cookie cutter os not on the home brew roms so errors happen you just have to know how to sweat talk your andoid to doing things when issues happen. the problem i had with your post was you only stated the gtalk issue when the wifi issue is more prevelent. i wasn't sure if he was on stock os or custom os so i asked about it. then i would have given him the instructions on turning off the the wifi, killing the downloads, and restarting the phone. like you told him to in the second post cause that seem to work better than the gtalk method.

sorry. i did not read your post clearly thought when you said fresh you ment fresh install. haven't really been keeping up with the hero roms to much and thier names still waiting for my eris to get it's turn at root. when i saw your post it just reminded me of how my rooted G1 would not start downloads over wifi. so i asked rooted or not just to be on the safe side.
the thing that got me a little heated was when he said "not to call you out" then he goes into a trist about how wifi seems to be the better fix.
by the way did you get your problem fixxed?

(Ok,fair enough it can be confusing when i wrote fresh; no worries).
About my problem: Not at all man, I tried every single one of the fixes and no luck. I am thinking about going back to stock and reflashing the custom ROM. I'll report back if/when/how it gets fixed

I ended up factory resetting and now everything downloads normally
So... apps were downloading perfect from market UNTIL I restored a nandroid backup. Afterwards, Apps hang again. I mean exactly after restoring, went to the market and the problem is there again. Can the problem be tied to restoring backups? Or just coincidence?
Update:
Got the downloads working after clearing the cache of every single google application on the phone as well as IM.
After this, started downloading the app and it still hung. Opened gtalk and exactly as it signed in it started downloading fine.
I tried the afore mentioned fixes and had no luck, so for anyone who has this issue and has not been able to resolve it, this is another workaround.
Just FYI to anyone still with problems, I had problems again today EXACTLY after restoring a backup again.
This post I quoted by Zippy-man did the trick today Great Help..

[Q] [HELP] Unfortunately, Direct pen input has stopped

Hello Guys,
At first i just flashed a N900 Pre-Root Deodex file using Odin, but after reboot a window popped out displaying," Unfortunately, Direct pen input has stopped." And it happened all the time as it keeps freezing my note 3 with all these windows & notice over & over again.
I really don't know how did i go wrong. So I tried to do factory reset, wipe cache & dalvik cache using CWM Recovery 6.0.3.8 but to no avail. The problems worsened as now multiple windows starts to freeze the screen with different notice such as now:
1. Unfortunately, Direct pen input has stopped
2. Unfortunately, Samsung keyboard has stopped
3. Unfortunately, Internet has stopped
4. Process system isn't responding
Do you want to close it
I checked into my download mode, it displayed CURRENT BINARY CUSTOM and SYSTEM STATUS CUSTOM ???
Please kindly advise, thanks in advance
[Sharing Info]
Problem is solved by flashing Stock ROM from same Asian Region here (WAN) because my original country's Stock ROM (XSE) isn't available yet.

Hello, Can you elaborate further what exactly did you do? I got the same problem now on my Note 3
Thanks in advance!
Check logcat for crashes!
I disabled / uninstalled as many system apps that appeared in my drawer as I could. One too many it seems and Messaging would crash each time I got a text.
Re-installed the app from backup and just hid it in my app draw (ADW Launcher EX)
The remedy is simply flash your original firmware using odin, then for rooting process i just flashed using CF-Auto Root File with same method

At my point of trouble that time, it was totally chaotic as the phone kept freezing with multiple error windows, and i could neither use the keyboard nor using the phone normally at all. It was quite relieving to know that i could still reboot into download mode that time, otherwise i would be stressful in vain till now.

I ran into this issue as well, when I started carelessly turning off all the services on my GN3 to free up memory. I narrowed down the issue to the process/service called "MyScript ResourceManager." If this is disabled/removed, you will get the Direct Pen input error. Make sure you don't disable/remove this process!!

Not sure what you mean by this. I'm having the same issue now. I tried to root using this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hg82AWA_lmI having no luck and failing on the first part. After that the phone wanted to be fixed via kies firmware; tried that with no success. I then tried these steps http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2525279 to recover. While in Odin, I was given a success message ONLY with the PIT. Everything else during, before and after fails. This results in me having to re-PIT every time.
So now the phone, even after a factory reset, is still showing the message

Your solution is the usual error/solution for most. I just found out that if you are using xposed - xprivacy module to limit permissions that when I recently installed samsung's "Watchon" TV and its helper app Media that I recieved a popup from xposed XPrivacy to set my policy on something of a long winded name like "1000 ANT HAL Service, Android System, Application installer, Assistant menu, BluetoothTest, Camera Test, Color adjustment, DgitalPenSdK, Direct pen input, EasyOneHand, Enterprise Sim Pin Service...." and it goes on and on. Apparently it's one of those deep shared system identifiers that the new apps added themselves to so when I took my usually cautious approach to limit some of the permissions I didn't have any errors immediately but upon reboot it all began. I naturally did a search and found your solution is the most common but seeing as it wasn't a solution for myself I had to dig deeper. Anyhow, if anybody else is in my position with that particular error and it relates to xprivacy just know that you can begin releasing permissions rather than unrestricted for that mass identifier, or just use "clear" so that it is totally unchecked and the FC of Direct Pen Input will go away immediately.

reflash stock, or do a factory reset. that worked for me.

Ok Google not working

Since updating my firmware to G900FXXU1ANE2_G900FOXA1ANE2_BTU my google ok voice command is not working even in the Google Now app, everything is switched on to recognise voice. Im not sure it is the update that has caused this, can anyone confirm this? Im on the Galaxy SM900F international latest firmware. Thinking of going back to original firmware if this is the case.
Could be a bug, is the app up to date? Try going into application manager, go to all, find google search and press it. Clear Cache and clear data and reset it to factory or if possible uninstall (if uninstalling don't worry about cache or data) then reinstall or update depending on your situation.

I am running the phoenix rom. I always use the s voice rather than Google itself but Google search does work. If you're root you could remove the app completely with "root app delete" then download it off Google play again? If it's a bug with the firmware then it should be patched very quickly.
Got it working again not sure how or why tried turning a few Google now settings off then back on again seems to be working fine now was strange so maybe it is a bug thanks for your input Gareth. Ive usually flashed omega roms in the past (S3) but with the phone been so fast root has been good enough for now

[Q] Unfortunately, Samsung Hub has stopped!!!!!

Hello guys,
In advance, thank you for your time and help. Here's the deal. I am fairly new to the rooting business. I did a root using Towel Root. I had everything correct on my phone( regarding Super SU). I started messing around with Wan am Exposed and some other rooted apps. Long story short I did something do take auto rotate off of my phone completely unless it was forced through(as it is in the Netflix app.) I started to back everything up with the intent to just completely reset everything and start fresh. Well when I did that, I now get the Unfortunately, Samsung Hub has stopped working. It literally pops up again once I hit OK. It is making my phone completely unusable. I believe I may need to re-flash my binaries but I am not 100% sure. SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP!!! :crying:

I have the same problem and it is extremely frustrating because the popup never goes away, it keeps popping back up making the phone useless. I managed to get it to quit by rebooting several times but eventually it comes back. I have rooted the phone with Towelroot but I don't think that is the problem. I have not changed any of the factory apps but I did install and then uninstall a couple of apps that I didn't want. I've read about this problem on other forums so I know others are also experiencing this problem. Hopefully someone with come up with a solution soon.

I think I found an easier way using Titanium Backup. I found Samsung Hub in the list, clicked on it and then hit the highlighted Restore button. It is probably too early to tell if that fixed the problem. If it comes back I will post here.
---------- Post added at 06:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:31 PM ----------
Since I started having the Samsung Hub problem, my screen does not rotate. I've looked at everything I can think of to change that back to auto rotate. No luck and I'm assuming it is related to the Samsung Hub problem. Restoring Samsung Hub with Titanium Backup did not fix the problem. So either the auto rotate problem is not related or restore did not work. Anybody know how to get my phone to Auto-Rotate again?

Ok the problem is back.
I tried to uninstall SoftCard and the instant it started uninstalling that app, the "Unfortunately Samsung..etc." came back with continuous loops. I rebooted and now Softcard in downloading from play store??? And the Samsung loops are continuing. I am going to take the battery out and see if that will stop the looping. That worked in the past. This is getting frustrating
I know im kind of late but I figured it out. I updated my Samsung Hub app and it fixed that issue. Unfortantly my phone stopped reconizing my gmail aka i could not use my play store. It kept saying that I needed to check with AT&T to add data to my account, although I know for a fact I have data( I am on the unlomited data plan). Even connected to wi-fi I recived this error. To fix that issue I re-flashed my stock binaries. VHOLA!! All of my headachs were gone.

Just for future reference and my 2ยข, I personally think restoring apps is bad practice. For the exact reason you had to reflash. Especially ones that you can just download again, then change a few settings.
Thanks for the info. I've restored the Samsung Hub app a couple of times now and I don't seem to be having anymore problems. If it happens again I will update the app from Play Store

Random reboots. Up to 15 a day

My Mi A1 keeps rebooting every half hour or so. There is no specific app or process that I can point a finger to. It just freezes momentarily and reboots. It's extremely frustrating. Has anyone experienced this with the phone? I have not rooted or anything. I think the issue is more so after the September security patch.

I haven't experienced this. You should backup your data and factory reset. If the issue persists you should contact the seller for a replacement.

Use Google backup for app data and settings and transfer files and photos onto your computer. Backing up your apps won't be possible without root unfortunately...

For apps apk can backup using Es file Explorer but not the data only the apk

My Mi A1 keeps rebooting every half hour or so. There is no specific app or process that I can point a finger to. It just freezes momentarily and reboots. It's extremely frustrating. Has anyone experienced this with the phone? I have not rooted or anything. I think the issue is more so after the September security patch.

Hi, I managed to isolate the problem to a specific SIM card in a specific location. As per my understanding, this is something to do with corrupt packets of data being transmitted via your network provider through a specific site (or several sites), which causes a reboot of your device. To isolate the problem do the following:
1. Switch off any one SIM card from Settings > Sim Cards
2. Monitor your phone for issues.
3. If the issue is replicated, switch on the SIM card switched off in '1' above and switch off the other SIM.
4. Monitor your phone for issues.
This should be able to identify the corrupt SIM. At this point, I permanently switched off the trouble SIM while at work (which was where the reboots kept occurring) and the phone started working normally without any reboots. I would switch on the trouble SIM in other areas and it did not cause any issues. A week later, I decided to do a SIM replacement on the trouble SIM, and this has managed to reduce the number of reboots to once a week, which I can live with.
Hope this helps!

Same here mate. Phone reboots 20+ times per day. I tried to do factory reset over 10 times, fastboot ROM flash. Nothing helps. Apps crashes, Chrome "Woops", Phone rebooting. This was last time, when I bought Xiaomi phone.

i have found the problem finally bro, the culprit is chrome webview.
to fix this -
enable developer settings and turn on "multiprocess webview"
disable Chrome and then go to playstore and search for "android webview" update the app and the reboot problem will be gone

Thanks for this. But still "not working" . I disabled Chrome and updated Android webview. But I want to use Chrome for the internet, since my account is linked to everything. So as soon as I enabled Chrome again, problems came back. And WHY THE F**K THEY WON'T ALLOW US TO SWITCH BETWEEN CHROME AND ANDROID WEBVIEW?
Anytips?
Thanks in advance
if u have parallel space uninstall it

Thanks for the tip, but still no luck =(
So I cleaned and reflashed everything with MiFlash. 2 days now, still no problems, I'll keep here updated if any thing shows up.
Another problem is that I still didn't get Feb security patch. Tried everything! Did a factory reset, became beta tester of play services and cleared framework data and cache but still nothing! But

Guess I'll have to go with that, unfortunately.
I wanted to keep my bootloader locked so I don't see that annoying message of unlocked bootloader.
I finally got Feb update patch but I'm still having reboot problems.
Starting to think I have a defective phone since this problem was solved in almost every case I saw =(
