I just flashed MikShift v 1.1 onto my shift last night, restored my apps with TB and then left the phone to do its sync with facebook contacts and whatnot. But to my surprise, when I woke up this morning the phone was still syncing but I only have about 4 contact pictures. I was on my home wifi network but I don't know if that would make a difference. Does anyone have a solution to this?
Try rebooting the phone. Had an issue similar to this a while back. Rebooting the phone solved it.
Try
1) removing and readding the account
2) run fix permissions from clockwork/rom manager
3) If that doesn't work then reflash.
I came on here to ask about excessive syncing as well, but I'm running the stock ROM on an unmodified EVO Shift. I am having issues with the sync icon in the notification area blinking on and off constantly. I have rebooted the phone multiple times and it has not helped.

Yes, I froze anything FriendStream using TB.
My wifi Xoom, using EOS 155, hasnt been able to connect to google's servers in several days. everything else works fine.... browsing, the amazon app store app, irc, etc. But the wifi icon won't turn blue, and when I try to goto the Andriod market it says it can't connect. gmail seems fine... just sent an email to another account and got the reply....
If i go into settings and look under accounts, everything that I have setup to sync says its doing it.... I just can't access the market and the wifi icon is grey.
This happens no matter where I'm at... my house, my friends and family, work, etc. So I know it can't be the network I'm connect to. I haven't made any changes to any settings in a while.... so unless something changed without me doing it....
I've power cycled it numerous times... both rebooting and turning it off completely and then back on again.
Anyone have any ideas what might be the problem???
Thanks

Strange problem... been using EOS for months now and have not had a similar connection issue. Only problem I had connecting to Google site and Application store occurred when I move to Google 2-way authentication and had to setup the security properly.
Did you have this same problem using an earlier version of EOS? When upgrading to EOS 155 did you do a wipe or clean your dalvik and cache? I would try a full system wipe and reflash the ROM. Sometimes it is easier to redo it from scratch then track down a particular issue.
I've never had any issues with any version of EOS, and I've been using them since night 1. And I had 155 installed since it was released... and this issue just happened a week or two ago. So nothing should have changed on my xoom.... unless it was done by some application or something. (And I'm the only user of the device)
I've tried stopping and clearing the cache on the google play app.... which I found the suggestion on another site... but that didn't do anything.
I had this happen before, but it normally just required a rebooting of the tablet, and it would then connect again.
I wish there was something like on windows with the event viewer.... cause I have no idea what the problem is. The error message when I try to connect to the storeis RH-01.
I'm going to install EOS4... but I wanted to wait a day or three until they have a chance to find/correct any early bugs.
I've also been getting error messages about google+... which I never had before. I'll just be doing anything.... browsing, using tweetcaster, playing music, etc and a error msg about google+ pops up.
Could not figure out what the issue was.... I just installed EOS nightly 160.. and everything is back to normal. I don't know if it was a Xoom issue or EOS issue... esp. considering everything was working fine on the nightly I was on for weeks... then all the sudden it stopped.
Reinstalling all my apps...
Simple solution: reflash gapps package.
Lol it's really that simple, I had the same issues as well, but on CM roms.

I've had a similar issue.. but resolved it with simply removing/deleting the remembered networks and re connecting them. This could be an artifact of my network setup with both the router and a wireless extender being visible from my location.. and once in a while it seems to confuse the connected systems.
Of course if I learned to leave my working systems alone.. they might not 'break' so often. but it is just too much fun to play:silly:

Oh well... I should have just tried reflashing everything... but I figured I would move on to 4.2 soon anyway... which I like (4.2) but it's a bit laggy on my xoom compared to 155.
You have to make sure you flash the correct gapps version with the ROMs. 4.2 nightlies require the packages named as follows: gapps-jb-201301##-EOS-XOOM-ONLY.zip be flashed together at the same time. EOS ROM 155 gets flashed with gapps-jb-20120802-eos-signed.zip.

I've had 2 random reboots today, both while doing absolutely nothing......... if I called into VZW to get a replacement, it would likely be new, right?
Nevermind, called VZW, they said I could just turn it in for a new phone within the 14 days. Yay.
Do you have chrome beta installed?

Nope, just standard Chrome as factory installed.
Going to go pick up another unit later today. Wondering if there are any other programs that screw this phone up......

That's why I asked.
NiLS? I had several reboots with that app. Removed it and no reboots for the last two days.

What's NiLS? I returned it and got a brand new replacement. The new one seems a bit more snappier and no reboots yet. I headed off the automatic re-installation of all my backed up apps by turning off mobile data shortly after I got it. Once I got errors on all of them I manually added the apps I really needed.
Seems like it worked... lopped Nova launcher on it and a cool icon pack... all is cool.

It's a app from Play Store. Obviously, something else caused reboots for you. I'm glad that everything worked out great for you.

I had the same problem today. It happened when I got a text. It rebooted like 3 times one after another. Then it just stopped. Weird.....
Anyone any ideas? I have the T-Mobile version. NOT ROOTED
another update
ok so maybe some good news here. i've been testing all day, locking/unlocking my phone and some normal random things to simulate activity. i have had zero reboot issues since i did a factory reset and zero reboots since i updated the gmail app.
HOWEVER.... the very minute i added the gmail widget to the locks creen i noticed that the widget said it was loading but didn't finish. my screen locked itself (as it should) because i wasn't touching it. So I double tapped the screen, scrolled to the gmail widget and it still said it was loading... then I unlocked it and BAM, rebooted.
after the phone rebooted i went to look at the gmail widget on my lockscreen before unlocking. everything is loaded. then when i tried to unlock the phone (im using a pattern unlock BTW) it rebooted again. Just now I removed the gmail widget from the lock screen and now I can get into my phone.
I hope this helps everyone else who is having the unlock reboot issue.
I just got LG G2 yesterday from Vodafone and today it just restarted 3 time and i think every time animation was 2 times i don't know why and i am sure the restarting started after i added gmail widget on Lock screen but now i removed the widget and now i am waiting can someone suggest a simple and permanent solution...plz
Running 4.4.4. Think this started after the 4.4 update. Sometimes Chrome works fine, other times the page refuses to load. The blue line under the URL starts to go from left to right; gets about 1/10th of the way, then just stops. The blue line goes away (finishes loading?) and the page is blank. I uninstall the Chrome updates and go back to the original Nexus 4 Chrome, and it works fine. Later, I'll update Chrome, and it works fine. Then, a few days later, the freezing starts all over again.
Any help? Or, should I just give up on Chrome on the Nexus 4? This only happens on my Nexus 4; not other devices and not even on my wife's Nexus 4.
Not facing this issue personally. If there was any way this error could be reproduced, maybe we would be able to help you.
I have the same problem, started before 4.4.4 using Chrome and chrome beta.

Hi all, I have a problem with Chrome. I'm using galaxy s5 and whenever I open the browser for the first time I get the message: Unable to access the network, but once I refresh the page it loads everything as it should. How do I fix it without having to constantly keep chrome in the RAM. Thanks

Same blank page issue here....a quick Google shows many others having this issue too. So far all of the remedies on googles forums are worthless.
Hi guys,
I flashed 5.0 over the weekend and the .33/84 hybrid modem to enable LTE. I also made Google Search my home launcher.
The issue is screen becomes black, just showing the status bar and navigation bar. The system bar and navigation buttons are responsive and i can access the notification drawer/system panel but tapping on them does not remove the black screen. The only way to fix it appears to be a reboot. It started out intermittently but now it's happening within just a few minutes of each reboot.
I've tried clearing cache partition from (stock) recovery but it doesn't seem to have helped.
Thanks in advance!
The pattern I've started to notice is that it happens when I get some sort of popup. For instance I use handcent for SMS and half the timeI get a text I end up getting the black screen. I just got a Facebook message and I'd imagine the little circle that shows up on the screen caused it this time.
I've gotten the black screen a couple of times over the last few days since installing 5.0 using the factory image. All that can be seen are the navigation and status bars and there is no touch screen response at all, only a reboot solves the issue. I never saw this happen at all before upgrading.
Have you tried using the .33/1.04 Hybrid modems? I have been using them since they released and never had this happen when using Messenger or Textra and getting pop-ups.

I haven't tried that modem. I've even returned back to the stock modem that came with the 5.0 image and am still having the same issue. Do you have a link to the .33/1.04 modem? Thanks

Honestly, if it does that with the stock modems, I would reflash the factory images clean, then use this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/general/4-4-3-nexus-4-lte-lte-tethering-hotspot-t2416822

Just reflashed 5.0 and seems to be going okay so far (haven't seen the issue). Is it okay to just flash the hybrid modem without using the rest of the LTE enabler? I don't mind having to manually select the network after every reboot...

Yes, this is still happening and I'm just using the stock modem(not hybrid). I've also reflashed the factory image 3 times. I get the black screen at least once a day, sometimes only icons or folders or widgets disappear.
Im struggling with the same problem.
Stock 5.0 google image / With some other kernels / Even tried recent Rastapop. - Wiped System/cache/data, didnt help.
Also i have problem with connecting phones storage via USB. I can Barely access internal storage thru computer.
possible solution
Since I deactivated the app called "Tasker" my phone works just fine again... Plus that I deinstalled two other apps that required superuser rights.
Hope that helps others.
Still having this issue, even on 5.0.1 any ideas?
Okay I *think* I may have figured out the problem. I think it has to do with apps that try to enable/disable the lockscreen. I had Settings Profiles set to disable/enable my lockscreen based on location. I've just removed that setting and so far it looks like the problem may be gone.
I don't think this is a modem issue. If you Google "lollipop black screen" you'll get quite a few hits. I remember reading something last week about this bug affecting lollipop builds.
I'd say stick with the modem that makes you happy :good:
Stock modem and rooted on 5.0.1 and I have the same issue. In my case it is not random and only occurs specifically when I dial the phone from the Avast Mobile Security website (There is a test mode to call the phone). Not sure how they dial into the phone but the screen goes black with only the notification bar on top and navigation buttons on bottom. The notification bar works but the navigation buttons do nothing until the incoming phone call ends, at which time everything returns back to normal. Regular incoming phone calls do not exhibit this behavior. Now if I access the phone from the Avast website by entering a text message instead of a phone call, a pop-up appears on my phone along with my message, but it does not cause the screen to go black.

Hum, sounds like it could be what I am experiencing...possibly a pop-up interfering with the phone call screen.
EDIT: (SOLVED). After contacting Avast via their forum, it turns out that they are doing this on purpose. It is supposed to prevent a thief from ending the call, although that is as simple as restarting the device.
