Thanks for asking about this, My wife's GT-i9500 also has the same problem. It will FC when pressing start after entering all the relevant data. Clearing data and cache does not help. Device is stock, not rooted, firmware is XXUAMDE.
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
In thess end I just did a backup with TB and factory reset. All working fine now. That's as good a fix I can offer my friend but if anyone else knows more about it we would be very grateful.
Thanks

I was hoping to avoid a hard reset, I guess that's the only way of fixing it now. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks to all the posters, but I need help..

First of all, thanks to all the guys who post on here and develop some of these great ROMs. I bought a Note 3 online that had a custom rom installed and no backup. The phone turned on and off and didn't work properly. Just reading these forums helped somebody who knew nothing about this stuff to somebody who was able to install the verizon stock back onto the phone, then root it, install safestrap and install two custom roms (jelly beans and lite). The phone works great with the exception of the following: when using the camera lines appear on the screen and show up sometimes on the pictures, secondly my gps is a little off and doesn't see exactly where I'm at and doesn't work properly. This is the same on both roms I boot from. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.
Go back to stock and see if the problems persist. If so then it's the phone and not the rom.

The problem persists. I actually, read about disabling wifi and image stabilization and that's pretty much eliminated the lines when using the camera, but I can't figure out the issue with gps.
Download an app like gas status and see if that helps. Besides that just might be a defect.

Samsung keyboard on stock kitkat not working?

If I flash stock kitkat my Samsung keyboard won't work (force closes over and over).. I've no problems with any custom roms, on sweetrom now with no problem.. It's not a massive issue but it's annoying me! Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix it?
P. S- installing SwiftKey etc isn't fixing it..

You may need to do a full wipe when you flash stock, it's possible something has corrupted somewhere along the line.
Yeah I've tried all the usual tricks, re - downloaded stock from several places with no luck.. It's baffling me..

Format all your data in system via CWM - then reinstall your ROM from scratch, it'll fix any coruption issues. ->>> Important >>> Make sure you make/get a PIT file for your device before you change anything in case you need to sort your partitions out for a reflash
I'll give it a try thank_you...
Nope still got the same problem.. Must be some weird conflict with my phone that I can't pin down.. Like I say I'm on a custom rom anyway but it irritates me because I know it's still there...

How bizarre , I'd stick with the custom ROM for now just in case something else gets crazy corrupted - This Kitkat stuff atm is causing havoc all around.
Yeah I think you're right, maybe different batches of phones and buggy kitkat are causing problems for a few of us? It'll all get ironed out in the end hopefully..

I got the same problem. KitKat update failed in the end and had to CF_Root in order to boot up.
Action Memo (with pen) are not working for me as well. It is all linked with Handwiting somehow.
Is your Action Memo broken also ?
The only thing that I didn't do is Wipe Data/Factory Reset in Recovery mode.
Did you try that ?

got the same problem as yours, no idea why though, after the update samsung keyboard and action memo stopped working.
I think I will wipe it tomorrow but it seems it's not working either
I'm checking around and they say that problem probably lies in the application S Pen Keep, there is no data on this one ... I guess as you said it's linked to the handwriting recognition. tried to do that using Snote transform into text as well and it immediately stopped working as well..
For time being I'm using different keyboard and I like it better than stock one. I really don't want to wipe a phone. Takes so much time to install everything back.

Did u guys intentionally or unintentionally uninstalled Samsung apps? From what I've understand, certain Samsung apps needs to be either freeze thru TB or disable it...
Haven't touched it. I've upgraded to KitKat without updating a bootloader and it happened.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
same here, got the OTA update, after that it simply stopped working.. I don't need the keyboard .. I need the action memo more
Mine still isn't working, I'm on omega rom now so it doesn't affect me, but it still does it if I flash stock... Strange..
try to download another stock rom? maybe that will fix it.. if it did .. let us know... try to download the newest one that came up in Poland..
mine got fixed by formatting and wiping, re-download another stock rom I guess yours has some form of data missing ..
@Colide , just go back to factory settings , will resolve the issue, do it from the recovery of course.
I kinda hate it to wipe data. Lot of apps to reinstall. Thanks for a tip. ?

[Q] SPH-L720T Back to Stock but Google's Going Nuts

Hi,
I recently got my L720T flashed back to stock, and it was working fine until I logged into my Google account. Now, pop-ups from all the apps saying they unfortunately stopped keep coming up - so much that I can't even use my phone anymore.
Has anyone encountered this before? Was wondering if your guys know of a fix for this? This isn't a gapps flashing thing, right?
Note: It was only flashed to stock, nothing else ... does that mean it isn't rooted anymore?
I'm not sure if this has been asked before, and if it has, sorry for the duplicate thread and could you direct me to where the answer might be?
Thanks in advance.
Go into settings and to Google account andnwipe cache and data on it.

Change Selinux back to permissive
My setup was the Sprint Galaxy S4 SPH - L720 running Jellybean 4.3 NAE firmware. Long story short, I soft bricked my phone trying to upgrade to a Negaman's Rom & Kernal. Found the stock NAE firmware and flashed through Odin to get back running. Since i had already been rooted unbeknownst to me there was a new upgrade out. Now I'm running running Kitkat 4.4.2 NG2 firmware. I used to be able to use terminal and l the
pm disable com.sec.knox.seandroid
Commands to enable permission for use with my Pioneer Appradio 3.
But now SeLinux says enforcing and commands don't work. So that's my fault for not checking first. Now my question is, is can I roll back to Jellybean 4.3 or is there a Rom and/or Kernal that will change SeLinux from enforcing to permissive for the Sprint variant of the Galaxy S4 Sph-L720. I don't need a bunch of features, I just need to get back to permissive. I've seen similar for other GS4 variants, the GS5, & even the Note 3, just nothing for Sprint. Has development ceased for the Sprint GS4? Is all hope lost? Any suggestions or forum suggestions?

I had this Rom v4 installed for 3 days now. It runs smooth and fast. But at times the whole phone freezes up when I run certain applications like chrome, Firefox,or Facebook. I reboot it then happens again in 5 mins. I tired clearing the cache that didn't work really do much. I tried to uninstall the apps and reinstall them. Does anyone have an idea what would do that?

Are you running a custom kernel? If so flash this stock one https://www.dropbox.com/s/hk8o922goewzkws/Stock_NG2_Kernel.zip?dl=0 and it shouldn't do that anymore
My phone came with NG2. I figured it out a couple days ago. I just wiped my whole phone again did that for 5 times and flashed the Rom. My phone works perfect.

Same problem here. Go into settings/app manager and clear cache and data on the calendar
Does anyone else have this problem . The rom works great for about two weeks and then everything starts to fc and the phone reboots constantly? The only thing to fix is clean flash the rom every two weeks

Thank you very much! Worked like a charm!
Any screenshots? I had the other Sacs Kitkat v3 (Non-NG2 version) with S5 theming and it was great and stable. I just want to see how different is this newer version if anyone can share .

i dont have issue regarding this. after root i restored all my apps using TB. no force close so far. accept game hacker and all xposed apps.
I have same problem!
Any fix!
Seem no one care this topic . I have the same problem
There was an issue of fc last time on kitkat. There is an app called tb restore fixer in playstore to resolve that issue. Maybe you're using an older version of tb?
Sent from my SM-N9005
Could be, or maybe the restoration procedure is wrong. After a fresh ROM installation you can't/ shouldn't use the TB's Restore everything feature, you will have to use the restore missing apks only feature.
Just a Q , you upgraded your device from Kitkat to LP ? If so , that seems to be the issue.
Hi Y'all.
I just did the exact same thing. Restoring a KK backup on LP that is.
I've had maybe a handful of apps force close on me.
Removing and reinstalling fixes the issue.
I know - it isn't exactly what was intended, but a handful out of maybe 250 apps is still a huge time saver.
Regards
Elo.
