Hi guys, I have two issues that I really need your help with...
1, since installing ICS all of my apps that I download save in my Applications screen and my Home screen, how can I stop them saving in my home screen?
2, since buying the phone I have always seen the message ERROR!: I/O No Root Permissions.. does anyone know what this means and how I rectify it???
thanks
James

S-Pan problems
So this is really annoying, looks like there is a problem with the s-pen with galaxy tools i'm having the "action memo" as well as Scrapbook failing on me. The auto-desk sketchbook works fine.The S Note also fails once you draw something and than click the back button.
I hope that the KITKAT glitch and they will fix with an update since I'm running the Stock with root.
Also had various samsung apps consistently force closing on me. it was quite frustrating.
the only solution that worked was a factory reset.
problems like these are an inevitable side effect of computer technology, and there is nothing we can do to prevent them.
instead, reset and move on

You mean just factory reset ? Or a total wipe and loosing the root.

I meant simply factory reset. Whether you will lose root or not depending on your setup.
If you are running a custom rom, you most likely will not lose root.
Well i don't know if it was just luck but i made it work...I open Action note WITHOUT the pen (with my finger) and it worked!!! After that it's working normaly with the pen. Try that and tell me if it works.

Thanks for the sugestion, didn't work in my case tho.
And people stop telling to factory reset, its not a solution.
I've been having this problem for a while now, and tried several things.
Restoring apps didnt work.
I am rooted tho, but didnt change much stuff.
So i'd love to see a solution, as i dont want to factory reset (and go trought the burden of getting everything back like i want it). And have to factory reset again when it happens again.
Is there anyway to find out what has actualy stopped working, as i can replicate this in command.
Action memo
Like others, my Action Memo stopped working. I found my old memos stored as jpg in a device folder, actionmemo. They can be viewed and deleted but not modified. At least they weren't lost. I tried soft rest, pulling the battery, and every tip suggested on this site and other sites. I was at least able to use S-note for a while.
I mistakenly assumed that Samsung must have replaced the app with S-note after the update. After a week the Action Memo app returned without any action on my part.
By the next post after this one I realize this site apparently doesn't want posts from regular users so I will not post again. Suggestions from the pros didn't help me. Time for an apparent automatic update was probably the solution.

Thanks for trying to help.
But please stop posting this nonsence on all the forums.
It is NOT true. Both apps are still on the phone!
BTW you have also been told multiple times its not true (on difrent topics).
Have seen some possible solutions on difrent forums.
- Theres 1 were someone explaines he brought his phone to a Samsung-rep, and they uninstalled some software which made it work.
- Others do have succes after factory reset.
- Or launching S-note without the S-pen works for some.
- I have yet to try deleting S-pen application files. But that might be an solution too altho i havent seen anyone having succes with it.
- Have also seen someone with succes after battery pull and reinsterting SIM and SD card.
If anyone else has some suggestions lets collect them here. Lurking trough difrent forums is just a pain.
Go to settings -> application manger -> disabled find there (myscript resources manger) then enable it then restart your phone
This what works for me let me know if for you work.
Hi,
I have the Samsung Galaxy 3 gt-19300.
Problem:
- When I close apps. this is how I do it:
1. I press the middle button.
2. I then swipe the app so it closes.
BUT the main problem is, it is still running in the background (using ,ram,battery,etc)....
why is this?. is it because of the way I am closing it???
thank you.
Just to let you know this is the wrong section. This is the Sprint Variant of the Samsung Galaxy s4.

Hi fellow devs nd members of xda,
I have got problems with my Galaxy S4.. The sview is flashing throughout my screen without any S-Cover or any magnetic material. This happens randomly.. So I need to disable the s-view service and associated files.
I have tried the following :
1. Disable s-view from system settings
2. Renamed and changed permission for system/app/sview service.apk
I heard from another developer to change the value from OPEN to CLOSE in hall_detect file located at sys/devices/virtual/sec/sec_key. But I can't write into the file or rename the file.. The only thing I can do is change the permissions, but that doesn't help..
Does anyone have any idea how this sview works. It's become annoying when I play movies or games on my S4..
Many thanks
AJ

After KitKat update I guess! Didn't had this problem in JB. Deleted SecView apk and seems to be fine so far though ?

If you're rooted you could try the xposed modules, there's one in there that disables S-View.
I will edit this post if I find the specifics.

Install Xposed from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
Install my module http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/public/Android/Xposed/DisableSView.apk
It's as close as you can get without disabling the sensor. I didn't hook into the phone so that might still show the S-View window, but that's no biggie. Also, the Smart Stay icon disappears, but hey, that can be a plus

Have you ever figured out how to turn off S-view magnet sensor? I have the same problem with a magnetic car mount and it's very annoying.

Well people say just by removing the L1 screw in our phones under the back, the issue gets resolved.
There is one screw name L1 just under our cover.

First Thanks for uploading your files but sadly I think I broke something because I geting only a black screen with statusbar at the top even when I paste in your files back in and this happens since I accidentally delete my. (before that black screen with time, date and so on)
I found no process or app or autostart that contains "s view" or something like that. How did find it and how was it named ?

Okay I understand. My problem is I can't find it (screenshot) there mainly I broke it somehow but do you know if there is any way to install a app back into touchwiz framework because when I try to install that apk it fails.

You saved my ass, thanks for that. After getting root and so on I tried to follow your instructions. The App was there and I stopped it but needed only one tap (clicked once ->Force Stop) and then stick it on the phone holder but again the S View Cover Screen comes on (with time/date and status bar). I have no clue what to do now because I can't deactivate the app even.
EDIT: When I deactivate the app per third party app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.SystemCleanup.Inteks.org) the black screen comes on without time and date. So there is any other process that start when a magnet comes close to the S4 ?

Does your dock have something magnetic??
A magnet triggers that stupid sview.
Use any custom rom that doesnot have sview. It shall get solved.

Yes, of course the holder has magnets too so yeah I know its triggering that view but I thought that view could be fully disabled without a custom rom.
A custom rom is no solve for me right now.
The Question would be how the S View got removed in the roms then I could do the same for my stock rom.
Found out that the Hall Sensor triggers that but found nothing to disable or something like that.
Hi, I'm currently using DroidWall and have switched to whitelist rather than blacklisting apps..
now, I'm having issues with whatsapp.. although I have selected it on DroidWall to enable internet access, I do not receive any messages until I actually open whatsapp before it starts downloading.
To me, this appears to be a background/sync issue.. but I just cannot figure out what else I need to give internet access to so that messages get downloaded
any help??
ps.. i have searched, but couldnt find any thread under Galaxy s4 that mentions Droidwall/whatsapp issue
pps.. newbie here.. nice to meet u all

Hi, did you enable DHCP+DNS Service and (NTP) and Download manager?
Are you sure that this is an issue caused by Droidwall?

You can try the app Af wall+ there you have a more detailed list of apps. It is a firewall also.
I will show you my list, maybe it helps and WhatsApp is working fine to me.
