Hey, something strange has been happening lately on my phone. My vibrate mode has been switching off and on randomly as well as my wifi. I do not have any apps installed that would change this setting automatically on it's own. Is there any way to see what app would have access to do this without uninstalling every one of my apps 1 by 1?
Go on appinfo. There is a list with permissions. Maybe u can find something

I just did a factory reset...mainly because I'm over the original excitement and wanted to get rid of any apps I don't really need...
Now when I turn on my gps it keeps showing in my notification bar that it's searching....I'm using the system app and I don't see any apps active that would be using it...it's really bothering me and I was just wondering why it might be searching??

I kind of noticed that also. I figured somehow if we kill all running app and I would receive a txt message some how att navigator would open itself. If my gps was on it would start searching.... Maybe you have the same o problem?

I noticed that as well, and I have no idea what was using it.
Did you turn "use wireless networks" back on in your location settings? I've found that if I don't, the GPS will keep trying to get a lock for any program that uses your location (weather widgets, etc) and won't be able to. So it will keep running and drain the battery really fast.
Hello, i have a problem with the time clock.
Every day i have to set the time, because it's late with about 4-5 minutes every 24 hours.
I didn't root the phone, i use Android 4.2.2
Could you help me, please ? Should i try to reset to factory settings, maybe ?
Any advices are welcome, thanks in advance
I can't find how to fix it.
Help me, please.
why don't use automatic settings, and the clock will sync with your mobile provider network every few minutes
Odp: time clock / question
So why don't you root your phone? If you have root you can use ClockSycn app which sets time automatically.

I did root the phone, i have now Xylon + Franco. I installed the app ClockSync, but it happent the same.
After about 20 hours it´s late with 3-4 minutes. Is there nothing i can do to fix this ?
Do you think the battery is the problem ?
Have you selected Auto date and time sync?

Do you mean, after i installed ClockSync ? Or just the Settings / Clock ?!
I did try to check / uncheck / under the Settings / Clock.
And i'm not connected to the internet 24 / 24 h, if you're talking about the ClockSync
Is it perhaps because you are set up to auto update time from your network? The phone ought to be able to keep time better than that. Maybe you network provider's time is off and your phone keeps syncing to their time after you correct it?

I try both ways.Set up to auto update time from network and without. Same story. There must be a way to fix this
But i don't know where to start. I would try to remove - insert the battery, but i think it's difficult to remove the battery and i'm not sure if that helps at all.
After I called someone, I got this bug that is bothering me when I have I unlock my phone .I think it has to do with the pandora app. Please help

I have the same issue and I'm trying to figure it out. I suppose we can help each other narrow it down. Are you able to reproduce this? So far I haven't figured out how to make it happen and thought it only happens randomly. The only way I figured out how to get rid of it is by pressing pause then unlocking the phone.
Next time you get this, post a list of running apps.
Last time this happened to me what I had running was:
Settings
Facebook
Messenger
MightyText
8tracks
Accuweather
Pandora
Media
ExchangeServices
GooglePlayServices
GoogleServices
Gmail
When I killed the MightyText app the lockscreen bug went away. You wouldn't happen to have MightyText on your phone, would you? Or something that syncs your SMS's and phonecalls to a tablet.
My suggestion is to recreate the bug then go through your Running Apps list one-by-one until you disable the app that is causing this.
Somehow it went away after I used the clean master

My phone randomly vibrates without any notifications or apps running. It only happens when the screen is off. and yes I know about the feature which vibrate if you have a notification once you touch the phone.
Sent from my SM-N900V using xda app-developers app
Where do you enable that feature?
I was gonna post a thread about this issue earlier today lol. Mine vibrates when ever I touch it. If it sits on the dresser or in my pocket for a bit and I go to grasp it, it will vibrate. I don't touch any buttons yet and it vibrates. I'm wondering if it's the smart stay feature using the camera to see movement.

It's hatching.

Mine randomly vibrates when I enable USB3 mode to move large files. It vibrates for a second at the start of the transfer and a few times (when different files are moving).

I know there is a feature when u pick up your phone, and there is some kind of notification waiting for you, the phone will vibrate. This is a feature that is built in to TouchWiz. There should be a setting to turn it off, but cant remember right now off the top of my head.

Thank you!!!!!!! This was driving me insaine since I reset my phone last week!
Use task manager
Press menu, go to task manager, RAM, clear memory.
That worked for me. It closes 9 programs.
:laugh:
Hey All,
All you have to do is ....
Go to TASK MANAGER app,
Go to the Downloaded tab from Task Manager
UNinstall Playstore.
That's all!
Vibrating due to Account Sync (Loop?)
For anyone still wondering:
It is because the phone is syncing up for some reason it doesn't stop syncing (Looping?)...
Best way around it:
Settings->Accounts and sync->Background Data/Auto Sync Turn Those off!
After a restart it should stop vibrating and get quite alot faster.
Sidenote:
Samsung Galaxy Pocket (GT-S5300) is the phone i that had the issues and got fixed this way.
just DELETE/UNINSTALL GOOGLE PLAY SERVICES "update"
-Pydro
FINAL SOLUTION!!!!
Please ignore all of the comments above and below, except for what MYFRED and mr08022001 Pydro said. That is the solution. Simply uninstall or delete Google Play Services, and do not reinstall ever again. This is what was causing the constant vibrating on the phone. Plus it also rendered useless the Play Store app, so no applications could be installed or updated. I thought I had lost my phone due to the constant vibrating. But MYFRED helped me save it. Thanks mate, you are a genius. Alfred
Hey everyone, I'm not sure what's going on but every time I hit the options button (the one with the three dots) the app I'm using force closes. Its not the one at the bottom but within the app itself. I tried to send an email and when trying to go to the options to forward etc it crashes and force closes every time. I have downloaded some things but I'm not sure if xposed installer and Wakelock terminator have anything to do with it but I'm about to factory reset my phone unless someone could shed some light on the issue.
Thanks!

Any apps or modifications that you have on your phone may be messing with it. I don't know all of the specifics but I know that after I got xposed a while ago, my lock button suddenly stopped working, and then continued after I uninstalled all of the modifications and xposed. I would only use a factory reset as a failsafe plan.

I'd just titanium backup and factory reset. Or if on a OTA and don't have root, FXZ back to your firmware using keep data or universal.

Reboot your device into safe mode. If it runs fine then you have a rogue app, but if you are experiencing the same problems then do a factory reset.
Safe Mode:
Code:
Power button > Press and hold Power Off > Ok
