That S-View cover screen. that should work only with this hardware feature. by covering light sensor you get this screen, try to disable this function in settings, but normally that looks like bug.

Thank you man, I was going crazy ahahah
more it can not be a hardware problem? because I thought that this function of the S-View only work on the samsung stock ROM or am I wrong? and I used the Google Edition 4.3 rom and never activated this option.
Thank you so much.
I looked about and found some people with this problem, but could not find any solution, I find strange because I never used any S-View cover, and option in settings did not work . If I try to change the rom you guys think the problem is solved?
Thanks
try to factory reset first, if that will not a solution, then try other rom. I hope that will help with your problem.

hi all,
I've a problem with my htc touch, it doesn't won't to start !
everytime i turn it on it turns off right before the HTC welcome screen comes !
any idea what is that ? or how can i flash another rom ?
*it's fully charged
*my rom is Touch_of HD lite 3.0
Thanks
Hi,
Did you flash a new rom or something recently? How old is your battery? If possible....try changing the battery and giving it another shot.
it's a new battery about 2 months or something
yes this is a new rom i flashed it yesterday !
Thanks for your quick response

Hmmm...there you go. That seems to be the problem. Perhaps you'd want to go back to the thread from where you downloaded the rom and check to see if anyone else has had similar problems on their device. Or maybe try to get in touch with the person that cooked it. You can PM them or something. I'm sorry but beyond this....I cant tell you what to do....I've never flashed a rom on my device. Still learning Perhaps someone else on this forum can guide you.
Good Luck
Thank you but i don't think the rom is the problem,
I entered the boot loader and tried flashing 2 different roms and the same thing happens right before the HTC welcome screen "the animated picture where HTC logo appears" the device turns of !
so what is that !!!!
any help please
mine like the fridge!
For troubleshooting, try to cool it in the fridge for some minutes before you turn it on. If this helps, then I have no idea what causes the fault! But you are one step closer by knowing if its a hw or sw issue
If this helps, then I have no idea what causes the fault!

lool
I tried what you said but didn't work too !
I think it might be the RAM or something .. what do you think ?
could be
I've red somewhere that its a RISC controller in the Elf. If so; it contains a RAM itself. So even tough I'm not a specialist on this things I belive that it could be a internal fault in the RISC or the multiplexer to the external RAM or the RAM itself. These things are all a motherboard issue that needs a replacement - in other words a new phone!
If its a SW problem it should work fine with the orignial ROM. On this field I shall keep my mouth shutt 'cus I know nothing about phone/smartphones!! I do think you should make it to the bootleg whit any ROM.. I belive!
have you tried to hard reset
1) Simultaneous press and hold "Power" and "Camera" key.
2) Press "Reset" once with the stylus and then release all keys.
Yes I've tried hard reseting !

That's a relief
Have you tried flashing one of the original roms onto your device? If not....give that shot. You'll find a list of all original shipped roms on the wiki.
I'm not sure
If the mailfunction started after you ROM-flashing "upgrade", then its more likely that its the software. But I know nothing about software on this things or what the symptom may be if theres a missmatch on the phone configuration/model and ROM.
guys I've tried everything even original roms
I think i've to change the board !
Thank you all

If you have tried various roms and a factory reset but to no avail it sounds like you have a hardware issue with the camera. A return for a replacement would therefore be your only option. It's easy to prove given the fact it's easily reproduced, take it back to the shop and open the camera, they should replace the handset no questions asked. They certainly would here in the UK anyway.

you might have to send it still to the service center and get your camera replaced, but you will have to pay a hefty price for that

if you store your photos on sd card...may be your sd card is corrupted, that's why camera fails.
Try a different sd card

I.m with exactly the same situation here. Even tried direct cover. Same a noting problem. Could it be the same thing that sammy did with kk a while ago ?
N9005 32GB here. With original Samsung S-View Cover. Working perfectly with Lollipop update.
please take note, 3rd party / fake S-view cover will not work with Lollipop update.

I don't know if this is the RIGHT thing to do but I had exactly the same problem and after a lot of reading I bumped into someone complaining about the "deep sleep" feature.
I used titanium to froze one process called "Unified Daemon 140911.01". After that I didn't have any problems with my unofficiall SView cover and the battery life was greatly extended.
Again, I'm not an expert and honestly I don't have a clue about the process I mentioned but, so far, I didn't have any issues with my Aryamod 5.1
I hope it helps !

Hi,
So i noticed my vibration had stopped working shorty after install a CM 12 Nightly rom, but i cant put my finger on the exact point when it stopped working ( i recently sent my phone off for a screen repair and am unsure as to whether it worked when i got it back). Anyway, i tried everything I could think of software wise, tinkered with settings, installed a stock rom via ODIN etc, but i couldn't seem to get it to work. So i figured it must've been a hardware problem, but after changing out the vibrator motor I'm still not getting any feedback. Anyone know what the issue could be?
Thanks in advance

to see if is hardware or software the problem
Hi guys, I've got a Note 4 N910F which I've just fitted a new screen to for my mate, I flashed the official firmware this morning, and the s-pen was been working great, but now removal or insertion are not being detected, I've just flashed the Emotion custom rom, and that has made no difference either, the S-pen works, i can write with it and control apps etc it just wont detect when I remove or insert it, any idea what the problem could be please anyone
You could try to download these app " Note Buddy (S Pen Helper) " , but i dont know if it work because i have not try it yet. Let me know.

My first thoughts exactly, I'd assume it hardware if it doesn't work after a clean wipe or flash.
i have seen many used note 4s in the market that had the same issue, its a hardware problem. when you take out the spen the commands dont show up.
It's not that big of a problem. You can activate the commands menu by clicking the S Pen instead.
I'm pretty convinced that it is the internal sensor on the phone that is faulty, but can't find any info as to where it is on the mainboard, or how it works, does anyone have any ideas or info please
