Many problems with 4.4.2 on Nexus 4

Hey guys, I've been having A LOT of issues with the new updates. First the 4.4 and then the 4.4.2 that didn't solve a thing. I've installed them via OTA but after that i've already did:
- factory reset
- installed via fastboot 4.3, then updated via OTA to 4.4.2
- installed via fastboot 4.4, then updated via OTA to 4.4.2
- factory reset AGAIN - installed via fastboot 4.4.2.
I don't know what do to anymore! I can't take pictures because nexus just turns off the moment i take one. I can't install facebook, twitter or instagram and another random apps... And btw, is it normal that in 10 minutes the battery charges to 1% to 50%? i think i never noticed that...
BUT WHAT DO I DO? PLEASE HELP!
UPDATE:
This problem is solved, it was the battery. I've changed the screen recently and it needed a new battery too. Thanks to everyone that tried to help me

If you don't know how to use fastboot, use the Wugfresh toolkit, makes life very easy. It has the drivers, downloads recoveries, root files and the factory images. Really is easy with that.

Guys, like I said I used fastboot to install 4.4.2, it still didn't work. I followed this guide googlenexusforum.com/forum/nexus-4-roms/4046-guide-flash-stock-option-using-android-sdk-tools.html

Hey, guys, I haven't updated it to 4.4.2 yet cause my phone is rooted so I'm asking is it worth to go through all the process again? And if yes can anyone state the new features? ☺ thx a lot!

Looks like a hardware issue to me. Probably your battery is faulty... Could explain the shut downs and trying to use the camera usually drains more battery so again that could it be. Could you be more specific about the other errors that you get?

Hardware? It started to happen only when I updated the first time via OTA to 4.4.
I open the camera, I try to take a picture, the flash goes on and then the phone goes off. Sometimes I can turn it on and the battery it's the same, sometimes I can't turn it on without connecting to the charger because it goes off when I go to insert the PIN.
Well, after I understood that the problem was that apps, when I turned the WI-FI on, the phone immediately turned off after that I unistalled that apps and when I turned the WI-FI on I could go on Chrome and Play Store, and installed some apps (like n7 player) and everything was OK.
One time I installed Twitter and I used it for a bit and everything seemed fine but then I installed Facebook and the phone crashed again so I unistalled both. Same with Instagram.
I don't know how much more specific I can be... I really need help :s

it's not hardware. anyone who had this phone running pre 4.3 aosp will remember the camera issues and the clicking noises that went along with the focusing and then the reboots. the battery charging is also a widely experienced issue as well as going from a full charge to 50% in a few minutes. I'm getting the camera bug again on 4.4.2 hope a .3 build pops up soon to deal with it. I'm also 100% stock no root

exactly this is happening but on 4.4.2
BTW, when I'm charging the phone, none of this problems happens. I can install and use all apps and use the camera.

if I were having all those issues I'd try installing the Factory Image again or maybe try 4.4.1 and then use the OTA to update. BUT there is definitely some bugs in the latest KK release

I did all of that as I refered in the beggining... I will try to install 4.4.1 though, that was the only thing I didn't do, but I doubt it's gonna work, because installing 4.4 and 4.4.2 didn't solve a thing

sorry about the double post but there isn't the factory image for 4.4.1 here... https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#occamkot49h .
I tried to flash 4.4.2 following this guide http://rirozizo.blogspot.pt/2013/11/guide-how-to-flash-factory-images-from.html and when I turned it on I had no signal.. what does that mean? I guess it didn't worked..

The latest factory images are 4.4.2, that's why you didn't see 4.4.1 on Google's server. When you flash factory images, your radio will also be updated. When you flash a custom ROM, your radio doesn't get updated, that's why you had problem with cell signal. Or flash the appropriate radio for the ROM.

The phone asked me to insert PIN and then I had cell signal again.. Should I flash 4.4.2 again flashing the radio too? Because I have the feeling that this will not solve my problem. Like I said in the beggining I followed another guide to flash my phone, and in that guide it said to flash radio and "bootloader-mako..." (not sure what that is) and the cell signal problem still happened and then I couldnt install Facebook or Twitter or had my location on or using the camera without the phone turning off or rebooting...
EDIT: The phone just turned off when updating Google apps, so yeah... Didn't work :s

You said that when a PIN is input, the phone has signal again which means it's not a radio issue. Did you set up a PIN in the security section in your phone?

No this is just something that started to happen along with the other problems... Sometimes the phone loses signal for no reason and goes to the PIN input screen.

Which radio are you using? It should be .98 if you are on KitKat 4.4.2. You can flash a standalone radio zip file in recovery.

loss vibrat in i9500

Hello every one ...I got new problem in my new phone s4 i9500 ..suddenly loss vibrat touch during using the phone in custom rom ...I flash sokp at first custom rom and got that issue then flash hassan rom based on stock at first flash the issue present but flash it again and then work after that flashed aicp rom and after some days today the vibrat gone even in recovery mode ...what can be the problem ? My phone still new 1month ago ..can it be from kernal philiz ?? Thanks for any suggestion

any suggestion or throw my phone from window ......software or hardware problem ?????

Hi Ammar,
I think your problem is in software. If I were you, I install cwm or twrp recovery, do all wipes including system, preload and internal memory, then flash the latest official firmware with Odin. If problem stands still, I do all wipes agaün and install the latest official firmware again. Even if this is does not work then I decide the problem is hardware based.

Well I cant comment on what went wrong.
I was on slim rom once and my vibration Intensity was tooo too low. Because of that was missing calls.
Or you can download an app for checking vibration. Once my proximity sensor and speaker stopped working, i ran a test and everything was back to normal.
Try test you android from the playstore and see if that test works.
Well here is the app
But again as I said, let us know if this is happening on the stock rom.

Once my Wi-Fi stopped working on a Cyanogenmod based rom. I flased stock firmware many times but it didn't work. Then I installed cwm recovery and do all wipes then it worked. As you understand, such wierd things might happen sometimes that we couldn't understand.

i sent my phone to company and told me that vibrate engine is broken and they change it and now work good but what is the problem that caused this i dont know exactly ...as they said either by drop the phone or by water but non of these happend with my new phone
thanks guys for help

One simple question.
The builds from aospa are 4.4 sources or 4.2?
Thanks in advance.

@houstonn was originally developing but stopped in June due to computer failures which is being resolved soon. His last build of 6/29 was on 4.4 sources and required the modem of stock 4.4.
The current builds supplied by @ayysir and now @jakew02 are on 4.2 sources which would require that specific modem.
Which ones exactly not sure as I am not familiar with every carrier version only sprint.

It has been stated in the ROM thread multiple times that you must use a 4.2 STOCK JB MODEM for best compatibility. Any other modems you guys use is solely at YOUR OWN DISCRETION. @MeestaAytch they should know what to use at this point but thanks for clarifying again for those who don't want to search before posting :highfive:

@jakew02 no problem. I know it's tiring repeating the same information but from what I've seen in my time using XDA.... It'll never change.
I'm glad you devs still continue doing what you're doing for us though knowing this nonsense goes on.

A few bugs
Hi,
The thread is too big for me to go thru it post by post so I'll just make a few questions and hopefully I'll get some answers. I flashed this ROM and it was working flawlessly. I only found very few bugs like not being able to set up multiple recurrent alarms because the app would freeze and there was another bug but I can't remember. The problem I find frustrating is with the text messages or SMSs. At first I was not receiving SMSs. Then I was receiving them but I couldn't send any. I returned back to stock VS98024a and I'm still having the same problem but at least I'm getting a pop-up when "General problems: cause code 96". I have googled this several times in several ways and can't seem to find a solution, not even on the Verizon site or help app on the phone. I need help with this please.

Please state exact filename and order of wipe/flash.

Just tried the test build for D802. Booted at LG logo for a while then screen turned black with 2 red lines and one green vertical line. I was so sure I was gonna get the permanent black lines but then again I read that the damaged screens are caused by already faulty hardware under high heat.
Anyways, I panicked and then I restarted the phone by pressing power + down. Then I got the weird boot sequence like everyone above describes and it boots into the OS. Thank God I got no black lines! However it wasn't stable for me as the phone rebooted itself twice within the span of 20 minutes. I'm going back to 13/10 build for now.

Any d802 users flashing latest twitter released rom can you please report here if jdi or lgd and whether or not weird logo appeared?
I'm on jdi and had weird logo appeared after clean flash. I did not let the rom boot and reflashed previous version without further problems

FYI, houston's latest works great so far on the VS980. Clean flash, using RenderKernel R24.

So i have the vs980 and i currently have xdabbebs rom on my phone, but i want to try PA. Can someone explain how to flash a rom over another rom, or is there something else i should do. i tried it once by flashing with twrp and it just hung on the lg sreen. luckily i had a back up

Migrating from one ROM to another is for me like this:
1. Nandroid backup
2. Wipe all except sdcard (yes, wipe system)
3. Flash new ROM
Be sure to always have a Nandroid backup!
And always check what baseband (aka radios or modem) your new ROM is requiring.
-___-
If you are UPDATING your current ROM, I.e. flashing a new build of let's say paranoid android, you can flash the updated file right on top of your old system. That is called DIRTY FLASHING and it's actually risky, so please, always do Nandroid backups!
-____-
Peace

Thank you for the reply. I tried doing it the way you suggested again and i get the same results. I wipe everything that is necessary and when i try to install the zip it immediately says failed

Ok
I would;
Update my custom recovery to the latest
Download recommended baseband, to be on the safe side
Redownload the ROM
Check the md5-checksum
Retry to install it
Flash the recommended baseband, better safe than sorry
Never give up
Peace

Hi guys i just flashed the newest build and out of all the roms i have flashed i have never seen this problem. After i flashed i have no sim service at all. Done a clean install still no good.

[H918] Random Reboots on Custom Roms

So, I had a day 1 v20 that began randomly rebooting back in december. Thought it was a hardware issue and finally got around to replacing it the other day. Now, after getting the replacement v20 set up on a custom rom (AICP) I'm seeing random reboots again. I've tried every single custom rom available for the h918 and they all experience reboots. When i've asked about the issue in the threads it seems as if I'm the only one. It appears to be a custom-rom only problem that apparently no one else is experiencing? The kernel panics are being caused by the modem, and it started happening when I upgraded to the 10j base. This replacement also came with 10j. Am I just super unlucky with two duds or is there really something going on here?
TLDR; Anyone else with a h918 with 10j bootloader/modem running custom roms and seeing random reboots?

What kernel do you use? If you use Konverged, it seems to give random reboots after a while of use. I noticed that right away though.

Have always left kernel stock.

Are you making sure that you are wiping data when flashing a rom? Clean install should help. What other things do you use? When does it crash? Maybe a root app is causing this???

This is a fresh replacement device with a clean rom install. There was no data to wipe. Happens even without any apps installed and it's completely random and cannot be reproduced. The only thing I know is the modem is causing the kernel panics.

The entire point here is that I don't want to run stock or anything based on stock. I would simply chalk it up to the Lineage base but since I'm one of a serious minority having this problem I'm led to believe it's something simpler that can be fixed. Possibly related to 10j as most custom ROM users are still running 10d firmware

Anything not based on stock will give you issues. One reason why I like stock based roms is because the second screen will actually work... I would atleast test a stock based rom to see how it goes. If it works and doesnt crash, Then something is wrong with the rom or your could be flashing it wrong :/ Idk, just an idea to test. Non stock roms will Always give you issues. Always
If you still have issues on a stock based rom, then I would downgrade with the kdz and try again. Its probably crashing since the modem is 10j and the rom isnt really fit for that.

I never used the second screen, it's more of a nuisance for me. Everything it did can be replaced by gestures and lockscreen settings on custom. Only thing I miss is notifications but that's why we have ambient display.
I might try downgrading to the 10i firmware to see what happens. Unfortunately there are no 10d flashables. Otherwise this ROM is flawless.

Not to shoot down your opinion, but why would you get it if the Second screen is a nuisance to you?? Im also pretty sure camera is screwed on custom roms.... I just dont have that appeal. Its better safe than sorry to check and see if a stock rom works fine than to downgrade and it still doesnt work :/ Idk thats my 2 cents

Not a Samsung fan. Especially with KNOX. I buy phones first based on the chances of development producing workable custom ROMs and second based on hardware features.
Back to the main topic: I just managed to flash the 10i modem alone so we'll see what happens. I'm working on extracting the 10d modem as well.

UPDATE: Flashing the 10i modem made no difference, still having random reboots (although they seem less frequent), I will try the 10d modem once I find a way to extract it from the TOT files posted on this forum.

So I tried 3 differents roms and all of them had the same issue and I can't fix it.
I tested with stock rom, stock kernel or blu spark kernel. I tried bliss rom and now I am using Codename Phoenix rom.
But I always have the same issue after going to Android Pie, my wifi get disconnected after a few minutes of screen off. My global wifi_sleep_policy is to always enabled but it is not working.
Does anyone have a fix for it?

For Pie custom roms you need pie firmware too, checked that?

I was using stock 9.0.4 before trying the custom ROMs. Wouldn't the firmware be automatically updated ?
I will have a look into that, maybe reflash the firmware.

The you have 9.0.4 firmware, but try to flash again. Also make sure it's not a custom kernel issue.

My current rom is Codename Phoenix, I tried about 3 different kernel to make sure is not a kernel related.
My current baseband is mpsss.at.2.0.c4.7-00070-8998_gen_pack-2.132073.1.179387.1
If I flash the firmware/modem from OOS 9.0.5, will it break something?

No it won't break something, you can try to update it, maybe it's running then for CNP rom

So I reflash the firmware+modem form this page

I flashed the 9.0.5 version, but the problem persist, after a few minutes of screen off the wifi just disconnect and I have to unlock and enter the app to receive the notifications.

I realized the problem is that for some reason whatsapp is being killed in the background even after I put it to not be battery optimized.
Will try to make it a sysapp to see if works

I fixed my wifi , it was caused by some new firmware installed in the router that had a bug that caused all my devices to disconnect when idle.
The new problem now is that my apps are being closed/killed after the screen is off for a few minutes I tried to turn off Baterry Optimization but it did not work.
If I put my phone to charge this behavior does not happen my phone does not kill the apps.

Thanks for the information. To help others you can mark the thread as [SOLVED] and add an info to the first post that it was your routers firmware and not the smartphone

After some time and a lot more of test I find out it wasnt my router firmware problem
The only thing that really solved the problem was installing this mod:

Thanks and this thread can be closed now.
