All accounts randomly dissappear repeatedly - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3

So this has been happening since I got the phone. I rooted and flashed MiniN3 rom (AWESOME) the next day so I can't confirm if it's sprint, my phone, my rom, an app?
It's not a huge deal but sucks having to add my accounts I have 5 and 3 are for business that I need to see real time so I have to immediately go in and add them. Sometimes happens upon boot. Sometimes randomly I will just pick it up and says I need to set up a backup account.
Any help appreciated, thanks

Google Music Only Allowing 4 Deactivations Per Year

I read today on Pulse that Google music is only allowing 4 device de-activations per year. What that means for us every were installing a new rom and using Google music, most of the time its seeing our device as a new device because of a new rom. They are only allowing 10 devices and once you get that full you have to deactivate one to add your new rom....I changed my rom 3 times last week alone.
Anybody have an idea about a work around for this?
This was just an FYI for anybody that didn't know.

As fast as it sucks, it gets better.
Google changes mind about device deactivations
Unofficially NOTEd
It's like using a banking app, back up data in tibu and you won't need "re-install" or activate the phone again. If I backup my banking app and restore it, I don't need to verify my device.
What if they tracked the deactivated devices and only allow 4 re-activations per year?
What if...
Let's wait to see what they decide to do. They are trying to figure it all out right now.
For a very limited time, google is allowing you to deactivate all your old devices while they upgrade their system. Good luck guys

That's only if/when you restore apps WITH DATA, which is generally not a good idea when you're switching out roms and kernels.

HTC launcher has to reload after exiting apps! Please help!

Is anyone else having this issue? Whenever I exit an app and go to the home screen, I have to wait for the home screen to load up again. EVERY TIME!
Could it be the stock task manager closing the launcher? Also can I put it on the ignore list, because I didn't see an option for that.
If anyone knows how to get rid of this inconvenience, please let me know. Thanks.

That used to happen on my EVO Shift all the time after gingerbread was released. Decreasing the number of widgets helped back then. Hopefully this is an issue that will be addressed as I have seen it mentioned a couple times.
To fix it on the Shift if you were rooted you could download an app called AutoKiller Memory Optimizer and change some setting. I can't remember since all the custom roms I used made the change. Maybe it would work in this case as well. I think the memory management section is what helped. The presets HTC uses are aggressive I think and kill off the Launcher to free up more memory before it's really needed. The app isn't really a task killer but more of an app you can use to tweak the point at which the phone starts freeing up memory.
It's happened to me after using the phone for a while. Noticed this after WiFi at home is not connected and been using the world's fastest way to get frustrated, using 3g service. What I've done is restart the phone and works excelent. Don't think that's he right answer but it's been working.

there is a fix for this in the one x forums somewhere. you have to modify and recompile some system files if you are rooted. I am not rooted, and I hate this. sense 4 is seriously hog-party sloppy
there is a way to fix it if you are rooted,
what you are doing in esense is keeping the launcher from being dropped in the menory and making it a pryority app
In terminal emulator:
type
Code:
su
Then type
Code:
echo ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1 >> /data/local.prop
and enter
Then reboot.

Problem started on my OG EVO a few months ago and was right back on the LTE. From reading the threads it looks like it is worse on the LTE for a lot of people. I did get a response from HTC to a Facebook post about this, they suggested I take out the battery and wait a bit then put it back in! LOL
What stopped me from going nuts about it and perhaps returning the phone was the Nova launcher which has stopped the problem completely.
Rooting and tweaking of course can solve it as well, but I'm wanting to hold off on that for a bit until we see if any major OTA will be coming out.

[Q] Skyraider not starting right

Gads. I've waited 2 years to root my phone and the first ROM I flash toasts it. I downloaded the Skyraider Zeus 1.3 and everything looked fine. When it rebooted, though, I realized I'm not able to do anything.
I slide the lock to get into the phone and I'm greeted by a dialog about in-call volume. All I can do is hit the Silent button and it switches between that and bluetooth volume. I can't figure out how to get past it so I can actually do anything.
Ideas?
ETA: Now I'm really sick to my stomach. I decided to restore from backup. Neither one of the backups I made prior to flashing are working.
Error while restoring /data!
WTF? Now I'm dead in the water.
4pm Update: I figured I have a brick now so I wiped data/factory reset, wiped cache. Now I'm trying to re-install Skyraider. I'm not holding my breath.
You're not bricked.
Go back into recovery...
Wipe data/factory reset 3x, wipe cache, and then wipe dalvik cache.
Flash the ROM.
You should be good.

Why would two different backups fail to restore? The first I did manually last night through Titanium. The second I did when I flashed through ROM Manager.
That's your problem using rom manager. Download 4ext in the play store and you wont have backup issues.

Will do. What a debacle it started out to be. I think I'm ok now. I got the ROM working and for some reason although I wasn't able to boot into recovery and restore I have been able to restore my apps and data through Titanium. I have to say buying the Pro license was worth not having to acknowledge each install. :laugh:
One thing I noticed is that I used to be able to slide the task bar down and have two options. Initially it was set with notifications but I could select a tab to make quick selections like enable/disable the hotspot, etc. I'll have to figure out why I only see notifications now. Maybe that's just part of the ROM behavior.

That's strange that you don't see the quick settings tab.
Usually after flashing a ROM through recovery, I flash it an extra time so that I know it gets all the files through.
I know when I flashed Gingeritis 3D, I couldn't get the music player to stop force closing when I changed the music sound effects. The only way to fix these issues and a few others was to flash it a couple more times, without wiping anything at all. Dirty flashes (not wiping) could possibly fix any issues as long as you haven't changed any of the ROMs settings or set up anything.

Nusense is actually on my list. These are what I was initially looking at trying:
Liquid Smooth AOKP
SkyRaider Zeus 1.3
NuSense
I think I'm like most Tbolt users that are tired of waiting for ICS. I wasn't sure about Nusense because I was believing that Sense was the source of a lot of my problems. However, SkyRaider (even though it's neither ICS nor Sense-less) is running considerably better. My phone was next to useless. It might take 1-2 min just for the stupid thing to dial a # once it was selected. I'd tell people if I ever needed 911 I'd be dead before it even dialed. I also had a lot of problems with messaging and general performance. So maybe it was just a bloatware problem that was dragging me into the mud.
Now that I'm having a positive experience with SR I think I'm going to make NuSense my next one. It looks very promising. I appreciate the warning and help to steer me clear.

Thanks. I'll give it a shot. I don't use Netflix much from the phone so that's not a deal breaker.
How is it with data? I flashed NuSense yesterday morning and flashed back to SkyRaider last night. I couldn't stay connected. The data drops were horrible. It was odd. I'd have the 3G/4G icon like I was connected but couldn't surf/email/etc. Then other times I'd lose the 3G/4G altogether. Sometimes resetting the mobile data would work and other times it would just laugh at me.
I guess I didn't give it much of a chance since it only lasted <12 hours but it was driving me nuts. Nothing like spending time with family and not being able to surf and escape.

Ugh. That's not good. SkyRaider has been rock solid on data. The only thing I've really run into is it seems flashing my apps with app2zip only works on some things. I end up having to re-flash Kindle, Lookout, and a few other apps once I'm up and running again.
I was really looking forward to ICS but not if data drops are the norm.

Note 2 newb just unlocked

Hi guys, I am very new to the Note 2. I just unlocked and rooted the latest ota using Casual. Thanks to Adam Outler and everyone else involved. So my question is which ROMs are compatible with this ota? Basic question I'm sure. I came from the Razr and the kernel had to match so I assume its the same here? Anyone willing to shed some light on this for me would be greatly appreciated.
Sent from my GT-P3100 using xda app-developers app
Any rom you want as long as it is in the VZW Note 2 threads can be flashed ours arent locked down by what update we are on because our bootloader is unlocked where it isnt on Moto phones. AOSP roms require AOSP kernels as TW roms require TW kernels. The roms come with kernels though so that isnt something tk worry about unless you I want to.
The only thing to remember is if you go to a 4.2 rom and want t I go back to 4.1 you have to flash a downgrade zip so your SD card doesnt become corrupted. You can find the downgrade zip in the Official CM 10.1 thread in the OP.
Check out Droidstyles guide in Android Development, its a sticky, it explains quite a bit and would ne helpful to you I think.

When it got to the end and said finish to reboot it just turned off and wouldnt turn back on. Couldn't get to recovery or download mode. I had to pull the battery and then turn it on. It went straight to the new ROM though without a hitch. Is that a normal part of the flashing procedure on the N2? The battery pull I mean, or did I miss something?

Thats not a normal thing to happen, but it does happen occasionally. As long as it boots up after the battery pull I wouldnt be too worried by it. I have had it happen to me before and after the battery pull I experienced no issues whatsoever.

CleanROM's good. It was the first ROM I flashed when I got my Note II too.
Eventually though, you may want to switch to something more feature-rich like Jelly Beans, which is what I'm rocking now. The features it adds are pretty awesome and you get full touchwiz functionality (S-Pen and the like) with the look of AOSP.
DL'ing Jelly Beans now. Gotta make a new TiBu before flashing though. Will give it a go shortly. My wife fusses at me sometimes cause on my old phone (Razr) and on this one I am always flashing different ROMs. She especially hates it when she calls and my phone goes directly to voicemail cause I am in recovery flashing a ROM or kernel.

Hi all, I'm feeling like a n00b on the Note too, and really appreciate the help all of you seem to be willing to share with each other. I'm not new to modding phones, recently I've been through an S3, DNA, RAZR HD and M, and even another Note 2. I made the mistake of swapping the Note 2 for an iPhone 5, and regretted it about thirty seconds later. Now that's my wife's phone, and due to the grace of another (local) xda member, I'm back rockin' the Note 2. This time around in looking forward to getting into some serious flashing and tweaking to get the most from the hardware. I've decided this is Verizon's best phone at the moment, with everything I need.
Don't worry, you're not alone in having a wife who gets annoyed at flashing and tweaking. Happens to me all the time, but I use the excuse it's one of the few hobbies that I have which doesn't involve the rest of the family and I need a bit of alone time. It kind of works as an excuse until the point where I need to use it again.
I'm looking forward to being part of this community and wanted to say hello.

I like jedi X rom...I got 3 days off my battery with just the right settings...my recommendation is to not mess with the per app dpi for the settings app because now I'm stuck without a settings app and about to switch roms...just about any rom will work as long as it's for your carrier... Best of luck!

DL'ing Jelly Beans now. Gotta make a new TiBu before flashing though. Will give it a go shortly. My wife fusses at me sometimes cause on my old phone (Razr) and on this one I am always flashing different ROMs. She especially hates it when she calls and my phone goes directly to voicemail cause I am in recovery flashing a ROM or kernel.

Beans is the best! photosphere camera (page 1 of forum) works great with build 16! Check it out! Also, I agree about Jedi: definitely magic battery settings. Enjoy your new hobby! My wife is the same way.
