Stuck in switching to airplanemode - Galaxy 3 General

Yesterday evening I was trying to switch to airplanemode when I got stuck. (i used the power menu). Now my phone shows I have still connection with the provider but when I tried to call it got stuck in that call wich I can't end. I can't switch to airplanemode, it just doesn't do anything when I try. Please help me to find a way to solve this without rebooting my phone (i have also a problem with scanning my apps). Help would be appreciated.

which ROM are you using??

You mean to say without rebooting or reflashing?
Cause rebooting would have probably solved the problem.

Yeah i rebooted my phone and like a miracle it finally scanned my apps!

YouTube Not connecting Problems

Hey Everyone,
I currently running Artemis_v100_WWE_210_23563 on my HD2, everything is going great except the YouTube app. Every time i try to play a video it seems to state "Connection failed. Please try again." only while I'm connect to wifi. Seems to work with my EDGE though for a little while and then it keeps showing that message. I've noticed if i hard reset my phone, it works amazingly for a good hour and then, if i trigger the wifi off, and use EDGE it starts causing issues, and when i try to re-enable wifi and use YouTube, it fails and never work again. Every time i hard reset the phone it seems to solve the problem for a little while, and then it goes back to the usual message.
I did not install anything on the phone when this occurred, and also turned off my network and only had wifi and its not working. It will work for a while like i stated with no network off immediately after i hard reset my phone but after i turn off the wifi and turn it back on it doesn't seem to work.
My internet and all other things work on the phone perfectly fine. Has anyone encountered this issue?
Current YouTube Version is 2.6
Anyone got any ideas?
anyone got any ideas yet? i update and downgraded my rom and installed the new rom V11 and still occurs, works for only a little while and now it doesnt
my does the same thing i want to know why too

I had this same problem... I had to delete a proxy registry entry for it to work correctly! I forget which one... Do a search for it and you should find it here in the forums...

Turning "Flight mode" on at random times

Hello everyone!
I'm new here and found this forum while trying to solve my Galaxy 3 problem.
It turns on "Flight mode" at random times or even turns off phone and asks for PIN code then (device does not restart or turn off, just phone). First I tried uninstaling added aplications (all from Android Market) but it didn't help, then I tried closing unneeded aplications with task manager and it didn't help, and in the end I did a hard reset and the problem continued.
So I wanted to ask if anyone knows if this is something that can be fixed "at home" or should I take my phone to the authorised dealer and service shop to check it out (it is under warranty).
Thank you for all your help!
If you have not yet rooted or flashed the phone, I would suggest taking it back to the service shop..have not seen such behaviour in mine or other devices.
Have you tried to reset the phone ?

The phone is not flashed, I have it for 2 weeks and just installed a few aplications.

Yes, it didn't help.
Yesterday I deleted my data connection (GRPS/3G) settings and it didn't happen until today I configured data connection again and it happened half an hour later, so it may be because of the faulty settings. They are provided by the mobile service carrier so I will first contact them and see if they are aware of the problem.

First of all wrong forum, either put this in the phiremod thread, or in general or somewhere else besides development, Do not make a thread in Development unless you are developing something.
Second of all, did you load anything new before you went to sleep, did you make any changes?
Hardware rarely just stops working....
Airplane mode. Check that out.

I had this happen to me twice with CM7, the only way I was ever able to fix it was by doing a full wipe and re-flashing the rom. It was not pleasant but it was the only thing that consistently fixed the problem. To make it a little less painful in the future try using the My Backup Root app from the market.

Hey nemith, thanks and thanks for all the great work you've done and are doing!
Yes, I know Airplane mode is broken, perhaps I should have been more elaborate in response to the OP in asking him to "Check that out.", meaning search. I'm guessing he inadvertently touched the setting and spazzed his wifi and if he had spent a sec to search wi-fi problems he would have found his answer and perhaps dug into settings.db and fixed it.
Then again, it might be easier for him to just re-flash.
I've had the exact same problem with CM7 stable 7.0.2.
Although it automagically disappeared when I deleted my remembered networks and all available networks showed up then.
thanks it got fix by its self then it came back after another week when i turned off wifi to save battery then i tried the airplane mode thing and then came back and it worked agian so ill just not ever turn off my wifi and get that my back up root incase i have to re flash CM7
I seem to be having the same issue with my NC, I just recovered into clockworkmod, fixed permissions, wiped the cache, then wiped the dalvik cache, then went into my wifi, "forgot" a hotspot and that solved it. It started scanning again; No reinstalling or rerooting required.

Freezes overnight with my I9505 Galaxy S4

Hi Guys,
i got freezes when i charge it overnight (its connected to the original charger the whole night). I only can do a hard reset to use my device again because the touch-screen doesnt work then. This is very annoying because i use my device with Alarm to get up in the morning.
I already did a few clean installs (Cyanogenod Snapshots and Danvdh's Google Edition), wiped all caches and formated all data and caches aswell. I still got freezes. I get them from waking up my device (mostly in the morning between 5-6 am). All i see is a exclamation mark when i turn on the display. Then its frozen and i cant anything.
I already tried a few Modems and Kernels to test, but still freezes...
I use Modem I9505XXUGNK4 atm.
Any ideas ??? I really Need help with this !!!
Thanks

Have you tried the new 5.0 gpe from danvh? There was an issue with the charging animation and reboots.
yes, i got Dan's 5.0 gpe at the moment 12.17.2014
Dumb question, did you clear /system in between flashes as well?
Yes, i formated System and Cache + i wiped everything too
You should flash the latest stock firmware and see if the issue persists. If yes, try a different charger. If the problem still persists, I think it's a hardware problem. Probably battery or motherboard.
The Problem is only between 5-6 am. The whole day i got no Problems Should be a Problem with my Router maybe ?
i got no resets in my Settings there. maybe my Provider is doing a reset every day between 5-6 am and my device freezes then. i could try airplane mode too to test, right ?
I bought a new charger and battery today (both original). Maybe thats the problem.
i got News guys, i turned off wifi overnight an didnt plugged the charger to my device this night. No freeze !!! Yay !!!
So it only could be, charger, battery or Wifi, right ?
ok, i had a freeze at work a while ago. but i got no wifi or charger there... now i dont know what to do
Does it behave like this?:
You pick up the phone (it is in deepsleep),try to turn the screen on,it goes on,you try to unlock the screen and it just stops reacting to anything and turns the screen off after 20-30seconds?

i had the same problem,the only way to get rid of it is to send it in/get the motherboard replaced.this is faulty hardware,not a software problem
Damn, but i already got know activated. i dont get one for free Its about 1 and a half year old. The problem was solved a few snapshots form cm earlier and its only between 5-6 am. do you think its really a mainboard problem ?

can`t help you with that,hope you have luck and fix it
Same problem
Hy people, i have the same problem, but is not a specific hour when it freez, yesterday i picked up the phone and when i unlocked the screen, it freezed, but i don.t wait 30sec, i just lock/unlock it again and it work fine. The other problem was overheating..
and randomly restarting but i think i fixed it with a factory reset. What i want to tell now is that i installed "Root booster" before all these problemsc ocured. After it played with the kernel, do you all thing it might not restored the original settings? My phone is randomly heating sice i installed that **** on it...(even if i do factory reset)
Ps: i have a stock kernel/gt_505
Or the battery is guilty? It's draing pretty fast, after a day of use i put it to charge
(Solved)

Hy, i haved the same problem, but what i did yesterday solved that. I hope this steps will help you:
1. Enter in Recovery Mode and select wipe data/factory reset
2. Clear cache partition
3. Go in Settings/More/App Manager and search for Touchwiz Home
4. Force stop then Clear data
5. Withouth exit from settings, restart your phone
6. When phone is on, screen will be black and will ask you witch program you wanna use, select Touchwiz home then press "always"
After this steps, i solved the problem for my phone, but another thing i done after that is delete all knox files with Titanium backup.
I hope this steps myght help you.
Thanks guys, but i got a nexus 5 now. Bye Samsung. Thanks anyway for help.

Unable to turn WIFI On.

Hi there, I had my phone for about 5 or 6 months where it was fine till recently.
The problem was that I am unable to turn the wifi on. in the main settings the slider is greyed out and a text is on screen saying turning on WIFI but it does not. it does not even show the list of networks. it quick settings it shows as searching but nothing is listed.
in the about phone settings it shows the mac address to be 02:00:00:00:00:00.
This occurred a few days ago but no new software was installed the most recent being a week before to the April security update.
I have tried multiple things such as turning on the airplane mode then off, switching phone on or off, safe mode, factory reset, wiping the cache, taking the sim out.
There has been instances where I am able to connect to a wifi network but it does not last long (few mins) except when taking the sim out which lasted about half a day. (tried again but did not work)
My phone is not rooted and has the stock rom.
There has been some research on this matter where people have done something with the presist(I think that is what it is call) folder but there was no result on it so I have not tried it due to wanted to keep the phone unrooted due to warranty concerns.
I would love some solutions in figuring out this problem.
Thank you for your time.
