Android :: Endless Black Screen
Dec 2, 2009
I installed panda home just now and i get a black screen. I tried a battery pull, phone reset, etc. I cant get past the black screen. Is there any way I can boot in safe more or something? I literally cant use my phone, all I see is the task bar at the top and no buttons.

This was reported in the other thread about X8 Issues, but thought to start a new one to gather feedback from users. It's about the ''black screen'' freezing issue encountered by some users. I have had this several times since owning the phone for a few weeks, so it is a recurring issue. Problem: The phone hangs or appears to be shut down or become unresponsive suddenly. Pressing the hardware buttons doesn't help as the phone doesn't react at all. Solution: Take out cover and battery and restart.Observations: From my own observations, it's not actually a shutdown but a major freezing/hanging. Sometimes when it happens, I can still see vague shades of the display at an angle. After leaving the phone for a while in the pocket, the phone comes back to normal again. Not sure if this is true for all users with this problem. Anyway, gathering more feedback to see how prevalent the problem is, to evaluate whether I should take it to the SE service centre, or whether doing so will help at all.

I have a problem streaming live video files. When I stream a file say of duration 5 minutes, it stops after streaming 2 to 3 minutes and enters in to endless buffering state. The VideoViews's OnBufferingListener is endlessly executed, however it shows that the buffering is not progressing anymore : MediaPlayer's buffer says it has buffered for example 90% whereas when I call videoView.getBufferPercentage(), I get something very low, like 1% or 5% ... After a while in the buffering state, the application crashes. It seems like the buffering is taking all the memory.

My Galaxy S3
GT-I9300
Newest Firmware I9300XXUGNA5 / I9300DBTGNB1 (DBT)
16 GB
NOT rooted / original ROM and absolutely unmodified
is restarting all the time and so caught in a bootloop. Most of the time it restarts when reaching the PIN or Code screen, sometimes I mange to enter the code and can see the desktop for some seconds. Then it restarts, endlessly until I remove the battery. Most of the time it directly restarts in the bootlop when putting in the battery, but sometimes not and this way the recovery and download mode can be accessed.
I need my phone and some data on my phone so urgently (unfortunately some are directly on the phone).
What I tried:
- remove battery for hours
- load battery for a long time (over night)
- recovery mode -> delete cache
- starting with / without SIM
- starting with / without SD card
- managed to activate flight mode within seconds in loop
- used other battery
- flashed original firmware with Odin two times (4.3, I9300XXUGNA5)
But ... It restarts again and again. I really want to avoid a complete reset due to the fact that there is really important data on the phone and in addition some really unique photos. I don't think that there is a hardware defect since the hone sometimes starts untill it reaches the main screen.
Possible reason: I use "HD Widgets" and there are some widgets on the main screen. When I manage to see the main screen for some seconds I can see the widgets loading (emty spaces with progress bar). I use this app fore some time but maybe there was an udate causing problems. Maybe this app or others are the trigger.

1) After I make a call, the screen goes black in a matter of seconds. I'm typically using a headset when I notice this. To end the call (or enter numbers in a call menu) I need to press the sleep button to get the screen to light up again. This is a pain in the a$$.I have the screen timeout set for 2 mins.
2) About once or twice a day the home screen will lock where I can't press anything. I need to reboot to fix.

My PreferenceActivity contains a nested PreferenceScreen in another PreferenceScreen and I'm applying a theme to my PrefenceActivity that changes the background color. However when I open the nested PreferenceScreen I get a black background and I cannot see the options.This happens with android 2.1 , but it does not happen with android 1.6.Any ideas on how this can be corrected?

I have seen some others having this problem, but they talk about it being a glitch associated with tower switching? But I think my endless reboot loop is due to heat. I did not have this problem until 2.2. I can just be surfing the web or running any simple app and the phone gets really hot and bam. reboot...reboot..reboot. Have to pull the battery to stop it.
After reading a few other threads, I did the factory reset nd even completely cleaned my external card. I installed all my apps again. Then I used the web browser for about 5 minutes and ..... reboot loop.
Anyone else having this problem? I guess I am just going to have to go to verizon and get a refurb, but then I might also get an SLCD huh? Am I really going to tell the difference between those two screens? Will verizon only replace my phone with another incredible? I am just sick of this reboot thing and don't know what else to do.

Can anyone confirm the fact that webview is broken in the 1.5 sdk? Either that, or update the code page on the google developer side as neither that code nor any other (including my previously working webview code) is showing anything but a blank black screen.

in my app, I came into an Activity from the pre Activity's UI (such as:click a TextView which has added OnClickListener), like this way, after several times, I came into a deeper Activity. I left it for a while (such as left away) , when I came back ,I returned the Activity before the last Activity. then I got a black screen.

I have T-mobile touch with android on it. I want to use Barcode scanner, but when i turn it on, the screen is black, and all i see is that red line on the center. It's like my camera is not turning on. I also tried on my cousins phone (exactly the same) and the Barcode scanner app worked fine. I tried many times all over again but the problem is the same everytime. BTW when i try to take photo my camera is working fine.

There is an activity which fetches xml data from the network, parses it and displays it in the UI. When the user clicks on any of the link or button on the screen I call startActivity with new Intent object of the same activity. I do this to have the activity on the history stack. Previously I just called setContentView of the activity without starting the activity again, but with this I cannot have the previous page in the history stack.Now the problem is - each screen normally takes up to 20 seconds to fetch content, parse and display. when the startActivity is called the screen becomes black until the next UI is rendered. I wanted to keep the previous screen showing until the next page loads.Please tell me 1. Is there a way to do this? 2. Is it good to start the activity again for each page. If not how to have the previous page in the history stack so that I can use the Android's back button.

I have a listview that when you click on an item it will take you to a WebView that displays some static formatted text associated with that list entry.
I had it all working with a TextView but I wanted to be able to use HTML formatting for the text and figured the WebView was the way to go. Right now it is just supposed to display a generic link for testing purposes but when the viewContent intent starts it just goes to a black screen. I can go back and pick another entry and it also just shows the black screen.
I'm not sure what code you are going to want to see so here's the viewSection class file and the viewsection.xml layout.
viewSection.java:
CODE:..............
viewsection.xml:
CODE:..................

Whenever I tether my laptop via the USB cable it takes a long time for the laptop to connect and when it does, it says "Connected to Network X", where X is a number. Everytime I reconnect via USB X increases by 1 so the last time I did it I was on Network 43!!!!! I accept that this could be in part a windows thing and not a GS3 thing BUT when I connect via a Wifi Hotspot it connects really really quickly and always says I am connected to AndroidAP. Its as if the USB tethering firmware is
Therefore connecting via hotspot seems much more stable and smooth however I was under the impression that the laptop internet speed will be quicker using USB tether rather than wifi and as I primarilly use my SGS3 as my home broadband connection I want to try and configure it to get the fastest speed on my laptop as possible. If I do an internet speed check on my SGS3 while my laptop is tethered the phone connection is always faster than the doing the same on the laptop. I guess this should be perhaps expected but as much as 4Mbits/s. I.e My phone was getting speeds of 6Mbits/sec but without having any apps open on the phone, my laptop would only get 2Mbits/s?

I've a lot of initialization code in my main activity's onCreate(). When I launch my game, the screen goes black for a long time, then my game appears. I did logged some message at the start and end of onCreate() and found that onCreate() is executing its code while the screen is black. Sometimes the screen goes black for too long and phone shows a popup dialog prompting me to choose between Force close/Wait. Then when onCreate() is completed, my game appears. Choosing 'Wait' then dismiss the dialog.
I tried using progress dialog described in this article:
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/dialogs.html#ProgressDialog
But it doesn't work. The screen goes black for the same amount of time even after I use the progress dialog.

I wrote a service and I registered BroadcastReceiver in it. In the onReceive () method of BroadcastReceiver catagory,I just wrote Intent.ACTION_TIME_TICK.equals(intent.getAction()) to receive the systenm time every minute and deal with everything that I should do in it every minute.But i found a problem that when the mobile phone screen was locked and was completely black,my service seems to be sleep and does not work,and when I light up the screen(it is still in locked condition),the system will automatically run my service.I do not know the reason,I guess if it is because my service is not the system-level service? When the mobile screen is black,Andraid system will hibernate the sevice which is not the system-level service,so if this,I should add my service to system service,but I know how to use android.permission.ADD_SYSTEM_SERVICE? If you can,please send me a example about how to add own service to system-level service.This problem has been troubled me for two weeks.

Has anyone seen their MapView which was working in 1.1 displaying a plain black screen (no errors) after compling with the 1.5 SDK? I made sure to copy the debug.keystore from the 1.1 location to the new 1.5 location so its compiling and loading on the phone correctly (I did a reinstall not uninstall/install) and shouldn't need a new mapsAPI key.
No errors are showing up in DDMS other than: Failed to find provider info for com.google.settings

I am trying to get a slide down animation to work, and it seems to work except that it starts with a big black screen instead of the screen that was there. So I have layout1 and layout2. When I start the animation using ViewFlipper.showNext it puts a big black background over layout1 and then slides in layout2. If I use ViewFlipper.startFlipping() it slides in layout2 out as it is sliding in layout1 -- which is what I would expect.
My slide_down.xml looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<translate android:fromYDelta="0" android:toYDelta="100%"
android:duration="4000" android:detachWallpaper="true"/> </set>
My java code looks like this:
ViewFlipper vf = (ViewFlipper) findViewById(R.id.DropDownList);
vf.setAnimation(AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(this, R.anim.slide_down));
vf.showNext(); or vf.startFlipping();

When I start my application initially, I get a black screen which stays for a few seconds before my main activity starts. In case of iphone an image with name default is displayed for that split second. I am not sure how to do the same in android. I tried as below in vain
<activity android:name=".Index" android:label="@string/app_name"
android:screenOrientation="portrait" android:theme="@drawable/defaultimage">
<intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter> </activity>
