Only one update, open or uninstall , wtf? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

This happens a lot , but if I hold update back hold update back a couple of times it will finally show update.

what are you talking about?
ota updates?

He's talking about the market apps updating. Although I would have had no idea if I didn't have the problem myself.
Clear market cache.
And speak coherently next time

Oh I guess you had to be there.
App updates in the regular market, if there is only one update and you click on it the next screen says open or uninstall , instead of update .
And if I go back and forth a few times it will let me update . I was just letting y'all know that's another way to make it work .

When that happens to me I just give up and wait until there's more than on, then Update all. But it's annoying. Glad I'm not the only one experiencing it.

Happens on multiple as well its usually only one of them not showing update. Had 4 showing today but titanium backup was like that.

I believe this is an issue with the new market. I've had this issue occur on multiple phones. It should be resolved soon I'd imagine...

That happens to me when on Wifi. Once I switch it off and fall back to 3G, I can update it.

It has to be Market side... I get the same thing happening on my ET4G, GT10.1 and my wife's HTC EVO Shift and Galaxy Tab.
Clear cashe and it fixes it... For a bit.

Weird Vibrations

I have a weird problem with my phone. Every so often, my phone wjll vibrate twice, in two really short bursts that arent powerful at all. It is completely random. And whenever im playing music, it will stop the music for 5 seconds. If anyone knows what this is it would be greatly appreciated because this is happening on my new phone, as well as my last two galaxy s 2's (ive gotten 3 replacements)

What apps do you have that give off frequent notification? Do you have facebook, friendcaster, word w/f, etc.? Can you give us a small run down?
you can also download betterbatterystats (free here on XDA) and look at what frequently runs perhaps it appears as a wakelock.
or you can always look at logcat

It's a kernel crash. It's a part of android. It usually happens to let you know that it crashed but android reloads where it last left off. Hence the reason for the gap in music. If you press home immediately after you will catch it trying to finish reloading.

Is the same app running every time it happens? It may be a 3rd party app that isn't completely compatible running on your phone. Try deleting any third party widgeta.. then going into your task manager and clearing your memory. Then add one widget at at time til it starts doing it. If it doesn't do it, then open one of your e eryday apps at a time till you have the vibrating again. You may find some crappy lil app that you installed is causing all the problems.

4g will not work with app store

Is anyone having this issue too? If my 4g is on, i can surf the Web, but now it won't update apps or download them. It stuck on waiting for network, but when i switch to 3g, download starts right away...4g not working for downloading or updating apps.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
It's been posted before in other portions of the thread. Nothing I can do besides the temp fix. Go to setting-manage apps- the find the play market and clear the cache then uninstall the update. You will have to do that every time you re enter the market under 4g
let me guess you are on a GB build possibly with a ICS modem? if so then you need to choose either one or the other. i was having the same problem recently and thats how i fixed it.

Yes your correct there is no real fix until they update the market again. or if you flash a ROM with a new Ics market then it should work fine.

Rerelease of ICS on Epic 4g touch?

Ok Im a newbie to the rooted epic 4g touch, now I one clicked my epic 4g touch with sfhubs ff18 one click. Now I heard that they are rereleasing the update to fix ALOT of issues. My question is will I get the notification for the update on my rooted phone and will it put my phone back to unrooted if I do? Also if it doesnt send me the notification will someone be posting another one click no data odin link for the new update so I can get the fix? Sorry but not sure how updates work on rooted phones.

There is no new update release. They are resuming the previous release, with the only change being the updater script now automatically wipes data from the Swype keyboard to fix that particular bug.

So then they arent fixing the battery issue?
The battery issue has been resolved for several people I know that have removed all of their user installed apps and reinstalled one by one till they find the app that isn't ICS ready.

It might sound weird how i resolved the battery issue. I went to settings and unmounted sd card. Then restarted phone. Then inserted card, mounted, and let it go through its motions, when it stabilized... I restarted it again.
All is well. Run cpuspy to check making sure its going into deep sleep properly, remove apps or set them to manual update. Im not a big Facebook guy, i have an account, but the recent update forced 1 hour check ins, preventing deep sleep. Be vigilant in checking apps anytime they update.
This ff18 (two weeks or so im on it) is fabulous and smooth for me. No rooting, i did the YouTube guy update real easy

Can't bring up open apps from home button

Have a weird bug that comes and goes and can't figure out why or how to fix it. Long pressing home should bring up all open apps and let you get to task manager. Most the times it works, but every once in awhile it will completely stop working. A reset fixes it or if i just wait awhile it will come back.
Anyone else get this or know of a fix? Home button still works, just not the long press

Restarting my phone fixes it, but its just annoying to do it to fix it. It shouldn't do it in the first place. Also it will come back and start working on its own too. Most of 90% of the time it works though

*bump* its been awhile, curious if anyone else has been getting this or has a fix other than restarting. I have to restart my phone every other day because sometimes apps like xda won't open and I can't close them in the background.

random Red flashing boarder on i747 after update over the air to 4.1

I just updated my phone yesterday, and im having two issues. The main issue is the flasshing red boarder around the entire screen the appears mostly when switching apps, going home, and turning on/off. It even happens during the boot-up.
Second, my keyboard is lagging. I have all of the "feedback" features turned off and it still does it. No 3rd party boards installed. I really like the new keyboard and I wont have some third party app developers recording every keystroke.
Any ideas?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I wasn't aware there even was on OTA update to 4.1.1. Far as I knew you could only do it through Kies. Maybe try redoing it through that? Or find the stock image on here and flash it through Odin.

Check the developer options. One of them is set to update when the screen draws. Just disable anything in there you don't need.

It was a dubuging feature turned on.
4.1 is available OTA for AT&T right now.
I dont know when it became available, but its really nice. I use adw pro launcher always on all my android devices so I dont get the full experience of 4.1. I really love what they did with the keyboard and the dropdown, but I really wish they kept the data switch there.
My battery life is not as good anymore though...
Anyway, let me know if its not available to you.

Nvmnd it didnt completely fix the problem.
It doesnt do it nearly as much, but its still there. I will redo from kies.
