Why won't my Arduino Uno run my door locking code? - arduino

Sorry for the messy code, but I was wondering if anyone knows why it can't be run on my Arduino Uno? It's for a locking door controlled by RFID and IR remote respectively, and it stopped working for some reason when I edited the code for the void ir() section.
my code:

Stepper small_stepper(STEPS, 2, 4, 3, 5);
int Steps2Take; // 2048 = 1 Revolution
int receiver = 8; // Signal Pin of IR receiver to Arduino Digital Pin 6
IRrecv irrecv(receiver); // create instance of 'irrecv'
decode_results results; // create instance of 'decode_results'
bool locked = true;
int steps = 500;
// Create MFRC522 instance.

Error in sending data to cloud server and arduino lagging

The code im working on, is suppose to show temperature, humidity and able to take and show heart rate on the lcd. After data is shown, it will send data to "ThingSpeak". After sending, there will be a http code error -401 which is ok as it can only send data very 15 sec. But after awhile, it will change it error http code -301... and then it will hang. Another issue is when i try to use the temperature sensor with the heart rate sensor, the lcd will hang and it will not work till i reset.

Can I temporarily disable Arduino Serial data receive?

I am working on a project and I encountered some problems.
I am using a DHT11 temperature sensor, an Arduino Uno and a TFT LCD display 2.2-inch model ITDB02-2.2.
What I want my project to do is to use 2 functioning modes for the sensor that I can select from the keyboard at the beginning of the program(one which is normal and one which will be used on special occasions)(so I need serial communication).
I noticed that the screen does not function if I start a serial communication at any rate so I used Arduino Serial.begin(9600) and Serial.end() for the mode selecting part of the program.
THE PROBLEM: My Arduino is still sending data through serial port even if I ended the serial communication and is looking like this:
I found out that Serial.end() function does not shut off serial communication but just the rate of communication. I am curious if you have any idea that I can use in order to get rid of the extra data, to neglect it before the computer receives it.
I`m stuck. I thought that interruptions would be a solution but they are not as far as I researched on the internet.

You are correct in the definition that Serial.end() does not disable the serial monitor, only the interrupts. After calling Serial.end() you can disable the serial monitor like so.
#include <avr/io.h>
// Save status register, disable interrupts
uint8_t oldSREG = SREG;
cli();
// Disable TX and RX
cbi(UCSRB, RXEN);
cbi(UCSRB, TXEN);
// Disable RX ISR
cbi(UCSRB, RXCIE);
// Flush the internal buffer
Serial.flush();
// Restore status register
SREG = oldSREG;

Here is a step-by-step to mix your GPS input device and your GSM output device.
Remainder for Arduino principles:
The void setup() function is performed one time after startup.
The void loop() function is performed periodically after the
setup().
Step1 - declaration of GPS device and Serial link
// GPS and Serial link
static const int RXPin = 4, TXPin = 3;//was 4 and 3;
static const uint32_t GPSBaud = 9600;
// The TinyGPS++ object
TinyGPSPlus DeviceGPS;
// The serial connection to the GPS device
SoftwareSerial SerialGPS(RXPin, TXPin);
Step2 - declaration of GSM/FONA device and Serial link
Including the SendTo SMS number !!!
#define FONA_RX 2//2
#define FONA_TX 3//3
#define FONA_RST 4//4
// The serial connection to the GSM device
SoftwareSerial SerialFONA = SoftwareSerial(FONA_TX, FONA_RX);
// The FONA/GSM Cellular Module device
Adafruit_FONA DeviceFONA = Adafruit_FONA(FONA_RST);
// The destination SMS number
static const char *sSendTo = "<NUMBER>";
Step3 - setup() function for (Console, GPS and GSM)
It is possible to add some extra Init.
// only execute once
void setup()
{
// Wait and Init Console
while (!Serial); // Serial over USB
Serial.begin(115200);
// Init GPS link
SerialGPS.begin(GPSBaud);
Serial.print(F("TinyGPSPlus ver: "));
Serial.println(TinyGPSPlus::libraryVersion());
// Init GSM link
SerialFONA.begin(4800);
if (! DeviceFONA.begin(SerialFONA)) {
Serial.println(F("Couldn't find FONA"));
while (1); // Stop working
}
// Add some extra Init
}
Step4 - loop() function to wait GPS location and send SMS
It is possible to use String() to create the SMS based on the
acquired DeviceGPS.location.lng() and DeviceGPS.location.lat().
// executed periodicaly
void loop()
{
// check until GPS message
while (SerialGPS.available() > 0) {
// get for a complete GPS message
DeviceGPS.encode(SerialGPS.read());
}
// flush GSM serial link
while (SerialFONA.available() > 0) {
if (DeviceFONA.available()) {
DeviceFONA.flush();
}
}
// send an SMS!
char sendto[21], message[141];
// Wait for location (lng, lat, alt) is OK
if (DeviceGPS.location.isValid()) {
// ==> create SMS with longitude & latitude
}
}

I tried this code; but it didn't work...
There is another code;
void setup() {
Serial.begin(2400);
}
void loop() {
if (Serial.available() > 0){
Serial.println(Serial.read());
}
}
Before trying it; I connected data pin of receiver to RX pin of Arduino...
I usually got '0' byte.i
It didn't work as I desired...
SOLVED
The tests I have done so far were already taking the true datas but I was viewing them as numbers...
That's why I couldn't understand that It was working well.
Let's have a look at codes;
Transmitter:
The same as transmitter code at question message
Arduino (Receiver):
char x, msg[6];
int i= 0;
void setup() {
Serial.begin(2400);
}
void loop() {
if (Serial.available() > 0){
msg[i] = Serial.read();
if (msg[0]=='f' || msg[0] == 'b' || msg[0] == 'd'){
i++;
}
if (i==3){
Serial.println(msg);
i = 0;
msg[0]=0;
}
}
}
msg[0]=='f' || msg[0] == 'b' || msg[0] == 'd'
The purpose of comparison above is catching "frw", "bck" or "dur" messages which I sent transmitter...
The data pin of the receiver should be connected RX pin of the Arduino...

RFID (SoftwareSerial) influences/breaks connection with SD (SPI)

I'm creating a RFID logger with Arduino. I connected a RFID scanner, RTC module and a SD card reader. All parts are working fine together but when i started combining different sketches a problem occured.
Reading files and writing to files on the SD card is no problem as long as i don't scan a RFID card. When input is received from the RFID scanner it is no longer possible to read or write to the sd card. The connection seems to be "disconnected" as soon as RFID input is received.
I tried using different pins for the RFID scanner, another sequence of initializing in the setup but it doesn't make a difference.
Is this a limitation of the Arduino or am I doing something wrong?
I'm using a ATS125KRW RFID shield and a Catalex MicroSD card adpater in combination with a Arduino Mega.

I think you are running out of RAM ,i have done a lot of data logging on SD card with Arduino and its a very resources taking job for the minial 2kb ram on the UNO (assuming u using UNO).
Try using MemoryFree() library before every place you see there might be problem to see if you are running outta memory?
