TG01 whats BUGGIN U>windows 6.5 for rom development!! - TG01 ROM Development

hi, all just thought i would start a thread asking people what bugs they notice on their windows mobile 6.5 TG01 devices.
I will start of with main problems
1. Radio stack- call quality eratic
2. In call volume low
3. Speaker volume low ringtones= noticed sms tone lower than call ringtone
strange
4. 20% battery restriction come on toshiba were not 2 year olds
5. screen switching of seconds into call>hitting power button to resume
screen
and end call>what the f****k!!!!
6. ringtones on sd card out of folder>can we select them when IN a sd

Don't forget we need to find a unlocking metod.
I have my still locked because if I unlock by code. There no more interest in ulocking..
But about other bugs I don't know realy. My TG01 work purfect may be has some little bug who we can solve with time. General I think is just a dizain of the software.

if you are looking phone sim unlocked then check out TG01 forum on modaco for details. £10 to unlock.
if you are waiting for sim unlocking software then i think you are in for a long wait!!
another bug
can we have an accurate battery life indicator,
odd that you can restart device and get extra 10% battery life. which is quite fun when the rom locks you out at 20% battery life on wifi
also quite odd that the 20% battery lock suspends wifi/camera, BUT not music and videos. i would have thought having the screen on with backlight video on, and speaker running would drain battery more. what idiot thought of that!!

for
2 and 3 try srswow 3 cab over at modaco
4. makes me want to scream
5. you just have to double tap screen to activate screen a little message comes up and tells you (but you would have phone on your ear when message comes up) stupid toshiba.
6. not that i know of i just edit them in mp3 prog and put them in tone folder
again annoying but its that or there stupid tones
8. hopefully the cooked rom happens
mine are
10. phone randomly turning of
11. camera takes ages to start
12. "forgets" wep key all the time
i wont be getting a toshiba again il get the eventual hd3 when contract runs out in 1.6 years.

tried those srs wow cabs and all are generally unstable!!
camera one is a bug tho

9.when taking video it seems very dark, light level needs a boost, aperature or somethin
proper video settings would work well, we have no white balance, colour etc nothing!!

Are you lookign for bugs that we all have? Or just wanting to compare people's experiences?
1 - totally - if nothing else can be fixed... fix this
2 & 3 - 'fixed' by WOW SRS HD ?? (certainly my volumes are acceptable, i did change somethign in the reg tho...)
4 - yeah & how does the BT stay on past the 20% (if it was already in operation) but the wifi doesn't
5 - this really should be turn off-able.. prob a coincidence, but when the screen switches off the call qual seems to drop..
6 - never tried this
7 - nor this (i use g maps for on the fly navigation)
8 - mine's ok....
9 - never had this... had some probs coming off standby b4 i installed SRS HD properly..
10 - 2 seconds for me - is that slow??
11 - not had this on any of the 3 wlan i connect too..
12 - never used video
13 - totally my work phone is hd2 & the camera on that is amazing, TG camera is embrassing
can i add
14 - i want to reject a call with sms msg
15 - i want to be rid all the orange ****e that the phone is stuck with, orange plus & boot up screen etc
16 - i want a sys tray icon for everything, don't share 2 'G' symbols between GPS/2G/3G/HSDPA/GPRS etc
17 - strange bug, my file browser (ie change today screen click "browse" NOT file explorer) can't see my mem card
18 - win logo some times displayed on lock screen, sometimes not - tapping it does nothing !!
i'm sure i can think of more...
cheers

- random self-restart/reboot are what piss me the most off (specially when you are making a call!).

I had many of them when I was trying HTC sense (2.1 or 2.5), now with the default WM6.5 screen I do not get any more random reboots.

i use spb mobile shell...

buggin issue
I've noticed my tg01 is so much more stable since I turned of the auto orientation, it used to freeze 3 to 5 times a day, now I hav'nt had to soft reset it for weeks.
I am looking forward to see what development the XDA people can do to get this amazing piece of hardware running smooth, fast & sweet.

Hi
Your probleme at point 10 (phone randomly turning of) it's caused by SRS_WOW( this is still not a stable and compatible verzion for our TG01) . You must uninstall it and no more randomly turning off happends. I had that probleme too.

sorry but i don't have srs_wow and my tg01 (all of them actualy : waranty returns) had this shut down/reboot problems regardless the os (i.e wm6.1 or wm6.5) and regardless softwares installed on it.

Must say I had a lot of problems with SRS WOW being installed or which I lead to believe was the problem. My phone would restart itself every so often but it also didn't like going to sleep it just crashed and stayed in that state until you soft reset it.
I did a hard reset and installed the software that I found useful to myself, didn't install anything like the graphic driver update or SRS WOW and its working flawlessly apart from the call quality issues.
In regards to the above post if you've had a few tg01's and they are all randomly reseting its not a hardware fault with the phone, I'm sure it'll be software which is causing these problems.
I think the first and foremost problem that'll hopefully be fixed by the rom devs is the call quality issues since after all that's why people have a phone, to make phone calls.

Finger Keyboard from xda: after some time keyboard doesnt pop up (especially if phone was standby for a while), switching to other keyboard not possible -> soft reset
Screen Bug: unlock screen in landscape mode bugs, after sliding nothing happens, only if i hit the area where ok button would be..
->not that bad cause i use S2u2
Standby Bug: pressing button to switch on again, screen only blinks for short time..need several tries to get the screen permanently on,to slide..
storage bug: using some programs except the ram of tg01 bugging, than hitting standby button short-- whoops phone goes off and restarts..
bugmode #2: if i take battery out because of extreme bugging after soft reset, sometimes restarts and then there is only a text saying "ok", i can't touch and need to restart again..

i noticed a bug with toshibas keyboard
turning caps look on the delete button doesnt work!!
maybe a hard reset might fix this, but im not willing to reset again

has cook got a test device or does he not want to unlock it now!

Too much bug for this phone :
- Poor memory management, the unit must be reset periodically to free memory or use cleanram utility.
- The device have many difficulties to switch the band from HPDSA to GSM when network is poor. I must regulary change the band manually to keep data use.
- Bad management of motion sensor and light sensor.
- Call volume is sometimes low my contact don't heard me
Some improvement would be apreciated

voluntary e
yeah low cal volume a pain.just as well we have sms texts

No working sound and more....

It has been a long time ago that I bought a new toy with so many problems as this little b**&^^rd.
Now, already three times, I did not have any sound at all.
I do not remeber what complains there were (No driver installed? No sound card?) And I do not feel the energy to find out.
After a restart (which is always quickly done in maximum 4 minutes and I am becoming quite good in finding other things to do when waiting for this and that) the sound is back.
Till now my disappointment only consists of:
1. This sound problem
2. Resume problems in low power settings
3 SD card not being recognized, randomly
4. Shift control centre sometimes crashing, or not working at all.
5. Origami crashing, or not working, or only partionally.
6. Bad performance of my VLC player
7. And whatever anybody can find on this forum.
Anyway.. I am trying to transfer info from my MacBook into my new Macbook Air and that also hangs all the time, resetting the connection etc etc.
So it's not only Vista that makes me alcoholic
I think I grab a large bottle of.....

Sounds familiar (forgive the pun). Not had your problems but I'm reaching the end of a bottle of wine that I opened 45 minutes ago whileunistalling SP1 which caused me endless troubles. Did you install SP1?
trend micro the culprit
If you did the vista sp1 upgrade you must uninstall trend micro antivirus from your system. It is not compatible with sp1 and breaks all of the items you mentioned.
I had the same problem - uninstalled and rebooted, all fixed.

I did not install Trend, neither do I have any other antivirus program.
But thx anyway for the hint.

1. Sound is not working if you have problems with WM. Is WM working OK?
2. Same here
3. Same here
4. When is this? After you use a button?
5. Which powerplan do you use?
6. You must use the Performance power plan to get it working OK
display quirk?
Display quirk?
I recognized that the brightness of the start screen of Snapvue is irregular. Shouldn't it be pitch black? But across the screen I have got sort of a big grayish egg. Or: a big oval part is much lighter than the rest of the start screen in Snapvue. If I go into a menu which is basically white then the irregularity disappears.
Is this a common thing? Or is it just a quirk of my Shift?
Can I change the start screen having liberated the Shift (first steps), not changing to Realvga, I don't know if I have the courage to do that.
Thanks!

1: I am not using WM. But as far as I can see Snapvue working OK. No SIM card however. The sound not working occurs absolutely randomly, but I suspect a little bit the interaction between Origami and WMP. Could be the powerplan, but still....
2. I know, that's solved ( more or less but no more use of low power possible = shorter battery life).
3. I do not know what you mean, and what the realtion is between Vista and WM, I thought the SD card is not recognized by WM at all. I am talking about the SD card randomly dissappering when in Vista. Sometimes after suspend. etc. See that thread.
4. I cannot force this problem with Shift control centre. So no idea when.
5. Different powerplans. I combine them. I will do new research wit Origami only using the fastes power plan. ( If I have time)
6. I tried everything with VLC. It is not a huge problem and also randomly. But in full screen it plays irregularely. I know VLC is not the fastest of all, but still.
I suspect it is Vista doing all kind of things ( Indexing I shut of from the first day) randomly, preventing VLC to play correctly.
When I let it rest for a long time VLC performs better.
VLC working flawlessly or not, is not related to any powerplan or battery use. Tested all combinations. So, when it is working nice, I pull the power supply; put it on low power, and it keeps working nice.
It is all quite disappointing, and I am not an easy complainer.

Had the same problems with the VLC. I updated the video driver and it helped a significant amount. From unwatchable in full screen mode to at the least bearable.

Strange... I do not see any difference after updating.
But my VLC is doing reasonably well, only in full screen it sometimes gets hickups.
Which version do you use? I have 0.8.6.e, and I understood there is already an f.

no sound
hey The sound bug is easily fixed, just open the device manager on the vista side of course, go to sound and on the plugin window it will say that it works but it didnt in my case, all I did was disable it wait a couple of minutes and then enable it again... hope it works for you

This thing hangs more than a....well something that hangs about 4 or 5 times a day...

Seriously unimpressed so far.
This thing has hung 5 or 6 times at least today (day 3....) and about the same yesterday
If this keeps up, I'm binning it and reverting to HD
Unbelievable!
What did you do ? Any pattern ?

Not much info there, my pictures hang up... on the wall everyday.
What are you doing? What have you been doing? Is it due to memory being full (as apps aren't closing)
Maybe I'm not hip to the slang but what do you mean it "hangs" or "hung"?
You must have a duff unit!
Well mine has been completely spot on!
Maybe its something you have installed causing issues? Try uninstalling things one by one to see if that rectifies any problems you may have.

"Hangs" means "crashes" or, more precisely "becomes completely and permanently unresponsive to anything less than a soft reset".
Possibly - and yeah, I know, that's next port of call TBH - it's just really pissing me off at the moment - NONE of my other HTC devices have ever behaved like this.
Just for the record, I've figured out exactly WHAT makes it hang - I open file explorer and navigate to the 'Windows' folder - bang....I get the rotating four colours and it's back off/battery out AGAIN
Thus far I've only installed Kinomaplay (which ISN'T behaving as it should IMO....although it performs it's media functions perfectly)
Coreplayer - which works ok
SPB Time - again, works 'ok' (both are really f..king fiddly to use/setup with this screen - which is ANOTHER thing I'm not impressed with at all - I've had an iPhone in the past - [capacative] screen response was perfect - this one?? have to jab at it several times sometimes to get the desired result and accuracy just isn't good for smaller targets)
One thing I have noticed is - I've only installed those 3 programs but almost all the device memory is used up!?? Unsure if that would cause an issue with it hanging and I've had loads more than this installed onto mt HD and was nowhere near the device memory limitations.
Hmmm....

I really would consider that you may have a duff unit. There are loads of peoeple on here who advise the screen is too responsive! Plus the lack of memory sounds like the biggest issue.
When you navigate to the windows folder, do you actually let it load or do you just leave it? Reason I ask is that there are thousands of files in there and it does take a while to read them. It did on my HD anyway.
Seems like when reg edits have been done to get task manager working how we are all used to it, should be working better.
Oh, software is made for resistive screens so some presses wont register as the software is more than likely looking for a more presice tap rather than a finer splodged over the actual area its looking for a response in. Should be fine later down the line when more things are brought to capacitive screens.
Hope it all works out for ya
That is true - the menus are a little small for finger use - so it will be a case of waiting I guess.
I removed all the progs that I'd installed already (includng 'microsoft my phone' - forgot about that one)
Screen is very responsive most of the time - but then sometimes it just seems to space out- almost like you catch it off guard - not what I'd expect frankly
It does eventually load the windows folder in explorer - but it takes about 2 1/2 mins to do so - no other folder does that to it, nor any other action - and it wasn't doing that up until yesterday
Hard reset next [if i can figure out how...] - if that doesn't yield significant improvement then it's back to TCR for an exchange (provided some more units have turned up by now!!)
Cheers though
Definitely a problem there, my windows folder loads instantly.

+1 ...... Mine loads in a split second
My phone doesnt hangs, but my /windows folder takes about 1/2 minutes in load.
No problems here either. One recommendation though for those with slow file list loading: try to enable and up the caches (which are stock) with Advanced Config. You will gain some more speed!
Hard reset and we're back to full speed again - I guess it was one of the programs that was screwing it up - thanks all for the 'benchmark'
I'm a bit suspicious that it was kinomaplay, as that was [occasionally]interfering with other operations by overlaying itself on top at times and was hard to get out of that loop as the 'X' [close] box wasn't always *really* there (only shown on screen but no actual function)
I might try it[kinomaplay] again - only this time try and figure out why it associates itself with image files that I'd rather the OE windows prog opened.
Thanks for the tip on Adv.Config Tnyynt - TBH I'd not tried to load that one yet, I'll try that in a sec though (it was a godsend on the HD)
There was definitely something funny going on with the memory space on the device, as after the hard reset I'm back up to '116MB free of 181MB' - whereas, even once I'd uninstalled all that had been added - and deleted additional ringtone wavs - I only managed to get a max. of 53MB available showing.

Sounds like Kinomaplay is searching and associating with files in the background. I think it may be set to do that by default but you can tell it not to in the settings - only trouble is you may have to wait for it to do it's thing as not sure if you can interrupt it. I got so fed up with the programme on the HD I trashed it - lovely interface though
Strange thing with Windows folder loading, with the "normal" Explorer it takes my device a very long time too (first few times did a soft reset because i thought it was hung also), but with Total Commander explorer the Windows folder is there instantly, sounds like Explorer runs into something, just have to figure out what though.
Crazy . . . . . . . . . . .
Mine takes just a split second to load windows folder!
But it crashes 2 - 3 times a day! Without doing nothing! When i try to unlock it, screen wont go on! Battery off, here we go again! And i got the no sound problem.. After 3-5 calls, i car hear what others are saying but they cant hear a word from me!! This is happening all time.. (tested all this even with stock rom and no apps installed or any tweak etc..)
I read here in the forums that other people have similar problems..And in italy the distribution stopped because of defected rom??
Some say it heppened in france too.. (allthough i live in greece, i got mine sent from france, expansys headquarters..)
So maybe its roms problem? Or just me having a possible defected device..?
Any of you with freezing problems etc..??
Some hangs and freezes in here too, latest was this morning when I had my phone plugged in the charged over night. I tried waking up the phone to check time so I press the power button: Button lights go on but no image on screen, had to take out battery and restart the phone.
Also I have had a few random hangs that required a soft reset too. I have installed the Electopia demo and the OpenGL speed tester. Also installed .net compact framework 3.5 because an app from marketplace said to require it.
I hope HTC takes care of this issues in an upcoming rom update! Otherwise the phone seems fine, although maybe a bit slower that I've seen in the pre-production reviews and videos which is odd...

I noticed that the hangs have something to do with the charging of the phone,no matter if its via usb or power pluged. Thanks for confirming though.. This is MAJOR issue for me..You think that your phone is ok in your pockets but it is shut down!!
About the sound problem i mentioned before?
Knock on wood my HD2 is rocksolid for now! Everything is fast and stable!

My List of problems

I still love my phone but wondered how many people have noticed the same issues as me, I am hoping for a new patch soon to fix these problem, some have been mentioned in other threads but this is my list.
Call volume is too low
Wifi does not awake properly
battery shows 100% usage when in sleep mode
Screen randomley activates while in call causing call to drop due to touch screen being pressed.
Slight Lag when using the dialler, you can hear the DTMF tones later then you press them.
Charging takes over 3 hours, longer using USB.
When on a call people complain of poor call quality, mostly using bluetooth
Videos on youtube etc out of sync
I would imagine these faults are on everyones phone i would be interested in hearing if anyone has any solutions? I am running 1.6
Also note that about 5 of the above issues could be caused by something using my phone when it shouldn't be, but I cannot find the culprit lol

About USB charge, its normal. USB is dont have the same parameters as charger plus as far i remember the USB on the front of a lot of cases dont give the same amount power as the ones at teh back of case. Im not sure how does it look at notebooks.
I didnt had any problems with Youtube, on 3G and on Wifi the videos was playing properly.
I have the same problems.
Battery is down pretty fast and Wifi sometimes looses connection.
Another problem is, that sometimes the phone is loosing connection to a phonecell and has to reconnect. So for a minute my phone isn't online anymore.

Yes i have had total loss of mobile network while driving along, even though I know the area is ok.
I share the following problems
Volume is too low (mainly call and podcats) and even more using bluetooth.
Battery is odwn pretty fast even when i'm doing nothing! But I have the phone for few days and didn't read all of teh tips about battery yet.
In the market app (and some other) I need to touch severel time the touch "search" or "enter" in order to validate, it often doen't work the first time.
I only experience the battery problem for the first few days. after a few full battery cycle. my x10 battery last about 48 hours with moderate WiFi browsing. push gmail and a lot of txting.

and yes I do think the volume ogvtje phone is below average. but I don't see the problem that others are having on this post.

I share your issues as well. The most annoying for me is the screen randomly activating during calls. Especially it seems when using the headset (posted this else where so im glad im not the only one). Also people I call complain that I sound echoy.
However, at least we have some confirmed updates coming our way as per the official X10 blog. But Q4?? Seems so far away.

I think you will find that is the screen protector causing the touch issues, it makes it hard to touch in the corners and can be fixed by removing it, although I have kept mine on
I would say most of the problems people are having is phone not going to sleep properly, once this is fixed the phone will be much better.
Pictures taken with X10 are too soft at full zoom
And they look washed ...
Crap camera i guess even at 8Mp.

well what you are seeing is *digital* zoom, it basically using a smaller area of the sensor and enlarged it.
the camera might not be the best, but is much better than most smart phone
my problem with the x10 so far
-timescape not very smooth
-mediascape is pretty bad
-during a call the screen go on and off (even when using bluetooth)

Well, my mistake ... not zoom as in camera zoom.
Zoom when i open the image on computer and view at 100% not 1024x768
In call volume is really low, but i think that this is software problem
Install advanced task killer and activate auto kill. then you can see really improvement of battery. The problems with battery are because of applications running in the back

I use task killer, that doesn't stop the sleep issue, something is working while the phone is in sleep and keeping the phone awake 100% of the time. i may try formatting the memory card as this seems to help some users.
I disabled the Location thing. the battery improved considerably. i guess it used the cell broadcast function when i had the wifi turned off. and it does that with the screen locked also, but you don't actually need it. so just disabled it.

I have a problem with wifi connection getting lose and switch to 3g while I know that my home wireless is super good and I didn't have problem before rooting...I heard there is a wifi patch somewhere but I couldn't find anything...anybody knows?
for the battery there is a thread here for setCPU software and how to add profiles, specially having the processor operating at less than 300MHz after 30% battery and when the screen is off helped my battery improvement supergreat at least when battery bellow 30% u will be sure that you are squeezing few extra hours just to use it to make phone calls...what I'm saying it did more than doubling the battery life for me worth trying
For wifi problem i might have figured out the problem when u go to setting > wireless control > wifi setting > then hit the bottom left button there is advance setting (that i never noticed before) where u can set wifi to sleep, feel free to set it to never...im gonna c if this gonna fix my problem

Everyone complains about low call volume, but I have never noticed it...the actual speaker, for like speaker phone is definately a little quiet at times though.
To the OP, if it says your phone is awake for a large percentage of the time, and you haven't been using it for that much time, then there's probably some app that's not allowing it to sleep. If you can figure out which one it is, it will increase your battery life.
One problem I've just noticed was that there is no way to create groups with contacts. Certainly not a serious issue, but it makes sending a mass text very annoying.

the call volume improved with the new firmware, wish the camera to be a bit better. I really hate the gmail app for not giving me a list of my email adresess. and yeah the loudspeaker could be a bit louder

Notes:
A. some issues are windows phone 7 related that we should wait for microsoft to fix them see the list here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=836373
B. I will request the next rom update to be an hd7 reg edited as default , so that we will only need to use the activation code without cracking the phones security with (chevron wp7.exe ) as with the next microsoft ypdate we will not be able to use it any more.
C. All problems are being repeated now , i think the list above includes it all ,one more day and i will be reporting all these issues on the chinees forum , or to cotulla ,
A very big problem don't let your phone empty its charge as it can't be charged while it is off and it will die unless you find a way to charge it externally​
I hope that cotulla this repaired
Speciall the camera
wifi problem, phone don't open the site but is connect to the router
WiFi problem - I can't see all WPA secured WiFi networks, I can find (and connect) my WiFi at home, but at work, HD2 doesn't see WiFi there...
Yesterday I answered the phone and the opposite side can't hear me (radio 2.15.., I don't know, just the last version)
Sometimes the phone is little bit laggy, I think, that the problem is in the SD card, when I used the phone w/o card (before hard-reset ofc), everything was faster
1. Speaker is very loud
2. Hope Market will be soon available for all.
I will be updating the list issue periodically and I might register to dft forum to report it all if he is not going to xda anymore

Known issue with Magldr.
Warning!
Installed win phone 7 on my HD2, and it formated my 16 gb memory card in a secured partition, all data was erased, and i could not format it using any windows tools, so the only solution for me was to "Hard" Format it using a free software called SDFormatter, it formated and brought back to life my microSD Card.
So people, back up your data before flashing.
So far one issue: it takes quite a lot of time to turn off the phone
Regarding the camera, using flash gives green tint. No other problems from the reported ones.

I had the same problem. I've noticed that the wlan channel from my wlan router was 13. I switched the channel to 11 and then WP7 find my wlan...
So, WP7 doesn't support wlan channels higher then 11...
wifi mac address will change if you reboot the phone.
The type isn't clear when you scroll down or up in the system menu, it takes a little bit time when the type is clear again.
The next problem for me is that I don't know how to set up wireless synchronization, I think I've done everything according to Microsoft pages, but it doesn't work for me.
And then I have the same problems like you, loud speakers, camera...
Well, after reading most of the posts here I guess I was lucky, WiFi and Mobile data connection worked for me, the phone was fast (faster than Android).
The whole WP7 seems to be 'airy' and not so heavy as Android, I liked the look of emails, large and clear fonts, easy to read and navigate. But on the whole, the system seems to be too closed off, not much customization is available.
I did manage to unlock it and install some 3rd party apps but soon the phone would give me a message that 'Microsoft has revoked' the particular program. Also the phone keeps locking itself over and over. I got tired of unlocking it every time I wanted to install a new app. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it did not. Had to either reset the phone or PC many times in order for things to work.
Does anybody know a solution to this?
I could have asked MS to give me the 'key' so that live services could be used but was not sure I want to keep this OS on my phone. It may be similar to Vista issue, a nice looking OS but buggy. Somehow I have a feeling that a new and (much) improved WP7 is around the corner.
Couple of tips:
If you want to sync your contacts, calendar, etc., the easiest way is to go through Google. If you used an Android ROM before this should not be a problem. Back up all your contacts in Android by using your Google account, once you are in WP7 go to Settings - People - Gmail and sign in. It will automatically sync your contacts to the phone - painlessly. You can also choose not to have your Facebook contacts mixed with the phone's ones. Up to you.
If you want to revert back to WinMO 6.5 or Android:
- take out your SD card first
- turn off your phone and then hold the Vol Down key as you press and hold the Power button (get into Bootloader screen)
- flash the official ROM (3.14 RUU is recommended)
- use your photo camera to format your SD card (if you have a card holder, stick in, and then format)
- if you wish you can format your SD card again once you put it back into your phone and plug it into your PC
It worked for me. I am using my SD card again to run Android (flawlessly)

After unlock the phone, you have to use 2 softs :HTC Connection Setup and Tom WP7 Jailbreak in order to prevent from MS remote lock. Have you used it before?
some issue
My Leo restarts after about an one-two hours .
When I click the red phone, then again, Leo wake up after one minute , restart or doesn't wake up .
The second issue is when Leo is restarting , all information disappear - just like in hard reset .
It's not very stable and vast ;(

[Q] My Problems with Nexus 4

Hi !
These are the problems I am facing on my Nexus 4 device and I would really appreciate if someone kindly let me know as to how I can solve these serious issues plaguing me since almost a month now. ( Nexus 4 running KitKat 4.4.4 )
1. When the phone is in the pocket and I get any notification it naturally wakes up but then supposed to go back to the Sleep Mode like in any phone normally but unfortunately, my phone stays awake and I notice this when I actually feel the phone growing uncomfortably warm in my pocket !
The screen shows multiple pages open and battery draining like anything ! ( after reading some online problems related to this I have deleted WebChat and closed the Daydream function but the problem still persists and it seems I am not the only one facing this problem . )
This has happened many times.
Further, I have no idea if this happened only after the update or not since I have never used Nexus before and besides , my phone is second hand and was already updated to this version when I had purchased.
2. At times when I am rotating my camera from lets say, Landscape to Potrait mode and visa versa to take pictures the image freezes for a heartbeat and becomes normal once again.
Acting as if memory is not enough !
Storage shows 5.75G left. Two movies and music and no games.
No anti virus app but DU Booster. ( also happened before installing the booster app. )
So far, after using this phone for almost a month I am very happy and I love the smoothness of the phone .
To me this is an Andriod version of an iPhone in terms of smoothness and reliability.
In fact, I think it is better in many ways but if these above issues are solved it would encourage me to buy a new Nexus 5 soon which I am sure is much nicer then a 4.
Thank you for your kind assistance and best regards to all.
Sammy
I assume you've performed a factory reset after having bought it used, is that right?
1. Have you set it up to turn the screen on when a notification is received? It can affect your battery life, especially if it happens to unlock on its own, which I think may be the case if you're reporting "multiple pages open and battery draining like anything"
2. It's quite normal, obviously if the switching time is not THAT annoyingly long. Mine has approximately 40% storage left and sports almost no lag within the camera app, but that fraction of a second is noticeable.
Thanks for your kind reply.
Yes, I did a factory reset.
Let me check the notification status.
With regards to camera when I twist and turn the phone - the image , instead of changing with the position actually ' thinks ', before doing it which means a blurry lag .
I clearly see this from one position to the next.
Further, what I forgot to write and ask was when the phone is in my pocket and I receive an incoming call the screen freezes and I cannot swipe it to unlock and so I have to switch off the power and turn it on and only then swipe and receive the call ! ( I used to get this on a custom ROM on Galaxy S and the Dev gave me this idea and which I apply here too ! )
Thanks again !
