Is anyone experiencing frequent freezes?
I've had to remove battery to reset it.
Too bad G2 doesn't have hard reset combination like G1.
Is it just my G2? Should I get a replacement?
I'm currently using temp root and OCing to 1.4 and 1 ghz....
Just testing to see if either are the problems.
Any input would be nice.
Hold the lock/unlock button, down volume, and scroll button. The three finger salute

you are clocked too high. your processor isnt stable at 1.4ghz. mine isnt either. i have mine at 1.394ghz or whatever the value is. try to clock to a different speed and try it. you wont notice a difference in speed. i promise.
I'm having same issues, just got off phone with tech support and was told that the issue is well documented and widespread. They also said that the software update addresses the issue upon release.

Thanks. Been trying to figure that out!!
I'll try to clock it down to val=73 and so on until stable.
Which value are you using?

Is anyone else having issues with the new YouTube app that was recently released?
Every time I press "back' during a video playback the phone freezes & crashes on me - is this happening to any of you??
yup. Happens to me each and everytime. I can only remedy it with a damn battery pull
Same happens to me, I had to force a reboot though ADB (It didn't fix anything when I uninstalled Youtube from ADB effectively killing its process).
It crashed once while watching a video and I pressed the back button. However, I've tried to recreate the issue and I can't get it to crash at all now.
Nope, working perfectly fine here.
It locks up on me when pushing the "back" button, too. Battery pull required. Boo.
Looks like I'm not the only one having this issue.... I hope they update it soon, the new apps pretty sick!

The same thing happened to me today. Had to pull out the battery to restart.

Same here on both of our g2's. One rooted and on normal. When hitting back it locked the phone up tights. Have to pull battery to restart.

Yeah push the back button then it gets all messed up... what an update.. I'm sure it'll be fix but not right away.. plus its really just the UI, just uninstall until its fix
Meaning about the UI isn't that the only real update?? Everything else seems the same..EXCEPT for the video playing on the spot once instend of extending the info

Yeah, it's good to see it's not just me. It's happened at least half a dozen times in the past couple days to me. Personally, I loathe battery pulls so I just sit and click back and home a few hundred times to get a fc option.

yes same here because the rent is to damn high
It freezes on me as well
Hmm.. seems like I'm one of the few for whom the new Youtube is working perfectly.
It does the same thing for me - near frozen when I hit the back button on a video. The first time I did this I had the patience to eventually go through a power-off sequence (15-30 seconds between hitting buttons and getting a response). The second time I just did the 3 finger salute to reboot it.
Note that you don't have to pull the battery. Power-VolumeDown-Trackball is an instant reboot sequence (though it did take 5 to 10 seconds to perform it when Youtube was acting up).
Just a question here... most of you with issues do you have 1st batch/pre-release G2's? I only ask because I had a pre-release G2, and I had a crap load of issues with it. I sent that one back for an exchange to Tmobile, and got my new one yesterday. I have zero issues at all. New YouTube works great, I have full signal now, and, well the phone works the way its meant to work.
Why hello there. I've tried every 2.2.1 rom available. Most have been stable and relatively bug-free.
BUT I've also noticed that all of them have some latency when I push soft buttons. For example... when I push a button to open a post in tapatalk or click to launch an app on the dashboard the phone take a moment or three to execute the command. I end up pushing buttons more than I need to just because it didn't feel like the first one "took". Once the command goes through stuff seems to launch or execute very quickly.
This seems like new behavior; different than eclair.
Am I imagining this? Anybody else notice? Did I do something wrong?
Thanks!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
as far as I know, this issue existed with eclair as well.
My Epic's always been like that.
I think it's some sort of hardware issue, not an issue with the rom
I haven't noticed this (in 2.1 or 2.2), and i'm usually picky about stuff like that.
Hmm. If it's because my hardware is borked I'm gonna be pissed!

It happens to me occasionally but its a rarity. I haven't been able to correlate it with any sort of CPU or GPU overload. Not really sure why it happens.
I talked with some sprint people earlier when complaining about my phone, and they said that soft button latency is an issue that Samsung is aware of. They say it's not a defect in any specific phone, but a general issue. Whether people notice it or not is a different story. Take it with a grain of salt.
Has anyone found an actual solution to completely get rid of the wake delay issue? What I mean by wake delay is when you try to wake your phone from sleep and the key pad lights come on but the screen stays black for a few seconds sometimes longer.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
What type and class card are you using? Seems to be related to card. I have 3 cards. 16gb class 2 Sandisk = no wake delay on any build. 8gb Lexar class 6 and other 4gb class 6 = 3-5 second wake delay on all builds except darkstone's Super_Ram build.
I'm using the stock 16gb class 2 SD card that came with phone. I've alreAdy formatted the card and I'm using ozdroid Windows Rom but I still get the wake delays...So with your 16gb class 2 card you get
Zero delays ? Maybe I should buy a different card.

Try reformatting with 32kb clusters.
This is a known software issue and is present in every single Android build on here. The devs all know about it and it's something that needs to be fixed.
Actually, I take that back. I'm using Ginger HD2 at the minute and it's a LOT better.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Well its random. It will work fine for a while then I start having long delays. It's good to know that its a known issue and the devs are working on it because its the only real issue that's keeping android from being stable. It sucks when you want to show someone something on your phone and it won't even wake up.

Seriously, if you can be bothered to set up a new build, try Ginger HD2. I can go into standby with the power button and then wake it again seconds later, and it works 99% of the time.

Probably is because GB is so much more resource efficient, so the sleep/wake process is faster. I cant wait til theres more complete/stable GB builds released after awhile. But for now, UltimateDroid does the trick for me as a daily driver.
One thing to prevent black screen on wake is to hold the power button instead of just pressing it. For some reason, this cuts way down on the black wakeups. Between that and using the newest kernel by MDJ, I almost never have black wakeups anymore.
Oh, and it seems to me that the lower class sd cards actually help run Android better. Don't ask me why, but class 2's seem to yield better battery life and even perform better, or at least as good as a 4 or 6

Ginger HD2 isn't a Gingerbread build. It's a 2.2.1 build with a Gingerbread look and feel to it (and the lovely new keyboard too!)
Did you try what I suggested? Also, do a chkdsk for errors on your card. I'm using stock 16gb Sandisk card and have no wake delay with any build and latest hastarin kernel. My phone wakes immediately even multiple back to back locking/unlocking.

Hmm... not sure why you're experiencing this issue, but I have one more suggestion for you. D/L Advanced Configuration Tool for WinMo. Once installed, open it up and go down to section for Power Management and enable all of the power management options, save and reboot.

I will try this in the next few days. I'm wondering if the wake delays are directly related to the inconsistent ear censors that control the wake and sleep of the phone when in a phone call. Sometimes I will take my ears off the phone to look at the screen and the screen won't light up for a good while. Happens when I end calls too sometimes, screen won't light up. I feel these 2 issues are closely related.

Hi
maybe you should try the last hastarin kernel v8.6, it seems it has got ride of those delays.
May we know what are you using now ?

I'm using hastarins 8.6 and the delay is still there. It is a tad better but not gone. I've tried various builds and they all have this very minor delay. It is not that long but can be at times. Sometimes I think people have different interpretations of instant. The best comparison is to try a Desire or Desire HD. Press the power button on those phones and it comes on INSTANT.

I'm using v8.5.3. I've noticed it mostly delays when I quickly sleep wake , sleep wake or like I mentioned before while on a phone call, trying to look at the screen. I feel that the solution to this issue can be found by adjusting the sensors, but Im no expert. Does any one use set CPU? I heard that can help.

I've had two lockups on my Xoom sine I received the update yesterday. I didn't have any lockups in the three days I had the Xoom before the update. In both cases I put the Xoom to sleep using the power button and I had to reboot (volume up + power).
Anyone else seeing more lockups in 3.01?

I just had a lockup in stock browser with user agent set to desktop. i was on theunion.com viewing a story about the fukushima reactors from ap.org. there was flash content in the right column. I can't help but wonder if the leaked flash 10.2 is the same build that will be released on 3/18.
after waiting 60 seconds the freeze relented and the menu bar became responsive again.

i'm having this issue with my wifi xoom. i can't even get into recovery to do a hard reset b/c, from a guess, after selecting nvflash the screen is supposed to go off then back on. mine won't come back on. so mine must be hardware.
I had 4 -5 random reboots and a number of FC's before the update. After the update I haven't had a single random. Even with overclocking.
sucks for me. since the nearest place to replace it is 50miles away I have to hold on to it until I get a chance to replace it. I may be able to tomorrow since it's pretty close to my job, but it depends on whether my wife picks up my daughter or if I have to.
crap like this puts a bad taste in your mouth though.

Dude, that sux. I haven't had any bad things like what you guys are having happen to me. My Xoom has been great. Maybe you guys should look at some of the apps you've installed. When my eLocity A7 was acting up, not waking up from sleep and such it turned out to be incompatable software I installed.
I reported a few weeks ago about my keyboard being an arsehole, it's happening to me two or three times a day, and I will have to reset my phone etc. etc. to fix it. I get nervous while writing messages, as I just have a feeling it's going to happen, it makes me want to not text.
I <3 this phone, and I <3 Android. I don't want another phone, I love the Xperia Play.
Anyone got any ideas?
Have a look, I took a video of it. It basically registers other touches on the screen while texting that I just didn't make...

As you can see it also happens when I just HOLD the screen, not even tapping.
It usually happens with . -> ALT and BKSP -> Z

You think that there's a hardware fault? I unlocked the bootloader, if I relock it, they won't know the difference and it'll be covered under warranty, right?
Maybe its just the keyboard.apk ? Try another keyboard app and see if it doesnt help...

Wow that would be so annoying...I use swype so I'm not experiencing this problem...try a different keyboard.

Try a different keyboard before you try a warranty claim.
Look for HTC IME Gingerbread on these forums, it much better than stock too.
I am having the same issue, and I USE SWYPE.
It seems to happen when my fingers are really warm, usually when I've been on the laptop for a while.
Also, when I come out of the bath, and dry off, just after, the texting just goes insane and keeps beeping at me and pressing other buttons instead. It is so frustrating.
What's strange is that when I turn it into qwerty landscape.. it doesn't do it as much. Still does occasionally, but generally will fix my issue.
I doubt it is a hardware fault. Maybe it's my screen protector being odd.

I've tried pretty much every keyboard out there that i have heard of. from better keyboard to swype.
I came across another called FlexT9 the other day and bought it. Its by far the best i think. very quick, responsive and accurate. supports gestures and you have the swype funcion aswell (which i think is better than the official swype keyboard )

Maybe an idear to do a factory reset throug clockwork mod and then a fresh start from the unrooted .145 tft on, after that the rom you want to install.
I also had this about a week ago when i was using the Gp2xperia. but now not anymore since i started over. Am running CM7 at the moment
