[Q] Boot sound - Acer Iconia A500

Whilst looking through the system files on my standard Iconia yesterday I found a bootsound.wav
I played it, and it's actually quite nice, however I've NEVER heard my Iconia play a sound on boot, and I can't seem to find any settings to enable it?

[Q] Words with Friends Problem Acer A500

I have just bought Acer Iconia A500 and when I play Words WF the tray tiles keep shuffling until I place one, running Honeycomb 3.1, is this a problem with the tablet or software ? I have tried turning the rotation off any ideas please
I play the game myself on my tablet and do not have this problem.. Are you running the Tablet version of the app of the phone version? I have no issues at all witht he tablet version.
I expect the tablet version I downloaded from market with the tablet I did not need to specify so believe should be right I have got the ap on an Optus Tablet works fine, thanks for your reply ????????????
If you got it through the market as opposed to installing an APK manually then you should have the right version. I am at a loss as to why you are experiencing the problem you describe though. Not experiencing this issue at all myself.
try to uninstall, then reinstall, may be a bad apk u installed
Hi. Your accelerometer is what's causing the issue. It's reporting the Z axis to be 0 to + 18 instead of -9.6 to +9.6.
I have the exact same issue. It's not a bad install or APK. You'll have the same problems in games like ATilt 3D Labyrinth, and anything else that relies on Z-axis. Have been looking for a fix or an update that fixes this but so far nothing.
I've tried multiple roms so far. My next attempt is going to revert back to stock (unrooted) 3.0 and try the OTA updates.
Update: Just reverted back to stock rom, issue is present in words with friends and also ATilt 3D Labybrinth. However, it's not present in Labyrinth Lite. Odd. updating now to stock 3.1
Update: Just updated to stock 3.1 via OTA. Words with friends now working/not constantly changing tiles.
I had the same problem. Constant shuffling in WWF. Updated to 3.1 and seems to be gone. They should've put a way to turn off shake-to-shuffle (which is what causes the problem). Honestly who would shake their tablet (or phone) to shuffle when there is a button right there?
Hi thanks for your really detailed reply you obviously know your stuff but as I am very new to tablets I have no idea what or how to update etc. Tablet tells me 3.01, Kernel 2.6.36.3 and build 1.016.04.
What is rooted etc, sorry if I seem a bit thick but struggling with the terminology and process, I therefore probably am a bit thick....LOL thanks for your assistance, Phil

[Q] SplashTop HD Problems

Is anyone getting the crash problems with Splashtop HD? I googled the error and found that 3.2 with it's weird DHCP problem sucks and needs Static, but i changed my setting to static, and im still having crashing when im having -anything- of fair performance on my desktop up.
What im trying to do is use it to play Atlantica online, which of course, i've seen people playing Rift through their Iconia's on youtube, so Altantica, far less graphical should be no problem.
Right now im using the 3.2 CFW update that someone put out to preserve my root, i am also on Thor's 3.4 the rest Kernal, BUT i think im going to change it up to Richardtrip's.
Any tips would be appreciated.
Edit: Also, whenever i try to browse to other computers on my home network. (Have a computer that holds our movies and such) It crashes as well.
Edit: Problem seemed to have fixed it'self over..dunno, kind of strange. Anyway, mods feel free to remove this post.

[Q] Sound Lag

Hello,
I am getting a 1 second sound delay effecting menu and all apps after the device is left on over night, tried factory resetting and with and without sleep mode. Has anyone else experienced this issue or have a solution for me?
Thanks
I was going to say the same thing. I have random one second lag in YouTube (rarely), BSDroid (always), but not in Plex or Kodi. The problem is fixed by pausing in YouTube and jumping forward on BSDroid. It's a big pain as these issues don't affect the chrome cast I have on the same TV and network.
I don't have to wait, it's pretty much out of the box. I have tried stock 5.1.1, rooted 5.1.1, CM12 nightlies, and all AOSP roms available. I feel like it's an issue with the Google Cast app? I'll try 5.1 and see if the situation changes tomorrow.
I haven't even bothered rooting mine yet, as this issue goes right down into the system. Even moving around the menu their is a 1 second delay in the sound. Only goes away with a reboot.
I think I may have found my issue, it seems that when I put the TV into PC mode to fix the overscan I get this sound lag after the TV turns off and then back on again. still troubleshooting it though.
Waited a while to get some new nightlies out and still the same problem. Tried 3 different TVs, all casted audio is delayed and has to be reset. Guess i have a junker now

Audio and Video Won't Play?

Hi, ever since I got my G928T I've been having an extremely strange problem where video and audio will not play (regardless of source). This means nothing out of the speakers , and in the case of YouTube, the video being frozen on the first frame.
I've done a factory firmware reset through Kies, and am now rooted running the new custom kernel released a few days ago. I also converted /system, /data, and /cache to f2fs.
However, regardless of what I do, the problem persists.
The only way I've been able to do anything about this problem is by placing a phone call and then ending it. I have no idea why, but this will always fix the audio and sometimes the video for a short period of time.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening? The times when the phone call doesn't fix it are extremely annoying; I practically run my life on my phone and the inability to play media isn't a good thing.
Thanks!
A little more detail with the calling: every single time I want to play a different YouTube video, I have to open the dialer, place a call, and go back to YouTube for the video go begin playback.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm still trying to find a solutuon!
I dont know i mean trying to find the answer does anyone know this plz give the answer ok
Furthermore, this issue isn't solely audio and video, it's every single sound throughout the OS (including keyboard clicks and tap sounds).
Very odd, I really don't know what to do :/
MAY HAVE FOUND A FIX!! I disabled AdaptSound and SoundAlive with Titanium Backup and I've yet to experience any issues.
This may be what we need!
Let me know if it works for you guys!
I also installed Viper4Audio, and used force enable for the super high audio quality driver.
EDIT: Does not seem to always work; instances of failure have still ocurred
They do, however, seem to be somewhat less frequent...
Good luck everyone!
So a bit more info: ever since installing Viper and disabling said apps via Titanium Backup, I find that most of the time I simply need to press the lock button when the song audio/video isn't working and that'll fix it. I have no idea why turning the screen off would make the phone to play the sound, but that's where I'm at now..

Glitch when watching videos

Hello everyone, I want to share with you a problem that I met with my S8 since I have it (<1 week).
Everything works fine except when the screen shows a video, whatever it's on YouTube, FB, Twitter, or even integrated videos on other apps, on the screen appears some randomly placed lines of pixel that are not refreshing, like a lag, and generally it makes the phone crash and reboot.
This problem is kind of random also, maybe 80% of the time.
Also this problem doesn't occurs when watching GIF or playing games
From my point of view, I have no clue if the issue is software or hardware.
For now all I tried is :
- Factory reset from the recovery
- Factory reset from Odin
- Safe mod boot (and it is still doing the same problem)
- Installed Android 8.0 beta
- tried to modify the animations on the development mode
- modified the screen resolution
And nothing is working. For now I didn't wanted to root it and install a custom ROM, because I don't know if it will change anything.
Anyway if you have an idea what it could be I would be really thankful. Also I heard that some had an issue with random reboots, but i've never seen a post mentioning this issue.
My s8 is a SM-G950F
Did you find any solution?
