Leo cant playback a 2 mintue clip -_-

I did some recording, of nothing in particular, just around the house and after I finished I went to play it, and after about 5 minutes I assume it must of frozen or something as it was still on that loading screen...
Another faiure by htc -_- , has anyone had the same problems and/or found solutions?
Thanks

My HD2 has no problems as you're describing, so your post title is completely misleading.
However, have you tweaked the recording settings? Are you storing the footage on your Micro SD? What speed is it?
We need more info to try to help you

Yeah I am saving it to memory card, but Im not sure what speed it is, theres a 2 with a circle round it, does that help?
thanks for the response

That's means it's a class 2 card, which is slow, trying changing where it stores to say like the internal memory and see if the problem persists. If it doesn't, then buy yourself a class 4 or 6 micro SD card.

ahh ok, well that sucks
Hopefully amazon will do a full return, do they sell them as class 2/4/6 or is it just random?

I just made a video of 4:45 and it played back instantly. Took about a second on the loading screen.
Do us a favour - stop finding faults and then posting them and instantly claiming a fail on the part of HTC. You need to investigate issues a little more before start complaining. How about starting with the attitude that there may be something wrong, rather than the attitude that there is something wrong.
I am using a 16GB Class 2 SanDisk card, and saving vid directly to the card, so unless your card is faulty, I can't see it being that.

As johncmolyneux stated it's probably just your sd card is screwed, you could try just reformatting and see if that helps. If you decide to buy a new SD card, they will clearly state their speed, whether it be class 2, 4 or 6. Obviously the faster you go the more you'll pay.

Yeah maybe I'll try formatting, if not I guess I'll have to return it

I have tried formatting it, yet t still cant seem to play even 13 seconds worth of video. I switched the save locations to the device, still nothing.
I do however have a hunch, there is 1 video that I recorded that I can play on there, and its one I took the night I got the phone, before switching my settings and installing extra modes from damien123_666, so maybe the settings are too high quality and the phone is strugging with them? Maybe when I update the rom it will be more able to cope with higher quality videos
thoughts?

If you can bear it without too much hassle, do a hard reset and see if the problem persists. It sounds like you could be on the right track, but I'm sure there's a lot of people who have done the camera tweaks. Maybe ask in the thread in question to see if anyone has noticed this problem.

Recording failed

Is anyone else getting a recording failed error while taking HD video. Sometimes it happens after a few seconds or up to a few minutes or not at all. I am stock rooted with the latest update and drm removed. I don't think it has anything to do with this sine on the sprint forums complete stock users expierence the same thing. Does anyone know how t fix this?

Corrupt file system on the SD card? Try backing up all your files and then reformatting the card and try again.

Not a prob. Let me know how it works out for ya.

I have not modified my phone in any way, and I have had this happen a few times as well on highest resolution videos.
Starts camera just fine.. then about 15 seconds into recording it says, "Warning, recording failed."
I would say maybe 2-3 times has this happened to me so far, and I have recorded dozens of videos, so it is a once in awhile thing. Still a bit annoying though.

Actually yes, I filmed a ho-ho-rendous (yes from the sprint ad) christmas light display in my neighbor hood. Worked fine.

I used to have this happen to me only when I was on a custom rom.So I Formated my card which was a pain cause I had to backup 14gb but it has worked for me.No more record failed message.

Interesting, I may have to give that a try. I just tried four tests on stock Froyo (DK28), which I know isn't final, but I was hoping this issue would be fixed. On two of my tests, I recorded for longer than I ever have on the highest res (7 minutes and 8 minutes), I stopped both those recordings manually. My other two tests failed around 25 seconds and 35 seconds. So it's still hit-or-miss for me. I think backing up and reformatting the SD card is next.

I have this problem as well. I also tried reformatting my sd card in an attempt to cure my Epic of this disease to no avail. Anyone else have any suggestions? Or can it be the rom I'm using (Midnight 2.5)?

I tried reformatting as well. It seemed to work for a while but I'm getting the error again. Don't think it's the ROM, it's happening to me on stock Froyo the same as it happened on stock Eclair

Happens to me once in a while as well on stock 2.1

The problem is that the sd card isn't fast enough for reliable hd recording. If you lower quality it will work perfectly. If you reformat sd it will work in hd for a while. If you get a faster sdcard, you'll be set as well. Be sure to read speed test reviews and not just go by the speedclass claimed by the manufacturer. A lot are fast until they get some data then slow down significantly.

Another thing i notice is that with 2.1, the epic records in 3gp and with 2.2.1, it records in mp4, i believe. Can anyone confirm this?

I agree with the card too slow opinion. I did a side by side at the same time and resolution with the evo and epic. The epic always choked and the file wad corrupt. If I did short tests, it worked mostly. During playback and looking at the specifics with videospec, the evo compressed more and it's quality showed it, but it never stopped recording. Changing to a different brand card did not really fix anything.
This is also another reason why I dislike the epic. A second reason, kind of loosely relating to this topic, I don't like the epic with high quality audio recording problems. It studders and skips. The evo was amazing sounding and zero problems.
I'm giving the evo shift some SERIOUS thought right now. I am VERY tempted to go get one tomorrow morning before work.

The 16GB card that comes with the Samsung is only a class 2. It's not capable of keeping up with the recording. Get a class 4 or higher. The video will fail at random times due to varying bit rates of the scene that is being recorded. I bought a class 4, and so far haven't had any issues with the "recording failed". Although, I haven't used it enough since I got the card to be 100% sure.

What is the highest class our epics can use. I saw a class 10 but I read somewhere that the epic can run up to a class 6. Anybody know? Thanks

Atrix video recording issue/problem!It's freeze

Hi guys!I bought Motorola Atrix one month ago..and since the first time I record a video,I noticed that sometimes(not always)the video looks like freeze.
Yesterday I take 10 minutes of video(1gb lol),and during recording it's freeze 3 times!
After I stopped the video, I watch it,it made the video 3x faster than it is.
Obviously it lost the audio/video sync..
I have the stock rom with 2.3.4(it is the latest version available in Italy)without Root.
This is very annoying..please help me!
Sorry for my english!

It happened to me with CM7 ba2tf. Not every time. Sometimes. But I can never tell what caused it.
I thought it was CM7 bug with Atrix, but you are on stock.. Anyone else having this problem?

I start to think it's a hardware problem..

I'm having exactly the same problem... not really sure why though, but it happened on CM7 and Stock ROM, I also tried to record on the microSD and the internal memory (both options) with the same results... I'm hoping this is not a hardware problem, otherwise I'll have to sell my phone. I use it to record all kind of stuff...
Hope someone can help us here!
Thank you!

Judging by the time (10 minutes) and size (1 GB), I'm guessing the problem lies with the SD card being too slow. Try using a higher class SD card and defragmenting it first. From my experience, fragmentation kills SD card performance and defragmenting it makes a lot of difference for read/write speed.

Did anyone find a solution to this?
cheers,

Has your s4 frozen on you yet?

Has your phone frozen to the point you had to reboot?? How many times...
I have not purchased a total of 3 of these devices what is for me another was for my buddy and one was for my girlfriend. I personally have experienced one freeze that made me reboot the phone my girlfriend who I convince to switch from an iPhone was beginning to love the phone but now is angry because she has been experiencing freezes a total of three times she just got the phone under a week. I'm curious to know how many others have experienced a freeze since they got the phone.

I haven't had mine freeze on me yet and I've had it about a week.

I haven't had one freeze and I've had it since launch. Are you rooted?

Not one freeze. I preordered mine and it's been golden.

Nope none of the phones have been rooted. She claims that the music player just got stuck causing the whole phone freeze to the point where she couldn't answer call. She says it's happened to her more than once. When my phone froze it was just once and the whole screen froze and couldn't do anything had to reboot and then things have been fine since then.

My phone freezes at least once per day if not more. Not sure why...

Have not had 1 freeze myself, I don't count the one time I flashed a ROM and was stuck at loading screen so just went back to my restore

No freezes for me since April 26th, the day I received my preorder S4.

Not one lock up. Maybe she downloaded a bogus app?

Got the phone the morning of the release and I have been using it extensively since then and not a single freeze, crash, or reboot, or even the slightest amount of lag for that matter! :thumbup:
Sometimes crap like this happens with some random apps, if the problem consists maybe factory reset and reinstall each app one at a time to possibly identify the problem app.
That's just if it is an app though, I hope you can figure it out, this phone is unbelievable and the first of many many phones that has yet to have any sort of hiccups for me.

This is REALLY werid.. so I`ve had this phone since launch and it has been 100% amazing. I`ve had 16gb SD card for years that I have been using so I thought it's time to get a big upgrade, so I now have a 64gb class 10, which also has been solid for 4-5+ days. all of a sudden it froze on me. I rebooted many times and even switched out my old 16GB card and still would freeze (probably 1-2 minutes once its plugged in) I even did a factory reset just cause I didn't have too much on here and its still doing it . never had an issue like this before.

I've fortunately had the above microSD for about 6 months and it has been fine. Seems like ~10% of them are defective.
I still don't trust mine and make sure I always back up important folders to dropbox via the dropsync app just in case it decides to fail on me

Samsung infact, though I must admit this may be fault of the SD card, I found a rouge folder which was read only that was used to do a mounting script. once I deleted this windows I have not had an issue *yet* on my phone.. perhaps a false alarm!

No freezing on mine yet, but there has been a little lag.

That's definitely not supposed to happen. I had an S3 before this and this thing flies in comparison. I would try and figure out what you did that is causing your issue/perhaps in a defective or hardware issue and you should get a replacement.
And @op I think the issue your talking about was fixed with the update from MDC to MDL, I went straight to AOSP so I never had the smearing issue people were having, but I'm pretty sure they got rid of that from what I heard. Could be wrong though. Have you updated to MDL?

Slow unresponsive tablet, check this out

One issue on android tablets ia there are programs that run on boot. Com.Samsung.indexservice is one of these programs. I rebooted about ten minutes ago, and system is still running at or near max cpu frequency. If you shut gour tablet down all the time, each time you turn your tablet back on there will be a long delay before indexaeevice finishes running. I seldom turn my tablet off, unless i need to reboot. Get an app like "cool tools" and you can check this out.
15min and its still running.
There its fiinishing up. 17 min
Before seeing the best performance, wait twenty min. This happens on my other android devices as well, it jhst a different program.
The second is a little more nebulous. When swiping across its been reported there can be a slow responce, maybe having to double swipe. It seems to me that note is more sensitive to off angle swipes, More so than my other android tablets. What i mean is gou need to be closer to a 90% swipe from the edge, for proper responed. Pen is definitely better, and i often use the pen instead. I dont notice misses with the pen.

This is not the "indexing service has stopped" issue you asked about.
Every time you restart Android runs the index service to index your sd cards. This is normal and what the OP is talking about.

since the day we got root, i've had this frozen. it's still a pretty laggy tablet for a $650 price. i'm pretty sure it's got mostly to do with TW. using the dev rom on my s4 and that thing flies now.
the galaxy note 8 and gn 2 work fine with TW though. both are exynos4 - one on 4.1.2 (gn2) and other on 4.2.2. i'm supposing some change in 4.3 or the version of TW on 4.3 must be slowing things down a good bit.

I dont understand the lag. My tablet does not show any lag issues at all. My p600 is smooth enough for me to run in power saving mode most of the time. When i read these post it doesnt seem like its the same tablet at all. By any chance are you using a high speed microsd . This could be a difference in machines. Just wondering?
Have you tried one of the cpu monitor programs to see if something is causing it. Ive had good results with "cool tool". Look for the tick to name app using most cpu time. Turn most everything else off.
As a very simple comparison, quadrant is 3 times the score, and an tu tu is twice the score of my asus tf700, which is running the latest cromix i. My day to experience supports this.

biggest lags comes with browsing the old reader (don't use apps when websites are available and i prefer tabs) and having scroll mark as read on. the verge is laggy sometimes depending on the images. play store stutters until the app icons show up.
chrome is the worst with the web lag, but none remove it completely.
all video players that i've tried (bs, xbmc - so far the best, mx, archos...) experience at least one frame dropped every minute on a 720p high profile l3 @ only 2.5Mb/s with ac-3 audio. if it doesn't render the audio it'll play perfectly. even my daughter's memopad hd7 with a cheap ol' mediatek chip plays better - granted it's at a lower res.
hopefully an AOSP rom will come out that'll fix a bunch of this sluggishness. as soon as i switched to a GPE rom on my s4 it's blazingly fast. granted, an AOSP rom won't be as drastic since it won't have access to the closed drivers a ported GPE does.

I'm curious, what size external sd card, are you using? This isn't normal behavior. I don't mean to sound like a broken record, but it's likely that you have a corrupt file somewhere, on your device. Mine runs if I remove my card, and make a lot of changes, on my pc, and re-insert the card. But, once it finishes indexing, I don't really see any significant additional activity, from IndexService, even after a power down, unless there were significant changes to the cards contents. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2483944

Although freezing it definitely works, it's not ideal, in my opinion. If you change, or update content on your device, often, you won't be able to access the files, you've changed (the tablet doesn't know things have changed, and can't find the files).

On every tablet i own there are indexing type programs that run on boot. Im using a 64 gig card with 32 gig internal. One of the reasons i dont like stock galllery is, you cannot control where it searches for files except by .nomedia file in directory. It then loads up book covers and the like that i dont want in gallery.
Size of memory probably does effect time but that depends on how full it is. If a person uses slow memory class cards, it probably will slow indexing. I think having a lot of web storage options may be the true culprit for the length of time it takes to index. However i dont know what samsung is doing so its only speculation on my part. I wasnt complaining. I expect it, but ive been reading about all the lags and complaints and so on in forums. If you take program updates, indexing and other housekeeping chores that happen when you turn your tablet on then yes it might lag, but only for a few min. If your tablet has been off for a day or two, program updates could take a while. By leaving my tabket on most of the time i dont have to go through very often. Thats why i suugested making judgment calls in the first twenty or so min might be misleading to what the tablet can to. Personly i dont have an issue with it.
The only way you can tell whats happening is by observation. My time may or may not be normal and the only way to find out is to use something like "cool tools" to find out.
This tablet is so much faster than my infinity. Ita a real joy to use, and after trying out a couple of other options im glad i dug a little deeper in the pocket to get it.

I wasnt complaining. I expect it, but ive been reading about all the lags and complaints and so on in forums. If you take program updates, indexing and other housekeeping chores that happen when you turn your tablet on then yes it might lag, but only for a few min. If your tablet has been off for a day or two, program updates could take a while. By leaving my tabket on most of the time i dont have to go through very often. Thats why i suugested making judgment calls in the first twenty or so min might be misleading to what the tablet can to. Personly i dont have an issue with it.
The only way you can tell whats happening is by observation. My time may or may not be normal and the only way to find out is to use something like "cool tools" to find out.
This tablet is so much faster than my infinity. Ita a real joy to use, and after trying out a couple of other options im glad i dug a little deeper in the pocket to get it.

I agree, it's an amazing device, especially when compared to the Infinity. I also have a 64 gb card, and my experience is similar to yours. It's good to see familiar 'faces' in the forum.
