[Q] Screen Flickering & DPI mod

Had my Nexus 7 for 24 hours know & its amazing but the I've only just noticed that sometimes my screen flickers & I have to lock & unlocked my nexus 7 to stop it, is this due to the DPI mod I'm using to give me a TabletUI or is this a fault?
Thanks in advance

Seems like its a problem regarding tegra 3 devices. It should be fixed in a rom update eventually.

Take the brightness control out of Auto and see if it helps

Mine seems to flicker only when using Tapatalk. I haven't seen it do this on the home screen, browser or when playing games at all but every time I use tapatalk I see it at least once.
*edit* I also remember seeing it flicker when using the Facebook app.

@fabi280 Thanks

Thanks, this should be interesting...

There we go....

This app seems to do things that tasker can already do...
In fact, this app does only two things.. Turns WiFi on or off, and turns sync on or off.
Disappointing. I was expected some CPU management.
Well at least it's free. But I still say save your time and just get tasker which does way more anyway.

The only thing it needs to "learn" is when you're home or at work and how often you check apps that need to sync. Lol.

YouTube won't stay signed in?

Every time I close the YouTube app and then go back into it it starts to sign me in again. It won't stay logged in. Anyone else having these issues. On stock 4.2.2 and Franco r90.

I did those steps and it worked until YouTube updated again. I think its just the latest update.

I'm having issues with not only the sign in issue, but also videos buffering only for a min or 2 then completlely stopping and freezing the app.

It's a youtube problem.
Happens on the gs3 too.

Has anyone noticed a huge buffering issue with YouTube? Disabling HD doesn't help neither. Almost impossible to watch an entire video uninterrupted

WiFi Problem

With stock ROM rooted the WiFi will just cut off but the icon will say it has full connection. Will this be solved if I changed the ROM? It only cuts off for the browser.

Maybe you would want to check the wifi sleep policy again.
See if it is getting off with screen lock.

I checked the sleep policy and set it to never switch off. However can someone tell me where are the WiFi drivers. BTW I am using stock kernel
If I flash evo x ROM will that fix my problem ?

depends,
the scope of the issue is wide,
better just get the wifi drivers,
search in the development section for the drivers

1 month slow down

It's been a month and I have tons of apps and now the phones all of a sudden lagging. Anyone else notice this?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Like everything lags or just particular apps/functions (sms, recent apps, etc)? Have you tried wiping cache in recovery?

R u rooted and do u have a recovery?
How about using the built in memory cleaner that frees up ram.add a swap along with your ram.I guess more info is needed to help u

Use holo launcher hd as ur default launcher....im convinced touchwiz has leaks
I havr advanfed task killer installed and let it run idling. ...normally I never use it but on the rare super lag I kill everything in memory (I.e. no auto kill as normally android does better memory management on its own)
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app

Had mine for exactly one month today and nope, no lags at all.
Are you using Greenify (if rooted)?

i mean yeah it works and all but it doesnt mean it stops the lag lol...

Have a ton of crap on your phone will slow it down, and I'm assuming you already knew this. I'm going to assume that you mean your phone took a massive lag attack all of a sudden.
I'm going to say it's something in your memory that keeps launching itself. What's the last app you installed? How many apps run in the background on your phone?
