same problem described in these other threads, haven't found a real solution yet. My music skips every time the phone loses signal or switches signal, has been happening to me specifically since i left froyo.
anyone know a fix? it's not the biggest deal but it gets really annoying after awhile, and doesn't seem like a problem we should be having.
i'm use poweramp and i'm on cm9 but it's happened to me on every rom since i upgraded from acs1.2

Are you talking about streaming or playing from your sd card? If you are streaming then nothing is going to fix that. Streaming means you are downloading the music as it is playing so if you lose signal you lose music. You would need to find some streaming music player that would cache a significant amount of music ahead so it had something to play for a few seconds if you lose signal. If it is from your sd card, it may need reformatting or get a faster sd card.
I have this problem too.. And he's right I don't remember it being an issue in froyo. I have the stock sd card and it went through a long period of never messing up so I really wouldn't think it was that.
I've had the same issue playing music from the sd card. It sounds almost like a digital hiccup.

I noticed that something changed with GB and the delay with accessing the sd card.

Most GB audio playback for me is smooth sailing compared to 2.2 and 2.1 Android, but it's unlistenable while using GPS navigation (like Google Nav), sometimes silenced for minutes at a time. And I have the guide voice muted. What about accessing data (on 3 or 4G) or GPS causes this crap? It seems like GB is more efficient about the phone's resources in all cases but this, and it's a really bad step backward from Eclair, let alone Froyo.
I've had this problem since 2.3 but when I switched to cm9 and started using the miui music player it stopped
I have this "issue" too. Playing music with 3g off to save battery, turn 3g on, and it "hiccups" for a few seconds. But once 3g is on it's fine. I also notice while downloading large files (or tethering) over 4g music "hiccups" and skips.
So it is sounding like since GB the radio when searching for signal sucks a tremendous amount of juice which we thought caused a lot of reboots on the GB leaks.

have this issue also. when I'm on my breaks at work and I'm outside (presumably on cell towers) and walk into my building (which has relays for the parts of the building that have no reception) i get a skip during the handoff, or when switching for 4g back to 3g.
during these handoffs i think the processor has to spend a moment too long making sure the phone is a phone and prioritizes being a phone above all else, like being and mp3 player.
it's worst for me when im in a part of the building that has a relay and is near a window. think it switches back and forth between the towers and building relays.
just my best non knowledge based guess.
i generally just run mp3 from my sd card.
thanks for the replies guys! i'm guessing then that there isn't an acknowledged fix yet in the community .
explosivequack, so the MIUI music player doesn't have this problem? I would love to stick with poweramp especially since i paid for it, but if miui player can do pretty much the same stuff then I might give that a try if it truly doesn't skip. thanks.
@kennyglass i'm pretty sure it isn't my SD card. i switched my stock one out for one of the fast ones a year ago, plus it never happened on froyo like the others said so i doubt that's the issue anyway.
i was hoping it was a 2.3 issue but i've been on cm9 since alphas and there's no change. I can always tell exactly when my music will skip if i'm driving on a familiar route because of the 4g deadzones.
Have you tried reverting to the EC05 modem to see if that helps? It is sounding more and more like heavy battery draw while trying to regain signal causing the skips.

I posted this question in another forum, and have some great responses so far, but I wanted to see what people's opinions were here as well:
This topic may sound a bit strange, but I'm wondering what people have done/plan to do once they have upgraded to a new phone after using the DX. Ideally, I'd like to use it for multimedia/music purposes but I'm wondering if there have ever been any ROMs or anything similar that could perhaps save some internal storage space or increase battery life by getting rid of the "data" and phone/radio aspects of the device. I do have the official Motorola car and home/multimedia docks so I can still find some realistic uses for my DX (especially if I'm trying to save battery on my new S3) but I wanted to see if anyone has ever done this and what ideas people may have. I realize that battery life could potentially be significantly better with no data usage (aside from occasional wi-fi) though, to be honest, I don't even know if what I'm asking about is even technically possible (i.e- creating a ROM for this purpose only) but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. Thanks!
It makes a good streaming media player.
There aren't any ROMs that remove the phone functionality, but there's always airplane mode.

Hello!
I bought my tablet, a TF101 16GB wifi, a year ago, when it just came out.
I also bought a dock since my desire was to use it for work. I take notes, use internet with a wifi mini router for mail, and other office uses. I quite never use it for gaming, only some browsing at home when I do not want to switch on my mac.
I had stock kernel (before ICS), rooted stock kernel, ICS (rooted and not rooted) and now I am trying Jelly bean (not official).
I also tried different cooked roms.
During this year, I often had a lot of problems (kind of problem depends on rom installed):
- random reboots;
- encryption unsuccessful problems;
- various kinds of hangs
and I always had to do a factory reset (firmware reinstall in a lot of cases) and trying to recover my backups made with different tools.
In this way I can confirm that I never have been able to use it at work because of its weakness.
Now, I cannot understand if it is an Android O.S. problem, a specific problem of MY TF101, a problem of ASUS tablets or what.
Previously I had an IPAD (first model) and I never had such problems (but I cannot do so much with it)...
What have I to do?
Sell it and buy another one?
Sell it and leave tablets world?
Sell it and buy another brand of tablets?
Warranty is expired....
Thank you for your considerations....

PS sorry for my english....
Hi,
I had similar issues. I've read somewhere that this is caused mainly by two things. NVIDIA drivers and slow flash memory of the tf101 (slownes of the tf101). So, if you get a good price I would consider selling it. The NVIDIA driver problem is causing the reboots because the CPU can't be brought back from sleep or something like that. A workaround is to use this app:
(Wake Lock - PowerManager in google play)
and set it to the first option, PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK. This drains a bit the battery, however I've got rid of the most reboots. Give a try.
jokob
My opinion would be that its an issue of ASUS firmware. Most (would say all but i dont use encryption) if not all of your problems would be solved by custom firmware.

I also have the TF 101 and have experienced many of the same problems, random lockups, FC's, etc. Since this was my first Tablet I attributed this all to the Android system. I had also intended to use this as a note taking tool for work but due to the instability I could not. I recently purchased the TF 700 as a replacement but ran into the same issues I also purchased the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 at the same time and used both Tablets side by side There really is no comparison the note is rock solid and super fast. The note taking functions are incredible.
My only real complaint is how little I've used the dock.. it cost me $150 and I basically use it as a battery or portable charger...
Yeah, I've experienced SOD and RR, but only since I've been using nightlies and non-stable roms. I've been considering changing tablets because my brother wants my tablet, but I think I'd rather buy him a new one because I don't think he can handle the flashing and ****..
For the record, it's been a little more than a year (I bought it around.. end of June, after a ****ty junior year, I decided to reward myself), but I still really like my tablet. Just not the dock.
That's to bad, only issues I experienced were rare lock ups and few random reboots. These were all primarily caused by the first release of ics.
I successfully used this tablet for school and my business. Not to heavy into gaming but did get slightly addicted to shadow gun for a time. My primary use for it lately is media and using QuickBooks mobile for proposals and invoicing while on the road.
I have had 3 tfs for the last year and all have had the same stability, all pre b70. I always flashed roms with nv flash.
I absolutely love this tablet, for the price, it's probably the best tablet around...or was for the last year.

Ok with troubles u got it's usually gone with wrong kernel or older version try update new kernel version.
I using this one nearly a year and I didnt have any trouble about them again. the beginning when I got it I have a lot trouble like you but when I update and try and try I find out those problems about kernel and ROM you using maybe doesnt fit.
Now I using Cyanogen 10 by RaymanXF, very cool now

I had none of those problems on the latest stock ics i only get these on nightlys?
its funny, that the problems that u guys comment and increasingly Complain upon about RR and Crashes... they happen rarely to me.. its all about the right choice of kernels and roms... Combine and find out which suits u the best !

I couldn't agree more... now with JB is running smother than ever and didn't had any reboots, SOD's... nothing :good:
Ive never had any real issue with my TF101. Bought in the month they were released in the UK, got the keyboard through the cheap deal. Stock rom, never rooted and always upgraded OTA without wiping anything.
Mostly used it for reading RSS feeds, emails and a few websites. With the odd simple game, nothing too stressful for it though so I suspect it rarely runs flat out.
I got the keyboard because I thought Id use it, But I think I last plugged the tablet into it about three months ago.
Ive probably had 4 OS crashes that Ive noticed and probably about the same random application crashes (mostly browser) The only app that always crashes in Angry Birds space. Every time I play a certain level it crashes part way though so Im stuck on that level.
The only annoying thing I remember is that the wifi doesnt always connect to my Mifi. But it has no trouble with my home access point so I think thats the Mifi rather than the tablet.
I wouldnt say its perfect but its been almost pain free for me.
I recently bought Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 and I was surprised how it has none of the issues the Transformer had. Don't get me wrong - the main problem with TF101 is slow NAND (causing lags when saving, updating etc.) and browsing experience. Apart from that it is quite brilliant. You have to remember that its the first generation of Android tablets - it had its problems and Asus is proving to have quite a few problems with quality control (TF201 was the worst example of this) and uses worse components to lower the price. Anyway - Note 10.1 is brilliant because it solved the problems I had - the browsing is very fast (like on my i7 laptop), no lags whatsoever and the stylus makes taking notes and drawing designs for new games much easier (I used to have a bunch of paper sheets all over my desk before with drawings, projects, TODOs and notes - now I use Lecture Notes for that).
I've had a love/hate relationship with my tf101...I love the keyboard...I can't remember the last time I removed it. Nothing beats a physical keyboard for me. The hate part has mostly been the browsers. It boggles the mind that it seems to be impossible to get a browser to just work...to do what a desktop browser can...every time, all the time.
Instead, to get the function of a desktop browser, I have 8 browsers installed. For the most part, my default is Opera...it works on most things and is relatively fast on most pages. Then, without warning, some page functions just won't work. Dialog boxes are a particular source of angst...as are videos.
Dialog boxes are an issue with most android browsers i've used...some work on some pages...some don't work on the same pages. Videos are completely hit and miss on Opera. I found the best, (and by that I mean the most reliable), browser for that has been the stock browser.
....until I stumbled upon a suggestion to try Boat browser. It has so far proven to be the most stable, reliable, consistent android browser and is my new goto browser. It's not perfect but it's as close to a real desktop browser I've found so far.
I know the video problems are with the browsers themselves since netflix runs flawlessly...in fact, almost everything does. I had some issues with occasional random reboots back in the first ics days but haven't been a problem in forever.
The random reboots on angry birds space isn't a real deal breaker...I can't think of any apps I use on a regular basis, (remember when we used to call them programs), that don't' work or fail on a regular basis.
It's the bloody browsers that have been my one consistent, overwhelming, holding myself back from frisbeeing this thing against a wall, frustration.
At some point, I'll try a new mod....it worked a treat keeping my Motorola Milestone alive and useful.
I even accidentally ran over this thing with my car and except for a slight warping of the body, not a thing broke....not even the screen..
I've considered moving on up to the infinity or some other tablet...if samsung makes a keyboard I'll really be tempted, but so far, this puppy has been a real trooper,..one of my least idiotic purchases.
After 8 months of no issues with my TF-101, I had to do a factory reset. My TF became unstable the last couple of weeks. It was constantly locking up. I thought it may be the kernel I was using (with stock .27), but no matter what kernel I flashed, the tablet was locking up every day even without overclocking. My guess it was one of the apps I installed recently. It wasn't too big a deal though. After wiping, I'm back to running guevor's kernel at 1.4GHz with no issues whatsoever.
I've bought my tf101 3 months ago and I'm happy. First month I had some problems related with suddenly app closing but it was solved with latest ics stock update (.27). Gmail was very unstable too but was solved with update as well. Despite of that i was very curious about root capabilities and custom roms. I still have a stable tablet, overclocked at 1.4. I have the keyboard dock too.
Btw hi, this is my first msg after being anonimous for 3 months xD
Maybe these problems you are reporting are related to hardware issues or firmware only present in older tablets?
Does stock updates touch something in the tablet that custom roms can't do?

Problem raise always when a specific amount of free space is used.

Hi Everyone! So I've been presented with this problem as soon as I flashed the factory image of Kitkat 4.4 on my Nexus 4.
Audio stutters momentarily on random occasions, whether its audio or video playback.
So to solve this, I flashed GNOME II PAEK 1.1 ROM which is based on KitKat 4.4.2, still the same problem.
This never happened on 4.2.2 or 4.3, we did have deadlocks on 4.3 but never audio problems.
Lately, I've noticed the audio stuttering when I'm surfing the web using built in Chrome and the other time I noticed when I turned on the WiFi using the toggle in quick settings.
Some fine mess the user is in these days. I wonder what google has been thinking lately, don't they test the software properly before the release anymore?
I would like to hear your opinion, has anyone else noticed those slight stutters?
Regards.
P.S I've searched over the internet and many people with different android devices are having this problem on KitKat.
I guess it is part of the "DSP Tunneling" feature that puts more parts of audio processing into the DSP instead of the CPU.
It might cause some issues right now, but in the big picture Google is making Audio processing more battery friendly.
So i personally support it and hope they do not just revert it back to the old way. It could need some improvements, no doubt they will come time after time.

If its battery friendly, it could be good, but the users needs a fix soon.
Mainly because not everyone has the time to root their device and flash previous Android version after the update and those who choose not to update, they're stuck with annoying update reminder(talking about the general users here).
I'm all for the improvements but not at the cost of broken features. Besides, I've been monitoring the battery drain manually on stock and custom ROMS and I didn't notice much noticeable change. Lets see what happens in the future.
Pretty sure audio tunnelling is Nexus 5 only

Before I take the plunge along with many others
Can anybody who has updated to 4.4 with the official LG update give there view on Pros and cons of the update
A reading a few its not much faster and no extras !
eg) Faster ? Dim Screen Problem ? Extra Apps?
I like
Generally I think it is a bit smoother and generally everything is running better for me some apps like mxplayer no like kitkat but the stock is fine until they update. Do not update if you want to be able to switch between roms, tried to reinstall cwm/twrp and for me gets stuck in fastboot so you will need to be patient till they find a new exploit. New keyboard in black is pretty awesome and transparent bars definitly refine the look as well as the white notification icons. Couple new lg apps like On screen phone so can control on pc and copy files etc pretty cool but I think its novelty value.

If you are not intending on going aosp it is definitely worth the upgrade as you should see apps running better because of the way kitkat uses the ram, I have to say even though not a huge difference in UI it definitely is better optimized and using less ram for the system. Definitely if you can get 4.4.2 do it, if you choose to stay lg stock I would suggest you install xposed framework and change it how you want to be :victory:

I switched to BS Player Free as my standard video player as I have long felt it to be the better choice.
Lastpass!
Lastpass Premium users will love the upgrade. The Lastpass app can natively fill in usernames and passwords on websites in Chrome, without having to activate the Lastpass input method. It just detects the login page, pops up a prompt, and you hit yes to log in. Fantastic.
Aside from that, it seems smoother. When you swipe down the notification menu, the settings button is in the corner where it should be, so that's nice. Oh, and the LG keyboard (which I love to bits) now has a bunch of themes. There's a chance that I just didn't notice them before the update.
Basically, I've had no problems at all, and a bunch of apps are now able to make use of Kitkat features. It's not so much "why would I upgrade?" as "why on Earth wouldn't I upgrade?"

I like bsplayer but the ac3 issue the player during the codec dispute leans me toward the stock player. I use bsplayer as my backup player for troubled files.
One issue I've run into with 4.4 build 20a are phantom screen presses when turning on the screen again after not using the g pad for a bit. I usually just urn off the screen for 5 seconds and then turn it back off and everything is working again. I should add I did a dirty install over 4.2.2 to 4.4.2, so chances are a wipe of the data would fix it. I'm going to do the 2 cache wipes and see if I get the problem again. I'm posting this here to see if anyone else has the problem.

Was it really broken to begin with? I found that once you got used to knocking at the right place with the right force applied, it works almost all the time. The KK update seems not to change much, if anything about this.
Now, for some reason KK has been causing the stock video player to skip and hold frames much more than usual. I use it to play videos out via slimport a lot, and after the update a simple .mp4 was skipping forward several seconds on video, until the audio caught up. Must be some sort of memory leak, but any thoughts on what can be done? Is it possible to de-install and then reinstall the stock player without factory reset?
MX Player was my go-to before and it still works. I'd switched to the stock because I don't like the ads in the free version of MX, but danged if it isn't one of the best stock players around.
Mark
Maybe because I had the G2 to compare it against, but after KK my G2 would immediately turn on first time nearly every time. My GPad still takes 3-5 tries even after KK.
The way I solved the issue with knock on/off is I knock three times instead of two.

For me, 4.4.2 seems a little smoother and faster. I was using Nova Launcher because the LG launcher seemed a bit less fluid. It is much better now. Nova is still smoother doing some things but not enough for me to feel I have to keep using it. I have gone back to using the stock launcher.
Other than that, not a big deal although I didn't expect it to be. It is not a huge Android update update. 4.4 is mostly just smoother.

I agree everything seems smoother and faster, web browsing is definitely faster, I don't notice any real difference with the screen brightness but I never really had a problem with my screen. For my use not much of a difference from 4.2.2 but overall I am happy with the improvements Kit Kat adds to the GPad.
