[Q] nexus 10 freezes and

Dear All,
Have had the nexus 10 for a few weeks now and love it. Recently though, the tablet has been freezing quite a bit. Usually happens when I am browsing the web. In these instances I have to reboot to get the tablet functional again. Anyone else experience this and if so any suggestions on how to fix the issue? Also how do I check for updates on the nexus 10. The normal About Tablet field under settings does not seem to have the system update option anymore.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
CJ

Check some other threads, I read a lot of people are having reboot/freeze issues whilst using the browser, some have suggested
methods like not upgrading to 4.2.1 and disabling some 2D GPU.

did do a search

I did do a search but it did not provide a clear solution. Some people have said that they removed HD widgets. What widgets are these purple referring to? Also what do you mean when you say disable 2DGPU?
Finally, where is the system updates option in the Jelly bean?
Thank you so much for taking the time to respond.

Basically, it seems to be related to Google Location Services & some apps that use that... You could turn off location services unless needed in Settings... Or you could use a custom ROM... Most custom ROMs include fixes not yet included in stock...

I've got the same issue I have my Gps and location off and I still get reboot in chrome and dolphin browser. Sometimes it freezes during Google play app updates and downloads.
Could be an app could be the os , not hardware so it will get fixed eventually.

I had this issue while on stock 4.2.1 as well. So I put CM10 on there and bye, bye hangs/reboots.

This is a total noob question, but what is CM10?

I'm sorry to disappoint you guys, but on my Nexus ten running CM 10.1-20130205-NIGHTLY-manta i got a freeze and reboot 10 minutes ago.
The wireless bug also does not seem to be fixed. On google Hangouts my wifi connection drops after a few minutes and gets back in seconds, enough for g+ to disconnect from the hangout.
Google needs to fix this soon. Makes the tablet very unusable sometimes -.-

i got no reboot issue at all since the first day
running stock firmware and build number is JOP40F

In latest CM10.1 build 20130205 seems fixed hang or restart issue for me.

Disable Currents and don't use Chrome. Worked for me.

Stock emoji issue?

I recently noticed that when using the stock emojis that there are now a few blank spaces where it appears emojis used to be. I haven't changed any settings, though I was briefly using Go SMS but stopped(and uninstalled it) due to the MMS and other bugs. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this, or is this normal and I just never noticed this before...?

I've always had this issue even after re-flashing the keyboard and completely flashing my phone back to stock.
I think it's some weird issue that everyone experiences, and I'm not really sure how google overlooked it.
(couldn't find anything in google reports)

Hmm that's disappointing, hopefully there's a patch with the next update. Or at lease GO SMS gets their act together and updates their app to fully work with the nexus 4. Thanks for the response!

I just wanted to go ahead and bump this thread. We have had the update for 4.2.2 and still this problem exists for me.
I had maybe one or two blank squares with stock android on my nexus 4 so it wasn't a huge issue but Ive recently flashed a new rom and upon enabling the android emoji support, even more of the tiles came up blank than before. There are about 10 blank tiles scattered throughout.
I have gone into the add on dictionaries in the android keyboard and deleted and re installed emoji for English but it did not affect anything.
Anyone else having this problem or know of a way to fix the issue without having to use another app?

bump
surely others have to be having this issue

i always had the few blank spots on several different roms.
always thought it was an issue with the emoji keyboard itself.
never found an updated version of it though.
i actually dont even use it anymore.
i only use emoji in texts and the emoji options in CM and PA work well

I dont think it would be an issue with the keyboard itself because when i installed it on stock i only had a couple blank tiles and when i installed it on my paranoid android rom there were about 10 randomly blank squares. I dont know if its messing up during installation or what?
and i would be willing to bet that other people have different tiles left blank than i do.
Its just annoying because i can see most peoples emojis but when they happen to use one of the ones that are blank on my phone, they also show up blank in whatever message i am reading (text/twitter) so i see some of them but not all of them

Or at least figure out which ones we are missing.

[Q] Best ROM

Hi guys,
I've used ZOE ROM v7.0 for quite some time now, happily, but after a while, it 'broke': MX Player stopped playing videos, home button isn't recogized anymore (but still working properly), some settings were reset, hold-power-button menu resetted back to 3 items (screenshot+reboot+shutdown), google accounts get's randomly deleted on reboot ever since, etc. I don't know why ( @LeoPosas U NO Y? ).
So, since I want to buy the Google Nexus 5, but release date isn't given away yet, and I need a usable phone tough, I have 2 3 options:
update ZOE to v7.7, or...
update to a premade Android 4.x ROM that also is small and bleeding fast.
grab a random 4.x ROM, get the list of all customizations from @LeoPosas, and apply them all manually
I'm too lazy ass to figure it out myself, 'cuz I'm sure someone has already figured out the same damn thing, and I'm not going to reïnvent the wheel.
So why did my ROM broke, and which one to update to? Thx

Hi, the kind of problems that you had mentioned happens when you don't make a full wipe. I'll appreciated if you make a Full wipe with my toolkit and watching my video on Zoe ROM Thread. Try and let me know your experience.
Regards.

first option; update to version 7.7
but make full wipe prior to installation of 7.7

Awkee... I can't let you know it immediatly, because it happend a few months after flashing, but if it happens again, I'll let you know :highfive:
Now we're talking already: are you planning on a ZOE ICS or JB (does our little phone actually have JB?)

GT540 has up to Android 4.1 or 4.2 I think. 4.1 for sure, not sure about 4.2. It doesn't have 4.3 for sure.

just tested IR with smart tv remote app. worked like a charm. i have not found anything nonfunctional at this time =) looks and runs terrific!

forgot to mention that the build is 4.4.1 as well

two issues?
This ROM is so smooth, no crashes or anything. That being said the Google now voice activation ( OK Google ) and the internet local results by garb shown up on the stock kitkat dialer are not working. The dialer search is only giving results from the device itself
Any word on this?
Thanks!

did you flash the correct gapps for the rom? reflash the kit kat gapps you find from goo.im and it works fine. the rom is very smooth and everything is working out of the gate.

there's a bug with the CPU performance in that if you try and set the max and min values and check "set on boot" they somehow get reset to the default settings or get maxed out. this only happens when "set on boot" is activated.

Just an FYI the CM Nightlies have a CPU bug. Mine was charging for an hour and it gained 8% battery and was so hot I didn't even feel safe holding it. (This is coming from someone who has done alot of crazy and stupid stuff with my phones) The charger was hot as hell as well. Not sure if its a charging issue or CPU clock/voltage issue (it runs a lot hotter then GPE under load) but be warned.
Switched it back to GPE and its fine.. Also keep an eye out for ART, don't have it charging while making the switch (android is upgrading screen). The phone will get molten and I am not joking.

the CPU wasn't an issue in CM10.2 so it's something in CM11...will probably end up going to OmniROM instead.

I havent been having any issues with overheating. in the latest build however there are constantly force closes of the sound search process. not sure what thats about.
Anyone else having issues with the internet search results not coming up in the dialer search bar?
also why is this thread in the general category and not development?

ok google voice activation

yes, i am replying to my own post... apparently if you go to settings -> accounts -> Google -> Search and enable google now, then the "ok Google" hot word that activates search in the persistent search bar on the home screens does not work.
As soon as i disabled google now, the ok google hotword activates voice commands again, as it should.
Is this normal?

How is the camera quality?

Same as it was in CM10.2 pretty much.

Can any of you access the Google+ auto awesome video?
I used to have it on a GPE Rom but looks like it is no longer there on CM11...

Fixed!
I was getting these error messages and all the latest nightlies weren't installing for me either, with no information given with the error message,
So after many hours of messing around, I figured out the problem. I use clockwork to flash my mods. And I downloaded "ROM Manager" from Play Store. When starting the program, I noticed a message saying there was a new version of clockwork available and asked if I wanted to download it. I figured, what the hell, couldn't hurt! So I downloaded, installed it. Then updating to the latest nightly (cm-11-20140525-NIGHTLY-m7.zip) worked! No more problem!
I hope this helps some people install their newest nightlies!!!!#@ Enjoy,

Nexus 6p freezes when installing/updating apps please help

Hello guys, ever since I got my phone. Everytime the phone trying to do update an app or installing one it froze for a new minutes until the apps is installed. It was like that on stock and it is like that on every custom roms I've tried. I don't know if I'm the only one or not. Please help and thank you.

No, just for a few mns until the application is done updating/ installing or un installing Then the screen either hang or locked itself. Like the system did a soft reboot.

It's normal for a device to slow down or lag a little when installing apps sometimes, the screen locking definitely isn't normal though.

Even my does the same
Like it i update am app or install from play store and use a diff app say I'm on whatsapp then when the app is installing it will be freezed no touch works nothing but screen remains as it is

Even when installing app? That's odd. My note 5 doesn't freeze when installing apps or updating them

It's an issue with aosp package installer. You won't see it on other devices as the oems re-write that code.
It's mostly noticeable on anything FB puts out. As they are known for having the worst coded apps on the market.

So far I don't think there is a fix. Can't say about official Google. As I have not run a stock rom since I got my first device. If they have fixed it they have not pushed the fix to aosp which is happening more and more with google

Well as the custom roms sync their source with aosp, then Google has not pushed a fix if there is one. This is happening more and more. Google fixes something but doesn't push it to aosp so it stays broken in 3rd party roms until the devs find a fix

Has this been solved? It's happening to me.

facing same issue. Also my YouTube pause video whenever some app gets updated in background.

Noticed this along with horrible battery life due to system ui restarts or something in all latest may version of Roms. I went back to b29I or whatever "I" version stock rom. No problems since. Goodluck
