[Q] Camera freeze, Automatic reboots and massive battery drain - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Its been almost a month that i updated to 4.3 build JWR66Y and then
1. I started facing automatic reboots frequently, for no apparant reason. I uninstalled all the apps i previously had except all the stock apps and facebook, but to no avail.
2. The second problem I face since the 4.2 update was lag in camera and dissapeareance of the camera settings button alltogether sometimes while in use.
3. I hear the sound of "how magnetic speakers make in presence of a cellphone while on a call(using the network)" on my earphones when i connect it to my nexus 4.
anyone noticed this? and it is quite annoying and surprising
[P.S refer to the ringtone "spagnola orchestration' on nexus 4 for the sound I am refering to]
4. 'Call drops' which is really frustrating. and i changed my network but still the problem exist. - this is the worst bug that a company like google has for a Nexus.
5. sometimes when there is a loss of network, and i search manually it shows an eror - "error searching for network".
Does anyone else face these problems? pls give me solutions for these.
I am on stock ROM, unrooted.

How did u update the rom? I imagine by OTA, right?
My suggestion is to reflash factory image using any guide here. It is very simple and it lasts 5 min. U shouldn't have this problems
If this persist, go back to 4.2.2.

Phone reboots after launching Camera in Android 2,1

Hi All,
I have a problem where my phone crashes and reboots when I launch an app that uses the camera in any way, for example layar, barcode scanner, camera etc. This only happens in Android 2.1, I've tried various ROMs and always the same issue. I've tested Android 1.5 and there are no problems with that at all.
I've noticed the crashes only occur when I'm on battery power, it never happens when the phone is plugged in so I cannot get logs to see what is going on, unless someone knows a way to get the logs from a crash.
I was wondering if anyone else has seen this problem and if so, if they've found a resolution to it.
Since updating with the OTA 2.1 update I have been experiencing this problem too. Phone reboots when it uses the camera, Layar, Yelp, AugSatNav all seem to cause the problem.
I get this problem too, with the camera, and also sometimes when I put the volume down it freezes and reboots

I've got the same problem. Restarting when launching apps using the camera.. Im glad that's not a HW problem but "only" SW bug.. I hope
It could (and probably is) a radio issue....Happens on the N1 and Desire if you try to use the camera too and seeing as the GPS,Camera both are dependant on the radio id say that is it! Find the radio reccomended with the rom you use and flash it( Beware of orange users being locked down though,you need a specific radio)
Just to add that I'm getting the same problem too running FroydVillain 1.2.2 and baseband 6.35.15.14, should point out that been having the problem for quite a while on a multitude of ROMs :-(
I'm not - did you full wipe?
Multiple wipes...
try 1.3 i guess
I had this problem when I was on stock 2. 1 I would recommend rooting and flashing froydvillain.

Tried multiple ROMs and multiple Radios with no change :-(
Unless theres a second secret wipe button hidden in recovery I don't know what else I can do :-/

Hi,
I have had this problem since i went to 2.1 also, i have also flashed several rom's since villainrom 12 and have even used rcmix 1.0b which is a great 2.1 imo.
Have flashed 2.2 roms, and i am still having the same problem.
This is how i can replicate this problem and how it occurs, to the letter.
1.Bring phone out of lockscreen.
2.Open camera.
3.Take pic, in dark or light lighting with brightness on any setting.
4.Save pic.
5.Close camera.
6.Lock phone and wait for 10 seconds.
7.Bring phone out of lockscreen.
8.Open camera.
9.Phones lights all go out and the hero name flashes up onto the screen.
10.Full reboot.
This happens everytime no matter what.
Some things to consider.
The phone will never reboot if it is plugged in to a usb / electric plug Charger and is actually charging.
The phone will remain on and will carry on taking pictures IF you don't close out of the camera the first time around.
No task killer was installed on my phone at the time of this test, although i have had task killers before with the same results.
Lighting effects and brightness can sometimes have an effect on the ratio and probablility of a reboot, with brightness on full in a dark room being the most probable.
I am using the newest froyd rom 1.4.3 although i have tried pretty much every rom out there, I NEVER have this error when i installed a 1.5 rom which does not have apps2sd (weird that) which tells me that it is NOT a hardware fault.
I am using villains no logo kernel 19mhz - 691mhz
63.18.55.06PH_6.35.15.14 Radio
HTC Hero on Orage UK.
IF anybody can shed any light on this rather annoying matter resulting in this problem being erradicated will earn my eternal respect and a big clock. : )

I can confirm that this isn't a bug on every install of 2.1 or 2.1 as I am unable to replicate the issue as described. Also if you've tried mutiple software and the bug is occurring across many that would suggest it is something hardware related or you are not performing a full wipe. Have you tried backing up the data on your sd card and formatting that then putting back only the necessary data (pics / music etc)?

I originally posted this issue and the descriptions from everyone else with the problem match mine pretty much perfectly.
I've taken all info off the sd card and performed a complete wipe of data, ext and davlik before formatting the sd card. I've put the blank SD card (apart from the ROM I'm about to flash) back into the phone and flashed. After config and before any new apps are installed on the phone I launch the camera and within 4 attempts at start the camera the phone will crash. This has happened across every 2.1 ROM I've tried, but doesn't happen on 1.5 ROMs.
Using the stock camera app? Have you tried without installing any of your own apps at all?
This is very odd. No matter what I try I can't get the camera app to crash. Though I am using v2.2 of android. Have you tried official 2.1? Vanilla and Sense?

Yep, it crashes using the stock app.
I've tried a rooted version of the offical but not the actual OTA update. I've not tried vanilla as I don't really want to run vanilla on it.
I've managed to take some logcat logs of the problem happening but there's nothing really specifc happening over a few crashes that would point to anything. .
I'm going to try to unroot my hero and downgrade to stock to start again. Just have to find a way to downgrade my bootloader first so I can put on the original RRU. I tried to downgrade before but got an invalid bootloader error.
The camera crash doesn't really affect me day to day as I don't really use the camera, where it is annoying is it stops you using apps that use the camera like goggles and layar.
Ahh - so its not the camera app that is crashing but other apps too which are using the camera. Very odd.
And FYI - you don't need to touch your bootloader - just change the driver in windows to My HTC instead of HTC Bootloader and the rru will work.

I have formatted and re partitioned my sd card to a T and it still occurs and thats with everytime i install a new rom, i don't use titanium i go the long way around every time and re set up all my programs, I know i can replicate this error like i said and like i also said this does not occur in 1.5 roms.
I have also have this problem with vanilla, modaco's new one, villain rom, rcmix, froyd, it appears that ever since the phone was updated to 2.1 there is a problem when using the camera app.
I have tried to install a rom and replicate the issue without installing any apps at all and it still persists, the only thing i can say is that it doesn't happen when i'm either on 1.5 OR the phone is charging?
It sounds like the the phone is requesting access for use of the camera and then not putting back what it requested in the first place, like a cache or something, and it simply make the phone reboot when it is called upon again.
I don't believe it is a hardware fault, i know this sounds like wishful thinking but the phone does not have this error in 1.5 roms. Thus, it cannot be hardware. Simple!
Also a logcat does not show anything, i was only able to replicate the error once whilst my phone was plugged in, it just won't do it again, and when i posted my findings on villainroms bug report section, a few of the lads still didn't know what it was so i don't know what else to say.
I'm due for an upgrade in October so for me at least it's not that much of a deal but i'm planning on giving this phone to my daughter so it would be good to get it working for her.
Would save me a lot of earache.
If u need to know anything else then please let me know, oh and i am using a class 2 sd card, which i have been unable to change, however just today my girlfriend has just had a class six delivered and her old one will be up for grabs so i will test with that too. Has anyone else tried with multiple cards??? Also how do i find out what boot loader i am using (recover) as maybe the problem resides there.

Thats right, its any app which accesses the camera.
What could be the correlation between connecting the charger and not connecting the charger, could that be a power issue and the battery is delivering too low a power output on it's own to run the camera? Hence it works with the charger plugged in ?? Either way i think that is the only real clue there is to be honest, unless your phones still restart when the phone is plugged in, in which case it's not much use.

Problems with Media

Here are some issues I've noticed with Media on my phone.
It happens completely at random.
Occasionally I will attempt to play a video file, or an MP3 file using the built-in software. The device will say "unable to play this file type". If I completely shut-down the phone, restart it, then I am able to play the files again. Like I said, happens completely at random, but I will usually have to reboot at least once every 3 or 4 days to resolve this issue.
Also, sometimes and also completely random, my ringtones will simply stop working. I still get a notification on the notification bar, and NoLed still gives me a notification, but no sound. Again, I have to reboot the phone to correct the issue.
Any ideas? Anyone else experience this?
My phone is the Bell 19000M on the latest factory Bell Froyo build with no root or lagfix or anything non-standard. I also noticed this behaviour on the last Froyo build (the one just before Christmas the bricked the phone).
TIA!

I've done this several times, each time I don't even restore a backup, rather I manually drag and drop necessary files back onto the device, and manually re-install applications as necessary. But I appreciate the reply.
I can confirm these issues on a i9000 european uk with jvk gingerbread.

Dammit, that's not good news!
This happens maybe once a week or even more infrequently. I had the media not playing twice in 6 weeks and going out of video, closing with task manager and then back in fixed it.
I had the ringtone bug last week and going in to sound and checking which sound was selected showed the circular icon was blue, sound played ok when I selected it again. On froyo, sometimes I could not select any ringtone that was my own, the blue icon would not work.
This happens very infrequently but it is annoying having missed calls with no ringtone played to alert.
I still have the wifi stopping working in perfect reception at times too.

When this happens on my phone, I had tried going into Task Manager to end all active applications, and clear Level1 and Leve2 memory, but it didn't seem to make a difference for me. Only rebooting the phone did.
I am also experiencing this issue.
I am running stock AT&T Captivate.
I have google music, double twist, and mypod installed as well.
Note: I also notice a problem when I unplug power or headphones it sometimes starts playing music.
Folks, I had the same problem with the media files (video and audio)...occasionally had to reboot to play anything on the phone....scoured the internet and found an obscure reference to the official Twitter application causing this issue (was buried deep inside a forum post). It didn't make much sense to me, but I had the application installed, so I decided to take a shot anyway. My media playback problems disappeared after uninstalling it. Haven't had to reboot my phone even once for this problem ever since. Thinking back, my issues started right about the time that I installed the application.
Anyway, I'm no expert so can't guarantee that the source of your problem is the same, but that is what was definitely causing my problem. I switched to a different third party twitter app, and all has been good ever since.
Edit: Forgot to mention that I am also with Bell Mobility and have an unmodified SGS with the latest firmware available to Bell customers

Atrix 4g kitkat ROM{by Zn7mkUKzN1r8aCIV} ROM problems and fix

Atrix 4g ROM Developer Zn7mkUKzN1r8aCIV's new ROM v2 gets you Android 4.4.4 KitKat and also fixes the battery percentage problem that is affecting most Atrix 4g users. check out his Development Thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/atrix-4g/development/rom-cm-11-android-4-4-4-atrix-bigpart-t2847281
However, after flashing his ROM, most of you will get a "Setup Wizard has stopped" problem. Here's the fix I found:
1)On the screen that says "Choose language:" choose your language
2)On the screen that says"Insert sim card", you will find that when you press "next" or "skip", the setup wizard will stop. At that point, swipe down the status bar.
3)Touch the date at the top left corner of the status bar
4)It will then ask you to sign in to your Google account and WiFi.
5)After you do all that, you will be taken back to the calender screen.
6)Triple click fast on the back button or home button.
7)You will be taken back to the language selection screen.
8)Choose language
9)Now you will find that when you press skip on the "Insert sim card screen, it won't force close anymore.
10)Sign in to WiFi again, and you will then successfully finish the setup and can start using your phone.
The second problem, is that your phone most likely will not detect the sim card. Here's how to fix:
1)Go to settings
2)Turn on then off the mobile network.(MUST!)
3)Power off your phone, do not take sim card out.
4)Power your phone back on.
5)Your phone should now detect the sim card.
[EDIT]:New problems and fixes:
This problem is very rare and will probably not happen to your problem at all, but just in case, here's how:
After flashing ANY new ROM, some of you will probably get a black screen instead of the boot animation. DO NOT WORRY, you're phone is NOT bricked, it's just that the boot animation will work randomly sometimes and sometimes not. Just power on your phone and wait until the navigation bar buttons at the bottom of the phone light up, then you will know that the phone has finished booting up, and then simply just press the power button to open the screen.
AGAIN, this will most likely never happen to your phone, so far, I think I was the only one experiencing this problem.
Another problem that came up: Google Now voice search in the Google now launcher doesn't work. This should fix the problem:
1)Download the Google Now lib from this link (thanks to XDA Developer Jesco): http://d-h.st/EH1
2)Go to file manager and move it into /system/libs.
3)Now the Google Now voice search should work.
Ask any questions that you have and I will be happy to help you ASAP.

idk, maybe if you learned how to search for youtube within Z's CM11 thread, you might have been able to find a link on page 35. But its ok, you're just like a lot of users who don't know how to use that simple feature known as a search bar.

I'm not one of those people you described, I searched on that thread but I didn't see because I was looking for Z's posts about YouTube problem. But thank you for information.
I downloaded that link, tried to install but I can't install it, It says "App not installed". How can I fix that?
I fixed the problem by renaming YouTube.apk in system/app folder and installing the new one. But there should be another, simple solution?
PS: Another question about that YouTube situation; the link that guy posted on CM11 thread is 5.2.27th version of YouTube, and I looked at "About" section of YouTube on my phone it says I installed 5.1.1.5 which is older. Why don't our phones update YouTube to latest version? Is this about the compatibility thing? Should we always follow the updates on somewhere else?
youtube
This might give some insight. My youtube has been working however ive never installed google play services even once, there may be a chance that gapps is causing the problem but i cant say for sure
hi kitkat user
could you confirm with this rom and last kernel that fonction bellow work fine (and without hang or problem when using it) :
- call (i think yes)
- sms
- gps
- video recording
- photos

Hi
My phone seems to be extremely sluggish when doing common tasks like opening or closing apps, opening app drawer, etc.
Also, any games I play on my phone seem to freeze for 0.5-3 seconds on touch input.
Is this a problem with my phone, or this ROM, or all CM ROMs on Atrix?
Send SMS
Hi There,
Is it only me or anyone else got problem when sending SMS? My Atrix on Z's KK is working great except the mentioned issue. I can receive SMS properly but could not send any SMS out.
Any helps would be appreciate!!!
Thanks.

Have you tried a different CPU governor? Or have you even unlocked the performance menu? There are some tweaks that you could apply and maybe you're missing them.
[Solved]
Hey guys, first of all, thank you Z and P! my atrix is now revived and I can enjoy it once more! what a great job. So far, really stable (although the screen don't light up until de end of some calls). Battery is doing great!
After some reasearch I found out I should be using the hporch32 recovery. Turns out I also needed to flash the hporch32 boot with "fastboot flash boot boot_olympus_kitkat_bigpart_hporch32_finalv2". I know it was silly, but the guides don't really cover this situation....
Anyways, thank you very much for this gift! Hope this helps other noobs!

Latest Update Heating Issues

Hello! The last OTA update was 12.1-YOG4PAS7DF and everything about it is fine except for 1 thing, the heating issue (well, for me). I don't really know how hot it is but when I'm using wifi for facebook, youtube, etc. , the screen gets warm easily. Anyone got the same issue as mine? Maybe an update will fix it but it's been too long. I'd like to flash some custom roms but I got this wifi connectivity problem with my old phone when I flash a cm13 rom and I'm scared it might happen again.
That's the last i've got too. With last security patch 1 April 2016. I can relate to the heating problem.
But now, when i go to SystemUpdates, i get this message: "WARNING: Update Cyanogen recovery is disabled. This may cause issues with updating your device. Please enable Update Cyanogen recovery in developer options". I'm wondering if this will uphold future OTA updates.
Cheers, Miche

AS say, you need to enable recovery update on Developers options.. If not have DOpt enabled you need to go Settings, select About phone, Tap the Build number entry seven times. On the seventh tap, you will be notified that "You are now a developer."

Do you mean that if i don't, i won't get any updates? Is there any other reason i need to be a developer (as a regular user)?

Not only do i have heating issues but my wifi indicator goes funny showing some kind of breaks between it like an exclamation mark and i would have to use 4g instead because wifi wont work. This phone was perfect before the last 2 - 3 updates now, i am contemplating a wipe and see if that helps. i would use one of the custom roms, but i have apps that are not rooted firmware friendly like the barclays app which is very important to me.
I also facing same issue when using wifi

After the New Update Exynos Model (BUGS)

Hello Guys,
I am from India, I got the latest update attached screenshot.
I am facing few issues:-
The phone has become laggy in some departments such as:
1. The fingerprint mark stays on the screen after the screen unlocks.
2. Even after pressing the power button screen doesn't lock. The screen does black out but when I double tab on the screen it directly takes me to the home screen without showing the lockscree first. I am not using Google trusted location or devices to unlock without taking my fingerprint or face recognition.
3. When I try to dial a number it doesn't call at a single go, after pressing multiple times it calls the person whom I am trying to call. It looks very choppy as if the system responding to my commands little later.
4. Whenever I am trying to take the screenshot it doesn't take at a single go, after pressing multiple times the system recognises I am trying to take the screenshot and respond little later.
All the apps are working fine without any lags but the above said things are bothering me a lot.
I hope someone from XDA can assist me with this.
P.S.: I have tried to clear the cache from the boot screen. Also did a test on graphics from the same menu.

Thanks for your reply! I hope somebody facing similar problems has overcome and provide suggestions.
But Sammobile blog has also confirmed these issues.
II havent faced any of these issues post update.
Did you try doing a factory reset? If not, try the same if its not too much of an issue for you.
I have the same but I updated today over mobile data.
Came home and it started to behave like described above.
So I figured it is something with the updated WiFi drivers.
Switched off Wi-Fi and all seems fine now.

No I didn't do factory reset as I have checked from other forums that factory reset is not helping, the new update is broken.

Yes this trick is working.

Also one more question I don't know if it's my phone or everyone is facing this issue. Whenever I switch on VoLTE calls (Screenshot Attached) my phone temperature increases and battery drains.

So, you're saying only the ppl that took the OTA are facing the issues? In that case i will probably try that then if the bug returns for me.
For now after switching WiFi On/Off for me it is gone.
Seen reports that plugging in the charger does the same.
Weird stuff indeed.
Also now i see a fellow Dutch, you by any change using Rabobank stuff (Wallet/App) with tripped KNOX and have no problems with it?

No, its possible that some users who do flash a rom with Odin could face some issues too but i personally don`t. I`am using the ABN bank app and i haven`t rooted for a long time now. I used to do it because of theming and getting updates/upgrades but nowadays i personaly don`t see a reason anymore to root anymore. So i can`t help you with your question.
I happened to flash "ASE5" build two ways :
1. First using ODIN 2 days back . Did a factory reset ,erased cache in recovery, reinstalled all apps & after setting them up:-
issues faced -> None.
2. Went back to previous "ASD5" build, downloaded the "ASE5 OTA" update and installed. Did a factory reset, erased cache in recovery, reinstalled all apps & after setting them up:-
issues faced so far -> None.
*One glitch I'm noticing from the beginning with "ASE5" :
When I click on my apps & games(playstore app>drop down menu on the left), it freezes for a split second while it takes into the main page. With all my effort, I could not fix it. (App cache cleaning only temporarily fixes this).

A split second delay bothers you? What apps are running in the background? Do you have the FaceBook app installed? How did you set your animations?

No it does not "bother"but is a step back in smoothness if that counts. It's a "difference" that I noticed since I was testing both builds back and forth for a comparison. Rest be assured that it's not related to apps installed and animations set.

Erase playstore cache and you won't even notice it for a while only to re-appear after sometime.
"Less noticiable" and "very much noticiable" in my usage in 1x & .5x respectively. In ASD5 build, this transition slips like a soap.
