[Q] Random Restart - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there folks .. been using the Nexus 10 for the past few days. All stock settings with minor apps installed. But I noticed a few times on random basis the machine just restarts by itself. All restart happened when I was browsing on Chrome. Latest was just this morning I was reviewing some sites on the comparison of browsers from different source and suddenly just restarted for no apparent reason.
No big deal for me but don't feel nice. Any way to check or find out what's causing it to restart and how to stop it??

Chrome has never played nice with my tablet...I would highly suggest using a different browser

I only have random reboots in Chrome now. I think its memory-related, but not sure

4.3 fixed the memory leak related reboots.

Thanks .. I'm already running 4.3 on my Nexus 10. I just needed to ensure this is really Chrome problem. I could install other browsers to try. Please share if others are also experiencing the same problem.

Browser keeps shutting down

Anybody keep having the browser shut off every 5 or so mins?
Yup. Just started happening to mine too. Quite irritating
yes very! Its getting sucky.
can you explain more ?
website you visits...
application (non stock installed)
factory reset already ?
I didn't notice so far that kind of problem, sometimes force close, but still not often.
I am also experiencing the same issue. I am using Dolpihn HD; and it happens while on any ramdom web page.

I started getting this in the last couple of days as well... It's damned annoying!
I'm running the 141.05 update, manually flashed from vache's thread. What are you guys on?
I'm glad it's not just me. Seems worse after midnight New York City time. Started a few days ago.

Happens to me as well... Using another browser like Firefox seems to help, so I would wait for a Dolphin HD update to fix this issue...

Add another to the list. Same here. It seems when I visit mobilsm in particular, my browser shuts down more often than any other site I've visited. I've also noticed when I'm working real fast in the browser it tends to wana FC with no FC message.
Ex. As soon as the browser boots I immediately start typing and pressing enter before the text finishes in the URL or Google and then I start moving the page around before its fully loaded. But that also could just be a coincidence. I've had the xoom before the iconia and I hadent experienced this problem but then again it was running 3.1.
Same problem here all day.
2 hours ago got an update for flash, now the problem is gone ?
Same here too !

[Q] Torrent clients **** up my Nexus 7. Anyone else tried this?

Hi there
Now I have tried two torrent clients; tTorrent and aTorrent Beta. EDIT: and now also uTorrent!
With both clients I have tried to download Game of Thrones season 1, but every time I leave it, a couple of minutes later, my Nexus screen is either frozen or turned off.
Then I have to hold the power button for 20-30 sec, and then it reboots.
I have uninstalled both of them again, because it's certainly those programs making the issues. Have someone tried the same thing? EDIT: You think it has something to do with the file I download? Just weird, since it looks legit (many seeders/leechers).
Specs:
Nexus 7 - rooted
Custom ROM: PA 2.56, CM based
franco kernel
Try adownloader. Haven't had a problem yet. Although I'm not using a custom ROM. I'm just unlocked rooted and have trinity's kernel. So may be an issue with the ROM. But just try adownloader see if it works fine. Works(ed) on my dx2 sinc2 and my nexus7 without any problems so if something happens could be ROM or kernel. Also I'm on 4.2.1 and not having any issues.

I haven't had any issues with uTorrent. Used it about a dozen times for small torrents.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
+1 for 'adownloader new', I've tried multiple torrent clients, and this one is the best. uTorrent froze my phone (or tablet, I can't remember where I tried it), others are limited to certain speed or number of downloads (free ones, that is).
The only problem I've had with adownloader is, that it sometimes doesn't start downloading if I open torrent directly from chrome (download, and click on it in notifications). Opening torrent from adownloader directly works w/o problems (or from file explorer)
If you suspect the file, download some Ubuntu, those are 100% legit (from official website)
Okay, thanks for for responses. Maybe it's the ROM or kernel then.
I could maybe also be the size of torrent (5,5gb)?
My Nexus 7 usually hangs when trying to download a torrent. I have trying tTorrent.
I am using Jelly Belly Rom v11 with Franco kernel r30

Had the same issue with my Nexus 7, running Trinity kernel and stock ROM. Using atorrent (not beta or pro), since it is on one of my favorite sites white list. Since updating the kernel and switching to CleanRom, I haven't had this happen since. Still using atorrent.
The only other insight I can offer from my findings is that it would happen when the number of connections would exceed roughly 25 connections.
Okay, cool. Thanks for the answers everyone.
It's not crucial I can download from it, would be cool though. Guess I'll wait till I update it some day!

I use the torrent app. Not seeing bad battery life or performance issue on stock 4.2.1.

It's kinda disappointing to hear that many people have had problems torrenting on the N7 since that was one of the first things I planned to set up. I'll probably give it a go anyway to see what happens, but after reading through this thread I don't have high hopes for the result.
I have noticed mine starts getting laggy and freezing up when download speeds are over 1MB/sec. This is using atorrent.

You could always pay for HBO. And then just download HBO Go app and watch each episode without any issues.

Not an option, since the HBO app doesn't work on rooted devices. And of course my device is rooted

App Update sloooooww

Hello.
I have this problem (only with google play only with nexus7): the app updates are ssooooo slooowww (really slow...).
It's so strange. I had no problem a week ago.
I don't understand: i have tried:
-delete google account
-empty the cache of service, google play and so one + reboot...
And nothing.
The strangest thing is the other function are normal: Nexus 7 runs well, chrome runs well... all the internet services are perfect...
An idea???
Thanx
i hope im in the right section ^^
Have you checked your free space? I know my updates slow to a crawl when I am down to my last 500mb of space
i have plenty of space (32gb)...And i have some problems ONLY with google play app updates... nothing else! :crying:
up... please
So you are sure it couldn't be related to your internet connection because all the other things are running as well as before?

[Q] Lag

Hi I am having problems with lag on my Nexus 7. Aside from the usual lag which seems to be everywhere even though this is my third unit. You Tube lately seems worse than ever. A few seconds into a video and the audio starts stuttering soon to be followed by video stuttering. I only have this problem with You Tube. I have the most current release of Paranoid Android on it along with the most current Gapps. Would reinstalling Gapps help? Should I reinstall Paranoid? Would there be a better rom to use for the Nexus 7? Or is this problem something other than a rom issue?
Thanks
I've never had issues with PA and M-Kernel.
You could try M-Kernel (think he's on a52 now) which is the one I have installed.
Try that combo and see how you get on !!
This is a known issue with Franco's latest hotplugging drivers, if you are on that kernel.

I have been having trouble with my nexus 7 running PA as well. If I leave my device locked for a while then go to unlock it with the pattern it will freeze. I'm not sure why it is doing this so much. It never used to on the previous builds..

Latest Franco and PA both have some issues atm. Read the threads lol
hey,
i had similar issues to you on my nexus as well. i was using stock 4.2.2. Eventually, i factory resetted the device and also did a delvik cache wipe from the recovery menu and now there is no lag at all (except when the play store is installing apps, then it would stutter). Though, i do get the audio stutter issues once in a while when multitasking or scrolling through a big PDF too quickly.
good luck

Play Store App flickers when downloading. Anybody?

I'm not sure if this has been discussed or not on the forms here. This is kind of hard to explain..Whenever I'm browsing in the Play Store app on the N10, during a download the app itself flickers (almost like its refreshing) whenever the percentage moves during the downloading process. This has happened way before the updates to the Play Store app as well. I'm running CM 10.1 (Nightly) and the issue is still there. This was one of the first things I noticed when I was running stock too. I was kind of hoping that Play Store Version 4.0.26 fixed it but I guess not.
Has anybody noticed this issue? I highly doubt this a hardware related issue. Games seem to run awesome on it.
Any ideas?
- Brian
I have had the same issue since I got mine in December, running stock.
I've had this issue under JB 4.2 and ICS 4.0 on an Acer a500 and the Nexus N10, no fix found yet.
I get this too… it seems to me like a refresh issue, like the Play Store is trying to load up other images or something. Since no other app does this, I'm pretty sure it's just an app issue.
I've seen it on every rom, every version of the play Store... It may be the refresh for the download causing issues

Omg, it just refreshes. Is that so annoying?

Yes, because it makes scrolling through 'My Apps' a royal PITA. And sometimes, if its particularly fickle, it keeps returning to one single app over and over.
Thanks for the reply back guys. I didn't know if it was a hardware related or if its just a bug in the app itself. I see that version 4.0,27 got released today. Hopefully this will help!
@bahehs..Do you have jokes or something? I remember my first beer.

Still flickers for me, but at least it doesn't reset to the top of the list every time it flickers now.
Same issue when I'm viewing all my apps during download. Since I can now scroll through my apps during download I don't worry about it much anymore.

When I'm updating multiple apps, it will keep refreshing the first one to the point that I can't click on the next app in line to be updated, because I want to see what the new update has added or changed.
I have the same issue (flickering shop) on my Nexus 7. I've noticed that it happens while downloading larger files, especially games. Sometimes it freezes Google Play completely.
So far I haven't noticed it on my Nexus 10. (But it has different version of Google Play, as far as I can tell).
The latest play store 4.xx resolved my flickers.

Yup, flashing, barely able to see what was going on be it downloading an app or copying a film from a flash drive. Installed AOPK and it is fixed, one solid moving bar as it ought to be.
Mine does this as well. I just leave the play store so I don't have to deal with it. Completely stock.
I get this with paranoid android, but had it before changing. It not only flickers, but when I'm downloading, say, Gmail, and go to another app while in the "My Apps" view, it will revert back to Gmail. Very annoying.
