Greetings,
I bought a Nexus 7 and it came with 4.1.2. No issues at all, and when the upgrade to 4.2 came I was stoked. After initially upgrading to 4.2 some time ago, I noticed video and sound would periodically stutter and crack every now and then while streaming Netflix. Recently, after 4.3 was released, I gave it another shot and it still has the same issue. This issue does NOT exist on the 4.1.2 stock rom (for me). I have tried a non-upgraded clean flash of 4.3, along with attempting to disable (i believe it's called) prism through trickster mod, as well as disable google currents, as well as 'Lagfix' app. I have tried unticking the wifi setting that increases battery performance, and I have tried forcing GPU to render the screen. The only thing that seems to work, which unfortunately forces the Nexus 7 to get really warm in its case and have terrible video life, is forcing GPU to render the screen in the developer settings.
I will mention that the video flicker goes away with the trickster mod option disabled, but the sound stutter-crack still continues. Again, this DOES NOT HAPPEN on 4.1.2, and while that is a very solid stock ROM, I'd like to be able to update my device at some point in the future as I cannot find anything that helps alleviate my case. Thanks! Any Idea what I can do to fix this and enjoy 4.3 and possibly future releases? Thanks
First i want to apologize my bad english. I´ll try my best. You guy´s from xda are known worldwide and you are my last hope.
I switched from the S3 to Note 3. It was delivered yesterday.
I read here and there about the Problem some People do have with there YouTube app (Stuttering).
I`m using a fast wi-fi Connection (100mbit) and i have the old s3 and the new note 3 in front of me. on the S3 every single movie runs perfect!
On my Note 3 not a single online Videos runs smooth.
Youtube app: constant stutter every 5 seconds.
Browser embeded Videos (4player.de for example) 15-20fps.
"Game one app" from playstore (gaming Magazin) 5-10fps !!!! unwatchable.
I have so many questions and no answer.
Is it a hardwarefailure (because there are many Note 3 user without that Problem)?
Is it a Firmware bug (4.3)? Why doesn´t anyone have the same Problem.
Is it an application bug (maybe not compatible with 4.3) ? But why do browser movies run bad too (no app).
What did i try so far?
I turned off smartpause. I did a factory reset and i switched hardware videoaccelaration under developer Options on. I used Odin to Flash a unbranded original Samsung Firmware (no root). Nothing changed.
So my hope is that you guys from xda could use your international "credits" to ask samsung for an official answer.
It can´t be that the most expensive Samsung Smartphone has these massiv Problems!
I have the Feeling it´s only a Problem of the black Note 3. By the way...my black note 3 (Telekom Branding) has this Homebutton Problem too.
Maybe other users with the same problem could write down if there Phone is black or white, moveable homebutton and which branding.
Thanks for your help!!
Greetings Rik
it might be hardware failure, best thing to do is going to where you first bought your phone and ask for replacement.
Hello, so i have a i9505 with the uk 5.0 official rom and i have this problem in YouTube. When I'm playing a video and i drag it in the corner and begin scrolling through the list of videos it begins to sutter(usually with hd videos), but the video itself plays fine. Now i found 2 sort of solutions for this, first is to disable hardware overlays from developer options but i consumes more battery. Now the second one involves going into safe mode, where everything works fine, so I'm guessing and app is responsible but i still not found it yet. I hope anyone who experiences this issue finds this helpful and let me know if you have any other tips.
So i finally gave cm 12.1 a chance because it's been rolling for a while now... and i was actually pretty impressed. The one issue i couldn't deal with is the bluetooth audio playback in my car. Basically it was playing too fast, then pausing every 10-20 seconds and then continuing to play too fast again (also at a slightly higher pitch). I was able to temporarily fix the problem by turning bluetooth off and on but it came back. other than this i didn't see many issues and thought it was pretty good, but for no i'm going to go back to stock until this issue is fixed, i did find that it was already reported to the cyanogenmod team and they are already working on a fix so i'm waiting impatiently until it's fixed and i'll probably be moving from stock kitkat as my main rom to cm 12.1. How has everyone elses experience been with cm 12.1 nightlies so far?
What doesn't work. (if i missed something here post so i can update)
- saving 4k video (1080p works tho)
Battery life ?
- used to be terrible but it's almost as good as stock now but with better performance.
hey
i would like to use CM as i was doing that on my Moto G. the questions I have to users of the newest CM version:
- does quickcircle, google text-to-speech, intelligent screen (LG app) features work?
- what is the quality of videos and pictures taken by the phone running CM opposite to android v20i?
thank you.

1. Quickcircle won't work. To make it work again you have to install a special app. Google text-to-speech works ok for me (I haven't test it too much). LG features/apps won't work
2.For me the quality of pics and videos are the worst I have ever seen!!!! (Much better in the stock LG)
My experience with CM12.1 was average. I was waiting for something better. Camera is awful in the Custom roms. Battery life wasn't the best. In terms of performance the cm12.1 is better than the stock lg.
i've only been running cm 12.1 for a few days now so i don't have alot of substantive input, i did find a fix for the bad bluetooth car audio using a macro/tasker app but i think they have fixed it in the nightly released today, i'm downloading it now it says bluetooth stream parameters in the patch notes so i wont bother sharing my fix until i try this nightly to see if they already fixed it. i'll give a better review of whats working and the camera/video quality after i have a chance to play around with it more.
by the way anything running ART instead of DALVIK cache/runtime is going to perform better but it's at the price of xposed modules and such, i'm not expert on it but i know they switched to ART cache/runtime to be more competitive with the iphone. On Kitkat and lower an android device needs better hardware to output the same performance as an iphone with lesser hardware. ART should fix that problem. If you are curious google ART vs DALVIK
*edit* yeah bluetooth is fixed with the newest nightly update... atleast for my car which is a mazda 3. (yay)
Avrage camera and bugs like video not saving after recording is main culpit to not use CM 12.1. Otherwise it is good as clean android can be.

Videos do save. It is a issue with 4K video ONLY. Switch to 1080p video and videos save just fine.

I found that myselfe, tnx. But I believe that issue is fixed already. Maybe Im wrong, but I did see in changelog or other forum. Maybe someone can test it?
I switched to stock kitkat, I love CM, been running CM since it was 10.1, the problem is that it starts really really fast and after a while CM 12.1 becomes laggy it drives me crazy, other than that is the camera quality which doesn't bothers me as the performance issue,
I guess we'll need to wait for LG to release the G3 source file but who know's when that's gonna happend
good news the latest daily added some balancing between power and battery life. I went from losing a huge chunk of my battery during work when my phone is in my pocket to going 9.5 hours at work and coming home with 94% battery. (that is alot of standby but i use my phone at lunch and have bluetooth running for about 50 minutes of driving). Basically it got alot better, i'm not sure what they did but i did notice that there is a balanced setting in battery screen that i didn't notice before. Anyways I think those who were concerned about battery drain my have had their wishes answered over the last few nightlies.

Knock on works but knock code doesn't, which is quite normal considered it's an LG feature.

Partly working. You can turn screen on by clicking anywhere, and turn it off by knocking at notification bar.
Phone encryption not working?
I've just flashed the 20150603 CM12.1 and I cannot seem to get the phone encrypted. On the reboot to start the encryption, the phone gets stuck in the CM boot animation and the encryption process never starts. Any ideas or suggestions? Many thanks in advance.
I'm on 06/05 nigthly. When I plug the phone in my computer, it's not being recognized. If I change from MTP to PTP, then it works.
I've tried going to Device Manager, and could see that my phone is being recognized as a Nexus device. I tried installing latest drivers from Google's website, but I got a message saying that I'm already on the latest version. So that didn't do anything. I've tried uninstalling that "nexus" driver and rebooting my PC, but it somehow came back when I plugged my phone in. Trying to update gave me the same message.
If I run "adb devices", I can see that there's no devices (it's enabled in developer settings). If I enable ADB over WiFi and try to connect -- it works, and I can do whatever I want. But only over WiFi and not via USB.
Tried different cable and different port as well.
Hello everyone, I want to share with you a problem that I met with my S8 since I have it (<1 week).
Everything works fine except when the screen shows a video, whatever it's on YouTube, FB, Twitter, or even integrated videos on other apps, on the screen appears some randomly placed lines of pixel that are not refreshing, like a lag, and generally it makes the phone crash and reboot.
This problem is kind of random also, maybe 80% of the time.
Also this problem doesn't occurs when watching GIF or playing games
From my point of view, I have no clue if the issue is software or hardware.
For now all I tried is :
- Factory reset from the recovery
- Factory reset from Odin
- Safe mod boot (and it is still doing the same problem)
- Installed Android 8.0 beta
- tried to modify the animations on the development mode
- modified the screen resolution
And nothing is working. For now I didn't wanted to root it and install a custom ROM, because I don't know if it will change anything.
Anyway if you have an idea what it could be I would be really thankful. Also I heard that some had an issue with random reboots, but i've never seen a post mentioning this issue.
My s8 is a SM-G950F
Did you find any solution?
