Number three isn't related to YouTube specifically, it happens any time you're supposed to receive the prompt to select an app to complete a given action, if you're docked or locked in landscape orientation, and haven't rotated the screen since the last reboot. The workaround is to enable screen rotation, then turn the device to portrait orientation until the screen rotates. (You can do this while the screen is half-dimmed). The prompt will immediately start working properly again, until the next reboot.
One problem not on your list is that the weather widget still randomly adds a half-line of blank space before the location, causing the temperature line to be cut off at the bottom. Also, the new "Last update" line places AM/PM after the date / before the time, rather than after the time where a native English-language speaker would place it.

Additional bug (possibly) - microphone
When chatting on Google Video Chat, and having headphones plugged in, the person on the other end can barely hear me. Take the headphones out and its much better.
Tried using the app called Voice Record which has sound level needle and tested the same situation with the same outcome. Mic is good without headphones plugged in, but once they are, the mic goes to like 2-5% input level.
Tried same on a friends TF with same outcome. Not sure if this is an OS issue or hardware/driver thing

Interesting, had you tried on earlier releases (3.0, 3.1?)

I have the exact same issue (prime 1.7), and I'm pretty sure it wasn't here before on prime 1.6.

I have one issue with 3.2:
When I am trying to open file which could be opened with couple of programs screen become darker, but no table with programs to choose.
The same with all ROM's (Prime, Rewolver, original). When downgrading to 3.1 all works well.
Do anybody experiencing the same issue? Mine is B50

Yes, I have this problem too, maybe I installed a file manager app and the app clash with the build-in file explorer.
When I click the file name of a avi file, the screen becomes darker without pop up a app selecting windows. It seems that the system hangs when a file tries to link with a corresponding app.
Will this happens with the use of the build-in file explorer only?

On my mail, if i hit on a link on a message..screen goes dark also, the post above said rotate screen, now it works when rotated...bug!!! Also, on stock browser doing a entering of info on screen, like a Google search, damn cursor gets removed of edit box. Another bug...I found...decaf coffee taste crappy...hopefully the upgrade the taste...

rotating screen really helps.
Thanks.
This bug doesn't efect any software installed. I have made fresh install with no any software Stock ROM with Nwflash. Bug comes after second reboot. no mater which ROM you are using.
With elder ROM's based on 3.1 no problem.
Anyway rotating screen helps.

Touch screen most of the time, unresponsive (takes alot of tapping for a respond), usually happens at the lower part of the screen,
Is it just me?

Was the 3.2 wifi issue solved with latest update patch, wifi drops out unless you designate static ip?

No problems with touch screen and WiFi for me.

I brought my transformer to Asus service center in my country, to complain about the white spots in the middle of the screen, they have agreed to replace my screen, is that right?
I thought they would replace the whole unit, hopefully the new screen will fix the responds issue

Hey thanks for this tip. The dark screen-pick app thing sucks and was making me insane. I definitely have this same bug on stock 3.2 with root. Other than that, I haven't had any major bugs except maybe standby battery life not being as good as before 3.2.

[ROM] Xylon | OFFICIAL: 2.1.1b2-Feb26 --- Issues and Problems

Hello,
I am not allowed to post in the developers thread and advised to ask here.
I have used Xylon-Rom before, did today a clear installation (factory reset, cleared all caches + data) and have some issues with the actual b2-build:
-white statusbar -> when trying to change it, xylon settings crash.
-Xylon PIE -> can't get it to work. When enableing it, nothing happend.
-Customizsation of Notification light -> where are the settings for it?
Thanks if someome can give me some advises.
Regards
Robsterboy

Hey there man, the white status bar is a known issue in the latest stable and sadly there is no simple fix for it, I'd advise just waiting for the new release which is bound to be any day now.
Once you've enabled pie did you switch to expanded desktop mode? It can be difficult to get pie to appear with the navbar still there.
Edit: the led settings are at settings->XY tools->and then LED at the bottom

I read so many complaints and issues with this ROM.
I just got my Nexus 4 last week. I rooted it right away, and installed Xylon 02-23 build, with Matrix kernel v7.0
I have zero issues at all. No problems, not one reboot in a week, no FC. No status bar problems. Maybe I got lucky, but everything just works as expected.
Battery life, with this kernel has been great. On average heavy use workdays 12 - 15 hours total usage, with constantly getting 5h On Screen time each day. On weekends with WiFi getting a full day easily.

Some of the issues are hard to spot cause you don't realize they're issues, ROMS like Slimbean and Paranoid Android are rock solid, some of the issues I encountered last I used Xylon were a memory leak (RAM would get used up and wasn't coming back at a certain point, either that or the recents RAM wasn't reporting properly), Mixcloud wasn't streaming music with the browser, PIE implementation is buggy and is invisible at times (same as Carbon and Rootbox) etc worst is the dev is a ghost in his thread

Thanks Sliming,
LED now works fine
Okay. Now have to wait until new Beta will be released.

Nexus 7 2013 random freezing

Hi guys i got some freezing issues, anyone got an idea what could it be? i'm totally new to Android/tablets, so other then this info, i don't know what else to say, or explain the issue better, it just freezing for like 5 sec, and after it works normal, its random freezing. I hope anyone can help me, thanks.

Is it when you update or install apps?
This is normal, the OS can freeze for a few seconds during write operations.

What ROM and kernel are you using? Are you over clocked?

No overclock at all, Kernel - 3.4.0-g9e52a21
Build number JSS15R all stock here. No custom ROM's..

I experience the same BS on an all stock WIFI model (2013.06 date code). Thought it was JB 4.3 teething pain but my Note 3 running 4.3 doesn't do it. Have mainly noticed it playing Great Big War Game where it'll randomly freeze the whole tablet once per launch for about 10 secs where nothing responds (show touch, home, switch task, etc.) then it'll either return to normal or prompt with dialog to wait or close. Have also had it happen in Modern Combat 3 along with the random app close that, again, doesn't affect Note 3. Haven't seen newer apps affected so perhaps it's a software issue and is fixable but it's irritating nevertheless considering it's a Nexus device and after correcting the touch issues with ts10 firmware update. Going to try reflashing the stock image to see if it fixes it otherwise looking forward to dumping this Asus for a Note 10.1 2014 LTE. My Note 10.1 2013 and Note 2 have been 100% solid with never a crash, hang or touch issues.

I had freezing problems when i was trying out the TS20 fix. TS10 seems to yield erratic behaviour randomly after each reboot.
Ever snce i've been testing the ones between TS10 and TS20. TS16 works better for me than TS18 - just being more responsive but both has no reboot issues. Am testing TS14 now and it seems better than TS16 but i needed more time to run it. None of the 14,16 and 18 has given me any kind of freeze after 24hrs of testing on multi-touch intensive apps.
You might wanna give 16 a try... i will be posting a more detailed update in sfhub's thread when i'm done with TS14 and TS12 testing.
Cheers

Thanks for the answers guys, but this is really new to me, i got no idea what is TS 14, TS 18 or TS16, can you guys explain me a bit? thanks.

I had the same issue. Please see my observations at post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46082214#post46082214
However, I have recently tried to uninstall all apps (backing up with titanium backup) and installing back in bunches. With only the apps/games I use daily, the issue appears to have subsided, and I am trying to slowly bring apps back to see what the issue is.
Original post for consolidation purposes:
When it happens: Touch intensive Games (drastic, MMOJ, Dumb Ways) appears to be when the 3D GPU is NOT in use, netflix, when paused for a short while.
What happens:
1. Screen does not update display appears frozen
2. No response from nav bar icons
3. Power, volume buttons give no response.
4. If audio was playing right before it froze, it will keep playing as if nothing wrong.
5. If I hit the power button or the nav button then let it sit for a few minutes, suddenly it will react to every press I did in quick motion and go back to normal.
5a. I had show touches enabled, which showed a random number of the frozen touches working in quick succession when it "unfroze"
6. Sometimes requires a hard restart with no response.
When it started: Right before the Q update starting rolling out, did not have issues out of the box.
Purchase date and location: Right around the time of launch from best buy, 32 GB 2013 version
Troubleshooting steps: Safe mode (doesn't appear as often), full factory restore to the Q image when the R image started rolling out. Issues were gone for a short timeframe, then returned
Config information: Stock, latest firmware version, rooted via TWRP (latest version installed), and SU.
Observation: Appears to occur in select situations, and I believe I always have a GMAIL notification right when it un-freezes.
Let me know what you think and if it should be merged with a different topic, didn't see anything about it un-freezing when it was frozen or audio still playing.

Please refer to this thread for a fix:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428133
The fix from the thread above helps with many touchscreen issues including freezes.
At least it helped with mine. I was experiencing freezes and so called "sticky touches" (like when you short tap on something and the device interprets it as a tap and hold).

My device came with pre-Q and went through three OTA updates. After reflashing with factory R image minus wiping data (remove -w from flash-all.bat file) and with ts10 all appear to be better so far. Modern Combat 3 still randomly closes but it could be Gameloft's crappy coding. Need to run it for a few more days to confirm but reflashing factory R image with ts10 offer the best experience so far.

Mine does too now in addition to the already random reboot. The freezing happens when I try to input text on the keyboard.

[Q] Navigation buttons not working after 4.4.3 update

Has anyone faced similar issue? Here's bit of background. I was using Liquidsmooth custom ROM with navigation bar disabled and pie controls enabled for navigation. I used to to enable pie control to swipe from bottom border.
So, the day I got system update available notification (for 4.4.3), my pie control stopped working from bottom border. Just a coincidence I think. It was still working from other trigger positions though. I also had this incredible urge to see new update of Kitkat. So, I just got Google factory image of 4.4.3 & flashed it. Everything done, I got to home screen only to find out my navigation buttons are not working. That area is completely dead. Those buttons will randomly start working for some time. Only for a minute or so.
So I went back to the latest version of Liquid Smooth ROM. Pie control from bottom border & navigation bar is not working. Tried going back to stock 4.4.2 & take a 4.4.3 OTA. Still no go.
And to me, it seems a software issue since navigation buttons work in landscape mode. And the area where navigation buttons are in portrait mode also works fine for everything else. So, it's not as of that part of touch screen is dead.
So, to cut long story short, please help me out here guys!!! :crying::crying::crying:
Regards,
Mrugesh.

Did you find a solution to this? I know of a Nexus that also started having this problem and no clue how to fix.

No clue dude... No resolution... I'm just using my Nexus with pie controls whichever way I can.... Thank God it's a Nexus. Else I'd have been screwed by now buddy.... But surprising to see no resolutions from XDA.

Navbar stop working

so i recently replace my mtxp screen and everything was working perfectly until one day i was watching a youtube video and tried using my navbar buttons and they were unresponsive..did everything from rebooted..clear cache..reinstall rom...same problem..its like the bottom of the screen is unresponsive and only works when screen is locked...
anyone else with the same problem/solution?

Hi, I have the same situation: the screen was replaced some 9 months ago and worked fine until a few days ago, when the navigation bar stopped responding. I think it happened during watching a video (on facebook or YouTube) as in your case. I've also tried everything you did, but for no avail. The interesting thing is that the screen itself is reaponsive in that area e. g. during the Setup wizard or on the lock screen (e.g. the button to switch on the camera is working fine). I think I had some similar issue with another android device (LG 4X) when I was using a non-stock ROM (CM) and there was some issue with the installation of Google Apps. As I'm using the stock ROM for my Moto X Style, my best guess is that it might be a potential Google Play Services update that is causing this issue.
Maybe this theory could be checked by installing a third party ROM without Google Apps (I'm not sure if that is possible) to see whether the navbar works that way or not.

Hopefully I will figure it out.. It's definitely a software problem triggered by a update or system app.. My work around for now is using a nav bar app from the playstore

Hi, I have switched on the "Show touches" feature in the Developer options to see whether the screen is detecting touches in the bottom area of the screen: it actually doesn't. It is not an issue on the lock screen though but it is for the navigation bar. So, it seems it is the hardware that is acting up, after all...
I have found a thread about this issue with a workaround to increase the height of the navigation bar by xposed: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/help/navigation-buttons-issue-t3497985
I'll try either that or by installing a custom ROM that has that option built in - e.g. AICP 12.1 (Android 7.1) seems to have such setting.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/help/solved-navbar-responding-t3993049

Same problem here - at least in my case also a hardware issue after replacing a broken screen. Thought (as many did) it was software because TWRP, lockscreen etc works, but if you actually try touching only the downmost parts of the TWRP or lockscreen buttons, it won't react. "Show touches" from developer tools also shows touches being registered only just above the normal navigation buttons.
