Was wondering if anyone else was having an issue where taking a picture causes a reboot? Dont know exactly when it started, but I only noticed it happening the last few days. Probably because I dont take many pics to begin with. But it doesnt happen all the time, actually it doesnt happen much at all, only about 10% or so of the time. It also only happens right after I press the camera button, when I first open the app. If I'm able to snap the very first shot without a reboot...I know it wont reboot at all during that picture taking session.
Just to let you all know what I've done to the phone, Im stock rooted with G2 Xposed, G2 Tweekbox and Xblast Modules working. No init.d scripts or other performance tweeks. Just those 3 modules. So, Im not sure if there was an update with any of those modules that's causing it to happen, since I've only had the phone for 3 weeks (Sprint LS980 version). And Ive been rooted since day 1 and have been using those modules since pretty much since day 2 w/o any issues. Just trying to get any feedback or any possible insight or resolutions on what's causing these camera reboots now. Any help would be much appreciated...thanks!
Just in case anybody was wondering i figured out my issue. It was the killjoy tweak i installed. Soon as i uninstalled it the problem went away.

Hi!
Does anyone have problem with Google Play Music after the KitKat upgrade?
After the upgrade when i try to play a song, it gives me an error after a few minutes: "Music Playback error. Can't play the track you requested,"
I tried to remove the updates from Play Music, clear data from Play Music and Media Storage, nothing helped.
It happens on wifi and mobile connection too, and with the songs that i made to offline.
I haven't found a soultion on the forum.
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks!
Sorry for my English.
That might be a result of Google releasing Google Music in your country. Have you registered your account through a proxy before?
If so, you probably have playlists with tracks that is not available in your region that your account now is associated with. Try search for the songs again and see if you can play it from there.

Thanks for the tip. Play Music All Access released a half year ago, and before I didn't used a proxy to use the service. On 4.2.2 it worked well. Only on KitKat is this problem. I'll try to fix the update errors from the PC Suite, and a hard reset. I'll reply about it's success.

I had the same problem on 4.2, in my case clearing data uninstalling installing helped though... or it got fixed few days later... or I found a solution which I forgot.
I do realize that this won't help you much, just wanted to point out that it had nothing to do with the android version.
Also that the proxy stuff someone said is needed only to set it up... after that there is no need for any proxies. So I would say has nothing to do with it.
Also I am in a country that got play music just now and I had it since all access began... so again I think even that would not be a case.
I am a bit angry because in my country the all access is cheaper as in the US and I am not sure I can switch to the action price and if I will have the same songs as in US market...

I have this problem and I haven't found a solution. It's really annoying. It seems completely random. Sometimes every song I play will give me the error.

Thanks for the information, i think it's not about the Android version too. I think LG made some changes, because on my Nexus 7 on stock 4.4.2 it works fine. I found some forums about this problem, but on the Optimus G model, and without a solution. So I think the problem is on LG's side. I wrote a mail to them about the problems after the update, and they replied they are working on to fix them. I hope they will fix this too.
Running out of things to try
I have had the exact same issue since updating to 4.4.2 on my LG G2. I had to reset the Google framework app to finally get the update after weeks of trying. So initially thought the error was due to that. So I factory reset my device & still get the errors.
I have tried clearing cache, data, uninstalling all updates to play music. Still the same problems.
Updated the play app & still no resolution.
When I'm on mobile data I get the error on every song I play. On Wi-Fi I can go 5 to 10 songs before the same error pops up.
I have contacted T-Mobile & they confirmed that a lot of users have reported this after the 4.4.2 update me not just with the G2 but also with the galaxy S4 & note 3 after updating to 4.4.2 as well. I told them all the trouble shooting I've done & they told me to contact Google to find a solution.
Google play music support was unaware of this issue & after running me through the same steps told me to contact LG
LG once again was unaware of the issue & tired running me thorough the same steps again. Their conclusion was that my phone/the app was having trouble communicating with the Google servers. & directed me back to Google or T-Mobile.
So it's really frustrating since 4.4.2 has fixed a lot of my other issues (GPS, Bluetooth meta data, etc) but has given me a different & so far solution-less problem. :banghead:
My wife's G2 is doing this as well.
I did dig up a thread from Android Central from last year where some people suspected some process needed for their Chromecast was somehow interfering.
Just curious, how many of you with this issue also have a Chromecast?

I have a couple of Chromecasts. Before the 4.4.2 update my G2 would not cast a full song or two onto the Chromecast. But after the update it's the other way around. It will cast fine with no errors but won't play a full song on my phone.
Did you know what about the Chromecast was causing this issue? Was it the Chromecast app?

I tested out a couple of scenarios for at least playing songs that were cached on the device.
Had the same problems with data turned on & off. & even in airplane mode.
The only time it played without the playback error was when I took the SIM card out. It's a bit strange I know, but I'm going to see if maybe getting a different SIM card form T-Mobile does anything to this issue.

No, I had just find a whole bunch of other threads for different phones from last year where people started having issues with google music who used Chromecast. It occurred to me that we have a Chromecast, and my wife uses it. I haven't used once, we both have T-mobile, but I have a Nexus 5. So I was just wondering if everyone else with a G2 and the same problem also had a Chromecast.
Maybe there's some service the Chromecast uses that foobars something Music uses. Someone else had mentioned that when Music errors like this, they restart their phone and if works properly. Maybe that Chromecast service doesn't start on boot, and so it doesn't cause an issue until after it is used.
*shrugs* just a theory.

I don't have a Chromecast. I wrote to Google, and replied they consulted my case to a higher tier. I hope they can fix it in the Play Music app. I'm waiting for newer informations.
I also have the same problem andere its gettin worse everyvday. I tried it with an older version of play music but with no luck.
I hope they come with a fix soon because its getting really frustrating.

Same problem here. On my old SGS2 all was fine. With my new LG G2 I have this issue too. Sometimes all fine, then it stucks every minute/second.
Android 4.4.2
really annoying bug
Same error here on T mobile LG G2 running KitKat. Sometimes Google Music just works but then it wont play a thing for a while. Especially frustrates me when I am driving or when at the gym.

im having the same issue.. if i am on mobile data or wifi. if i turn them off i will get the err less, like 2 or 2 songs. this is my primary source of music!! please help
Finally managed to get a Logcat with all the details of the crash. Lots of information in this... The process "Nexstreaming" goes haywire when the crashes happen. Lots of A2DP references as well. Hopefully somebody can make heads or tails of all of this.
I had one song playing on loop during this Logcat. This particular song crashes more often than any other in Google Play (for me anyway) . I'm wondering if the audio subsystem is getting flooded with too much bandwidth for the BT codec to parse?

Such an annoying issue.
Even with pinned music it won't always play
Funny thing I'm noticing is that - especially with pinned music - if a song crashes the player, it's highly likely that it'll crash the player again at the same point in the song. I have several songs that I can predict the exact places where the song will quit. It's not consistent from play to play though.

Hey so I decided to come here and take a look, what exactly is the problem you guys are having with Google play music app, is it only while streaming with Bluetooth or on both WiFi and Bluetooth, are songs bought from the play store or from you computer? Any details will be appreciated

On G2 where every MB is precious(16GB) no way I gonna put on it music. For me it's the streams. I am feeling lucky radio to be precise. And problems I get sometimes as the good ppl have described. (Finally joined the KK ranks with all its faults... woohoo)

When I first got the phone there was an issue where every time I had bluetooth on and played a video, the audio of the videos delayed. The issue seemed to have been fixed with an update about a month ago but out of nowhere the issue returned and even with the newest update, I'm still having this issue. Has anyone found a fix for this? I've already tried unpairing and still nothing.

Still haven't found a fix and I'm really considering factory restoring and hopefully that does the trick. Just want to ask one more time if anyone else has found a fix for this?

Have any of you experienxed this and if you have do you have a solution for it?
Thanks for any advice.
Have a nice day!
Did you ever figure it out? My phone just upgraded to Nougat a few days ago and I'm experiencing the same thing. The only way I can fix it temporarily is to reboot my phone.

Hi XDA,
I'm having an issue where every time i unlock my phone using a lock screen notification to go directly to the app, my phone crashes and goes back to the lock screen. Is anyone else having this issue? Is there a fix?
Thank you
