So I took the first couple pics with the camera and now I've had a persistent notification (been there overnight at this point) that says "processed 2 of 8 items". Has a progress bar on it and (at this point) yesterdays date.
Anyone know what this is about and why it's not going away. Even if is WAS functioning properly, you'd think it'd have finished now... after all, it's just been setting on the counter doing nothing for 8 hours.
Reboot - it's obviously stuck processing a burst.

Hey guys, so this has happened the last two nights -- at exactly 2:02am my Droid X locks hard. Just did it again. I have no idea what is going on here but I have to pull the battery.
Last night it was on the charger (And the screen was on) so when I picked it up this morning it said 2:02 on the lock screen. Just now I was listening to music and dead stop -- screen was off but I looked at the clock on my computer and sure enough: 2:02.
Just set the clock manually to 2:01 and started a song -- let us see what happens in one minute.
*SIGH*
My phone has been working generally well..... but then I had a strange issue last night where the phone became super unresponsive accessing the SD, so I rebooted. Then the 2:02 lockup .. and then today the battery drained really quickly. A check of CPU spy and the phone never entered deep sleep. Battery manager showed the phone never going to sleep as the "awake" bar went across the whole screen even though Screen on was less than 1 hour total.
Manual clock set to 2:01 did not result in a freeze as I let it go to 2:03... I just set it to 1:59 to see if that makes a difference.
Stock latest GB, root, debloat done myself (fresh install and debloat a couple weeks ago) .... really at my wit's end with Motorola phones. I have a Droid X2 but find that phone generally unusable due to the extremely lackluster performance including the constant audio dropouts, even with the latest GB release.
Anyone else ever seen this 2:02 thing? Or have any idea where I can even begin to look to fix it? I don't see a crontab file on here. I haven't installed any new apps other than the usual updates that seem to happen every day.
....Manual clock is now at 2:04 (from 1:59) with no freeze. So I don't know WTF is happening. I had rebooted the phone around 8pm tonight .. actually had to pull the battery. Did a "reboot" from the Terminal Emulator and the phone went black and never started rebooting.
I'm so fed up with this damn phone!!
That's not happening to mines
Hard reset your phone n back up SMS, files, etc.
Try different battery!

Not sure if this is a problem with the phone or some settings i'm missing. I bought the phone 2 weeks ago so i think there is still time to get a replacement but i was wondering if anyone has seen this problem before.
The stock weather widget that is on the home screen by default does not refresh the weather sometimes. If you manually click on the refresh sign from the home screen, it shows it trying to refresh but nothing changes. Same happens if you open the app and refresh from there.
I have data turned on, sync, gps, etc. Nothing i can see that would be stopping it.
The problem is fixed if i reboot the phone. If the phone has been up for about 6-7 hours it still does the refresh just fine. If its been up for 30+ hours the problem above starts happening.
I have another S4 as well, have not been able to catch if the same thing happens with it, but a side by side comparison of "status" and all the apps running is identical and where my phone fails to update the weather (up time over 30 hours) this other one works just fine (up time 5 hours).
The only difference between the 2 is that my phone is rooted.
Happened with my s2. Not my s4
I think i was able to narrow it down and i'm starting to think there is nothing wrong here.
Clearing cache/data on the app also brings it back so no need to re-start. But the failed refresh seems to happen when i'm not able to get a GPS signal. (would be nice if it actually dont you this with an error pop up or something) Still need to try it a few more times but im 95% certain its timing out if it cant lock on GPS. It only seems to happen inside.
The other phone was working even without GPS turned on, which i thought was odd.I later found that it was not displaying current city, but instead was just configured to display the city i happened to be in.
So I finally got the notification that I could update my Nexus 4 to Lollipop; I was aware of some issues regarding performance/wifi etc but nothing prepared me for this;
I installed Lollipop last night and left my phone optimising its apps etc overnight. In the morning I had a couple of messages saying the launcher was not responding, I also noticed I had no wifi or mobile data connection.
I restarted and my wifi connected but the phone promptly froze and needed another reboot. After reboot it took a long time for even the 'no signal' triangle to come up and much longer for it to show any service, but still no data connection. Various apps are causing popups asking me to close, wait or report. Normally it won't respond to any of these options. I've not even tried to use most of the apps, such as Google Docs which has come up a few times.
Within a couple of hours all I had managed to do was let Gmail steal my emails and get a quick glance of the 'new look' (which I like).
A bit more careful handling got Spotify running for my drive to work but it froze and needed a reboot after removing the aux lead from the port.
Then it stopped responding and I left it for the day as I was working, when I came back it still said 9am on the screen. I cleared the cache via the recovery boot process, performance has improved but its still freezing and the data/mobile reception is very flaky. In 24hrs I still haven't managed to use the phone for anything except Spotify. Not even loaded a web page. Its probably had 20 restarts today.
Help!
Just done the following and there has been a marginal improvement i.e. I can actually open an app (occasionally) without freezing the phone but its still largely unresponsive and no mobile reception at all.
Go into the developer options as above. There are three options under "Drawing" in Developer Options :
-Window animation scale
-Transition animation scale
-Animator duration scale
Turn all three to 'Animation off'.
then, under the 'Apps' subheading (in developer options still), set Background Process Limit to "at most, 2 processes".
My N4 and N7 have been flying along since I did that.
hi. i got my Note about weeks ago. i got it imported so cant get any warranty claim what so ever.
last night i was on tomshardware website and looked at exactly this page of gaming monitors. i tried to load the desktop site but it didnt.
i scrolled down to the bottom as everyone does. and i saw this issue for like 2 seconds, and then it said that browser has stopped. then it was ok.
now, today i woke up in morning , and out of no where, after like stopping my alarm, my Note 4's half screen started flickering and the image got stuck there.
then it stopped on its own.
now i went to Samsung test menu with *#0*# and checked that the screen test is ok, spen test is ok and everything is ok.
i started a game, and it game me that flickering again. what happens is like this . i dont have a camera to capture it, so thats why adding these images.
IT HAPPENS JUST LIKE THIS BUT ON MY DEVICE ITS THE LEFT SIDE, EXACTLY HALF OF LEFT SIDE OF DEVICE
i took the screen shot and its not the software. it shows all fine.
it stops when i rotate the screen and then happens again on its own, especially in games.
i know its ****ed already, but its sunday and markets here are closed, so as a last option im asking you guys is there any solution?
i have stock, unrooted lollipop.
Had my PH-1 for 3 months, today was the first freeze up of the phone, was stuck with home screen on and displayed.
Had to reboot by holding small button and Volume down. When phone rebooted it came up with the Android laying on its back with the open stomach hatch, had to reboot a 2nd time. Then had options like from Safe Mode, pushed small button below Volume to perform a regular restart.
Found my battery was running down quickly from a full overnight recharge. Looked at the Battery settings and it showed the camera was on top at 29% after about 5 hours WTH?? I did use the camera and this is what I was trying to use when the phone was frozen, but once the phone was rebooted, I snapped like 5 pictures and then I was pretty sure I closed the camera App. I tend to always try to close/kill all open Apps that I am not using.
So not sure what happened or why, just wanted to put this out there so others can read and may respond if this is a common problem due to some update or incompatibility.
Seems there may be a conflict with the latest Camera software and phone OS??
I had my phone freeze again today when I went to take a picture. This is an intermittent issue because I took quite a few pictures this morning without a problem. Then later this afternoon I took a single picture then wanted to take a 2nd and realized the phone was frozen.
Had to reboot the phone, seems to have cleared up for now?
I just noticed that the camera App just updated 6 hours ago on my phone. This was AFTER the 2nd freeze during camera usage.
Currently my phone is running Android stock 7.1.1 and the updated camera App is 0.1.095.007.
It is possible the latest camera App update has solved the freezing problem?
Will wait and update this thread in about a week about how things are working.
Just wanted to update this thread on phone freeze.
Seems that the problem may have been with a prior camera update. I had the phone freeze 2 times, shortly after the 2nd freeze the camera App was updated and since Camera App 0.1.095.007 was deployed I have not had any more problems with the phone freezing.
So hopefully I can say the Essential group was aware of the problem and release a very quick solution.
Still loving the Essentinal phone, would like more camera features, but I guess this will come with time.
Best part is I only charge phone every 2 days the way I use it. Have run Waze for over 3 1/2 hours multiple times with fresh charge and no external power and battery is still slightly over 50%.
So a new camera update version 0.1.097.006 was released and my phone was updated late yesterday or last night.
No problems since the last camera update that came out a few days after the update that caused the phone to lock up. Seems we are back to the same routine.
Used my phone to take a few pictures this afternoon, and guess what, phone locked up again after I took a few pictures and make an outing phone call right after taking the pictures. Put phone back on power after taking the pictures and making the call, I guess the camera App was still open in the background. Looked down and my phone display was on the camera App. Tried to close the App, no go. Unplugged the phone from power and the yellow power LED was still lit and the phone was non responsive.
Held down the power and volume down button to restart the phone.
Expect and hope an update the camera App is released soon to solve this issue. I have faith that the Essential team will resolve this quickly.
