Gear VR sound problems? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer

Sup everyone, I purchased a vr yesterday and I received my free games only they sound like absolute [emoji90] [emoji90] [emoji90].
Weird because it seems to only happen sometimes I've tried to narrow down the root of the problem to being the live wallpaper I was using to turning off fingerprint scanner and AOD. Can anyone else notice this? Is not everywhere but games like Esper 2, keep talking and nobody explodes. Other apps work fine like Netflix and other videos and games.

samsung galaxy sii application crash, is it normal?

hey guys its me again, ive tried playing the following apps:
Air Attack HD on galaxy s2, nearly all the times at checkpoints my application freezes and it closes, the same freeze happens sometimes with turbofly3d, can anyone experience the same issues? i tried updating but it says 2.3.3 is the latest update and i already have it.
Thanks in advance!
On the a different topic, for those who were interested in the veridict about galaxy s2 blueish screen from diff angles, it also happens with the one ive tested at the store, but the blueish is noticed alot harder than on mine, probably because ive i said before mine is brand new and t he one at store was there for almost a month turned on.
Sorry i didnt post this in the proper thread, i just cant find it anymore
can anyone test any of those apps with their samsung galaxy s2 and see if they crash please? that could rly help me alot
bump, cmon guys all i need is a small test or report playing those 2 games
Same Here
I have the same Problem here so you are not alone.
Me too
I just recently got the full version of the game and it freezes while the free one worked fine
Crashes mostly are due to the app, check the app's comment on market

Stuttering in Youtube?

I'm watching a video side by side with my Note 2 and it looks like the Note 3 stutters when playing back the same video. Nothing crazy but it's there. I mean there's stuttering in the browser. Now there's stuttering in Youtube. Videos my freaking 3 year old hacked touch pad can play smoothly. What the hell is going on here?
I can't be the only one experiencing this. I'm starting to regret upgrading to the Note 3. My only hope is a custom rom comes along and solves all this crap.
No issues with me, and I watch two videos at a time. I'm using a T-Mobile n3.

The same thing is happening to me but only when watching the Hulu plus app. I switch it to med quality, everything plays smooth. But only in High quality its unwatchable. It might be the app itself.

I too am having these issues. Minor stuttering on Youtube App and Hulu Plus app on high settings Major Stuttering. I guess I'm trying to determine if this is a software/app issue or a hardware issue. I also tried a Movie Trailers app with HD Trailers. I think it was called Cine Movie Trailers, and it had minor stuttering like the youtube app. If someone can try these apps specially the Hulu Plus app which seems to have the biggest problem, it would be greatly appreciated. Wan to make sure before I request an exchange.
Thanks!
It could be smart pause, try disabling it.

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately smart pause setting is off. Seems to be something else. Anybody can check if they have this problem in hulu plus high setting?
Thanks

Dont bother with an exchange. It has to be a software issue because our devices are more than capable of playing videos. Besides im on my second exchange and the same stuttering happens in both apps

I have this issue on my tmobile Note 3. I first noticed it in the Hulu Plus app whenever I set the quality to high. Second time I noticed it was streaming video through video players such as mx video and the stock video player. This would happen with standard avi videos as well as 720, 1080 videos. Haven't tested youtube though.
Hello everyone!
Update: So I went to my local AT&T store to check these issues on the demo unit and installed the Hulu Plus app and the playback is exactly the same that we're experiencing. On the YouTube app though, the playback was smooth as butter and what I noticed was the YouTube app on the demo unit had the old YouTube logo on it's icon. So when I got home I uninstalled the youtube app updates and returned it to it's factory installed state. That resolved the YouTube problem!!
As for the Hulu Plus app, I contacted Hulu and went through their troubleshooting steps with no success and then answered some questions about my device. The representative then stated that the data was passed on to their mobile developers. So I'll keep anyone updated if that yields some results. If you're having these issues with Hulu Plus, I encourage you to notify it to hulu customer support on their web page. They gave me a 2 week credit on my subscription for my inconvenience.
Hope this gets resolved soon.

Thanks. The hulu plus app is definitely jacked. What i find interesting is the adds usually play right, but when it gets to the actual show, it stutters.

Yeah, I found that odd also. But I think the ads play at a lower picture quality. That's what I think anyways. I'm not sure what's happening there
Hi everyone,
Just to let you guys know that Hulu sent me an email saying that they "put a fix in place on their side of things" and instructed me to shut down my device for 60 seconds and turn it on and play a video. So I did and videos seem to be playing smooth. No more stuttering! The app seems to have lost the option to choose video quality instead it chooses it automatically depending on your connection speed. Video quality is very good though!

I dont think the fix was applied to the tmo version because I'm still laggy and I can still choose a video quality

I, too, have this problem. Thought I was going crazy at first because it was so slight I'm on non rooted stock rom but has Apex launcher installed. I recall Youtube videos playing fluenty at some point before installing Apex. No+ saying Apex is the culprit here. But that is my "fixpoint"

So have you tried to uninstall Apex to see if the stuttering in YouTube went away? I have Nova installed and can't remember if I tried the youtube app while I still had Touchwiz on because I installed Nova almost right away.
I'm going to try this tomorrow I guess just to say I tried it because you never know. Though I doubt it because I also have stuttering in scrolling on almost any browser and that I definitely checked while I was still fully stock, no Nova and no root.

Weird lag

Hi everyone,
My note 4 seems to start lagging recently after I play games on it for a while. When I close the game, the phone itself lags as well. It's very obvious too when I'm just scrolling through my drawer. Has anyone experienced this? The few times I noticed the lag was also when my battery was low, <25% and I thought it may have been power saving mode. However I checked and power saving mode was off. Also when I use the facebook app any anytime, it has a scroll lag. I noticed that too when I'm browsing on certain sites (ie; XDA).
I tried factory reset and that did not fix the issue and I have the phone too long to exchange/refund
Dont worry bro
Use nova launcher for best experience
same dam problem

I am having the same problem.intalled Nova turned off s voice. UGH PLEASE HELP
I never experienced any lag using stock launcher!, i want to stay my phone the way i first bought it.
if i change my launcher it feels like im not using note 4 anymore!
I'm already using nova. I tired stock browser but sites like XDA still lags when I scroll. Also when I game for a while, the game will start to lag. When I exit to home screen the phone itself lags too! I have to clear the ram for the phone to go back to normal. The weird thing is, the ram was only 2.22gb/2.72gb, it's not even close to max!
Stop clearing your ram now
Try uninstall some background app like facebook and see the effect
Hm interesting, after I last cleared my ram. I've been gaming for 2hrs straight and 0 lag... I've swapped back and forth from game to homescreen to whatsapp etc and no lag at all... Only thing different is I'm charging my phone at the same time. Think charging has something to do with it?

Just got myself an exynos note 4. Very nice phone but aside from a little touchwiz stutter, games such as real racing 3 and clash of clans stutter. My nexus 4 ran them fine. Did a quick antutu benchmark to see whats up and i got 49000 on antutu without flight mode on. What do you think? Benchmarks say my phone should handle them with ease but thats not the case. Anyone with a solution? I already disabled many samsung and google apps. Lag is evident only in games.

You're not using Power Saver, are you?
My note's benchmark seemed normal and I play Clash of Clans as well and it seems okay. The game I play most often is Summoners War and that is what's causing the lag. Come to think of it, I think I had an issue with the lag on my Nexus 5 as well but I might have chalked it up to the phone being old so when this happen on my brand new note 4, it raised a red flag. But still, I'm still confused why the game would lag my phone even thought it there's plenty of memory available.

Nope, confirm that power saving is not on.

I just tried clash of clans on my brothers s5. Turns out the stuttering is even worse. Im testing this by zooming in on the base and scrolling rapidly back and forth on a canon for example. I will test this on my nexus 4.i too thought coming to a phone as powerful as the note 4 i shouldnt see any stutters but if its happening on an s5 then i guess its not a hardware issue on my phone but rather an android thing? Tested this also on my iphone 6 with no stutters at all.

I was having the same problem, so believe it or not, the way I stopped it was going into application manager and disabling S Health. I don't know how or why, but this stopped all the lag. After installing Ktoonez kernel, I thought maybe I could turn it back on, but when I did, I started getting the same lag again. I hope this helps because I know it is frustrating

I second Keith's recommendation. My 2-day-old, rooted Note 4 was lagging and was particularly noticeable when scrolling through some web pages or content in Flipboard. But it lagged in other places as well. Also stuttered or paused when playing podcasts. I tried installing Nova Launcher, I tried removing Wanam Xposed, and some other things but it finally went away when I started to disable various Samsung bloatware. The success occurred after I disabled SHealth and some other things (I just happened to do a few all at the same time). I suspect SHealth was the culprit because it was probably running in the background all the time, trying to track my step count.
I ended up keeping Nova Launcher since I gives me some useful customizations, and I love Wanam + Xposed, partly because it lets me get rid of Samsung's Search menu item that always used to appear in my notifications shade.
It's been over a week, now, and no more lag / stutter. Absolutely loving the phone, now.
I haven't gone back to re-enable some of the bloatware in order to confirm that SHealth was the culprit because, quite frankly, I have no interest in the stuff I disabled, anyway.
I have also disabled S health but I never had a problem with Clash of Clans when even I had S health Enabled.. whereas the other game I play (Summoners War) it always start to lag after an hr+ of gaming.
I already disabled s health through the app drawer but that does not solve the problem. Coc will run fine for a few mins and then start to stutter like its not optimized. To test for hardware issues i installed dead trigger 2 and injustice gods among us and they absolutely fly. The problem seems to be with coc. I am using an exynos note 4 on stock rom stock kernel. Any thoughts?

return your phone
when your phone starts to stutter after some time playing games, it might be thermal throttling. depending on the game you can notice it more or less.

I can hear my game playing during a phone call.

Playing clash of clans i get a phone call and i can hear the games music.Any ideas on how to stop this? And does anyone else have this problem.
I had this problem on my 2014 X and my S6 so its definitely not limited to this phone. I don't have any answers unfortunately.

Had same thing on note4. Sounds normal to me.
Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
I came over from the rooted note 3 on kk,I never had this problem lucky I can just turn off the game sounds in options.
I really want this phone to rock,but it almost seems like it was released a little to early,seems to be alot of minor bugs that will hopefully be fixed in future updates.

Simcity Buildit Really Choppy

Hello,
I just received my phone last night, got everything set up and started playing one of my games (Simcity)
Right from the get go it has been very choppy, severely affecting the game play.
Anyone else having this issue? Any ideas what could be causing it? Any ideas on how to fix it?
It is a Nexus 6p 32GB, everything is stock.
Thanks,
Relaxedcrazyman
May be more of an Android Marshmallow issue than anything else, best to reach out to the developer for their opinion though.
thanks, i sent an email to their support.
just wondering if anyone else is experiencing the issue. i am hoping that others are having the issue and not that i have a defective device...

On my SGS4 Active the game Simcity Buildit is choppy, too. It has something to do with Google Play. When logging out of Google Play from within the game it suddenly runs perfectly smooth.

Switching cities
I get irritated when I have to switch between cities after going to trade building, it takes unusually long. Pissed off with Nexus 6p!
