Hello guys, ever since I got my phone. Everytime the phone trying to do update an app or installing one it froze for a new minutes until the apps is installed. It was like that on stock and it is like that on every custom roms I've tried. I don't know if I'm the only one or not. Please help and thank you.

Does it completely freeze up?

No, just for a few mns until the application is done updating/ installing or un installing Then the screen either hang or locked itself. Like the system did a soft reboot.

It's normal for a device to slow down or lag a little when installing apps sometimes, the screen locking definitely isn't normal though.
Even my does the same

Even when installing app? That's odd. My note 5 doesn't freeze when installing apps or updating them
It's an issue with aosp package installer. You won't see it on other devices as the oems re-write that code.
It's mostly noticeable on anything FB puts out. As they are known for having the worst coded apps on the market.

So far I don't think there is a fix. Can't say about official Google. As I have not run a stock rom since I got my first device. If they have fixed it they have not pushed the fix to aosp which is happening more and more with google

Well as the custom roms sync their source with aosp, then Google has not pushed a fix if there is one. This is happening more and more. Google fixes something but doesn't push it to aosp so it stays broken in 3rd party roms until the devs find a fix
Has this been solved? It's happening to me.
facing same issue. Also my YouTube pause video whenever some app gets updated in background.
Noticed this along with horrible battery life due to system ui restarts or something in all latest may version of Roms. I went back to b29I or whatever "I" version stock rom. No problems since. Goodluck

If so, tell me what you guys freeze, please.

Ah okay, well ive been having issues with my phone randomly rebooting and nothing working, cant send mms, apps freezes, and etc. But i can still make out calls.
Maybe what im freezing is the problem.
Could be. Unfreeze everything and reboot, see if that helps. If it does then you know there's something you shouldn't be freezing. What rom are you on? What programs are you freezing?
I happened both for me on Boinix-V and Project-V. I froze both DRM, Device Management, GTalk, and SNS. I also got a phone replacement and the same problem i am getting.
Yep.
I freeze email and Gmail.
I'm 16 I don't use email or gmail. lol wtf?
that saved a crapload of battery too
oh and i always freeze DRM

Well if it's happening over multiple roms and phones then I would be inclined to say that it's something you're doing. Does the problem go away after you unfreeze?

Well i did a fresh install of asgard and i havent had the problem.
I think it might have been something i downloaded or froze, ill do a little testing to see.
I'm trying to install some of the Humble Indie Bundle 6 games on my N4 and I'm running into a problem I've never faced before. The APK files download just fine, but when it comes to actually opening them to start the installation, it won't install. The button that says "install" does nothing when I press it. I checked in my security settings and "unknown sources" are allowed. I included screenshots of both these in the attached files. I even tried un-selecting the "verify apps" option, in case the humble bundle app had been removed from their white list for some reason, it still won't install.
I thought it might be a bug with the Humble Bundle beta app so I tried to uninstall and reinstall it, but it too is getting stuck on the installation. It downloads just fine but it won't install. I've tried rebooting my phone, still no luck. I'm on the latest Jelly Bean 4.2.2. Has anyone else been getting this problem, or does anyone have any idea on how I could fix it? I didn't pay much for the games but it sort of sucks to have bought them and be unable to play any of them like this.
I'd like to try with some more third party apps to see if it's all of them, or if it's just the Humble Bundle APKs that are causing me trouble (if it's the later I can probably contact Humble Bundle and ask them for assistance), but I'm not familiar with those. Could someone please recommend some good safe ones I can test out?
My humble bundle beta installed fine. So at least you know the app should work. Sorry can't help you more. Hopefully someone else has a solution. Silly question... have you tried rebooting?

are you running paranoid android? disable halo, or so ive read.
Any app that requires permission to draw over other apps can potentially cause what you're experiencing. Examples include but are not limited to:
- the HALO feature in PA ROMs
- Screen filter apps
- Other floating apps

Could any of that happen if I haven't rooted?
Also,
I've just tried to reinstall TubeMate, another third party app I like. It's APK also refuses to install, which probably means there's a problem with my phone and not just the Humble Bundle app. I'm starting to think I'll have to factory reset the phone, which is certainly do-able, just... not very fun.

how much storage space do you have left in your phone?

Yes, this can happen without root access. I've seen your problem addressed several times in multiple forums and ALL of them is because of a floating app.
Look through your app list. Is there ANY app that, as a feature, floats on top of other apps?
Eg, Facebook Messenger, Screen Filter, Floating Stickies, AirCalc, etc
Just force stop them and you should be able to sideload apk's again.

The phone says 1.68 GB are free, but when I plug it into my desktop it tells me 1.57 GBs. So... somewhere between those two.
EDIT:
Found it... It was the Twilight app (no, not THAT Twilight... lol), it's an app that tints the whole screen a slight redish color so it doesn't hurt my eyes too much when I use the phone in the evening. That must count as a "floating". The moment I disabled that I was able to successfully install the APK. YOU SIR, ohyearar, have won a thanks.
Hi everyone,
this problem is following me in every rom I try!
CM, Stock, 5.1.1, 5.0.1, it does'nt matter, in every rom I face this problem....
you see, music is playing in background and some other apps like Hotspot shield are running in background at the same time... as soon as i open firefox, music player completely shuts off and so does hotspot shield...
in every rom I face this problem so now I'm starting to think maybe its a hardware issue... could it be a hardware issue?
anyone with the same issue?
I have Flyme installed on my phone and its a good rom and I dont want to change it, even if I change it im sure the problem with come to me again in other roms, so help me fix this
Android closes apps when it is low on memory (RAM).
I don't think its related to that, I have plenty of ram when that happens, besides, closing all background apps at once?
and why does this always happen when I open a web browser?

I just told you in my previous reply.
Maybe that web browser uses all the memory.
Or does it happen with every web browser?

I don't have alot of apps running in background, 2GB of RAM and still its not enough for a web browser and a music player beside 5 or 6 other apps that each of 'em need 60 to 70mb of RAM? That's strange
I tried 3 or 4 different web browsers, Chrome, Stock web browser, Firefox, and some other browsers... all the same

Maybe one of your apps causes the issues. After all, you changed several ROMs (clean wiped I assume) and the only constant would be the user apps you always install/restore after a flash.

Well, I don't use any battery monitoring or task managing app, but good point, let me check my apps again.
Nope, checked again, no suspicious app... non that I think have something to do with this problem

Go one by one and install and uninstall apps, while repeatedly trying to run the ones you stated in your first post. If there is an app causing that problem, just try doing some old fashioned process of elimination.

Hello!
I have a samsung s7 edge and after the update of Nougat the phone is not working correctly.
Especially when i use whatsapp & viber the keyboard has a big delay when i write something and when i go out from a chat the keyboard remain in the screen for 2-4 sec.
I tried to run some apps like malwarebytes or to run from setting menu the device maintenance. I tried also a factory reset which was the most effective solution but just for 1 week. After the first week the crashing in the apps came back.
Any thoughts for solution? \
Thank you!
Disable the prediction and the lag will stop
I have this too. On Nougat and GBoard. Super annoying. The other thing I noticed is that the voice icon disappears from the keyboard and have to restart the phone.
Are you runing stock Samsung rom? Also did you flashed a custom kernel? This looks like some cores are off to me but i might be wrong...

Does anyone have any clue when Android 7 will land on the Zoom? It's kinda silly that it didn't launch with it to begin with. But the year older Zenfone's have since received Android 7 and we're still waiting ..
Already launched. Updated today.
1.2Gb download
Oh wow, look at that timing
I hope it doesn't cause the white line issue when I install it!

I just downloaded the update, I'm gonna leave it charging and updating. :fingers-crossed:
Just updated mine.
Main noticable things are:
- the new notification interface,
- the quick links page allows more icons and has better design, and
- Portrait mode on the camera.
What else called your attention?
Did a factory reset after install. Thought Asus cleaned up pretty well on Nougat for Zenfone 3 but the 3 Zoom's Nougat strips away almost everything. Apps could only get clearer if they replace Memo with Google Keep and not preload Duo.
I think there is more wall papers in wall paper slideshow.
Nougat ZenUI is much better than Marshmallow was.
Greatly appreciate the update. Yes, the UI is still terrible color and design, but Nougat makes this feel tolerable. Especially the ability to remove sooooo much bloat. Glad that I could finally get Google Phone dialer installed and working without the ASUS Call screen. Now if I could set long hold back button to kill I'd be quite happy.
Can you guys get me ota link ?
Use Android Terminal to Run this command
cat /data/data/com.asus.dm/files/tree.xml
Then upload tree.xml from your sdcard
Thanks

Just looked at existing ROM links on their site and plugged in the new version number. TADA!

Interesting I'm still unable to install Google Phone (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.dialer), stuck with ASUS's app.
Another one that bothers me is the Contacts app. I'm used to Google's stock and I find ASUS option way worse.
Ideas anyone?
I'm using google phone app on mine.
Download the Contacts APK from APKMirror.
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-contacts/
My camera app stopped working after the update :\ Even tried resetting it. Other camera apps work fine. Asus support says to reset my phone and otherwise send it in (for a software issue?!). I guess I'll be resetting, but this is the second time support told me to send in the device for a software issue. Can't say I'm impressed.
