I know its early and I'm all for sticking it out with this thing but just wow. Apart from having to reboot it at least every day if not every day, I came home today and the thing wouldn't even turn on. It must have locked up in standby and I couldn't get it to wake up. I had to hold down volume up and power to revive it. I'm wondering if its some app I have running in the background so I uninstalled a few and will see. Is this common or am I the unlucky schmuck.
I have not had anything that bad.... just a few FC's ..Maybe an app or launcher?
I get hundreds of fcs but not restarts... I would return that pronto. My fcs usually consist of XDA and Facebook...

I get neither....no fc's or freezing...I'm rooted and on the latest update

The only instability I have is with the browser locking up (not force closing, just not responding to input), and that seems to have started after updating to 3.0.1 (but before installing Flash).
i haven't had many fc's at all...maybe 5 or so since I bought it wednesday.
Overall its been running really smooth
Don't get me wrong.. its smooth as butter but closing the Facebook app is almost always a fc not to mention the launcher reloads often when old apps are closed. I am rooted as well with the latest update

I haven't had any FCs or lockups. Its been been perfect and rock solid.
I have had mine reboot and freeze while in standby quite a few times. But it ain't no worry, as long as it turns back on.

Same here and I've had mine since launch day
Mines been pretty solid, a few fc's here and there but I've never had to constantly restart it.
Day 8 without a restart. FC's here and there.

Good to know. I'll keep uninstalling crap until it stabilizes.
Yeah most of the instability, if not all, are just apps that aren't fully compatible. I've had my fair share of FC, but its all app based.
Aka Facebook, etc.
People who say they have no foreclosures I don't see how your device is different than the rest. Browser forecloses constantly...

Device hardware can of course vary or be faulty, but these problems (force closes, not foreclosures lol ) are mostly due to buggy software and user error.

Never had a forced restart. FCS sure, but that's usually for certain programs, not everything in general.

Yea been playing it, can get a little laggy on the shift but no where near as bad as the OG EVO (heh)
PS3 controller will be a nice addition, just gotta be on CM7
I can't get it to load into a new game.

It installed fine and ran good for me. Gets laggy somtimes though.
Edit: I was messing around and discovered the cheats on the same for PC. Like GUNSGUNSGUNS for all... Guns work. Lol and im gonna mess around with the img file today to see if i can add car mods and etc. Like PC.
Got it running on mine, took quite a while to get all the extra files downloaded but it runs. Albeit a bit laggy at certain spots.
Well this sucks. I was going to purchase this today and now it's not even showing up in my market. When I go to it online it keeps saying that my device is not compatible with this app.

Same for me, just clear market Data and cache in the manage applications menu and reload the market. Then search for GTA 3 and it should be like the 2nd or 3rd app in the market search,
Although I can say it doesn't run smooth enough for me on the shift to play it. Works great on A100 tho

Once I clocked it up to 1.6ghz I played with it for another 30 minutes , and I can say it played better at that point (was playing at 1.4 before). Although there still were noticeable framerate drops alot of the time, but it was alot better than getting 10 frames a second 70% of the time.
At 1.4 there were times that the sound would keep cutting in and out, and I probably got 1-2 fps. Most of the time it was when I hit other cars or started speeding as fast as I could. (thats what GTA is about tho right? xD)
Keep in mind too I was on Sense so that may make the experience different from AOSP users.
So, I bought the game when they first launched but never downloaded it, when I tried to download it my device wasnt supported anymore lol so I had to google it up and found version 1.1 apk and I had the issues like the ones described in this post already.
Luckly enough a couple days ago the apk got updated to 1.2 and all I can say is that is very playable if you are in my situation you just need to download the apk (google it) I had installed the SD files already ( the ones for adreno gpu) because I actually bought it.
But if you want to try it you can get the sd files too from the black internet market :0
Im running Supreme sense, dodge kernet at 1.6 on demand, I bet the version 1.2 runs way better on a AOSP room plus you can use an external controller, but still I'm already progresing thru the game almost to the second part of it.

Yeah, I have it on the A100 too, its runs like a beast, I can't say for my shift though, since I'm waiting on a replacement. On my A100 though, the buttons don't quite scale right, making movement a little wierd other than that, fine though. Someone on AOSP (a mostly clean, not bloated AOSP) should try it and see how it plays.
When I'm on a website (or any forum app like this one) why does the scrolling speed lag by a half second? Nexus 4 is my first android and I love it, but I'm coming from using iPhones for the last 4 years where there was no lag at all.

I seem to have an issue an I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing a similar problem or knows a fix. Basically the stock browser keeps hanging while loading Web pages. It seems to wait a bit longer than normal before loading pages more often than not. It happens both on wifi an hsdpa. I've noticed chrome doesn't have the issue at al. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
Slightly off topic but how the heck do you do a rollover on a button? In any browser? I like the stock browser but I hate having to long press on a button then hit back on the soft key to get it to work! I'm no iFan but I do have to commend apple on getting that one thing right. Why does it take these android devs so long to figure this out lol.
I think the main issue is with android fragmentation, where as Apple only have their iDevices.. Gives them more control.
Op I get my note 3 later, will test it out and try a few solutions.. Hopefully there's a silly fix somewhere as I was planning on using stock browser as it's always performed well!! Have you tried dolphin? That's a quick snappy browser imo.

Is there a way to save pages for offline reading? This feature was in Note 2's stock browser.
Also, is there a way to sync desktop browser bookmarks like on Chrome? Thx.

I've been playing with the stock browser for the last day or so since getting this phone. Super smooth and fast. No hiccups or laggy periods. And I also agree the new tab switching is nice compared to older versions I've used (I came from a note 1). The only gripe I have is that you can't seem to load new tabs in background. Now, every time I open a new tab, it loads upon top. Irritating, although I'll have to get used to it.

What about kinetic scrolling? Is it as responsive as note 2? Also I am experiencing this annoying issue when I click on a picture on facebook mobile website it is displayed in very small size. Chrome does not have this issue neither does the stock browser on note 2

Also something that anoyes me a lot in the note 3 is the auto fit pages.. It seems to have disappeared even in chrome. Really a bummer .. With this gorgeous screen you are left out with pages that you have to slide from side to side to be able to read a zoomed page :banghead:

Step away from the Stock Browser would be my suggestion. Ive been using Chrome and havent had any issues. There are other browsers that have been tested and proved great performance

Not sure how we are supposed to get it. Had the spotlight app show up a day or so ago and then nothing. Trip to play store app doesn't show an update available either.

Running the latest version of stock AT&T software, rebooted phone, connected to WiFi, uninstalled and reinstalled spotlight. Still no hat.
So I just turned my phone on this morning checking the web and this little red/Orange hat starts floating all over my chrome browser screen. Finally manage to tap it and it's pretty awesome. I don't really see the usefulness but it was quite entertained and probably looked like an idiot out here dancing in the shop following the hat.
I got it this morning too. Finally. A day late.

when i first saw the hat floating around my screen i got nervous like it was some new virus/malware. then i remembered i downloaded the app. While the content was fit for a child, the way it showcases the technology to be able to watch a movie in a full 360 degree field of vision which is pretty amazing. this has some great potential.
I haven't gotten it yet, but have not taken the ota, think that has something to do with it?

I woke this morning and had the hat floating around. I think it was a very cool thing and enjoyed it. It really does show where this could go with a fully immersive environment.
I am using nova launcher by the way but I highly doubt it should matter.
Got it last night as well
