Problem with google search and playing videos
Hi! I want to report bug with google search app (GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk) on enabled tablet ui. I'm on m5 v2 build with latest camera + youtube fix with LCD Density set up to 128. When i press it, it fc. It doesn't work at all. And second bug, when i record video witch Camrecorder, i can't play it from gallery. First time when i press play button it shows error, i press ok, and when i press second time play, it runs, but only sound - video is full of artifacts. By the way, this rom is exelent! It runs perfectly! And I'm sorry for my bad english.

it is a known issue with the video as we dont have full hardware decoding so the workaround is mx player arm v7 codecs and set the encoding to software as for the search bar first time i hear about it i will try it out now

Hi this thread is a great Idea. I actually have a couple of questions
if I use youtube and camera fix from the third post, Youtube app will work properly and panorama mode in camera will work but I won't be able to record videos more than 30 secs right?
also what resolution does the video camera record in? and can I change it?
thanx in advance

there's no way yet the camera can record in HD right?

Its a hardware limitation the highest we can record is 800x480 and the devs are working on it

Huge Issue:
Sometimes (after a while of usage) my apps are not starting when i press their icons. The app drawer isnt working aswell then. The Icon just glows up, but nothing happens. I cant get into settings aswell. After this happens, my screen gets a SOD if i turn it off and want to wake up my device. Only solution for that: Pull out the battery or if there is no SOD yet, reboot the device.
This problem does NOT belong to the launcher, since i have tested apex, nova and trebuchet.
This problem does NOT belong to a specific a2sd script, since i have tested Link2sd and darktremor script.
This problem does NOT belong to a bad flash or sth like that, since i have made 3 installs from scratch for now (task29) and always had the same issue after a while.
My config:
Bootloader: Tested with clk and magldr
CWM: latest
ROM: [04-05-12][ROM] Unofficial AOKP for HD2 [Milestone 5 v2][HWA][4.0.4][tytung_HWA_r1]
Kernel: tytung_hwa_r1
This issue seems to be more rare since i have only heard of a few others having these issues.
Regards

[Q] Music stop playing on CM10

Hi,
I have an annoying issue on the latest Quarx's CM10 (18/03). I have this problem since November I think. When I'm playing music from my SD card on any music app (usually I use Play music or PowerAMP) it stop randomly after some music when screen is off.
I think it happen because of RAM management which kill running app on IDLE to increase battery life. But I tried tweak RAM setting and it didn't change nothing.
I think I'm not the one with this issue. I'll take every idea to try to fix this.
Thank you.

Keep your app in foreground.
And if your player has notification thingy, the atk can't kill that app. I think both apps you mentioned has a notification control, SDL it can't be memory management!
Sent from my MB526 using xda premium

Thank you for your reply.
I can keep the app in foreground but it take approximately 30-45mo of RAM so my phone will become very laggy.
I think you're right when you say it can't kill the app because of the notification. But I think android system kill an other background service which is necessary to the music be played correctly. I'll trying to investigate when I'll have more time.
I have an other app called Deezer (French Spotify service). This app never stop or less frequently. I think it's because it use it own decode system (music file are encrypted on the server or memory card). The app don't use external services to decode music so the app continue playing after hours.
Btw I find strange that I'm the only one to complain about this. I will make a clean install in some day.

AW: [Q] Music stop playing on CM10
Hi, you test supercharger script? With this you can look apps in memory or under general I saw a post how to look apps in memory.
Gesendet von meinem MB526

Yes in know how to do it. But if I lock music player in memory, it will take about 40mo all the time. My Defy will become very laggy.

Hi Husi10,
I have the same issue as you about music playback.
My problem is the following :
When I'm using Deezer app with CM10 or CM10.1, music playback is frequently laggy (always in the very begenning of the tracks) and sometimes it stops playing in some unknown situations (as you described on this thread).
This issue doesn't occur on CM7.
Did you, as me, notice this playback lags in the begenning of the tracks ?
Did you find a fix or a workaround for this issue on CM10.x since March (date of your post) ?
Thanks

Hi,
Yeah, music playback on Deezer's app is laggy in the beginning of every track. I think there's no workaround because it's a bug with the app itself. It happens also with my tablet (Nexus 10). But playback never stop by itself.
After my post, I did a clean install (wipe data) and also format my SD card. It helped a lot, I never experimented this kind of bug again.

Thanks for your reply.
In my experience, music lags issue only occur in CM10.x. Did you already test Deezer on CM7 ?
[EDIT] So, do you think that Deezer is buggy like this only since Android 4.1 ?
On which ROM your Nexus 10 runs ?

My Nexus 10 runs on AOKP (4.2.2). I think it's an issue with Deezer itself, whatever the rom.

Hi,
I'm just (re)testing Deezer on my Defy running Quarx CM10.1 build (2013-06-26).
I've changed I/O scheduler to "cfq" (before my change, it was "sio") and it seems to work better, I don't notice lags at the beginning of each songs for the moment. :fingers-crossed:
Is it the same for you ? Could you test it in order to confirm my potential finding ?
Thanks

Oh yeah that's really better with cfq scheduler. Thank you for the tips.

After one more day of tests with cfq i/o scheduler, I've noticed that lags at the beginning of a song still occur BUT only after launching Deezer and only with the first song. The next songs playback is smooth.

Songs stop playing suddenly.

Hello all my Nexus 4 stops playing a song sometimes and when I turn on the screen it "flickers" a lot also I am using a Lockscreen Pattern for security... when the song stops it would change to camera to music app in the lockscreen I really don't know how to explain it.. also I am using Poweramp and sometimes Google Play Music both have the same problem...
I am running 4.2.2 jelly bean anyone know how to fix this? also the screen will not respond...
I have a screenshot of it...
Its something like this..... thank you

Stock Jellybean on the N4, or a custom rom jellybean?
Were you able to get a logcat when it happens, might help some rom devs figure out why it's doing it. (if I had to make a guess, I'd say some kind of wake lock issue, but you'd think google play music would know better)

That is weird, guess you'll just need to pre-suffle a playlist I guess.

I used to get the visual glitches too until I installed dashclock with the music extension. Annoyingly it doesn't actually provide play/pause/skip functionality but it gets rid of the glitches and that's good enough for me since my headphones allow the rest. I never had the random stopping issue though. At least you've found a decent solution for now.

Best is to flash full latest Wanamlite <rom and the check results. Not ONLY the kernel!
I wish you it is not HW related. Have a camspeed test (free app at playstore).

Do you have HDR on, if so turn it off. HDR needs 3 exposures (think of it as 3 shots) ; it WILL therefore lag.

Problem with On Demand TV apps
I have a real niggle at the moment where I cannot use the BBC iPlayer, the ITV Player or the 4OD apps. The apps work and provide the ability to select programmes to watch but each fails to play video and audio (sometimes e.g. iPlayer there is broken/distorted audio).
I have noted that there are a few similar reports on maclaw.pl from other rom users.
In earlier versions of the ROM these apps did work, but I cannot recall which. I am currently using 11-20140318-UNOFFICIAL-golden.
I used to get lots of reboots but after installing this ROM and doing a factory reset these have stopped. This version for me is incredibly stable and works well except for this issue.
Can this be resolved?

Maybe the problem with audio driver ..
Just a suggestion try to backup your rom then un install dspmanager and flash acid audio engine with clear audio + addon and see if it is solved .. if not just restore your rom again .... ( just for trying)
I was using it with my wonder and now use it with s3 mini and work good

Yeah thanks for that never thought of that will try that later ....... BTW jus asking what's the latest version of the rom? Is there an update for it?
