PowerAMP Large Widget - HTC EVO 3D

Anyone else having static come around the Large widget? It's not really a problem for me, but I did notice it while setting up my different scenes.
NOTE: Reapplying the widget seems to reset the image.

I did notice it around my "beautiful Widgets" home screen but it only stays a few seconds

No, my large poweramp widget seems ok. I tried removing and re-applying the widgets a few times to see if the static would appear, but it seems ok to me.

My issue with poweramp is if it's playing through bluetooth and I receive a call it pauses but doesn't start up again after call. I have to force stop ape then restart ape.

I didn't have static on PowerAMP widget, but I did on Springpad. which screen did you have the poweramp in? I had it on the very last homescreen to the left, but my springpad, which had the static, was in the farthest right screen.

No issues here I have tried a few different screens, reboot, reload widget a few times can't seem to replicate it. Once upon loading the widget it immediately flicked but remained constant and fine after that, also that was on a middle screen(not sure if that would actually make a difference) but I have tried and can't seem to replicate your issue sorry.

PowerAMP works fine for me. I haven't had any issues with the large widget in Rosie or LPP.

Is it me, my poweramp sounds horrible on this phone.

Current Bugs

Lets use this thread to list any bugs or problems we have come across.
By request of "test878", here is a list of all bugs in this thread. Did my best to add everything. If I missed something, or if anything I posted isnt considered a bug, please let me know and I will update. Lets first start off with the most important bug...
I can't seem to install Cyanogenmod7 at all and the bootloader is tied up pretty tight.
Anyone noticing any graphics lines in their widgets? Im getting some kind of glitch over my Youtube widget, and my Twitter widget. Update: Rebooting fixed it for now, will update if it comes back.
When I reboot the phone, all my apps that are on my sd card icons don't show up. I just get the generic green android icon. I tried messing with fastboot, didn't seem to help.
But my biggest bug and very noticeable problem is that the camera will freeze. This happens a lot. The picture will snap, the preview will come up and stay there. The phone is not frozen because I can hit the home button, but the camera will still be stuck on the same preview even after I hit the icon. Eventually stops after opening it several times. No restart required.
when you have the headphone jack plugged in, and you try to reboot the phone tries to reboot bug hangs with black screen. pressing the power button in any number of ways does nothing but turn the back light off and on (the screen displays nothing)
I have the 100% wake lock issue, its really pudding me off! Does anyone else have this??
WiFi will randomly (not really, it's easily replicated) drop out when connected to a Bluetooth headset, and will not turn back on unless you switch to handset or speakerphone mode.
I am having trouble with the clock/weather widget. It will not find my location for the weather
After said restart and another after it, when spinning thru the different windows, it shows all of the screen with widgets on them as blank until you stop on the different screens.
apps that I put in folders on the rosie and then later remove from said folder somehow show back up in that folder randomly.
HTC trace kb only works the first time or two, then stops working, even though it's still on in settings. Works again if you disable and the re enable, but fails the same way right after.
I think that the sync icon sticking is caused by HTC Watch. As soon as I deleted my account in the app and rebooted it unstuck.
The sizes are off in some apps because of the lcd density.
The notification light for gTalk is still flashing when after you open and reply to a message. To get it to stop, you have to back all the way out of gTalk, and go back to the message you just received.
Phone hard locks on Youtube after playing 3D videos. Screen turns off and capacitive buttons stay lit. Had to pull battery out to reset the phone. Happened on 2 different Evo 3Ds.
Camera goes to/defaults to 2D mode, despite the switch being in 3D mode
The music player is messed up for me with artists that have multiple albums.
When i send a message to someone it shows a green dot in the message app like i received a new message but it was just my message i sent
WIFI will not connect to a corporate secured network after reboot. I have to 'forget' the network, and start from scratch, each and every time.
Noticed when you snooze a calendar alert from the lock screen, it never re-alerts you, it acts like you dismiss it.
Seems the notification sound i have set does not play for my exchange mail. Plays for new gmail, but when new exchange mail comes it, it plays the 'Alpha' tone.
I set up my personal email last night using IMAP. On the lock screen it shows I have 99+ unread emails but on the home screen and in the email section its showing no unread emails.
I'm having a problem with Exchange. In People, the contacts can't be viewed Last Name, First Name, no matter how I try to configure the View settings.
I have had an issue with the camera freezing up on me. I'll take a pic, try to share, and it freezes. Hit the home button and it will respond.
my Yahoo! email won't show ANY of my mail using the native client.
3D will stop working in everything but the camera and gallery. Youtube won't play anything in 3D (just displays 2d), and The Green Hornet won't play in 3D. A reboot fixes it temporarily.
Can't get watchESPN to actually play video.
Anyone having problems with the home button not responding? I have to turn the phone off and then back on before it responds.
When on 3G, the youtube app does not function well. It plays random videos contrary to what you selected to view.
I had a weird bug where the lockscreen was black from about the middle of the LCD screen all the way down, and the top half of the screen was the ring to unlock and my 4 icons. Thing is, I couldn't unlock the screen, or open any of the apps. I tried sleeping the screen on and off, didn't fix it. Finally did a battery pull and that fixed it.
I noticed that when you plug the phone in to charge it always seems to kick the brightness up to the max and you have to turn it down.
the watch (green hornet) app has suddenly stopped displaying 3d.
I'm having an issue where there is a popping sound before the start of any audio. It happens whether i'm starting a text or listening to any audio. It may be an issue with my phone specifically.
Since the OTA I have started having random touchscreen issues such as the touchscreen being completely unresponsive.
Also I will touch on a certain app and another app will start instead.
Another bug when phone is in landscape mode the keyboard calibration tool doesn't show up as an option.
Sometime when I try to press the screen nothing respond in sorting place or move. Also when i restart the phone the phone don't power back up I have to turn it on normal.
Brightness problem. I have my brightness set very low, but when I use the 3d camera to take some pictures, the brightness seems to reset to full brightness. Soon as I go back in display settings and touch the slider just the slightest, it fixes itself.
When I make a call the earpiece seems to go quiet when ringing and then turns up as well. It's like the ringing is fading in and out when I'm making a call.
Download app from Market (FeedR and Currency Exchange) the last two days. Apps installed okay, but when tap to launch app (Both apps), the screen went black, none of the capacitive buttons nor the power button will awake the phone. Have to do a battery pull.
I was watching a Youtube video in 3D and had an incoming call. The screen went black immediately and I had no way of answering the phone, and I got no response from any of the capacitive buttons or power button. I missed the call, and the screen remained black with still no response from the buttons. Eventually I tried the camera button and it worked. Camera app launched and I had full control over the phone again.
phone reboots when i take out usb cable
I just noticed that the Weather Lock Screen doesn't display 3-digit temperatures correctly.
The music player pause and skip forward buttons show a pressed state at all times.
I cant even see the green hornet every time i go to it or to htc watch it tell me i need to update my software and i already did that. And after I tried it again it tell me there is no more software updates for the phone.
When you click on the power button and select restart, it actually shuts down the phone and you have to power it back on.
So I was on the phone today when my battery died and my phone shut off. I went to charge it using my car charger, and the light did not come on. Waited till I got home to try my normal charger, same thing. Decided to take the battery out and now it works fine. Not sure what happened, guess its a.....bug.
I'd appreciate it if anyone can confirm a bug in the calculator app. When I open it, the entire app is huge, its not formatted properly.
Apperantly screen is not big enough to read triple digit temperatures.
top half of the screen stops responding at times, usually after using one of the sprint or HTC apps. pulling the battery and restarting fixed this, cant select power off as it is in the top half of the screen
In the stock messaging app, when using a signature it always saves a blank message as a draft after sending original message.
I've been having random bugs like my screen going black or 3D/2D not turning on off correctly but most of it is stuff that can be corrected easily. The most noticable one I've notices so far is where everything on the lockscreen(background and all) is smushed in the top half of the screen but you still have to drag it up from the bottom to unlock.
about 40% of the time I turn the screen off on my phone, the screen will turn itself back on a second later without me touching anything. Turning it off a second time always keeps it off.
Sometimes, my music will start playing on its own, even though no music player is open
I also have experienced the SD card items Icons not showing up after reboot. Also see the Force Close Pandora pop up when I have not even activated it. Good to know they're looking into it.
My sms messages which were recieved within an hour of rebooting and read, are remarked as unread after a reboot. Annoying.
Seams like some sort of data shadowing.
I just started up my camera and there were horizontal (in landscape mode) green static lines (about 1/8 in thick) across the screen. About 10 which were equally spaced from each other and I could still see what the camera was pointing at. It would not go away even as I switched between video and still, portrait and landscape.

About 10 which were equally spaced from each other and I could still see what the camera was pointing at. It would not go away even as I switched between video and still, portrait and landscape. I have not tried any of the Fr3vo stuff so I am fully stock and on the .7 OTA. I rebooted the phone and it is gone.
When I pause the music player in the middle of a track, go off and do stuff in other apps or in the real world, then come back, often the music player has reset to the beginning of the track.
In the browser, drop-down lists don't work on some sites.
My icons are also changing back to the default green android for apps placed in a folder.
If I'm in the camera in 3D mode then put my phone to sleep using the power button, then press the power button to bring it out of sleep, the unlock screen has the parallax 3D on. The lock screen isn't in 3D of course, but you can see the distortion as if it were stuck in 3D mode. Unlocking your phone fixes this.
twice now I've had my phone just shut off. Not reboot. I go to turn the screen on and nothing happens. I hold the power button down and the HTC splash pops up and the phone boots.
Notification bar just disappears every once in awhile. Have the restart the phone to get it back.

Yeah i did the Over the AIR update, it's not a big deal for me, just something i noticed, that was missing when choosing what apps you want in the lock screen bar
Still can't DL anything manually from the Market. I talked with Bonnie from CNET who did the review from them and she said the market was working on her review model.
I just got another OTA update when I booted back up. Maybe this fixes it? (I got a OTA when I first activated it this morning)

just because it shows in the battery as 100% doesn't mean it's truly 100% battery, i installed Battery Time lite, the OS showed the battery at 60% but battery time showed the batter at 53%, so you could be just a little impatient

you do realize that when the bar reaches the 100% mark the animations stop but it's still charging, once it reaches over the 90% the battery meter shows 100% when in fact it could be 91%

My 3G and 4G keep cutting out on me.
someone mentioned this but this is HUGE. The phone icon disappeared off the lock screen and the icon is gone from the apps menu.

Display corruption - software side

Wondering if any one else has had this issue. The left edge developed a series of blocks that would disappear when I touch he screen, and then reappear when I stopped touching the screen.. The issue persisted into app browser, but reappeared while playing a video in mx player.. It appeared again after I quit mx.
I took screenshots, via the app switcher button throughout, and and I can see the corruption in the shots, and so I suspect its a software issue and not something in the display itself. Screenshots will follow once I compression them a bit.
*edit*
attached.
Rebooting caused the issue to go away. Locking/unlocking made no difference.
Screen Issue
I also have a Problem with the Display. The issue is best seen here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIO2LBMG-dc&feature=youtube_gdata_player
the problem comes and goes... some days nothing happens and then its always flickering!
That's more concerning to me. My issue went away after a reboot, but it wasn't really too bad. That twitching would get on my nerves though.
The first three pics actually look really sick. It would be cool if an app could apply an effect like that. The fourth pic... not so much.

I didn't mind it when it was just doing the first three. Now it sometimes decides to expand into a double-wide box (see attached). I suspect it has to do with letting the screen lock and stay locked during a fullscreen netflix playback, and/or the network monitor mini overlay. Or at least I hope so. I don't want it to be a corruption issue...

Here's how to reproduce home screen flickering

For those who are still getting home screen flickering after .14 update and thinking it's a random thing, here's how to reproduce the problem regardless of docking or performance mode:
1. Go to the home screen (you should have a decent amount of apps, widgets and folders on it).
2. Bring up something that overlays the home screen. This includes:
a. Recent Apps on the left
b. ASUS (or Android) Quick Setting on the lower right
c. Mouse cursor (arrow or circle)
(Opened folders don't seem to trigger the problem.)
3. Keep the overlay on the screen and wait. Within 10 seconds you should see a big black triangle on the lower left of the screen flickering. It takes longer for the flickering to appear for the first time, but afterwards you almost always see it after a few seconds.
4. Once the overlay is gone (for the mouse cursor, just wait about 10 seconds and the cursor will disappear automatically), the flickering will not occur regardless of how long you wait!
Hopefully this issue can be addressed in the next update!! It's starting to annoy me.
P.S. The home screen will also show some very occasional black or white horizontal lines flickering. Now I think this one is truly random. Usually you need to stare at the screen for a long time to see it.
** UPDATE **
As I've mentioned in the reply, I've discovered that having News and Weather widget in the screen on either side of the center Home Screen (but not on the center screen itself) will increase the chance of reproducibility. Also, having a lot of widgets and apps on the home screen will also do it. Having more than 7 or 8 apps in Recent Apps will definitely do it.
I have the triangle thing too but only if I have a couple of apps (enough that I can scroll the list) open.
I can't recreate it but I have seen it before
You also get some 'flickering' when you have SD card mounted and some other app is updating an ongoing notification.
It seems to forget it's place and the ordering of the notifications jump around.
Same Bug here...
i can recreate it using texttab and pressing any overlay item. its irritating
I get this bug as well in .14. I don't remember seeing it in previous ICS builds (.11 or .13), but I wasn't exactly looking for it either.
I used to get this just when it was charging in the dock... now its worse.
I've found that swiping away a few apps from the recent item overlay fixes things for me whenever it happens. It's annoying though
Yes I had this issue as well but I did a Factory Reset and re-installed my apps last night and cannot reproduce this problem now. Anyone else?
I've had this bug in every build except the current one. Seems gone for me. Only problem I've (luckily) seen with my Prime.

Before upgrading to ICS I didn't see the screen flicker at all, but now that I've upgraded I see it all the time when I use a live wallpaper
Mine occurs with use youtube & thumb keyboard
Open youtube app, quickly in the search bar, and as the keyboard and the video loads in the background it'll flicker
also as you type

Yes I finally gave in and did a complete data wipe. Initially the problem went away as expected (because the Home screens were mostly empty after the factory reset). After all the apps and Home screen states were restored, the problem came back as before, completely reproducible.
So this got me thinking: perhaps it was one of the widgets, or too many widgets/folders/apps on the home screen that's causing this flickering. I finally narrowed down to just one: the stock News and Weather widget. As long as this widget is on either side of the center home screen (but not on the center home screen itself), the flickering will appear, completely reproducible! Since this widget is not really functioning properly under ICS (no setup screen) so no lost there.
Oh, and that more-than-7-or-8-apps-in-Recent-Apps thing will also produce flickering regardless of anything, but only when you first open it up. Otherwise it works the same as other overlays if other conditions are met.
Now I have to go restore about 20GB of stuff. Factor reset wiped it all clean. The thing is, I could've figured all this out without the factory reset. Oh well.

The News and Weather made no difference for me, but the number of items in Recent Apps did. Swiping items out of the list made the triangle flicker disappear from the home screen and from within other apps.
This bug only popped up for me once the jitter came back for me - any and all overlays (including the bottom bar, notification popup, and a couple monitoring apps) constantly move up and down a few pixels. I can't capture on my cell phone because the frame rate is apparently in sync, but this video from another poster here shows it:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIO2LBMG-dc&feature=youtube_gdata_player
I really hope Gary and Asus will address this issue shortly.
I sometimes have a flickering and screen freeze during games like Reckless Racing 2 or some other too. A workaround is to go back to homescreen then and close the app where it happened.
Not sure if it's the same problem you guys are talking about.
Got still the 9.4.2.11 build here in germany. This never happened to me in the last weeks, but since 2 or 3 days I got it a few times while running games (without the dock).
The .14 update has greatly reduced this issue for me, but there is still a very brief flicker when showing the recent apps menu if there are a lot of apps in it
same problem
I always had this problem. I did factory reset once and the problem remained. After the .14 update, i still have the problem. Really really really want to have the problem solved..But thank you so much for telling me how to reproduce the problem
can't reproduce it either, but i still experience it once in a while. a minor bug, but still among a long list

Top Screen touch not working well when battery low

Hmmmm, not sure why but sometimes when my battery is low, some parts of the top of the screen tend to stop registering touch input. As an example, if i'm in the Play Store and I try to touch the search bar to bring up the keyboard but it doesn't work...also sliding down from top to bring down notifications also doesnt work.
Anybody else have this issue?
nope
I've never had the screen stop registering touches, but I often have the notification bar stop responding to swipes.
I can resolve the latter by going to the lock screen and trying it there. The notifications will always open from there, and it starts working after being done once.
I've also set up a gesture shortcut to open the notifications by swiping down with two fingers. I'm using Nova Launcher, and that one always works.

I also am using Nova and have had prime installed for a long time.
I also had this issue (though at 100% battery) after a reboot. Rebooting again didn't work. Switched to TouchWiz briefly which also didn't work, but then I hit the Nova Prime button (already installed) and after reverting to Nova Launcher it started working again. Not sure exactly what fixed it though.
I think I'll send a link to the Nova dev and see what he thinks
delete
I sent en email to the devs with a link to the thread. Maybe they will find the cause of the problem
I restored my phone 2 times in the past week and problem randomly comes back. I don't even have to have a low battery, it did it to me 10 minutes after taking it off the charger for a full night. I have no idea what is the cause but about 1/2 inch of the entire top of my screen has no response to touch. I can solve this by rebooting but recently i discovered that if i flip my phone and force it to rotate the screen, the problem stops right away. I doubt its a hardware issue, but then again, if it was software, a restore should have solved that issue.
This is happening to me as well and I'm using Apex, not Nova. Seems like it's been randomly happening since 5.1.1 was installed. Any word yet on a fix?

Why is this thing so slow?

I've only had this thing a month. I didn't expect great performance, but there are times it is just agonizingly slow! Switching from messaging to the home screen seems to take forever. I stare at a blank screen for a long time before the icons appear. Touch also seems sluggish -- I have to press the home icon several times before the home screen appears. I accidently started playing music with the Play Music app but couldn't get it to stop. Pressing the pause icon repeatedly and the music blared on. I couldn't turn down the volume, couldn't turn it off. It just kept going. I'm not talking minutes but certainly a lot longer than I had with OnePlus 3 and Nexus 6. I'm constantly clearing background apps to improve performance, but that isn't helping.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Try disabling the in-built ASUS apps. I was able to disable the following apps with no negative side effects:
ASUS Cover
"Do It Later"
Gallery
Mini Movie
"PhotoCollage"
Quick Memo
Splendid
Weather
ZenCircle
ZenFone Care
I would also recommend switching from the ZenUI Launcher to something like Nova Launcher (or your favorite launcher).
Hope this helps.

How did you flash back to 6?
Yeah, you need to disable the Asus bloat. You can also try using ftllauncher. The issue is limited ram when running the Asus OS.
