[Q] Captivate Refresh and Speaker Problems - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello XDA,
Ever since I updated my rooted Captivate to 2.3 last month, I have been having a few weird problems.
The first problem is that my phone has a weird refresh issue. Basically, sometimes, when switching apps, the homescreen (launcher pro) and other running apps don't retain their display, icons, status, or information. For example, sometimes when pressing the home key, the app minimizes and the home icons all have to reappear and refresh, taking up to 5 seconds. Another example is when using task switcher to switch to and from Reddit is Fun, the program must reload whatever page it was on instead of just jumping back to it.
This gets very frustrating when dealing with anything that needs to stay idle such as web browsers and certain games. It's as if 2.3 is closing the programs and then relaunching instead of retaining them in memory, but it's not consistent.
The other perhaps more frustrating problem is that the speaker does not work all the time. The phone switches to headphone mode and cuts out all the sound. Smacking the top of the phone sometimes makes it come back. Headphones always work, but this is problematic for me since I use my phone as an alarm. I've tried plugging in phones repeatedly, battery pulls, and made sure all volume is up, to no avail.
Thank you,
Brian

Brian, I'm actually in the same boat as you.
To fix the speaker issue (in order to get my alarms back) I've had to remove the back cover and apply a good press down on the simcard, and speaker itself. this has brought back the audio for me.
I've had the phone for 2 years though, so not sure if this is the issue/fix you need. But worth a try.

Some weird quirks I've been experiencing

The past couple of days I've been noticing a couple of quirks with my phone and want to make sure that it's either not just me or some kinda bug in the UI.
The first one is with the speaker. In a couple of different games, when I click around, they'll play some sound. But sometimes, and I've only noticed this two separate times in the past week, the sound will interchange between really quiet and normal volume. I know this info doesn't really help much, but I don't know if it's a battery saving feature of the UI or what.
The more troubling issue regarding sound happened to me today. I was in the middle of a game and the sound just turned off completely. It wasn't muted and I clicked on the rocker to see if I had done so by accident, but nothing came out. I even checked with other games and by testing my ringtone. The only way I was able to remedy this was by restarting. I'm hoping these are purely software based and not my phone's speaker dying. :S
The second thing is less detrimental but weird. Two times today, while playing games, the lights on my dedicated button bar on the bottom would be off. I would exit the game, mess around on the home screen but nothing would bring them back aside from locking and unlocking the phone.
These are not complaints by any means, just a couple quirks I've recently come across that are hopefully universal in some form. Pardon my pickiness.
Ive been getting that sound issue also i was using navigation i basically restarted my phonealso

Thanks for your confrimation on that one.
In case anyone is interested, I think I discovered the button bar lighting issue. I notice it being off today and not turning back on. I then realized that based on the ambient brightness, the light sensor on the top of the phone will either light up the bar or not. Pretty awesome way for it to save some battery.
I've had the sound issues as well. Not a deal breaker to me, but annoying. The issue with audio being low when recording video bothers me a lot tho.

I had the sound issue when clicking when I was stock. It was intermittent and reboot would fix the issue. Haven't seen the others but usually play games on mute.
Discovered a couple more quirks over the course of the week. Would like to know of anyone else has experienced them.
I have the Facebook app (not the HTC Sense one) synced with my contacts. This way, I can fill in photos for the contacts I don't have photos for. But for some, I'd like to use the Gmail icon I made for them. I'll switch it in the linked settings, but after a while, it'll revert back to their Facebook icon. I'm assuming this is a bug with how the app syncs with my contacts?
The second thing is in the stock SMS app. Two times now, over the course of the week, I've clicked to open a particular thread and it instead opens up another one in my list that I didn't click on. I'm fairly sure this isn't user error as I've seen the thread that I want to open up highlight, but I could be crazy.

I have had this happen as well. Something is amiss with sound.

Screen input hangs momentarily

Hi, all. I've had my Atrix for about two months and I love it. But I've had a problem since day one.
On occasion, the touchscreen input driver will freeze for a short period. I'm not sure about the frequency, but my guess is it happens once an hour, and the duration of the freeze tends to be between 0 and 10 seconds. The state of the screen input, at the instant the freeze begins, will persist throughout the duration. So if the freeze happens when I am touching it, it will continue to register the touch until the input mechanism returns to normal.
For instance, say I'm typing on the virtual keyboard and the freeze happens at the moment my finger happens to be on the backspace key. Even after lifting my finger off the screen, the backspace button will stay enlarged and I'll witness the cursor clear out all the text in the window. Touching other virtual keys during this period has no effect; there is none of the expected haptic or on-screen feedback. At some point, the touch interface will wake up and I can perform an "Undo," or else re-type everything.
Things I've tried:
Updating to the latest Atrix firmware
Various virtual keyboards. It actually doesn't have anything to do with the keyboard, because it happens when I'm doing other activities, such as paging around the home screen launcher or engaging with other apps.
Looking at the Watchdog app immediately after a freeze occurs, to see if something is hogging resources. Since it never reports anything out-of-the-ordinary, maybe it's something with the input driver.
Regardless of what the Watchdog said, I tried various ways to help performance, assuming it could be due to the device running out of memory or the CPU is getting too hot or overloaded. Whatever is the case about the use and misuse of task killers and system apps, the freezing behavior was going on from the moment I got the phone. Regardless, I uninstalled any third party apps I don't use and rooted the device so that I could install various memory management apps (e.g. disabling various 3rd party apps in Autostarts app, SetCPU app configured to max at 900 Mhz, Autokill app setting the system to be more aggressive about keeping unused apps out of memory, used supposedly best practices with the Advanced Task Killer app).
Any thoughts?

Sounds like you have some hardware issues. Looks like you have tried just about everything on a software level.
Maybe try flashing it back to 1.57 manually then OTA it back to a fresh stock 1.83.
If the problem is still there then get it replaced if you still can!
If your not familiar with Flashing, Go Here--> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991072
Thanks, I will try to get it returned, and if I can't then I will try flashing it.

I have this same problem ONLY when in the Google Search app. It doesnt matter if I open the app with an icon or the search hardkey, it hangs for several seconds when i try to type my first word. Im using Swype.
Noticing some unexplainable lag just now myself; ffs..
Are you perhaps noticing it while you're connected to a pc via usb? Mine is certainly acting up while on usb connection. I also just re-installed Watchdog tonight.. Try removing that & reboot and see what it does.
No, mine is definitely lagging when I plug it to a usb..

Minor problems, but super annoying! Help?

What is the best folder to put your music in? Mines in the "download" folder directly off of Root/base I guess.
I have SGS II AT&T. Everythings working, no major crashes or anything right now. (I had MIUI-1.11.9 which was awesome, Many features, everything worked great and worked together etc. etc., but started crashing and FC's and ended up getting rid of it like a beater car in the end. (was probably kernel I changed, maybe i'll try it again)
I'm using Entropy's 12082011_exp driver, and Lite'ning rom 6.1 from a "full wipe"
baseband is I777UCKH7
My friend has the same phone, and he told me how it has awesome speeds, e.g.
When he goes to download an app, it is downloaded instantly. No joke, the download bar "Flashes" and its done.
When I got my phone (we're both AT&T same baseband etc) and downloaded stock (no roms no nothing), it would take 10-30 seconds to download the same app.
He says its cause I got "stuff" on my phone and messed with it, but I told him my phone was slower from the get go. - I read that your data uses "APN" to download/access data? maybe mines different, but I have no idea what it is or how to edit it yet.
Minor annoyances: Screen stays lit for 4 seconds unnatended (no finger presses). It never stays lit for the 15-30 seconds I have it set for in options! SUPER ANNOYING, guess not minor... have to press power button, move lockscreen.. etc. etc.
Also: Whenever I have music playing (streaming or flash) It will often stop when the screen powers off (within a few seconds) Which is really bothersome when your trying to listen to music, and don't "need/want" to see the screen.
Pro: Youtube videos play w/ screen on until video ends, then powers off in 3-4 seconds.
Con: Playing a song on winamp or other streaming radio can "kill" the connection when screen powers off.
Also w/ current ROM, I got no bluetooth connection, people can barely hear me even on speakerphone, and they are not very audible on speakerphone either. Battery life for me I think is like 20 hours from 100-0. But I read of many people getting good battery life (using apps or freezing programs etc.)
I have Juice defender ultimate (which I disable when listening to audio then SOMETIMES the songs keep playing when screen powers off, and sometimes they don't) I have battery monitor, and better battery stats, also have setCPU (with profiles set up), and AutoKiller memory optimizer.
How do I screenshot my phone? Does anyone else deal with these issues?

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S3 always at 80% RAM usage / Google Now problems

So, it's been bothering me for a while but my now 2-year-and-2-month old Samsung Galaxy S3 always just runs incredibly slowly. Not only that, but I tend to burn through the battery easily within 6 hours. For the past year and a half, or so, I've had to resort to carrying around two spare batteries with me as it has a tendency to run out of charge in the middle of the day, let alone if I'm out at a music festival or something. I'm not a particulaly heavy user, as in I rarely play video games on my phone, nor do I really watch videos or ever use bluetooth. Occasionally I do use GPS or WiFi, but I try to keep them turned off when I'm not using them. I tend to use my phone for music when I'm in the car, or texting / whatsapp / occasional snapchatting, or checking Pulse News or my internet banking. I don't have a particularly huge amount of apps installed, I don't think. And I regularly hold the Home button, & press the close-all-apps button to make sure that they're not running in the background.
Yet, my phone is so laggy. It's like there's a constant 3 or 5, or even sometimes 10, second delay for whatever action you've initiated to actually occur. You'll press Messages, and it'll take about 4 seconds for my text messages to show up. You'll press Home, and it takes about 3 seconds for it to close. Facebook just took about 8 seconds to load. It doesn't sound alot, but it can be quite infuriating when you're trying to get things done in a hurry. It's even worse when apps are running in the background!
So, I got to check my running processes and there's just loads of things running that both don't appear to be running when I hold the Home button but also shouldn't be running because I haven't used them in forever. It appears my phone has approximately 850MB of RAM, yet my phone tends to ALWAYS run at around 725MB used (currently it's at 751MB, as can be seen in the screenshot attached). But when I do go through the list of things running, the right hand side it tells you how much RAM is supposedly being used. Yet if I total up all of the RAM being used by all of the apps that are apparently running, it only comes to about 300MB. So where the heck is this other 450MB of RAM being used?! THIS is what is slowing down my phone, I think.
Not only that, but there are things in this list that are running that shouldn't be running, & I don't understand why they are. Facebook, sure I can understand, in case you get a notification or something. But TuneIn Radio... I'm not listening to the radio at the moment, nor have I used the app in weeks (and my phone has been restarted numerous times since then), why is it running? S Voice, too? Video Hub? Google Play Music, I've never even used it. And then there's loads of things I haven't got a clue what they are, like Exchange Services, ELM Agent, SmartcardService, etc. Now I understand it's like a computer, where there are a number of background processes that have to run to make the OS work, but why are all these other apps running that I'm not using?!
-------------------------
Furthermore, I've started trying to use Google Now because I would like to get a Moto 360 (but I'll ask questions about that in a seperate thread). So, it seemed to work fine a few weeks ago. It gave me stocks, news updates, ETA to work or home, started remembering where I was parking. But now a few days ago I go back to it, after not using it for a little while, & it's all reset; Asking me to set it up again. So I did, & it mostly works but I can only ever seem to get the first "page" of cards up. When I click "More" at the bottom I just get an endless spinning circle & then the message "No Internet Connection - Content was last updated X minutes ago" appears as the top card, when infact I know I do have an internet connection. Exiting the app, closing it down, & then re-opening does not fix the issue either. I'm at a complete loss as to what to do.
Furthermore, it always asks me to "Improve my location: For more accurate location, let google search for Wi-Fi connections, even when Wi-Fi is off." I don't understand how this works, and what it's trying to do? If I turn it on, is that not going to be effectively the same as leaving my WiFi turned on at all times? Well, except without the benefits of being connected via WiFi. It's just going to drain my battery more, as leaving WiFi on usually does.
-------------------------
So tldr:
- Why is my RAM mysteriously using 450MB that I can't vouch for? Where is it going? How I stop it?
- Why is Google Now not letting my manually update the cards?
You are missing huge amounts of very basic information, search and read for what is safe to disable on stock rom, some things are vital others are optional.
If you leave everything running as default then 6hrs battery life is about right.

Problems, issues, annoyances & bugs thread

Hello while I really love this phone it's got a few annoyances. I created this thread to see if I'm the only one and if anyone else reports any more.
Frequent FC of the Google and Google photos app
Random things happening if phone is not restarted frequently (eg all sound went quiet until restart)
Keyboard skin doesn't change for lock screen
Let me know if your having these issues or if you have any not listed.
Bugs I've had so far:
- one reboot while using snapchat
- sometimes it takes a lot of time for the device to wake up
- autobrightness is terrible in low light conditions(stuttering and inconsistence)
- while streaming audio with bluetooth in my car the radio somtimes shows audio paused while it's still playing. In this case remote controls also stop working
My xperience
I only had the phone for four days, because I found a dead pixel on my screen. I am currently expecting a replacement or a refund. During that time I noticed that changing the theme does not change anything else besides the home and lock screens. There were some random drops in wi-fi connection. I also noticed a couple of stutters here and there. Two or three apps crashed on exit. I also miss the picture album widget with the swiping pictures on screen. That is not present here.
So no one seems to be getting any issues like me ?

Agree about the autobrightness, it's inconsistent and keeps changing in low light conditions. Makes reading an absolute chore.
I'd also love a way to quick enable glove mode, my previous Samsung had that in the drawer menu.
for those of you who have owned sony phones, has there been timely updates to fix bugs like the ones being reported in this thread? some companies like to release updates with new features but without fixing bugs so im just making sure before i pull the trigger on an XZ1
thank you all!
I've had this issue after the recent update to build 47.1.A.2.324 . Google assistant doesnt work with Music ( default sony music app) . it used to work before this update, and it doesnt work anymore and asks me to set google music as the default music service.
WiFi signal drops when I hold my hand on the backside.
1. The phone seems to reboot itself frequently.
2. Sometimes no sound when alarm is going off. I overslept once because of this
3. Quite often no sound when phone is ringing. Need to reboot the phone for it to act normal again.
4. Crashing when picking up phone. Call goes to call waiting and phone rings again. When picking up there is a very loud biping sound throughout the conversation. This goes away when rebooting.

Oh god, i was going to change to the XZ1 this week after returning my Compact due to the rebooting, I thought they'd be different enough internals to not have the same issue. I guess its a Sony/Oreo issue then.
a freeze occourred waking up the phone from camera button. The camera button was set to "open and shot"
I had to reboot via vol+ and power...
Updated to 47.1.A.2.374 yesterday, sadly all bugs remain the same. And I can add one; the smart lock menu is empty and all smart lock function dont work anymore

1. The phone seems to reboot itself frequently.
2. Sometimes no sound when alarm is going off. I overslept once because of this
3. Quite often no sound when phone is ringing. Need to reboot the phone for it to act normal again.
4. Crashing when picking up phone. Call goes to call waiting and phone rings again. When picking up there is a very loud biping sound throughout the conversation. This goes away when rebooting.

Similar problems here even on the latest build 47.1.A.2.374. Also Google assistant frequently stops responding and then the phone becomes unresponsive and eventually restarts without prompting. Never had problems like this on the XZ when that was released. Seems to be some issues with Google services on this Sony hardware. Suggest everyone having issues pound the send feedback option and hope that someone in Google or Sony are listening!
My notification tones keep going off at random intervals and nothing's in the status bar that could've set it off.
Can confirm random reboots.
Bought the phone from clove and Amazon.
Amazon was horrendous reboots during setting the phone up - returned.
The clove one had no reboots until today, several times.
Some fkd up kernal CPU bogusness going on here.
Sony need to sort this.
I'll check with matlog tomorrow if anything stands out
