Hey been having a issue for awhile now on my HD2 with the built in youtube. I mean it searches just fine, but when I try to watch the video and connect, it just stays stuck at "Connecting". Now if I load up in IE and watch it whille its embedded in the browser it works fine. But getting a lil annoying now that I cant watch using the app.
I do use Energy Rom and love it, also if I boot into Android mode, the youtube app works fine, Just seems in Windows mode, the youtube stopped working. Oddly it stopped working on my G1 too. Anyone have some ideas?
Personally I don't have issue's with YouTube; but way not asking on the NRG thread?

Cause I dont know 100% if its a NRG rom issue or something else. Reason I say this is, cause Ive had this issue for awhile, and even after rom updates, still something is up. Rarely does it work right, so I dont know what the issue might be.

Don't know what cause your problems. But one question do you have install/use Microsoft Voice commander? I know that this caused problems with the latest YouTube build.
I don't know if you have done/try this already, button do a hard reset or a new install and try than again YouTube before you install a customization/application.
Well when I update the rom, I hard reset. Like I said, it sometimes works, other times it stays on connecting. Makes no sense that it works embedded in a browser tho.
A lot of times when I'm listening to music and the screen is off, the music stops playing. Pressing the headset button does not resume the music, I have to turn on the screen and press the play button.
I had this problem on KE7 as well as I have it on KF2, my phone is rooted, currently I use PowerAMP, but if I can remember correctly, I've encountered the issue using Doubletwist as well. I even tried hard resetting, but the issue persists (I didn't really start from scratch but rather restored my user apps from a Titanium Backup).
Before I go through the tiresome task of uninstalling all the apps and installing them back one by one, I decided to ask for your help. Maybe somebody already managed to resolve a similar issue...
Settings> Motion> disable it... It may be because of the motion sensors... If you tilt the phone in a certain angle, the music stops playing...Just try, if it didn't work, then there is a problem...
This seemed to be happening to me when using PlayerPro. However, I had the trial and paid for versions installed, and it seemed to be the trial version doing this. Switching to the paid for version stopped the issue.
Could PowerAmp be behaving the same?

I have bought the full version, so it can't be this. The motion theory is interesting, but the phone was sitting on my desk when it happened today. Will try disabling it anyway.
Setting motion control to off did not help either. ;(

Hey man, im experiencing the same problem.
Glad to hear im not the only one. Ill be following this thread for answers. Im using PowerAmp as well.
Well, nice to hear I'm not alone.
I will try using doubletwist for a day or two, to see if it's a PowerAmp thing. But if memory serves me well, I already expirienced the same issue before buying PowerAMP.

Just came across this thread:
http://powerampapp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1274
Interestingly somebody mentions Google Listen as the culprit. I do use it a lot. Will try removing it and report back. BTW: Pocket Casts is free today on Amazon Appstore!
Freezing Google Listen defenitely helps.
I'm having the same problem, both with the stock player, and BBC iPlayer.
I'm also using Google Listen... so it'll be a shame if it's that which causes the problem.
I've just checked my Listen settings: it's set to check for new updates once a day, but I've had the players stop more than once in one day. I also had 'send anon feedback' switched on. I've turned that off.
I'd really like to hear if it's the confirmed culprit (and how to remove or freeze it) - cheers
I've also heard the problem could be when the phone is switching between 2G and 3G mode: as I'm in a basement office, I have poor signal quality, so there's a chance that's to blame...?
Well I use Google listen on my nexus one for a year now, and it never shows up in my apps list using battery, nor does it ever appear in system panel lust using no CPU. Its been just fine.
I've found the music is stopping when I get Gmail messages (though not every time)... so it's one of my Gamil widgets, the Status bar (though I have notifications turned off) or the Social Hub.
Once I've backed up all my data I'm going to do a Factory Reset
Update:
I've done a factory reset, that didn't stop it.
I've removed the Gmail widget, that didn't stop it.
I've gotten a brand new replacement phone, that didn't stop it.
I've tried a different music player (UberMusic), that didn't stop it.
Anyone got any more ideas?

I think i managed to solve the issue, I uninstsalled DSP manager through TB
So I have a Droid X2, now un-rooted and back on stock 2.3.4 and this is an issue I have had since I had the phone and have never found a fix. I have asked this multiple times on the Verizon forum for the DX and never get an answer...
SO every day I seem to have issues with my notifications going mute, sometimes, but not always, my ringer even goes mute. Usually once a day I have to reboot my phone because it is the only way I can fix it. I thought at first it had to do with my blutooth, but since SBFing and going back to stock I have not re-added my blutooth and it still happens. I took it into the store and he suggested that it is an app causing a conflict and I should uninstall 10 or so apps at a time to try and narrow it down... but I just went ahead and did a factory restore to see if it would help... but it happened again today...
Now, the notifications I use are ones I put on the phone. I have tried putting them on the SD and the internal and it seems to happen with both. I have also put them directly on and also tried ringdroid but it still does the same thing. The sound and notification levels will be all the way up, and when you go into the settings and try to pick a notification sound or ringtone, even the stock ones, you wont hear anything (and you would usually hear a preview of the sound)... The only way I can get the sounds to work is to reboot the phone and when it comes back, it will be fine... for a while. Sometimes have to reboot multiple times a day, but almost always at least once a day to get them back up...
Since you all seem smarter than the Verizon folks and have been a huge help to me thus far, I thought I would ask here and see if anyone else has ran into this and has a fix or if there are any known apps that would cause this. I have done searches but found nothing...

I have the same issue of notification sounds going mute randomly. I'm using galaxy tab P1000, android 2.3.3
sometimes music player stops playing songs randomly too!

No rom. I was rooted but un-rooted and went back to stock gingerbread...
I upgraded to android 2.3.6 overcome 4.1.0 (its a custum rom for galaxy tab). Lets see if it resolves the issue. I'll report back if the problem happened again.

Awesome... thank you!
I've had a similar issue but not exactly the same. I normally keep my phone on silent mode but sometimes during the day it will automatically go off silent mode. Seems to happen most often when the battery level is below half. I just learned to live with it. My alarm would deactivate by itself in Froyo, so at least this isn't going to cause me to be late for work like that.
Problem is solved here after last week's upgrade. I'd suggest flashing a new build if possible. I guess for some unknow reason, parts of the OS gets corrupted or maybe its a bug in device drivers for our android phones thats been addressed in later builds.

I'm certainly no dev, just an avid user who likes learning and tweaking to get the most from his phone. I recall having similar problems with FROYO stock or rooted which as I remember went away when GINGERBREAD came out. I've been running DZK's CM7 beta as my daily driver since it was released with virtually no problems and unlike most other ROM's does not need multiple tweaks and scripts to scream with the exception of a wifi and/or dialer glitch that looks like Moonshadow has recently fixed. Sooooo unless HDMI is a deal breaker I'd suggest you flash CM7 and see if that takes care of your problems just remember to abide by the cautions regarding use of TBU to restore apps. And lastly as a rule of thumb I reboot my phone every morning once I get to 100% charge...force of habit I guess.
Good luck

Thanks everyone... I havent been on because it strangely hasn't been happening. Not sure what changed. Did not uninstall any apps, and have not had any updates (as far as I know... well besides app updates) and for some reason it hasnt been happening lately. Again, no idea what changed. Still unrooted on stock 2.3.4 gingerbread and phone seems fine now. Been happening for months and when I finally come here to get help, the problem seemed to have went away. I will keep you all updated if this changes. Hopefully if it is happening to anyone else, it has also been fixed... Thanks again for all your help. Really appreciate you guys helping out this noob
what i did
i have an mb870 too with no service running google voice and groove ip . my issue with notifications
was with my kids hitting all the button selections she could. in the process my message notifications
got defaulted to the wrong messaging app. i was still getting messages but no tones or vibrations.
so i just went to all the messaging apps i have and made sure to select the right one for the default
hope this helps
I've searched until I'm blue in the face on this and am sorry if i've missed it somewhere, but with any version of ShoStock2 ICS (including the newest 2.2.2) I can't get exchange to show emails newer than 3 weeks ago. Older one's show up fine. Also I can send emails and they will come through on the PC, but never on the phone. I've flashed back to ShoStock 1.9.4 gingerbread, and exchange works flawlessly. I have tried connecting on wifi and over the air, both with the same results. I would very much appreciate any insight you all might have.
Edit: Forgot to mention, exchange works fine on AOKP and Phone-Bricker ICS roms.
No one has any thoughts or help on this?
Hi,
I've installed everything yesterday night. Everything including the exchange servers are working fine on my end. Could it be your setting by any chance?
I didn't use any other kernel, I used cherrypicker.
Exchange seems to be working fine at this end.
Running 2.2.2 and using exchange, no issues here. No to be a smart arse but you did wipe first right?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
I always wipe data, cache, and dalvik twice before flashing a new ROM (thanks to the advice of the great group of people on XDA forums), and this is the only one that I've had any issue getting exchange to play nice with. It sets up fine and syncs all of my emails except newer than 3 weeks ago. I've ran at least 10 different ROM's including two other ICS versions with no issue on this. I've tried 4 different ShoStock2 ICS versions beginning all the way back to the the RC1 release, all with this same result. I've tried using different kernels with different releases, removing and resetting the exchange acount, rebooting, connecting on wifi and HSPA+, swapped the email apk, held my breath and stood on my head. Something is missing somewhere, but I'll be damned if I can find it.
Just to be certain that the problem still exists, I downloaded AOKP and ShoStock2 latest versions last night to try this again. I wiped everything twice prior to flashing and got the same results. Exchange loads every email from today-on with AOKP, but none newer that 3 weeks on ShoStock2. I hate to keep beating a dead horse, but surely someone else has some thought on this. The only thing I have not tried is running a kernel cleaning script. Does anyone think this might help?
The reason why I removed email/exchange apk from my rom was this exactly.
No idea why, but if included with the rom it will just causes problems so I added it as an addon in the kitchen.
I would clear cache/force stop both apps, remove them, then install them again by just grabbing them from the zip file.

Thanks for that reply! At least someone knows I'm not crazy. (I was starting to think I was). I actually ran your ROM a few releases ago, before kitchen was in it and it was pretty smooth. I may have to give it another go. Thanks again for the reply my friend!
Problem solved.
Well, I solved the problem (sort of). I said to hell with fighting to get the exchange working on ShoStock2, and installed LiLChris06's Phone-Bricker 2.5 ROM. This thing is freaking sweet and exchange works like a champ. I've been running this ROM hard now for about two hours with no force-closes, no lag, and the battery seems to be holding up incredibly.
Thanks LiLChris06!!!
Just FYI as i ran into similar problems with OMEGA and SHOStock2 roms, a single exhchange account seemed to run fine, but when i started adding the rest, i had similar issues with it not syncing new mail, and randomly NOT CONNECT to the exchange server in question. everything would setup fine, but eventually the exchange servers would just not update anymore after a couple hours.
if i went into the accounts/sync option in settings, then it would say it synced and would even give a current time, but would never display any new mail. if i went to "refresh" from within the mail app, the account would try to refresh, give an old date of the last refresh and then give the error: "connection error [exchange server name]"
i have not yet tried LilChris's option though, will try that once i get some extra time.

Are you saying that if you included it with the ROM it wouldn't work but if you installed it after the ROM was installed it would work fine?

Yea sounds crazy but that's how it worked for many others.
In the early releases when I included I got complaints left and right, when I added it as an addon it worked flawless for everyone.
i can attest to that (so far)..
i would get exchange issues within 1 hour almost certainly..
its been almost a full 20 hours now and i havent had a single exchange hiccup yet.
one thing that might be worth noting also, i think the app is different that LiLChris uses vs what some of the other devs are using.
i have exchange 2003, 2007, 2010 servers that i connect to..
the options for connecting to 2003 and 2010 (as well as 2007) are the same in the email app that LiLChris uses, such as syncing mail, contacts, calendar (only). 2007 allows syncing of tasks, and i know 2010 allows syncing of tasks and sms, which the email app should detect.
i dont sync tasks or sms, so not a big deal to me, but i did wonder if the actual email apps were different, or different versions, or maybe one was just modded? *shrugs*.
I have only tested this on the CM9 nightlies, so if you decide to try it on anything else, make a backup beforehand and report if it works for you.
Do you want Google Now on your HP Touchpad? Of course you do. I have been following this thread for a while waiting to get Google Now on my ICS phone.

XDA member cajunflavoredbob has been keeping a post updated with the latest flashable zips. So keep checking back for the latest one here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29756226&postcount=2856
I have used these files on my phone and got Google Now working for me. I decided to try the same thing on my TouchPad and it is still a bit buggy but worked pretty well. Voice search and talk back all worked (still buggy though). Just flash in CWR. I dont know if there is any easy way of removing it. So make a backup of your ROM just in case you want to revert back.
I started from a fresh flash of CM9's most recent nightly and then flashed Google Now v6.zip. I was able to get Now working a few times for searches but since have received the "double take" bug that does not automatically set a time reminder etc. After a couple attempts, pressing the MIC button shows an "initializing" screen and does not function.
I've read through his post several times over looking for a fix via permissions, disabling voice actions, etc, but have not been able to get it working 100%. What is your status with it on your TP?

I think we're on the same page. When it works, it works well. But it still has small bugs. Pressing on the mic in the search bar seems to work better. But at least every feature is there now. A step closer.
Yeah, I'll keep my eye on that thread. I switched around a couple of the updated velvet.apks since there were a few floating around, stated as working, to no avail but I will continue to test fixes. Any bets on whether his Google Now fix or a stable CM10 for the TP is released first?
OP updated with link to latest files.
I'm using reeko's zip, it fails on first try about half the time but when i retry it works pretty much always, if not i retry again lol
I did install the google voice search from app store after flashing the zip. I set the mic to go to this voice search, and pressing the word google brings up google now. So I have one that always works, and one that kind of almost always works.
I'm using the online only version of the zip, I don't know if the offline would need to initialize to google server or if it would work without failing
I havent even tried the offline version. But it sounds like they have similar issues. When you say you retry, do you hit the mic icon or the actual word "Retry"?
either one, or both
i just tested it, it works with doing either, it really is hit or miss it seems. around 15-20% success rate sometimes. I mean I hit retry/mic (depending on how bored i am) and I can do this around 10 times before getting it to work once. Then other times I can get it to work 3-4 times in a row before failing again
edit: from what I can tell (or what it looks like to me) hitting retry, retries in the app. hitting mic relaunches app? i say this since i see it kind of jump, like the entire app relaunched quickly. So my take is if this launch didnt work, i hit mic to relaunch it and hope this time is a bit better

I kinda have a feeling one of the older files worked better.
If you get bored, try this file out. This was the first one I came across but havent gotten around to flashing it back to see if it was better.
https://www.box.com/s/78f4efb985d94487d5d5
I am also hitting about 10%. Whether or not I hit mic or reset. I play with the settings, changing language and what not and it seems to reset it. But still hit and miss...
Same. Im running CM9 nightly 8/07, tested flashing every G Voice rom and the same error occurred with each one. I came across a post saying G Now only worked with a specific ICS rom, but I cannot find that particular post anymore nor a post on the main thread with a CM9 TP confirming G Now is working.
I'm also having problems getting G Now to work properly on the HP Touchpad with the latest nightly build.
Only thing that is buggy which today for me stopped working altogether is the voice search.
Anyone figure out how to fix this yet?
I'm not a developer but shouldn't it be possible to get G Now working for CM9? Since it is running ICS.
It would be awesome to get Voice working.
