hi!
i tried to ask on the main topic, but no real answers.
the problem is, uhm, that my tablet crashes.
once, twice a day. no matter what application i'm using...it freezes and i must turn it off and on again. it remains still with a black and white screen, on grey sometimes, no icons or images on it.
sometimes it crashes and starts vibrating like the aptic feedback until i turn it off.
other times my apps just close and tablet still responds.
oher times i experiment lag, or icons disappear fron the desktop.
other disappointing thing is the youtube search menu and keyboard flashing and vanishing, but only in the first screen with the 3d menu.
i tried doing a hard reset...then disactivating native apps....then installing app one by one to see which one is incriminated...none of it worked.
it crashes totally randomly.
1.044 WW etc etc is the firmware version
my question is:
did you experience the same thing...it's the a510, the firmware, acer, tegra 3..anything you want to say OR...it's my tablet that is faulty?
i'm going mad with this damn stupid tablet.
i previously had an ipad, and never figured android could ever be such a pain in the ass.
if it's android, i think i'll go back to ios.

It's not "Android's" fault. Your device may be faulty. Have you tried relashing your rom?
i didn't do anything to firmware.
just reset, without any result.

Try reflashing.
sent it to acer for repair...they sent me a new one as replacement.
well...it freezes the same sometimes..and must force reboot.
by power button.
my firmware is av041 1044.00 ww_gen1
maybe it's software issue as it's been replaced.
my specific apps i installed...don't know.
quite disappointing
this tab is draining my life..
can't study with fear of a freeze or crash every single instant i use it.
i'm the only one who experiences this freezes...on 2 different tablets???

hey guys,
i have a rooted galaxy s 2 and for several weeks now, it has been lagging a lot.. for example:
i'll type something... the screen will freeze, then after a few seconds, the letters show up in a flurry or..i'll swipe the screen, but it won't move, then it'll slowly transition to the next screen... or i'll type a text... hit 'send'... and it won't show up in the message thread for a few seconds...
you get the gist.
the kernel is: [email protected]#2
any idea on how i can get the speed back to normal? i tried deleting a bunch of apps and that didn't work (i didn't have very many to begin with) and i still have roughly 5 gb left on the internal SD. it has gotten to the point where using my phone is becoming a nuisance - it lags sooo much.
thanks in advance.
shouldnt be laggin at all but a few things.
1-check for rogue apps
2-try a different kernel/rom ( i prefer speedmod/criskelo myself)
oh, you might want to do a factory reset as well. However, this device shouldnt be laggin at all with any kernel

Try to remove all the widgets that keep changing their data every second like google reader widget from your home screen if that doesnt work go for factory reset in setting >privacy. Make a backup if possible but i would recommend to it the manual way since it will help you find the culprit much easily, install apps one by one and see what is causing the problem.
Also try a different keyboard, like slideIT or better keyboard.
Or go back to stock one if you are using a non stock keyboard
i tried doing the factory reset, and it seems to have made a slight difference, but there is definitely still a lag. and i've also tried the stock keyboard, swype and swift key- same results. i'm starting to think it might just be a hardware thing. yay for cellphone insurance.
Looks great so far. The Home launcher is much more responsive so I can do away with ADW EX for now.
Kind of wish there were more small apps, but browser, calculator and IR remote are great choices for those and they work terrifically.
What do you guys think so far?

When is 4.0.4 coming!!! :-D, so far so good on my end, seems more responsive. WIFI seems to stay on and work a lot better.
Upgraded to ics and my play store keeps crashing. Tried clearing cache and data, then it runs for about 5 min and crashes again...anyone else having similar issues?

Uninstall from settings and go in as market... That fixed it for me...
The tablet was initially very laggy after the update but a reboot seemed to fix things, with the exception of the notification menu. It stutters very noticeably and is extremely annoying. Many apps also don't rotate properly anymore.
Still better than Honeycomb despiute those drawbacks.

DAMN YOU SONY!!!
Things i hate:
- this annoying wifi keepalive issue is still there!!! there is no way to keep wifi active during standby -.- damned why don't they let us users the choice... there IS an option to set the standby behavior but its still completely useless....
- sometimes there are widget issues (doesn't matter if 3rd party or preinstalled) that widgets change into editor mode when just pressing a button like update... changing screen ang going back will fix this temporarily... had this 2 times now...
- auto brigtness issue still not resolved... in low light the screen is MUCH too dark and when changing from full brightess to automatic it keeps full for a while and then goes down to min
- homescreen lag is still too much in portrait
- forced portrait is still not changable (damn i'm righthanded and want to hold it on the ROUND side when portrait is forced!!!!)
- the new ICS launcher... Sonys previous own launcher had a better overview with the sorting possibilities but ok we can have folders now...
- still no thumb keyboard -.-
things i like:
- media from SD card is now directly available and nut just for transfer... finally i have enough memory also without root and mounting stuff ^^
- the new mini-apps are nice but there is still much potential for more apps
- the new version of "Favorites" App is very nice animated and faster
- ICS possibility to deactivate system apps that are not removable... finally i get this google music player away
- a few other ICS related things...
ALL IN ALL this update is a big disappointement... they updated to ICS, integrated one or thwo new features and that's it??? all the big issues are still there since more than six months!!!!!
I have personally had a fantastic experience with the ICS update. Everything seems faster across the board. Menus more responsive, faster browser, better keyboard response/feedback. I also like the ICS look and feel and the mini apps. Really happy with the update so far.
I used to be able to DL directly to my SD Card, and using ES File Manager to move files around. Now it refuses to do so. Anyone else having this issue? If not, what file manager are you using?
My tablet seems to have gone really slow after the ICS update.
I tried a factory restore to ensure that I didnt have too many things installed and decided to start afresh. Didnt help. The tablet is still very slow. While the touch is responsive and I like the features of ICS like slide to dismiss, reading files directly from SD card etc, I definitely donot like the amount of lag I am noticing.
All my apps seem to be really really slow.
My Honeycomb seemed to be far more faster irrespective of all the issues that it had.
Any suggestions anyone?? I am on non rooted US version 16Gb Wifi.

Have you tried going into Settings > Developer Options and tick "Force GPU rendering"?
I'm thinking of buying the sony tablet s. I've read on various reviews that this tablet's battery life is not that impressive (Honeycomb0, is that true? And btw how is the battery life after the ics update? Is there any improvement?
someone can connect tablet with PC on MTP usb
i tried many times but i couldn't
ics update
i havent played around much since the update but the little time i did spend with my tab i found it more responsive and smoother.... i am liking the ics update... dont know why others having issues but i think we should give it a couple of days so that all issues are ironed out....

On the first time, it took a while to show up as windows tried to reinstall the drivers for the tablet. Maybe you should keep it connected on USB and wait for a while and see if it shows up?

i'm steel keeping connection but nothing happened
should i try to reinstall drivers forcibly?
I don't understand the problems with wifi-keep-alive.There a apps in the playstore to force this. It worked well for me in Honeycomb.
Same with a thumb-keyboard.

The problem with that app from the market is that it keeps the device awake when you turn off the screen, and it eats through the battery.
On the Android phones I've used (Legend, Desire, Arc S), the WiFi remained connected, but the phone also went to sleep, battery drain was minimal.
This is the behaviour we were expecting to see in the ICS update, but unfortunately it hasn't been fixed...
Hey, i have a 3g tablet, because that i have to wait for upgrading.
But i have an important question for hifi guys: What is with the IR-Remote app...
Are there any changes to the App on Honeycomb?
I bought the tablet for controlling my homecinema an know i want to know if we get makros in the IR-Remote app?
pls check it and give a response to me
Hello friends, sorry I'm a big noob and dont know anything, I have a toshiba folio 100, recently purchased, and I managed to install the ICS 4, the latest version that is a tutorial on this same site, and is working well and is spectacular , but it happens to me that in some applications like GMAIL, Ice Age, the screen is shaking and I have to shut down the application, someone can help me change the screen resolution, so that does not happen again.
Thanks to All
I don't exactly understand the problem. Do the applications crash?
What do you mean when you say "the screen is shaking"? Maybe you're talking about the known bug when coming back from suspend?
Hi my friend,
Thank you for your feedback.
Yes, it is exactly what I mean, the screen shacke, but it already happened in all the situation before and after being suspended.
Do you have any idea about what I can do to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.
With the stock rom, did you had the same problem? I'm running it with foliomod and the thing that you described never happened to me.
It's a known bug of the Alpha 5 release, resuming after suspend brings screen to that bad behaviour. Only workaround is to power-off the tablet instead of letting it suspend or suspending by power button. This is the only major bug of ICS on Folio (apart from the lack of bluetooth), I'm totally satisfied of how ICS is running on it, everything runs smooth, I'll never revert to any other 2.x rom, once you test ICS interface it's really hard to use phone like interfaces on a 10" tablet
I may be wrong, but the screen stops flickering after some seconds.

Yes it's stops. But after sleep,suspend its better to reboot, because it crashes.
I just try to avoid suspend/sleep mode and turn it off/on instead. Hope this issue gets fixed
Browsers
Using CM9 A5 ROM. Some browsers Opera, Dolphin, Stock and Boat crashes when surfing the internet. I noticed that Opera usually not crash but folio gets SOD when writhing something. Boat and Dolphin crashes when loading site or scrolling page content fast. I don't have idea how fix this. It's not happening very often but in half hour it can be even 2 times. Any solutions?
P.S: I use original boot.img with no overlocked CPU.
New to this forum and seeking some help(obviously)
Had this phone for about 3 weeks now and I love it. I just have one problem with it.
In the stock messaging app, Kik, and a couple of other apps, my keyboard will occasionally freeze. Android keyboard, LG keyboard, Swype... They all do it.
But I can still type on it, it just won't show me a "live-shot" of what I'm typing. When I press the back button(hides keyboard), all the text that I typed would show up. For example, if I type/swype "I like cake", it won't show anything in the text field until I hide/exit out of the keyboard. Then it all the text shows up at once.
I've tried everything I know of. I've done a factory reset on the phone, I've disabled keyboards, I've uninstalled apps. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! This isn't a huge pain because a restart temporarily fixes it, and this phone only takes like 45 seconds to reboot. It's just annoying since it happens several times a day.

Never happened to me....Are you stock, rooted, unlocked....if so what ROM/kernel are you running. It helps when you post as much information as possible so we might be able to determine if its something we can help with. That happened to me on my old Infuse ALOT, but i was flashing multiple ROM a day just playing around....

this is strange I have had no issues regarding this whether I was stock or otherwise. If you got it from best buy take it back and get another, I have gone through 3 LGOG until I found one that didnt have strange issues. But I also got mine early. Maybe some of the senior members have had this issue. Good Luck
Thanks for the replies. I'm not rooted and I've installed all the updates they've sent out so far. I've looked online and I haven't been able to find anyone else with this problem...
I got it from AT&T(They matched Best Buy's price for me!) and I have to go there in about a week to get a credit on my bill, so I'll just ask them to try to figure out what's going on.

Swap that out when you go. Good luck !
I fixed it. Apparently one of the few apps that I did not uninstall was causing the problem. Tesla LED(Flashlight app) was causing the keyboard to freeze. I have no idea why... That app has nothing to do with the keyboard. But I uninstalled it, installed another flashlight app and haven't had a problem since Tuesday night.

Hahaha, no problem, man! I installed Tiny Flashlight + LED and added the widget to my home screen. So now all I need to do is tap the widget and the flashlight turns on.
Ya, so I havent downloaded any flashlight app, yet fairly frequently, in messaging, web browsing, and the like, my keyboard stops displaying input (sometimes even gestures in web browsing, such as swiping to move around the screen freeze too). The words and other things i change, such as where in a web page it is focused does take effect after hitting the menu key on the phone. Typing also seems to work regularly in landscape, but im not used to turning it every time i type and id rather not get used to it. It happens with the Android keyboard as well as the LG one, and might be related to the similiar freezing the google voice and swype brought, but im fairly positive i completely uninstalled those, so idk...

Hey guys I just notice this as well fresh from the att store, although I've only seen it only once. So I'm 100% sure it's not due to rooting/bootloader unlocked. My suspicion is some sort of memory leak in the LG keyboard service (it's loaded as well even though you're using android OS). I clear both keyboard data and reboot, never happened anymore since then.

What exactly do you mean?
I know there has been a few threads about this but I kind of know the reason to my problem but I'd like it resolved.
It's caused by an application from the GO Launcher EX people, Go Battery & Power Widget.
So, I know this is APP specific but I'm figuring that it's also phone specific as I don't see anyone else having this problem in specific with it in the past few months or updates. Last was march.
It worked just fine up until yesterday when it started freezing the phone with the screen on and the plastic LED thing underneath the menu buttons on my Xperia U, if it doesn't freeze it randomly reboots whenever it feels like it and I'm quite positive this will in the long run harm my battery, I might just be paranoid but I think that it has affected or overloaded a few of the LEDs inside of the screen I can now find 3 dead pixels, I know that ain't much but it's kind of annoying as you may guess.
So, anyone know what I could do to solve this issue without removing the program or if it's a compatibility issue with something else, any help at all would be swell - I would remove it if it were not for the fact that when it did work that it saved my battery quite dramatically.
Thanks in advance and thanks for reading my wall of text.

I just recently re-flashed my phone due to an annoying "update available" issue that wasn't removable, forcing me to create a backup, which I just now restored into the phone (It doesn't appear to be there now but the issue persist so now I'm confused as to what might be causing it)
Once again, I'd really like this resolved rather than factory reseting the phone and then start to re-fill it again.
Not quite counting the freezes and reboots, but it's well over 50 just today.
Hmm as u said that the problem existed even without go launcher so try logging when the screen freezes... We might see the problem there... Anyways I know you said you don't want to factory reset and stuff... But 50 above is harmful so I think flashing stock is a good idea
Cheers,
AJ
Have you tried removing the app itself to see that it stops freezes?
If so, then it is clear the app causes the problems. Then you should contact the developers of it, they shall have an email on google play.
If not, then I suggest you to go for a logcat and try to figure out what is the cause Sounds really weird and a stock reflash (without restore) seems to be the solution for me

I decided to re-flash it, went well and it's feeling healthier.
The problem was Xprivacy.

I had some freezing issues even without it, but I mucked about and re-flashed and now it feels better, but I'm still sure it was Xprivacy. Don't know why though.
