I've searched and searched and it's beginning to seem like I'm the only person suffering from this particular problem. Every since I upgraded to ICS (I'm running stock Android 4.0.3) animated gifs no longer work in Google Reader. They work fine in my web browser, but in Reader I just get still images. Occasionally, I will get a couple frames and then it will freeze. Sometimes the entire gif will play fine until I touch the screen to scroll. Anyone out there have any clue what could be wrong, or what I can do to fix this?
Can you pinch zoom? I find that gifs on my Rezound stop every so often until I resize them.

You are not alone. I'm having the same problem. The gifs play fine if I click on an individual post, but once I swipe to the next post all subsequent gifs don't play. Strangely, the originally clicked post will still play if I swipe back to it..
I'm running ICS on an SGS3 with Omega ROM v9.0

my first thread. just received viewsonic gtab. charged it turned it on and there was no option to update to 3588.i tried to update it but says system is up to date.. current version is 3389. when i connected to my pc i noticed on the root there was already a recovery and a update zip. file..also angry birds did not work out of the box it would just go to an empty screen. downloaded new one and works fine.somehow i also lost the stock video and pictures that it came with. i hate to go through the trouble of sending it back.. oh cnn videos work a little sluggish though. any thoughts thanks i do plan to add new rom but i got to figure problems first.. i am not very good and tech stuff. hope this makes sense. oh also there is a white spec that seems embedded under the screen protector,not visible when tab is on but bears another mystery.seems like this may have been pre owned. thanks hope to hear your guys opinion. cheers
At this point you might as well follow the instructions to put a rom on it. I didn't update mine but I just put clockworks on it and a rom. Yours sounds messed up already. Worst case you have to send it back.

I have a related questtion. I flashed vegan and did all the fixes, but I still have a small problem. Youtube app works fine, as do youtube videos when I surf there on my browser. However, YouTube videos embedded on other pages do not work (some gibberish code appears instead). Any clues?

Sorry about the double post, but I need some help figuring this out. My inability to play YouTube videos embedded in web pages only happens in dolphin HD (best browser IMO) but not on opera. Do I need some kind of a plugin? Or is there any other fix? Thanks in advance.
Let me start by saying, i'm running stock untouched, unrooted, i turned it on and installed apps from the market, version of Gt10.1. It is the 32Gb version and came with 3.1 on it.
I've had my Gt10.1 for almost a week now and I must say that I'm stunned at the frequency of FC errors from various apps. I mean even my "Samsung Account" force closes after each restart.
Anyone else noticed that the screen isn't calibrated correctly. Seems I have to touch to the right of what I intend to select. This is particularly noticeable when selecting text in the browser or in text editors such as this app.
Should I reset to factory?
A lot of apps that work just find on my Epic4G are unstable or not available ... like where is facebook???? And how come nearly every game is either buggy or not available... EA games are just unsupported?
Is there a place anywhere that filters the marketplace by supported os version ? I.e. what is proven to work on HC 3.1

Facebook has been pulled from the tablet market for a while.
The samsung force close is on every tablet I think after reboot
I'd try resetting and see if that helps with the force closes and the screen inaccuracy. Maybe try not loading every app you had before. If that doesn't work, take it back to where you bought it and see if you can get an exchange.
Yeah its disgracefull that samsung have released the tab with so many bugs. Im writing this now on my tab and the text cant even keep up with my typing...the whole gt 10.1 is an unpleasant experience, the amount of force closes is staggering and unaceptable. theres no filterin the market to show only tab apps, it gives off a high pitch noise after every selection from the speakers, theres no predictive text input, the video play back its utter crap,why dont the home buttons auto hide to give more screen space, reading books is awfull due to each page being out of focus for a split second before being displayed properly. Theres people with dust under the screen, oh and the batteru life is in my opinion well below stated. and last but definately not least yeah it does flash in websites but not 100% some sites work and some are awfull,,,,

I feel for u. I've resolved the laggy keyboard by sticking with either the Android keyboard or Thumb keyboard. Both perform excellently. My experience has been that hidden home buttons seem to be a per app behavior. Example. Kindle app does it beautifully. I also have not experienced the out of focus issue. The video / screen rendering is unparalleled. Ive only experienced poor battery stats when I'm streaming from a weak wifi connection.. like being tethered to my phone running 3g 3bars or less.

-There is a problem with the way the stock browser handles text selection in web fields, it's probably related to some of the JavaScript problems the browser has. Until it gets patched a workaround is to use the Opera web browser.
-There are a few lists that people have compiled of HC optimized apps and games: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032381
@richie_jones:
-Turn off audible selection under settings>sound
-The default Samsung keyboard has XT9 predictive text, but you have to go into settings to enable it first. There are also numerous alternative keyboards to use if you don't like that keyboard.
-Video playback is very good on the tab. But like every tablet on the market you should convert your video to mp4 first for optimum results, or use an alternate video player such as MoboPlayer, Rock Player, Vplayer etc. If you don't know how to covert video files then check this thread for some simple instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060825

Yeah I believe the samsung force close is caused by an authentication issue on the samsung account. I looked in log with aLogCat after a force close (they always come at boot and always twice) and there was an exception logged from the samsung account app.
This happens when connected to a wifi network and also when not connected. Whatever causes it to bw unable to authenticate, the Samsung Account app certainly doesnt handle that condition well.
And finally, you think Samsung would have caught this one....
I took my Tab 10.1 back and got a Tab 7" instead. Honeycomb has a long way to go really, and all the issues the OP had I can attest to. Hardware was nice, slim and tight but given the software issues I couldn't justify the $500 tag when a 7" tab was going for $200 brand new. Very happy with my decision.

I reset to default and everything works perfectly now... the text SLOWNESS is limited to the default browser app.. I use either Opera or Dolphin now.
My only gripe now is with Samsungs advertisement or shall I say FALSE advertisement... this is not the tab they advertise. It does not have touchwiz, mini apps or Media Hub support

So you have no lag on the home screens when scrolling from one to the other, you have no typing lag on google browser. I don't think so....
Smooth it definitely is not"..."
no lag with he screens. Keyboard lag yes. Otherwise its running nice. It is a leaked tw rom that has been modified. I expect a custom rom based on the official release in a couple days.
Hi, first of all sorry if this post is hidden somewhere but since i upgraded my tf201 to ice cream sandwish igot this problem : I can't play megavideo videos in fullscreen it just lead to a white page, on stock browser video works but after 5-10 mins the browser shutdown im kinda out of ideas. I tried uninstalling flash, dolphin browser hd, reinstalling both and tried iphone,ipad,android and desktop mode everytime with same result video hang then whitescreen gotta restart browser. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Anyone had this problem???
Have you tried with the Flash update that came out today for compatibility with ICS?
Is it a different version than the one from market? I just uninstall/reinstall flash and dolphin hd tonight from market thx for reply
So nobody got this problem since ics??
Try using a 3rd party app such as Mobo or Rockplayer. If that doesn't work try a factory reset. Also ask Jerdog to move this to Q&A as this is a question.
I am also having this problem on my tp running ics dolphin and adobe. everything is up to date and says that it will fix the problem, but it does not. it happens on random videos, some work in full screen and some white screen. I think it has something to do with the flash player because I did not have the problem until i installed adobe (it was needed to play some videos that are now white screening). Videos work fine until they go fullscreen. My stock browser works fine and rarely crashes. I just like dolphins ui the best.
Any fixes found?
I am also having this issue, have tried 10 browsers, it is happening in all of them when you try to play embedded video and full screen videos. Frustrating as hell. I am sure an update is coming that will fix it.
No Problems Here...
My TFP is working flawlessly since ICS, the HD video play pretty well without any lag. I have a bunch of them... try a clearing the data from the app.
You know, you should give us some kind of link or example so we can try some specific thing ourselves instead of just asking whether "videos" work for us or not.

Right, for example give use the Hd Video type you are trying to play...
It happens to me. Here's an example: if I'm at a page that has flash video, I will start seeing the video, hit the button for full screen, and the whole screen turns white, the video does not play.

thanks alot for all you're answers, i tryed a system restore yesterday with no success i already tried to push back and retry fullscreen didnt work as for the 3rd party i'll try that tonight same goes for the link ill post it tonight since im actually at work. Anyway the videos i tried was from animefreak website i tried using a different mirror (different player than megavideo) with same result. Ill keep you updated, thanks
Hitting back does nothing as the prime will freeze on a white screen. App must be rebooted to function properly.
I have seen this problem on pc due to the hardware acceleration option, i wonder if that might have something to do with it. Although it would be weird to have hardware acceleration on a flash player meant for a tablet. I tried to mess with the player settings but found nothing that would help.
Although the stock browsers is not so fun it seems to work so I would just use it until the issue is fixed.

Yes and i just tried it again with no luck
Also Bl0odymess did a factory restore and installed everything fresh and still has the problem as well
I am just watching streaming on the default browser now
Waiting for adobe or dolphin to fix
im doing the same as susko using the default browser even if it crashes randomly when im watching videos. thanks alot for you replys every1
EDIT : btw, 3rd party softwares were just for local video, couldnt find how to open an url with them. Tryed megaplayer software but havent managed to make it work thanks
I have the same probleme yesterday. But i have an fix that works for me.
1. First deinstall over Apps the Flash Player.
2. Then install the flashplayer 11 over the market!!!
This is important because, if you open the browser without flash it ask you to install flash and with this package it doesn't work. I dont know why, but only the package in the Market work with fullscreen flashvideos!
I hope i can help you
EDIT:
It work for the first time, after it shown the with screen you describe
EDIT2:
It works, but only in the AndroiBrowser! In the other Browser only a white screen is shown.
Since ICS sense Roms have had app associations I have had nothing but trouble getting hd YouTube without something freezing or taking a long time to even start.
This has broken YouTube associations and I have not found a work around. For some reason it always goes straight to the browser to open youtube. This is a pain and slow plus lower quality than the official app. Is there a workaround out there to have YouTube videos play natively in its own app from links?
Since there is no YouTube associations under app associations and that the old clearing defaults doesn't do anything I could use some help me. This issue has finally annoyed the heck of out me that I had to ask for a solution since I can never find a fix.

Hi Everyone,
I need help on my nexus 5/Android 4.4.2. I want to be able to troubleshoot and figure out why my nexus 5 is acting strange -at least the OS part of it.
A BIT OF HISTORY: I just recently purchased this phone in the US through a friend.
THE SITUATION/ISSUES:
- When I go to the app drawer, sometimes the wall paper in the background turns black and comes back just after I tap a an app
- When I use the chrome browser and surf the web some something, it reloads the page I am viewing without me triggering reload. It's kinda annoying that it reloads pages i am viewing. Quiet a few times chrome crashed.
- When I use youtube and tap the voice command to search for videos, it accepts the command but it doesn't load the videos I wanted to search.
- Sometimes, when I tap the home button it kinda reloads the home screen.
I thought that it might be just the OS and maybe a glitch or something. I tried factory reset (vanilla android) a few times but it is the same. I have tried cyanogenmod 11 on it and it is still the same issues.
I am a newbie. This is my first nexus android. I have used HTC desire HD for a month and it doesn't have this problem.
If I am unclear with describing my situation/problem please let me know.

Since it persists in different roms looks like a hardware issue.. More of an ram issue is what I can make of.. Take a logcat and send it my way and I'll look at it.
The last 2 errors are pretty common. The last one is because your launcher is not locked on ram.

Thanks for the reply MasterAwesome.
I have just downloaded aLogCat to log issues on my phone. Once I've gathered enough activity/issues, I'll send it your way.
Are issues likes these common in Nexus 5's? I've reverted back to my Stock Android.
YouTube issue: I didn't update the YouTube app and the voice search feature on it worked fine - at least for now that seems to be the fix for it.
Chrome Browser reloading issue: I haven't found a fix but Chrome Beta seem to work fine. Still reloads but not quite as often. I think this reloading issue isn't just contained in Chrome Browser.
Skype Video Call issue: I forgot to mention that I used Skype for a video call once and every 1-3 minutes the video drops (but not the call) I would have to press back to go out of the call without hanging up and get back to it. That seem to reload the video again.

They are common? I have an N5 and have a few friends with them and hang out in the Nexus 5 forums too. It's definitely not that common. I've flashed dozens of roms on my phone and have not experienced any of these problems besides Chrome reloading a few times, though even that only happened a few times. I also use Nova Launcher and have never seen it reload (besides waiting for a new theme to load) or flake out once.
