While streaming music the part which hasn't been buffered yet starts lagging and becomes this messed up dubstep-ish sound, any ideas?
I've tried stock, CM9 and [email protected] Roms so i guess it's not the software going bananas.

Probably just your connection being too slow to handle the stream.
Well I'm under h3g all the time so I don't think so. It hasn't happen before a few weeks ago.
But I shouldn't worry that something in the hardware is broken?

No, if your local music works, shouldn't be the hardware.

After the OTA update, my photon has generally been performing very well. I had the silent call/no audio issue before, but they seem to have gone away completely since the update. I only experience the "random" reboot issue when I am using music/audio applications such as Pandora and Google music.
Also, if I am listening to music using Pandora and I turn the phone from portrait to landscape (and vice versa), the audio pauses/stutters with each rotation. If I do this enough, I can usually get the phone to lock up and reboot eventually.
Has anyone else experienced similar issues?
I was having hanging issues with Pandora have you got the update That came out today it has been fine since I downloaded that

Are you talking about the MR5 update that came out earlier in the week? I have downloaded that and am still experiencing the issue
No there was a Pandora update that came out yesterday from the market also make sure your phone is set to automatic for the network settings and on high performance for battery settings or it can do weird stuff

I notice the phone stutters in pretty much everything I do outside of the music app. If I start messing with settings while it's playing it stutters over and over. I also notice that the music player and music widget don't play well with each other. I can be playing music in the app and on my homescreen the widget doesn't even show what I am playing and just sits blank. I am really starting to see some bugs with the software on this phone.

Thanks. The update seems to have fixed the stuttering issue for me. I'll see if I get any more lockups/freezes over the next few days
I spoke too soon. After about 10 minutes on pandora, the stuttering came back. I wonder if this is an android issue or a photon specific problem

Yea I see this stuttering too.. used to happen on my Evo OG when I was using bluetooth stereo headphones and came into a building where my wifi knew the password. After the first update on that phone it was fixed.
I notice if I disable wifi it fixes the stuttering issue on the photon as well... but on the photon it happens whenever my wifi finds something in range, even if the phone doesn't have a connection to the wifi. After a while it seems to stop, like the hardware requests more resources and settles it.. but it is still quite annoying.
You can also get root explorer and change it in the build.prop

Definitely considering trading my Photon in for the Epic 4G Touch when it comes out on the 19th. Not only do I get the reboots while streaming but I also get the stuttering as you have mentioned...doesn't matter what the signal level is. Sometimes Last FM and Pandora will not play at all on this phone.

No problem here..try to hard reset it...
i just got it so how can there be a problem already?!
everything else is fine just the launcher is lagging..
Try full wipe of the phone, everything is smooth here unless i connect HDMI which is a different problem
done the reset and NOTHING changed.. im a bout to return this baby
It's because of gingerbread I think.. I have seen ICS on the Xperia S, and it's an amazing difference. If you can stand it as is for a couple of months then you'll be up for a treat.

Can't see much difference to be honest... I had mine for two weeks now and I can easily say it's as smooth as the iPhone 4s.. And yes my brother had one so I can compare..
My complaints are with some force closes that I face with a couple of apps but that's a different issue which is related to the app itself..

Most people don't have the problem because they are not noticing this "laggy-ness". It's something most people doesn't think about. As for me, I think it works pretty well - but ICS is gonna be better.

Very visible for me. I hate that. Must.. Be.. Smooth..
Some widgets needs to get tweaked. Very choppy when scrolling to them.
Sent from my LT26i using XDA
It really lags but not the widgets just when i scroll through the icons in the launcher it stutters badly,,,
Sent from my LT26i using XDA
My phone is insanely smooth, not choppy at all.
Obviously if you have like 5 of those animated weather widgets on a screen it will probably jump a little between screens, but yea, you have 5 animated weather widgets .
Do you have a different launcher? maybe you have a really heavy launcher?
I seriously have no problems, and I am really picky if I have weird lags and such.
Maybe you have a lot of background apps running?
Maybe the update to. 67 could help?

hello guys
my sxs is almost piano black couse my pocket
bravia yellow screen by factory issue
and now it reset it self in stress
I'm asking:
WTF?!
Mine also resets itself now and again but mainly it crashes so I have to do a hard re-boot. I think it's because the phone simply can't handle the technology inside it

Highly unlikely.
More likely :
An app you installed is doing it. I had a live wallpaper that used to freeze up and reboot my phone, so I uninstalled it.

Possibly, but the reason I guess what I did is because I know tons of these phones that have had the same problem and even a lot of posts here on xda show the same problems aswell. So that's why I'm thinking it must be something on the phone originally rather than something that's been out onto it.

So after the update my screen is still redrawing from tike to time. Anyone else having this too?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Yup, get this from time to time. Doesn't appear to be any rhyme or reason to as and when it happens, but it does occasionally redraw. It's a weird one, hopefully it'll be sorted relatively soon!

It still redraws for me with Apex.
This can only be addressed by optimising apps to use less RAM. This is an inherent problem on any device without sufficient RAM.

In the beginning after the update it seemed to be gone. I still get it though occasionally when play a game like Nova or when play a 720P flash video in the internet.

Saw a vid on youtube and there were some commenters saying it´s still present. Guess It´s just not totally gone yet.
yeah, still have this issue and it's really annoying... Many were saying S2 does not have this issue, so why do we have this on S3? Good QA from Samsung for their most expensive smartphone!

Had the yellowish tint and it was getting it worse then sent it off to Sony came back a month later with ICS installed but nfc broken and I use it all the time and getting FC even using contacts aaarrrrrggghhh if it goes back to them I may just give up and jump ship grrrrr
6 reboots and countless FC's and gave up installing the rest of my daily needed app's that never gave trouble before.

You can try installing ICS again using SEUS.. It may help

But would not bring much satisfaction cause one blow and its done!!!

just calm down and breathe, take a step back and youll see things much clearer.
Things like this can sometimes be easily fixed with one click of a button. Repair it with SUS.:fingers-crossed:
Just try repair using PcC or SUS, many issue can be fixed but just give it a go mate Gud luck

Oh brought back to stock few times and did a Sus as well but before did that went into config and this forced the nfc which is good but not the proximity which is real bad.
So now thinking of slow painful death on the phone drip of acid in the jack slot may do it >:~}

NFC has issues on the stock Roms. Try a custom Rom and see if it works better or even drop back to gb. Stock ice is buggy.

True, and not that it brothers me rooting and fixing, but really annoys me that we spend plenty of money like lemmings on devices that are really below standard.
It its usually the second version of all manufactures devices that the bugs are ironed out.
So now have to spend hours of my time fixing the crap that should not have been there in the first place. Companies are now out sourcing the support for their devices to the crowd. If only they would reduce their prices to match the poor support!
