here. i will share mine. First i downloaded the .MAP for Need For Speed Most Wanted since i have that game. I set the profile to that mapping, then started the game. It hangs, rebooted phone just to control it again. at that time, only the hardware buttons of my phone are working, touch screen isn't. After that i tried again, i managed to run and play the game, then i was too lazy to quit the game so i just pressed the home button, and touch isn't working again. So restart was the only fix.
That is what exactly happened.
Another thing, do you guys know any application for Windows 32bit or Android phone where i can test the buttons of the controller? i just mapped them on FPSE and some buttons doesn't work.

Random Touchscreen Hangs

I've been experiencing random touchscreen hangs, seemingly regardless of the rom used. The device is still responding, and I can see activity, but I have to turn the screen off and on again to get it to resume function.
Any suggestions?
This happens in CM9, and all tested ICS roms, as well as native Ubuntu.
Please help me!!!!

Does it also happen in webOS?
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using Tapatalk 2
I have not used WebOS enough to determine this, but since it does it in Ubuntu and CM9/ICS, I would assume it's a cross-platform issue.
Only way to tell is using webOS... if it does it in webOS then I'd have to say its hardware related

Removed/wiped all partitions, doctored to stock, started over, and seems to be fixed. Running smooth on OaT's Light n Tasty!

If you ever have those exact issues again, I've replicated them by using a different charger/cord combination: it's strange because it works fine with an HTC charger/cord, and the stock one, but I used a Samsung one in a pinch and got EXACTLY those issues.

It is still doing it :/ But I'm not sure what you mean. I charge my Touchpad using many different cables, but it always seems to freeze when it's not connected to power.

Have you eliminated it as a possible hardware issuse. You may want to run a diagnostic on the TP, You can do that by starting Webos, opening the setting tab, and clicking on the "Device Info" icon. From here in the upper left corner select "device info". From the drop down menu, select "Diagnostic" and perform the "Touch sensors". If you get errors I would suspect the issuse is not software. related
Another suggestion:
You may want to check what your Touchpad is optimized for, *"Finger" or "Stylus" input. Start CM9, *go to the "Applications" tab, locate the "HP TouchPad" icon. This application/shortcut will take you to setting and allow you to check what input the Touchpad has been optimized (finger or stylus) for. Choose you preference and exit. *If you don't have the icon; *Go to "Setting", Scroll to "Advanced". That will bring you to the "TouchScreen Optimization Strategy"screen. As before choose the input mode you want.
Hope this helps.
One of my TPs has also been doing this.
I have 3 32GB TPs all running CM9 nightlies. One of the 3 has had touch input stop working 2x when coming off charging(touchstone). It comes back if I long press power + home key to reboot.
As it only occurs on 1 of my 3, I am thinkng its HDW related.
I will try the diagnostics and report back

[Q] Galaxy S3 issues

So I got my phone almost two weeks ago when It got released.. Basically it's amazing and everything works fine except that when I play Temple run or Magic Piano these two games that I tried out are so good and they run smoothly but the speaker gives me cracked sounds like I can't hear smooth sound coming out from the speaker without cracking up I tried to use a headphone and restart my phone, hard reset and it's still the same. I don't know why I get this issue I saw few people they were saying that temple run and magic piano works so fine with them. Not sure if it's a hardware issue.
---
My device also heats a lot when using it, like playing a game or just browsing and listening to songs nothing that uses lot's of graphics or anything but I get lot's of overheating issues. Could it also be a battery issue or that's normal?
I'll be taking it to service tonight to check it up It's so unusual and I don't like how it's really bad although it's a new phone and I don't use it a lot.
Thanks
Yes from what you have mentioned, it looks like you have a defective unit and they can replace the device. The behavior is not normal.
same problem
i recently bought the s3 and im having the same problem.. apart from this the phone screen tends to be a bit yellow when im using whats app.. what did the samsung guy say to when you took the phone to the service station??
Same again...
Snap. I've had my Galaxy S3 since last Saturday and have exactly the same issue. So far it seems to affect Temple Run, Mass Effect Infiltrator, Magic Piano and Real Racing 2. All of them have crackled, distorted sound that makes them near unplayable with the sound turned on.
Bizzarely this is the only thread I can find that even mentions the issue! Please can you let us know what Samsung's feedback is?
temple run with and without headphones gives perfect sound for me
solved... or not?
try doing a factory data reset.. it worked for me.. but someone i spoke to said that the problem came back after a while.. after he installed a launcher... i dont know if using a launcher causes this problem but as of now.. running stock touch wiz... both temple run and magic piano work fine..
Hey guys..I have a brand new s3 and it is also exhibiting the same issues with temple run. The sound shutters ( would appreciate if anyone found a fix to this.. I have a galaxy s3 white international version.
+1
3 weeks old S3. Cracking noises when I used the speaker during phone calls.
When other party speaks => clear
When I speak => crack, crack, crack especially the first few words
Tried setting call quality, no improvement. Not sure if this is a hardware issue?
I had the same issue, but aparently this had something to do with one of the updates. Yesterday's update solved this issue.
Temple run runs without any issue.smooth.will be checking other games too after downloading

Well guyz even I was facing the same problem but I finally figured out whats the exact issue...All u need to do is go to settings ----> Sound ----> Disable Auto Heptic or click on auto heptic ----> Mark the application you want it to be disabled for.
Well one more thing...Its is turned off by default so if you will reset your phone it will work ....I happened to turn it on accidentally without knowing whats exactly it is and I am sure that most of you must have did the same thing....!!!!

Good for you. My heptic feedback is always off. Still have speaker cracking.
Just did a factory reset. Have to monitor and see if it solves the problem.

I'm getting the exact same issue with the games above...haven't seen the issue arise with any other apps so I'm not too worried however it would be great if a fix was found
Edit: Just tried turning off auto haptic in sound settings and strangely enough this actually fixes this problem for me :s
It's a common fault, return the unit and get a new one.
Gob done.

To fix that, you have to open S-Voice> Settings> uncheck Launch S-Voice by double tapping home button
Thanks everybody. I had the problems with home button lag and temple run and the fixes described here worked perfectly.

Touchkey/softkey backlight

My SG2 phone running supernexus has a setting for persistent backlight for the touchkeys when the screen is on but it doesn't work. I found reference to this being a "bug" and that more people have the issue that they don't turn off but I want mine to stay on.
Does anyone know if there is a fix for this?

Try looking for an app in the Play Store.

Thanks but it still doesn't work. Is this a hardware issue???
It's aggravating that most people complain about the keys stuck ON but my are stuck turning off after a second or two (and yes I tried a longer time as well as persistent. Doesn't work. )
EDIT: duh I realized it can't be hardware. Worked fine before I rooted my phone and installed supernexus. It's a problem for me because the keys are in different orders on my devices so I'm always hitting the wrong key.

Samsung Sidesync 3.0

I just heard about this and it was free so decided to try it out...but I have no idea how to control my phone when it's on my pc screen. I can click the hard buttosn that it displays on the GUI but anything on the phone screen itself (displayed on the PC), it only has the big blue circle that does nothing when I click except pulse a bit telling me I clicked here.
Also, the description was a bit confusing but when they said use the phone as a second monitor..I can't extent my PC Windows as a dual screen, right? Just meaning I can use both devices simultaneously with a single KB/M set??
edit:
seems like it responds to Key Board but not the Mouse. Also with Keyboard, I can't siwtch back the Window to 1 and 5 out of 5, only between 2 3 4? If I keep pushing Left or Right it finally goes. Int he App Drawer Page...I have no idea how to scroll up and down to choose something else that's not in my PoV
