[Q] Dell Venue 8 Android - Dell Venue

Hi...I have upgraded to KitKat...and since then I see my screen dim up/down when I change from apps to websites. I just wanna know if anyone is has been having the same problem. It didn't happen till I updated. I talked to Dell & then can't find anything about it. So if no 1 has the same problem as I do. Then I will send it back to Dell...Pls let me know if anyone else is havin this problem. Thank you.

It's happening on mine too. A lot of problems seem to be correlating with use of the aosp browser's webview. I'm getting sleep of death a couple times a day. I've been in contact with Dell and apparently a fix is in the works. Hopefully the recent 4.4.3 code will fix most of it

[Q] MacRom MR8 market/app issues

First off I want to say that MacRom is the most stable/speedy ROM I've used so far (thanks for all the hard work!).
Just a couple issues with the new MR8 update:
1. The new market seems to be really slow? (maybe just due to the older Eris' lack of speed?)
2. I don't know if this is a market related issue or not, but I can't install a couple apps I use. The market doesn't give me an option to even download them: Words with Friends and Google Books. I'm not sure if it's related to the new market or if the apps are somehow incompatible with the new MR8 update?
3. Is there a way to get rid of the blue line that appears whenever you tap the screen to make a selection? I've been searching but have yet to find a way. The line just kind of annoys me, personally.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I love this ROM! Thanks!
Dude the same thing has been happening the past two days for me on Deadly and Spicy ROMs. For instance I had not been able to get Titanium but I got my Pro key fine, and same thing with XDA, regular worked fine but couldn't download premium. I took a nap earlier and woke up and had premium I'm about to check Titanium so it may be a Market issue.

Good to know. Hopefully it's just a market issue then, but still no luck for me...
same here
i too am wondering why i can't download certain apps from the market, like facebook for example. it's not already installed and i get no download button for that app in the market...but i get download button for most other apps.
also wondering about how to get rid of blue bar on menu selections.

I've seen the same issues with MR8 and MR9... I'm looking into the issue, but haven't found a work-around yet. I'm thinking it may possibly be a result of the build revision bump to 2.3.5 that might be throwing the market off (showing the phone as incompatible with your device), but it's only a theory, no fact to that yet...
Glad to know I'm not the only one as I have been having trouble downloading my premium apps too. I flashed 2.3.5 yesterday. I'm a noob so I was wondering what I Fk'd up... LOL!

[Q] Folder Issue Help Please?

Hi,
I'm a new user and a new Android owner. I used to be an IPhone user so all this freedom is amazing.
With all freedom though does come, confusion though and wondered if some body would be able to help me.
I’m having problems with folders I’ve created on the home screen. At least every couple of days the folders just stop working. Not all folders, just one or two normally the same ones. When I say not working if I click on it nothing happens. To solve the problem I have to turn the phone back on and back off again.
Has anyone experienced this before? Or know of a solution?
I’m also using Launcher Pro I don’t know if this is connected or not?
Thanks in advance
Has no one had this problem then? It can't just be me.

[Q] BBC iPlayer flicker?

Anyone getting an annoying triangle-shaped black flicker across the left of the screen when viewing content on iplayer?
I'm using stock browser, Flash 11 stock 3.1 Tom with TouchWiz.
If so, any suggestions to clear it?
Thanks
Did you manage to resolve this issue. Just recently bought my tab and have the same issue.
I saw one fix which suggest to come out of full screen view and go back in (sometimes requires a couple of attempts).
The above actually works for me (requires to be done for every session). But would be interesting to know what the cause of it is. I have not experienced it in any other sort of video.
Same here
I have this problem also, really annoying.
Hopefully a future Flash player update will resolve this.
Same here, p7500 16GB. Same issue
All stock no custom roms tried at all
Signed, quite frustrating and only seems to be iplayer for me
I still have the issue but find the full-screen back to small-screen toggle seems to help. How annoying. The most recent Flash update didn't fix it, and the most recent ROM update in the UK (Vodaphone) didn't solve it.
Had the same issue on my 8.9 tab after an automatic update of Flash.
Uninstalled the update and all was well again.
Your mileage might vary on a 10.1 but here's hoping this sorts you guys out too.

Yes that also worked for me, however I do wonder what we are missing out on from the later releases. Hope adobe will release another update that fixes the bits it broke with the last update. Thanks.
Ive noticed this once on mine, but i had my bluetooth headphones connected and just thought it was interference from them. After i disconnected them and just used the internal speakers, it was fine again. Ive not had the problem since. My problem is with the iplayer itself, you cant keep it running in the background which prevents you from multitasking!

I have the black triangle issue with latest version of Flash Player. Can someone let me know what version of flash you are using to get rid of the triangle please?

[Q] Issue with swiping between emails in Gmail app

Anybody else seeing issues with emails not loading if you swipe between them?
I had Paranoid Android for a while and the issue didn't exist there but I'v just switched back to the latest UK build of Stock (DLJ4 I believe) and the issue is back, it's driving me mental.
I'm hoping if anyone has come across the problem, that they've got a solution.

[Q] Chrome starts with black screen

Hi everyone,
I have tried to search for a solution to my problem but I haven't been very successful. If anyone knows of links to possible resolutions to my problem, please reply with them.
I have an issue with the chrome browser starting with a completely black screen. At first I thought it was only my last phone (RAZR HD), but the problem is also present on my Verizon Note 3. If it were just an issue on a single phone, I'd probably ask in specific phone forums, but it's happened on two different phones now.
I'm presuming that the problem might be caused by an app I'm using, but the problem is intermittent so I can't tell if the issue subsides when I uninstall certain apps.
Any help or insight in this issue is appreciated.
Thanks
I have the same issue. Seems in my case its ANY 4.3 rom. It started after an update to Chrome around the fifteenth or so of November. It'll work but if I change tabs or switch apps it will turn black when resuming. Older versions of Chrome don't have the problem. I've gone back to a 4.2.2 root box rom with no problems.

The latest update to chrome doesn't render the pages immediately.
This would most likely be to open chrome faster.
However, users are reporting that they don't get past a black screen.
This is common.
Go complain to google devs though, not here. (The bug tracker they have)
Right on. Will do. Not so much complaining as just sharing with the OP. Thanks for letting us know its very common. My searches have not returned much information at all. Including Google searches and searches here and on XDA.
Thanks again!

I see. My RAZR HD was still on 4.1.2 and this was an issue there too. Thanks for the information.
Side note: I'm glad I wasn't the only person having difficulty searching on this subject.
sorry for the huge bump but if anyone was wondering my dpi was 350 and this issue stated when my Rom was changed to a 350 DPI. I used xposed and App Settings to change the DPI of chrome to 480 and no more black screens
EDIT(2 hours later):Nope it just came back.
