Z3 compact tablet Chrome issue - Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti

Hey there. I have the z3 tablet compact WiFi and there's a problem with switching tabs in Chrome. I have recorded it: https://youtu.be/q65I5H_5Fu0
The tablet (SGP611) RUNS Android 5.1.1 and build number 23.4.A.1.264. The weird thing is it only occurs in Chrome and only with the latest version of Chrome. When i remove all Chrome updates, the tab switching goes without any distortion.
Anybody got a clue how to make the latest version of Chrome run properly on my tablet?

Oh, at first I thought it was because of the ROM I'm trying (LineageOS), but if you have the same issue on the Lollipop stock ROM, then it's probably a Chrome issue. I expect this to be fixed soon (hopefully)

It seems to be fixed now with todays update of Chrome.

[Q] ICS Browser issues?

Hey guys,
I've been running AOKP ICS (M3) on my GTab 10.1 WiFi for the last few days with flawless performance and very few issues. However, I am experiencing problems in the stock browser. After, several minutes of surfing, the browser becomes very laggy. Soon after pages fail to load and hang around 10%. At this point the browser is unusable. The problem persists until I close the browser and force close it. Has any one else experienced this issue on ICS? Any fixes?
Note: I have tried all of the obvious fixes like wiping cache, data, reinstalling from, etc.
Thanks!

It seems to happen on image and java intensive sites for me. I found using an ad blocker fixed most of the freezes. Other than that i think we will just have to wait for an update. (aircanada. Com crashes the browser on every visit)
Yeah memory intensive sites tend to cause this. I just installed an ad blocker, I'll see if it helps. Thanks for the advice!
I'm pretty sure once everything with tegra 2 gets sorted out completely, it'll work fine.
Same problem here
ics is more smooth than honeycomb, I don't want to flash back because of this glitch.
I have installed the ads blocker before but problem still
anyone have the solution ?
Guys, a bit OT maybe, but seems like a good place to ask
I was also trying this ICS build yesterday and loved what I saw, but there were two main problems that are deal-breakers for me at the moment:
- I can't subsribe to any Google services (gmail, reader, market), because there's no way to sync google account as as actual "google account",
- because of above, I can't install - from the android.market.com - apps that I already had, because it says I already have them installed; I have to look around the web for .apk-s and install manually
Did you also had those problems? Is it the same for every ICS build out there? Will this be fixed for the final Cyanogenmod9 release?
For the time being, I'll stay on GalaxyTask 13...
Well, the ad blocker definitley seems to help and my issues with the browser are far less frequent.
@antic604
I would do a full wipe, then install the latest version and don't forget to flash gapps afterward.
Try setting pluggins to on demand.
Same thing here on my asus prime, even if my plugin is on demand. I didn't have this issue on my prev asus. I'm very disappointed. This OS is just like a beta version. So the prime with ics is very bad value for the money. I don't know what to do, sell it or wipe and load a new rom :-/

Yeah I have the exact same problem.
I use Chrome Beta whenever the Stock browser becomes laggy and hangs, it's very annoying.
This problem I have and the face .avi files get deleted, I have placed a fair few series on my Tab and wanted to access some and half of them were gone.
This happened a few times already.

[Q] STS Issues after Reset - How to fix

My Sony Tablet S was working fine up until a few days ago. It was on ICS Firmware R5A and rooted using the recent exploit. The only real issue I had with it was that the keyboard app I was using (SwiftKey for Tablet) was not running particularly smoothly with my chrome browser. Anyways, a couple of days ago I noticed that the tablet had suddenly begun to lag quite badly so I figured I would do a factory reste and see if that helped. On the contrary, it has made things MUCH worse.
First up, I could not start the tablet beyond the lock screen. It transpired that the Launcher apk has gone missing so I loaded Nova and managed to get on the Play Store to download the Sony Home Launcher but now every time I select the Sony Home Launcher it closes on me so I am stuck with Nova. Next thing I have noticed is that the stock browser is missing. Also the Play store keeps closing on me also.
The tablet remains on 4.0.3.r5a and remains rooted after the reset. But I would really like to get the Home Launcher working again and also the stock browser back.
If it were my phone, I would flash another version of the firmware or install the relevant apks but I am not sure whether I can do this on the Tablet S and also where to find the files to install. I am currently installing the latest Tablet S flasher for r5a so that if I need to flash something I can.
Other than that, Any other help on getting my tablet working for me again would be greatly appreciated.

Apps crash constanly on the Z4T

I have now the second device. The fist had screen backlight issues, which are better now, but not completely solved.
But the new device has the issue now that certain apps crash immediately after starting them. Sometime one needs to open them 10 times, before they get stable.
This happens also, if one reboots the machine and the first app after the restart crashes directly.
This affects not all apps, but Instagram, Google+, Facebook are such candidates which crash frequently.
Other apps like Chrome had never failed so far.
The report, which can be send to Google show signals like 6 or 11 are the cause for the crash.
Is this the known Lollipop 5.0.x RAM bug?
But after rebooting and 32GB RAM, there should be plenty of memory?
I also made a factory reset and installed only some apps, but it did not get better, the crash orgy goes on.
Did anyone else observed such behavior?
Fist Sorry for my Bad English. Im are German
This ist not normaly. Have you make the Lollipop Update 5.02
Here is no Crash on Apps. Some Games not work anymore. Lollipop inkompatible.
Game that not work
Shredder Shess must be v1.3.1. V1.2.2 Crash on Startup.
GT Racing 2 frozen after first Race and not Response anymore
Oscura crash on Startup
Galactic not reponse after load to Start Screen
This is a Lollipop issue.

No worries, I'm also German.
I returned the second device yesterday. The guy from the retail store told me not to try a third one.
I should wait for the second charge of the production line. He confirmed other returns of the tablet in his store.
Very sad, the device would be great in theory, but it has to many teething troubles at the moment.
So I will go with my nearly dead Nexus 7 and stay tuned, maybe an other vendor brings a stunning item or I change to the dark side and buy an iPad :crying:
Please post software version and app-version #
To put this in perspective and maybe even help you, you should post some version numbers (find it in about Tablet or in an App help).
Wifi or LTE would also be helpful.
In Germany the Tablets came with software 28.0.A.6.2
I am on 28.0.7.24 and have no crashes whatsoever.
28.0.7.31 might reach the servers next week.

Amazon Kindle App Broken on AOSP 5.1.1

Realizing that Samsung (long ago) abandoned th P7510 (p4wifi), I rooted and installed Lollipop 5.1.1 by decatf. Fabulous! Love the speed improvements. Happy the Samsung junk is gone. The past month or so has been great UNTIL.......
I am on a cross country trip and ran out of paperback books. "No problem, I will just buy some books from Amazon and read them with the Kindle App."
Oh, s**t, the Amazon Kindle App is happy to let me buy and download ebooks, but when I try to READ a book, the Kindle App crashes and drops me back to the desktop.
Does anyone have the Amazon Kindle App working on the AOSP 5.1.1 ROM?
Can anybody suggest how to troubleshoot this problem? I have deleted and reinstalled the Kindle App. Cleared cache. The app let's me download books, but crashes every time I try to read ANY book (have tried several).
(I would have posted there, but "newbies" are not allowed to post in Development forums.)
decatf is a bloody genius as far as I am concerned. Without his ROM, I would have tossed this tablet.
kindle app update will crash on both 5.1.1 and 6.0.1 too I think.
it crashes under AOSP 6.0.1 ROM too , I just wanted to let you know that on the new version, it also crashes on some ebook title not all of them crash when opening, its almost random on 6.0 when the kindle app will crash. not sure if their going to be an fix to this problem anytime soon.
Which 6.0.1 ROM

Where did you get a 6.0.1 ROM for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (p4wifi)?
My impression was that decatf ran into a roadblock with Marshmallow and said, "That's all folks! Nothing after 5.1.1
I really have nothing to lose by giving Marshmallow a shot on this tablet, UNLESS..... are there other apps that you have found do not work on 6.0.1 ?
Thanks

The rom is right here, but some features are not working like for example I can't run the game Subway Surf update The last version that worked on my hardware is 1.47.1 on 11 26 2015, the Christmas version displays an message saying it does not support my Samsung galaxy tablet 10.1 it has an failure to initialize! Your hardware does not support this application, sorry!. So I can't use the Christmas update for the game its not related to the AOSP version but the game app itself is broken.
and the camera flashlight flash hardware part is not working either, it says the camera is working on the person page below but I can't get my camera flash at night to go on when taking photos.
The other thing is the crashing of kindle app when opening some ebooks, otherwise they do load.
under Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android Development  and its title [ROM][Unofficial][AOSP] Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-10-1/development/rom-android-6-0-marshmallow-t3266663
p4wifi: WIFI only tablet.
aosp-6.0-p4wifi-20151211.zip
above is the build that I tried on my tablet. I don't think the 3D hardware is working with this build because the 3D running game called Subway Surf will not play at all and Fruit Ninja Free plays but it seems to slow down at times during the cutting of the fruits. I hope its fixed in future builds, Bluetooth somewhat works for my Bluetooth soundbar hardware but you have to turn it on each time you boot the android. and the percentage text is missing from the charging mode when the tablet is turned off, it just shows the icon changing without the text.
What does seem to work is scummvm app, these games they run just fine under aosp 6.0 p4wifi , I tried a few of mine like day of the tentacle, sam and max hit the road, and other titles etc.. so if you own these Lucas Arts games they will run on this tablet with this build they seem to run fine as far as I can tell , I got the scummvm build version from the play store but you can download it from here too.
http://www.scummvm.org/
you can use the above web link to also download new builds of scummvm if you need to they seem to work fine, on the new version. so far it has not crash the scummvm app at all, so as far as I can tell it runs under android 6.0 on this tablet, not sure how long the batteries work on the tablet running these games, I have not really test it that much so I don't no how long you can play them for on it.
Subway surfers fails to run , not related to AOSP version but the update itself cause
The last version that worked on my hardware is 1.47.1 on 11 26 2015, the Christmas version displays an message saying it does not support my Samsung galaxy tablet 10.1 it has an failure to initialize! Your hardware does not support this application, sorry!. So I can't use the Christmas update.
its not related to the AOSP build but the app itself fails to run on Samsung galaxy tablet 10.1 , the last version 1.47.1 on 11 26 2015 still runs, you don't get that message above until you update the version to the Christmas one, so its been brokened since the latest release, I just check that since I downgrade the app, and now it plays again.
Older Kindle App Works as Well!
Thanks for the wonderful observation that sometimes an older version of an app will work, whereas the more recent versions do not. I went to apkmirror.com and downloaded the Amazon Kindle app from Feb, 2015. Installed it as a "foreign source", and to my surprise and amazement, it appears to open and READ A BOOK! There are several updates between Feb, 2015 and today. I could, perhaps, try them one-after-another and find the most recent app that works. But, why bother? All I have to do now is be alert and NEVER "update" the Kindle app. (That's a good question. Since I did not install the Kindle app through Android Play, maybe it will not know the app is even installed, and will never offer me an "update".)
Of course, xdadevelopers has cost Google a sale, since I now have less incentive to purchase a Nexus tablet to replace my Tab 10.1
Thanks!
Kindle crashing lollipop

[P4Wifi] Android 6.0.1,latest update of Subway Surf fails to run & Flashlight flash

[P4Wifi] Android 6.0.1,latest update of Subway Surf fails to run & Flashlight flash
So I wanted to report 4 problems with this rom, that I found while testing it, since yesterday.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-10-1/development/rom-android-6-0-marshmallow-t3266663
I am using an Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wifi only tablet with this rom the camera works but the flash does not work that is the first problem I had tried to turn it on, or set it to auto but it does not seem to be able to flash the light on at all so far under this build of the rom, I understand that these problems will be fix as the rom makes updates to the software.
Second thing is I tried to run the game called Subway Surf which displays a message saying it can't run, on the hardware it reads failure to initialize! Your hardware does not support this application, sorry! ,
The last version that worked on my hardware is 1.47.1 on 11 26 2015, the Christmas version displays an message saying it does not support my Samsung galaxy tablet 10.1 it has an failure to initialize! Your hardware does not support this application, sorry!. So I can't use the Christmas update. the app problem has to do with the update not the aosp version, sorry about that I downgrade the app and it runs again the last version to work on this hardware is 1.47.1 from 11 26 2015 .
this app was working under aosp-5.1.1-p4wifi-20151031 on the Subway surf version 1.47.1 from 11 26 2015, the Christmas update gets the message saying failure to initialize! Your hardware does not support this application, sorry
their is an bug when the tablet is shutdown and is pluged in charging the normal percentage numbers don't show up anymore since going to the 6.0 version, this bug I am guessing will also be fixed when a new build comes out. otherwise I have not yet found anymore problems that I can think of besides these 3 things during my trying the new build.
1. Camera hardware flash is not working at all on the build, so you can't really take night photo if you wanted to, their going to look dark with the flash option.
2. 3D video games like Subway Surf are broken and will not play. that one game called Fruit Ninja Free plays but it seems to slow down at times, making me think that its 3D related.
3. Kindle app had crashed on me opening ebooks a few times on aosp-6.0-p4wifi-20151211 build.
4. the charging icon when tablet is off, is missing its charging numbers that show the percentage of the charge, pluged into the usb port of the computer, have not tried the power plug but I am guessing it also would lack the numbers from this build.
5. it would be nice if kodi app could be made to work on our hardware , since you can install it from the play store, but you get an hardware message on your tablet saying its not supported has to do with no support for Tegra 2 based hardware.
weblink here, http://kodi.tv/download/ , their used to be an old version of xbmc app that worked on version that came before 5.1.1 before it changed its name, an port of it worked but crashed on 5.1.1 and maybe on 6.0 I think didn't test it on new version. our tablet needs a version that supports Tegra 2 support for kodi to run.
you can read these about why they say its not supported. so the builds that had Tegra 2 support under xbmc only worked with android before the 5.1.1 version, it always crashed under this version. not even sure anyway has an working version of kodi app that runs under this tablet, since I can't find unofficial support for it at all besides the forum links to the old xbmc app with Tegra 2 support that no longer runs with current android versions.
http://kodi.wiki/view/Android
anyway I hope reporting these helps the build so these things can get fixed for aosp 6.0 p4wifi models tablets. I can't seem to post under the topic page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-10-1/development/rom-android-6-0-marshmallow-t3266663
So that's why I am posting this here instead, So I hope they read this and can get at least the 3D games working in the next build if possible, otherwise I may want to go back to 5.1.1 until I can play games again on the tablet, I didn't try to see if the camera can take the pan scan mode photo yet with the google camera app, but not if that's working under 6.0 or not, but sometimes I do need the flash so that why I may downgrade my tablet until this gets fixed, but I hope future builds will get these things fixed I hope, its good a good job getting the rom working in the first place, but you know I can't really tell the difference between 5.1.1 and 6.0 they look almost alike just one can play the 3D games, and the other one needs work, its a good start it seems stable and that's also a good thing about the 6.0 version.
This is the one that I installed onto my tablet below
p4wifi: WIFI only tablet
aosp-6.0-p4wifi-20151211.zip
I was using [ROM][Unofficial][AOSP] Android 5.1.1 Lollipop on version aosp-5.1.1-p4wifi-20151031.zip
before I did a clean install of aosp-6.0-p4wifi-20151211.zip the camera flash I think was working with that version, so when I clean install the new one I think that's when the flash stoped working.
to my tablet, it does run ok besides these small problems and the Bluetooth sort of works if you turn it on, you can connect to an Bluetooth audio hardware, my sound bar works with 6.0 on connect to it, at least on my tablet that worked, but on reboot of the tablet it does disable Bluetooth by default.
