[Q] Google Music Bug - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since last nights update to 3.2 i am getting a blinking screen when in Google music app. It just constantly blinks. i have about 7k sngs loaded onto Gmusic and never had any issues with tab or phone. Currently this issue only blinks on the tab. Still plays music but sometimes if i pull up an artist it won't seperate the albums.......
Is anyone else seeing this and is there any fix? Sorry if this has been addressed else where. I only have limited time at work to post this...

Did you try clearing cache and or data on your Google Music? I have no problems with a blinking screen but I do have album cover art issues... Hope it helps...

Cleared data. seems to be working for now.no blinks. thanks

I have had blinking occur when opening stock browser. It did go away after a few seconds.

I have this problem too! its like it keeps reloading the music ever 2 seconds and just flickers, if i clear the data/cache and force stop it, it'll work on the first open and then keep doing after until i clear and fore stop again.. anyone have a solution?

I am continuing to get this flickering problem.
The only way to correct it is as stated above- Clear data.
Than open app, it will work fine but than the next time i go into it the same issue- so have to clear data again.
Anyone else have this issue or come up with a permanent fix. Or any ideas...
Thanks, Still on Stock- not rooted fyi

[Q] Random issues.

I didn't think this would be a development thread so i'm starting it here. This is just some of the random issues I'm having.. and was wondering if anyone else was having these or any other issues.
The unknown notification on lockscreen is apparently for other people too.. and i've noticed it's dealing with the stock messaging app. Has anyone figured out how to turn off the counter on the stock launcher for the stock messaging app if you're using a different app like Handcent?
Random lockups. My phone will not come out of sleep.. or i won't be able to unlock it. nothing will be on the screen and i have to pull the battery in order to do anything.
random FC of an app.. or just not even notified of the FC just get this vibrate then double vibrate and everything crashes back to the home screen. First did it when i started setting up the device. and done it a few times since. I've also had one time that was continuous of "vibrate...double vibrate" over and over and over and over.. you get the picture.. and i had to pull the battery.
Is anyone else having these issues or anything similar? Or should I run back to the store and exchange this sucker?

No problems here at the moment, had it about a week and havent seen any of the problems you are mentioning. But this is just for me.
I get this hard crash (vibrate... double vibrate... soft reboot) at random times. It seems to be when I'm running several apps at once. For example, driving to work,I use (Google) Navigation and Doggcatcher for playing podcasts, while GPS and Bluetooth are both enabled.
These apps have been rock solid for me with the 5 other Android phones I've had. Besides, the crashes happen with other combinations of apps. Come to think of it, audio playback is usually (always?) involved, be it with Xiia or the stupid built-in music app.

that's what i've been noticing. but sometimes i'm not even running many apps. i haven't put much on the phone since i've been having these issues, but these apps work perfectly even on my G1. i think i'm just having odd issues with my phone pretty sure its getting exchanged on monday.
I hav the odd vibrating too...Not sure if I should return the phone or not.

i think the "odd vibrating" where its a single vibration.. then 2 quick vibrations.. is a sign of an FC.. not 100% sure.. but thats what i see going on when it happens to me. I've also noticed when i'm outside and thinks i'm selecting things or moving the trackball thing. always to the right.. i think my phone is faulty..

I like that it vibrate to tell you, but other people don't get that?Maybe mines is faulty too?

I get the double vibrate and bam, FC's. Usually when im trying to open up and or lots of stuff at once on my phone or using a different launcher "adw" or others and it would happen. Wheres the fix ey.
is anyone having a problem with notifications? i use GoSms, and it doesn't seem to sound the ringtone i have selected, the message just comes in silently..... and same with Beejive IM, and i think K9 mail. all these things worked perfectly on my EPIC 4G.
i was using handcent.. and it was working fine.. minus the unlock screen unknown notification. but everything else has been making sounds just fine.

Dang ok, well I may have to unroot mine if possible, and take it back, haha. So I'll be watching for a response to your question in the other thread.
Edit: I fixed my notifications..... somehow my notification volume had been turned all the way down, so I wasn't getting any sounds for texts, emails, etc. Not sure how it got turned down, but sometimes I guess settings can get jarred by various things we do to our phones.

Netflix and Hulu issues

Ive noticed an issue over the last few days on my Surface with Hulu and Netflix both. Both are closing about every 5 mins. It will show in recent apps and re-open and keep playing as it was. it is however getting somewhat annoying. I haven't found anything else mentioned elsewhere. Is anyone else having the same problem?
No issues

no issues with that either. You might try uninstalling and reinstalling the app? Maybe doublecheck your wifi connection? Just watched the daily show with no closing or issues here.
Hulu pauses a lot
I was having issues with Hulu pausing a lot during streaming. I don't use the app anymore, i just stream directly through IE and it works perfectly.
Just an update for all. I noticed using it this morning, while not touching any of the screen or the start button that it went back to start screen and the device vibrated like the button was hit. The behavior continued until this evening when the start button stopped working. Called up tech support and the guy had me go through a hard reset. To do this, hold down power (while the surface is on) for 30 secs. Then hit power to turn it back on. No data loss at all. Booted back up and the device is working properly now.

Cant dismiss Alarm?

Hello and pretty much as the title says for some reason I cannot dismiss my alarm. If I dismiss it it turns itself back on a few seconds and sometimes minutes later. I first noticed this on Blisspop but I have since clean wiped (including locally stored files) and put CM12 back on but oddly the problem is still occurring.
Has anybody else had this problem?
PS I did have a good google around but cannot seem to find something that related to my problem :\

I'm on Blisspop unofficial that include CAF kernel... And i don't facing that kind of problem...
Are you sure that you are dismiss it, instead of just snooze it?
Hello, definitely dismissing it. I decided to wipe every bit of info\data etc on the phone so that nothing is left, installed CM12 again, without GAPPS so that it cant pull any settings that might be stored on my google account and guess what? Even on a pretty much blank rom I am still getting the same issue :\. Now starting to think it could be hardware but it seems very unlikely.
I have been facing same problem. It comes back after I dismiss an upcoming alarm after turn off the screen and turn it back on, it comes back. Any suggestions?
Same issue on CM12.1 ROM I'm using. I dismiss the upcoming alarm, but most of the time it activates back.

No notification sounds? [FIXED]

Does anyone else have a problem with notification sounds/ringtones after the phone goes into deep sleep? Have to reboot to fix the issue .

Has happened here twice. Had to reboot to fix it. My worry is that this could happen during the night so that the phone won't wake me up in the morning (the alarms don't sound either - in fact no sound at all can be played, be it from ringer, notifications, Spotify or YouTube).
Hasn't occurred now for three days, but I've rebooted each day due to separate issue which involves not notifications not being received unless I open the app (happens in Facebook Messenger and Signal).

Unfortunately it's back
Was able to find out the cause... Was the hike app intefering with system sounds.
Once notifications start coming up without sound, clear away the hike app from recents.. should fix the issue... Atleast it did for me
I'm noticing the exact same issue. Sitting here WATCHING my phone ring and making no sound. What exactly is the "hike" app? Is that something you've installed or is it a native app? I don't think I have that on my phone so I'm looking for a solution.

Its a third party app like WhatsApp... I'm certain the issue you are facing is due to a third party app... Next time the sound stops, try clearing your recent apps... And see if that fixes the issue ...
I'm having the same issue and I do not have the hike app

It could as well be another third party app... Doesn't necessarily have to be hike..... Try and see if clearing your recent apps fixes the issue for you
What does clearing mean? Like delete my apps?

I am also running into this issue. Im still in the process of uninstalling apps one by one to narrow it down if it is an app thats causing it. Has anyone pin pointed what is causing this? Im almost ready to factory reset the phone and add the apps back one by one but I would rather not spend the time.

I had that same issue with certain apps. For me though, I didn't realize the extent of Data Saver and had to allow Gmail and whatnot to have unrestricted access and then they started popping in right away.
You wouldn't happen to use Data Saver on your phone?
Just a thought
Cheers!
I appear to have this issue however, safe mode, factory resetting, etc does not fix it. I do not get notification/phone/music sounds.
This issue is still there even after the 8.1 update... Anyone got it fixed?
For me the notifications won't make any sounds, they pop up but silently. I tried playing some music and the speaker works, I also didn't have any issue with alarms. Just notifications.

I have a Nexus 6P and my wife has a Pixel XL and we were both having the same issue with 8.1, no notification sound with text messages and call ring tone. I did most of the suggestions that I have found online (factory reset, clear cache/data in messaging app, change sound) but none of them worked. I was about to downgrade to 8.0 but I saw that both of the apps (messages and phone) were being "optimized". I disabled battery optimization on messages and phone, rebooted and so far it seems to have fixed it. My only guess is that they optimized those apps a little too much. Good luck.

I also noticed the issue on v8.1 that I flashed a few days ago. Thought it would have been fixed by now. Ended up downgrading to v7.1.2 again to fix the issue.
Oreo is NOT ready for prime time in my opinion.

In-app videos - sound out of sync?

Hi,
has anyone of you experienced the issue with the Youtube (or instagram) apps when playing videos? That sound is totally out of sync of the video, which is really annoying. It happens to me when the phone is not rebooted for a longer period of time (ie 2weeks or so).
Running stock 1.1.13

Wipe the cache partition. Only other thing that works is to power it off for a few minutes and back on (not a restart).

I thought it was just me. It's very annoying. Probably happens 75% of the time.
Conflicting apps?
I've got the same issue with my HTC U11, clearing the data and cache hasn't helped me, nor did a turn off - turn on.
I have fixed sync issues with other apps by ruling out widgets and other apps with continued activity on the home screen or notification bar.
Background processes originating from a downloaded app could also be a cause.
Happy to get some help!
