Hi,
First of all I just want to say thank you to all the good people at xda. I am very new to Android and I have found much more useful things on here than anywhere else.
I recently got a Milestone XT720. It was running on Dexters Froyo. It had a whole bunch of issues but most were fixed when I finally decided to try to flash a newer ROM (First time) and went with the CyanogenMod 6.3 RC3 thanks to a Tutorial from this forum.
The only issue that remains now is that whenever you press the power button to return from sleep to just check the time or notifications the music stutters for just a millisecond. And then does the same when going back to sleep again.
I have found that turning off the auto rotate screen option will stop the stutter but that's not really a solution as much as a bad compromise.
Does anyone else have the same issue? Could trying a different rom make a difference? I am really starting to warm up to the XT720 and would really appreciate if someone could help out with this!
Oh and possibly worth the mention is that I flashed the cyanogenmod over Dexters and did not go back to stock in between. I have also tried the supercharger script on aggressive without any luck.
Thanks all!

Music pause is common problem on our devices. AFAIK turning off the auto-rotation sensor is the only solution. I have tried several ROMS but it happens with all of them.

I updated to the latest version of the Mango beta (7712 i think) the other day and now whenever I turn on the screen it takes about half a second for the clock and date etc to appear. Anyone else have this issue or a solution?
A lot of people are noticing that behavior.
I think it's a bug.. but it doesn't happen all the time to me.
It's amazing how annoying just a little bit of lag is in this OS, isn't it?
Good to know im not alone. Ill put up with it as this is a beta. Everything else works perfectly
When I first "upgraded" from last month's mango to this months updated version, I noticed this too, but I also noticed that the homescreen "flash" was gone, which for me was a very acceptable trade off. I reset my phone to get my twitter and linkedin contacts to load, and since then my screen has reverted to the old form; that is, flashes the homescreen for a second before going to the lockscreen. Awful.
I thought that was just the new behaviour
It was one of the first thing I noticed after updating. I didn't think it was a bug, I just thought for some reason that was the new behaviour.
It definitely doesn't look as clean as the old way.
Yeah, I wasnt sure if it was a bug or a new feature as it seems to fade in after about half a second kind of like a transition effect.
Whatever it is I much prefered it the way it was before this second update as like people have said it just looks like really bad lag.
Mine seems to have sorted itself out. All ive done is turn it off for the night. Couldnt hurt to give it a go if its annoying you

it used to happen to me quite often when i was on 7712. Doesn't happen anymore on mango.. but there's still a buggy animation sometimes when i unlock too quickly, appears as a repeated top 1/4 of the lockscreen i think
i don't know why, but it's still happening. i tried to power of and on, but it didn't help. i don't want to do a hard reset. it seems that the problem is gone if the music is playing (when the mini player is displayed in lockscreen).
so, i figured out, when that locksreen lag is happening. if you have mini player shown, when you press volume buttons, that means there will be no lockscreen lag, and everything will be like it should.
but, if you go and play a video, and then go back to homescreen, there will be no mini player shown, when you press the volume button, and if you then turn off the screen, and then on again, the clock and calendar will display with some lag (about half a second). this will continue to happen until the next time you run audio player. then, if there is mini player in the dropdown volume menu, there will be no more lag in the lockscreen.
please, try this and see if this will happen to you too. i know it's a small bug, but it's really annoying!
Hi guys,
Got my Nexus S about a week ago and love it. I'm running Brainmaster's MIUI with Franco's Kernel.
The issue I'm having and have had since I was on stock kernel as well is that when I press the power button to go to the lockscreen if the phone was in standby sometimes the lockscreen responds straight away, sometimes it is unresponsive for a second and sometimes for several seconds. I've also had an issue once where a call came in and I couldn't answer, I had to turn the screen on and then off before I could answer the call. Btw I'm also running with min set to 400mhz.
Has anyone else had this issue or does anyone know if it is a known MIUI issue or if there's something I can do to make it work like normal?
Thanks.
I just rooted and installed CM10 Jelly Bean 4.1.2, everything works pretty well!! Fast, some stuff couldve been simpler for example the whole Home Screen setups and things like that it was much simpler with Ice Cream Sandwich, and all the programs dont have the settings button?! i configured it as long press home key.. but still, weird annoying issue, but wtv, i hope an update would come soon to fix these little details, but Im posting this because of the 3 following reasons, ESPECIALLY #1
Anyone else having this problem?
1: Dock icon disappears randomly (only 3 of them), always have to put them back in
2: Volume isnt as loud as it was originally... even after installing the Beat Audio Installer from Google Play...
3: The display's maximum brightness is as bright as it was as well, i dont know if thats just me but I really feel as if its dimmer.
I don't really mind 2 and 3, but the icons in the dock disappears is becoming extremely annoying... can anyone help me with this?
thx

This is the general forum. You should put your question in the Q & A forum or the CM10 thread.
I've been having camera issues with my Skyrocket for a while now. About 1/4 the times I start up my camera app, it will display what the camera is seeing, but none of the user interface is there. No option buttons, no focus rectangle - nothing. If I try to hit the back button, it lags out for a while and will usually (after 30+ seconds) tell me that the camera app is not responding. If I hit the Home button, it takes me back home, but opening the camera app again will still show the camera's view without the UI.
If I follow this guy's suggestion, it does work.
http://david.feinzeig.com/blog/2012...galaxy-s-ii-or-other-samsung-android-devices/
However, this process is tedious and time consuming, especially if this is happening 1/4 the times I use my camera. I use my camera a lot on my phone, and this has been a huge PITA. This might just be speculation on my part, but I don't recall having this issue before rooting my phone. I was hoping that by upgrading from Seanz ICS to [4.1.2] [UCLL3] Stock Debloat it would solve my problem, but unfortunately it hasn't.
Does anyone know of a more permanent way of preventing the camera app from crashing so frequently?
I just wanted to bump this one final time to see if anyone had any suggestions for me. I still have no clue why it's failing to boot the camera's UI sometimes, but it is extremely annoying and I would appreciate any help, suggestions, or even hypotheses at this point.

return to stock with odin and see if that cures it, wipe before and after returning to stock ics, if its still a prob then its hardware failure
edit: or an app that youre installing is interfering wth the camera, or sdcard issues
Download ICS Camera from the Play Store. Works great even when stock camera isn't. I don't know why.

I'll give those a shot and see what comes of it. Thank you for the help.
I flashed 5.0 onto my Nexus 5 a while back and have been loving it. But there is a MAJOR issue I have encountered.
If, from the lock screen, i swipe to open the camera (I use Google's camera app) then swipe on the charms and select video and press record... i can almost always reproduce an immediate forced reboot it makes me very sad.
I have tried wiping the system cache... i'm not sure what else to do...
any advice?
bumping... been playing around with my N5 more and more and still getting the issue.
I notice that it happens in other camera apps that can take videos as well. Not just google's official camera app.
Also, it does not have to be launched from the lock screen for it to occur. sigh.
there have been a few times where i can get it to successfully record a video... but i can't reproduce it all the time. MOST of the time it crashes my entire phone
Same here. Noticed they pushing 5.01 out... Maybe a fix. I've had every Nexus and early software is allways buggy, IMO
thanks so much for replying. just glad it's not only my phone, you know?
I think I found a workaround until google fixes it. and they better.
if you open the camera and switch it to video mode but BEFORE pressing record, if you toggle the thunderbolt (light) on and off at least once (doesn't matter if you leave it on or on afterwards), then start recording it SHOULD work without rebooting... at least it has so far.
Dont have the issue on mine, i have the ElemantalX kernel though but i dont think that makes a difference

I'm certainly not suggesting the issue doesn't exist, but I cannot reproduce this on my stock 5.0 installation.
That being said, there are seemingly lots of Lollipop bugs that some people get and others simply do not... in my experience that'll probably make them a little more time-consuming to fix.
Well, a little good news... I hope?
I did a flash to 5.0.1 stock and i can't reproduce it anymore. videos record perfectly fine.
now let's give it a week or so of me dicking around with various apps and settings and see how that goes

That's interesting - they must have changed something about the camera then.
I wasn't having the issue you described but I did occasionally get "cannot connect to camera".. fingers crossed it's sorted :good:
