When playing back a recorded video on the One X, I sometimes find the video file to be corrupt and filled with artifacts (see attached picture).
There are no visible abnormalities while recording the video, you're made aware that what you just recorded is damaged once you see the thumbnail or try to play it.
I searched around the internet and didn't seem to find others who shared this problem.
Any suggestions on how to prevent this or what the cause is?
PS. Corrupt videos were all recorded in 1080 resolution
Are u on a nightly aosp/aokp or jb rom?

The phone is running on the stock OS.
It might be worth noting that there is plenty of storage space available in the phone.
First thing I would try is booting up the phone into safemode, and try again. That will tell us if it is a 3rd party app possibly causing it.
Next, do a factory reset to bring it back to original and test again(just good measure)
Next, I would download and install the correct ruu for the device and run it.
If that didn't work I would return the phone to carrier or manufacturer via a overhand right thru the closest window for replacement or repair:beer:

Is it always happen? What is your rom code?

I'm trying to figure out if there is something wrong with my TF or if this is normal?
I've tried both uPnplay and skifta to watch shows that I have recorded on my windows media Center 7 computer. When I choose a show to watch I have issues with quality. I've tried moboplay, vplayer, but no luck.
Moboplay does the best job at video quality, but I lose the sound after about 10 seconds. If I stop the show and restart I get sound for another 10 seconds.
mx videoplayer plays, but the picture is pixelating and the sound is breaking up. I've tried different setting, but then it run in slow motion.
If there something wrong with my TF or is this what you guys are getting?
I just bought my transformer a couple days ago. I haven't had any issues similiar to that yet. I have mobo and have no sound issues. Are you rooted, romed, or have downloaded an OTA update?
Good question. I have all the latest updates 3.2 and I am running stock. I am not rooted. Just running orig stock. I'm still getting up the courage to root my device.
Because u are having issues with it,my advice is don't root it just yet. And if u just purchased it, wait it out and see if it fixes itself. (Not likely though) if it doesn't then exchange it before the return expiration date. If you are outside of that window, then wait it out some more and if not, do a warranty exchange. If there was a reliable safe way to wipe it and reflash the stock rom, I would suggest that first. But from the look of things as of this date, I wouldn't try it.

thanks, I'm trying to get a sanity check. Can anyone verify they are using skifta or upnplay and windows media center without issues? I can play local files without issues. So I think the issue may not be with my TF. Feedback would be appreciated.
Noticed this on my GF's phone the other day, moved some pictures from one folder to another and they no longer show up in the gallery at all...the pictures that were in the second folder still show up, but nothing else.
I factory reset my phone today but copied my DCIM folder to my computer first, did the reset, and copied it back over. Now only videos show up in my gallery, none of the 200+ photos. I can take a picture and it shows up in the same folder were my pictures are, but only that new one shows up in the gallery.
Create a new folder and move them over you say? Ya...did that, still doesn't show up. I have restarted the phone and tried running Rescan Media app...neither seems to work.
Kind of the same issue with Carbon Backup App. None of my backups show being there, but if I backup something new, it dumps it in the same folder and shows up on Carbon, but not the others.
I thought about running an Error Checker using the computer, but the phone now shows up as a Portable Device, not Removable Storage like before so I can't as far as I know...
Update: I have tried clearing data on Gallery, doesn't help. Took new picture, moved that picture to another folder and check gallery and it's gone, won't show up at all. Put it back...still no dice.
Any thoughts? Anyone else able to reproduce this issue?
Okay, pulled all my pictures off my phone and onto my computer. Selected all photos, went to File>Properties, Click Details tab, Click "Remove Properties and Personal Information", hit okay on the next popup. Wait for it to do it's thing. Once done, selected all the copies and moved them back to my phone. Presto! They are all there! If I move one to another folder, either cut or copy, it won't show up. Once they are written to the phone, they have to stay where they are.
Tried to do the same with Carbon files but didn't work. Going to play with that some more...

Would I need to do that even though I have already done a Factory Reset?
Also please note I am not rooted, 100% stock.

Hi guys and girls.
I went on a night out last night and took a few pictures and a video, however for some reason my phone wont open all of the images. only half seem ok, for some unknown reason. the ones that are ok where taken after the ones that wont open.
Seems to be corrupted as windows doesn't open the jpeg file neither.

thankyou

Hi,
Try to reset your phone and try again. It might work.
Otherwise, copy the pictures and try to open it on your computer.
tl;dr: I cannot save pictures or screenshots on my phone, as well as a few other small quirks, can someone help?
Hello XDA, I've just recently encountered a strange issue with my Nexus 5 and I was hoping one of you might be able to help me out. I'd like to have screenshots to break up the text wall, but due to the nature of my issue, that's out of the question.
So my big problem started about two days ago, when I wanted to flash the omnirom nightly (1/27 to be exact) to my phone.
While doing the factory reset before flashing the rom, TWRP got stuck (and I'm talking about 10 minutes) formatting /data not including internal media. I was left with no choice but to hold volume down and power and hope for the best. This is what I bet screwed things up. After that I tried again, and the formatting worked, and omnirom booted, but with the error message of something about device UIDs being inconsistent and recommending I format my data partition.
Well since the rom was a nightly, I felt like ignoring the message, but I did notice issues: I could install and uninstall apps, but none of them could really access the internal storage (for example, any attempts to save a picture, like through chrome, would fail. I also couldn't restore from titanium backup. Connecting to my pc would not display my files).
Dismayed, I obeyed the message and did a full wipe of the data partition and tried again (not just the factory reset one, but the full wipe of /data, and don't worry, I could still backup using ADB pull so I haven't lost anything). This caused the UID error message to go away but I still had issues-not as bad as before-but still issues. Titanium backup worked, so I used that to restore successfully, but I couldn't make new backups. I was frustrated and blamed my issues on using a nightly so I did another full reset and went back to stock.
Now, I wasn't given another UID message, and ALMOST everything works, but I am left with the issue that is the reason I post this thread. I can't take pictures, video, or screenshots and a select few apps fail to recognize the internal sd card (reddit sync, for example, will fail to save pictures when I try to download them, but other apps, like chrome, will succeed to do so, so it is a non-issue. I could also connect to pc again, yay!).
The camera (app and hardware) will still work, and I can tell it takes the picture because the little thumbnail that slides to the side after taking a picture appears. It just fails to save the picture. When I swipe to view the picture, it shows up only as a dark gray box. If I view it in the photos app, I am greeted with the message "media not found." When I try to take videos, Camera will force close the moment I press record.
I've tried a few things, like clearing the camera's data, but that was unsuccessful. Different camera apps (I tried Focal) result in the same problem. Using the Root File Browser app, I also made sure that permissions weren't locking access to that folder. I've also tried deleting the DCIM folder by connecting to PC and then taking another picture, but that still did nothing.
I don't know what else I could do besides another /data format, but I already did that and I don't feel like another format would really do anything since I already did one. I'm left with little that I could think would fix this, but I'm sure someone here could help me.
It is late now and I have school in the morning, so I'll check back on this thread in about 16 or so hours when I'm done with that. Then if anyone has a potential fix, I could try it. If I don't see a fix, I could post a video describing my problem or any more information you might find useful. Thank you all and goodnight.

I would flash the stock image again to solve your problem, backup files first. Here is a tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2513701.

Thank you, it worked! Camera is saving pictures again and nothing is acting up. And it all was way less painful than I thought it would be
Device is locked and never been rooted. Took the 5.1.1 update and apps like Netflix and HBO GO fail unerringly after 1-5 minutes of streaming.
Somethings...
-Neither app actually crashes to the desktop. It crashes to the apps main menu.
-Both apps attempt to "redraw" (3-4 times in quick succession) after the player fails, then I can usually reload the video.
I have...
-Cleared data/cache
-uninstall/reinstall the apps
-did a full factory reset
ANY thoughts would be really appreciated. Not having much like finding any resolution here. Thx in advance
I have the same problem. I have flashed the latest firmware with Kies and Odin to make sure there were not issues and still Netflix stops playing as does Youtube, Plex etc...
I have spent around 8 hours trying to find a fix to no avail. I made sure that Display > Smart screen options were disabled. In developer options I checked Force GPU rendering and Turn off hardware overlays. I also tried and unending list of other settings to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks Chris

Go in to About Device in Settings. Does your status show "custom?" If it does, remove your SD card and transfer the files on it to your PC. Reformat the card on your Note and afterwards put the files back on it. There's a strange SD card glitch that occasionally causes the system status to show custom when it's not.

No my Device Status is Official. I tried using a different launcher "Google Now" hoping that a more simple launcher might clear things up but no luck. Netflix stops playing after a couple of minutes and youtube pauses. I want to be clear Netflix does not crash it just goes back to the menu where I can hit play again.
This fixed my tablet!
I may have found a fix. At least this fixed the issue for me.
The Back Story: (for you to compare similarities in device errors)
I have been having the same which started after the update. and my tablet has never been rooted either. I chatted with Samsung several times. They acted like this has never happened before and they kept saying it might be a bad wifi antenna. Which sounded like BS since I was able to surf the web and even watch youtube through chrome no problem. If I tried to watch videos on youtube, netflix, vudu it would reset as you mentioned. I even noticed that when I was using Polaris word it would erase everthying I had written randonmly. Samsung also tried to say it could be the app itself. Which I instantly doubted since the apps are made by different companies. I did the factory reset. I even took the tablet to Best Buy to have them do a system re-flash with no luck. I almost sent the tablet to samsung to have them try to fix it, but I had a feeling it was something easy to fix and I could save myself money.
THE FIX:........ I have no clue why this worked. If anyone knows why it worked I sure wouldn't mind hearing your thought!
1. Pop the sim card out.
2. Try playing videos on your apps. (Be sure to check a couple apps) It worked like a charm for me. I dont think I had to reboot to get it to work, but the fix stays after a reboot.
3. What you do not want to do is put the sim card back in because you will have the issue again.
- If you do put the card back in dont worry. You can simply remove it again and it will work again.
One thing to keep in mind.....I stopped my subscription on my verizon data plan. So it doesn't matter to me if the sim card is in. So If you still use Verizon Data plan and this fix worked then you should contact Verizon and let them know whats going on. Maybe you just need a new Sim Card. Like I said I don't know why it worked, but it did. I had data turned off completely so my device shouldn't have been trying to use anything other than wifi.
Please let me know if this works for you as well!
Thanks are always welcome!

It Worked!!!
Thanks very much for the suggestion. As it turns out the tablet came to me with a sim card in it. I never intended on using it with Verizon so I did not look. Once I removed the inactive sim card everything worked great.
Thanks again I really appreciate the help.
