I noticed a week or two ago that Advertisements appeared between the first and second posts of a thread. No problem there... it's a great site and the people that run it should obviously get some ad revenue for their efforts.
However today, whenever I load a thread, it pulls up the first post, then pauses, displaying in lower lefthand corner "waiting for googleleads.g.doubleclick.net"
The pause lasts between 5-30 seconds. During that period, I cannot see anything past the first post in the thread.
Has anyone else seen this?
Working ok here. It is most likely an issue that can happen from time to time depending on the server load.
Use an ad blocker like Ad Muncher.

I bought the tf700 about a month and a half ago after waiting close to 9 months for it. Unfortunately I am experiencing some problems, but I am not sure if the tablet is defective or I'm doing (maybe not doing) something to cause these issues. I have noticed people on other threads are experiencing some of the same issues, but not all of them. The problems include:
*browser constantly crashing/closing
*having to touch the screen multiple times for it to respond
*some websites or appls reloading/flashing multiple times while trying to scroll or type something
*while trying to type, the cursor moving around, jumping to the front of words or deleting words
*taking quite a while for webpages to load
*screen freezes
I really hope that these are problems tat can be fixed because I anticipated this tablet for so long. I find myself frequenly just giving up and switching to my desktop for faster results because it is extremely annoying trying to google something and the page closing or have to retype words in mulitple times because they get erased while typing. I have given up on trying to use the facebook app because the page gets all jumbled up or freezes constantly.
Please give me any advice or suggestion to how to fix these problems or do I just own a defective device?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
perform a hard reset and see if that helps. it won't erase anything so no worries.
power down tablet
hold power and vol down until you get to a boot screen
let go and just let it boot the rest of the way
and if you're using the dock, turn off the touchpad when you type. i find that i always hit it which is why my cursor jumped around. not sure if it's the same thing you're seeing.
Thank you! I am going to try that right now!!!! I dont have the keyboard dock =( so maybe I am hitting the screen or something but I have tried to type letter by letter before and sometimes it happens then too. AHH
Hard reset in prgoress..
the issue with the browser closing seems to be an android issue right now and not exclusive to the tf700. I've seen threads complaining about the same browser closing issues on other devices and have seen it myself on my phone as well as the infinity. It doesn't seem to be isolated to one browser either.

I Rooted CleanRom Inheritance 3.4.6-10.4.4.25/US ODEX and about an hour after I got a screen pop-up asking me what prog I wanted to use. I had no idea what was going on in the background to require it. I kept randomly getting them and got pissed so I selected a file manager. Sure enough, there were pics of whatever I had on the screen.
Any ideas what would be causing this?
While it isn't critical it sure is annoying.
Yep I have searched the thread to no avail. Did I miss it?
**Critical info**
I have disabled the "recently used" long press function in the ASUS Customized setting area. I can use the pwr/down vol to take one.
There is nothing on the top of my tablet to cause it by inadvertently pressing the buttons.
It happens randomly regardless of what I am doing and regardless of whether or not I am docked (I have the ASUS OEM dock).
Thanks all,

Have you by chance installed any rogue apps? Making intermittent screenshots is a known feature of malware hoping to catch your login details for websites and bank accounts and so on. I'm definitely not saying this is what is going on on your 700, but it might just be the case. Standing in your shoes, I'd wipe completely clean and start over. I do that for my Flashing OCD every once in a while anyway.
Hmm..
It would appear that Lookout had some sort of virus. I DL'd it from Google Play and it immediately popped the "choose application" screen with this:
I found this great free app called Lookout. You should download it for your phone! xxxx://bit.ly/XxXXXx (I deleted the URL info to prevent someone from clicking it)
Went with Avast now.
So...wtf? Is there a virus/bug out there that modifies Lookout?
@Marty
Thx man. I followed your advice and was able to find it that way. When I reDL'd it popped the notification and I used Evernote to figure it out.
Lndcrsn
Well, more info...
It is still happening but, only when docked on the keyboard.
It happens randomly still and, happens when the tab (docked) sits for a while. The "select prog for..." screen pops up and I select evernote to verify.
It wouldn't still happen with a complete wipe and reinstall would it?
Has anyone else had this happen with CR.I.?
hmm...

I'm having a quite annoying and weird issue.
I imagine it'll be good to know that I use Chrome.
Every time I reply to a topic (Now that I think of it, it may not be every time, but say at least 90% of the time, probably more), I get the error message below. This does not seem to happen when I post new threads.
This forum requires that you wait 20 seconds between posts. Please try again in 19 seconds.
Thing is, it does post my post perfectly fine. It's as if it tries to do it twice, and the second one gets denied because, well, the first one went through and is posted. I thought it was just a small hickup on my end at first, but its been doing this for days now.
Edit: Another, probably related, issue. When I edit posts it gets stuck with the "loading" cursor. Chrome runs fine other than XDA, and nothing crashes. It just loads until infinity. If I just hit back, or navigate back to the same place I was posting, my post is there. It's as if the redirect just fails.
The reason I am posting this here, despite it most likely being a Chrome-issue, is that I only experience issues on XDA. Nowhere else do I have problems at all.
Any ideas?
I have a new Edge and like it very much. One thing is annoying though. Every time I boot up I get a long list of apps showing which are allowed to display over other apps and which are not. I don't need to see this every time I start my phone. I have contacted Motorola support multiple times and searched the net for a way to stop this list from appearing, but haven't found a solution. I admit this isn't the end of the world, but if anyone knows how to stop this unnecessary list from appearing I'd like to know.
Thanks
I posted this under Motorola Edge Questions, but it may be an Android 11 question so I'm posting it here as well. If I'm posting incorrectly just tell me and I'll try to get it right.
