Uitzending Gemist (Dutch app) keeps freezing

I've tried the TF700 in the local MediaMarkt and the first app I installed was "Uitzending Gemist". It's a Dutch app to view television shows.
Unfortunately it kept freezing, both during startup and while actually using the app. It continously gave me the "application is not responding" popup.
As you can imagine this was a pretty horrible first experience, and I decided to not buy the tablet yet.
Is this issue caused by the IO problems, and do other apps suffer from it as well? Anyone else tried to use this app on the TF700?
Also, is the problem just as severe on the TF300?

I have the TF700 for a week now and 'uitzending gemist' was one of the first apps I installed. It runs quite good and I have not experienced any problems.
The problems you have seen are probably due to a bad network connection.

That seems extremely unlikely, I'm not talking about watching videos or anything. The home screen of the app doesn't even load before I get a freeze with the "Uitzending Gemist is not responding" message.
Good news that you don't seem to have the issues though..

Well, my experience on other devices is that the app tends to crash when a wireless network connection is not stable. Just tried it here by moving away from my access point and the app again has problems, but in my opinion the TF700 is not to blame.

Hi Tom, only now have had the opportunity (and energy ) to give the app a run, and I do not experience any issues with it. Starts up fast, runs nicely. OK, granted, on my mobile data, video is just plain crap, but I was testing aboard a train, so it might have had something to do with the cell tower changing or something. I do not know what the issues was, of course, but I'm at least not having issues with the app. (Haven't had this installed for ages, as I do not watch television -- I already have a severe shortage of hours in my day ).

Ok, that's good to hear! Sounds like the MM unit was borked. Not a very good way to sell a product hehe.
Thanks!

Drive link available via Samsung

Does anyone think the app will work on our phone? Looks like it's released for the international version.

I just installed this. Seems to work just fine. Good looking, as far as Car Mode apps go, but perhaps not as powerful. Still, I think that I'll be using it a lot. Also, it seems to expect TouchWiz apps, so don't be surprised if it doesn't work right on an AOSP rom.

Looks good, but it would be nice if you could add extra apps to have access to in the interface. Of course, I doubt that will happen because it's designed to work with mirrorlink and follows some safety precautions.
Think I'll stick with Google CarHome.

I have it working on myphone running stock not rooted (yet) but weather dont work and i thought it was supposed to read your email? i installed for that but I don't think thats the case.

I used it on my drive home yesterday afternoon and found that the weather wasn't working for me either. Seems that it is too dumb to recognize the location services enabled on the phone, or maybe it just doesn't like Verizon. Still, even with GPS enabled and locked it couldn't figure it out. I suppose that's why they haven't released a NA version yet. Hopefully they just release it and don't let the carriers get involved. Also, I don't have a car with Mirror link so I don't know if that's working or not.

I too have noticed the the weather as well as temp controls were not functional. I also came across some functionality issues with adding shortcuts within the app. While the overall look is nice it just feels incompatible with our Verizon SGS3's. \
After a little searching I found and side loaded the google Car Home app and am blown away by how smooth it is by comparison. Bonus for being transparent and showing my live wallpaper, it's the little things that matter sometimes. :good:

Same with AT&T S3.
BTW which google car home app?

Car Home from Google
I got them on XDA somewhere a while back pulled for another phone. They work fine on the GS3.
See Attached.

So I don't know if it is because I was still connected to WiFi in my driveway or because I've rebooted the phone once or twice since installing the Drive Link app, but this morning on my way to the airport Drive Link had both location and weather. Furthermore, where I had previously been seeing some weird data icon in the pseudo status bar (H+?), today I saw a normal 4G icon. I didn't notice it updating the location as I went (i.e. the weather stayed stuck at my departure location), but it's entirely possible that I didn't notice as a function of being tired. Regardless, it seems that this app actually works! Can someone try rebooting and/or enabling GPS outside while still connected to WiFi to confirm/narrow down what needs to happen to get this app working?

This is most likly because you were still connected to the wifi network and it downloaded the data once you got a lock. When I plug mine into the car it disables my 3G as it thinks I'm USB tethering to a PC because thats where the data for Mirroring travels through. That should be fixed with the US release.

HBO GO app with time warner

Hey, I just came over from ATT to Verizon but I kept with the sgs3 however I'm trying to use my HBO go app to watch HBO and it won't let me choose time warner as a provided... it keeps giving me an error but I was just watching HBO go on my ATT sgs3 like 30 mins ago. I have uninstalled reinstalled rebooted...anyone have any ideas? Please, thank you.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

I've never used HBO GO, but just installed and was able to choose Time Warner Cable as my provider. Switched to my actual provider and signed in without a hitch.
Sorry, I can't seem to replicate that issue here - but, it does actually seem to allow Time Warner logins on Verizon phones.
I did all this while connected to WiFi, if that makes a difference.

The app is not working too well with Verizon, it's kind of working today, but not the next day, very frustrating. We just have to wait until they fixed the stupid app.

Well thank you both very much for the response I guess I'll just keep trying.

Is this problem only happening on the Verizon network, then? Have you tried watching/registering over WiFi as a test?
I just checked and HBO GO has Settings -> Preferences with an option on how to connect for Video Playback, for example. The default for me said "Wi-Fi Only" and it went back to that setting even after I told it to also use the phone network last night. Hm . . .
EDIT: Just set the Video Playback value to also use the phone network (which they list as "3G", even though my connection is 4G) and it played back "X-Men: First Class" without a problem.

Okay, this is interesting. I would never think that carriers would have an impact on an app working on the same devices, but it seems to be the case. When I first got my device, stock unrooted, hbo go would not work, opening the app up it would say not compatible with device, but yet I was allowed to download from the play store!? You tell me?
Now running custom roms with all vzw crap frozen, it works just fine. And YES, Time Warner Cable is an option.
So it breaks my f***ing heart to yet again give a big old FU to Verizon and their borderline Apple antics. Wtf vzw, we pay you well to bend us over any time you can. And I said I'd never grow up to be a Whore, thanks Verizon....

That's really weird, as I was testing after seeing this thread and HBO GO installed from the Play store fine, configured with my (non-Time Warner provider) fine and streamed fine. I'm pure stock, having rooted and unrooted a few times for specific needs.
Maybe HBO GO has since been unblocked by Verizon since the OTA, assuming it was blocked before?

Strange thing is I got it working. All I did was make my friends vzw phone a not spot and then connected to it. The all then allowed me to login and now that I'm already logged in I can use the network to actually watch the shows now... did the same thing to get watchespn working...very strange.

Slow Wifi?? anyone else?

Im getting terrible slow wifi speeds, and my notifications are extremely delayed compared to my other phones. we are talking 1-2 mins. anyone else experiencing this?

I have slow wifi speeds when I attempt to browse/download on the Google Play Store. It is UNBEARABLE.
I've been trying to find a solution but all I can seen to find is some info on changing DNS settings. Tried switching over to Google & OpenDNS and while that did increase the speed a little it wasn't much. The speeds are still slow.
There is an app you can download to help with the DNS settings but you have to root your phone first, and I really don't want to do that but I'm getting desperate.

Excuse me for being phone illiterate, but how do I go about performing a factory restore?

I've also just done a posted about this issue, Switch on GPS and see if you get better speeds could be a possible software bug.

Same here. New Nexus 5, wifi downloads from Play Store are PAINfully slow. Switch to LTE and they blaze. Did a Speedtest from my desktop, 22Mbit/s down....something is throttling our downloads over wifi!

No issues here. For the most part, I get the 50Mbps that Comcast provides me over Wi-Fi and, FWIW, my Location mode is set for Battery saving. You might want to try updating the firmware on your wireless router/access point. Cheers.

3-4 times slower than S3
Please don't say wifi on your N5 is super fast without comparing to other phone.
Download on mine is about 3-4 times slower than on S3 (proof is attached. tested from about 30-40ft away and a couple of walls. N5 was restored prior to testing and speedtest was the ONLY app downloaded from play store)
I don't know if my 5yr old 2.4 routers don't play nice with N5
Device is on 4.4.2. Didn't test it with 4.4.0.
Again, please don't just say how fast your device is. It may be super fast if you are 3" away from your router. You have to compare it!

If my Wi-Fi has been on for a while sometimes I get like .5 Mbps down while another phone can be pulling 15. Random disconnects for me also. A reboot solves it for a couple of hours...

Try updating the firmware on your routers. My N5 is in the basement and my wireless access point is upstairs and I still get the 50Mbps that Comcast provides me over Wi-Fi.

But why would Galaxy S3 be faster than N5?
Are you saying N5 is expecting something different from the router, while S3 is happy with it?
My routers are old, even if there's a firmware update... it may still be an issue issue when other routers are used...like free xfinity internet that's available throughout the city.. (unless of course all other routers are newer\better than mine and will support N5 just as well as S3).
It'd be nice if you someone could test N5 and some other device from farther away, where you don't get the maximum speed

It’s possible. It is more likely a firmware update will improve things versus making them worse.

My wireless access point (WAP) upstairs is at least 30 feet away with a ceiling separating it as well. The N5 often displays two bars in this case and I still get the 50Mbps that Comcast provides me over Wi-Fi. That said, you will be unable to do 50Mbps on 11g—at minimum you’ll need an 11n or better WAP.

I have an Asus rt n66u running the latest firmware. Tried tweaking settings as suggested in another thread. I think I remember another thread saying something about 2 n5s on the same network messed things up. I separated my 2 n5s. 1 on 2.4 GHz and the intuit in 5ghz. Seems to help so far

Getting New Nexus 5 replacement
Had terrible issues with internet speeds and wifi as well.While running new KK 4.4.2 Kept getting foreclosing on Youtube and while viewing videos online both OTA and on Wifi.
Then aweful loading speeds and lag with error message about having issues giving me the option to close report or wait.
Called Google and they are shipping me out a new One . Already went out. They said I had a Hardware issue.
I hope my new N5 Kicks Ass as it was designed to do.

Wifi was a nightmare until I switched it to the 2.4 GHz band. Now it's pretty speedy.

YES !!! My router is a DLink 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz and is working awesome.

Wireless, 4g, etc

Anyone elses wireless keep dropping as soon as you try to connect to something? I've factory reset 3 times now to try and see if it fixes it -no go. As soon as I try and download/run a speed test it disconnects.
g3/g4/note 5/ipad all connect fine with no issue, as well as 4 chromecasts.
On the other note, Android Pay launched and let me add cards to it.

I got no issues with connecting to wireless other then it disconnects sometime when phone is asleep.
How did you get android pay to work ? It launches for me but it doesn't let me add any cards.

No issues with mine... Have you tried restarting your router and then, your phone?

Indeed, connectivity cycles when you are on the initial setup program as well, bluetooth, nfc and wireless both go in and out (icons for bluetooth and nfc go on and off, wireless drops completely). Quite annoying. Already got a return going with Amazon, sucks since I just got it this morning.

Wow. I have absolutely no connection problems at all. I would be hollering loudly here if that were the case. I'm on WiFi at home right now no problem but post on my breaks from work from LTE with no problem. I've had no issues at all. I would consider an exchange perhaps.

Yeap, it was sent back on Tuesday. I just ordered a grey one as they came in stock on Amazon, hoping to get it Monday. I honestly likes what I saw with the phone, I havent been happy with any phones this year so far. Had a s6, g4, note 5, flex 2, mulitple nexus 6's (all with screen issues or backplate issues), iphone 6 etc. Hopefully this is the one, that helio x10 was pretty damn quick in it.

Hope that grey one arrives soon! People have been waiting for them. I really like this phone and am doing well with it after frustrations with dual SIM slots on the Zenfone 2 that involved getting a refurbished exchange unit sent to me, turned out all to be the 2G slot being the issue so it was returned. weeks of frustrations! So here's to good fortune!

take sim card out and put it in Sim 2 ... getting data will be a little trick - for some reason I always have to go in setting and enable data - it won't enable automatically... but i think it will help ...
You can either keep it in Sim 2 or move it back to sim 1...
