Suppose you are using default file explorer or any other one from market and you have a list of files like images/videos....try opening one of them! Screen gets dim and nothing happens!
It's stupid!
Hrm, doesn't seem to be the case for me. I'm able to open all media types from file browser on 3.2
Same for me, update seems ok so far, and it's nice to finally have battery usage.

Take your transformer out of the dock, rotate 90 degrees, then back. Everything should work now.
Seem to be the problem with "default apps": http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1191106

This worked for me! But it is funny as I should undock each time I want to use file explorer ( after each restart! )
Anybody reporting this to Asus?

A little reading would go a long way. This was reported earlier and solved earlier. It should be fine once you correct the issue...

Thanks for your comment. As I noticed it is not resolved. To take dock out each time after restart is not that convenient.

Hmmm... Mine works fine now after the fix... Have you tried clearing the defaults on your players?
I don't have htis problem after the update, worked the same in File Browser HD
Works fine for me. This seems like a bogus warning.
Please update your topic so everyone is not frightened by the update. If there is a work around, no need for the "Do not update! Big bug"

Mea Culpa. You are indeed right. I missed the restart action in your post. Once I restarted, it needs the fix applied again. Back to the drawing board!

I understand it may frighten users and I changed topic. However, it is a real serious bug!
Somebody in a thread below said after a reboot with it docked the problem comes back and you have to undock it again. What's odd though is I wonder why this only affects some peeps? I have mine in the dock always and have had it in there through the whole update and after and have NOT had this issue and even have done a couple reboots since. And I have an old ass B30 or something dock and tablet.

But it is only a bug for certain configurations. Others seem to not have any issue. I watched 2 movies after installing the update. It could be specific to the type of files you watch or how you encoded them.

Mine seems to be fine... Mine defaults to moboplayer and I used the built in file manager to open my video files...

No idea why it hits some. I had my dock throughout update connected and even hard reset it after. I just sent message to Asus support and also tweeted them.
The bug comes back each time i start my TF. So i have to rotate it everytime in order to have it work. Annoying. Asus, come on. You gotta be kidding.
I have tried a few things including uninstalling my RockPlayer app to see if this fixed it but no luck... The issue comes back after each restart. I hope there is something we are missing. It only happens for a few of us so it must be the individual configurations... I can set the default to my preferred player for my videos but it still affects other apps/programs that need the "complete action using" dialog box...
*EDIT*
This is wierd, I went back to reinstall my Rockplayer from the Market and it gave me a agreement message like it is the first time I have used it... Now Movies show up in my Market tabs next to Apps/Books. I could swear it wasn't there yesterday after the update??? Anyone else?
Title says it all. After installing the OTA, chrome browser hangs after about 30-60 seconds. Tabs can't switch and pages don't load. I have tried wiping the phone and the problem persists.
Go to app manager and clear the data and cache for chrome and see if that works if not try uninstalling the app and reinstall again from the play store

Already tried that. I even went into recovery and did a "clear storage" to reset my phone. Same thing, chrome not working.

Me too, no issues.
I am stock, and not rooted. I would like to hear from someone else in the same boat. I can't imagine it's just me.
I have the same issue. Sites won't refresh, it will just get stuck at about 20% progress. Opening a new tab doesn't work because it's a blank tab and won't even show my favorites. Lastly, it won't let me close a tab because it's stuck in full screen view rather then backing out to the preview tabs.....

I have always wondered why people like Chrome on Android. Chrome on Widows kicks ass, but on Android I find it lacking. The swiping to change tabs is about the only useful feature it has, but the touch zones at the edges of the screen are too narrow to make it unusable, at least with a TPU case. No reading mode, no full screen either. I also have Chrome installed out of curiosity, but am ready to dump it. The ability to transparently see the same tabs on the desktop and phone is just not enough of a benefit for me.
Chrome was rock solid on 1.85, but on 2.20 it freezes every time I open a second tab, requiring a soft reset.
Same issues as the rest of you all but my stock browser is freezing as well but that may have been due to my wifi
I just tried a fresh install of Chrome on my HOX with 2.2 OTA. Never had it installed before, so, there should be no oddities with old files.
I can confirm that when opening a 2nd tab and trying to go to a site, the browser hangs.
Personally, I use ICS browser. Much faster and sleeker than anything else out there, imo.

Same issues here. Haven't found any solution yet. I did find this though:
https://support.google.com/chrome/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=known_issues.cs
Under "Site display issues" > "Pages are blank, distorted, or flickering on my HTC..."
Their "workaround" doesn't work for me though. Looks like we might just have to wait for a system update...(if you're on stock that is)

Not sure what the issue is, but I dumped Chrome after being enamored with it. Felt like it was slower, using more battery, and constantly refreshing. Oh, and took up huge amount of resources. Switched back to Opera, playing with Firefox Beta. Much smoother.

I came to this board to see if anyone else was experiencing this! Yes, I am experiencing it too and it sucks, chrome is basically unusable. I have cleared the cache, data, uninstalled, etc.
Unfortunately, I am on stock rom/unrooted (just recently bought it and updated before checking the dev boards, whoops! hopefully some awesome dev figures out 2.20 soon). In the brief time I used 1.85, I did not experience this problem, maybe at&t f***ed it up. hopefully chromium gets an update, or better yet, bring on jelly bean, HTC!
The latest Sept 12 chrome update still does not fix this problem. Dolphin beta and stock browser working good.

Count me in with the issue. Had it on 2 different HTC One XLs.
Hi, I am new on forum and on Nexus S, but not with ROMS
I love this phone, but since I bought it, I have a strange bug. Maybe it appears because I did with "rom toolbox pro" a full backup of apps on another smartphone (acer liquid metal) and now I restored all apps on Nexus S.
this is the bug: sometimes (normally when I'm writing a message, or simply using virtual keyboard) it appear the "open as..." window, where I can choose to open it with gosms pro or gmail.
I tried to open it with both programs, and after this window, on gosmspro the text message is about the bug report, with 2 attached files: 1 .txt files with description of bug (but it's too long, approx 4 mb of .txt!!!) and 2 a .jpg screenshot of bug (but in the image there is simply the lock screen).
In gmail it appears the same thing. But I can't understand where is the problem or where the bug starts, so I ask you how can I find it.
I tried also to uninstall some apps (like gosms, also deleting app data) but without progresses.
If you like it, i can post the screenshot of the bug, or also the .txt or .jpg files in the bug report.
Now I'm using the CM10 , and I had the same problem with Skank ROM.
Please help me, I never found an answer on the web to this tiresome bug. : /
thanks guys and thanks for your BIG work !!!

Wipe data and start fresh. That's what you get for backing up apps. Bugs.

Absolutely. But from experience, it's a good idea to wipe clean once in a while. I usually do it every few months to keep the problems at bay. Sometimes you'll spend more time trying to fix an issue than it would take you to restart from anew, and even if you end up fixing it that's only an issue you see. You aren't fixing udnerlying problems...
So does anything actually crash or is it just this that pops up?

uhm, at the beginning i had 5-6 crashes, but I'm sure that it was linked to the overclock. In fact, when I put 1200 mhz, I was a noobie in that (because I came from smartphones that NEED overclock to have a fluid and rapid system), and when I reset it to 1000 mhz, it never did me another crash no more.
So yes, the bug is only this popup. I know isn't a little bug, but with the passing of times, it appears more and more times, so it's tiresome.
ah, few seconds before bug, the phone vibrate 3 times (everytime).
I'm using a plastic gel cover.
ah, another little thing that I hear yesterday for the first time: the front speaker at the top, sometimes (also 2-3 times in a minute, don' t know if it do that always, as in lock screen) do a very low sound repeated for few seconds (it's hard to explain this, it seems a radio frequency as "toctoctoctoctoc")...sorry for this onomatopea but maybe its' helpful for understanding what I mean
...any news from the .txt that I sent you ?
Take off your case for a whole day, don't put it on your phone. Tell me if it still happens during that day.
I can nearly assure you, up to 99.9%, that your problem will stop.
I know it sounds crazy, but do it. You can thank me later.

my last smartphone had similar problem (microphone of acer liquid metal won' t work well with case)!!
but now the case seems to create a worst problem!! I can' t believe that this simple accessories can made theese problems ( considering that technology should give us better phones in every kind of way)....
NEWS : today, for the first time, telephone crashes 2 times: it never happens since my last OC (2 weeks ago) !!
I hope that case was problem for bug and also crashes!!

Tell me if the bugmailer problem seems fixed after using it for a while.
Edit: I don't believe the crashes are related however. I'll tell you the magic behind the bug mailer after you tell me if it's fixed!
ok I'll say you in 2 days!
however, for crashes, I think I did a bull**** using a bad app called "cache fixer", because I used to free memory with my old phone.
If I see crashes again, I' ll wipe the phone.
OMG!!! you seems to have reason (fortunately) !!!
I'm nearly sure to have fixed this, now I wanna know the magic trick!!
How a technologic phone can be shocked by a simple plastic gel ?!?!
I guess that answer it's or the semi-pressure of volume/on-off buttons, or somethink linked to the temprature (with cover it increases). Right ?
Other things: for now, no other crashes, but the strange silent rumor on the top of the headspeaker sometimes appears. Can the phone record this low sound on the top? So you ' ll understand what I mean...
for now... thanks!!

Your phone case presses on VOL +, VOL - and POWER all at the same time. That's a developper feature.
You can "disable" it by turning off USB debug but I highly suggest either fixing your case if possible or getting another one that doesn't press those buttons for no reason.
Edit: I have no idea what you are talking about for the other issue though.

Hi all
Just got my 2nd nexus 5, first one went back for touch screen issues. Got 2nd one and this has problem too.
If someone sends me a text the pulse notification light pulses once and that's it. No repeat. However after that if someone sends me a text it works as it should, ie repeats every 10 seconds.
Seems very random as to when it works properly. Anyone else have this issue?
Thanks all
Chris

Yes, people have this problem on stock rom.. It appears randomly though and not as often as you're getting. A restart fixes it... Are you using Light Flow or any app to control the LED??
No will light flow solve this?

Trying it now seems to work ok. Strange that my last nexus didn't suffer this problem. Wounder if Google are aware of this issue?
Also on a side note not sure if it's related but I'm sure my first nexus 5 did a software update when I first took it out of the box, my new one did not do that.

Yes, I think they are aware of it... I remember reading it somewhere around XDA about it.. Can't find a link to it though.. I guess we will just have to wait for the update and see... FYI, a reboot fixes the issue temporarily..
It didn't update because the ones which were manufactured in January came with 4.4.2 Out of the box which is the latest update!

Thanks for your reply mate, for me when I reboot the first message does not work, then they seem ok after that, that's just for sms, I get no notifications at all with whatsapp etc, however light flow seems to work ok at moment but would be nice if Google did a fix.
So I have this weird scrolling issue, like the one on this video:
Can someone please test if their phone does the same? I will replace the phone if this turns out to be a hardware fault. Thanks!
Hi,
I have the same issue on my OP9. But if I hadn't seen this video, I would never have known there was such a problem. Like in your video, problem exists only in stock launcher.

Alright, thank you! Yes it is a minor issue, but still quite annoying (at least for me and my way of using the device). Hopefully they will fix as it soon, as it seems to be happening only on the base non-pro 9 model.
First thing i do is install NOVA launcher. So never noticed an issue.

Okay, that's weird. Maybe I'm just too sensitive but scrolling feels off to me because of this.

Thanks for all the info so far! Just one more thing, could you please test it again, but keep your finger still for at least a second before flicking.
I am really sorry to bother you with this, but I am going to replace the phone, if yours turns out to be ok. I'm just paranoid that you might have missed it because it's so subtle.
In Nova the app drawer is side to side, but no issue there and in trying up and down in couple apps no issue . Even tested keyboard and virtually instant response using exact same keys from video. P0qla no delay at all

Alright, something is wrong with mine then... Or maybe the T-mobile version of the phone doesn't have this bug, since it uses a slightly different software.
Yeah could be. Maybe t-mobile turned down the touch rejection.
