[Q] Should I exchange my Xoom?

I know that everyone is having issues of some sort with their xoom but I feel as if mine crashing and restarting may be excessive. I will make this brief but I just wanted to know if anyone else's xooms freeze up and show a graphical error similar to a bad graphics card when in the browser. Here I have a picture showing the issue. And if this is a common error, are there any known fixes?

Looks like a problem with the renderer in the browser, or whatever hardware / software is running it. If it doesn't happen elsewhere its probably just a software issue, just flash a stock image, hopefully that will fix it.

I've had the same issue... random crashiness in the browser... images sometimes failing to appear but coming up after a resize. Things were quite a bit better with flash uninstalled. I tried turning off 3d rendering mode in the browser debug setting and had no video issues but the browser was almost unusably slow. I haven't had the issues in other apps so I suspect the browser is quite buggy.

[Q] Wifi xoom on 3.2 wifi issue? [SOLUTION]

is anybody else noticing issues where apps that use internet crash constantly? E.G. When installing Asphalt 6 it crashes about 30 times which i have to keep resuming saying there was downloading errors. Not to mention i have to wait about 3 minutes after hitting download for apps in the market to actually download? Is anybody else experiencing these issues? Please make yourself known if you are and if somebody has generated a fix for this PLEASE tell me.
[[[[[[SOLUTION]]]]]]]]
Okay so i found out theres a bug with the 3.2 update. At least in my case. Maybe others who just arent aware yet. I hosted tests. I installed asphalt 6 on my 3.2 rooted unlocked setup. the download failed about 30 times intermittently. slowly downloaded entire thing failing and restarting throughout.
Then i removed my root and relocked my device and factory reset it(still on 3.2 just deleted all my data). Posted same test with same results. So then i flashed my device to 3.0 and upgraded to 3.1 DID NOT UPDATE TO 3.2. Did the same test downloading asphalt. It downloaded all 500+mb of data in one run without failing. Aswell as my Gtalk has been sitting for an hour and hasnt logged me off once.
So my conclusion is that 3.2 brings unstable wifi connections and therefor i will stay at 3.1 until a new update is released!!! THANKS!!!!!
Again this may not bother others but if im doing video on talk i hate having to recall every 5 minutes and i hate having to constantly try to redownload files when they fail.

ALSO google talk logs me out every few minutes.

..anybody?

No issues like that to report here. I'm running tiamat rom 2.0 now, but I was running 3.2 stock before and it was fine.

hmm
I think i figured the market part out... I hit download app it says waiting for install. I click on my apps in the top corner then hit back twice then go to the app again and instead of download it says install. REALLY WEIRD market glitch...
Now for Gtalk. Is anybody else having issues where it logs you out ever 5 to 10 minutes saying issues connecting to server?

It would be nice to know im not the only one having issues downloading large files on 3.2 Just so i can know for sure i dont have defective hardware.

I don't think this is related but whenever I have had trouble downloading, I check to see if I have any app updates waiting. They seem to take priority over new downloads.

I notice that too but unfortuneatly this is just when i was downloading 1 large file. I dont know why but for some god awful reason my wifi connection reset like ever 5-10 minutes causing issues for every app that needs internet access. But now on 3.1 its working flawlessly. Along with the benefit of having swype keyboard

I am starting to narrow this bug down, and should be fixesd in the next tiamat rom.

I am using Tiamat 2.01 and am experiencing extreme slowness on anything over wifi. This is on a U.S. wifi only. As I'm typing this there is a several second lag from when I hit the key to the time it displays. What I don't remember is whether it started when I went from Tiamat 1.1 to 2.0 or from 2.0 to 2.01.

Man i really dont think its your fault for this bug. Whenever i upgraded to 3.2 stock alone this issue arises. I guarantee you its the fault of the stock rom. thats when i experience the issue. ive tried updating to just stock 3.2 3 times now from 3.1. 3.1 is always fine. No download issues. It downloads whole files in bulk without failing. But it never fails. Every time i upgrade to 3.2 stock i get failures throughout the large file downloads.

Any news? out of curiosity.

I am sure this was discussed somewhere else, but if you set up the WiFi profile with a static IP this issue goes away. It is definitely a bug in stock 3.2 where DHCP continuously reassigns and IP address every few minutes causing all downloads and GTalk sessions to be disconnected. Now I know static IP addresses are not always possible, but strangly what I found on my stock 3.2 Xoom is that as soon as I had ONE profile setup to use static IP, the other profiles that were setup to use DHCP no longer had this problem. Really strange.

My problem is that everything over wifi was slow with several second lags between the time you hit a key and the time it displayed that character. Even just scrolling on a webpage was excruciatingly slow. Local apps ran fine. I thought I would give your idea a try, so I went into my AT&T U-verse modem and left DHCP enabled for my Xoom's IP address, but I dedicated that address to my Xoom. I then rebooted the Xoom and without making it a static IP address my network speed was very fast.
Hopefully that helps anyone who is having the same issue, but doesn't want to set a static IP address.

anyone make any progress on this yet? I just flashed the 3.2 Tiamat 2.01 ROM, coming from Tiamat 1.1 and am unable to complete the download of themes in thumb keyboard and other apps that allow for in-app downloads. I am assuming that the problem is related to this. Does that sound correct?

MOKEE 4.4.2 Network Issue - GT-P3100

Okay so i have 4.4.2 in my gt-p3100 and am facing continuous network loss.
One second its there and the other second it says no service.
Then it identifies my cell network but shows this -
No Service- TATA DOCOMO
(Tata docomo is my network provider)
This happens usually when i am about to make a call or message or about to recieve a call or message.
The incoming call gets displayed for a split second and then bam..!
The network goes away.
And then again it shows no service and the cycle continues.
Toggling the airplane mode on and off sometimes helps, but mostly i cant get it even after several reboots or sim changes and everything.
I am really annoyed now.
This started only 5-6 days ago.
I completely reformatted this tab and had a fresh install but still it continues.
I have a custom messaging app called 8sms and xposed framework installed although i use just X-Privacy.
Besides i read that moto G users in my region are facing the same issue in their current KitKat version.
Just for reference : https://forums.motorola.com/posts/027c60e48f
Any help is urgently needed, thanks.

Bump...???

I hope this helps.
Clean install ROM. do not restore backup apps first. first log-in through your google account and restore all..
I experience same problem with other roms also slimkat, sensonic, dhollmen. what i did is restore my contacts and apn setting from my google account not from a backup. i hope this helps.

Well i had just cleaned and installed but what i did was let google restore the contacts and apn.
Then i manually restored some apks via app backup and restore.
And then i used Titanium Backup to restore the data in all of them.
Is this the wrong way.?
Thanks btw.

@gangpe well i changed the APN as u said.
But i was playing GTA San Andreas.
And a call came and it rang for a split second and then same..the network goes away.
But it came back automatically.
Still the issue is not solved coz it happens randomly .

Is the apn still there, or did it disappear? I ran into an issue once where the apn did not save for some reason...

Well its still there...
I chose the same name for it too, would that conflict.?
Also randomly it happens when sending/recieving a message too.
I click on send and suddenly it says no service and then the message cannot be sent even after 2-3 reboots. :-/

Bump..
Any one know any solution..?
Its starting to get on my nerves.
Random no service msgs.
And wont get stable unless 2-3 reboots..:-/ :-/

Not sure what to tell you. A few days ago, I had a few weird issues (could not install xposed framework, quick settings panel would not work), so I ended up wiping cache, data, system, and dalvik. After wiping, I re-installed the ROM, and I have been good since.
In my case, there was probably an old setting I had that was causing issues. If you haven't tried wiping those four options, then I would suggest you try wiping/reinstalling.
If you have tried that, not really sure what to say. Sounds like you might need to head back to stock for a while until a later release resolves the issue.

Mmmm...the thing u are telling is a case of wrong dirty flash of a rom, i mean u must have flashed a previous version rom without wiping over other rom version.
I have faced this too..but the thing i was facing seems to have gone now on current latest release.
Dont know but i did not fixed permissions from TWRP this time after OTA and now the issue hasnt surfaced since 24 hours.
Maybe i'l wait some more and check and report back here.
Thanks anyways.

Now i m gonna pull my hairs out..!!!!
Wtf is this sorcery.. I was watching a vid on MX player and again the no network issue started happening as soon as a call came....!
This MX player is the culprit i think..usually while watching vids this happens...

Same issue for me on p5100, it happens both on Dhollmen and Mokee.
I don't have MX player installed.
Often happens when watching videos, but I'm not sure if it happens ONLY WHEN watching videos.
However, no further way out than rebooting.

Well i am facing this randomly..but usually while mx player is on.
I cant seem to find any solution to this.
In rare cases i need 2-3 reboots to fix this.

M soo very disappointed guys.
Have not a single site as great as xda and not many people are even looking at our problem.
I generalized the problem to most full screen apps.
And it happens usually while pausing the app and flicking down the status bar and doing some multitasking from there or pressing the home button.
Anyone....???

Or should i just try Omni Rom.?
Maybe Mokee has this bug..?

If you try Omni Rom, I really appreciate if you let me known the results in any case, since I have no free time and currently I cannot flash this rom

Okay mate, i'l flash that in about a week as my exams are going on.
Omni has just this battery drain issue.
It seems no one knows about the problem we are facing on mokee.

@loboz well i flashed omni and its feature packed..
No issues till now, a little different from mokee and you'l be glad you did as mokee's OTA are dead too..
Satisfied with omni..

[Q] Does anybody else have a problem with the screen waking up?

Hi there, I bought an S Relay when it was first released here in the US. I just have a tiny issue with it that still hasn't been resolved in however many times I've updated the damn thing.
I currently have a cyanogenmod based rom on the phone, but this happens with almost any cyanogenmod rom. (Including the official ones) The screen, even though I unlock the phone, will sometimes decide to stay dark or give me this weird broken-crt pattern with bits of what I'm supposed to be looking at jumbled in. Does anybody else have this issue? Or am I just crazy?
In this respect, the offical samsung rom works great with the phone. I would use it if it didn't suck so bad, which is why I want to figure this out. The specific rom is FatToad[Android 5.0.2] by TeamApexQ, but this has happened ever since they started development on the cyanogenmod rom way back when.

Are you using bluetooth when this happens? As of FatToad 5.0.2, currently the only verified reason for this to happen is memory exhaustion (and resultant spike in CPU as it attempts to swap and fails) The only thing I've seen to cause this and not fall prey to Android's low memory killer is the bluetooth stack which seems a bit buggy. If you are not using bluetooth, please send me a logcat of the issue. Also, when this happens, can you still get to adb?

I'm going to install android studio now and see if I can get the log info. But no, without bluetooth enabled, this still happens.

I just dumped the log from my phone around when this happens. It took a few tries to get it to happen, but it eventually did. I stopped logcat right after I got the screen to wake and unlock successfully. I'll attach it here.
Also, adb does work even when the screen doesn't wake up.
(I had to zip it since the size nazis caught me 36 kb over the 512 kb limit.)

Same problem here, and I have yet to find a solution (CM11)

I tried to change the governor, and it seemed to work, but then I*updated to Valdius 5.0.2, and no wakelocks.

App by the name 'imonitor' got installed and now my WiFi keeps crashing.

Anyone else started to face problems when suddenly an app by the name 'imonitor' got installed on their Honor 6X and it keeps crashing preventing the WiFi from working.
I did some research and turns out that it is a spyware and I can't delete it because I am unrooted and my it is a system app.
How can I fix this?

i think imonitor is a system app which is preinstalled in the phone...I also have that app and is running in background almost all the times....I am not facing the issue !
Sent from my BLN-L22 using XDA Labs

I have that app too, it's part of the software, and it doesn't causes any issue to me. Wi-Fi usage is independent from imonitor service running.
I did some research too some time ago, and i found this investigation taken from a Twitter user here https://twitter.com/fs0c131y/status/960632764973441024 where the question about what it really does it's still unknown. Some thinks it's a spyware app, while Huawei claims that it's part of the anti-virus software present in Phone Service app.
It's possible to froze the app, anyway. But root is needed.

Hi.
I've got the same problem, since 10th May too, on my honor 6.x
imonitor process doesn't response, which causes very serious slowdowns of the interface and the others applications. The mobile network is not reachable, and some incoming phone calls were missed.
Temporarely I had to reboot to get mobile functions on, but problem is not solved...
And I confirm the symptoms described by Veeruroxx : wifi connexion became off.
I get the message "imonitor application doesn't response. Waiting or close the app".
When you select "wait", the message "imonitor application ..." comes again later, and when you select "close the app", no message comes later, but when you go the process running in parameters of the smartphone (developper options activated), you can see imonitor application is still running.
Another clue, maybe, i've got the city race 3d game installed on my phone, and i can no longer run it. I uninstall et install again the application, but nothing has changed. can't run again.
Perhaps it's not imonitor application which is the source of the problem, but the problem seems to appear by that application.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Already tried by writing to Huawei explaining the issue?

I wrote on Club Honor but I didn't get a reply. Is there a place where I can contact the customer support as I am unable to find.

UPDATE:
I received an OTA Update (BLN-L22C675B363) and I haven't faced the issue since then. The changelog did mention about updates regarding security patches and I am assuming that the 'imonitor' app is sending error logs to some Huawei servers and there was a communication error that caused the WiFi to stay busy. However, that seems to be patched now.
Did anyone else get this update and can they report whether their issue has been fixed?
