[Q] Installing Android L Causes Facebook Messenger, Skype & Video Streaming Crashes
Hello Dears,
I have Nexus 5 and just today I've installed the official update for Android Lollipop, After doing the update, Facebook Calls, Skype Calls, Viber Calls, and Streaming any video through the browser causes crashes to these apps and the device freezes for around a minute before it comes back to work normally,
I guess the issue is that there is something stopping those apps to function, some of the things I've done hoping the issue would be fixed are
Restart the device
Remove apps and reinstall them
Try different internet connections, 2 wifi's, 1 3G connection
And nothing fixed my issue of having those apps crash before they run. would really love your support on this

Skype bugs on Nexus 5

Hello everyone,
I've been having these issues with the latest version of Skype for quite a while and I'm not sure what appears to be causing them. Whenever I have a video conversation on Skype, the video stream tends to stop after a certain period of time and the only solution I've found so far is to close Skype and relaunch it. Also, sometimes Skype rings for a couple of minutes until I'm able to successfully establish a connection with the person I'm trying to call. I don't know if it's because Skype hasn't been very well optimized for KitKat version 4.4.2, but I suspect the camera mod that I have might be causing this. Do you think this is possible? Or do you have any other ideas?

Browsing Issue with my Xperia C

Hello everyone, i got my xperia C not too long ago and i updated it to the latest available software right after i got it (16.0.B.2.16 is my current build number)
The phone is working just fine except for one issue that is google chrome, 1st lemme put this clear while using WIFI this issue does not exist and it works just fine, anyway Chrome on mobile network connection however is a different story, it doesnt work properly, for example whenever i try to go to any website it loads for a long time and i end up getting a server not available message or unable to load or whatever, and i know for a fact that it has nothing to do with my mobile connection as other apps work just fine including Opera browser which opens whichever website i want right away, however some of the apps that are influenced by google chrome ( or at least i think so coz they r mostly affected by the same issue on mobile network ) like youtube or playstore and sometimes even facebook app ( not the messenger app that one works just fine ) and its been nagging me badly
I understand that simply by using opera my browsing issue is solved but again like i said i believe that some apps are influenced by chrome in one way or another or they r just simply affected by the same issue ( including skype which is extremely unstable like chrome on cell connection but works just fine on WIFI) so i cant just let that issue be as i need chrome to be working properly
Also note that whenever i open a hotspot for someone their chrome browser and all other apps work just fine so iam sure that my issue has nothing to do with mobile coverage or internet configuration settings, another thing, my brother has same xperia C unit and his browsing is just fine however he hasnt updated to the latest firmware ( i dont know whether that issue existed before the update or not as i updated the phone right after i got it before i could put anything to test)
so here are some things that i tried to fix this:
restarting phone, didn't work
factory reset, didn't work
updating chrome, didn't work, removing the update didn't work
uninstalling opera, didnt work
basically nothing works and i really need to get chrome working properly, thanks for reading and i hope anyone can help me fix it as its really bothering me.
Try disabling auto sync and/or removing your Google account from Chrome [don't log in during initial setup].

Anyway to fix Bluetooth issues?

This issue only started for me about a month ago and has gotten progressively worse.
Every time I open Google apps that could be used to stream music (play music, YouTube), I get a message saying that Bluetooth has stopped.
It happens whether I'm actually connected to a Bluetooth device or not and I can't find a way to prevent it. It never used to happen while using power amp either.
Is there anything that can be done?
Edit: It happens any time I play music now
Edit 2: The problem seems to be related to an update of the play music app. I uninstalled the update and only have the base version of the app now and everything is working fine.
Try going into apps in sttings if ure rooted use a diffrent app manager and clear the cache and data on bluetooth

facebook messenger MICROPHONE not working :( :(

its TOOOOOOOOOOOOO Bad that otherside cant hear my on FACEBOOK MESSENGER, and my phone works pretty good on normal phone calll skype call. and LONG PRESS TO SEND VOICE MESSAGE on facebook messenger. anyone had the same problem??
anyone who could help me koz. i stay abroad and need to be in contact with my family al the time. PLEASE HELP
everyone'S MESSENGER CALLS WORKING FINE??
It's weird that "press to send voice message" works and not the voice during a call, but maybe the first one is not directly related to your app. Did you check that Messenger has the permission to use your microphone ?
In Settings > Apps > Messenger > Permissions > "Microphone" should be activated.
yes

YEAH i tried the permissions. if not permission for MIC why would it send sound clips. still the same problem. anyone else had this problem?
I currently have the same problem on my Samsung Note 4 (n910f). Everything works perfect, except video calls on facebook messenger. Sending voice clips over messenger works. I tried to mess with the permissions, updated messenger app, updated phone firmware, tried everything. On every other apps the microphone work flawless. I event send facebook a report, but haven t heard anything.
how to make permission allow there is not any open close mark
Know this is an old thread but I found it through a Google search with same problem.
I found the problem for my self.
It's not only microphone permission it needs, I needs phone permissions too. Why I can't tell. Poor development maybe.
Iphones too
I have the same issue with messenger BUT it was working great on my android devices, but I had to switch to iOS... and guess what... I used an SE then a 6s and later a 7 (bootloop so back to 6s. I don’t want to spend a fortune on new ones) every single one had the same issue with the mic. I’ve tried to install the messenger first after a clean factory reset... and I had the same problem. My wife is using her iPhone with no issues at all. I am still using android as a secondary but my main phone must be an iPhone (flickin company)...
I got the same problem on my Galaxy note 10 plus with messenger microphone.
But ONLY when i make a video call. When i recieve a video call it's working fine!! I call back and they can't listen me.
All other similar apps like DUO, Viber, What's Up, Skype are working fine.
Phone app working fine too. All apps and the device are working fine.
I reset the device and it solved but after some days it's back again!!
It makes me crazy!

lg g stylo(T mob)-distorted sound on viber/skype/whatsapp after marshmallow update 4g

i updated system to marshmallow 3 days ago. since then, not a single voice app is not working properly - viber, whatsapp, skype.
tried everything, uninstalling my t9 dialer (drupe), uninstalling voice recorder, even uninstalling my hola launcher, because of that known issue of permitting drawing over other apps (i've had a lot of issues with hola and drupe drawing over other apps, but i fixed it) - nothing works.
all voice/camera apps are working fine on any wifi, they just have distorted sound on 4g (and i have a lot of unused data on 4g, so it is not a problem).
even more weird thing - my wife and my son have exactly same phone - lg g stylo #1. they updated it to marshmallow and they have same issue.
anybody has similar problem or idea how to fix it, please? thanks in advance
