So... I had no problems with my(second) idol 3, all was well and dandy. But recently the colours on the screen became more saturated, almost like an amoled display, followed by a significant decrease in performance. Nothing is changed, no root no nothing. Totally stock, except for the launcher. That would be Nova launcher and I used it since the day I got the phone with no problems. What the hell happened and has anyone else experienced this?
Random restart happened today and all my wifi passwords are lost.
in which app the colors are saturated? stock gallery app?
All over the phone. Not just the gallery. Perhaps the gallery is the fault for it?

i asked the gallery 'cause on my idol mostly (but not the only one) the gallery app that distorts color badly... have you tried a CM rom? in my case there is no color distortion on CM at all so the stock rom obviously has the wrong color balance settings
check this
https://www.reddit.com/r/idol3/comments/4g9ld9/distorted_colors_in_stock_gallery_app/
Yeah, I know about the gallery app too. Can't really install a CM rom due to warranty, it's only two monts old. I'm sure that the problem can be solved with a full wipe but that is not the answer I'm looking for.

I doubt that a wipe can solve errors like this. I did it a few times, restored firmware with Mobile Q, color distortions on stock ROM never disappeared. Best experience was with Color Balance app from Play Store. It's just too expensive for my budget.
I have tried wiping cash but to no avail. The performance has slightly improved during the day but has returned back to garbage now. This is so annoying. Is there a way to check the "settings" for this without root? Maybe something in build.prop or such?

without root you can't do any really useful. if you don't want to install cm, check this app (earlier i made a mistake with its name):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=co.uk.quickdoc.screenbalance&hl=en
If it can stop color distortion, at least you'll know that the phone hardware itself is correct, just the stock rom sucks.
-edit-
just read the new symptoms, at first i'd make a full reinstall with mobile upgrade q, if it doesn't solve anything, i'd go to a cm rom.
The problem seems to have fixed itself. I don't know what happened. All it's buttery smoothnes has returned after an accidental tap on the gallery app. The saturation has returned to normal too. I'll check out the app link for good measure. Thanks for all the help. How does one close a thread?
Guess I spoke too soon. The phone just did something of a restart. The whole boot animation happened but none of my open apps(gmail and chrome) have closed once it booted. Very strange.

that's normal, opened apps don't disappear from 'recent apps' after a reboot on lollipop.
however a reboot just from nowhere isn't normal.

I did not know that. Guess I will have to do the mobile upgrade q procedure. I'll give it a few days before I do that though.
Welp. I've given it some days and the problem has not returned. Also, a fun thing i didn't mention. This replacement idol 3 is not exactly the same as the previous one. For example the camera lenses had a green tint on the first one, but on this one they're blue. And the logo niw sits flush with the surface instead of being pushed more inside.

i JUST bought this phone yesterday and today is the first day i have actually gotten to use it and start setting it up. Its all stock. the only thing i did was install my general apps that i use all the time, and disabled the useless apps. verizon apps, amazon, some google play apps, etc. nothing major to the phone. whats happening is that when i play a youtube video or play a game, i get like a half second stutter or freeze then it continues normally. this happens on all games.
any ideas what it could be?
Bring that sucker back and get a replacement.
In all seriousness, this really sucks to hear. Have you tried unfreezing all previously frozen apps to see if the issue still persists? Since you haven't modified anything in the phone yet, you could perform a factory reset and see if that helps anything.

This phone should not stutter at all. It should fly through everything. If factory reset doesn't fix it, return it

I know. I was shhocked when I started to notice it. I ONLY noticed it on YouTube vids and games. The the menus there didn't seem to have a hiccup at all. Maybe an app I installed? I'll try unfreezing tho oak what one would cause that.
The other issue I'm having is with my chrome bookmarks. I have 2 folders on my chrome. "Other bookmarks" where All my computer bookmarks r stores and "mobile bookmarks" when nothing is stored. What I'm trying to do is copy say Facebook from other to mobile. But every time I go to do that it moves it from other to mobile and than its no longer on other bookmarks. How can I copy bookmarks over without moving them?

If a factory reset didn't fix it (if you've done one yet), just take it back. No system setting is going to cause intermittent lag. That would be the worst idea for a setting ever... "Check this box to slow down your system at random times."

I have an M8 that at first was super fast pretty much at all times.
I installed Next Launcher on it, and it was still fast, for at least a few weeks I think.
But now I regularly get nasty lag when using that launcher (tapping on home or whatever, even other app's).. lag on the order of even 1-4 seconds before an action takes place… not acceptable at all.
I saw a post somewhere about modifying a build.prop option to "always keep launcher in memory" or something like that. I believe the post said that the launcher may get unloaded from memory at times by Android if other memory intensive app's are running.
Just wondering if anyone else has encountered similar lag from a launcher like Next Launcher… or other lag just appearing over time.
If I do a restart, lag will go away for a bit, but then return… I think it's when the Launcher is loaded, and resident in memory, that lag goes away for a bit.
I didn't want to have to root just to modify build.prop, but I guess I may have to…
Thanks for any ideas…
p.s.
I have the AT&T HTC One M8… but I doubt that would matter for this issue.
[Fixed]
Checking "System persistent" under "Performance Settings" seems to have fixed most lag on Next Launcher for me.
I also checked "Hyper Fluency" which may also help.
Nice that this option was possible so I didn't have to root just to keep the Launcher fluid...

Not necessarily. I've used more than 10 different Android devices, including the HTC One M8, and every one of them stuttered to some degree, usually once every 2 or 3 seconds while watching YouTube or Netflix, playing games, etc. It has nothing to do with network speed or a device defect. But if it's really freezing for half a second, that's a different story.

Yes, it does. You're just not sensitive enough to notice.
I am having similar issue. Got the phone a few weeks ago, and have been getting used to it. First off, the battery life is not what people made it out to be, unless mine is faulty...
Getting to the point though, in the notification bar, if there is more than 2 notifications at the same time, say an email, a chat, and a text, when I unlock the phone, the entire top notification bar "flashes" in a stuttery manner... and until i remove the notifications it continues to do this. I attempted factory reset but had no success.. Any advice?
Anyone else have a screen flicker before phone times out into sleep mode? When the screen is already dark, there's a multi-colored box in the bottom quarter. WTF?

Negative. Sounds like sometime is buggy in the fw, or possibly damaged screen/flex cable thats capturing raw data instead of the signal being sent to it. I work in a cell repair shop, and it's quite amusing when iphones do it.
Have you tried booting into safemode and seeing if it still does it?

My first guest was something funky in the FW as well. I have a fresh clean backup of the OS, and will try flashing that tomorrow. The display has been replaced, and the cable definitely attached securely. I'll save the safe mode option to last.

Just out of curiosity why would you revert to a backed up OS before trying safe mode when it's as simple as a couple button clicks and easily restored to default boot-up. Time to safe-boot, test, and restart would probably be shorter than time spent to revert to an older backup, but your call there captain. Hope it's just a FW issue, should keep me the thread up to date if you do find a solution though

I guess I knew a lot less about safe mode and I thought. Could this be something to deal with the dream state option of this phone sleep mode? I'll probably give safe mode a try when I get home.
Ok, in safemode, MotoLauncher was in perpetual FC action, I couldn't do anything. I've recently noticed that some settings in Lux auto brightness were changed. Put it back into normal mode, flashed a clean, fresh backup of the OS. All seems fine, now.

Oh well I'm glad you figured it out. The default launcher shouldn't FC anyways, especially under safe-mode, but it's an easy way to figure out that a faulty OS may be the cause.

As a follow up, the (red) flicker does come back after a short while. I have suspicions because I noticed with sub-zero Lux settings, it happens, and with dialing it up past zero things calm down, but not 100%. Yeah, I was shocked about the stock launcher perpetually FCing. I haven't checked it with a wholly clean re-install of the system only...project for a rainy day. I did check it after making the stock launcher the launcher of choice, still FCing.

My note 20 ultra is having an issue where certain times when I go back to home screen, the app I was on leaves a ghost image on the screen. Only way to seem to get rid of it is to reboot device. Have to do this once a day. Tried with Nova and One UI but no dice fixing without reboot.

Did you set your phone up from scratch or did you transfer data from another phone. If you transferred from another phone there's been numerous post here about bugs and they were fixed with a FDR.
From the boot menu clear the Sytem Cache... this cures many glitches.
Find the app doing it and clear its cache and data if need be.
If that's the only issue with that load and nothing gets it done, disable the pop up notifications/overlay permissions for that app. Not sure how it's displayed in settings on Q.

Could the MS apks be the root cause?
I don't use any of the MS apks, in fact they're all blocked.
If you do a hard reset and it comes back, you'll have gained nothing. Most times it's a settings issue or a misbehaving 3rd party app.
Have had the most trouble with 3rd party launchers. Best to avoid them as they can goof up a lot including boot up.
>Keep playing with it< and try some Google searches as others will many times have the same issues.
Try package blocking suspect apks and see if that ferrets it out. Use Device Manager to see what apps are loaded in the memory cache when it goes nuts.
I've used this to track down a nasty one, once I cleared the data on the right system apk all was good.
Best of all if it happens again, I know what to do.
A last resort before a hard reset is to do a setting reset however this is a global settings nuke.
Again, clear the system cache and then suspected apk caches however sometimes you'll need to clear their data as well. PD MDM is a better option to clear apk caches/data in as it leaves no nulls or something that clearing the same in settings DOES.
Sounds skewy but been there, done that.

Back up everything to Samsung cloud and do a FDR. If that doesn't fix the issue just restore and you're right back where you were.
There have been several reports of bugs on this forum and they were mostly due to restoring data from another phone.

Hopefully it might fix it but you should never transfer data from your old phone to your new phone, it just causes problems. I've been doing this since 2009 and have learned the hard way.

3rd party launchers can put you in boot loop hell.

I'm using 8/256gb MIUI 12.5.1.0 global version and I have some issues.
I can't upload anything anywhere from gallery or any file manager. It's really annoying. I would attach a video I've recorded here, but I can't.
I'm having more and more problems with this phone. Photos don't save to gallery, so I had to use Google photos and some third party file managers to do the job. It forces dark mode on every app when you have dark mode turned on, even when it sometimes looks ****ty and I had to turn off messenger heads, cause they disabled them and instead, now they look square and don't work like they're supposed to, so I had to turn them off. I've created this account just to ask this, cause I felt like you people might know what's going on. Thanks in advance.
Looks Mike 12.5.1 is a public beta (have it on my phone as well)... File a feedback report to POCO, post some comments at Play Store... and wait for upcoming update of MIUI or switch to some custom ROM.
Edit: after turning on MIUI optimization, most of the problems are fixed.

Same device, same issue. I had it on MIUI 12.0.5 and have it now on 12.5.1 (both debloated). It believed it was because of the debloating but reading this it might be a problem only on the 8/256 GB version?
I can share from MIUI gallery but not from any Messenger (WhatsApp) or Edit App (Snapseed). I always need to save the pic/video and only then I can share. So annoying.

Had to look this up (was not sure if debloating killed it). Had to reenable the developer settings again by tapping multiple times on the MIUI version in the About 12.5.1 section.
Then Phone settings > Additional settings > Developer options > Turn on MIUI optimization (was off)
So I enabled that and so far checking it it really seems to solve the issue. Weird that this is causing such file sharing problems.
So are you guys saying that it may be a better idea to buy the 128/6 version because the 256/8 is really buggy?
It's MIUI that is buggy. 256/8 is fine.
Other custom ROMs do better.
MIUI optimizations is just crap.
Firstly, someone at xiaomi was drunk who chose a name like this.
If its turned on, i have experienced, few apks fail to install.
Once its turned off, you can install those apps, but then whole of UI is messed up(like circle icons go square, and dont know what else..)
So basically miui chose to hinder people of turning optimizations off, by deliberately introducing these kind of wiered issues.
I just cant handle miui .. just cant.
No one should use MIUI.. its just a piece of CRAP.

I rebooted ny device multiple times. Didn't fix.
Lately ever since the last update, my Poco x3 phone, which I purchased in January of 2020/2021 has been acting rather weirdly.
Before the update or patch I could easily edit my documents, now it won't let me write anything or it double collies the text/writing or puts it in odd places that I didn't command it to do so, this is really annoying because it means my work turns into Gibberish.
I've tried everything from a hard reset to uninstalling then reinstalling my apps, but nothing works.
I even tried to o email Poco about this problem but all my emails suddenly vanished once I seid send like they never existed, also my work has been mysteriously disappeared like I deleted it when I know I didn't.
Anyone else having these problems?
If so why, and is there an easy fix?.

Lately ever since the last update, my Poco x3 phone, which I purchased in January of 2020/2021 has been acting rather weirdly.
Before the update or patch I could easily edit my documents, now it won't let me write anything or it double collies the text/writing or puts it in odd places that I didn't command it to do so, this is really annoying because it means my work turns into Gibberish.
I've tried everything from a hard reset to uninstalling then reinstalling my apps, but nothing works.
I even tried to o email Poco about this problem but all my emails suddenly vanished once I seid send like they never existed, also my work has been mysteriously disappeared like I deleted it when I know I didn't.
Anyone else having these problems?
If so why, and is there an easy fix?.
Yours sincerely

Best fast easy fix is get a custom rom and get rid of miui...
Now on a serious not, you may need to wait for next update to fix it or take the phone to a xiaomi service center for them to try fix it...
Does anyone else have crashes for oneUI ? Fort me it happens like twice a week on my exynos model.
I'm so disappointed with this phone to be honest. It's stutters now and than and to many crashes in various apps.
I'm assuming must of it is due to Samsung chip.
I have also whacked for nightly restart even thought it's stupid i think.
Did this happen from day one?
If not it's likely an app, update or settings issue.
Still that's pretty unstable... it could be a hardware issue.

try factory reset with disabling of trashy preinstalled apps (disabled 144 on mine ), then install your apps (not restore)
adb app control
It wasn't happened on mine ( SD variant). Try to factory reset the phone, download and re-install all of your app instead of restore them (even with the phone setting). It may help to solve issues
I appreciate the tips but seriously guys, factory reset and redownload of this many apps i have is like a weeks work! I only download the stuff i use (and 99% payed apps as i hate ads). Not to mention i might loose some data thanks to how Android save data. This is not 2010. I hope modern phones are more stable then that.
If this was iPhone then i could simply restore easy but with Android its not as simple.
If there is no other way i wait for some more samsung firmware updates.
It has not happened this week so lets see.
I notice some specific apps are specially bad like LinkedIn hangs allot. Tapatalk wont work even with this forum and gives error. Maybe some of these apps make the launcher go nuts....
Try using a different launcher, to see if that stops the crashing

No thank you. I like Nova but i really like to use stock now so i get all my folders and settings saved properly
But i might go to Nova again. It has so much great tweaking...

Only saying it to see if its the launcher that's causing the crashes.
Install latest updates, seems that they finally fixed the problem

Yes there has been 2-3 updates since last time and so far it has not crashed so it seems to be fixed. Cheers
