mouse icon randomly shows up? - Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Official nougat on k1. Randomly the mouse icon (black arrow) shows up and disappears quickly. It seems to happen in low memory situations or the device is lagging because the mouse pops up (not sure which causes which). It happened after taking the OTA. So I went back to 1.5, took the OTA, then factory reset while on nougat. Still happens. Has anyone else noticed this?

Have you noticed any possible causes? I often feel like it's random, I've tried forcing multiple consecutive out of memory situations but I can't cause the mouse to show up on purpose, but there's a noticeable lag/graphical glitch when it does happen. Which is why I think it's memory related. But idk lol

It's a bug in 5.0. Will be fixed in 5.1.

microsoft patch tuesday update

Just read on Microsoft news that were due a big update today,so just done a scan and indeed there were 13 updates ranging from flash to a hardware update but by mistake I press the update button so I didn't actually see what all the rest of the patches actually did it came in at about 120mb anyone got any info as mine currently downloading
I didn't get the "System Firmware Update - 12/11/2012" until after installing the other updates so be sure to scan for new updates a second time after rebooting.

I had a "System Hardware Update - 2012/12/11", and it was available in the first list of updates. No "System Firmware Update" after the first updates.
Can now have more columns on start screen.
4 columns? How do you set that up?

Can you see if you are still able to lock screen rotation via the brightness menu?
[UPDATE]
For some reason my screen got stuck in one direction, and the rotation lock button also disappeared. A quick reboot and she's buzzing along.

Agreed. I rebooted once and it looked like this for about a half hour
Oh, and it does appear that multitasking/switching apps works a little smoother for extended periods

You still can.
Just applied the update, not noticing any difference yet, except that IE10 asked me if I wanted to re-apply recommended safety settings, to which I said no, because I have turned off MS's flash whitelist so I can use the Napster website.
Haven't noticed any difference to tell you the truth, in fact mine seems a little slower
mine is a lot faster... placebo maybe? but i bet it is faster..

I am on a VIVO Tab RT and I noticed faster performance on my tablet as well.
I'm still unable to connect to my TV with a third-party MicroHDMI-HDMI cable, so I guess I was expecting Microsoft to correct this issue...
Can't say I notice any difference in performance either.

Led notification light issues

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?

May be, May be not. Even light flow has some random problems with LED notifications... For some people it works flawlessly, for some it doesn't... Only way is to try it out...

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.

[Q] Right speaker problem

Hi everyone!
I'm noticing after some days that there's a strange sound coming out from the right speaker, the part wich is in the right side of the tablet.. It mostly happens (and it's louder) after a tap on the screen, when touching something makes a *click* of the system ui... I always have the brightness at a more or less 65%, and the sound set to more than 50%, don't know how much exactly.. , And it happens more frequently when wifi is on. The problem is that the sound continues even when the screen is off, and there's no music playing...
Please, can sombody go to place without noises and check if that happens also to you? Just to know if this is a fault of my device or if it happens to everyone
Thanks!!
Nobody has this issue?? I've tested it again today and I can still hear that sound
I have it too and many other people as well. I have seen a thread about it few days ago on Official Shield Tablet Board...
Here is link to it:

Thanks! So it looks like a normal sound from the SoC... Is there anyway to make it sound less? I think it could broke the speaker, by being constantly "in use", without stoping..
May I ask you what firmware version you are using (did you update via OTA to 1.2.1)?

On mine the sound disappears when I turn off the screen and when I am on home screen not doing anything for few seconds I can hear that speakers do turn off... But I am on software 1.0 (didn't update because no problems other than that)
So this may be software related...

Post Lollipop issues

Hello
I updated from Kitkat yesterday to Lollipop and I'm having a few issues.
Any Google based application won't load. It'll sometimes show the little loading circle, but won't actually do anything. Or it'll just show a white screen.
(I have tried clearing the data and cache and uninstalled the updates for the Play Store to no avail).
Some stock applications won't update, (Notebook, Video Editor, Voice mate, Etc) They'll look like they're downloading their respective updates, but no progress will actually happen.
I waited around 10 or so minutes before giving up.
I'm not really sure what the issues are being caused by, and I haven't been to lucky in finding any fixes or even people with the same problems as me.
If someone can help me out, that would be great. Factory reset is my last resort.
I am on stock LG G2. D800.
Thanks in advance!

I had similar issues, I just rebooted a few times and that seemed to fix it.
I would say if it doesn't work after rebooting, you may need to FR.
Mine was having trouble updating(was getting errors) so I ended up going back to stock 4.4, updating to 20Y, factory resetting, then updating to 30, and I had that issue with the play store, but rebooting after that fixed it for me.

Thanks for your reply.
I sideloaded the Play Store and Play Services and just rebooted my phone, and the Play store is working somewhat. App updates don't seem to want to update.
I then downgraded from the sideloaded Playstore and Play Services, and the Playstore is still working, but it doesn't want to download the updated version of the Playstore, even though I get the notice of a new version being available. So now I'm not sure if I should wait for something to happen, or what.

I'm having the exact same issue. I also had an issue with notification sounds but that worked itself out with a few reboots.
I've read on other forums where users were having LED issues with non-native app notifications ...but my LED is not functioning at all since the update. If anyone has a suggestion, it would be greatly appreciated.
Any root methods for Lollipop stock ?
I have the same issue. Wondering if it's rom's problem.

I do know that the behavior of the notification led has changed. On Kitkat the led would blink about 1 per sec. With Lollipop it will blink twice then a 10 sec pause then 2 quick blinks, then 10 sec pause, etc. Also the notification led will only work with screen off or on lock screen. I hope this helps.
Edit: I did notice the pattern changes with
the app.

Delay when pressing notifications

Hello guys, I recently got my new Oneplus 8T, and, whilst the device is amazing from what I could use it, it has an annoying flaw that I couldn´t find any information of.
When I press a whatsapp, telegram, etc notification, there´s a bit of delay inbetween the press and the start of the app opening. The phone does it the majority of times, as you can see in the video below (at the 10 second mark it opens it right):
Do you have an idea on what could be causing this? Does any of you have the same issue I do? I tried turning off everything related to battery saving, even factory reseting. Any help is much appreciated, thank you in advance!

I've come across some people with this specific flaw, I contacted Oneplus and they told me to factory reset the phone and if that didn't help (which did not, since I've gone wayy further with it, installing HydrogenOS and older versions of OxygenOS and didn't solve the issue), it "might" be a software issue and it "might" be solved in the next software update.
For how much have you been with the phone?
What is bugging me is that this problem is too specific for it to be a hardware issue.

Yes, I still have my Oneplus 7 Pro and it works flawlessly. I think I found something crucial.
The problem lays whitin the "Notifications" apartment. I'll explain myself.
As you can see in this new video I recorded
that weird delay shows when I open a notification coming from the tab "Notifications". BUT, when I open the SAME APP (Play Store) from a notification coming from "Other notifications" there's no delay at all, the phone works flawlessly, see how I press to see how my download is going, there's no lag. It would be wonderful if you could try it yourself, and see if that's the case on you unit too.
Taking this into account, I'm almost 100% sure this is a software related problem, and has nothing to do with hardware, probably a bug.
I'll report it to the bug reporting section of Oneplus and see if they can work on it.

The latest OTA kinda did something for me. I get the delay 5 out of 10 times I press a notification. Used to be 9 out of 10 times lol. It's not completely fixed but it's an improvement. What I did was send a bug report to the Oneplus bug reporting site and they said that they will be working on it.
