[Q] Flash 11 problems

I have a serious problem with my flash player I think. I am unable to view youtube videos in more than 360p, at 480p the video lags like hell and the phone becomes quite unresponsive, 720p is out of the question. Moreover, the full screen button doesn't work it just shows a blank screen when pressed and upon pressing return the browser sees the flash object as an image and the video wont load.
Facebook chat is almost always placed in wrong position, half of the buttons don't work.
This has happened to me on all ROMs but the fullscreen bug only occurred in the ICS(RC1) and I have tired several different methods to fix these issues, still no luck.
So I wanted to know is this normal for flash player to behave like this? Or Do I have some sort of an issue?

Can't pass Starting Apps in MM roms

Dear you guys,
I don't know what has happened to my d850 but I can't use any MM ROMs. [emoji30] .
I have tried a three ROMs, including Resurrection, unofficial CM, and AICP. The flashing itself all went fine (or so they seemed) and boot animation started. During this process, I could here small sound coming from the Camera area (I can't say for sure it was the Can, just the top area of the phone). Then the optimizing process. The phone wouldn't pass "Starting Apps" message. And that sound, which came at regular intervals, was still heard.
The phone is now running CM12.1, rather smoothly. Camera would crash if I switched to front cam.
Anybody in the same situation? Any work around?

MIUI 12 lag issue

Hello, does anyone experience lag issues with the MIUI 12 update? Specifically MIUI 12.0.2 Global Stable (QJKEUXM).
There are really noticeable frame drops on the system UI itself, the pulling down of Control Center/Notifications panel is laggy. Opening the Poco launcher apps drawer is like 5-10 fps. Scrolling is really not smooth. Frame drops are also present in MLBB.

I haven't encountered such issues. Have you tried performing a factory reset?

Fixed
The lag issue was gone after I restarted the phone. I haven't performed any factory reset or debloat it.

Hi. For me ui, net browsing and gaming runs perfectly. But i have problem with suttering/frameskips in 60fps videos - on youtube, vlc player, even in camera app viewer. Sometimes its ok and the movies play perfectly smooth, but after some time the problem come back. Looks like software bug, maybe the problem is with cpu/gpu driver that accelerate decoding.

I can confirm lagging issue on some videos. Looks like an update to MIUI 12 caused that.
I have a problem with all videos played through Canal + Europe application even in 480p and 1080p. It doesn't matter.
Sometimes it is happening in HBO go app as well so it is not application issue.
Looks like some video drivers, codecs are missing for CPU ?

Confirmed
I can confirm this problem on my GFs poco f2 pro. After some time it just started lagging while pulling down the notifications menu. Restarting solves the problem temporarily but it occurs again after some time.

I've had no issues, however I did do a factory reset after the major update.

Miui 12 definitely lags more than miui 11 but the battery life is pretty good. For me the things that bother me are full screen gesture stutters and YouTube portrait to landscape rotation stutter which doesn't happen all the time only every once in a while. If you reboot your phone and try swiping down notifications at the start you will also notice stutter but this goes away after a few seconds. It may come back again the longer you use it without rebooting and could need a reboot again.
Miui 12 android 11 fixes some of these stutters but the battery life wasn't as good as Android 10 when I tested it and there are a few incompatible apps for now like 3rd party launchers and gestures. One of the ways to fix miui system gesture and launcher lag is to actually use 3rd party apps. I'm hoping updates improve battery life but keep the smooth performance. Either that or wait for custom roms because snapdragon 865 should not be thls sluggish and I think many know it's because of miui

Me too

That "major update" is from Android 10 to 11? In that case, surely it is better to make a factory reset.

No issues so far.... Still as fast as lightning....

SAME PROBLEM I AM FACING ON MY POCO M2 PRO...DID YOUR PROBLEM SOLVED? PLS LET ME KNOW

I am using POCO M2 PRO and after updating from MIUI 11 to MIUI 12 my phone started lagging but after reboot its works fine for 5-7 days, then its again start Lagging...after software reinstall by service center problem still not solved....what should I do now?

For all questions about the POCO PRO F2 in official Rom. https://c.poco.net/global/

I was having same problems, especially with gestures on, with MIUI12 update on Redmi note 8t (willow). 12.0.1.0 didn't resolve anything, but the newest (12.0.2.0 RU) update made recents list / task view lag disappear. What was left is the most prominent lag, the one when swiping up to enter recents from the home screen. Switching to an alternative launcher (Nova Launcher) resolved that, though the entire sequence of crossfading from home screen to recents is unable to render, which i don't mind, as long as it runs smooth.
Now, i've done some changes in developer options, namely disabling logging and system tracing. Im not 100% sure, but it seems that increasing system tracing buffer to the maximum also made some change, but nothing i could do would make the home screen to recents lag disappear.

[HELP] Camera won't work after Android 11 Update + Possible Cause?

I was previously on android 10 i believe just a few days ago and my camera was working just fine. The other day I got a notification telling me to update to android 11...so i did and didn't think anything of it.
I use my camera alot for photography so this is very important to me, google camera or any app that uses your camera no longer works.
Example 1: As soon as I launch google camera it just crashes.
Example 2: Snapchat, instagram, or any other apps just give me the error like "snapchat was unable to open the camera".
I know a lot of people are getting this same issue because if you go to the play store and go to google camera app and sort reviews by recent tons of users are experiencing this.
I have two theories on what's causing this.
Theory 1: I've been using an app called "lens cap - disable camera" for over a year now just for peace of mind, I guess it used some sort of device administrator priveledges to block all apps from accessing the camera.
I believe I had the lens cap on (camera disabled) before and when I started updating to android 11 and I think that may have caused a weird break in permissions that somehow has me permanently unable to use the camera anymore.
The reason why this is something I suspect is because according to the developer of that app "android 11 removed most of the functionality of device administrator in favor of enterprise work profiles" (not sure what this means) but I think for some reason this caused it to get permanently blocked.
I have the github page for the apps source code if anyone can possibly look at it and see what exactly the app was changing in the first place because then maybe that way someone can possibly come up with a way to fix mine and many others cameras.
Edit: Apparently I'm not allowed to post links on a new account but the program can be found on github called LensCap by a user named percula
Theory 2: Android 11 just broke the camera by itself and the lens cap app maybe has nothing to do with it.
Ive already done all the obvious troubleshooting like resetting permission/preferences, restarting in safe mode, uninstalling and reinstalling camera apps + clearing cache and storage etc
Sorry of my formatting or grammar is sloppy at all I've had a long day and I just really want to get this working again

If none of your troubleshooting fixed the issue, I think the next option is to do a full reset (using recovery - not the selection in the settings menu). Another alternative is to flash the full factory image and allow it to factory reset the phone as well.
This will mean loosing all your app data and pictures, etc, so back up before you do it. But I am confident it will fix your issue, regardless of the actual cause.

So would you recommend doing "recovery" or "flashing"? Also how do I get to this "recovery" thing,
originally I was thinking about trying to downgrade back to android 10 but from what I remember the steps looked really confusing ;w;
Apparently a lot of people are getting this issue but in the end they said they had to try and RMA it, so I hope recovering or flashing fixes it, kinda worried this update actually permabricked something in my phone.
sorry if its a dumb question I don't know much about phone stuffs
thank you for your response.

There's definitely an issue with android 11 and the camera.
I didnt have any issues on the beta 2, 2.5, or 3. But upon installing the public, official version.. the camera fails. I've tried 2 factory resets. I've installed the ota.zip via adb sideload. And then did a complete format and install of the full image.
Here's what issue I'm having, personally:
When I open the gcam app, it freezes for about 15 seconds. Then I get the "not responding" screen. If I hit wait, about 15 second later, I get the camera on and it's images are on the screen. But it's so laggy that it's not even functional. For instance, If I try to zoom in, it's about 20 seconds until it actually does. Same for taking a picture. I have sent bug reports to them.
I'm gonna downgrade to a better/smoother version. Probably a custom android 10.
Like others, I use it24/7. The pixel 3a is an incredible camera. I hope it's fixed soon.

I don't even know where to post, I came here looking for a solution, but looks like there may be none, other than going back to Android 10 and never ever installing any kind of update on this phone.
I bought the 3a because of the camera, and because I was taking crappy quality pix of my toddler with my previous phone. A9 worked great, A10 worked great. Camera almost instant, switching from Camera, to Video to Portrait, no problem. Message that A11 is available, so hey why not, it's not IOS. Wrong. It totally screwed me, the camera takes from 1-8 seconds to start, to switch between modes. If I double click power when locked camera start (with delays), I then turn it off using power button, when I unlock the phone the camera app is open.
Sometimes when I open it a second time it stays on the setting I chose before (i.e. portrait, or video - not camera default - this would be a nice toggle in the options though - say if you always shoot portrait).
Portrait mode has reversed the picture order (left/right - blur/no blur).
I have missed many shots of my little one since I've upgraded because of this garbage update.
I have a lot of apps that aren't the "latest" version, that work as I need them to; can someone suggest an app that will let me back up my exact versions, then reinstall them after? I have no idea if such a backup/restore app could also save the app data; I don't have root
Also, if someone could point me to a post which shows the way to switch back to Android 10, step by step, I would appreciate it. If I need to reload all the apps and info, I might as well go back to a known working version.
I have also noticed that some other apps are acting funky now. A once rock stable and reliable phone, these days I just want to throw it straight down at the pavement with all my strength... often...

I have the same issue. Have you resolved it yet. My camera app is working but other app using camera gives error.i had also lenscap and problem arised after update to android 11

ColorOS 12 crashes, hangs and reboots

Anyone else having terrible problems with their Find X2 Pro since installing ColorOS12?
The camera works maybe 1 time in 5, the others it loads and the horizon line moves, but the picture doesn't update and I can't take photos.
Other apps are regularly hanging or crashing back to launcher and the phone has rebooted itself twice
It's it possible to downgrade from 12 to 11? My phone was perfect before and now it's unreliable as hell.

Turning off the extra 3GB of RAM in storage (Developer options) appears to have fixed it!

I have experienced random freezing for a little while now, maybe since the last system update but possibly already since before that.
Another thing that happens is that swiping my home screen left or right does something completely different, and swiping from the top edge down to bring that quick menu also fails sometimes. These things were rare though, mostly it was random freezes that was bugging me.
Today it got so bad that I found this post.
I tried the 3GB option, the jury is still out. So far so good.
Also, I have a different Oppo than you: I have the Oppo Reno 5 5G.
I'll try to report back in a few days.

I have a problem with the autofocus in 4k30 video mode (and live HDR). It is cleary slower than on 4k60 mode and doesn't focus well.
Plus sometimes when i shoot 48MP mode with ultrawide lens i got this result :
