Develop Bugs

Some times i cant pick up the.incoming call.

My defy is having one problem. Its actually random. Sometimes when a call comes, i am not able to pick it up. The touch simply wont work. Then i have to cut the call using the power button and call them back.

Are you using SetVSel? If yes then what settings are you using?

Im getting rid of mine because of the same issue. It seems to randomly break during some incoming calls. Sometimes the touch sensors stop working, sometimes it fails to to bring up the answer/reject lock screen and just brings up the normal one. Other times it goes into a frenzy of randomly pressing the buttons and touch screen all by itself while ignoring anything I do to try and prevent it. Its a great device, but as a phone its been crap for me.
I dont use setvsel because it caused issues with the graphics on my defy, even at 850 it caused corruption and freezing on anything 3d. I had the call answering issues before rooting and unstalling setvsel btw

Yeap that's what I meant.
Well I'm not entirely sure, but I remember someone mentioning he had trouble picking up calls because his frequency was too low but yours seem fine.
Have you tried disabling SetVSel to see if it works OK without it?

XDA app? where did you get it?

Sometimes i cant able to lift the call
even i am not able to lift the call sometimes the touch is not working at the time by clicking the power button then the call is ending.

Yeah, i got it from the market.

But its not happening always, till now it has happened for me like 5 times in 3 months! so i dont think i will b able to check it after switching the setvsel off. I will have to stop it like 1 month or some to confirm it! any other option?

happens here too, no root, no overclocking tools. plain stock defy but happens
with launcher ex as well. mostly when on the charger or been not in use for a
few hours.

oh ok, so its not the problem of overclocking/undervolting! So I'm happy. I thought like I will have to remove the root and all!
But still, why is this even happening??
Will it get fixed on the froyo update?? :/

I have this problem with mine. Totally stock and it didn't happen until AFTER I updated to Froyo. It has happened about 5 times now.

You sure it will be fixed in froyo? Yesterday my boss was calling me to discuss something imp and I could not pick up the call because of this damn issue, I had to disconnect the call with the power button and called him back :-|

Did you miss my post? I never had this problem until AFTER I updated to froyo. Now, I am experiencing it on occasion. This would lead me to believe that something else is amiss.
Are you guys using a screen protector?

i have indian rom , but i have faced this issue...and i dont know why it happend....faced 2 to 3 times now...hoping to get an solution.....one solution is just lock and unlock it again by press and release pow button i think it solves the issue of random screen freeze

Annoying clicking sound!

Hello,
so I'm with my 3th GNex now! with the 1st one the USB Port suddently stopped working properly. The 2nd one had a flawed display (had it for only 3 days but did notice the same problem with my 3th one)
My 3th one is okay but there is one problem: After 3 secs of any sound being played I can here a clicking/poppping sound coming from my speaker. This is very annoying when I've the normal Touchsounds on (I disabled them because of this...)
So I searched on google a bit and many users seem to have the same problem ( http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=22307 ).
It seems to be unclear if this is a hard- or software issue.
So I wanted to ask you guys do you have this issue aswell? Is there a fix for this? Hard- or software issue, what do you think? Should I again exchange my phone for a new one risking it to have a even louder clicking sound?!

I had this same issue and I can safely say its software related. If you flash Francos latest kernel he has this issue fixed. If your unrooted I'm not too sure what options you might have (apart from exchanging the device again?).

I read about the fix on francos kernel....the problem though is, that I already use his kernel...last version r110...the fix doesn't work for my phone

Weird. I don't use his nightlies, have you tried M2?

m2 doesnt even have the fix.

What's your software version? I'm on stock 4.0.2 and have no issues.

are you sure you dont have it? play any sound in a quiet room and listen closely. i only noticed it after reading about it and checking for it... shouldnt have done that. and the volume seems to vary from day to day

Nope didn't have it. Played some music tracks and listened to the touch sounds. Didn't got any clicking sounds after that.

This has been discussed at length here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1490335
Keep in mind that this happens on many devices. For the people who say they don't hear it, perhaps they don't know what to listen for or perhaps they are just lucky and their particular device isn't affected by the problem.

If that's actually the case then it must have been fixed in CM9 as I definitely had this issue.

[Q] Continous Vibration

Hello people!
I am a new member with XDA Developers
Anyways, I would like to ask if any of you face this problem where at any random time the phone would start vibrating continously until you shut down the phone and is there a fix for this?

Hello and welcome the the XDA Forum!
I've found at time that the app "Whatsapp" when I get a message, My phone will constantly vibrate until the screen goes off for 5-10 seconds then it's fine until I turn the screen / unlock the phone, I think it's a common problem as I remember someone else had this issue.

Yes, and it happens always the best time... meetings, driving...etc.

never happen to me
but if it happened, I'll flash a new fresh ROM and see if it solves the problem

Happens to mine, seems like it was only when Whatsapp and something else had a notification at the same time.

Unfortunately mine too. No more idea.

Damn, mine is also REV 0.6 as well.

Still same problem
Mine also rev 0.6
Tried Rebel Rom, Bagux, Bionic Cow 2 v 7, stock DXLM3, stock XXLM8 , all still has the same random vibration.
And the vibration won't stop until you reboot.
Probably hardware related?

This happens to me since the first day I got this phone...
Honestly, it's annoying me !
Cause the only way to Stop it, is a reboot..
Sometimes it starts to vibrate in school, and as Im using a TPU SoftCase it's even more uncomfortable...
I thaught I was the only one, but seems like it affects all Wonders..
No matter which Rom I use, everytime the same Problem
A random time.

Several issues with JB

Recently I bought myself a Galaxy Nexus after owning a Nexus S for 1,5 year.
I never had issues with the Nexus S (even with JB), however this seems a different story on the GNX.
My issues:
- Youtube doesn't play videos and crashes
- Gallery crashes when looking at videos. I get a black screen when playing a video but it doesn't start to play, when I press back the system doesn't react, pressing home returns me to the home screen.
- Face unlock doesn't start it's process and I'm redirected to enter my PIN
Any ideas? I noticed the factory JB 4.1.1 image is released, maybe I should place a clean image on my GNX?
Thanks for all comments!

Are you currently on a stock or custom ROM?

I have this problem here many and many times too with a stock rom.. Yesterday I reinstalled the factory ROM 4.1.1 but the problem persists, I think it's a bug in this version because in 4.0.4 doesn't have this problems..

I don't have this problem and I very much doubt many do. I suspect you may have a hardware problem. Probably faulty memory.

I don't think is a problem of faulty memory, it is difficult to reproduce this bug, you must open a video in the gallery or on youtube, watch the video and pause, after a few minutes reopen a video and do that sometimes and you have the problem ..

I've never had anything like this happen on jb.. .

I don't have this problem - did you try deleting the Youtube app and reinstalling it?
It might be worth trying to do a total hardware reset if you have a couple hours.

I've done it already, I've deleted the cache's app and the problem continues, it does not happen right the first time, occurs after about 10 times you watch a video and then watch again ..

It's a new phone. It came with ICS 4.0.1 which went to the OTA upgrade path: 4.0.2, 4.0.4 and then 4.1.1. So completely stock.
I also notice that the camera app doesn't come up (the same problem which does occur when unlocking with face unlock).
Pictures from the gallery show up without problems.
What are the best steps to have a complete hardware reset? Flashing the stock JB 4.1.1 factory image via fastboot?
If it's hardware defect, is there a offline diagnostic tool I can run on my GNX?
I appreciate all replies!

For me the only way to solve that is using the 4.0.4 stock ROM

Today I returned my Galaxy Nexus to the shop. I will get a new one as soon they're back on stock.
I returned to my Nexus S which has JB, unfortunately it seems JB is still not as stable as ICS. Had some Google Talk crashes today.
Never had a crash on my Nexus S on ICS.

Edit: Nevermind I didn't read your last post completely.
Glad to see you're getting a new one
I'm also waiting for a replacement for mines (kept crashing randomly). It will arrive on thursday.

I think I figured out how to solve these bugs, here they stopped to occur after disabling facial recognition, use another way to unlock your phone and make sure that they stopped

Probably the people who reported not having the bug doesn't use face recognition, I think this is the reason for very few people reporting this bug.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

I've never had these issues and I used face recognition since the first day I got the phone.

Meanwhile I got a brand new Galaxy Nexus, however after one week of use the same problems returned!
I wonder if an app or something else is causing these problems.

I have not had these issues, you probably have a faulty phone.

It can't be that I have two times a faulty phone? First one was delivered with the Google ROM, the second one with the Samsung ROM which I changed immediately to the official yakyu ROM.

Xperia M touchscreen stops responding randomly

Hi, Im new to the forum but used roms for another device in the past.
I wasnt able to find information regarding to this trough days, my phone touchscreen stops working randomly on stock rom [15.1.c.1.17], have anyone had this problem? Is it sw or hw related?
Thanks, phone is awesome when the ts works but this is driving me crazy... thanks

If you haven't modify the software then it must be hardware related.
What modifications did you do? Did it have the problem from the start(when you bought it)?

If it doesn't happen under specific conditions (for instance, while playing the game, or during the call), it is most likely hardware related, my best bet is that screen digitizer is either faulty or not connected properly to the motherboard. Have you dropped/spilled something on your phone? If not, you should return your phone for a warranty repair.

Its randomly occuring, its fixed after reboot or it will work itself again after a while, sometimes a couple of minutes others a couple hours, phone is new, bough on jan 17. Havent dropped it or spilled anything on it... problem is I updated from stock rom from the provider to an official by sony and dont have a backup of it :/.

Update to the newest version ends in 2.8 that's the newest one see if that helps
