Ever since the leaked and official release of ICS, I've been experiencing problems with my apps hanging. I don't know if its the ROM I'm using (both darkside 3 and 4.0.4) ICS, or the launcher (apex). I've switched to the stock touch wiz launcher a few times and experienced the app hanging so I don't think launchers are the issue, but since I've only been using darkside ROMs, I don't know if it's limited to the ROM or my phone. Pretty much after a few hours of use, I reach a point where I can't open apps or go into the app drawer yet I'm able to scroll through the home screens. I always have to restart my phone in order to fix the problem and even after running the darkside cache wipe, the problem persists. Is there any way to get past this?

Hi all,
Sometimes when I'm in an app and go back to the home screen, my wallpaper will scale down and show black bars up top and at the bottom (letterbox). Only fix is restarting. Even re applying the wallpaper doesn't help.
Any one else having this issue? Running the 4.0.4 ROM from the dev section.

Bump.
Just happened again after opening exDialer and going back to home.
Would love it if somebody could give me a pointer as to how to troubleshoot this. There are no wallpaper setting apps installed, FYI. Just the stock gallery.
Here's a screenshot of before and after. You'll notice the top and bottom letterboxes in the after pic. Just randomly happens, and only a restart fixes it.
I've never experienced this issue. Maybe its an ADW Launcher bug? Does this happen with the stock launcher?
Never had the stock launcher on long enough to tell, hah. Guess I'll try it for a day.

It's an adw ex thing. I installed apex launcher beta, which is a lot better and faster on ics imo, and the issue went away.

Bumping this, as I recently started having the same issue on Nova Launcher.Its doing this on every ROM I try. Any ideas?
Randomly when I go to send a text message, the letters I type don't show up. I have to close the messaging app fully and relaunch it and everything is fine.
I was rooted, with franco kernel and a bunch of mods/themes/apps installed. Right now I restored to stock ICS. Re-rooted, flashed aokp milestone 4 and haven't downloaded any apps and I just experienced the issue again.
Also, I am using stock keyboard.
Any ideas?

I believe this is a general issue with ICS, I have the same exact problem sometimes (1/~30 times) no matter what kernel/rom combo I'm using.
Definitely have never seen this before and i text like mad. But i also use handcent from day 1 so it might be the stock text app.
This happened to me once in a market app but hasn't occurred in the messaging app

It had the same thing happen to me quite often back on my HTC Legend on CM7 with Handcent, but never so far on my new Gnex. I liked the stock messaging app and even gave up on Handcent.

I can also confirm this happening very rarely. aokp/franco

Have definitely seen this more than a few times. I put it down to Swiftkey X compatibly issues though...

I think it also happens in the Market for me too. I dont really remember though. I do see it rarely in my messaging app. Although its very rare it does get annoying.

Thats the thing, I had swype installed and thought it was that. Like I said just did a reset and fresh install of everything. Cant be any third party apps.
Not me personally, but a friend who's on complete stock ICS has complained of this happening every so often. I've never seen it on mine.

So it's still happening with the Stock Keyboard? Interesting...Well, all we can wait for is a fix from the big G. I would have no idea where to start looking for problems with this sort of thing!
Yep have had this problem every morning for about the past week. I need to restart the phone to fix it.
I am rooted on stock 4.0.2 and normally use Swype however it happens on other keyboards too

Anyone experiencing the camera app freezing for few seconds if trying to take a pic without touching the screen to focus first?
Thanx
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
nope, it works fine on my Nexus!
try to install the camera app again (not the same camera app, or same but from other Jelly Bean ROM which is flashable via CWM...), maybe it works better then.
Google haven't released the source code of JB yet, and all rom's out there are still in some sort of "beta". Happened to me twice, maybe three times, and I have JB on my GNex since last week.
Don't think you should bother with that problem, it should be fixed soon.
Frozen a couple times for me in the last week using it. One was a full phone crash. I'm sure they'll work out the kinks.
On 100% stock 4.1 GSM.
So I'm running cm7 with nyan kernel and when I type on my keyboard it sometimes misses a character. Is this kernel related would flashing another kernel fix it? I remember this was a problem back on froyo and there was the flashable zips to fix it but I haven't seen anything like that in a while.
Also, I restored a backup of my swype keyboard (the blue one from most of the tw themes) and it works perfectly, but everytime I reboot I get all these FC's on it and it doesn't go away until I restore "app only" in tb. Its not that big of a problem but its annoying. Is there any way to get rid of that? I believe it also is a cm7 related issue since it didn't happen to me on tw or cm9.

I've had a similar problem with CM9 Nightly on Nyan ICS. Once I unrooted back to stock using ODIN and rooted again (clean install) with the same ROM, with a different kernel this time, my keyboard seemed to run smooth.
My keyboards problem was it would disappear outta the blue.. I had to exit out of my messaging app completely, sometimes even thatt wouldn't do it.
Hope that helps somehow!

I currently went back to tpr so if I go back I will try to flash a different kernel cuz I was also using nyan kernel so maybe that would help. Thanks.

Good ROM. Welcome anytime, Let me know how that goes.

Been running this Rom for 2 days now. Anytime i try to play a music track the app freezes and crashes. Some people have said after flashing the rom to clear the dalvik and cache again. I have tried it and it still does not work. This seems to be the only issue i am having with it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
FYI, i would have posted this in the liquid smooth rom page but due to having less than ten posts i cant. I dont consider myself a newb to flashing as i have been doing it since the OG EVO was released. :silly:
Noobish move. Tried a different kernel and it works fine now. Ktoonsesz is what was causing it to crash for whatever reason.
Running on lean kernel rc9 and everything is fine now
