I have almost the same issue, but my problem started only about two weeks ago, just like that, it worked without problems for more than a month before that - I use vijendrahs' JB rom 3.1, and after an update of Instagram, the app started freezing, and I've tried reinstalling, tried installing older versions, tried changing the CPU governor, wiped, nothing helped. :/

I tried disabling gpu h/w overlay in the developers option menu it helped, bt for some reason it automatically revert back to the enable state after I uploaded a single picture :s wired! ..have to try re flashing the rom... U could give it a try this way by disabling the h/w overlay..

Unfortunately didn't help, but thanks for the idea. I'll wait if it sorts itself out, if not, then I'll just use Instagram to look at photos, for the time being

same exact problem here !
I tried 2, maybe 3 different (JB)Roms, same problem
and I guess we should not contact(or blame) Instagram for this, right? ...they'll freak out anyways when you tell them that you're using JB on this phone
is it allowed to bump? ..... oh wait

I just installed Instagram v3.3.2 and it works without problems! You can download it here: http://www.androiddrawer.com/7631/download-instagram-3-3-2-app-apk/#.UUxQ9VeYShQ

No thumbnails in youtube app

Hi guys, I'm using latest oficial rom from HTC. When I load youtube application there is no thumbnails. Is there a solution for this bug?
i think its a problem on the youtube side of things as opposed to your application or ROM
OK, but in previous rom (1,19) everything was fine!
Thanks for redirecting me here my friend. I just installed Coreplayer 1.3.2? and it shows it. I think youtube's probably should be fixed soon as I hate it without any of the thumbnails I don't know what i'll be watching!
thanks all!
Same on stock ROM HTC Raphael
Hi guys,
I think this is a problem on Youtube's side indeed. I'm using the original ROM and also have this problem: no thumbnails. A bit of topic, since I'm using a HTC Raphael. Maybe helpfull to mention, the problem started recently. Last week I think.

stock ROM, no thumbnails as well...
when you said you loaded the youtube app, which one did you load? I'm trying to figure out which one I have and where it came from. It came to me from conflipper's Alltel rom for the Vogue but has no version number or anything. The app has 4 tabs, a program guide and verticle list with non-working thumbnails. I've been trying to see if there's an updated app.
Just recently, I loaded the official Youtube Mobile app and it has thumbnails but doesn't use touch scrolling. The video is 100 percent better as well but it has no favorites or history menu. So I'm still looking for a good app and hope whatever one I am using has an update.
Same prob here, stock ROM, no thumbnails!
im using V 2.5 (build1913.1232) of the youtube app.its the version in duttys Xtreme V3 ROM.No Thumbnails here...
Am using duttys v3 xtreme rom and i have no thumbnails in youtube either. why oh why oh why?

It might be simply down to the version of youtube app you've installed on your PPC. I had the same problem after I upgraded to the latest youtube version but it was corrected after uninstalling it and installing a previous version. Give it a try and let me know how it goes.
I can't remember the versions number now, but the latest non-working version is about 8M in size and the working version (for me) is 2.2M.
Hope this help.

I would have thought that by installing a cab over the one in your original rom should remove the one in you rom, but I am not entirely sure. You can give it a go.
You can find the link to download both the latest and the old one version in the link below (see post #2):

Yes, I confirm that with installing the old one YouTube (old version 2,26MB) client everything is OK. Now I have thumbnails Thanks for advise
youtube thumbnails htc missing
this problem occurs if you install an app called webvideo downloader or something similar. to get the thumbnails to show again go into this other app and untick disable thumbnails under settings. this fixes the issue and you should now be able to see thumbnails again in your htc youtube app
have Changed nothing but today i opened my youtube app and the thumbnails were backits magic

Market/Facebook problem

Currently running CM7 stable release with the latest Gingerbread radio.
I am having an annoying issue with Downloading and installing apps from the the market in which i have to 'kill' the market once or twice then it will finally download and install, which is really annoying. This only ever happens to me with the latest CM7 whereas I helped my friend update from RC2/3 to the stable build and he doesn't experience this...what could i do?
Second (not so major annoyance) is the Facebook for Android app keeps FCing when i navigate through the app. I can browse my newsfeed without trouble, comment on statuses and such but as soon as i come out from there it instantly FCs!! I am using LPP (latest one) and i am aware that some users were experiencing issues not too different to mine recently, and its got me wondering if it's that?
I've already fully wiped and re installed the ROM and still the problem persists
Maybe a caching issue. Check the md5 sum of the rom you downloaded.
The Facebook app is like that. Because Facebook couldn't be bothered to test, the app FC's most of the time. It is annoying but it will take forever to update it because Facebook is ****. It happens to me btw.

Cool thanks mate! I've gone to using Flow Free on the market which is better anyways. It's ad supported but Adfree FTW?! I don't think there's anything wrong with the file as i used the very same .zip on my friend's phone...
For your market issues, it could be a caching issue. Post in the CM7 thread or have a look through it. You'll prob get a better response.

Google Keep crashing

Has anyone tried the new Google Keep app? Mine just FCs on launch.
Sent from my SPH-L900
Yeah works perfectly for me try to un installed and reinstall
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
I am not on your phone platform, but found this thread searching for others with Google Keep problems. I installed Keep last night, fired it up and it crashed. Tried again,, crashed. Rebooted the phone and when it came back it was like it had lost a bunch of 'data files' . By that I meant the phone acted as though it was factory reset, yet all apps were there. 90% of them would not run and those that did acted like they were just installed and had none of my settings. Restored data only via Titanium Backup and had to reinstall a couple apps. I may wait awhile and see if it was just me that had this kind of failure.
It works fine for me.
It's not all that exciting, but it's functional.
same here, used to work with stock 4.0.4 but since I have installed (from scratch) Alliancerom 4.1.2 on my S2, it keeps crashing on launch...
any idea ?
Are you guys having issues while running a custom ROM? I had issues with Keep on NoWizAOSP until the developer tweaked something and then it started working.
I had problems with NoWiz. Other ROMs worked fine w/Keep. I'm going to grab the latest NoWiz and see if it's working now.

Using jellybomb Rom v15 and Google keep works fine for me. Not sure it will replace evernote but time may tell.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
The latest NoWizMod (v1.4.6) has fixed the issue for me. It's a handy little cloud note app. I'm expecting Google to add a lot more features as time goes on.

Not on SGN II, but same behavior. Crashes on launch, every single time. Installed, re-installed, rebooted, et al. It's not liking the Holics rom I'm running it seems... That is strange... and would make it the first ever app to dislike this rom. Thoughts anyone ?

if it can help, in my case it was caused by a customised Google Play (official Google Play but with a dark theme) bundled in Rom Alliance.
I had to uninstall it and reinstall the standard Google Play and it worked.
hope it will help.
Thanks for the hint. I don't have a themed or homebrewed version of Play, so no luck there. I can find random reports here and there of people experiencing this, on various phones with various - but always cooked - roms. So my guess is that Keep calls on something possibly not included in some of the roms out there... Speaking out my **s of course, as I have in fact no idea
Guess I'll have to wait a few days/weeks and see what the deal is.

I figured out the problem. You have to edit your build.prop file located in the system folder. You have to be rooted to do this.
Look for the line that says ro.build.type=user and change it to ro.build.type=userdebug
Then make sure to reboot the device.
Now it should work. I was having the same problem. ?

No notifications from Facebook Messenger

Even the best of us get problems. Problems we can't solve with our own knowledge.
Basically, running newest Facebook Messenger on my Xperia Arc S. Even though messages come in perfectly, I do not get any notifications about the received message. A tiny 1 appears on the Messenger icon, but that's all (attached screenshot). Chat Heads does not appear, no notification in the status bar (SystemUI) nor any vibration or sound. I have checked all notification settings, everything is turned on and should be working.
The only vibration, that happens at all, is when the Messenger is already open and someone else (than current conversation) sends me a message.
Current phone setup is Gin2JellyBean ROM (Android 2.3.7), version 2.5.2, with GB Lupus v2 kernel and 64 baseband.
I have tried clearing app data, reinstalling Messenger app, reinstalling ROM and kernel, changing baseband, tried also DooMKernel v22. On the internet, I found recommendations to not use more than one Facebook Android app, though it did not fix it either.
Does anyone have any ideas, possible solutions? Or has anyone occurred similar thing?
Just to add, I will not move over to another ROM.
Well, GB is quite old, and the apps keep getting updated so there may be something in GB breaking the notification mechanism. Did you check with someone else on the same ROM if they had the same problem?
You may also want to try with an older version of Facebook messenger and see if it works.

I was expecting people with same ROM to post here, if they have such issue or not.
GB is the only firmware, that currently works out for me, thereby I do not wish to change ROMs. None of the ICS ROMs has satisfied me yet.
Will try out older version of the app.
EDIT: Older version (2.7.2) made no difference, old design, but still same issue with the notifications.

try flashing framework-res from another rom. If problem is still there, include systemUI. I had this one problem before about notifications because frameworkxml doesn't stack with custom systemUI.
Did you freeze google play services? Its the main cause of not getting notifications. Btw i had done that so i didnt get.
Edit: on ics roms also the same stuff. Not get notifications. Maybe the app has some issue.

Hmm, this may be a problem, as framework-res is tightly linked to many parts of the system and changing it may cause issues. I will try it out and see if I can fix it.

I doubt the issue lies there, though will try it out.
EDIT: I must have misread the first time. I never froze that app, as it is vital at my daily usage.
Time to update on this issue. I just installed an ICS ROM, Anzumi 1.3, and the issue is still around. Using stock kernel and stock baseband from .587 firmware (which is 77, if I am not mistaken) and newest Messenger.
Gonna do a last try with stock firmware some time soon...
EDIT: Attached picture of logcat when I receive a Facebook message. Starting with the first line of 12-15 20:37:22:801
EDIT again: Using older version (2.7.2-release) now works, will try it out for more time.
So its app issue or maybe we are missing some lib files for them to work. We have to check it on stock ics. If it works there then we can confirm the rom developers removed some libs for space or whatsoever reason
Edit: I'm using kitkat and i face same issue here

Since the app failed to work on GB and ICS both (and now as well KitKat), then I am feeling the issue lies within the application.

Hello
An update on this. I updated messenger app from playstore. I have playservices freezed and also no native facebook app installed. Now messenger works well. Even notification arrives properly and even those chat pop ups work.
So I can conclude this update solves that issue.

Camera crashes on open

When the problem first started I was running CyanogenMod 11 nightly. It ran sporadically and I replaced the battery, which fixed all of the problems I was experiencing except for the camera crash. I tried out SlimRom and then back to CM but it doesn't seem to work on any ROMs. I also tried disabling the built in camera and using the Google camera, and vice versa.
There are two error it gives:
Camera Error!
Cannot connect to camera.
And:
Unfortunately, camera has stopped.
I assume that the first error is given by the application and the second error is given by android itself.
The really weird thing, is that the CamScanner app can access my camera fine without crashing.
I have just been dealing with the issue, because I have tried everything I can think of to fix it. But I would like to use my camera as I am sure anyone could understand.
If anyone could brainstorm up any ideas as to why its crashing, feel free to share.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using XDA Free mobile app
After updating Cyanogenmod to the latest nightly, the problem persists.
For anyone who has the same problem, I did deep digging on the web and found some flashable zips marketing themselves as camera fixes, but all of then failed.
I did however come up with a work around that I am perfectly comfortable with keeping permanently. I installed the ex-cyanogenmod camera -- Focal.
Focal is on the Google play store and hasn't crashed for me once yet. Why get rid of something that ain't broke, Cyanogenmod?

i think the slimROM thread has a camera-fix-.zip on it , or did. but i see you fixed the issue.:good:
"all i can really do , is stay out of my own way and let the will of heaven be done"
I found at least 4 different ones for the Galaxy S3 but all of them failed. I'll have look into the SlimRom one though because I don't think that was one of the ones I tried.
