So I recently tried splashtop and was amazed. It's an incredible desktop remote app and works perfectly from even external networks. Any who... I noticed that the app crashes anytime I try to run the app in the background and go do something else. At first I considered this acceptable because I figured the app would naturally be unable to be run in the background.
Well I showed my mom this and installed the app on her Note 2012 model and tried running it in the background. It didn't crash. It didn't turn off. It ran perfectly in the background and when I brought the app back up it was where I had left it, still connected to the PC as if I had not pressed the home button at all...
So whats the deal here?
Try not the HD version. They are the same. I had bought the HD version. It doesnt crash, but it is impossible to quit with back key. You have to push the Home key. The standart version doesnt have this bug.

I'm pretty sure it's a ICS issue since both myself and a friend with a LTE Nexus have same issue but wanted to know if anyone got this working. The News360 for phone app works perfectly when launching the app directly and the widget displays fine. However, when I try to launch a story from the widget I get a black screen and the phone starts getting unresponsive. I have to hit home a bunch of times to get out and then eventually the app crashes. I've opened something on their GetSatisfaction page so if you are having this issue please go there and vote it up so they will hopefully fix it. It's a great app and the widget looks/works great on our GN but we just need it to be fixed.
Thanks.

This is the first time I have used a PAC-Man rom, and I have spend a half hour trying to find a couple of settings. If anyone else is familiar with the ROM, and can lend a hand, I would GREATLY appreciate it.
Ok, first off, where to I set the screen timeout? I don't see the setting under the normal settings->display options.
Second, I found that when I look at my recent apps, I see a little app bar with Apollo music player, camer, calendar, calculator, twitter and a couple others in it. Is there any way that I can customize these shortcuts? I play all my music through Google Play Music, and would love to substitute Apollo for it.
For now, that's all I can find (or can't find) wrong. Finally having an S-Off One is really showing off how awesome this phone is.
For the display timeout. Settings>Display&Lights>Sleep.
As for the bar in recents, I'm looking for a way to customize it as well.
Have you noticed any problems with WiFi or loading videos at all? For some reason I can't play Videos through the web or app for YouTube. And my WiFi seems to run at about half speed when I run a speedtest, compared to other devices.
I had problems for a while with YouTube, but without really doing anything it started working (I may have rebooted due to problems with my home screen). I haven't seen away to customize the shortcuts on recent apps yet either. Have you guys charged at all? Mine phone got pretty hot.

I've been running the ROM since we got rumrunner, and I've noticed my phone actually runs cooler while charging and normal use.
I just happened to wake up in the middle of the night and checked it. It was cooler than usual like you mentioned. I dont know what the deal was.

Have you had problems with a laggy launcher at all? Sometimes when I return to the home screen from an app, none of my icons or widgets show up until I hit the app drawer.

I still have yet to figure out how to change the recent apps. I haven't noticed my phone getting hotter than normal, so I'd check to see what apps you have running.
I also haven't had any issues with YouTube, but for some reason, Google Search doesn't want to work. It just looks like it keeps trying to load and nothing ever comes up. It states that a new version is available, but when I try to update, saying that the "Package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again." So, whenever I need to search for something, I have to go into chrome and search, which is a pain.
I updated to the 10/13 nightly and it seems to be running pretty well. Battery life is a bit better too. In the PACman thread it sounds like the 10/14 nightly didn't quite build right.

PAC-Man seems to be the best of all worlds. Unfortunatly, I have had little luck with it on any phone I have tried it on. Works great on my Samsung 7.7 tablet but tried it on my GNEX and S3 and I would have constant issues. Very laggy and random reboots. Some apps also did not place nice with it on the GNEX and S3. I have not tried it on the One as Vanir seems to be running really good.

I did have some issues with lag, but after switching to Nova launcher I haven't had any problems. It does sound like the most recent nightly has some fixes for the laggy launcher. Other than that minor issue, this ROM has been pretty stable.
I'll give it a shot. Thanks.
I am experiencing what seems to be a reproducible phone crash while casting Google Play Music to my TV. If the phone goes to sleep while casting and I wake it, hitting volume down or up buttons while on the lock screen crashes the phone. I couldn't replicate the crash while casting YouTube, only Google Play Music. Also, no crashing when adjusting song volume from lock screen while not casting. When the phone crashes it goes straight to the boot animation, no splash screen shown, and gets stuck there. I have to force shutdown to get it to turn off.
Phone is s-off, rooted, running latest stock.
Anyone with a Chromecast willing to replicate this crash? Any ideas what's going on?
Thanks.

Yep. I've had it happen to me as well. I've never really tried to see what the issue may be though.
Its happening to me too. Are you using xposed mod to wake with volume button? I am and I'm thinking that might be the cause. I'll try it a little later and report back.
Edit. That's not the cause. I turned off that mod and it still happens.
No xposed mod or anything else. All I'm doing is trying to adjust the volume of the song that is playing, which one should be able to do while casting, and the whole phone crashes. Is this an HTC problem or Google problem? midnight assassin, what ROM are you running?

I am experienced the same issue last night while using Netflix. I tried adjusting the volume while using my chromecast and then my phone reboots into the HTC one screen. I have to hold the power button until it hard reboots.

I get this same issue on Verizon HTC One, although it seems the phone doesn't need to be actually asleep, and it will reboot itself - does not need a hard reset from me.
Non Rooted HTC One
I am also having the same issues when trying to change the volume of Play while the screen is off. I have a non rooted Verizon HTC One.
exact same issue with me when using volume rocker after phone goes to sleep while casting Play Music. I am using ATT phone rooted, s-off, running latest ARHD 31.6 rom. this seems to be an issue with chromecast as it only happens when casting.
Thanks for reporting. I'm trying to figure out if the problem is on Google's end or HTC's. My Nexus 7 doesn't have this problem while casting.
I emailed HTC support about it, with a link to this thread. I'll post back if I get a reply.
I've noticed the same issue. I'm running InsertCoin 6.0-5. It took two reboots before I figured out why my phone kept crashing. I've been using my Chromecast for a while, and I only recently went back to a Sense rom. I was running CM 10.2 until recently, and I can't recall having this issue on that rom, but I can't say for certain. I'm sort of glad to see that I'm not the only one having a problem.
Edit: Oh, and I just noticed this is the Verizon forum (came across this thread via Google). I have an AT&T HTC One.
It's still good to know that the problem is not carrier specific.
I did heard back from HTC and they just punted saying that it's a third party app, not their problem, and suggested uninstalling and reinstalling the app, which doesn't fix anything.
Anyone know how to report this to Google?

Typical manufacturer BS. If your OS crashes because of a third party app, then there's something wrong with your OS. A properly designed OS should be incapable of crashing because of a third party app. Never mind the third party in question in this case is Google... If it only crashes under HTC's spin of Android, then HTC broke something and needs to fix it.
I'm tempted to wait until the "sense-ified" release of KitKat comes out to see if that fixes the issue, since I'm waiting on HTC to fix the stupid purple hue low-light camera issue as well.
I have this very same problem, except i dont have to force shutdown. It just reboots sense (takes about 10 seconds) and then all is fine.
I'm rocking a stock (android 4.3) international simlock free unit.
Not rooted, no s-off, no nothing. Fresh out of the box.
Im still having this same problem on my HTC one X running ViperX 4.07. Has anyone found a solution yet?
I've recently experienced a similar issue when casting from the GP Music app to my Sonos speakers. When trying to adjust the volume from within the GP Music app, it causes the phone to reboot. I have an HTC One still running 4.3 (my carrier in the UK dragging their feet a bit!). I was wondering (hoping) whether this is still an issue with 4.4?
So I installed Game Killer recently onto my rooted Nexus 7 and I decided I would try to give myself a bottomless clip on MC4. Now, despite the fact the app was working just fine before the root, it immediately minimizes when I start up now. I click the app and a black screen opens for a couple of milliseconds before the game minimizes back down. I can still see it in the running apps menu but if I try to open it from there it just does the same thing again and again. I've already tried the basic solutions like reinstalling and rebooting my device but that's pretty much all my options.
I know that it's not a crash, seeing as the app is still running. It just doesn't maximize correctly and I can't actually view the game. With that, I've exhausted all my options because I'm not getting any feedback about the error and I can't look at a crash report because it hasn't crashed. I can't find anyone else with this problem either.
Hello,
Just a couple of quick questions regarding Netflix, maybe it only involves a simple fix. Went through and got cm11 running very smooth on the ouya. No hiccups, bugs, or major setbacks with anything. Everything that I use seems to be working fine, except for Netflix.
It loads properly and seems to work, but ever since I hit the "expand" button in the lower right corner, it won't back out of full screen. It would pull any controls whether I click on screen or press any buttons on my keyboard. The only way to back out is by pressing ESC on my keyboard.
I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling the app, rebooting after logging in, deleting the data/cache from the app, also tried installing a couple of older apk's(3.0 & 2.4?) And the problem is still there. Granted its such a minor setback in a huge breakthrough overall, but I was just wondering how to fix that.
Factory reset? Maybe just a bug with Netflix for android? I don't have any other means of trying this out. Regardless, cm11 has brought new life into this console, thanks !!

Yeah, apparently that's normal behavior for us CM11 folks.. (Actually not sure if it's the same in stock ROM because I didn't try it on stock)
I get the same thing no matter what controller or remote I try. It seems like Netflix doesn't recognize or acknowledge player control / commands on the device or ROM. It does respond to 'left' and 'right' arrow commands for rewind a scene/chapter and skip, respectively, however... But to pause you have to hit 'Back' or 'Esc' and hope it actually picks up in the same spot you exited out of the video stream... I don't seem to mind it so much compared to the other issue I'm seeing: Sometimes the video gets stuck or freezes on a frame, but the audio will continue. The video will eventually catch up, but apparently it occurs most often when another device is using just a bit of Internet bandwidth... However, my WDTV box seems to handle that much better. I'm assuming because I never see Netflix do any buffering on the Ouya, and I don't see any setting that helps with that.
I managed to get netflix on a stockplus ROM. I honest don't remember how the controls were, didn't use it much. I also don't remember which apk it was, other than it had a black loading screen.
Overall, its not a deal breaker, since I mainly use xbmc, but having netflix would be a plus. Are all netflix apk's responding that way? On the cm11, I mean.

You can just go to the Play Store and install the "regular" Netflix app on CM11. Works like any tablet version would with a controller.

I've tried that and it seems to retain the full screen setting, which is the problem in question. Even after uninstalling it & reinstalling it, from the play store.
Plus, how do you sync an ouya controller to cm11? That's not that important since I've been using the k400, but to play gta it would be nice to know.
Thanks dude
If you've flashed the zip with all the button layouts, pairing the controller is as simple accessing the Input and Controllers menu, and holding down the U on the Ouya controller until it enters pairing mode. I know I'm missing a step in the menu, but its there, you'll see it. Promise
