Data has sporadic freezes

It happens a lot on the xda app, and noticing it alot on instagram. I see no data activity for 10 seconds then it will animate and data will load whatever im browsing. Dont use facebook or twitter. Infact I never used instagram till yesterday and its doing same thing as xda, which is what I browse with the most. I thought it was just the xda site but I guess not. My wife hasnt noticed it in hers but i will be trying her phone out now that I know its the phone.
Surprised I havent found other complaing. Maybe I need to swap this thing out

No issues like that on mine. Data seems to always be smooth.

Sounds like a hardware issue. My iPhone 4S had this issue and my replacement was perfect.

Iam gettting that on xda too. I am using dagr8 rom.

I noticed it yesterday too on the XDA app. Everything else is smooth except for the app. I had to use the browser instead

She had the data freezes on the xda app today but she also said her Facebook app does it too

*#*#4636#*#* will get you a ping test - choose "Info," then "Device information," which is actually telephone information. You can also get an app "Hidden Menus" from the Market which will save you the effort of keying all that in
*#0*# works to get into the Service Menu to test the rest of the phone out.

I am wondering if it's a modem issue. Any ideas if we have any other modems and can we flash modems from the first Note? I saw dagr8's thread on modems but no Att modems available to download. They are all bad links. I think they were having issues with them. I also saw someone posted a newer modem but it needs to be packaged in a zip.

I need multi view so I can watch and run ping the same time as browsing. I have to switch over to pinging app when I see no activity and buy the time I switch over its pinging away. It stops pinging when I am switched over on another app

I would make sure that none of your apps are set to auto update. Other than that you can use a third party app like traffic monitor to see what is using your data.

I'm getting them five or six times a night, my wife is worried I'm on my phone at all hours of the night from the bill. I would really like to find the source of the media/data and put a stop to it.
How do I make sure my apps don't auto update? (Sorry, I'm new to Android, so be patient)

Open Google Play, select your menu button, select "my apps" and then check they are not set to auto update. You should also check settings and make sure auto update is not set as default.

Go into settings>data usage and it should tell you exactly what is using data and how much.

What does the data usage on the phone say?
Settings > Data Usage
That should tell you what app is using the data. It could be a whole bunch of things.
MobileAP widget was quite the culprit for unexpected data use on gingerbread.

Did that before I went to sleep. Also here is a sample of the ones using data through the night. I'm on wifi all night but whatever is doing this uses actual phone data.

This is not a Note 2 problem but an ATT problem. My mother had the exact same problem on a much simpler phone that didn't even have a data plan attached to it. I looked at her bill online and there were countless small data exchanges over a short period of time. I spoke to ATT and told them she doesn't even have a data plan and her phone is not one to use data. I had to forcibly block Internet data from exchanging back and forth on the account level. Obviously you can't use that as a solution. Don't let them tell you it's your device because chances are it's not.

YouTube buffering problem

A while ago I started encountering a problem with the YouTube app. 95% of the time when I load up a video it buffers every 15 seconds. I kill the app, toggle my wifi on and off, go back to the app and it loads the videos normally quick for 20 minutes, then it starts buffering again... I tried deleting the app cache and data, uninstalling and reinstalling, changing wifi frequency to both options and yet it is not working. I know it isn't my Internet because I can stream video from the browser with no problems, every other app works fine with the connection except YouTube. Any ideas to fix this issue?

Ever since a few updates ago it's only gotten increasingly harder to load up a video. God forbid your on 3g. Also check if the video is on HD. If it is turn it off in the bottom left corner when it's in landscape and it'll load no problem and it'll still be pretty clear. If its on HQ it should load after a few seconds with maybe just one buffer

Do you not see my connection? I can stream a 1080p video without one buffer... I guess the app is just messing up lately like the other guy said, that's why it's buffering.

Was having issues with my AT&T OG as well.
So it does seem to be more server/app side.
While it may suck, I'm glad I'm not the only one with the issue.

Is it note3 specific? No issues on s3

Crashes a lot less on note3 but still does funky stuff other than crash. Note2 was problematic. Lots of crashes.

I'm getting them too.

when i click a post it chooses one above and in order to click correct i have to click on the line at the very bottom of the post or it freezes and crashes

The XDA app always sucked (especially notifications), so I switched to Tapatalk after it went free. The only thing I don't much like about Tapatalk VS XDA is that you can't "mark all as read" for certain sections suchs all the "Participated (Unread)" threads; have to either ignore or read each one one-by-one

XDA Premium is really bad. Hard to fathom how they put that out. I use Tapatalk Pro/paid whatever and it is pretty reliable. I had to start over the app every time I switch screens on XDA. It used to work okay.

Is not only on note 3, I have nexus 10, I have a same problem all time crashes...... Ironic.... Xda crashes and no body fix it

lol same here, soo annoying. I hate to ditch the xda app but thinking about using the Tapatalk app, I also really really hate the new layout/ui of the xda app. I have an older backup of the premium app (think it's like 2.2.1 or some shizz) and have always found my way around on that version. 4.doh! and above is confusing and a headache!
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda premium

I guess I'm in the minority, as I use the latest XDA Premium app daily without problems, and have for over a year. The only issue I have is that sometimes when I switch to another app and then back to XDA, it relaunches the app rather than going back to whatever page I was on, and even that doesn't happen very often...

Does it just crash randomly, or is there a specifix action that causes it to crash for you guys? I'm real curious about this now, because as I've said, I've used it on 3 different phones and dozens of ROMs and I don't think I've had it crash on me even once.

Xda premium the most buggy app on my phone

Does anyone else have this problem? It only loads half the time I've been through multiple reinstalls on multiple different roms and it's still super unreliable.... I think it's ironic that the xda premium app is so buggy

Haha this is funny because I had to log on the computer to reply because my app won't load right now. It seems to work a little better when I'm not connected to a wifi network, though not by much (bad network connection isn't the cause).

Mine stalls and won't load half of the time too. I usually just hit the back button, then re-open the app and it loads on the second try. Slightly annoying but still faster than using the browser.

I notified the mods several times last week. Everytime I turned xda on it would say connecting to servers for 15 minutes.

+1 this. Idk what the deal is. Half the time it won't even load period if I am connected to any WIFI source. I get a connection fail. Even when I use the data network it hangs half the time. When I do finally get it to where I can actually reply to something the message only posts 1/3 of the time. Otherwise I get a "you do not have permission..." blah blah blah. I don't even receive notifications anymore. The only way I know if someone responds to anything is when I get an email notification in Gmail. Idk what happened to this app. It used to be awesome.

I use wi-fi 90% of the time and don't have trouble loading any other app.
