Freezing - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl

Not sure what was happening as it hasn't done it again. I was replying to post at G+ and the Note would appear to freeze, one time it was probably close to 15 seconds. During this time the Return & Menu buttons would not light. Didn't try Home didn't want to loose the post. Reminds me of ho.w my Nexus 7 2014 acted when I bought it. Finally after several updates it was fixed & the wife doesn't complain so I'll assume its fixed.
Is this a known issue or just something strange happening at the time?

Crashing issues possible cause

I just had another crash replying to a post here using tapatalk. The keyboard had small pink corruptions as if video memory had an issue.
I pulled the battery for about 10 seconds, tried to turn it back on. No dice. I tried again except pulled the sim as well, that worked.
Maybe some of us having crashes are sim related?

I've had to do a second battery pull today. Phone locks up then about 5 seconds later the display goes dark. Not fun.

I froze twice in the past three days. I was using hand cent and browsing. The battery had to be pulled in order for restart.

Yesterday I noticed GetJar was keeping the device awake (in battery stats), but otherwise it was responsive and all good. I uninstalled GetJar and rebooted for good measure. It powered down fine, but wouldn't power back up. I had to pull the battery.
My first 'battery pull' so far!
I had my first crash today while I was replying to an SMS message. The screen produced these broken specs of green.
I couldn't exit from the SMS, eventually the screen turned itself off and then nothing.
I had to perform a battery pull to fix.
When the phone booted back up ICS complained that the launcher had crashed.
Instead of clicking 'stop' I clicked 'wait'.
Phone returned to normal after that.

Did you guys restore old apps/app data from your previous Android device? If so, factory reset and START FRESH.
I can't count the people I know that had issues all stubbornly because they refused to start fresh from a new device.

I didn't use a restore. I just added my Google account and let the phone download my apps that I more or less had from my Nexus One.
Is that OK to do?
Or should I have done something else??
Let me know, Thanks.

This is how it works. When you login all the apps install automatically.
I just noticed this morning that a bunch of apps I had uninstalled already on my GN automatically reinstalled. Odd right?

If you have "force 2d rendering" checked in the developer settings, that will cause many issues.

I don't have any dev options on. I'm basically seeing what others are. Lockup, sometimes with screen corruption, then the display eventually goes black some short amount of time afterward. Battery pull required. I thought it may be heat related at one time but it has happened when the device was relatively cool. Seems like a software driver issue that can hopefully be addressed.

Random reboot and wake issue

Did anyone have a random reboot or problem waking the device?

I have a heck of a time getting the device to turn on using the power button. It's as if the button is recessed a bit...it's hard to press in an awkward place.
Also, I've left the device a few times for long stretches to find that I need to boot it up to turn it on. It powered completely down on its own.
I love it, though; definitely not disappointed.

I don't experience reboots waking up the device but i've had the tablet reboot on me once today while watching a netflix video. It also rebooted three times yesterday while chromecasting.
I've been getting random reboots but no problems waking the device.

This happened to me today, not sure if it's a symptom of a defective device or just a software bug
Picked mine up this morning. I've seen 3 random reboots with it in my hand today. It had also turned itself off once while in my bag and required a long press to boot back up. For now I'm chalking it up to 4.3 still being in its infancy.
Luckily it reboots really fast!

Yeah mine reboots here and there on it own. Also I don't like the way that if you're playing a game sometimes and have to listen or read a but of dialogue. The screen auto shutoff will still turn off.......

I had mine next to my bed last night and for some reason when I looked over at the Nexus 7, the screen was "on" but nothing was being displayed. It would not respond to anything. I held down the power button and went to bed.
Now it won't boot at all past the Nexus logo screen! I haven't tried rooting it or anything (I do have BusyBox and SuperSU installed from my previous Nexus 7, but without the bootloader being unlocked or root it shouldn't do anything, right?).
Been waiting for 20 minutes and it's stuck at the Nexus logo screen...
I have a similar issue where upon waking the device in the morning it will reboot. The odd thing it usually doesn't do it right away, but up to a minute afterwards.
Very odd.
No random rebots <knock on wood> but I do find it difficult to find and press the power button without sometimes turning the device to see what I am doing.

Random reboot

Anyone else experiencing random reboots? I have had one so far when using chrome.

I'm beginning to wonder.
For me, I haven't caught it. But I use Sidebar and RoundR which have stupid notifications. I hide the notifications but they return after every reboot... And I'm finding them on more often then I would like.
So either the device is rebooting, or there is a problem with the Hide Notifications sticking.
Typically reboots are issues with the kernel. I doubt it is hardware. If it weren't for the notifications, I wouldn't even suspect it. Could be more wide spread then people are noticing.
I would advise everyone to keep a watch on it. I'm looking for an app that says when the last boot was. Android settings > Status shows uptime. Mine shows 14 hours, which would be accurate since I unlocked and all that jazz.
Could just be an incompatibility with 4.3 or the app in general.
I'll just wait and see.

Freezing.

Does anyone have their tablet freeze randomly for a bit, and make it unresponsive for a while (few seconds)?
Or is this the touch screen issue everyone is talking about?
Occasionally, but then again, my first n7 does this loads, as well as my phone, probably an android problem Tbf, every device I've used, including apple products have occasional few seconds of hold ups

I've noticed this on mine as well... I think it has to do with the touchscreen issues. In some spots, I'll tap and there is a few milliseconds delay. In other spots, the taps are recognized immediately.

Mine has a few times on the YouTube app earlier today. First time experiencing it. Unresponsive and gets stuck. Can't even press back button soft key.
Clearly apps fauit since I press home and it goes back to normal. I have to kill the app nd restart again for it to work

me too...
but only when typing in the facebook app with Swiftkey (swiftkey seems to crash sometime... after 5-6 seconds freezing)
but it happened to me only 2 or 3 times in the last week.
Yup, this happens to me frequently, Especially when using Chrome. Freezes for about 10secods then resumes.

Use Chrome Beta as your default and just disable Chrome Stable. It doesn't happen on the Beta builds at all. The most recent Chrome Stable update has an issue within it.
yes this happens, and even turning the screen off won't register. it's a system wide freeze, not a touch screen issue.

This happens to all 4.3 builds including nexus 4...its a fault with aosp not device

yeah exactly my problem.
For me, the freezing occurs while I am using a browser such as dolphin or Chrome.
The devs in the Nexus 4 section have decided it has to do with the JSS build of 4.3 which is what we have as stock. Its not device specific and looks to be a big problem.
Link to their devs only discussion: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2399089

The freeze goes away for me with an alternate kernel.
I'm using Faux's and it's not doing it.
YMMV, of course.

[Q] My Magazine Not Responding All the time

Hey everyone,
I don't even use My Magazine but it stops responding all the time. Like 3 or 4 times a day. And everything freezes for a few seconds every time it does.
Anyone else hear of this / know of a solution? A friend told me it's a known issue with using the Nova launcher, but I was just searching for this known issue and I can't find a thread about it anywhere.
yes me too I thought it happened after I tried to unintelligible it and other bloat with titanium nd things started force closing so I restored them....wither way though same happens to me

well at least i'm not alone haha. i haven't done anything to try to disable or hide it. i'm not even rooted or anything yet. i just haven't used it since the day i got the phone 2 weeks ago and yet since the past 3 or 4 days it's been popping up not responding at random.
i just started suffering from this problem and i can't fix it. My Magazine freezes and crashes when i'm not even using it and it does this very often. This makes the phone lock up for a couple seconds. Very annoying.

Ditto, I believe it's happening to all note 3s, I remember reading about this same issue weeks ago when I first got my phone

Go to setting - General - Application manager - all - find my magazine - clear data and cache - force stop - restart your phone. This is how I fixed it. I hope it helps you.
Ps: this fixed the crashing issue but it's still very laggy at first start then is good.

Blaster - did what you mentioned, but next day came back! I hope they do an update soon to fix this! It sucks they force this app on us and it is not stable.
