[Q] Defy grinds to a halt

Really hoping someone can help me. I have had my Defy for a few months and have always been on a custom SBF but continue to experience problems with the Defy working amazingly for hours and then sometimes I turn the screen on and the Defy is working in some kind of super slow mode and opening anything takes ages, everything does eventually open so it’s not crashed but just going super slow!
I am currently on SBF 3.4.2-177 Nordic but have had the same problem on different SBF’s so either my phone has a hardware issue or its some software I have on my phone, I am currently on Beta 6 of CM7 and have had this issue on other betas of CM7 but have never heard of anyone else with this issue. The phone will sometimes go a whole day without the issue also which is weird. It is not overclocked either. When it goes into what I now call superslow mode I have checked to see what the processor and memory usage are and both are around 60% used not being topped out at all. I have even used StabiltyTest to test the memory and CPU when the problem is occurring and both run through fine.
I really would love to know if anyone else had a similar problem or if they know what is causing it or how I can find out what is causing it without removing every bit of software I use. The only piece of software I use regularly that runs in the background is Juicedefender so I am going to remove this now and see what happens over a few days.
Any help would be amazing
Many Thanks
Bob

Did you install the latest patch for the auto-brightness issue? or Did you turn off the auto-brightness?

Thanks for the fast reply I have already installed the latest patch for auto-brightness issue but still have the problem

Was the phone slow in the stock ROM? I mean that's really wired that the problem appears on each SBF

Hi mys_721x, I only had the stock ROM for a matter of days when I first had the phone so really cant remember but I am thinking I may have to go back to see if I do still have problems if no one else can suggest anything else. Cheers

I have this same problem. Only fix seems to be a reboot whenever it happens

Same here, my phone suddenly becomes sluggish and unusable. Yesterday it was stuck on 100% cpu usage, I entered the task manager to see what was wrong and there wasn't any application that was using the cpu.
Only solution is to reboot everyday.

Glad to see I am not the only one, yea a reboot does the job sometimes it can be twice a day sometimes I don't see it for a few days, do you guys have juice defender installed by any chance as thats the only real program which stays running in my background which is extra to the roms I have used, cheers for your input, lets hope we can figure out whats going on.

I had it to in the past. When i tried to lock the phone it took long time and it wouldn't unlock for a wile 1-2min what is verry long if your waiting and afterwards scrolling was lame.
Don't know what I did, but it's gone now. Now only when out of memory(dhuu!)
I think I wiped it cleen, went to a 2.2 and didn't have it again, now on CM.
Do you see in spare parts any apps using mutch cpu?

Weirdest thing that happens to me..
Every hour/day the phone loads up some applications prepared to start when I turn on the phone..
That means that if I close say, tigertext or Skype, the following day, without turning off the phone, hey are running again.. wtf?
EDIT: A way of checking what's using the CPU, if you're on Froyo, is check the application manager to check for services CPU usage

Yea I have no idea what is causing it but little to no cpu usage when it happens, when I lock on cm7 the tv effect for screen off is super slow motion its really strange, did a clean wipe yesterday and did its first slow down today just before post, cheers

Anyone have any luck with this? Mine just seems to be getting worse and worse on CM7.
Update: I've opened a issue for this on Github. You can go there to post new information / symptoms so that hopefully it can be fixed: https://github.com/Quarx2k/android_device_motorola_umts_jordan/issues/204

Hi dasbin,
Since uninstalling Juicedefender from my phone I have not had this issue once, it has now been 3 days which is probably a record for me so I would say that it was causing me the issue, do you have juicedefender installed? I am now using green power it is much better so far.
Cheers

Screen goes black watching videos.

So, brand new thing I have ran into recently is that no matter what app I use when I turn the phone horizontal the screen goes black and I can't see the video. Any tips to fix this? I am rooted with xposed.

Is there a screen protector or cover possibly causing this issue?
Have you restarted? (Had a similar issue and restart fixed it)
Sincerely,
ASUS_USA

There is at least one other thread about this. Try the search to see if they found a fix. I had something similar, but only with mp4 files, no matter which app I used. Partial or completely black screen, but the sound was fine. It went away for me with the last firmware update.

No case on there for me.

Hi,
I encountered this problem and have a thread on this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/help/video-playback-issue-ze550ml-2-18-40-7-t3139304). Basically, I had to perform a factory reset in order to fix it. Hope it helps.
Cheers.

Hi, did you managed to fix the problem and how if you did?
I have already performed factory reset with the last update 9/7/15 but still have the same problem.

Is it video files or does this also happen with YouTube and other streaming apps?

Just videos, camera videos that I took and others, Youtube works normaly

Asus Splendid was the problem, it was disabled and after enabling and updating it works normally.
If someone have the same problem ...

Video turns black - unfreeze Splendit and autostart

Oneplus 5T suddenly lagging

Hi, so i've been using the Oneplus 5T for a year and just recently it started having issues with lag, making the phone unusable. I tried installing different roms without success(Oxygen OS Open Beta 23, Lineage OS 16, and Oxygen OS 5.1.4) and i have no idea what is causing it. This issue began while i was on the OOS beta 23 and it wasn't rooted, it just started behaving that way suddenly i didn't drop it or anything, also the screen blinks and start doing weird things sometimes. Did anyone had this issue? And what can be causing it? Thanks
Link to a video of my problem: https://youtu.be/17LOiftTf8w

Found the issue. Apparently it's caused by google play services, if i clear the data of the app the phone works fine and as soon as i install something from the store it starts lagging again

I always have this issue after finishing a clean setup on oxygen os beta. One restart for me solves and never returns.

same here

If you find a solution please let me know i ran out of ideas my fix with the play services stopped working, thanks

What the hell is that lag issue seriously ??
I was thinking to flash a custom kernel and ROM but would it solve the issue ?
And the issue is completely random as well.

I have the exact same issue. Starts when i download something from playstore, open camera after a while or transfer big files e.g transferring data through oneplus switch. I have tried everything i could and didnt help. Upgrades, downgrades, root, trimming storage, clearing cache etc. Nothing is helping. If anyone finds a solution please tell me too. Really frustrated ?

The problem occured on official ROM but it comes back even on Lineage OS 16 (official too).
Do you think it could be a hardware issue ? If not, how come this problem happens even when flashing an other ROM ?

For me it lags all the time, the phone is unusuable. I can reboot, flash a new ROM ... nothing will solve it.
I had this problem for almost 3 weeks and no fix from Oneplus, so I will buy a new phone.

I had the same issue 2 months ago, I tried everything to fix the problem even did hard reset using oneplus' official program and it didn't work.
I came to a conclusion that it's a hardware issue so I sent my phone to repair and one week later I got my phone back fixed.
I recommend you to do the same if you still have warranty, the whole process took only one week. The customer service is really good.

Maybe try to reset your phone by using MsmDownloadTool, if that doesn't fix your problem then it must be a hardware issue.

The problem is that (not only i lost the warranty) but i'm not from the USA and sending them the phone is kind of hard and expensive, to the point that i think buying a new phone is cheaper. I reached to support anyways but i'm still waiting for a response after 3 days. What did they change on your phone?

I don't know what did they replace I didn't get any information about that. The screen is the same though they didn't change it, my guesses are either it's the motherboard or the motherboard to screen connector (it's called main flex I think, you can get on for about 3$)

Sound Issue: No internal speaker/No microphone/No sound by bluetooth

Hi guys,
Im here to speak about my mi 10t who got some sound/mic issue.
Everything was working good but one day, the phone muted himself on stock Rom.
When i tried to use the tap recorder, the app said "verify if an app is using the microphone an try again."
I try to put a Custom rom on it but it's the same with Lineage Os.
Now, internal and external speaker stoped working. Microphone too.
the bluetooth connect well to a device but when i play a song, no sound happen.
Even on twitter or reddit, when i tried to play a video its say, Error to load the video.
When i tried to call someone, the app close immediately
I can only send sms and read them.
Please helps

Hello,
I have the same problem just like you 1 month now,tried everything , even install custom ROMS but the problem remains.
Did you drop your phone down? I cant remember that i did , but if i shake my 10T pro near my ears i can hear that something is moving inside my device.
The temporary fix that i had was to reboot many times my device and reopen it , clear the data from phone services , but couldnt find any permanent fix though.
Does anyone else has this?

Hey!
I am running lineage and the problem is still there !
Ahah, a friend just remember me that i threw a whole beer on it during a party like 3 months ago..
I totaly forgot that and i think i was too drunk to remember.. unfortunately!
But the phone is like new and nothing is moving inside
Yes if i reboot/wipe data 363637x time it has a chance to work but the problem come back fast
I use a second phone where i put my sim on it and play with the mi10
It's sad because that 144hz screen is fkin good
And i still can't Say if it's a software or an hardware bug.
Because if i open the phone, change the internal/external speaker for nothing i will be a bit pissed
But still a good phone even muted aha

Hey,
Thanks for the answer.
I had a similar accident as well . My question though is what causes the sound issue. if i try to reboot/wipe this (which i dont want to wipe all my data every week ) there is a change also for me to work.
Do you have any idea how can i fix this ? should i give it to somebody who can open it for me as its a hardware issue?

I have the same problem, has anyone found the solution?

Entirely unrelated to the issue, but just to calm some folks
The Mi 10T Pro model rattles because the camera has OIS (the camera module itself moves). This can also give a slight rattling effect when playing very loud music
Don't worry about it

Try to open the phone x50 times and dont let it close again....This is the only way that i found out , but cant/ dont have the time to switch it off x50 times.

same problem here...
i've dropped my phone one time and after that, no sound at all.
the assistance shop said that all the components were good, but the problem remains
my last try was to flash the xiaomi stock rom, but no results

Had a similar issue.
Even multiple factory resets also didn't help.
However tried another sim and did a reset and it was working fine.
Now then after few days it again happened
Now this time I probably understood what was triggering the issue. I had paired my headphones(Bluedio Turbine) with both my laptop and phone. Using one at a time it was working fine. However if there's a call from both laptop and phone then the phone went into this state.
Again tried resetting multiple times. This time tried replacing the sim with a different sim. Different from the one in previous attempt and the sim change trick also did not work. Then tried again with the same sim which had fixed it earlier and it worked.
So in short these are the steps that helped me. Seems like only sim might have worked however don't know for sure.
Take proper backup of your data. Also this may or may not work for you.
Factory reset from settings.
Shutdown phone.
Press volume up and power button and hold them for some time till the phone starts up.
Use power button and volume key to wipe data.
I did this 3-4 however I think so it is t required.
Replace your sim with another sim. I had replaced my Airtel sim with a different Airtel sim and it worked for me. However replacing Airtel with jio did not help.
Start the phone.
Setup the phone.
Phone might start behaving fine.

Ignore this. This again happened after the last fix. Now again I can not use the mic. In CIT check if I try to test any of the mics, top or main the app crashes. Seems to be related to the mic. However don't understand how come event Bluetooth calls fail.

Another thing that I tried was putting the phone in refrigerator for around 10-15 mins. The phone was switched off before being put in the refrigerator. It generally works after that.
However it is generally good only till a restart.
Try at your own risk.

Must be something to do with the firmware only. And problem seem to be happening at the time of a reboot. Right at the time when MIUI logo appears during a reboot, if you dont hear the bootup sound, then the system audio wont work.
What fixes for me is multiple reboots until you hear the bootup sound. Most of the time, it takes just a couple of reboot. Max it has taken for me is 7.
Problem with loading of audio driver?!

Hi all,
Is there any update on that issue ? I still have that phone doing nothing at the moment. So i was wondering if there is any chance to use it.

I have the same problem.

New Mi10T Pro - No Sound at all
Brand new device. Flashed custom OS (Arrow OS and google pixel)- no sound at all. No Youtube sounds, no call sounds, no media sounds, even Bluetooth, even with headphones. Phone are silent absolutely. Please help. Thanks in advance, guys!
forum.xda-developers.com

I still have the error

Still same problem here. I even updated to a custom rom, but no difference. Even sound via bluetooth does not work nor sound via USB.
Anyone has a theory how that could happen?

Question Having system and camera lag very much

Hey guys i am having very much lagging problem in my phone. After my current miui virsion is miui 13.0.3.0 stable version.. can i claim warranty on this problem!!? I have bought my phone recently. Thnx in advance.

Hello,
If the phone has defects, the warranty should be taken into account. On the other hand, if the phone works well, especially the hardware, I think that sending it under warranty is not necessarily the right solution. Have you reset your phone since installing your update to MIUI 13?
Bill

i'm having the same problem, i see that very often the system start to lag when it have about 1GB of free ram. Then the camera slow down and the launcher sometimes crash. Closing all the app frees only some 100s MB, the only way is reboot the phone. I'm thinking about moving to xiaomi.eu rom

Definitely warranty. It's a phone. It has electronics inside. Just RMA the phone.
Mine does not have any lag, freeze, issue. It's the most stable, long-lasting phone I ever used.
The only "issue" I ever saw/had is the lack of OIS on the camera, but that's 100% hardware. Xiaomi loves saving pennies on camera all the time. (See Xiaomi 11T Pro)
Ps.: I've tried stock, Xiaomi EU Stable and Weekly; all with ram boost enabled and disabled. No lag whatsoever.

No lag even after 3/4 days without rebooting?

In a German forum someone could solve this problem by turning off that 2 GB memory extension in settings (turning it off is a good idea anyway).

When I saw that option turned on I disabled it immediately. No luck, still lagging

Some users on 4pda reported similar problems.
The solution - do not use custom themes, only pre-installed.
Classic/Boundless.
Proof link
Deepl.com translate:
"Can be happy with the phone today, holds 86% by the end of the day, nothing hangs and camera instantly on. Delete all the themes except for two "Classic" and "Boundless". I have Boundless, the phone does not recognize, but the other day I already wanted to throw it away for his stupidity. To understand - I have a phone so consumed the charge that the car when the navigator mode, he discharged even with the charging cord, and if you turn on the camera while the navigator, you have to wait for about 15 seconds. In short, I just realized for myself - it's crooked theme it so stupid!"

I totally agree.

I had the same problem. What I did is reset the camera app settings and set it to autostart(saw it in a video) which fixed camera lag issue to some extent. Also there is an option to schedule shutting down of device, so I scheduled it to turn off and turn on in a couple of minutes just before my alarm goes off in the morning. The phone runs smooth like butter throughout the day!
