So,
I just got back from work and I purchased an ex disipaly M2-10 (M2-A01w), it's got 3gb of RAM and 64gb ROM and it's on Android 5.1.1 and EMUI 3.1.
The retail software on there is in the applications settings and it's called Retail Demo. It plays a video everytime I put the device to sleep and when I log back in, the tablet has all these awful demo screens up.
I can use the entire device fine, just it takes about 20 seconds for the video to pass, and for me to spam <back> enough for the demo screens to disappear.
Is there any way I can remove this app (I cannot uninstall from settings or force stop either) or is it a case of reflashing, if so, how do I do that?
Thanks,
Hi,
This is a demo firmware. You should update it with the "retail" one...

I'm in the same position. I brought an ex display a few days ago. I found after a few factory resets it seemed to return to a normal tablet

Well hi! I've had my a100 since Christmas and I've been loving it (other than the planner thinking no US cities exist), and until last week I've been using it to watch stuff all the the time on netflix while I'm gaming.
Last weekend I woke up and there was a force close error from the market app. I tried to report it and it said there was no space left on the device. Odd, since my internal and external sd both have a couple gigs free. Ever since then, it's impossible to watch anything on netflix. The sound is fine, but the video is insanely choppy. Barely 3 - 5fps. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling netflix with no effect. My tablet is totally stock. Not even rooted.
Anyone got any suggestions or thoughts on this? I'd really like to get it working again, but I don't even know where to begin. The cause and the symptoms don't make sense together. Is there there some other app I can check updates on that netflix uses for its streaming?
Some things you can try.
1st: Update to the leaked ICS and see if that fixes your problem.
2nd: Backup all your apps into your SD card with Titanium Backup, and then do a factory reset and see if that works.(needs root)
I RMA'd my first GNex last August with a cracked screen, the one I got back had some problems:
Camera App crashes. Sometimes on startup, other times after a few seconds, and occasionally it doesn't crash until after I've been able to take a full photosphere, but usually the first two. It shows force close screen.
Netflix crashes after a few seconds to a few minutes. It does not show a force close screen, it just restarts the app.
Youtube won't load videos and when it does, it gives an error after a few seconds or minutes.
All flashlight/torch apps crash either on startup or after a few seconds.
I got tired of this, and didn't want to deal with Verizon's ****ty RMA service again, and since it seemed like it could be a software problem, I chose to root it and try to fix it with a custom ROM. I flashed CM9 and the problem persisted. Thinking it was too late to go back, I've just dealt with it until like a week ago.
Then I heard that a 4.2 update was coming to the VZW GNex, and returned to stock using this method (Would hyperlink, but don't have post count. It's the first result when you google, "Return to Factory State (Unroot and Relock) site:rootzwiki.com" without quotes. I flashed the JB files). Shockingly, the camera, Netflix, YouTube, and flashlight apps worked. However, when the 4.2 update came along, it broke everything again.
So that brings me to my questions:
Does anyone know of any way to fix this? Preferably without rerooting, but I'm still up for that if necessary.
Would I still be under warranty if I followed the linked method for unrooting?
EDIT: I'd also like to add that music playback is interrupted when either the camera or the flashlight app crashes.

I'm already stock...
To reiterate: About a week ago I unrooted and flashed a stock 4.1 rom that fixed everything. When I got the OTA update to 4.2 everything broke again.
I also just did this, and it worked for a minute or so, but the apps are back to crashing now.
Hello XDA,
I have reviewed everything that is out there on the internet and have not been able to resolve my issue.
I have LG G3 Rogers version, unlocked, never rooted. It used to work fine before. I started noticing my Youtube videos from the app stopped playing giving an error message (Error code is different every time) Youtube videos from the browser play but without sound, Instagram videos/live streams/stories (anything that has sound; IG videos with no sound when posted by the user works fine) stopped playing, spotify wouldn't play music but the timer of the track would keep going. This is with headphones, without headphones. Doesn't matter. Then when I restart my phone, the issue is completely fixed, for some time until it starts again. The way I know it will mess up is my pattern unlock sound goes out first. Then my lock sound and eventually certain key taps are not recognized. But again, when I restart the phone, everything is fine. I use Action Launcher 3, I've tried without it. I have factory reset my phone and I am running Marshmallow.
Any ideas? Much appreciated.
Thank you.

If you have been using it for more than three years in a row, The android version wears out... (gets old)...
you might have to check for system updates or (in rare cases (or) you cannot tolerate kinda case) you can flash another rom on your LG G3.
Android ROMs give you a better battery life (which also eventually wears out after three years of usage) and better performance...
Hello,
I got a new battery about 6 months ago so not so worried about that part. Is there any to troubleshoot and deduce what could be causing this issue?
Hello,
Quick update: I have not had any issues with the phone for about 2-3 days now. I had pattern unlock set on my device with rain dew drops as the dots. Since I've removed the dew drops, this issues has stopped. Currently I have knock code set on as screen lock. I will now try pattern unlock again, but with basic dots only to see if this occurs again. Keep you posted.
Hey all,
I have had the Galaxy S20 Ultra for a few months now, and it's buggy as hell. Chrome frequently doesn't work, and will often have to be force stopped. I'm using SwiftKey as my default keyboard, and often times when I'm working on typing something out, the predictive text ribbon will stay shaking. When i have a video from YouTube or Twitch playing in the popoit player, it will glitch or straight up stop playing when i try go back into the app. Now I'm noticing that videos i play on YouTube are randomly freezing. What is going on with my phone?

Which variant, SD or exynos?
snapdragon
I've had Galaxy S devices for years. The only qualms were screenburn on the S7 and S8 but going forward since the S9 that's been resolved. The S20 seems to have more issues besides heat and battery issues with Exynos variants. The camera problems are known as well but I can't recall previous Galaxy's with so many software conflicts. Not sure if it's certain updates or UI's but Sammy needs to get it's act together, especially at today's pricing, it's inexcusable! FYI - S20 sales are way down compared to S9's and S10's. Covid-19 has a role in the declining numbers but reading the comments here you see a good number of users are looking for better options beyond Galaxy devices.
If i didn't still owe $1200 on it, i would totally trade it in for a Note 20
Here's another example. That's supposed to be a YouTube video in the bottom right corner. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ab9bsntvkx8tn3h/Screenshot_20200919-081354_One UI Home.jpg?dl=0
And here's a link to a video of it happening. I've noticed that i have to restart the phone to get it back to normal after this https://www.dropbox.com/s/njvi3wlgcm2g952/Screen_Recording_20200919-083357_YouTube.mp4?dl=0

As a test to make sure it's not the apps at fault, switch from the ones causing problems temporarily to alternative.
Chrome → Samsung Internet
YouTube → YouTube Vanced
SwiftKey → GBoard
If it still does it with those, factory reset but do not restore any backups, start fresh and test it like that, if it still does it then I'd see about getting it replaced, make sure your screen is clean and if you are using a 3rd party screen protector take it off as that could be causing phantom screen touches
Have had my S20U Exy for a few weeks now and besides the over processed IQ from camera I've had no issues with Chrome or anything else, phone has been rock solid, no glitches or hands at all, around 8 hrs SoT and 2 to 3 days between charges.

So I play a lot of games on my phone, whether it's an emulator, xCloud, Minecraft, or something else, I usually prefer to connect my device to my TV to more comfortably play. However recently I've been running into a bug on my OnePlus 9 Pro. (T-Mobile Version unfortunately). Here is where I'm at, every time I plug my phone into a TV, it freezes and crashes. Just like that. It worked for a while and then randomly stopped (I hadn't downloaded anything new or updated anything yet). I did download the newest firmware and still experienced the crash. I have switched the resolution, adjusted the frame rate, turned off Desktop Mode, and even did a factory reset. Still crashing at this point. Has anyone experienced this and figured out a cause or a fix? I am already on my second device from T-Mobile for this issue (exact same experience) so any help is appreciated.
