Phone app crashing when trying to view call details - Razer Phone Questions & Answers

I'm not sure if this is a Oreo issue or not, as soon as I got the phone I updated it to Oreo and wiped it. When I go into my call log and try to view the details of a call, the app crashes non stop no matter what I do. I can go into either Contacts app and look at a contact and get call details there just fine. Anyone have any ideas? I went to the phone app and cleared the app cache and data but its still doing it.
Also, anyone know why Razer duplicated what seems like random apps? Calculator, Contacts?

Can anyone looking at this at least try it and report back? I use call details a ton for keeping track of call time and right now its a huge pain in the butt.

I am reporting in. I have come across this bug. Honestly we should report it on the Razer insider forum....

Alright I'll get on there and report it too.

Yeah, same thing is happening to me as well.

They are wanting me to upload a bug report which I'll be doing sometime later today. The thing that really sucks, the phone app doesn't appear to be listed on the play store so they will have to issue a system OTA, which I'm assuming is going to take longer.

I also just noticed, voicemail notification cause the dialer app to crash. I have 4 voicemails I was not notified about.

I'm almost positive that I've gotten voicemail notices just fine.. but I'll test this later today to see.

Anyone get a fix or update on this?

Are you still experiencing this on O MR1?

All of these issues are fixed according to some users on XDA or the Razer forum. I wouldn't know cause I sent mine back. Hopefully the 2nd one is a little less of a mess.

My phone is not experiencing a problem. My sister, however, started having the problem after upgrading to Oreo and she is up to date and still has the issue.
Very bizarre.
We have cleared cache and data and no change. She is currently using a 3rd party dialer in the mean time.

Problem solved. She factory reset her phone and all is good!

Google Voice issues

Ever since I ran stock, I've had issues with texting on GV. Basically, I'll be in an area where I have full service/3g, and have trouble sending and receiving messages. I won't know about missed texts until i go to send one and it hasnt gone through for 10 mins. I've gone through SkyRaider 3.5, MIUI, and Incredibly Re-Engineered along with stock since I got the phone back in November, but the issue persists. My GV settings aren't the problem, I've checked.
Anyone else had this issue and been able to remedy it?
I use GV for texting since I dont want to pay for a texting plan. I have not seen anything like this but I do not text that much. I am running CM7 latest build.
Thanks,
SoBBie
have you tried Force Stop, Clear Data and then setting it up again?
reinstall?
does the same happen when you use Voice on a desktop (www.google.com/voice) ?
in my experience, GV is still a little buggy. good enough for daily use, but there are issues. best bet is to go to the google help forums and post your problem there.

Yes, I've tried that multiple times. A quick search turned up no posts regarding similar problems. I guess I'll try posting on my own.
Another thing you could try is setting up another Google Account to see if its possibly just your account that isn't working right.

I agree. I use GV all the time, granted there are sometimes I have some service issues, but overall it is great. I actually use it for my main business phone number and have never had any issue because of it. I bet something is screwy on Googles end of things.

[Q] Google Voice Notification Not Going Away

Howdy,
Before I upgraded to CyanogenMod 9.0, I would get a Google Voice message notification for a text message. I'd go into the web version of Google Voice, answer the text and then after a bit, the notification would go away on my phone.
Now switched to CM9 and the notification doesn't go away unless I answer the text on my phone or clear it out on the phone.
I've tried GummyNex and CM9 and they both do it.
Has anyone else seen this? I've done the thing where I've uninstalled GV, did the *73, deleted all the Verizon VMs and the reinstalled GV but it still does it.
Don't think its related to your ROM as I'm having the exact same issue on stock 4.0.4 and have always been on stock. Seems to have started a couple weeks ago....
Been pulling my hair out trying to figure out what's going on and was about to start a thread myself asking if anyone else had the issue. Thought I was just crazy at first, but I know for a fact this is not how the app acted before. I've tried changing all kinds of things for my browser use of voice.google.com, deleted/re-installed the app, and nothing works.
I'll be texting using just the browser for a bit and look at my phone and I'll have a notification for "25 Google Voice Messages" or whatever. They never clear. I notice that when opening the GV app to the thread I'm texting in, it hasn't synced in the background, and takes a few seconds for the messages I had sent to show up in the thread. It seems as though Google Voice isn't getting background sync anymore.
Aww man So it was just highly coincidental that it happened around the same time I switched over to a different rom.
It's surprisingly frustrating for such a little thing. I just use it so much that it forces me to check the phone and clear it manually to make sure I don't *actually* have a new message when I'm using both my phone and the web app.
Argh.
Yeah - nothing I've found has fixed the issue.

Yes I think it's actually a coincidence as I said I've been on stock and it all of a sudden stopped working as it was. This is just really weird because there's been no update to the app or anything.
It's extra frustrating because Google Voice is my primary #, so I'm doing about 99.9% of my texting with it, and really enjoy being able to use voice.google.com. Dealing with clearing GV notifications every time I pick my phone up is very lame.

I don't currently have this with my yakju 4.0.4 OTA stock ROM, but I have seen it before on this phone and every other phone I've owned across stock & custom ROMs. Fairly confident it's a problem with the app itself

I don't know.. I agree though that the problem just comes and goes, which is odd. Just a couple weeks ago they weren't clearing for me, but right now it's working fine. I remember thinking that's it's ridiculous this happens on stock firmware

Even moreso ridiculous if this is a known issue and they haven't addressed it even with these several early 2012 updates to the GV app, which made it a lot better overall in UI and UX. I just don't see how it can come and go with no changes whatsoever to your settings.
Mine definitely does the same thing... I thought it used to clear them for me, but I wasn't sure, and figured I was just thinking of how Google Talk clears the messages.
Not a huge deal to me, but it would definitely be nice if they would fix this. Our best bet is to make a post on the help forums with a bunch of posts in it.

If anyone has a chance, they should make a post in the Google Voice forums here (I'll try to do it later when I have a chance if no-one else gets to it): http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!categories/voice/using-google-voice-on-a-mobile-device. I heard that Google Engineers do monitor / read these sometimes, so if we all post in a thread there is a chance it will get read / fixed.
I really wish there was a better way to get stuff like this fixed.
Bit late to the party. Just wanted to chime in that in my experience I don't think I've ever seen the GV notification clear itself after checking the web interface on my computer.
I've been using android for a year now and have gone through 3 phones and the asus transformer tablet. My current phone is running a CM9 based rom, but still it doesn't clear these notifications.
Man, I'd love it if it did.
Note: I think that if you use the GV widget, you will see that the notification on the widget DOES clear after checking the web interface (or at least it did in GB because I just tested this on my current phone and widget doesn't clear it either). I suppose this means that GV is pushing the "read" status of an sms to our phones. The notification on the notification bar, however, still persists despite this.
EDIT: Given my last test on my current phone, it looks like the widget doesn't clear the notification like it used to on GB. It looks like it is, in fact, a syncing issue.

I can confirm that it actually did used to clear when viewed on another device, and this is the intended action. It should work exactly like an IMAP e-mail account (say, the GMail app). If you view a message on the device or in a web browser, it is cleared as read on the other. Google Voice used to do the same, and stopped doing so randomly. It's completely a backend problem.
Really wish they would fix this. Still happening on JB. Very annoying for those of us who text from the web all day.

No Facebook Notifications running Jedi X6 Rom

Is anyone else having this issue? For some reason, I am not getting my usual Facebook notifications. I made sure that notifications is checked in the Facebook settings of the app. I also unistalled and reinstalled the Facebook app. I tried to log on to Facebook via my browser. I wipe and cleared the date/cache. Not sure what else I can do. If anyone else is experiencing this and/or has a fix, please let me know.
I have the same problem, but with Twitter
Same problem here.
Yeah I said it!
I know it sounds silly, but I am the kind of person that just needs my Facebook notifications. I ended up changing out Jedi for another Rom and will give Jedi another flash later on.
Facebook notifications notoriously suck on all ROMs...it's not the rom, it's Facebook. If you Google this, you will see that notifications are hit and miss at best.

This is absolutely, 100% true. It is a known problem with Facebook Android in general. Try Friendcaster instead. Notifications are at least somewhat more reliable with this app.
I have noticed that sometimes it doesn't work and others times it does work, FB in general though needs to make the android version a lot better. I am still running Jedi everything else seems to work ok.

What annoys me with that rom is the red box that goes around certain notifications. Soooooo annoying, so I went to clean
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
I always have a problem in getting notifications from FB. I also heard that FB is notorious on the notification with Android. I believe it's not just a Rom or a Note. I really hope FB release a new native app ASAP with much better notification.
I am having the same issue, it seems to fix its self and break again.
The big issue I am having is data on a phone call, I can't access any data when a call is active. I have reflashed the modem, done a full restore to stock and reinstalled the latest update for Jedi. I'm not sure what else to do other than try another phone.
Update, I tried everything to fix my data problem, I returned my phone to stock and triangle away'd it and took it back to the store where they gave me a new phone that ended up with the same data issue. I ended up asking them to change the sim card because I couldn't believe two phones had the same problem, and this seems to have fixed it. Yep a bad brand new sim card, its funny how the smallest thing can drive you crazy.
There's a new facebook update today. Maybe it'll fix your guy's issues? I've left Facebook so I can't really give my impressions to what you guys are getting.

[Bug List]KitKat 4.4.2 Upgrade Bugs

Here's a list of reported bugs since the 4.4.2 kitkat upgrade (bugs may not affect everyone)
1. Horizontal lines during video playback - happens randomly - Rebooting the tablet fixes it / enabling "Disable overlay" in developer settings seems to work -elzeus
2. Audio quality degradation - happens randomly - Rebooting the tablet fixes it / going to test after a clean stock install -elzeus
3. Battery life issues - inaccurate battery level reporting (5% turns 25% after reboot) - alexandruene
4.Chromecast systemui crash is pretty serious. - GldRush98
5.Lockscreen widgets are broken. - GldRush98
6. Emails not showing up in sent folder - jaytee23
7. long press the "period" the "?" doesn't work - RTbar
Battery life
The big issue i have is the battery life. today i couldn't get more then 2 hours on the internet. Did a factory reset and the same thing.
Once it reaches 5 percent if i restart it goes up to 25 but it drops back down to 5 percent in like 5 minutes. Tried with no sd card, no other app's but the same thing. Anyone with a tip on how to get this fixed?? Before the update it was working fine.....
I've added your issues. I have not come across that battery issue on my tablet. Have you tried wiping your cache and user data from recovery before setting up the tablet?
Update for my issues I did a Odin restore with the stock 4.4.2 image and so far no video or sound issues but they took some time to show up before so I'll be keeping a close eye on it.

I can verify random audio quality issue. Happened to me four times since the KK update.
It seems to happen either after you quit an app/game or waking the Note from sleep. I haven't been able to trace the trigger to an exact action or app yet, if there is one.
You don't have to reboot to fix. You can fix by locking and unlocking... maybe once, maybe a few times. But it comes back to normal after one or a few tries for me. Reminds me of the audio bug we had on the HP Touchpad after its final firmware update. Damn! I thought I wasn't going to have to deal with that anymore!
I'll try to be more specific on the lock/unlock fix as I gather more info when it happens again.
And by the way, the fix on the Touchpad was also very similar - lock, wait ten seconds, unlock... lol... maybe Samsung is using the Touchpad audio driver!

Got lines again on video tried to lock a bunch of times didn't work (ill try for audio). Don't they test these updates? This is a pretty nasty bug that didnt happen pre kitkat, I think im going to downgrade until its fixed.
Update after reading this youtube thread https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEasAq2ik_A

Mh, as developer I am always careful to call something a bug.
And for these "bugs" my question is: Why not everyone have it? Why only a small group? Therefore I don't think that these are bugs but have to do with your installation.
Did anyone of your try a factory reset? Try out on a clean installation, which means without any settings changed, any app installed, any sd-card inserted?

I've done a factory reset & clean installation. I haven't rooted but did add my normal apps after getting it setup with sd card. The next time it happens I'll try unmounting the sd card.
If you check out this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEasAq2ik_A they also had the issue on their Pro 12.2 but that tablet received a stability update in early April that may have fixed it. It may be that our version was trailing there's or there is some other variable (no magazine UI etc) that is causing it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50527314&postcount=20 that person also had the lines in late Feb. I'll pm him and ask him if the issue went away after their update.
Forcing GPU 2d rendering from the developer options didn't seem to work as the corruption came back, but I did enable the "Disable UI overlay" and it did end up going away "crossing fingers" as this is the only thing I've tried that has gotten rid of the lines while the tablet is powered on (usually it only goes away after rebooting).
Another bug I found so far is with the included Email app. I'm using it with my gmail account. The new version included with KK has an issue with sent mail. Specifically, it doesn't update the sent mail folder - at least for me. It used to work perfectly. Now when you send an email from the app, the email doesn't show up in your sent mail folder within the app. I have tried deleting all the email data on the tablet, and the cache, and set it up four times since KK and it it just won't show email you send from the tablet in the sent mail folder. Note, I'm not talking about email that is already in your sent email folder in your gmail account. I'm saying, send a new email from the tablet, and that email should immediately appear in your sent mail folder, but it doesn't. It doesn't ever show up there. Kind of a problem. Can anyone else confirm this? Send an email from the Email app and see if it shows up in your sent mail folder within the email app. Thanks.

You're a developer and you say that? Are you serious? I'm an expert user. Every platform I've ever owned for the past 30 years from the Commodore 64 to this Note 10.1 has had bugs, some minor, some major. Just like the 24-second touchsceen timeout bug I found and reported in the last firmware version. The new KK update is so new its still rolling out to users. I've already encountered two bugs for sure - the audio quality bug and the email bug I just described in the previous post. The audio bug has been confirmed and I believe the email bug I just reported will also be confirmed. The fact is that certain people are more adept at finding and reporting issues. It also depends on how you use the device and with what regularity. Are you suggesting that we sit on our hands and not report the problems we find? Please.

I normally just use gmail but I setup the stock email app to test it for you. I set it up as a push account and sent a test email. It was briefly in the "Outbox" folder then it was sent out leaving the outbox folder empty. I then checked the Sent folder right underneath the outbox folder and it wasn't updated yet so I hit the refresh button in the top right corner and my test email showed up.

I never did that. I only mentioned not to call issues a bug. This didn't help anyone. People who didn't have this problem begin to fear it and people who have will stop searching the real reason because it is a bug.
I mean what I see are already hundreds of downloads of KK and only 3 persons complaint the video "bug". Did you think that only 3 "power" users are watching videos?

Do you have an SD card inserted?
I just tried something where:
1) I deleted my email account from the client again
2) deleted the data/cache from the Email app
3) ejected my SD card
4) set up the account again in the Email client
5) sent a test email
6) sent email now shows up in sent email folder but only after a manual refresh
7) reinserted SD card
8) sent another test email
9) sent email still showing up in sent email folder, but only after a manual refresh (shouldn't have to do that) and it takes awhile.... hmmm....
I tried this because I was reading a thread in the 12.2 forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2670065) where a guy mentioned a similar issue. I thought I would try dismounting the SD card and setting up the account again... still not happy... still uncertain about this... something wonky here.
I'll try more tomorrow... must sleep now.

I didn't have any problem with email I was tracing my steps for jaytee in case I did anything different from him in the way his email is setup. As for the list if they aren't bugs then what are they? People make bug lists so they can get fixed or so people can post workarounds. The only reason I enabled the developer options was to find a solution for the video lines...so far the disable overlay checkbox has worked.

Maybe it is personal but I would call them problems and not bugs. The difference for me is that a problem is my problem and I have to find a solution or work-around (or someone else for me) and a bug came from Samsung and normally can only be solved by Samsung. A problem didn't have anybody, can be constructive be solved and create a positive atmosphere here in xda. A bug have anybody, can be solved only by experts and is something negative because the product didn't work like it should be.
Therefore I find good that you start such a list but I would more mentioned what you did before (how you get the update), which update, if rooted or not, what happens and what was expected and then if a solution or work-around exists.

Mh, as developer I am always careful to call something a bug.
And for these "bugs" my question is: Why not everyone have it? Why only a small group? Therefore I don't think that these are bugs but have to do with your installation.
Did anyone of your try a factory reset? Try out on a clean installation, which means without any settings changed, any app installed, any sd-card inserted?

You're a developer and you say that? Are you serious? I'm an expert user. Every platform I've ever owned for the past 30 years from the Commodore 64 to this Note 10.1 has had bugs, some minor, some major. Just like the 24-second touchsceen timeout bug I found and reported in the last firmware version. The new KK update is so new its still rolling out to users. I've already encountered two bugs for sure - the audio quality bug and the email bug I just described in the previous post. The audio bug has been confirmed and I believe the email bug I just reported will also be confirmed. The fact is that certain people are more adept at finding and reporting issues. It also depends on how you use the device and with what regularity. Are you suggesting that we sit on our hands and not report the problems we find? Please.

You're both sort-of correct. There are pervasive "bugs" and situational bugs. @Elim is right, it's pretty clear that some of the issues being reported are situational bugs caused by some combination of elements that affect a subset of users. Add to that no two Android devices are configured the same way and it's easy to see how things that affect one user (or set of users) don't affect another. Some people rooted, some use tons of system/memory managers and battery boosters, some flashed over 4.3, and some are using a ROM from a different CSC than assigned to their h/w. All those things can cause issues of varying degrees.
Not everyone's having the battery life, Chromecast, and video lines issues so you can pretty much assume it's not the 4.4 s/w alone causing some folks to have problems. Like Elim said, if it were in the core ROM s/w everyone would be experiencing the issues equally. His advice was solid; do a restore through recovery and before loading any personal apps or settings see if the problem(s) still there. If it's not, it's something related to an individual configuration.
I don't have a problem with Chromecast or lockscreen widgets.

Question Pixel 6 pro-Google dialer

Good morning. Does anyone have any idea how I can solve the problem I have with the google dialer? When I am called, it takes a long time for the screen to turn on while the sound is ringing and it is generally slow to show who is calling .... I have tried to clear the application cache .... I have checked that irrelevant applications do not have access to the phone application but nothing .... Is there a solution? Thanks
I have the same issue, it actually started with my Pixel 4 XL. Back then I thought maybe it's just getting old. Now I'm having the exact same issue with my P6P. Tried a factory reset thinking it might have been something that migrated with my backup but that did not help.
I'm chiming in only to say I haven't seen this problem, and hope you figure it out. Not rooted? No custom kernel?
Not rooted and no custom kernel, been considering those as a solution
I never tried the google dialer. Didn't trust the phone enough to put a sim in it until I had self-built google-free aosp (now grapheme) installed. I have not experienced this with aosp dialer.

Did you ever solve this? Not even a factory reset seems to solve it for me

Which update is your phone on? November or December? If November, maybe try manually flashing the December update, potentially removing the "-w " so that it doesn't wipe your phone.

I'm on the December update, but had it even on the November build
When I open the Google dialer and click on the button to pop up the numbers it's very slow to open up

When you factory reset, did you test the Google dialer without restoring any of your old apps or data?
If the January update doesn't fix it for you when it comes out, I'd consider trying that.
Tried before restoring the apps, but I did restore my contacts and SMS. Same result. Could it be something related to my contacts (around 1400 contacts)?

I doubt it, although I "only" have 635 contacts. Right now I'd say everything is suspect, however. You've got to eliminate every possibility.
I might suspect the number/size of SMS before the number of contacts, but it's worth eliminating both at the same time just to see. Or, as I said, wait until the late January update, but if you still have the problem then you'd have to start from scratch yet again to eliminate those possibilities.

Thanks, will give it a shot after the January update drops
My best guess is that this delay happens when you have got paired an android wear with your phone. Just for testing, I paired amazfit gtr 3 pro with my P6P and this delay does not occur.
But at the same time, If you are running aosp rom, this delay doesn't happen with the dialer even with android wear paired. Strange

Interesting thought, I don't have an Android wear watch paired but I have a fitbit Versa. I haven't had this issue since the January update plus a full wipe.
I had a seperate theory which is related to the number of Google accounts I have on my phone (I had 4 before wiping). I'll keep an eye on it and try to unpair the watch if it re-occurs.

Well well well, I acted as per your theory and deleted all my google account except one that is linked to contacts and I am experiencing quite instant call-in and call-out screen and the contacts also show almost instantly.
Its a shame that android is google's own product and these issues (having more than google account) jeopardize the whole experience. I have read a lot of posts on reddit and other forums for the the same issue and all what google guys suggest is factory reset which is not a pleasant way and the problem persists after that.
Maybe I am too quick to give my feedback and this issue resurfaces even with 1 account. Will keep an eye on that and will post my further findings.

I think it's confirmed. I've added two more accounts and the call screen is now back to taking forever to showup when I get a call

Yeah I reconfirm it as well, no delay in call screens if having 1 Gmail account only.
Culprit is Google phone app I guess, may be it goes through all accounts to search n display the contact that cause this delay. I have tried Google phone app on samsung s21 ultra too n there is same delay with having more than 1 accounts while Samsung own dialer app doesn't suffer this issue.
