[Q] Problems after last update! (to 4.4.2)

Hello. Yesterday i update my Tab 3 GT-P5210, and after that update my Facebook have permanent issues. After I enter in application, in 1 second is automatically disconected, or in another case, is stay more time before disconected. Another thing, i have a permanently notification icon of my micro-SD card in my system tray, without any possibility to remove this notification. Please, some help with this 2 issues, becose is drive me crazy!
Or, i have any possibility to downgrade this android 4.4.2 to the previous one?
Previously, and now, i have only stock android, because my tablet is in warranty, and i don't want to loose-it
Some advice, please.
THANK YOU!

Anybody??

FC in Facebook apk
Hi! After upgrading to 4.4.2 the Facebook application fails and closes automatically delete data and tried uninstalling and reinstalling but the same thing keeps happening to me, this is the case I want to go back to 4.2.2 for me but working again I left it in a permanent reboot ... no solution yet ...

I have not installed Facebook onto my tablet. I will do so to see if there are any changes I can do to make it work with my kitkat CAGrom. However, most likely you may want to send feedback to facebook, which can be done on their main website for desktops. It may be an issue for all intel devices on kit kat. I am not sure.
As for the SD-card notification. It is part of what samsung put in. So on the stock firmware it will always be present. restl3ss has worked on the fix for pimpdroid and I am doing the same for CAGrom.

I don't think it is the rom that's the problem. I have same problem with Facebook to and I have stock 4.2.2 on P5220. It's the last updates from Facebook that's the problem I think.

Hmmm, I have a p5220 and recently flashed the KitKat stock rom cleaned up and rooted by Restl3ss. Facebook works fine. But Gallery force closes. I use Quickpic so it doesn't bother me.

Now is working fine, without any problem. I don't know exactly what happened, probably it was an update, but now functioning normally. I did not look to see when was the last update.

Can't download update

Hi,
I've bought a moto 360 today, everything is good a part that I cannot download any update.
From settings -> about -> software version says 4.4W.2 and if I try to tap on 'System updated' I see 'Downloading' but after 4 hours there still the same screen and no notification about a new software version. What do you think is preventing the watch to update? I didn't find anything on the android wear app/motorola app to force the update.
Thx

Might trigger the update. It's not like a phone, other than pairing it again, there's nothing to really set up.

after a reset now it says '4.4W.2' but If I tap on 'system updated' it says that the software is up to date...is that the latest version? I thought it was 5.0

Latest version is 5.0.2
When you tap on the Software version, what version of Android Wear and Google Play Services does it have?
Do you have the latest version of the Android Wear companion app installed on your phone? What phone do you have?

I solved pairing with a lollipop device instead of my sony xperia z3 compact...they have both the latest android wear app but apparently on the nexus 5 the watch went straight away downloading the update, on the sony no (I've tried to pair three times with the sony). Super weird..

Good you fixed it. Enjoy!

Ascend P6 Camera problem

Hi guys,
My ascend P6 running on 4.2.2 jellybean is acting up. I can't launch my camera app. Every time I try to, I get a 'can't connect to camera' error. I cleared data and cache on my gallery app and when I tried to do the same on my stock camera app, I noticed it was missing from my app manager. I have tried other camera applications and I still get the same error. Need help. Thank you in advance

I would suggest a phone reset, if that doesnt work its service time. Make a backup first.

Then try to reflash the system. If that doesnt work either than its time to take it to service.

Android Auto Broken for me since Oreo! Problem persists across OOS and Custom Roms!

I am having major issues with android auto since Oreo
Essentially, what is happening is that the Android Auto app itself will work with two and only two apps. They are Google Maps and Google Play Music.
My problem is, none, and I truly do mean no other 3rd party apps will work with Android Auto.
I should also restate that this is a problem with the Android Auto app itself, so let's pretend no head unit or car is involved. This can be replicated on just the phone.
Here's the behavior:
-Open android auto
-Open any 3rd party app (Let's say IheartRadio)
Either one of two things happen next:
-Instantly get a screen that says "IHeartRadio Doesn't Seem to Be Working"
OR
-IHeartRadio starts like it should, and is able to play music for about 15 seconds, and then I get "Doesn't seem to be working" screen
-This happens for every 3rd party app, not just IHeart, but Plex, TuneIn, Radio Scanner, EVERYTHING except Google Play Music and Google Maps.
I should also state that Android Auto and 3rd party apps worked without a hitch, absolutely flawlessly in Nougat.
And, I've asked around the OP5t forums here and nobody is having the same problem.
-------
What I've tried so far (And hasn't worked)
-Re installing Android Auto
-Re installing every 3rd party app and re-trying
-Installing a custom ROM (Oreo) (Same exact behavior right after factory reset flashing new rom )
-Tried installing 3rd party apps from a non google play source
-Flashing OOS 8.0 Stable, as well as OB4 thru factory wipes
What I haven't tried:
-Re-locking the bootloader and flashing back to OOS nougat (Would this even help?)
I'm totally at wits end here, folks. I bought the OP5t to accompany my new car as my old phone couldn't handle android auto, this is one of the most imporatnt features to me.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Would flashing back to nougat and locking the bootloader like the phone was brand new help me? I've never seen such a problem that persists through clean flashes.
Thank you kindly everyone,

Hey!
I had this exact same problem.
I managed to solve this.
I am on OOS Open Beta 4.
Install latest:
Android Auto:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-auto/
Android System Webview:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-system-webview/
Google Maps:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/maps/maps-9-74-0-release/
Google App:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-search/google-search-7-23-24-release/
Google Play Services:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services/google-play-services-12-2-21-release/
After installing all the apps, reboot your phone.
Android auto should work smooth again!

Just FYI, the bootloader status (locked/unlocked) has nothing to do with this.

Hey there, first and foremost, thank you so much for taking time to respond! I tried your suggestion, but I'm still not having any luck
I'm going to keep messing around with it, but thank you again for the reply.

Ohh that is really weird. Make sure you install all the Google Beta apps, and also the latest Android Auto version.
Are you using the Red Dash cable?

Yes, I'm using the dash cable that came with the phone, but this problem is isolated within the android auto app. I don't need to connect it to the car to get the issues I'm having. Just launching the app on the phone itself and starting up a 3rd party app will trigger the "seems to not be working" screen.
If I connect it to the car, the same behavior happens. No issue with the connection to the car since I'm still able to use Maps and Play.
I'm considering flashing back to nougat to see if it works and OTA'ing til I get stable 8.0 and dirty flashing OB4 today.

UPDATE!!!
I got it working, and how I fixed it was a total PITA, but it works and I'm on OOS OB4.
Here's what I did:
1. Download the first available nougat OOS and flash it. Factory wipe from stock recovery. Once booted, install android auto and 3rd party apps. Test if it works, if so...
2. Sign in google account and update to 5.0.4 via OOS updater
3. Once rebooted into 5.0.4, take OB4 and stick it onto root, and reboot to recovery again
4. I dirty flashed OB4 over 5.0.4 and it seems to work fine!
I haven't tested this in my car yet, I will be on a long drive tomorrow and update results.

Waze on android auto
Waze is working parallel to google Maps without any problems. When you open navigate both programs are shown.

Damn I just noticed it. My maps work but I tried to open Google play music and got the same error.

That was the one thing that consistently worked for me. Which rom are you on?

Camera issues after android Pie update

My camera encountered a fatal error after Android Pie update but I'm still able to use Snapchat. I'm using a brand new Pixel 2 Xl and right after I updated to Pie yesterday I haven't been able to connect to my stock camera. Has anyone else been experiencing this?

Try clearing data/cache
Then force stop
Then reboot phone

What he said in the post above. Had the same issue on DP4. It fixed it. Reboot after you clear.

I had the same issue. I didn't think about clearing the camera app cache. I flashed the factory stock 9.0 image, and the problem disappeared.

I've done all of the above I cleared cache and data with a restart I also updated OTA if that wasn't mentioned. I've also done a factory reset with Android Pie and still getting the crash prompt.

Not cool
Sounds like a hardware issue now.

I have this issue also and no fix with it, it's hardware, at least on mine, I have try a couple things, wiping, deleting, flashing, restoring, even downgrade to Oreo and still freezing and rebooting when try to open the app and camera.
This start to happen when I update to September update.
I contacted Google support and the most rare question it was; What was the camera app version I have?ñ mine is 5.3 I said, so then he/she told me that is going to send me a replacement.
I am thinking that they know what this issue is and probably there's no fix for it with the software, only change the camera or whatever is the problem with the board.
Here are some screenshots:
