HTC M8 lagging and freezing after Lollipop update

I've had this phone for about a year now with no problems. Ever since the update about 3 weeks ago, it is literally to the point where I hate using my phone. These are the problems I've been having:
- Takes several minutes to turn on.
- Some apps, eg. BBC News and ColorNote will take over 10 - 15 minutes to boot after my phone is turned on. The icons come up grey and when I press it, it will say the app is not installed.
- The phone runs SLOW. When I press the messages icon, it will take about 30 seconds for the text messages to even appear. After that I'll need to wait another 10 - 15 seconds when I press the name of the person to read their text message.
- Any kind of typing produces a very long lag. Text messages, internet, Google maps. Any time I type the phone freezes for several seconds, sometimes 10 or longer and then it will catch up with what I'm saying.
- The battery drains very quickly, even when I'm not using it and have closed all of my apps. The phone can be fully charged and an hour later it's at 60 - 70% even if I'm not using it. This has never happened. I used to be able to use it for a day at least before it needed charging. Now I'm carrying my charger everywhere and constantly plugging it in or else it'll be dead within hours.
These are the biggest problems I can think of. When I call Verizon I'm told I should try uninstalling apps and logging out of ones I'm not using like gmail etc. This has not helped. I've tried resetting but from what I'm seeing that isn't helping either. Is anyone else with the HTC M8 having any of these problems after the update??? Is there a way to go back to the previous version?

About all you can do once you take the update is to either run a System Cache Clear followed by another or Run back to back factory resets to make sure there isn't much left of the Last OS but I will add in doing a Factory reset it may or may not work but for now it's about the only thing that might work that is until something of a new update replaces the one that was just released..
I've told members before and it goes like this with anything if what your using is not broke or running oddly don't go out and change or try and fixit at least till you find some evidence that what your about Download or have Downloaded is fully functional I have not update my one M8 and until I know all issues have been minimized I won't
Good Luck.!

Lags and freezes after connecting iphone

I have a serious problem with my MacBookPro 9, 2 mid 2012.
it worked very good until i connected an iphone with it , the finder has blocked 2 times and i was forced to force shutdown.
I can not use it without blocking, always freezes even if it is an i7 with 8GB of RAM.
I tried reseting NVRAM , reinstalling the OS(mavericks and mountain lion , it takes hours because of freezes), formating the hard drive completely and clean install but the problem still exist, is it a hardware problem?
Apple hardware test says there is no error.
Please help me , i can't work anymore.

The problem was from the Hard drive Cable , replacing it has solved the issue,i hope this help.

IPad crashing and freezing after 8 ios updates

My iPad 1 has been crashing and freezing after completing the most recent ios updates, what could be wrong?

Can there be any person who can say that Apple treats customers as valuable persons ?
Way how IPAD 2 users are treated, served and issues solved shows clearly how they just care of new purchases. All crashes, slowness, battery consumption, extremely bad user experience with slow and jamming UI etc... Anyway this is over now with me as I'm moving out from IPAD / IOS due this experience. Ride was a good but now its over as trust is totally destroyed by Apple.

Iphone 5s lagging and freezing on ios 8.1.1

Anyone from Apple who can help? Before I throw out my iphone 5s out the window!!! Lagging and freezing came about after updating to IOS 8.1.1, done everything to fix it, hard reset and restore to factory settings included. Its still the same.. it lags and freezes on everything I do.. wish I could just downgrade it back to 8.0 which I've been told is no longer possible. The latest IOS update didn't help either. I think its official, my iphone is now a pieces of worthless crap..

If you did a restore as new and still have issues, it could be a hardware problem.
I would schedule an appointment with the Genius bar and take it in to Apple and have it looked at.
You don't have a hacked or jailbroken device?

Firefox lags and freezes several times in an hour - How to fix?

I've read up on the forums and nothing seems to be describing what I'm experiencing with Firefox.
The last 3-4 days I've had several instances where Firefox lags or completely freezes up when switching between tabs. It will still somewhat work but it's ridiculously slow.
For example, it WILL eventually go to that tab, but it will take a minute, and then nothing on the page will work for a minute, so on and so on. Sometimes a black screen will appear where the text should be. Sometimes it stays black, sometimes the page eventually loads. It was only one website so I thought maybe that page was having issues until today when it started happening on several other websites.
It's happening quite often and it's driving me crazy. I only had an error message once, early on when this started. Since then it just seems to lag and freeze, lag and freeze, over and over without giving me an error message until I get fed up and close out of it. Upon start up again, it works fine for a bit.
I don't use any toolbars. I updated Windows and my drivers. Computer has been restarted several times since this started.
I'd appreciate any suggestions!

Hello EMA1, try to run [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode firefox in safe mode], works ?
If firefox in safe mode has the same behavior then, try to boot your win 8 computer in [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2809468/en-us Windows Safe Mode with network support] and check firefox again. Any luck ?
thank you

Moto X 2nd 2014 error after lollipop update

I've got moto x xt1096, and faced with terrible bug after update to 5.0.
Time to time on day faced with crash and restart of stock launcher with error "unfortunatelly google search (or app) has stopped"
I made a topic on motorola forum, but didn't find solution as yet. (tried to make FDR, safe mode, clean cache/data etc.)
Error after lollipop update . All Discussions (996) . MOTO X™ 2nd Gen . Forum . Motorola Owners' Forum
does anyone faced with that issue too?
And maybe someone know any date about 5.0.2 or other update for xt1096, maybe in next update it will be fixed?

Looks like it's been released:

The iPod Freezes after Firmware Update 1.2

I just updated my ipod to the firmware version 1.2 and instantly after the update the ipod started to mal-function.
I hope to god this isnt going to become one of those issues that is overlooked by Apple.
If anyone has any suggestions, or ways to fix this or a similar problem, please do not hesitate to post.

I too had this happen to me. Ipod works great before update. I install itunes7 and update firmware and then it starts freezing during song/podcast or video playback. It has to be reset by holding Menu and center button. I tried a restore on it thinking it didn't update correctly. I re-synced by entire library (which takes a while). That didn't help. So I went back to 1.1.2 update
All I did was uninstall Itunes7 and then got the 06-28 update from the another site and installed and restored my ipod. Reinstalled intunes7 and unchecked update automatically. And re-sync all my library.
3 hours I will never get back. But my ipod works again.
I posted a story to digg about this in the hopes of get Apple to respond that there are major problems with 1.2 update.
Please digg my story

Sony walkman player bug after lollipop update

Sony walkman player has bug when listen to song via headphone bass goes off and sound become very loud and worse...sony should look after this issue.

Walkman is my favorite music player app. I never install any other app to play music. Unfortunatly, this app isn't working properly after Lollipop update. I'm experiencing the following issues: 1. Sometimes volume up/ down doesn't work2. Equalizer and other sound effect don't work3. Sometimes, it play music without any bass4. For 1/ 2 mp3 file the above mentioned issues are permanent. When I face any of these issues, I restart the app/ reinsert my headphone. Sometimes, the problem is solved and sometimes not. Do you have any explanation sbout the issues? Please don't ask me to repair Lollipop. I have already done it. Should I try kitkat again?

Extreme hang problem in Xperia T2 Ultra Dual after Lollipop Update.

Extreme hang problem in Xperia T2 Ultra Dual after Lollipop Update.Extreme and Irritating hang problem occurs after I have updated T2 Ultra Dual Phone with Lollipop Version.Kindly assist and also if Boot the device will it be solved via flashboot and unlock the bootloader?? Waiting for revert.Kindly revert.

Flashmode or Fastboot mode is only for those that wish to root and install a custom Rom or firmware, if that's what you want to do then head over to XDA - Howwever have you tried a system repair as this usualy fixes issues after an upgrade.
Performing a system repair using PC Companion will often fix issues - This will factory reset your phone and erase all data so best to backup before you begin
Switch off your phone and unplug from Pc (Hold volume up and power for around 10 seconds)
Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the on screen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process
If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose Windows 7 or XP

MacBook lagging and freezing

I have a MacBook Pro (Late 2011). Processor 2.7 GHz intel Core i7, memory 4GB.
I upgraded it with SSD and instead of CD-ROM I put my old Hard Drive. So now I have two hard drives. New SSD (samsung EVO) and old HDD. I installed OS x on new SSD and it's been running very smooth and fast.
Once, I dropped my mac from the couch and there was a beeping noise like a siren. I turned off the computer, then turned it on and it was working fine. Everything worked fine for 3-4 days.
Then, it started lagging. I constantly have a spinning wheel, macbook freezes, it is impossible to do anything even to write an email. Since I have two hard drives, I was able to boot my mac from the old hard drive and it wasn't lagging. Also, when I tried to access files from SSD it was freezing again. Therefore, I assumed that the problem is with the SSD. I tried reseting SMC , NVRAM, booting in safe mode, repairing hard drive, repairing permissions and stuff like that. NOTHING HELPS!! Also, the SMART status for SSD is Verified. Then I completely erased SSD and decided to reinstall OS x. I installed it, but even while installing I could tell it would be lagging, because it was so slow. And yes, after installation of OS x it lags, freezes and all I see is a spinning ball.
Also, I have another macbook pro. So I was able to take my SSD out and connect to another macbook. When I connected it, it worker perfectly on another macbook. So the issue is not with the SSD. Moreover, I connected the SSD from that macbook to my computer, in order to see if something wrong with other parts(not SSD). When I started my computer with another SSD, it wasn’t lagging or freezing, but I can notice that it is slower then it used to be and sometimes you can see spinning balls. However, it was working better. Booting time was also reduced. Then I tried to swap RAM, it didn’t give me any result.
Also, when I connect my SSD to my macbook it starts lagging and freezing again.
So RAM is not an issue. To summarise, the SSD that I thought is a problem, might not be an only issue. Since it was working perfectly fine on another macbook. Even though another SSD worked fine on my laptop, I could still see that it slower and less productive (spinning wheel). So, the issue might be with something else. And I have no idea what is it might be.

Third party 'cleaning' apps should be avoided. They will not help and all to often with hurt performance.
I have booted in safe boot and it seems to operate just fine there with no lagging.
That is a sign that you have a third party application that is affecting your system. Essentially you have to remove all of them and reinstall them individually until you identify the culprit. Down load Etrecheck and post the result and we may be able to speed up the process if it shows a possible candidate:

NBA2K12 freezing after IOS6 update

My nba2k12 freezing after I update to IOS6

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

I install Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro and freezing after waking up and is impossible restart

I install mountain lion on my macbook pro late 2009 and freezing after waking up and is impossible restart

Restart your mac in Safe Mode by holding down the 'shift' key while it powers up. You'll know if you've entered Safe Mode correctly if you see a progress bar underneath the grey Apple logo screen. Let go of the shift key when you see that, wait for the progess bar to complete then log in.
After log in, go to
 > System Preferences... Users & Groups and remove everything from the 'Login Items' tab.
If you have any anti-virus software installed (Sophos, F-Secure, VirusBarrier, Mackeeper) uninstall it while in Safe Mode.
Restart your mac normally and test.
Any improvement?

Run the cleaner, reinstall.
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
And don't bother with running any updates unless you really need them or they fix a critical issue relevant to your workflow.

I can't copy and paste after i updated to ios8

I cannot copy and paste after i updated to ios8. Everything is slower and I can't connect to my home internet. Resetting does not help.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
