Overall Issues with Android OS...

My phone hasn't acted right since the 4.1.2 update. Before then, I LOVED my phone, but now it's just junk. I've done a factory reset, disabled apps, restarted multiple times and nothing fixes it. It lags on everything that I do e.g. texting, camera, browsing, phone calls, etc. I know that Verizon doesn't control the OS and could really careless about what phone I use as long as I stay with Verizon; but when my upgrade comes due next year, I'm switching to an IPhone.
Below is a link to other people experiencing the same issue.

Here I will answer your question. Call *611 from your cell phone or 800-922-0204 from a land line and speak to tech support.
If the phone cannot be stabilized they can make arrangements to get you another refurbished razr.
There is another release coming from Google that will more than likely fix some of the bugs in the last OS update. You either wait and hoped it fixes your issues or just call verizon for tech support.
Do you think If the people at the Android Forums cannot fix all the issues your posting here will have better results? I sincerely doubt it.
Just to give you another bit of news the issues are not with Motorola or Verizon. But every single cell company and different makes of androids old and new. Its a Google OS issue. Post your question to Google.

Issue with Android devices - cannot connect to Fac...

Good morning.
I have an issue with android phones and a tablet not being able to connect to Facebook etc on our home wifi. Everything works on other wifi and the signal strength is good.
Did get it to work for an hour after a pin reset, but that did not last.
An hour on the phone to BT help yesterday, set the channel to 2.4ghz but that made no difference and no more ideas from BT it seems.
Was told by the BT man not to do a pin reset as it wears out the router, apparently.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Solved!

Is anyone having issues with Android version 4.3 for Galaxy III throwing in zeroes into text messages?

I received a message on Christmas Eve that a free update was available for my Samsung Galaxy III. I accepted the download and discovered some enhancements and fixes that I liked (finally, my voicemail icon displays the number of waiting voicemails that I have!) but I've noticed to glaring issues:
1. When I send text messages that include numbers (a phone number for example) the OS throws in random zeroes into the number. I have to usually touch the ENTER key and type the number on a new line and play around with it until the number stays in the message correctly.
2. I've had occasional lockups using the media hub which, when I do a restart, causes my settings to revert to the default factory settings....kind of a pain.
There may be other issues.
Q. Has anyone out there experienced this same thing?
Q. Is Google going to fix these issues? I noticed that on Christmas day a half dozen or so updates were made, but these to things still are a problem.
Q. Also, the Verizon Wireless Software Upgrade Assistant on my laptop insists that my version is not supported. I can still access photos and music, but it's a little annoying...

I'm sorry you're having issues with your phone after your update BigLouie1124. I recommend enabling safe mode to see if any of your apps are causing issues with your new software. If so, you can remove them. Here are the steps http://vz.to/1cD0kqT . If you continue to have issues the last step would be a factory reset to clear up some of your issues http://vz.to/JCsr33 . Please keep us posted and continue to clear unwanted message threads and clear your browser history periodically.

Download issues with Android DPS App

Hi All,
Just wondering if any of you are trying to download a folio from the android dps app and cannot change navigation pages. The folio is downloading but it looks like it freezes until the folio is completed downloading.
In iOS, you can download a folio and click on other navigation page.
Is this a fix for adobe or am i doing something wrong?
Thanks

You must be using the legacy Android app which does not support progressive download. You should try using our new native Android application, which does.
Here's Bob's help topic on building native Android apps: https://helpx.adobe.com/digital-publishing-suite/help/building-android-apps.html
Here's a list of what's supported in the different apps. Note that not all overlays are supported yet in the native Android viewer (audio is still being developed): Digital Publishing Suite Help | DPS supported feature list

Directory Caching issue with Cisco Jabber client for Windows

Hi ,
I am facing cache issue with Cisco Jabber client for Windows. If I do any change related to modification or deletion of contacts in Active Directory/ Callmanager, it does not reflect in the Jabber. Because jabber takes the contacts from the locally stored cache file in the Windows system.
Every time I have to remove the cache file to overcome this issue, practically it's not possible to do the same with all the Widows users. As, if any employee leaves the company and still I can see his contact appears in the "Cisco Jabber client". I have not seen this issue with Android/Apple iOS.
Is there any automated way to remove the cache file?
Here is the detail of CUCM,Presence and Jabber.
CUCM version: 9.1.x
Presence : 9.1.X
Jabber : 10.5 and 10.6

Hello
On our environment we had to install a dedicated Microsoft Certificate Authority "just for Cisco Jabber usage" to house the
Network Device Enrollment Service.
Our certificate for the CUPS were generated on this Certification Authority too.
I discussed this certificate matter with my colleagues this afternoon and nobody seems to remember how these certificates were deployed into the
Enterprise Trust store for the users.
But I think they asked all 400 users to accept the 3 certificates by answering "yes" to the popup instead of using a script deployed by GPO...
I wish you success with that deployment and really hope you have a technical partner that *Knows* this subject.
Our partner left us alone with that unfortunately.
Florent
EDIT: If the "Certutil script method" works, please let me know. This could be useful in our own deployment.

Application crashes with Android 2.3.3 update

Hi All,
My development phone(Google-Nexus One) recently received the Android 2.3.3 update and although native applications run faster my Air application is failing basic test cases.
Simply scrolling a list with TileLayout and MobileIconItemRenderer causes the application to crash. Error dialog reports the the application process has stopped responding and only option is to force close. Scrolling is very cluncky and not usable on 2.3.3(disregarding the crashing), testing the same build on Android 2.2 is fine.
Has anyone else seen performance/stability issues with Android 2.3.3 update?
Any help is much appreciated,
Cheers,
Greg

As I said, I installed a new version of Android in my smartphone, which forced me to reinstall all the applications (including the Adobe AIR), so it's the version 2.7.1.1961.
I checked other applications that depend on Adobe AIR and see that is a common problem with Adobe AIR applications and several people complain about.

Serious Issues with Regions

JDeb 11.1.1.3, Windows 7 x64
I am finding serious issues in regions.
I have a series of page fragments defined in a ADF task flow.
When I change data in them the Commit does not reflect the change unless I go to another page and return (unacceptable for the client).
When I programatically add records to a table, they are not shown - the table does not refresh - even with an execute button (which should re-execute the query and redisplay the table), unless I leave the jspx that contains the region (unacceptable).
I have tried to requery, get the datacontol view object and requery it - I believe the data is updated - the table just will not show the data (not refreshing).
on pages with forms - when I create a new record (CreateInsert) and add data - the save button never activates until you move to another page and back again.
It looks like there are overall issues with the refresh functions in the region.
maybe I am missing some "magic", but this should be simple - straight forward - using partialTriggers - as it is in any other jspx.
Are these issues bugs or are there special considerations in regions for this.

Read carefully the article "17.5. Refreshing an ADF Region" in the "Fusion Developer's Guide for Oracle ADF".
It is not enough to set the partialTrigger attribute of the <af:region> tag in order to refresh the task flow. In order to refresh the task flow you should use the attributes "Refresh" and/or "RefreshCondition" of the taskflow binding in the corresponding PageDef.
For example, if your taskflow has parameters and you want the taskflow to be refreshed if some of the parameters has been changed, then you should set <tt>Refresh="ifNeeded"</tt>.
If your taskflow does not have any parameters then you can set <tt>Refresh="default" RefreshCondition="#{<some_EL_boolean_expression>}"</tt>. In this case the taskflow will be refreshed depending on the value of the specified boolean expression. For example, you can base the boolean expression on a managed bean property that is set by you to true whenever you want the taskflow to be refreshed.

Adobe Edge 3 animations issues with webview on Android v4.1.1 and v4.2.1

I am developing an Android App using webview (using phonegap/cordova v2.8.1 ) . I used Adobe Edge 3 and generated few animations using SVG images and couple of html pages
Query #1:    Scaling of image is continously increasing with every orientation change
             On Nexus 5, Nexus 7 and Nexus 4 (all with Android version v4.4.2) the Adobe Edge animations work as expected in my App, however there is one issue when ConfigChanges option in Android manifest file is set to "orientation|screenSize" used in the main activity of my App to allow it to automatically resize this screen/images when screen orientations between portrait and landscape. This works but image size keeps increasing (never reset to original size) every time change the orientation of my Android device from portrait to landscape and vice versa.
Is there any issue with Adobe Edge based animations w.r.t to automatically resizing based changes to screen orientation on Android ?
Query #2: Images(i.e. symbols) are incorrectly loaded/shown and sometime stage itself is not loaded
    On Samsung Tab 2 (v4.1.1) and Samsung S3 (v4.2.1), the same Android App runs fine, however some images are not loaded randomly, sometimes the image is blank and sometimes incorrect symbols are overlayed onto the stage1 and stage 2 screens.
Has body faced similar issues while using Adobe Edge generated animations with webview/phonegap based Android applications ? if yes how it was fixed ?
This Android App uses only the two html pages (as stage 1 and 2) and then it loads different symbols (i.e svg images) using hide and show , load composition methods to create animations.
Let me know if there are any Adobe Edge 3 related issues specific to different version of Android ...in particular Android v4.0, v4.1 and v4.2 ..because the same App works fine on Android v4.3 and v4.4
I suspect it is due to differences and support available in webview implementations in different versions of Android.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated !
thanks

Sadly I don't have answers either. I'm not sure what happened but as of the last few days i've been having the same problems. There are also times when my mac mini wont even connect to the base station.
What I find strange is that my sister has the same airport firmware installed and her machine is unaffected. I'm on hold with apple atm, so we shall see what they can figure out.

Wifi issues after Android 4.4.2 update (specifically WEP issue with 2.4GHz router)

I have an old Westell 2.4Ghz Wifi router which is using 128-bit WEP security (13 character password).
When I bought my HTC One it came with Android 4.2.2 and could not connect to my home Wifi. After rebooting, changing passwords, using 2.4GHz network freq on the phone, and trying the mystical power-down, volume-down, special-screen trick ... nothing worked. However, Verizon was kind enough to extend my data plan for free so I could download the massive 4.3 update over 4G network. Android 4.3 fixed my WEP / Wifi issue.
Early this morning (Feb 18, 2014), Android 4.4.2 was downloaded and installed on my HTC One. Guess what? No wifi connection after restarting the phone, rebooting the wifi, etc. Isn't that nice?
Android developers, I plead for your mercy. Please stop making x.x.2 releases!
And also, please fix the WEP issue in 4.4.3.

Upgrade == $$$
No thanks. I'll spend my money on more important things, like little gifts for my wife.
I have several devices connected to my home WiFi that work just fine (printer, laptops, flat-screen tv, etc). It is just these Android 4.4.2 devices that fail (yes, I have two HTC One phones, both with the same problem).
Reading the posts on forums.androidcentral.com , it looks like lots of folks are having the same issue.

Solution: iPad/iPhone Login issues with IIS as Reverse Proxy (Android and Windows Phone works)

Hi,
I had issues with iPad/iPhone access from external and tried a lot. Now I found my solution I like to share.
I setup a IIS on Windows Server 2012 with ARR 2.5 and Android and Windows Phone could login but not iPad and iPhone.
The IIS Log on the reverse proxy showed:
2013-02-26 12:03:31 <IP> POST /webticket/webticketservice.svc X-ARR-CACHE-HIT=0&X-ARR-LOG-ID=1996c8d7-09d0-4310-8da4-a8dfb7940e28 443 - <ClientIP> Lync%202010/1.6+CFNetwork/609+Darwin/13.0.0 - 401 0 0 124

First Request gets a 401 while anonymous. Second try would be with authentication but it never reached the internal front end server.

Hi,
This resolved our problem too!! So happy after 2 weeks of messing around with just about every setting recommended from all types of forums and rebuilding our reverse proxy I was at a loose end.
Our environment is Lync 2013 Enterprise, Lync 2013 Edge, IIS as Reverse Proxy on Server 2012 using ARR 2.5
We had Android and Windows clients working but no iOS devices at all. In the iOS log we were seeing

Does Verizon ever provide a different model phone if the customer has basically had the same issues with 3 prior 'replacemet' (refurbished) phones?

I have owned a Samsung Galaxy Stellar for the about the past year and a half, which is only my second smartphone. I am not a whiz at all this but I'll try to be coherent. I had problems with the Stellar from the beginning: Very slow loading browser, problems with the cursor, etc. After about 6 months, the phone dropped, and no, I didn't throw it on the ground!
I have insurance and it was still under warranty, so it was replaced, by Assurian, I believe. The replacement phone had the same problems, plus a whole lot more. During calls, the wifi, and/or Bluetooth options would appear, or the phone would suddenly go on mute. In addition, when I tried to access my voicemail, what I heard was my own voice and outgoing message, not the one from Verizon asking for the password. These problems were intermittent, which made the Verizon employees dubious, but it's like the car that you take to the garage that suddenly works fine. Anyway, there were some other problems too, so I got a replacement phone again, which is the phone I currently have had for about 3 months. A few days ago it went from bad to worse. In fact it went Crazy!: Every call I make or receive is immediately dropped. Maybe after 5 or 6 tries, I can complete a call, but rarely. When I do, the mute and speaker options spontaneously activate, at the same time!! When I go into my voicemail, the messages are deleted in rapid fashion, one after the other, and I cannot get them back. Or, as I said earlier, the Wifi/Bluetooth screens appear, and it's difficult to punch in any numbers as I have to hit the back arrow many times. Strangely, the phone makes odd sounds: It buzzes or makes this odd chiming sound! If I didn't know better, I would think that I have finally lost my mind! I could go on but you have the gist. The phone is simply not workable. I phoned tech support, and she was very nice. After an hour on the phone, it worked ok, until the following day. She didn't do a factory reset, but she had me take the sim card and battery out. She did things on her end, which unfortunately I don't recall, but the phone worked ok until the following day, when it went crazy again.
I took it to the corporate Verizon store where I live, The guy said "It's a lousy phone, a cheap, bottom of the line phone." By the way, throughout this time, I had had about 6 hours with tech support, between this phone and the last one.
THIS IS MY QUESTION: I asked him if I could have a totally different phone, since this model is clearly defective. He said no, but they could send me another replacement. He told me to call trech support while I was there in the store and ask them, because they don't do repairs at the store. The tech on the phone told me the issue is with my Gmail account! That there is a virus on some phones and each time I get a replacement phone, because I have kept the same Gmail account, the virus keeps getting 'transferred', for lack of a better word, to the next phone. I was totally incredulous. Virus? She said, "Well, I use the term loosely, but it's just a weird glitch.When you get a replacement phone, bring it back and we'll save and upload all your data, and set you up with a new email account." I was confused and annoyed, as I had never heard of this, and felt I was getting the runaround. I asked her if they could give me a different phone (free of charge) and of course the answer was no. By the way, I should mention that the Stellar is no longer made. These are my options, according to the 3 different Verizon employees I spoke with: I am eliblele for the early upgrade which they call the Edge. From what I understand, it's the full retail price paid out over 2 years, with a partial payment made at time of purchase. One person told me that after 24 months, they would accept what I paid as payment in full? Sounds too generous. Option 2 is $50 of a new phone, and option 3 is to buy a new phone at a Verizon store that is having an android sale. So, I acquiesced to getting another replacement which I will keep until I buy a new totally different phone. My impression is that it's not like buying a bad toaster. They don't refund your money and let you get whatever you want for the same price! My question is this: Does Verizon ever just replace a phone that has had problems, with a totally different model? I have made as much of a stink as I can muster towards that end, but I am wondering if anyone out there has actually been able to pull that off?
Thank you for any feedback ,comments or stories!

amysue, We defintely want you to have a reliable and working phone. Our apologies that you have had issues with the current model, the Galaxy Stellar. After reviewing information about the overall function of the phone, it does not appear that Samsung has recalled the device or stated that all Stellar devices are defective, with that being said, the warranty would still only cover the same make and model. The only time a completely different phone is sent out is if the manufacturer deems the entire make and model overall faulty. It is common to have a few glitches and a master/factory reset, in addition to all other troubleshooting, will help resolve these issues. The Stellar is no longer made because there have been several Samsung galalxy devices launched, and this is common with any device manufacturer. Our recommendation is to take advantage of EDGE, if you are seeking a new device with low monthly payments. This gives you the chance to explore different device options without having a contract and you can EDGE up to a new device once meeting certain requirements. We hope to resolve your concerns here or by calling customer support.

Issues with setting "Album Artist" in iTunes 9.2.5.1 on Windows 7

I googled this for a while but haven't been able to find this issues mentioned anywhere else yet. Here's what's happening: I am importing CDs to iTunes 9.2.1.5 on Windows 7 Pro (64 Bit) using MP3 Encoder > Higher Quality. All is well except for a few CDs where I'd like to set an overall Album Artist. Example: Tony Bennett's Duets: An American Classic. When importing the CD it shows up under "Various Artists" since "Artist" is always Tony Bennett plus whoever he sings with. To make sure the album shows up under Tony Bennett in the library I click on the album and set "Album Artist" to Tony Bennett. That, however results in changing the "Artist" field as well now so all fields say Tony Bennett, which shouldn't happen, "artists" should stay unchanged. I tried this with several albums and the behavior is always the same.
I also tried the back door by going into the actual folder of the album in Windows then change the MP3 details and populate "Album Artist" there for all tracks within the album. Once I re=open iTunes it registers the change only for the first track but not the rest. So I re-import the folder into iTunes and then it does take "Album Artist" and also leaves "Artist" unchanged but for some reason has now lots of numbers under "Comments". There seems to be a mismatch of the field attributes between iTunes and Windows for MP3 files (possibly other formats as well). Wondering if anyone else has observed this or if I am just missing some setting.

FYI iTunes handling of ID3v2.4 tags seems to have some issues as well... Translating genres into their numeric codes for one thing. I'd recommend sticking with v2.3.
I'm not exactly sure from your posts what you were seeing. Was the artist being changed in Get Info. after you'd set Album Artist, or was it changing elsewhere on screeen? iTunes 9(.1 I think) added an option *View > Column Browser > Use Album Artists*. Unfortunately this doesn't change the heading of the column so that you "see" it is now only listing album artists but that's what it does.
There is also an occasional issue with the current build in that sometimes changes to Album Artist or Sort Album Artist fail to be reflected properly in the column browser until iTunes is closed and reopened.

SWR10 Not Syncing with Android Lollipop (5.0.1) on Nexus 6

I got my SWR10 3 days ago.
At first it was synced up to my Nexus 7 (2013) tablet (Also running Android 5.0.1) where it worked fine and tracked every correctly. Sleep was tracked correctly to the next day.
The next day I left the tablet at home as I went to go buy my Nexus 6. Connected the smartband to the Nexus 6 and none of the offline data synced. I put this down to me changing devices and decided to see how it faired today.
Today however, it did not track my sleep overnight. It has not tracked any steps all day. But the smartband is connected to the phone and does work as i've been using it for the media remote mode throughout the day. The phone hasn't been out of range of the smartband either as it's been in my pocket all day.
I have a suscpicion that this might be caused by a compatability issue with LifeLog and Android 5.0.1 as every time I open it up I get an error message saying the app had crashed and gives me the option to report the crash. I've left a screenshot of the bug report below.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I've figured the solution out myself... Well a workaround at least for the time being. It seems the component of the app that's crashing is the logger.
It appears this needs to be running to sync the data from the smartband and whenever you open the app this component crashes and toggles itself off in the settings.
Toggle it back on and press the home key to leave the application without returning to the timeline view and it should stay running in the background.
All the data it hadn't synced reappeared so the smartband must have kept the data.
This seems to be a workaround whilst Sony fix whatever the issue is.
