Dead Locks and Freezes in JSS15J 4.3 r2.1 (Developers only please) - Nexus 4 Original Android Development

As we all have figured by now, JSS is broken. The dead locks are in AOSP r2.1.
Do we want to search for solutions together and share what we might find here?
Options would be to bring this to Googles attention, monitoring and cherry-picking master commits (i just saw some today referring to dead locks) and tracking the differences between JWR (r1) and JSS (r2.1).
To me the issue seems to be not kernel related, looks like surfaceflinger to me, thread concurrency.
as for the symptoms,
It's too random [..]. Looks like everything else continue work in background. I get ~X seconds of hang each time, and after some input actions got executed in row.
And hangs come in bursts and then do no appear for hours...

It is true that it goes to deadlock for input but it occurs on other parts of the OS so it is not just input, input is just a strong way to get to the issue which is why it is reported on that part and it is more common on input.
Has stated above, Surfaceflinger is not just having issues with text input, it is also having issues with screen input has well.
Maybe some code in Surfaceflinger is having issues with the kernel since the code is not completely correct.
By the way I did get a deadlock while typing this.

This doesnt look like a memory (RAM) problem. I just used again my N4 and I got one of those freezes.
I say that because I got it right after rebooting, with no apps opened

I have over 1GB of ram free and still get this issue.

I dont think that this is only related to surfaceflinger. It happens often enough when I left the phone with screen on some time and want to use it again. Everything locks up. Even the signal bar does just sit there. Aswell as when waking it up to enter my pin code.

R2.1 (JSS)
R1 (JWR)
it's interesting that R2.1 saw dead lock related "fixes" while master comes back to it.
the google developer had this to say
simplifed the code a bit, and made it behave a little
closer to mr1.1 -- I couldn't convince myself that
some changes in how locks were used were correct.

i'm trying this now - problem is the random nature. i haven't had a freeze for 3 days now. if more developers can implement changes maybe we can evaluate this better.
perhaps tracking more repos would make sense, fw/native is just a stab into the blue.

I just wanted to say that its seems to be very app pendant.
I am experiencing those freezes only within whatsapp. while typing very fast on the keyboard, the freezes do often occur. it's not an app freeze, it's the deadlock freeze.
I did not notice something similar while using other apps, even apps which use a lot more of resources (like 3d games and stuff like that)

I have got the logcat and it contains a damn long list of ANRs, kernel issues and MUCH more. o.o

Moles I'm on your latest beta in the dev, the 8.9 build and I just experienced a lock playing candy crush. Wanted to give the feedback that the changes may not have helped.

Is't it weird that some users have this and others do not ?
I had never seen this, 1 day with AOSPA kernel, then updated to faux 19b4 and then 19b4m (no oc).
I thought it might be related to the new touch driver, because i though only input was freezing (since i never saw this issue), but now i seem to understand that it is freezing the whole phone ?

I've tested plenty JSS roms and kernels combo and freezes are there and happening randomly.I really hope you guys can solve this issue.Good luck !:thumbup:

It's not a specific keyboard problem. Before I flashed back to stock ROM, I was getting freezes with google keyboard, swiftkey, and kii. Additionally, I was getting freezes when not even doing input. Most of the worst freezes occurred when downloading.

Just reporting in case anyone else was having the same issue I had. Typing was slow and choppy on aosp and had a roughly 80% chance of lockup. Since switching to Google keyboard that hasn't happened a single time.

[Q] [Help] freezing S3.

My galaxy s3 has been freezing none stop just suddenly the main screen freezes after that the captive buttons stop working then the notification bar stops working after that the icon animation in the notification (like when its downloading an app).
It completely freezes, the best way to deal with it is long press the power button or removing the battery,
Sometimes it freezes when I swipe between the home screens. Others when opening the play store or typing.
Some times freezes after 2 hours sometimes 5 minutes others 12 hours.

it might also be the SD card - try formatting it, or taking it out and giving the system a try
Just download and flash XXEMB1 firmware and all freezing problems should be gone.
If it's not won't be gone it's definitely SD card problem.

[Q] What's wrong with my Nexus 5/Android

Hi Everyone,
I need help on my nexus 5/Android 4.4.2. I want to be able to troubleshoot and figure out why my nexus 5 is acting strange -at least the OS part of it.
A BIT OF HISTORY: I just recently purchased this phone in the US through a friend.
THE SITUATION/ISSUES:
- When I go to the app drawer, sometimes the wall paper in the background turns black and comes back just after I tap a an app
- When I use the chrome browser and surf the web some something, it reloads the page I am viewing without me triggering reload. It's kinda annoying that it reloads pages i am viewing. Quiet a few times chrome crashed.
- When I use youtube and tap the voice command to search for videos, it accepts the command but it doesn't load the videos I wanted to search.
- Sometimes, when I tap the home button it kinda reloads the home screen.
I thought that it might be just the OS and maybe a glitch or something. I tried factory reset (vanilla android) a few times but it is the same. I have tried cyanogenmod 11 on it and it is still the same issues.
I am a newbie. This is my first nexus android. I have used HTC desire HD for a month and it doesn't have this problem.
If I am unclear with describing my situation/problem please let me know.

Since it persists in different roms looks like a hardware issue.. More of an ram issue is what I can make of.. Take a logcat and send it my way and I'll look at it.
The last 2 errors are pretty common. The last one is because your launcher is not locked on ram.

Thanks for the reply MasterAwesome.
I have just downloaded aLogCat to log issues on my phone. Once I've gathered enough activity/issues, I'll send it your way.
Are issues likes these common in Nexus 5's? I've reverted back to my Stock Android.
YouTube issue: I didn't update the YouTube app and the voice search feature on it worked fine - at least for now that seems to be the fix for it.
Chrome Browser reloading issue: I haven't found a fix but Chrome Beta seem to work fine. Still reloads but not quite as often. I think this reloading issue isn't just contained in Chrome Browser.
Skype Video Call issue: I forgot to mention that I used Skype for a video call once and every 1-3 minutes the video drops (but not the call) I would have to press back to go out of the call without hanging up and get back to it. That seem to reload the video again.

They are common? I have an N5 and have a few friends with them and hang out in the Nexus 5 forums too. It's definitely not that common. I've flashed dozens of roms on my phone and have not experienced any of these problems besides Chrome reloading a few times, though even that only happened a few times. I also use Nova Launcher and have never seen it reload (besides waiting for a new theme to load) or flake out once.

YP-G70 SGP5 USA cm11 FC issues?

Am having random reboots - just had one mins ago posting reply w/xdafree app here but not sure if ROM related as xda app auto installed itself on sdcard which also caused its icon to disappear from home screen at reboots and this has been found to likely not be ROM related. Also having random power offs and random browser FC. Am running 1200 OC & on demand CPU governor & trying to run as min as poss to save battery. Hardly ever get past 3 days uptime.
Model: YP-G70
Android: 4.4.4 CM11-20140712-UNOFFICIAL-venturi

Oclocking on this ROM does lead to some random reboots. Try to go back to default.

Just had another browser FC just reading news - it froze and finally came back with a dialog box to say browser has stopped running. I tried it again and same thing happened but this time it came back with a dialog box that systemui had stopped. Trying to OK that msg cause it to just loop the same msg over again. I was able to short press the power button to get the power menu to show behind the msg box and in between OKs just enough time to request reboot.

:what: <grin> Made it to 3 days and so many hours, either 8 or 18, can't recall eventho I just viewed it - thought it might make it thru 4 days for a first - wishful thinking I guess. The app I'm using is called system uptime but doesn't tell how long the last run was. I wasn't really doing anything heavy - reading news - and put it down - a few mins later it auto locked the screen - then a few mins later it just reboots just sitting there!

Just curious if you've tried other KitKat Roms, and if you have, what your experience has been with them. Right now for me, Carbon using the default performance settings has been the most stable and best performing.
No, I haven't. Am new to this thx to dosdude1 and his YouTube vid how to get sgp5 to cm and my constant search how to safely do these flashes. So not complaining about these reboots - its only annoying if ur in the middle of doing something - else can live with it so far - it reboots pretty fast and sometimes only realize it because of uptime. Just curious about it and sharing my experience with it.
Have started looking around at ROMs - I tend to min types and saw carbon & slim & others. But realized I had vid help with my first and now a larger learn curve for next steps. I need to read about ADB & fastboot & TB-pro & kernels & more before considering another safe move - brick fears! But thx for the tip.

One other thing I noticed - apps were newly auto updating for some reason - didn't know it but play store had auto update option on - so turned it off - might help.

Well, I'm not too sure about this, but try keeping overclock off unless your phone is running irritatingly slow. From my experience with the YP-G70 (US) model, there were usually three main factors in those oh - so - annoying random reboots: 1) there are some mischievous, misbehaving apps running, 2) the phone is being overclocked, or 3) the ROM you currently have is buggy or not working properly. I think your problem is probably a combination of 2 and 3. Hope this post helped

Yes this helps. Would love to try a new ROM too but still in learning mode. I wanna get good w/TiBu.
I stopped using system uptime app and found device uptime (has a log file & no widget) and got to 5 days before reboot. Thought using the orig app might've been contributing but only got to 1 or 2 days max after & one more random power down.
But I realized system uptime app was still installed and, even though not running it directly, it was maybe still running in background. So I uninstalled it completely to see if this app was poss a factor for now.

The best way to learn is by doing.
First of all, make a nandroid backup so you have a safety net in case things go wrong. Then you can try flashing another ROM.
If you don't like it, just restore and try something else.
Good luck!

What I got is, sometimes when starting the N10 while charging, there is no sound at all, and I have to reboot the N10 without charging to get the sound back.
I tried with 5.1 and so far, 5-6 times, no bug, but as I said is only happening sometimes before...
Audio Bug Squashed?
It looks like 5.1 has fixed the audio bug. It has for me at least.

Using the default Launcher3, not really. The Google Launcher lags when pulling down the tray, and lags all other animations for that matter. It always has since 4.4, but I put up with it because I like the GEL. It doesn't lag anywhere else thankfully, so it's your call.
On March 10th I did a factory image update to 5.1 but did not wipe user data on both my Nexus 10 and 5.. At least for me, this is the best version of Lollipop I've experienced.
My Nexus 10 was more stable than my Nexus 5 on any 5.0.x release but it seems that all the issues I'd been experiencing are resolved. On 5.0.x my Nexus 5 experienced the memory leak causing UI slow downs, odd reboots, total freezes needing power cycles and frequent disconnects of both WiFi and my cell network.
Android 5.1.0 did break the K9 email reader but that was fixed this morning and Jota+ SMB support currently is not functioning. On the Nexus 10 my battery stats still does not update always showing 100% charge even when its been off the charger for hours. Its been like that for a long time including with KitKat.
I am rooted and use a number of app beta versions including Nova Launcher, GMD Gesture Control and GMD Auto Hide Software keys, Viper4Android and they all worked before and after the OS update. That is a little surprising as previous Lollipop 5.0.x updates had broken more apps when they were first released. For the first time in a long time MX Player Pro still worked after an OS upgrade.
This was what the Lollipop release should have been. I'm happy especially as my Nexus 5 is as reliable as it was with KitKat.
That's great. Smooth
My 5.02 Nexus got an OTA to 5.1 last night (I'm in the UK). Everything seems fine and I am really happy that I have a tablet that is still supported.

Hi.
I have narrowed it down to when i bring up google search with the swipe up gesture. Once on google search the screen becomes unresponsive. But a can reboot by pressing the power button and choosing 'reboot now'. I may try and reinstall it.
This only started happening with 5.1.

Nexus 9 keeps closing background apps

Hi guys, can anyone tell me how can I fix this situation, because when I'm using my Nexus 9 most of the times when I minimize an app and open other, most of the time the app that I minimize will restart.
Did a factory defaults and options in developper seem to be ok, no restritctions regarding apps on backgroung.
Usually I play Star wars Galaxy of heroes, and if I change to discord (chat app) when I return it restarts my game
I also noticed that Ram availability is low, and I did a factory default 2 days ago, only installed the game and discord, nothing else.
Any suggestion?? Should I Root and Install a new ROM, if so what would you recommend?
I would prefer to Keep the actual OS if there's a fix for it
Thanks
I can't help but wonder if this is similar to what mine does. The apps in the recent display disappear -not all of them but definitely 50%. This does not happen on my N5X. I can't say when it started but at least 4 months ago.

Hi, the apps don't disappear, the tabs are there, they simply restart when I select them instead of just changing back to the previously running app.
It's kind of annoying when I'm on the middle of a game and want to check out something else, if I switch to chrome or other app there is a big risk that the game will restart and I will lost any progression made...same happens with other apps.
