Hey guys,
I've been running AOKP ICS (M3) on my GTab 10.1 WiFi for the last few days with flawless performance and very few issues. However, I am experiencing problems in the stock browser. After, several minutes of surfing, the browser becomes very laggy. Soon after pages fail to load and hang around 10%. At this point the browser is unusable. The problem persists until I close the browser and force close it. Has any one else experienced this issue on ICS? Any fixes?
Note: I have tried all of the obvious fixes like wiping cache, data, reinstalling from, etc.
Thanks!

It seems to happen on image and java intensive sites for me. I found using an ad blocker fixed most of the freezes. Other than that i think we will just have to wait for an update. (aircanada. Com crashes the browser on every visit)
Yeah memory intensive sites tend to cause this. I just installed an ad blocker, I'll see if it helps. Thanks for the advice!
I'm pretty sure once everything with tegra 2 gets sorted out completely, it'll work fine.
Same problem here
ics is more smooth than honeycomb, I don't want to flash back because of this glitch.
I have installed the ads blocker before but problem still
anyone have the solution ?
Guys, a bit OT maybe, but seems like a good place to ask
I was also trying this ICS build yesterday and loved what I saw, but there were two main problems that are deal-breakers for me at the moment:
- I can't subsribe to any Google services (gmail, reader, market), because there's no way to sync google account as as actual "google account",
- because of above, I can't install - from the android.market.com - apps that I already had, because it says I already have them installed; I have to look around the web for .apk-s and install manually
Did you also had those problems? Is it the same for every ICS build out there? Will this be fixed for the final Cyanogenmod9 release?
For the time being, I'll stay on GalaxyTask 13...
Well, the ad blocker definitley seems to help and my issues with the browser are far less frequent.
@antic604
I would do a full wipe, then install the latest version and don't forget to flash gapps afterward.
Try setting pluggins to on demand.
Same thing here on my asus prime, even if my plugin is on demand. I didn't have this issue on my prev asus. I'm very disappointed. This OS is just like a beta version. So the prime with ics is very bad value for the money. I don't know what to do, sell it or wipe and load a new rom :-/

Yeah I have the exact same problem.
I use Chrome Beta whenever the Stock browser becomes laggy and hangs, it's very annoying.
This problem I have and the face .avi files get deleted, I have placed a fair few series on my Tab and wanted to access some and half of them were gone.
This happened a few times already.
Their have been several reports of the widget engine crashing on some ICS ROM's in the developers forums. From what I have found out is an issue with the layout of the screen this is causing the issue. I you notice, the widgets that have a 5x size are the ones that are crashing. Lets use Jorte Calendar as an example. Install Jorte and try to load a widget, it crashes. Ok, now go into Jorte setting > widget setting, and make all the 5x widget unavailable. Problem solved. This problem does not exist in other launchers, on in the default launcher.
I would have posted this in the developers forum, but I am new to this forum.
The development area would've been the wrong place to put this. Due to the fact that that section is for dev's to post their creations and such.
As for your problem I am not sure. I couldn't open then personalize tab when I was running ICS. Usually a reboot fixed that problem though.

You must not have understood my post. The developers do not know what the problem is. I was stating that I have a clue of what the problem is.
The problem lye's in the way the launcher deals with widgets that are too big for the screen. When the launcher tries to access a widget that is too big for the screen layout (4x4), the widget engine crashes instead of ignoring the over sized widgets.
Our threads differ a little bit. I'm making a list of bad apps, while you got a potential solution. you may want to PM a dev. they can work magic
Okay. THanks
I have only experienced the widget FC on one custom ROM. I believe it had something to do with one of the apps I installed, because it worked fine until I started downloading applications from the market. I tried a few times to reflash to pin point, but I didn't have a lot of time to see if that was the main cause of the issue.
personalize problems in ICS
I finally gave up on ICS yesterday after struggling for a week with problems with personalizing screens. I tried to narrow the problem down to specific apps, but eventually concluded that it was not caused by specific apps involving widgets. Every time that I downloaded more than a half-dozen apps from the market, I would start getting the "unfortunately, personalize has stopped working" messages, preventing me from adding any further apps to home screens. I could continue adding widgets or shortcuts, but not apps. Not even rebooting helped, and I would end up having to re-flash the ROM and start all over. It seemed to depend on the number of market apps that I downloaded, not necessarily the specific app. Even apps without widgets such as quickboot would cause the crash after the first half-dozen apps were downloaded.

Joelz latest sense rom has a fix included that will eliminate this problem. It completely worked for me, and I was having it big time.
Thanks, I will check that out. You are TheMan!
Edit: actually, it was his ROM that I was using when I had all the problems. It was ICS Sense Redefined-Always Brilliant![Sense 3.6][4.0.3]. I could never get past the personalize problem to add more than a few app short cuts.
even after jolez fix im having problems on scotts rom... i had no problem on his 2.3 but when i flashed his 2.4 all hell broke lose... i cant even some apps from the market like engadget? and no i havent done any other modding except installing apps?
anyone have any ideas bc right now i only have about 20 apps installed that actually work
Same here. Lots of FC's and some apps don't work.

I had to bail on ICS after struggling mightily to resolve the personalize problem, and I was scared to death about bricking the brand new phone after fighting the mainver problem seeking a return to stock root. Luckily, I found the RezRom GB Rom that includes an automatic fix for reversion from ICS. I highly recommend it, though I quickly nandroided back to stock root. I will be going back to RezRom this weekend when I have more time to tweak it.
The FC's of Sense and personalization appears to be related to apps installed on the SD Card.
Go into settings > apps > on phone (2nd tab) and uncheck any apps that have a check mark and move them to the phone.
If you have none checked and still getting the FC's then for sure I am wrong.
^ but none of mine are on the SD card?
Getting it on cleanROM 3.0 for the first time, no apps on sd card.

Hangouts with sms is great along with the other updated apps, but damn I love the Google Experience launcher. Way less options than nova or apex, but the always-on hotword detection on homescreens is great. Just wondering if anyone else here is trying them out?

i think i installed 90% of them, so far so good. i cant wait for our phone to have it.
Apparently CM will continue to focus on 4.3 builds, so I don't expect a CM11 anytime soon. Knowing our luck with this device, we'll probably have issues with kit kat builds anyway. Still, the launcher and hangouts are pretty badass. It's just a shame there's no official support for icon packs with stock launchers. I have to use an xposed module to use my icon pack of choice on this new launcher and I sometimes feel like it slightly slows the device down.

They're over seas right now at the Oppo factory. Steve is normally the one that merges the new source. Give it a few months, well see test builds.

I had most of the 4.4 .APKs (including the launcher and Google Now) installed on my cm10.2 build for the past day or so, but today I experienced the crash/bootloop scenario that's been plaguing the nightly builds lately; after a forced reboot, all the 4.4 apps were gone, and since I had frozen Trebuchet in TiBU, I was without a launcher and had to restore a NAND backup. Was I supposed to lock all the 4.4 apps into the system folder or something?

I don't know why they would disappear but you could have enabled trebuchet without restoring. You could have accessed the settings through quick settings, went to the apps section, found trebuchet and hit enable. Also, there's no reason to freeze it. Once you switch to a different launcher and reboot, none of your other installed launchers will run. Just for future reference.

Settings was even crashing upon opening; it was incredibly odd. As for the freezing, I and many others who installed the 4.4 launcher were experiencing the default launcher setting not sticking even after setting it to the 4.4 launcher; freezing Trebuchet (the only other one I had installed) fixed this. But that obviously didn't work out so well for me...
Which thread are you getting the apk files from?

I browse /r/Android on reddit often, and people were going nuts posting links to all the apks. I'm sure they're all over the internet by now.
But yes, that's the launcher I'm running. It's so limited in features compared to others, but it really does everything I need. Some people don't seem to like the google now to the left of the main homescreen, but I'm digging it.
I'm really hoping for kit kat to make it's way to our device though. I saw there's a CM11 branch, but who knows what kind of code needs updating and/or compatibility issues.
Do you need to be rooted to do this I keep getting a parsing error

Checking it out myself, thanks to your thread, however after installing the apks I somehow seem to have broken the "okay Google" feature. Google search updated itself and all after installation but even if I choose search manually now it still won't respond to the command.
Your right tho, the launcher is simple but works well. The only thing I don't care for is the constant Google search box on the home screen especially when all you have to do is say the command and it goes straight there.

CM11 Alpha for the INC4G
You've got to check out Cyanogenmod 11 for our device. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2552150 I had to flash the updated Recovery but I have had no issues so far. There's a fair bit in 4.4 that you don't get from the base Kit Kat apps that you can install for 4.1 and up.
CM 11 nightly
I've been using the nightly from 12-26 and it is 4.4.2 I have had no issues at all, and it seems to be running smooth. Battery is draining pretty well, but it does in any rom due to the lack of signal from my house. I'm at the office now, running wifi and it seems to be draining less.
I just recently installed the stable version of CM10.1.3 and it works great. After that I installed the updated google search along with the new Google Experience Launcher. I was able to get the new launcher to work pretty much flawlessly, with google now integration and hotword activation from any screen. There appears to be one issue though...when i reboot my phone the icons from all apps on the SDcard (not my external sdcard) disappear from the various pages. Anyone else have this issue or know how to solve it.
Thanks!!

This seems to be an issue with the Google Experience Launcher. I just had the same problem after switching to it on my Samsung Galaxy S4 Active with stock Android 4.2.2 firmware. Unfortunately I do not know how to fix it yet (or even if it can be fixed). This may need to be resolved by Google.
Even if wait sometime (5 min) after reboot does it appear?
I do not believe so. I had several folders that I had put shortcuts in and most of the shortcuts disappeared and never came back.
I pretty much gave up on using GEL for the time being and went back to TouchWiz. Having the always-on voice search was nice, but it's not worth missing my icons on reboot. Plus, TW does a better job of navigating quickly through different windows than GEL because I can quickly tap the exact page that I want in TW where I have to keep swiping over and over in GEL (and TW loops around when you reach the last page). Maybe I'll try GEL again next release.
Hi!
I had the same issue with CM 10.1, now I'm using CM 10.2 and the failure was still there.
Have you tried to mount the apps again but not from a backup (titanium bckp, supe bckp, etc) but directly from the play store?, I made that and it seems to work despite I'm trying not to move the apps to the external sd card (just in case).
Regards.
Hi there..
I was using Omni Rom and had the same problem, moved to CM 11, same problem..
I am using SGS2 i9100.
Anyone any idea?
Update:
seems to be fixed with Adroid 4.4.3:
http://stadt-bremerhaven.de/android-4-4-3-mit-vielen-bugfixes-aufgetaucht/
"app shortcuts sometimes got removed from launcher after update"
:good:
Mine also missing..
I'm using CM11 for galaxy wonder. When i moved the apps to sdcard, i still can play before reboot.After i rebooting , my apps disappear and i tried to reboot many times also didnt appear... Please help me to fix it..
To solve this problem I used SiMi Folder. see this link
Easy workaround- just force stop the launcher you are using (slim launcher in my case) and the icons should re-appear.
This seems like a common problem, but I haven't seen this specific form of it, so I'll lay it out.
Running CM10.1 I get the common Play Store error "insufficient storage available" when I try to update apps. I've recently noticed that it only happens with apps with "Google Inc" listed as the developer. Everything else works fine. I've tried wiping every cache I can find. I've tried booting in recovery and wiping the cache (including the Dalvik cache) that way.
I've uninstalled the updates to the Play Store app and related system framework. I have not tried uninstalling the updates to any other Google apps, because I'm currently unable to update or install any Google app.
As much as I hate to admit it, I've even tried Lucky Patcher. It has worked for me in the past with similar issues, but not this time.
A cursory Google seems to suggest that this problem is gone (or at least MUCH less common) in CM11, but CM11 hasn't been released for the Note 2 yet.
Does anyone have any advice? I don't want to reflash, because that's not a solution. I'll just have the same problem again in a month. If nothing else works, I will reflash, but I really don't want to.

Didn't say it wasn't available. Said it hasn't been released. I don't do nightlies or other unstables. Don't have time to reflash every few days to keep up with big fixes.

Maybe I'll give that a try. If I have to flash, I'd really rather be certain that it will solve my problem without creating new ones. If I flash a nightly, then decide I need to go back to the 10.1 release, I'll feel like I wasted a day trying to get blood from a stone since I could have just reflashed my current rom and only set everything up once.
It's not the flashing that bothers me. I'll flash four devices before breakfast and not even blink. I actually enjoy the hackery. It's the hour of work flipping through all the system settings and installing apps to get things running the way I like them that makes me want to flash as infrequently as possible.
But two important questions remain. First (and most relevant): is this issue (inability to update Google apps) as common and crippling in CM 11 as it is in CM 10? Second: does CM 11 restore the "move app to SD card" button to the app manager?
To be honest, that's more important to me. Less relevant to this conversation, but more important to my workflow. It's actually a dealbreaker. I love CM, but I'll flash back to CleanVZW before I load another OS that doesn't give me that functionality.
