[Q] Tiny Cam Monitor Pro issues - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Is anyone using Tiny Cam Monitor Pro with Foscam FI8910W wireless IP cams? I use these as baby monitor cams, and i am having an issue with audio lag. The longer I have the monitor on with sound enabled, the audio gets delayed longer and longer. After about 8 hrs, the lag is something like 7-10 seconds. Video is still live, but audio lags. I have this issue on two different tablets. Also tried using the cameras IP address directly as well as the "house" IP address.
I've emailed the dev a few weeks ago, but have not received a reply.
Thanks

Old thread, I know. I wanted to post up and say that I'm having the exact same issues with another device. I don't thing it's the Galaxy itself, but maybe the way TinyCam or Android handle the incoming audio data. I'm wondering if there is something in Tasker that can be used to empty an audio cache every half hour or so to keep the audio a little closer to the actual video feed. Any other insight anyone?

I did finally get a reply back from the dev 3-4 months after my last post. He was able to duplicate the issue and he said it was an issue with the Foscam cameras. He said he would try and tweak something to get it to work. I have not seen any updates that addressed the issue. All that needs to happen to get the audio back in sync is to toggle the speaker icon. I;m not familiar with Tasker, but that is all that needs to be done as a work around.

[Q] Netflix still working? Video out to Pioneer deck? GPS? Other Misc Issues

1. I haven't seen anything posted but I could have sworn there was a link somewhere to a modified flash player that allowed netflix to work on the TB?
2. Also is there ANY WAY to get Netflix, Pandora, or ANY application to do video output to any Pioneer deck?
If not, OK, is there a way to use the TB or ANY android phone as a GPS nav with a Pioneer for example? The deck connects to an ipod/iphone directly and allows you to output video from apps including MotionX GPS which works great!
3. Verizon is the FIRST provider I have been with that has had this issue but if you are on the phone with two people and try and end one call it actually kills both calls and SOMETIMES redials the last person you were speaking to. It doesn't always work unforunately. They claim it affects all phones but the iPhone 4 I have I haven't had that issue on. I was on with tech support for over an hour trying to get them to understand the problem, then they acknowledged it was a defect in the phone that was not fixable. THEN they said it was a network limitation with Verizon.
Thanks in advance for any answers.

[Q] Touchwiz crash with Bluetooth

Hello,
I am having a problem where Touchwiz crashes after about half an hour to an hour of listening to Bluetooth audio through my car stereo.
The problem does not occur with the stock music player (or hasn't yet in the timeframes I've been testing it). However it occurs with pretty much any other player I've tried (thus far PlayerPro, Poweramp, and Audible). The symptoms are pretty much always the same. Audio works perfectly for quite a while, then it stops, phone kind of freezes for a couple of seconds, then Touchwiz resets. Often after it restarts I have trouble either connecting to or playing audio through Bluetooth. Sometimes that fixes itself, sometimes I have to do a full reboot.
I have had the device replaced in case it was a Bluetooth hardware issue but I'm having the same issue on the new handset. So far the issue is 100% reproducible.
It's an unrooted, stock phone running IMM76D.I9300XXALF2. I'm on Three UK. At this stage I am not planning to root the device. However if there was a clear reason why doing so might fix this issue then I might.
Has anyone experienced this issue?
If someone has time to have a look, I have managed to record an ADB log from the crash. I believe the crash happens at 20:29:36 - based on there being a lot of information about a Fatal Signal 11 at that point (although I did think that was just related to specific apps crashing), and then all the services die very soon after.
At some point, I will try with another Bluetooth stereo to see if it's specific to my current one. But I don't have any available, so was hoping someone might be able to help narrow things down in the meantime.
I've also gone to Samsung with the issue, and sent them the log, but who knows if they'll ever get back with anything useful.
Touchwiz crash with Bluetooth
Hi.
I have the same problem with an S2 LTE (not S3) from Rogers in Canada and a JVC radio except mine crashes after 30 minutes. It worked fine before upgrading from 2.3 to 4.0.4.
Model SGH-I727R
Version 4.0.4
Baseband version: I727RUXLF3
Kernel 3.0.8-perf-I727RUXLF3-CL611724 [email protected] #1. Compiled Sat Jun 9, 21:24:26 KST 2012
Build number: IMM76D.RUXLF3
When playing a podcast (BeyondPod) or audiobook (Audible) for 30 minutes, the phone freezes and a few seconds later the screen locks and all the status icons disappear. They all come back as if the phone just booted but it's not the long boot you would get if you powered off and on so it must be Touchwiz crashing. I also see a notice saying it's safe to remove my SDCard and then it re-mounts.
For me it is 30 minutes +/- 1 minute and it's consistent. If I shut off Bluetooth and immediately turn it back on after 25 minutes, I will have another 30 minutes without any problems.
I tried manually unmounting the SDCard while streaming over Bluetooth and it gracefully shut down the application and unmounted the card without any issues.
Others have had this issue too. Google for 'Issue 28006: ICS Bluetooth and Sony car headset'
I contacted Samsung support but so far they haven't helped. Their first response was to take it back to the carrier.
Have you find a solution for this? If not can you submit a support request with Samsung? If they get enough reports maybe they'll do something.

That's quite interesting. Mine is also a JVC stereo so I wonder if that's related. Mine could be exactly 30 minutes - I've not actually checked that. I will next time.
Out of interest, have you used PowerAmp before? The log I attached is from using PowerAmp, but since a recent update it actually seems to be fixed in that! But it still happens in Audible and other audio apps. I'd be interested to see if it works for you as well.
Samsung haven't been particularly helpful, other than saying they will look at the ADB log and release an update (for the SIII) if "it turns out to be a real issue" (which annoyed be, because it obviously is a real issue).
The Audible developers on the other hand are very interested and I have provided them quite a bit of info on the problem. I will pass them this thread too. I should try out the shutting off Bluetooth thing as a work around. Surprised I hadn't until now.
I haven't used PowerAmp but I did try the stock Android music player and it also crashed. I played a one hour podcast and after around 35 minutes it crashed as usual. At first I thought it was going to keep working as it's usually right around 30 minutes but it did eventually crash.
Did you report the problem to the PowerAmp author or was it just luck that the new version had a fix for it?
Samsung sent me an RMA shipping label. I have no plans on sending back my device for a software bug only to get back someone else's defective/fixed unit back with the same bug.
If this really is a bug in Touchwiz on ICS then we should ask others to test it in a general forum. I don't think this happens when playing music, only when playing one stream over 30 minutes. We need to find more people with a Samsung, ICS and bluetooth receiver to test..
That's very interesting information. I will try a single audio stream on the stock player and power amp. But it does happen for me with multiple streams in other apps (PlayerPro for example), but it could be related to how it plays them - perhaps it combines them into a single stream.
In fact, thinking about it, it could well be that. I don't think the previous version of PowerAmp showed the song title over Bluetooth, so it may have just combined multiple songs into a single stream as far as the Bluetooth stack was concerned. But now it does, so that might break the stream each song.
And I had not informed them about it, it was just luck. And they haven't responded to my queries regarding what they changed (which of course, may not matter).
I have already replaced mine (through Amazon), and of course the problem didn't change at all. Meaning it's the software (and perhaps the specific Bluetooth devices), not the individual phone.
I am going to test mine with a different Bluetooth receiver at some point, and might also get other people to try their phone with my stereo. According to the person I've been in contact with at Audible, it is only affecting Verizon customers in the US (that they know of), and haven't been able to reproduce it themselves.

Periodic noise during music playback while WiFi is on but not connected

Trying to determine if this is a software bug or a hardware problem. Looking for some additional people to test and verify.
ISSUE:
While listening to music, I hear a periodic, short duration, low-volume burst of static. This only happens when WiFi is on but not connected (searching for network to join). This also only happens with headphones (at least I have not been able to hear it over bluetooth).
NOTES:
I have tried both the HTC stock music app to listen to music stored on the external SD card and Google Play Music to stream data from the cloud.
The period of the noise is 15 seconds when on a Jelly Bean ROM (I have tried both MeanBean and xHausx's stock ROM. When I was on MeanROM ICS, the period appeared to be 17 seconds.
The duration of the noise is 1/4 second or less.
The volume of the noise is very low. I recommend trying to reproduce the problem with very quiet music.
Wifi must be on and scanning to hear the noise. With Jelly Bean, the WiFi scanning interval appears to be 15 seconds (I did not check the scanning interval when on ICS). I recommend not being near a network that you can connect to when testing this.
I am S-OFF with the original LazyPanda HBOOT (1.12.2222) with the latest firmware installed from xHausx's thread.
BACKGROUND:
Here are some posts where this issue has been discussed in other threads:
JustinChase's first post regarding the issue in the MeanROM ICS Thread
Follow up later in the thread: #1, #2
Continuing discussion in MeanBean thread​
Thanks in advance for any testing you can do!
I have the same exact problem even connected to WiFi. As long as I have WiFi turned on I can reproduce the static noises you speak of on both stock rooted 4.1 and meanbean roms. S-off also :/
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
I also have the issue, but only when wifi is turned on, but not connected to a network. If I have no network remembered (nothing for it to try to connect to), I don't hear the problem then.
The noise is a static, crackling noise, which sounds like 'machine noise' that I also hear when I'm listening to my desktop computer with headphones thru the crappy motherboard connections. On the desktop, whenever I move the mouse wheel, or put the system under load, I hear 'machine noise' thru the headphones, likely related to poorly designed/shielded onboard audio.
This makes me think if might be hardware related, but the fact that it only happens when wifi is trying to connect to a remembered network makes me think it's software related.
The noise is always the same volume, which isn't very loud. If you listen to your music at 1/2 or higher volume, you will likely not hear it, but if you listen at about 1/4 volume, or lower, it's a pretty loud and very annoying noise. I almost always hear it at the end of a song, but hear it throughout songs also.
I'm s-off, so don't really want to go complaining to Sprint about it yet, but since it seems only a few other people have reported the same issue, I suspect it might by phone specific.
I would really appreciate anyone/everyone testing this and providing feedback, even if it's 'I don't hear this, you're crazy', at least I'd know
To test, make sure that you have a wifi network remembered on the phone, go to a place where wifi cannot connect to the network (or any other network), then play music with the stock music app (the red musical note icon), make sure the volume is less than 1/3 and you should hear this noise within a minute or 2. Some have reported every 15 seconds, but I'm not sure I hear it quite that often. If you make it thru 2 songs with no noise, you probably don't suffer.
Thanks, looking forward to some feedback
Hmm... Very odd. I might have a little input or it may be completely unrelated.
Are you guys with this issue using PowerAmp music player (i use that, it is AMAZING).
Anyway, I noticed that while using any global beats addins, I usually get a weird staticky noise through my headphones... BUT, this only happens while playing a song and another sound comes up. In example, I am playing an MP3, and I get a text message, or a low battery warning. When the other sounds come into play, it disrupts the music playing, and the notification doesn't even make its sound; just the static interruption where the sound WOULD have been. A fix for this, is to enable [maybe disable? not sure which is the default setting, but just uncheck/check depending if its on or not] the Direct Volume Control option. Doing this allows me to hear the other sounds while playing the music with no interruption.
Now, to get on board with the OP who has this problem on WiFi only. Perhaps it is the same scenario as myself. Maybe your WiFi is giving some sort of SU notice from the makesh that the WiFi mod asks root for.
Sorry if it sounds a bit confusing... But hope it helps!
EDIT: After reading some posts above, I see the problem comes in even with the stock music player. Idk, I still think it has something to do with MusicBox/DSPManager/Volume+ and the WiFi SU notices

That could be a bad port... Or it may be an IRQ problem If you feel comfortable playing with your BIOS on the PC, look into your IRQ settings
Some new info:
I clean installed MeanBean 0.6, connected to my home WiFi, then went to work this morning. Now that I'm at work (and not connected to my home network), the period of the noise is back at 17 seconds. I went to the WiFi settings and deleted my home network settings. Now the noise is at 15 second intervals. The volume of the noise also seems quieter.
I connected to my work's WiFi (they are finally letting "non-corporate controlled devices" connect to the network) and the noise is gone.
I'll have to wait until after work to retest the interval with a remembered network present.
Yesterday, when testing with a stock ROM, I only tested when I had never connected to a network before. So the period may not be ROM or OS version specific.

I have only tried the stock HTC app and Google Play Music. I have some tunes on the Amazon server, so I'll try that one later today.

I don't see the makesh app looking for root when on a Jelly Bean ROM (it doesn't show up in the SuperSU logs either). I wonder if HTC changed that in the 3.15 update.

Where might I find this setting you refer to? As you noticed (after you wrote this), I'm only using the stock music application, and can't find this setting anywere. I suspect it's in the PowerAmp player, but wanted to verify, so that I can try adjusting it. FWIW, I do hear the quiet notification noise while the music is playing (which used to stop the music on ICS - this is MUCH better).

I'd like to 'fix' this issue also, but it's been a LONG time since I've worried about IRQ issues. Windows 7 (and XP?) deals with IRQ issues well, so I haven't seen any conflicts in years. What in the BIOS might I be looking for, and how might I adjust it to try to eliminate this issue? I'm plenty comfortable in the BIOS, but the only IRQ settings I remember are related to forcing it to use a specific IRQ, but wouldn't know what to try changing for positive effect.
I'm plugging into the front audio port of the machine, which connects to the motherboard via a HD audio connector (if I remember correctly). I believe I have the same noise issue when connecting to the audio out on the back of the machine, which is directly connected/part of the motherboard. In fact, I've heard these 'machine noises' on all of my machines for years, so just always assumed it was a symptom of the lower quality audio connections. However, I'd LOVE to eliminate this issue also, if possible.
Sorry for the off topic
This sounds like it's just poor shielding somewhere. I believe the wifi antenna is near the headphone jack so it's probably causing some interference there.
Exactly Haus. Try different headphones or speakers. You could for your headphones get THIS then run a couple of wraps around it through the center near the phone jack, and see if that helps. For speakers the signal could be coming in from many places (power input, signal input, with in audio amp, or the speakers themselves. Now if the sound is coming from the speaker inside the phone.. Well you have much bigger problems than a ROM.
I have the static issue when streaming over Bluetooth with the screen on, wifi on or off, on both stock and custom roms. Turn the screen off, no static. Also, Bluetooth disconnects at random if I leave the screen on and will not reconnect until I unpair and repair with my stereo.
It has to be an issue with jb, as I've never had this issue until the update. Fwiw I'm thinking connections optimizer (on or off) has a hand in this issue.
Think I'm having this too
I was noticing this today on wifi. It would make a crrrik like a cog sound every so often, at first i thought it was the song, then when it did it on the next two I found this thread. It was not just 1x 2x per song it was almost on beat at times. I heard it probably 30 times in 30 second song. Another thought was some file/notification was making the sound in the background.
Turning wifi off so far has resolved problem. It was really annoying. I don't think its an antennae issue since its the same noise each time exactly (including duration) about a .25sec noise. Thinking of antennae interference its usually a scratchy sound that is intermittent duration some long some short etc.
It was extremely unbearable as I listen to the lowest setting on the phone with beats off.

Buetooth issues

I've been having problems with my car's parrot (mki9100) bluetooth. My Redmi Note 2 seems to pair fine with it, but then it just keeps connecting and disconnecting every few seconds. It doesn't share contacts, it doesn't work for calls and it doesn't work for a2dp. I've disabled permission management but the issue persists. I don't seem to be an isolated case as there are people complaining about this on MIUI's forums. I'm running 6.7.5 from en.miui.com.
I've tried the usual stuff, clearing cache/dalvik, even reinstalling the rom; nothing helped.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this?

I was just about to start a thread myself then I saw your post.
Sadly I'm having trouble too. In my case stereo Bluetooth A2DP is awful. I'm constantly having skips and stutters on both devices I have tested so far (a Samsung HS3000 and a Logitech Boombox). I'm currently using the MIUI dev ROM from September 11th. If you're using MIUI 6 then clearly the problem spans numerous ROMs. Poop.
My problems happen regardless of whether or not I'm doing anything else on the device. It also doesn't seem to matter whether or not WiFi or data are enabled.
As a kind of aside, I also can't get my Moga Pro to connect in Mode A. It appears to pair OK but then just won't connect. Searching around for answers, this also something that at least the MiPad suffers from too (since last year!). Looks like Xiaomi has Bluetooth issues full stop.
I like this device, but some of its quirks of both hardware and software are making it more and more likely to end up on an auction site.
I can't wait for a more stock-like rom to be out.
This might be of help to someone: Someone suggested replacing the bluetooth app from /system/data with an older one (needs root).
I wasn't successful in replacing the app. Instructions here:

Thanks for the link.
I tried it too on the developer ROM. It doesn't work (it breaks Bluetooth completely).
A2DP doesn't seem to stutter with music for me after the 17th/18th update. I've only tried a few songs. It's possible that the actual bitrate has decreased though. Apart from the stutters I'm sure it sounded better before. Maybe I'm imagining it.
Briefly tested 6.7.7 and it seems to work! Contacts synced for the first time, A2DP and calls worked. I'll let you know on the audio quality as soon as I have the chance to listen for a longer period of time.

Bluetooth Speaker Popping

Loving the phone so far, but I'm sad to say while connected to my Sony x-7s wireless speaker, I hear a Popping sound about every 15-20 seconds.
I jumped over to my old Note 3 and played the exact same file and the distortion vanished, so I know it's the phone.
Anyone else getting this or know of a workaround? Hopefully it can be fixed by an update.

I'm having the same problem with my V10. Tried it on a Bluetooth headset and a Bluetooth speaker. On WiFi and cellular. Problem does not go away.
same here, only difference is that it happens to certain speaker and not the others.
I've tried on 4 different bluetooth speakers that I have, and on one of them it would sound absolutely horrible and distorted. Tested the same speaker with Note 4 and boom beautiful sound.
I'm lucky that the adapter that I use in the car isn't affected.
Bluetooth audio reminds me of the original OG Pro, which sounded like an over compressed files being broadcast over AM Radio. That problem persisted until it got the KitKat update.
I suspect it has something to do with LG overlooking the need to differentiate compression/bitrates for aptX vs non aptX devices. Its definitely a major letdown, but one likely to be fixed.

streaming on my aptx receiver in the car is perfect, it actually sounded a lot better than my note 4. But yeah, on the cheap portable bluetooth speaker...not so much.
I have the Verizon LG V10 and occasionally hear the popping when connected to my Bose Soundlink III, and cheap BT speaker at work and in my truck (2013 Ford F-150). But what is even worse, it randomly "stutters" on all three as well all the time! I noticed today in my truck that every time it stuttered, the "play" and "pause" buttons flashed on the touch screen--kinda like the phone was telling it to pause and then play very quickly.
Anyone else seeing anything like this? Any ideas to fix? Other than this pretty major issue, I am lovin' this phone! Thanks for any help!

The stutter is killing me as well. I have yet to pin point the exact cause to it, but this is quite unacceptable for a hexacore device.
I use poweramp btway, and I've tried increasing the buffer etc to no avail. At first I thought it was only struggling when google map is running in the background, or when the list of apps are full. But I've tried clearing all recent apps, even without anything in the background it still stutters.
I hope someone figures out what's wrong. Coming from note 4, I'm a little disappointed with all of these random quirks that frankly is unacceptable for a flagship device.

My problem occurs with Google Play music streaming as well as downloaded playlists; the stock LG app with the LG that came with the phone and streaming Pandora. And occurs whether connected to my Bose SLIII, my truck or SoundPal speaker at work... I've tried clearing all recent apps, restarting the music app and restarting the phone... none of that works... Very disappointing and sure hope a fix comes out from somewhere soon!

so I finally rooted and hard reset last night. Two things that I've changed now:
-Unchecked the NuPlayer option under developer mode
-Installed Viper4android
so far...no skipping yet!
So maybe you can try unchecking the Nuplayer option to see if it helps. Also, I suspected it could be some other app like AdGuard that I installed before I rooted. I don't have that anymore since I'm back to Xposed.

I'm on Verizon so rooting is not an option... yet... I'll try selecting the AwesomePlayer instead of NuPlayer and see if that makes any difference. Thanks!
I just switched to awesomeplayer and it seems to be working better, but it's still being a little weird.

I spoke too soon, the issues are coming back again now.
I noticed that the audio will start popping when data is flowing. e.g. when a notification is coming in, a text, an incoming whatsapp chat, a movement in map, etc.
this is frustrating.
Google Now Voice Settings
So I had this problem appear about a week ago, and then I tracked down what I changed. Try disabling Bluetooth Headset in the Google now voice settings. I turned it on hoping it would make OK Google detection better with my head unit. It didn't, it just made the audio pop every 3 seconds.
TL;Dr turn off Bluetooth Headset in Google now - voice settings.

mine has always been off, issue still persists. I've resorted to it being an LG issue as I never had this issue with any Samsung phones I've had.

Yeah, turns out it only reduced the issue, not removed it. I don't understand why it would suddenly appear for me. Worked fine for 6 months, had the Marshmallow update for a while now. Suddenly one day it starts sounding like crap.

I usually reboot when it gets really bad, then it'll be good for some time before it starts popping like crazy again.
Again, this is not a new issue for LG. It's been reported since the day of G2.
I am having the same issue ATT LG V10 not rooted, Google voice Bluetooth headset settings is off. I have the problem when listening with my jaybird headset or 2016 Honda fit, mostly with Google music and beyond pod whether audio is downloaded or streaming. As a Samsung Note user for many years this is disappointing and debilitating!
I cleared the cache for all apps, and the skipping went away. I'm going to see how long it takes before it comes back.
Yeah, had this issue with my LG G3 and now with this phone. Not sure how LG can continually use poor Bluetooth chips. Other devices work fine but this one pops so often, it's painful using my Bluetooth headphones or speakers. It's sad cause I love the amp on it when listening wired.
Fixed (so far) my Bluetooth problems by disabling (check the box) battery optimization on system apps. My solution post http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/help/marshmallow-blue-tooth-problems-solved-t3409943/page1
