Hello everyone I have the HTC One M8 running CM13 and I have this problem where VR apps start rapidly clicking with this white dot in the middle of the screen as soon as they're started up. The phone then becomes unresponsive as it is registering clicks from it, making the phone freeze up. The only way I can get out of this is by locking the phone and rebooting the phone from the lock screen. I thought it was the magnetometer in the phone doing this so I installed an app to read it and searched up the normal ratings for what the sensor should be at and everything looks fine. I have tried reinstalling Android with a different version and still the issue persists. After a while the phone starts heating up from this and on some of the VR apps I have tried that use the same cardboard system the phone will rapidly vibrate as well. I have spent hours trying to figure out what may be causing this and still, no luck. The phone is not in a case, no magnets are any where near it. NFC is turned off, all apps are updated. If anyone knows a solution to this issue that would be great, thanks!
*Bump* I still have this issue, can someone please help me with this?
It now seems to be happening in Pokemon Go... *Sighs*

I have the exact same issue, the only time when the white dot wasn't showing was when my gyroscope was malfunctioning or just simply "off". I have no clue how to switch it off though.

had the exact same issue. same in pokemon go which ist a vr app. on several cm13 roms on my old m8.
only way i could fix it was to install a GPE rom. might be a cm13 bug for the m8 which never got fixed. so i guess anything not cm (aosp, gpe, stock) will work.
i dont own the m8 anymore but my old one and the one of a friend had ur issue on cm13. on gpe rom everything worked.

This problem was fixed a long time ago. The problem was the uncalibrated gyroscope, which they took out a few days after this thread was made. Just update your phone and it should work
Same exact issue
I have an Lgg3, same process I removed the magnet thinking that was the issue, I updated all apps, removed app and re-downloaded them, have an unlocked phone running total wireless so I used a Verizon sim and updated the phone to the newest version, recalibrated the phone, nothing I mean nothing I can find will work for this issue that I can find. Only does it with 360 apps not on 180.

Hey guys,
My dad has an i9000 Galaxy S and there seems to be a really weird issue with it. He was using the phone's camera and was capturing some pictures when suddenly the screen distorted and since then, the camera hasn't been working. All I can see is a black screen, the camera app opens up but I see nothing but black, buttons on stock ROM are un-touchable, whereas on ICS roms, we can fiddle with the buttons but they don't work. Even the front camera doesn't seem to be working. I have a HTC Sensation and am soon getting the Gnex so I have no idea about what happened with this phone.
Could you please help me out?
Thanks,
Arz
I'm having a similar problem. I've tried reflashing back to stock, wiping, resetting, etc, etc... but nothing seems to work.
Can't seem to find a solution here either. Anyone have any ideas? Might it simply be a hardware fault? Front camera seems to work fine (well as fine as that crappy camera can work)
The exact same thing happened to me.. Just try this:
take off the phone's back cover, and start the camera app.. Keep it on for a few minutes.. Does the area around the camera heat up?
It it does, accompanied by sudden battery drain perhaps, your phone's camera module is fried.. Has to be replaced.. I had to do the same..
I'm experimenting the same problem. did you guys resolve it?

Hello
I have been having some problems with the main camera on the A500. It has different tints to it. Sometimes the picture seems to be divided in 4 and all 4 squares have a different hue to them. Restoring to factory settings seem to take care of it for a while. Initially I thought it was "skype" that messed it up, but it is not.
I just restarted the tablet and the camera is giving me a yellow tint, with a clear horizontal stripe about 3/4 inch wide through the middle.
The tab has stock 3.2 on it.
I was wondering if anyone has experienced similar problems and if there was a solution to the problem.
Thank you
Well, I would think the problem seems to be some app/apps you have installed. Based on when you do a factory reset, it goes away.
I would just do another factory reset. Then verify it went away. Run it for a couple of days WITHOUT installing any apps. This will probably rule out a hardware issue.
Then install apps, 1 at a time. Use the camera, and look for issues.
Thanx. I will give that a try.
I traced it back to Swift Key X keyboard for tablets. How is that even possible?
Also yahoo messenger is another one that ruins the camera. As soon as I install any of those apps and reboot, the camera is back to normal.
Does anyone out there use either of those apps?

So, everything is ok?
Rule #1,
Stay away from apps meant for phones.
Yes, they "may" have tested it it on "1" tablet, then gave it a clean bill of health. Maybe.

I thought it would be ok. But after restarting a few times, the camera colors are off. I'm going to root and install a custom 3.2 to make sure it is not the hardware.
Spasiba for all your help )
any news about this problems.
it seems that my iconia has the same problem- i never noticed it because i dont use the rear camera.
i sold it it today and the guy who bought has described something like what you folks are talking about
the strange thing is that i had done a clean boot before i sold it, and the buyer hasnt installed anything on it yet.
im waiting to hear back from him after he tries another clean boot.
anyone else have any ideas ?
I'm having the same problem. I don't use it much, but the camera was ok before. When I tried using it this weekend, it showed colored translucent squares on the sides. It is not a config problem, as there are no effects turned on. The front camera works 100%. I will post a sample when I get home.
If I change the "whites" config to Incandescent, it kind of solves the problem. Sometimes, the squares appear, but not for most the time.
I believe this is not a harware issue, unless that whites configuration is made with hardware (highly doubt it). I don't have Swift key, or Yahoo messenger, or any other apps that use the camera (other than Skype, but it was already installed when the camera worked).
Did anybody find a fix to this? It seems it is only a problem on stock 3.2.
Edit: not an exclusive 3.2 stock issue, it appears that custom roms have this problem as well.
I have the same issue after ICS ota upgrade...
Any ideas?
I haven't had the issue since the ICS upgrade. Only tested once or twice, but it is working properly.
What I did to partially fix it was changing the White Balance to "Incandescent".
Hi,
Note 3 on Kitkat.
Having problems with Quick Glance for past month or so. It is very inconsistent. Doesn't work half the time. I have to turn off the Air Gesture feature and back on for it to start working again.. but it just stops randomly after that.
I searched the board and someone suggested its the app Vevo which disturbs QG. The only problem is, I don't have Vevo installed. Never did.
Any other suggestions?
TIA

Same problem
Seems to be a software issue. A bug maybe... I don't use quick glance anyways as it turns the screen on more when i don't need it than when I actually do, hopefully, new updates will fix it.
Hey everyone,
I own a Moto XPE and I've been having some issues with YouTube lately, as well as with Hangouts.
It happens when I turn my phone in landscape mode, suddenly the screen goes black, on and off while the video is still playing. I'm really lost here. Anyone with the same problem?
I have the same issue, it's very annoying. I haven't found any real solution yet, usualy killing youtube app helps for a while.
btw I have eu phone with 6.0.1
I guess it's an issue with all X Style/Pure. When I face this, I realize it's time to clear cache and junk files. I do that using SD Maid and then reboot. This workaround fixes the issue until the cache memory gets filled till the next time.

This is quite famous bug
To avoid pls factory reset your phone (make sure you back-up)
Still not working?? 2nd method
If you have any kind of dirt or dust on your scratch guard (on sensor's only) clean that
Remove your silicon protector and check if it works or no?
Mine worked by just factory resting but some users still had the issue's
Anyone experiencing this?
The bugs that I faced so far:
- waze not responding after switching between apps. Once not responding, I have to close waze completely then open it again but I might need to wait few mins before it would start correctly
- just today the camera suddenly not responding. I have tried to close the apps but it would still shows blank screen. Then I restart the device then it was back to normal
- game rise of civilization would gave blank white screen from time to time after switching apps
- system UI not responding
I was coming from iOS, then change to vivo v9 before I use Samsung.
While the screen and design is a beauty, but even vivo had no bugs like Samsung.
Anyone face similar issues? Anyone know how to overcome this?

Never noticed such bugs on my device. Don't know about the game though because I didn't try it. Are you rooted ? or using some theming apps like Substratum ? You should try booting your phone in safe mode first to see if some app is causing problems. Last time when my Samsung phone's UI stopped working, the culprit was wrong theme applied from Substratum. So, check it first in safe mode, and if it still occurs in safe mode, do a factory reset or flash stock firmware using odin.
I have had none of those bugs.
Never experienced any of those "bugs" either.
Also, No bugs here...

No bugs here. Not even in beta versions using s8 ans s9. I suggest factory reset. Maybe download the latest odin firmware for your carrier and install that. This is the first thread i've seen with people having multiple concerns with One UI bugs.
The only bug I am getting is with the Spotify app. Ever since installing Galaxy Wearables and using Galaxy ear buds the Spotify app is really flakey. It hangs a lot of the time and I have to restart the device to get it to work. Has anyone else had this happen on their S10 plus?
Did not face any of those bugs at all
And did not try this game
No bugs here
I have a lot of apps on my phone, some since honeycomb and no problems either.
My 975U1 has been rock solid from day 1.
No bugs on my phone. But there are plenty roaches in my workplace
No bugs here.
No bugs. This is the least buggy phone I have ever had. No complaints. Coming from pixels and 6t
Not rooted... I will try the safe mode suggestion though...

Spotify works fine for me. On the phone and on Android Auto. Either uninstall and reinstall or go to apps settings and clear cache and data. Settings/Apps/Spotify/storage/ Clear cache then clear data buttons. Restart and try it out again.
