[Q] My Magazine Not Responding All the time - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Hey everyone,
I don't even use My Magazine but it stops responding all the time. Like 3 or 4 times a day. And everything freezes for a few seconds every time it does.
Anyone else hear of this / know of a solution? A friend told me it's a known issue with using the Nova launcher, but I was just searching for this known issue and I can't find a thread about it anywhere.

yes me too I thought it happened after I tried to unintelligible it and other bloat with titanium nd things started force closing so I restored them....wither way though same happens to me

well at least i'm not alone haha. i haven't done anything to try to disable or hide it. i'm not even rooted or anything yet. i just haven't used it since the day i got the phone 2 weeks ago and yet since the past 3 or 4 days it's been popping up not responding at random.

i just started suffering from this problem and i can't fix it. My Magazine freezes and crashes when i'm not even using it and it does this very often. This makes the phone lock up for a couple seconds. Very annoying.

Ditto, I believe it's happening to all note 3s, I remember reading about this same issue weeks ago when I first got my phone

Go to setting - General - Application manager - all - find my magazine - clear data and cache - force stop - restart your phone. This is how I fixed it. I hope it helps you.
Ps: this fixed the crashing issue but it's still very laggy at first start then is good.

Blaster - did what you mentioned, but next day came back! I hope they do an update soon to fix this! It sucks they force this app on us and it is not stable.

Screen not timing out

So I noticed this a few days ago. I have the screen set to time out after 30 seconds. It will work for a while and then it will no longer time out. If i reboot the phone everything goes back to working order. Ive tried this with and without smart stay on and got the same results. I do not have any applications installed that would cause the screen not to time out, plus it works from time to time. Any ideas as to why it may be doing this?
This has been happening to me lately too... Don't really know what could it be.

Yes I'd also like to know as it is a bit annoying and killing my battery if I dont catch it!
This used to happen to me too. I even returned phone and it started happening again. This seems to be a bug. I flashed a new rom and it never happened again

Can't bring up open apps from home button

Have a weird bug that comes and goes and can't figure out why or how to fix it. Long pressing home should bring up all open apps and let you get to task manager. Most the times it works, but every once in awhile it will completely stop working. A reset fixes it or if i just wait awhile it will come back.
Anyone else get this or know of a fix? Home button still works, just not the long press

It's always worked for me.
Always works for me, too. Was just using it last night before bedtime.
In my 2 weeks of my note2 this just happened to me last night. I have no idea why and it scared the hell out of me. I just rebooted and it hasn't reappeared. Don't really know what to tell ya =(
Im running jedi 3.1 rom w perseus kernel

Have you done a restart? If that doesn't fix it so a factory reset.

Restarting my phone fixes it, but its just annoying to do it to fix it. It shouldn't do it in the first place. Also it will come back and start working on its own too. Most of 90% of the time it works though

*bump* its been awhile, curious if anyone else has been getting this or has a fix other than restarting. I have to restart my phone every other day because sometimes apps like xda won't open and I can't close them in the background.

Does your s4 randomly reboot?

My gf got an s4 and it has randomly turned off and rebooted. She exchanged the phone once already for other issues but she says both phones were rebooting like this. She said it happens even with no apps from store installed. I thought it would be some kind of incompatible app causing an issue but maybe not. I have this phone and I am not experiencing this problem. Anybody gone through this?

Only time mine did was when i was tethering and charging, not to mention it was approx 85+ degrees. I forgot to put my icepack on it but other than that no i have not had any reboot issues. If you can easily re-create the issue, take it to a Corporate store and show them.
Has happen once with mine while i was on instagram for a bit

Anybody have WatchOn randomly force closing?

Like the title says, anybody having issues with Samsung's WatchOn randomly force closing?
I tried factory resetting but while setting up the device the phone would seemingly freeze for a couple seconds then WatchOn would FC. While browsing My Magazine, WatchOn would FC randomly while trying to pull up different articles. I wonder if my device is defective or not..
No the friggin notification gets on my nerves. Tried to disable but no joy.

Same here, all day today.
Same here. After I opened it and configured it (WatchOn), it went away.

Haha, that did the trick. I just opened it up, went through the setup and haven't had a FC yet. Crossing fingers. Thanks bud.
I thought I was going to have to do another exchange because of this issue. Ended up just turning WatchOn off in the application manager since I'm not using it anyway. Haven't had a fc since.

Freezing

Not sure what was happening as it hasn't done it again. I was replying to post at G+ and the Note would appear to freeze, one time it was probably close to 15 seconds. During this time the Return & Menu buttons would not light. Didn't try Home didn't want to loose the post. Reminds me of ho.w my Nexus 7 2014 acted when I bought it. Finally after several updates it was fixed & the wife doesn't complain so I'll assume its fixed.
Is this a known issue or just something strange happening at the time?
