Hello Guys
Let's share the bugs that everyone experiencing with the new stock JOP40C Android 4.2 for Galaxy Nexus
I'll go first
I have a problem when in a call the phone keeps doing a weird vibration and once i done the call i find the phone on the homescreen and have to go to the notifications menu to hang up
the other issue is randomly force close for the launcher and some apps
the camera is very laggy when rotating from landscape to portrait
anybody experiencing those issues ?
Ok guys anybody experiencing random reboot on the stock android 4.2 Galaxy Nexus
You can star this for Google to fix : http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39912
I am not. Also, and unrelated, I'd like to point out the redundancy of your title. Android 4.2 issues on, say android 4.0.4 would be revolutionary, but as you've directed this... Anyways, did you update ota, or flash the image manually? I've read of many issues from the image flashes prior to ota, that I haven't experienced at all since my ota on my drive home.
In stock browser in full screen mode i'm having a weird effect on loading bar on top, don't know if thats supposed to be like that or not.. just strange and sometimes the adress bar becomes bugged strange behavour
Yeah you might wanna reword that title...
Anyway, this update SUCKS!!!!!!! I was trying to be positive about it... Focusing on the cool new stuff... But then that shifted to at least neutral with the crappy changes.... But now this just sucks!!!!!!!!! I just got my first launcher FC EVER!!!! On my galaxy nexus.
No root, never flashed, been stock all the way on this phone just like any regular user. I used to root on my tmobile g2 but decided to keep my gnex all stock.
So what he hell!?!?! Force closing stock launcher!?!?!? Are you freaking kidding me?!? This update is turning into a total joke, its not funny google! Your pulling anAPPLE move on your most loyal customers(nexus customers!)
EDIT: this is a rant.. I was pissed at how badly 4.2 has screwed my phone up. But no i didnt mean the part about being as bad as apple..
I do think 4.2 sucks though. Especially compared to 4.1.2, in my experience they seemed to have sacrificed new features and "style" over stability with 4.2

Drama queen, much?

"the camera is very laggy when rotating from landscape to portrait" --> Yes, this is extremely annoying.
And also I find that when the camera shot in landscape mode, about 10% of the upper and lower part of the viewfinder are cropped (i.e. the things you actually shot are more than what you saw in the camera app)
1). I don't have problem with phone call
2). Yes, launcher FCed! But only happened once after first reboot after flashing factory image.

No, just needed to rant
Plus the fc had just happened like 5min before i posted that. It was weird... I was browsing here on chrome, then pressed the home button and tried opening the launcher, and it got stuck loading for like 10sec... Then fc'd. Soo i tried again and it got stuck again and fc'd. Third time it finally worked.
I expect these things on rooted devices or custom launchers... But on stock its just sad, especially when it's never happened before the ota.
Mines running very stable.

Yep
Flickering in Notification Bar
I have observed one strange thing on takju 4.2, If the notification window in already pulled down and and suddenly some new notification comes(like sms, email etc), all the notifcations start flickering wildly till I clear them all.
I am on stock no rooting nothing.
GNEX 4.2 default browser
Hi
Really hope someone can answer this for me, I've got a stock GNEX just got 4.2 by deleting my Google Services Framework cache and hitting update. Everything seems to be ok, but I still have the stock (blue icon) browser, I thought the default browser is chrome on 4.2. Also I don't seem to be able delete it, no biggie just annoying to have an app that I'm never going to use.
Anyway to remove it manually without rooting etc..
Many Thanks in advance to anyone that can answer this
Only issue I've noticed so far is the camera rotation is indeed very slow on my phone too.
Now, in 4.2, every notification makes my phone vibrate. This doesn't happen with earliers versions. I don't know if it is a "new feature", but I don't like it.

According to Google : Chrome is not part of the AOSP but for the new devices such as Nexus 4,7,10 it's the default browser but old devices like Galaxy Nexus i guess for now the default browser will be the Android Browser , who knows maybe with next major release of Android that will change
As for how to delete the default browser you need root privilege to delete the app apk from the system apps using something like Root Explorer
I had three soft reboots already since yesterday (at least that I noticed, maybe more while I wasn't looking). This is a clean install (flash_all.sh from the factory image).
To hell with it, I'm going back to my beloved CM10.
I am using my Note 8 N5100 since last two months. I mostly use Chrome as my default Internet Browser.
Recently I have updated the chrome app (The update brings a nice feature: full screen navigation). Since then I am having this peculiar problem.
1. A part of the web-page usually getting hidden under the navigation bar. If there is any link in that area, it is nearly impossible to click on that as it is hidden.
2. Tapping exactly on the link is not working always. I have to tap a little lower to select the exact target link. Surprisingly this problem does not exist if I zoom the page and tap on the desired link.
This problem is only with chrome browser. The stock android browser/dolphin/UC works fine.
This is my first week with my new brown note 8.0 and I noticed the same issue. In just went back to stock browser and will wait for next up date for chrome and hope it fixes it.
Same issue as well.

Seems to be fixed in the latest Chrome Beta.

I have the same issue.
I think your problems 1 and 2 are the same problem.
The link you touched is in the correct place, but the page displays a little bit higher.

This is a known issue and they are working on it.
I'm also having this issue, hopefully it'll get fixed soon
Here's a workaround using Xposed Framework:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43569866&postcount=17
Actually, just download the Chrome BETA which was refreshed this past Thursday. It fixes the issues you describe and works extremely well on my Note 8..
I've been using this app for over a year now and haven't experienced any issues. Recently the developer updated the app and I think I might be running into some BIG issues and wondering if anyone else is either running it just fine or having some of the same issues as I.
Currently I'm using Ditto note 3 ROM, once I install the delayed lock app and reboot I am no longer able to receive any type of data signal and I'm unable to send or receive any MMS. Once I uninstall the app I'm back up again.
I've also done some testing on Mean Rom and got the same results, if I install the app, I can't MMS.. removing it I am allowed to again.
I wonder if it's the 4.3 roms that are having the issues or if its the new version of the app that is having the issue. OR COULD IT REALLY BE MY PHONE? somehow I doubt its my phone since uninstalling the app gives me all the ability of my phone again.
The developer hasn't replied to my support ticket yet.. who knows if he will.. figured I'd reach out to the xda community and see what kind of feed back I can get.
Thanks in advance!
The app developer clearly states in his description that this device may not work properly...and also states that android 4.3 will not work with his software...
It sounds like the time to search an alternative method to delay your lock...
Have you searched the xposed module archives for a compatible method ???
It's highly likely that xposed will have a modification capable of this ...
I'll search as well...and post here if I find a solid solution...g

So, I've been having issues for a while when typing in whatsapp. When I first start typing everything is ok. But after a while, the keyboard becomes progressively laggier and reaches the point in which it is unusable because it doesn't register the letters correctly, it's like it can't keep up and only registers a few letters of the words or overwrites letters typed before. Deleting takes long too. Everything just stops working actually and I'm forced to go type somewhere else and come back and paste it in whatsapp.
Has anyone had this? I'm using the stock keyboard but have tried changing to google keyboard when I'm starting to see the lag and that keyboard just continues with the lag process. Any ideas?
Thanks!

I'm having input lag also. But not as worse as yours, but whatsapp just can't keep up with my speed of typing, while in Hangouts, I do not have such problems. It's just getting sluggish with typing.....Don't know the solution as neither whatsapp and swiftkey are responding to my mails....With another keyboard I do not have this problem
Which rom version are you using?
No lag here with official h.
Try using seeder app... it may solve this proble.

I got the same problem for my Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo... I touch a letter and lags before actually typing it.
In the default messaging app of the phone I don't have this issue...
Well sry, got no solution atm. Just complaining !!
Does anyone have issue with S Note closes after you open a new template? The app will open but when I click on the "+" sign it will immediately closed. I have been reading there has been similar issue with the Note 2 & 3 and many resolution suggested didn't seem to work on the Note 4. Phone is rooted and problem did not occur before this. I've tried clear cached, disable/enable the app, widget trick someone suggested, language update trick, and still no go. Any suggestions? Thanks!
Mine does it too. I have no idea why.

Just found the fix! So I change my build prop back to 4.4.4 (from the hd youtube mod) and it works again! I saw this from the other thread suggestion to fix Smart Remote (mine had the same issue too)
It seems the youtube hd mod breaks the smart remote and the S Note.
Thanks to pongoface from this thread :good:

yup! It's not worth breaking several apps/features on your phone just to make youtube app allow you to set 1440 and higher resolutions. they will probably update the youtube app soon enough and these workarounds won't be necessary.
