Very long pause while saving in Lecturenotes - Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Themes and Apps

Hello, I am trying out the app. Whenever "Save changed page Writing notebook files" happens, it takes a long long pause (about 8-10 seconds). To check if it is due to lots of apps running at the same time, I closed all the possible apps. Then, I launched Lecturenotes, created a new notebook, and imported an image. Same long pause in saving. Do you have the same problem?

Yep it's normal, not a problem. While it is updating the app is writing to a handful of files. Depending on the complexity of your notebook the save time will get longer and longer if you have edits on multiple pages. Each page is saved as a separate PNG file and some text and XML files get updated as you make changes to the notebook as well.

But I only have one page and an imported image in my notebook. Is it still normal to take 8-10 seconds to save? This is a hugh turn off.

Yeah its an annoyance. Try asking here:

Galaxy Tab Pro(10.1) Issues

Hello All,
I am starting this thread for known issues with the Galaxy Tab Pro 10.1
So far I have noticed the following issues:
1. If you enable Google Search ans S-Voice and hold the tablet in your hand while putting a little pressure on the back of the tablet as if you were trying to bend it, does it launch either of the above mentioned applications? Mine does.
2. I also have a lot of apps exiting at random to the Home Screen.
3. Folders on the Home screen stop working at random. I have to press a few times to get them to work and then it only works sometimes.
4. Dolphin browser exits to the Home screen if i press and hold on any part of the webpage that does not trigger an article link. Sometimes it lunches Google search and/or S-Voice.
I am wondering if mine is defective or has a corrupt image. I have tried to reset it and reinstall my apps with the same result.
Thank you for you responses and I am looking forward to them.

I'm not experiencing the issues you described in 1-3. I just installed Dolphin and checked a couple pages, pressing on non-link areas as you described, and it didn't exit to the Home screen or launch the other apps.
I did find an issue in the My Files app the other day: If you rename a file within My Files, attaching that file to an email doesn't work because the renamed file doesn't appear in the list. I've tried with Gmail and the built-in email client, but neither could see the newly renamed file. Clearing the recent apps didn't help; I had to reboot the device and then I was able to attach the renamed file to an email.

Hello Jaegorith,
Regarding issues 1-3
1. Hold the tablet using both your hands, one on each side, you thumbs on the white part of the bezel and your eight remaining fingers, four each hand, on the back of the tablet while pressing with all your fingers and not really applying a lot of pressure but enough.
2. With me it is happening however I might be brushing the home button or the return key without noticing. I tried to pay attention but I do not notice me doing that however it could also be a bug with Kit Kat. I have not read anything on other forums that mentioned anything like it.
3. When I first created them them they were working fine however they started misbehaving after a little while.
4. If hold your thumb for 2 seconds on the screen, does Dolphin collapse to the Home screen?
5. I will look into our issue and try to duplicate the problem.
6. I typed this up on the tablet and while typing on the Samsung keyboard, Dolphin crashed to the Home screen severe times. I noticed that while pressing the space bar, being that it is close to the Home Button, it colapses. I am starting to think that my Home Button is reacting to my touches even though I am not engaging it directly.
Thanks for your reply.

Do you have to press your Home Button to trigger the action, like on the Galaxy s 4, or do you just touch it?
After calling Samsung tech support I found out that the home button should push in and mine does not. This is the way I received the tablet I already filled out an RMA request through Newegg. Sorry for the confusion.
Jaegorith, I have not yet tried to duplicate the issue you wrote about, however when I receive my replacement tablet tomorrow I will try it and let you know.

xda VERY slow loading

I've noticed xda takes a long time to open and change pages in my browser (Chrome). It frequently times out and gives me an error message. Sometimes I can push it to finish opening by pressing F5 (reload). Other times I have to close it and open again. This happens FREQUENTLY. I have also noticed several video ads that run automatically in multiple windows. I can pause one of them at a time by clicking on it, but of course, this doesn't help with the slow loading problem.
Is there any way to opt out of these videos (one seems to show women in sportswear making sushi) or just shut them off? I suspect that this is the problem.
Its been happening to me too, I just came to this thread to report this. I have an adblock so not sure about the ad but Its talking way longer time to load and sometimes i get error that unable to reach website.
I am using safari on mac.
Thanks

Mate, consider the fact XDA is currently frequented from thousands and thousands people. This could mean - in some cases - their servers could be sometimes overloaded, producing the annoyances you experienced.
This was caused by a bad DNS server - it is all fixed up now so your speed should be fine. Closing this thread, for any issues in the future please visit the XDA issues thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987254

[Q] Question on deleting shortcuts or apps from home page

I did some work on one of the 2 non rooted units that I have and installed the Llama options for "sleep mode" where the unit boots to XBMC when turned on, goes to sleep after 20 minutes and if yo hit the home button it still takes you back to the FTV home page but with no activity for 15 seconds it goes to sleep again. If you hit the OK button it wakes back up in XBMC. What a great setup for a non rooted unit. Kudos to the Kodi.wikki site for the information and way to do it.
Long story short, I took my second unit and did a factory restore on it to set it up the same way. All went well, but I notice that now up at the top of the home page where the recently view items are, all of the original shortcuts are gone...Netflix, Youtube, Classic TV...... 14 or so of them in all and in thier palce now are two or three info videos including the original one you have to sit through to even get the unit working and two more new ones as well as a shortcut to Prime TV.
My question is.....is ther anyway to delete these videos and get them off my unit. They simply taKe up space and after having to watch that first one at least a dozen time now I don't even want to see a shortcut to it!!
Someone please say there's an easy way to delete them and tell me how.....
Thanks!
PS... I noticed other several subtle changes in the layout even though my firmware didn't change. I can't explain how it happened, but another change is when you go to settings, applications and manage all applications. The window with all of the installed aps used to open up to the right of the main app screen.....now it opens to the left of the main screen. Again, no big deal, but something did change today after resetting the unit and I just set it up for the first time several days ago....it's now different. I just want to eliminate those instructional video shortcuts though!

M8 apps and bugs (Stock)

So, this one I put in General section on purpose, rather than the Troubleshooting and Q&A section, cause main purpose is to disguise about the bugs and things that are simply wrong.... Mainly probably Android issues rather than HTC, but their team has big impact on those...
I'm gonna start by the fact that I got the M8 just a couple days ago, and it's an upgrade from my previous M7 (Stock 4.3, TWRP Unlocked & rooted).
The first thing that I did after turning it on was, Wifi -> Software updates -> and got 3 OTAs in a row, to get me to 5.0.1... After that, I started to "migrate" the phone; Loging in G-acc, downloading apps from PlayStore.. and bump, here's the issue number 1:
- PlayStore keeps saying "Connection lost. Retry" or giving an error 923 on downloading apps, like every few minutes or so. This only happens when using 3G or 4G connection. Writing reviews is impossible, cause at the time I actually write something, and press Apply, the message is lost, and "Try again" notification appears instead... Never happened before on M7, so I checked with my carrier and we've done all the testing - It's for sure something with the phone, not the signal. carrier or tower-switching....
Next thing was, youtube has the same issues: Every few minutes (even less), a "Retry" button appears, and has to be pressed 2 or 3 times to load search results, videos, etc... Never breaks the connection during video play though. But, still, playing playlist is impossible, due to error being in between every video change...
Issue number 3: Gallery keeps getting everything that's on the phone. This includes Messenger (Facebook) app's emoticons, which are shown one-by-one in it's own albums, resulting in having over hundred albums in a gallery, - I know this can be hidden, but hiding over 100 folders is not that easy either...). I checked data on my M7 - same folders, same files of messenger, but Gallery never showed them at all.
It also shows all of the pictures I've ever shared with a particular person, since Messenger downloads those pictures in a folder... What have they done with the Gallery app?!? Is there anyway to downgrade to some older version...?
Issue number 4: Cloud gallery notification pops-up every single time the Gallery is opened. Even though I hit "No thanks" button, the next time the app is opened, notification saying "Gallery just got better with cloud service" pops-up. Any way of disabling this notification?!??? I guess that mentioning the uselessness of Zoe app due to not having Save button is irrelevant, right...? This Cloud things seems to mess up the heads of the HTC Dev team, ha?
Issue number 5: Power saver notification can't be hidden from the Lock screen; My life with M7 was 90% of the time with "Power saver" option turned on (All except for the data cut-off option selected). I always had the notification in the upper bar of the screen, but never on the Lock screen itself, in the middle of the screen. Now, on M8 this is visible. Along with the big "X" symbol that turns it off. I swear I've gone through all of the settings, but nowhere found any option to hide it.
Issue number 6: Google drive downloads low-res videos instead of originals! So, I keep a lot of my FullHD ([email protected]) of the GoPro on my Drive. Now, when I wanted to see those videos on my phone, I hit the Download button, and look what I got: 720p (1280x720) videos @ 25fps. Converted MP4 files. Without any notification, any option set, nothing... And I've downloaded the same files on M7 non-converted, so that I could edit them and upload them on social networks etc... Why is this the case, and why is this behaviour nowhere even documented? At least I haven't found it...?
Resolved issues:
- SD Card write error; It's a pain in the ass what they did. More than that, its the pain in the ass that in 5.0.1. where this was repaired (via Documents app approval), the app crashed when selecting SD card -> due to the card not having any name set (after format). It would be nice if this was documented somewhere too...
- Whole device freezes for around 10 secs whenever message is sent in Facebook Messenger app: This is resolved by turning off "In-App sounds" option in the app's settings. Still have no idea why this would happen, and why only on M8, (Nexus 5 and 6 don't have these issues running same system and app version...), so can't say who to blame, but at least it can be bypassed...
Facts (rather than issues): About M8 itself... Well, the camera is far from what they promised, and the battery is nowhere near the capacity they claim it to be. While the screen is pretty much the same as it was on the M7, I'm really starting to wonder what is the big change in the model at all (apart from louder speakers, very dumb headphones jack reposition, and gladly SD card support back in game...).
Now for the worst of it all: The playstore review content; HTC Development team seems to simply delete all reviews that are not saying what they'd like to hear. Either 1 star, 2 star, and comments that points to some issues - the review gets deleted within couple hours. I've been mentioning bugs on 3 apps, like 4 times so far, and all my reviews were gone... While they are kept on many other apps. I mean, is this the way to treat customers?!?
What are your thoughts? What are the bugs you found and I haven't yet...? I really want to know as much as I can, because I'm starting to regret for my choice....

Question Slowing Video Response

Excuse me for this being quite long. I am monitoring a rifle scope video through WiFi to my S22. When I first load the app for the scope, movement in the scope appears after about one second on my phone. However, if I wait for several minutes after starting the app, movement in the scope doesn't appear on the phone for 3 to 8 seconds. If I exit the app and then reload it, I get the exact same result - quick response at first and then after a few minutes, delayed response.
I get the exact same results on a Samsung tablet. Bear with me now. If I have the app running for a while on my S22 and it is in the slow response stage and I start the app on my tablet, response on the table is initially quick but after a few minutes slows down. With the s22 and table sitting side beside, the delays will not be the same on both devices. ie. the phone image might be delayed by 3 seconds and the tablet by 5 seconds or vice versa. Also, the delay times are not constant from one scope movement to the next and they are not in sync on the phone/tablet.
Fortunately or unfortunately, this issue DOES NOT occur on an Iphone - the delay always stays about 1 second. I have tried deleting apps, resetting my phone, etc. to no avail.
If anyone can help resolve this issue, I will be so very grateful.
