Hello everyone, i have a weird problem, everytime when im watching youtube (app) on my SP device, i get every now and then an annoying blue screen flicker which last for like 5 seconds. The weird thing is, that this problem not happens on every Video i watch, like i said above, every now and then, its like random.
Also, what i realized yesterday, after sometime my Phone freeze for like 3 seconds while watching youtube, also the sound gets weird. I dont know what causes the problems, is it, because im still using the stock youtube app version which comes with the phone, do i have to update the app in order to eleminate those problems?
What i already did: factory reset
What im using: Android 4.3 latest, not rooted and BL locked
Hi. I tried to post in the EuphoriaOS thread, but I don't have enough posts to say something in the development section.
My Nexus 6 is currently using the latest official EuphoriaOS 1.1 and everything has been great up until about a month ago.
This happens sporadically. My phone will start to freeze in the middle of doing anything.
Ex1. I'm listening to Spotify and my music will freeze every 10 seconds or so. Instead of being like a normal skip, it picks up exactly where it left off.
Ex2. I push the power button to wake my phone, but nothing happens for ~3 seconds. Pushing it again will bring up my lockscreen, but my lockscreen is totally unresponsive, so I can't unlock my phone. I can use the power button to turn the screen back off. Then I will wake it again like normal, and It unlocks just fine.
Ex3. My UI in general becomes sluggish and at times completely unresponsive.
Ex4. My phone will just restart randomly. It has done it numerous times each in different applications. I haven't been able to pinpoint a cause.
I enjoy using Euphoria and do not want to update to any Marshmallow ROMs because I have everything the way I like it. My battery is great and Marshmallow currently doesn't have Xposed.
I haven't really installed anything new since before these issues started. They just happened out of the blue.
This stuff happens maybe every couple days at totally random times.
Could anyone help me in trying to fix the issues I'm having?
.... All I was doing was watching a YouTube video and the phone completely froze. Only way out of it was to press and hold the power button to force it to restart.
Even though your scenario is unfortunate I’m actually quite happy to hear that I’m not the only one who is experiencing crashing with this phone that tells me that it’s a manufacturer problem and hopefully more users will report on it thank you so much for reporting your issue with this phone.
Was this your first crash?
If so, I unfortunately believe that you have many more to come. The only good thing is when it crashes it doesn’t happen that often but for a brand-new phone it should be happening at all
Yes it was my first crash. I am just hoping firmwares will get better and better over time. I am Huawei fan. Had Mate 8, 9 and now 10.
Was just thinking, I was using a modded YouTube app. Surely if that would crash it would not bring the entire phone to a standstill?

I am using a modded You Tube app as well. BUT, my latest crash happened when I tried to unlock my phone.
Phone was frozen, and then was greeted by the Huawei boot screen.
this phone facing few hiccups every now and then,
oftenly happen when i lock the screen with games still running,
when i try to unlock it later, it freeze for seconds, but managed to open after
sometimes games got killed and i need to force close it,
i think this is due to Oreo implementation as well,
huawei might still learn to take a grasp on EMUI 8,
hopefully it will get better
the same problem i have , non pro , non chinies rom and phone
I've had one crash. Was just trying to go to recents....
I've had no crashes whatsoever. I am running the Asian firmware.
I have Asians firmware too. Rather disturbing cause it is not my dd yet. That is, I'm not using much...

Same here. Phone dies secretly. Only holding the power button puts it on, and you're greeted by huawei boot screen. I could lock phone, go to unlock 3 seconds later and its dead. Huawei boot screen greets me. Very random. 115 software on the pro version only. The non pro never did this
Anyone updated? Any more crashing? What firmware did you experience the crash? At xT29c, no more crashes for you since 118 update? Saw your thread

I have the non pro version. Since the update, I have not had the random crashing happen. But hard to say if its been fixed since the issue was sporadic to begin with. If it happens, I will report it. So far so good.

Good. Thanks for the update
If you are watching you tube and it crashes it may be because you have had a message on FB messenger. This has been causing occasional crashes. Turn of your chat heads in FB messenger. Problem solved!!!
There seem to be a lot of bugs on BLA-L29 Build 127 causing crashes. So if anyone is running that, might be best to downgrade to 126 or wait for a new version.

I'm getting constant crashes in YouTube. I don't even have messenger installed, so we can rule that out.

i'm on 115 (c782)
Dec. 11th 2017 update.
Got another crash. First one since updated to FW Chinese 8.0.0.120 (SP2C00).
The crash happened after I tried playing a .RM video file in VLC media player. Admittedly, .RM files are absolute garbage file type. So, I credit that to the crash. But will report on anymore that may happen.
im on mate 10 lite and everything was smooth on emui 5.1 but when I updated it to 8.0 same thing happened it hangs and restarts countless times
To all Nokia 8 users, have you ever had any issues that sometimes your Nokia 8 starts to freeze seconds and then restart by itself? It doesn't happen once but multiple times. It happens sometimes when you are trying to do something like playing game or opening Google play app. However, since booting to OS and if you leave it be until like many hours later, it won't go sudden restart. Only when you do activities, will it suddenly restart.
Why is this happening? The ROM and app are the same as it be and didn't happen long ago. It only happens like two days ago.
I hope users of Nokia 8 experts have solution to this issue. Thank you
EDITED: I found out the real cause. Although this is hypothesis, it seems GOOGLE PLAY SERVICES is the culprit. I noticed it just force closes and then whenever I launched any apps that have something to do with play services, it just goes into bootloop.
Can anyone confirm this?

I don't have this problem but you can try to clear the cache and data of play services in application setting.

Did that. Didn't work. Only by freezing this Google play services, does the Bootloop stop happening. The consequences are the any app that uses Google play services like YouTube will not run well.
Also, I tried installing Gapps using TWRP flashing via zip. But that doesn't solve the problem. Why.....
I've came from a Nexus 5x and a Nexus 6p and the word bootloop gives me goosebumps
Does your phone reboot when you open the stock camera ?

No. Never open Stock camera. Just any apps that have something to do with google play services.
Do you use sd card? because i have the same problem here
I got not only the same issue but also the problem with sounds after update to Pie. And i realize when i put my phone in the charger, issues stop; when i put it out issues happen again and again...

I got the same problem. When my phone's battery drops to 60% or lower it restarts whenever I spend some time surfing the net or opening up the stock camera, with the addition of removing my fingerprint scan every time it restarts that way. However, these issues immediately stop when I plug my phone to its charger. I thought the security update fixed these but sadly it didn't.
I have the exact same issue.
I got my Nokia 8 (ta-1012) one month ago and it occurred about 10 times.
It occurs frequently when I'm using the UI too much, for example, lower volume and hiring it too fast, touching many UI elements and swapping quickly between apps etc..
It freezes for like 10seconds and it restarts quickly, that is, just the UI.
I'm on Oreo BTW. Can anyone confirm having that issue on nougat ?
This happens with me..on camera and games

I solved my problem, i brought my phone to Nokia care center and they replaced my battery with the new one. Thats battery problem, thats all.
May I ask what was the cost of battery?
I just downgraded to Nougat 7.1.1 and for now, the issue of restarting is gone !
Please confirm that if someone is on Nougat.
Even i have the same problem for my nokia 8. Is there any solution to rectify it.

I was on Pie, from where I downgraded to Oreo the problem persisted, then I downgraded to Nougat and the issue is the same, I play a game or video it starts to stutter, even if the video is streaming online or downloaded and being played from memory/rom. I initially thought it was software issue but it seems that I was wrong, I wasted too many hours and bandwidth just downgrading. Now the issue is that I have voided my warranty by unlocking the bootloader, what are my options? as someone said they have gotten the battery replaced. How much does it costs? I am 100% convinced that its battery related issue as when I plug my phone in the charger then all goes fine.
Using Nokia 8 (TA-1004)
My phone started having the same trouble a couple of months ago, it all started with the camera app. Now things are so bad that as sOon as I enter security pin and the home screen appears, the phone restaerts...and it keeps happening until I plug in the charger. This happens even when the battery is 95%. Can't even touch it!!!
I was so excited to get this phone, although everyone told me not to... but I was in love with it... and "Grief is the Price we pay for Love", right?
How could the battery get so weak with average use in just 9-10 months? And how could so many users start experiencing the same problem all at once?
Any help shall be appreciated!
To be sure about your battery , First put your mobile on safe mode for 7 days and notice if restart will happen again or not? also notice battey consumption and charging rapidly mode.-
I was having same problem for last few months , when I put my nokia 8 on safe mode (Restart while pressing down volume button) ,the Restarting problem did not happen even once for 7 days, So I discovered that it is software problem that cause system to hang and restart and consume battery.. Then I discover that " many months ago on android Oreo" I was making changes in Devoloper mode To stop and prevent application from running in background , This was nice on oreo but on Android Pie it cause conflect and system hang with some application that refuse to stop causing system restart.. All problem had gone after allowing application to work again in background normally .. Till now for about one month no single restart >> Also , Rapidly charging mode working nice but unfournatly battery consumption Still high.
I have the same problem with Nokia 8 . Sudden restart and issue with sound at times. Anyone knows the reason, and the fix for it would be appreciated

i have the same problem and after having knowledege about it,i came to a point that this is a software issue as it contains bugs. .
I have the same problem too .
I noticed it a couple of months ago but It could've start long before and I just didn't noticed it.
With Oreo I'm quite sure it never happened.
Reboots randomly once a day (more or less) it happened just 10 min. ago,the phone was on the desk close to me so I had the opportunity to observe it "live"...it was in standby and no app was apparently running .
Quite strange anyway,I'm pretty sure it's a software issue;the battery seems still in health (no unmotivated drain).
Nothing dramatically serious anyway,just strange...there must be a way to fix it...

Following your advice,I just tried changing at the voice" app/backgroud processes" in Developer mode from "standard" to " allow max 4 processes";I don't know what's intended for "standard" value but something should change...let's see and x fingers
