What does hal_process_report_ind: Bad item quality: 11 mean? [duplicate]

I get this error in LogCat while doing dev work. Sounds like a hardware malfunction. Is it? What's it in relation to? I tried searching but found only people talking about cameras. It's on a Motorola Razr M. My device acts quirky a lot (feedback delays often when unlocking and freezing temporarily while playing games) and I wonder if this has something to do with it. Thanks!

I seem to be getting no network location where I am currently at, and this message popped up in my log so suspecting this is part of my problem:

12-16 09:07:19.849 594 607 E qcom_sensors_hal: hal_process_report_ind: Bad item quality: 11
This sequence pops ups twice while opening Maps, so I am pretty sure the quality message pertains to the location somehow, likely throwing the network location away.

It seems that is a bug related with the location:
http://www.reddit.com/r/Nexus5/comments/20g0vj/150_linessec_qcom_sensors_hal_logcat_spam_causing/
and it seems that this is only triggered if you have have chosen not to enable location reporting.
And once it happens it only stops after rebooting the device.

You're right, it is to do with sensors. Unfortunately, I can't pinpoint the exact problem, but it is most likely a data accuracy issue with your accelerometer.
Android is a very complex operating system, and it is highly unlikely that every piece of native code functions exactly as intended. I wouldn't worry about this error.
Moreover, it is almost definitely not related to your phone freezing and having feedback delays. That sounds more like an issue of running low on RAM and processing power, while having too many background apps open. Try uninstalling the apps you don't use.

Try to clear data for Google Play Service.
Go to Settings > Apps > Google Play service > Manage space > Clear all data.
On my device that stopped these messages for a while (and so far, even when they reappeared they're much less frequent).

Is my "hal_process_report_ind: Bad item quality: 11" something to worry about?

Jelly Bean starts googlequicksearchbox when pressing back button

I am developing an application and on Motorola XOOM with Android 4.1 it starts Google Search activity when I am pressing back button on video player activity in my application. No intents for Google search have been sent from this application. Also it works properly on previous android versions even ICS devices. Here is the logs

The only thing that can cause this error is a Timer that i use in my application in the game Intent, i tried to set up a handler but i saw a lot of crash in my ACRA log.
This is the content of my intent, i hope that someone should help me :)
startB.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View view) {
startB.setEnabled(false);
partiColTempo(tempox);
}
});
}

this.runOnUiThread(new Runnable(){
//#Override
public void run() {
tempo.setText(text);
if (text.equals("Finished")){
eseguiSuono();
assegnaPunti();
startB.setEnabled(true);
//elapsed=0;
tempo.setText("Waiting");
}
}});
}
private void partiColTempo(int tempox) {
TIMEOUT=tempox*1000;
Log.w("tempo timer", ""+tempox);
elapsed=INTERVAL;
TimerTask task=new TimerTask(){
#Override
public void run() {
elapsed+=INTERVAL;
if(elapsed>TIMEOUT){
this.cancel();
displayText("Finished");
return;
}
//if(some other conditions)
// this.cancel();
displayText(getString(R.string.tempo_rim)+" " + (TIMEOUT-elapsed) / 1000);
}
};
Timer timer = new Timer();
timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(task, INTERVAL, INTERVAL);
Is the problem there? Because i can't find other place when i call asynctask.

You are clearly doing something with UI (i.e. View-derived objects) from AsyncTask.doInBackground(). That's not allowed, only the UI thread can touch UI objects.
If you need to update UI from your background/AsyncTask as it's running, you must call publishProgress() which will cause onProgressUpdate to run on the UI thread. You can also implement onPostExecute() which will also run on the UI thread once the background thread has finished.

This scenario generally occurs when AsyncTask thread is working in the
background but in the meanwhile, the UI activity class is destroy. So
after completion of the AsyncTask when we try to perform some UI task,
the above Exception will thrown.

Strange Behavior of Android VideoView - "Can't Play Video"

In my application,showing video from sdcard folder or new taken video from Video intent in a VideoView in different Activity by passing file path of the video selected.
Now the problem is,
I have tested this app in my 2 devices LG Optimus Black and LG Optimus Me and it works like charm not problem no force close.
Now when i test this app in Samsung Fascinate 2.1 the video view shows the message "Can't Play Video" no matter i select existing video or take new one.
Remember the app is working fine with the above 2 devices.
In the ShowVideo activity i have button to upload the video, when i got the message "Can't Play Video" i been able to take video from the same path and upload it and can check that video at server side but video view didn't played that video.
So, the Video Path of the SDCard is not the problem thats for sure.
also the Video are of .3gp or .mp4 format only so the format is also supported by android
.
My Questions Are :
1)When the message "Can't Play Video" occurs?
2)What are the Solution for that?
and 3) What could be possible mistakes in my application?
here is the logcat output while i got that message but don't see any error/exception in that.

If you find anything not described well please comment below.
Additional details (moved from comments):
They are merely of 1 minutes and the last one I tested and failed on Samsung that was of only 20 seconds. and sizes are mostly in MB not more than 20 MB right now.
The video is taken from the same device and immediately after taking that video I try to show in my activity same way other already stored video are also fine...actually after uploading that video I can see that video and can download also

1)When the message "Can't Play Video" occurs?
Android usually gives out this message, when it is not able to play the media content. The reasons for this to happen can be anything like
Unsupported file format
Unsupported codecs
Erroneous content
to mention a few.
2)What are the Solution for that?
Unless you have your own Media Framework in your app, there is no solution from the application level
3) What could be possible mistakes in my application?
Very unlikely the mistake is in your application. If you read the logs, you will see that the error seems to originate from the DataSource of opencore (Which version of android are you running anyway? It is still using Opencore instead of StageFright). It is recognizing it as a large file (> 2GB) and hence giving out the error "E/OsclDirectFileIO( 2182): [LargeFileSupport] OsclDirectFileIO::OpenFileOrSharedFd Error = -1"
The other thing to note is certain phones have better multimedia capability than the other phones, since OEM's can themselves improve the multimedia capability. So there is no written guarantee that all files can be played on all devices, even though it conforms to the supported formats, codecs mentioned by Android.

Its all about format problem, Some phone record the video in mp4 format and some in 3gp format, but in almost all phones the default mediaplayer support 3gp format. So the solution is you need to convert it into 3gp at the time of playing. This thing is difficult to handle in android, So at server end you can do it easily and hence whatever the format of the video is being uploaded you can download it in one format .3gp and it will work fine.

Make sure that your video is in MP4 format , but if still does not play or shows same error then fault is not with the code. Fault is in the video resolution. just check height and width of you video and match it with you video view component. There are lot of free video compressors Online available. So just compress your video and test it.
It will work.
Cheers!!!

I kept getting the same "Can't Play Video" message while trying to play video from the phone itself. First I didn't input good path to a file but there was anther interesting issue.
I've type path from the root, example /videoFileName.mp4 and I should have type it with sdcard in between like /sdcard/videoFileName.mp4
My Sony Ercisson Xperia Arc was connected as a usb mass device storage at the same time I was running my app through adb, so internal sd card was unmounted and file could not be found. I've discovered this when I tryed same code on Samsung Galaxy S which behaves differently when connected.

If you have mp4 file having H.264 baseline encoding and still you are unable to play video in your android device then it might be problem in .htAccess file on server side. It might be zipping .mp4 file. few devices are able to play video by unzipping it and stream it but not in all device cases. You need to change .htAccess file on server side. Change in output filter and include file format .mp4 to exclude it from being zip at streaming time.

Google recently open-sourced Exoplayer after Google IO 2014.
My experience with video playing with it was good so far.
https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer
I could stream videos from Dropbox/AWS
Stream videos from youtube.
Things still depend upon codecs supported by the device.

I had this same issue while using VideoView, while i tried to check all things regarding the video the issue was in the AndroidManifest.xml File, It was regarding the permission to use EXTERNAL STORAGE give it a shot it might solve the issue.

I came across the same problem and what worked for is adding the Internet permission to the manifest file since I am getting video from url.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
This is how I am populating listview of videos.
//assign video
mVideosListView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.videoListView);
//create videos
Video riverVideo = new Video("https://s3.amazonaws.com/androidvideostutorial/862009639.mp4");
Video carsVideo = new Video("https://s3.amazonaws.com/androidvideostutorial/862013714.mp4");
Video townVideo = new Video("https://s3.amazonaws.com/androidvideostutorial/862014159.mp4");
Video whiteCarVideo = new Video("https://s3.amazonaws.com/androidvideostutorial/862014159.mp4");
Video parkVideo = new Video("https://s3.amazonaws.com/androidvideostutorial/862014834.mp4");
Video busyCityVideo = new Video("https://s3.amazonaws.com/androidvideostutorial/862017385.mp4");
mVideosList.add(riverVideo);
mVideosList.add(carsVideo);
mVideosList.add(townVideo);
mVideosList.add(whiteCarVideo);
mVideosList.add(parkVideo);
mVideosList.add(busyCityVideo);
/***populate video list to adapter**/
mVideoAdapter = new VideoAdapter(this, mVideosList);
mVideosListView.setAdapter(mVideoAdapter);

I faced the same issue once. In My case only issue was fie format. i Just changed the video format to .mp4 and it works like charm on all the devices and emulator i used.
my suggestion is to check your video format first and then try other solutions.

For me was a problem with the codec used by video.
I installed the Any Video Converter and converted the video using the settings for Google Android (x264).
Now I can play on every device.

My problem was I had saved it in .avi format instead of .m4v format, and it worked liked a charm on my Samsung...thanks for everyone's help!
