[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n3m3sis:
I have found a solution to this problem which it seems a many i9100 owners have. I do not have other roms to test it on, only LA's Cyanogen 12.1 nightly's so far.

Also solution is rough round the edges and settings need refinement BUT the settings remain even after reboot, unlike alterations to the service menu audio, which reset.

Using a file editor (phone must be rooted to use this method)

Mount system R/W.

Navigate to device folders.

Open "etc" folder.

Open "tinyalsa-audio.xml" file with editor

There are a number of values there that are set very low.

Try raising them in increments of 5 or 10, all except the ones that are "0"

as that is an off state (I think).

Earpiece section raise between 79 - 84

You can also change the gain on the microphone from "2" to "3"

Save and reboot and you will have a louder phone where the settings stick.

I still have to experiment for an ideal but when I have it I am going to

copy it out to my sd card for re-installation when I upgrade the nightly.

It would be interesting to know if this works on rooted stock or other roms as

from reading here, this low problem volume has been a problem for us humble i1900 users,

especially on cyanogenmod roms.

Important Update!!

Please note that if you have an edited tinyalsa.xml file and you update your rom with

another similar rom (a more current nightly perhaps) you will have to make the changes again to the tinyalsa.xml file. Saving the previously altered one somewhere else and then copying over the new one will not work and result in you not hearing anything at all. Therefore save a copy as a reference Keithross39 suggests, so that you know what to change when you update your rom.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keithross39:
I am using a similar method on my S5....except the file that I needed to alter was called 'mixer paths xml'.....I can vouch that this method does work, but I'd advise making a copy of your original file first, so you have something to revert to if it all goes badly wrong (or even purely as 'reference' settings)

[HTC Inspire 4G] sano64:
Hey guys, I have been using some of the new Sense 3 roms but there are a couple things I prefer from the previous roms. The first is the Camera app. I hate seeing that little box for your stored pics up in the top corner and the tab for the front facing camera when this phone does not even have one. Can the old camera/gallery be used without creating problems?

This next one I have little hope for but will ask anyway... Dolby sound from the American version. I know these new roms are based on new European builds but I miss Dolby, SRS just sounds like crap to me. I keep switching back and forth from the American roms but then I start to miss all the Sense 3 features. Has anyone been able to do any of what I talked about and do they have anything compatible for new Virtuous Unity rom?

[G2 and Desire Z General] futuremonkey:
tl;dr version:

Made a cwm backup. When I restored the backup, all the apps & data I thought I had backed up were gone and default settings were in effect, as though I had done a factory reset. wtf?

Regular version:

After several months, I finally decided to root this G2. I followed the XDA wiki with no problems at all. All was fine and dandy. I had made a Clockworkmod backup (via recovery, not via Rom Manager) after ensuring that everything worked correctly after rooting. After a day or so, I decided to restore the backup I had made, because I wanted to make sure it was working before I installed a new ROM. After restoring, the phone rebooted and when I unlocked it, everything that wasn't on the SD card was gone. Apps, data, you name it. It was like I had done a factory wipe. Which pretty much defeats the purpose of making a backup. I checked the md5sums of all the *.img files in the backup, and they matched what cwm generated when it made the backup. So I don't really understand what happened.

I went ahead and installed CM7 and I'm fine with that, but it would still be nice to be able to go back to the original ROM.
[G2 and Desire Z General] nonione:
thats weird, sounds like you made a factory reset before doing the backup
[G2 and Desire Z General] futuremonkey:
It does sound that way, but that's absolutely not the case. I used the phone for quite a while after making the backup, and all seemed well.
[G2 and Desire Z General] wilnotdie:
Did you use and install anything on the phone prior to backup?

Or did you do revert to factory settings, backup, then used the phone?

Like the above guy said, sounds like you wiped to factory settings and than immediately did a backup. The backup only backs up your current state. Its not imcremental or automatic in anyway.
[G2 and Desire Z General] futuremonkey:
No. At no time did I wipe to factory settings. The phone at the time I made the backup was exactly the same as it's been for weeks before doing it. I also continued to use the phone after making the backup, during which time it was exactly as it was before I backed it up. It wasn't until I restored that backup (which was the first and only cwm backup I had made) that things went weird.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Czechton:
I had this exact thing happen to me a while ago, no idea what happened so I just flashed a new ROM and reinstalled everything. I know this doesn't really help you, but just to say, you're not the only one it's happened to.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kxmas:
I had the same problem. I purposefully backed up before flashing a kernel that didn't run for me. When I restored, all my data was gone. I had to use TitaniumBackup to restore individual item.
[General Questions and Answers] icreepin:
Just as the title says my wife wanted an iphone so we moved to att and my question is what is ATT version of the evo?

I looked on htc web site and the closest thing I can find is the ATT inspire.

Any suggestions?
[General Questions and Answers] jumpman1229:
I would say the HTC Inspire is the closest thing to it for AT&T
[General Questions and Answers] Zomboogz:
I would agree with jumpman1229, The HTC Inspire 4G is probably the closest thing. I just picked one up and pretty slick. They were really pushing the Samsung Infuse 4G, but I didn't want to pay the $199. I think the Samsung Infuse 4G is the newest one they threw out.
[General Questions and Answers] scotbot:
tell you what id do. I would get the htc sensation for tmo and unlock it to att. or wait for the world version of the evo 3d. but if you are trying to buy a subsidized phone then I would go with the inspire. Although it has no kickstand, no front facing camera, and it is buggy as hell. my friend has one and sometimes cant make a call without resetting it. he had att switch it out for him and it still has the problems.

I would ditch att for verizon. their network is better and the android choices are better. the thunderbolt is the evo.
[General Questions and Answers] icreepin:
Yeah I would have prefered verizon but my wife made the decision for fathers day ect. And honestly I would have kwpt the iphon but for some of the little things just mot included in the ATT base IOS.

I did go get the inspire so far seems good gonna keep it and just pay retail for an evo 3D when I can get it for ATT. or any dual core phone really.

Thanks for the heads up though.
[General Questions and Answers] martinomac:
Hello,

I would like to run a custom ROM for my Rogers Froyo 2.2 Samsung Galaxy S Captivate.

I have already rooted, printed Rogers APN settings and backed up using TitaniumBackup, but want to know the best way to update to Mosaic V.

Perhaps there are other Rogers users(I'm in Toronto area) that prefer other ROM's...I would love to hear your suggestions.

I'm mainly looking for reliable GPS, faster response and stable.

I appreciate any help.

thanks!

Martin
[General Questions and Answers] DanBroChill:
well I'm not sure what differences there are between rogers and att captivate, but once I rooted and backed up I just rebooted into CWM and install whichever rom I downloaded to my phone. I'm using CM7, the RC that just came out.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stanley Richards:
So I have an x10i on a custom ROM with baseband .52. There is absolutely nothing wrong with my phone but I want to use SEUS to format to the generic 2.1 so I can easily install a new ROM. (I'm the type to start fresh and anew). It worked once when I switched to the ROM I currently have. I can't remember which baseband I was on back then, but it worked fine.

Now when I try to use SEUS to install the firmware, it simply says "No new software available for your phone" with no option to install the firmware anyway.

Any ideas/fixes and possibly other ways to do what I want to do?

[Android Software Development] bferguson:
Acronym explosion!!!! Please help me with some terminology please. I would like to know what is:

1. I know JVQ is a modem, but I've also seen a million similar 3 letter acronyms that i only assume are modems also, such as JVP. Are all modems JVx?

2. What about some of the other 2-3 letter terms. KC1...

I am familiar with other basics, its just when these letters/numbers are tossed in out that I'm not sure exactly what they are.
[Android Software Development] WarDrake:
JVQ and JVP and such are not modems, they HAVE modems. those are the identification numbers for the ROM's

JVP came before JVQ fi you notice Q is after P in the alphabet, now JVP has a JVP Modem as well as a JVP PDA and it's CSC, all 3 form 1 ROM.

the part where you get told where are they from is the one BEFORE that, as in I9000XXJVP

that is the full name of the rom. it means it's for the I9000 device or Samsung Galaxy S, and it's a XX country code, this means Europe, and it's designation is JVP.

you can find a list of country codes with a search in this forums.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nek4u2002:
Hi,

After updating to Gingerbread 2.3.3, build 2.36.405.8, the headset controls (rew,fwd,play) stopped working. Altough I have selected in my music application, Poweramp to be the primary app, which should be able to control the headset buttons, I don't get any action, not even on the HTC music app.

At first it worked but it was a bit laggy and now is not working at all. Is this problem related to any other app I have installed?

If I have to do a factory reset...how can I do that?

Thanks in advance for help
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haerigrek:

I'll start out by saying I'm not strong with adb but I'm learning the commands and I'm familiar with push, install, etc.

After unlocking my Atrix bootloader via the instructions on briefmobile, I restored my backup from Titanium Backup. This caused an issue with my security settings, which is a known bug. The fix is detailed in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12567301&postcount=8

After I get into the adb shell and get su access, I tried typing sqlite3 and the database only to get back "sqlite3: not found". It doesn't appear to be in ls under system/bin either.

[HTC Sensation] justice26:
Try it at own risk, I am not responsible for any problems. It worked for me

This is my second sensation with the same issue. I got my second sensation approximately 6 days ago, after my first sensation developed the lock screen issues. Well today I started to experience the same lock screen issues that plagued my first sensation. Well I did a little checking around and I think I might have found a solution to the problem. I have an app installed called mybackup pro. I have been using this app for a while and it has come in real handy in restoring my phone. There is a free version available in the market. I used the paid version. I opened mybackup pro, and I just like to say that I DON'T HAVE anything to do with the app in regards to any monetary gain, basically I just use the app. I opened the ap, i clicked on cancel for the password, clicked on back up, data, local (/mnt/sdcard) check all, and let it back up all the settings. Well I went into my settings/applications/manageapplications/all. i then clicked on the first htc sense tab and cleared the data. You will be prompted with something to the pop up stating that all the applications data will be permanently deleted. I clicked ok and then clicked on the second htc sense tab and did the same thing. You will notice that all your widgets and everything will be deleted from your phone. I rebooted my phone and then opened mybackup pro and clicked on restore, data, local (/mnt/sdcard), data and the most resent date, I ONLY CHECKED MARKED SYSTEM SETTINGS, ANDROID HOME, AND CLICKED ON OK. Let it do its thing and when it is finished it will ask you to reboot your phone. Your phone should be extremely close to the way you had it before (widget wise). And in my case my lock screen is working again. I hope this helps anyone else. Again, It worked for me. :D

Sorry for the long entry but i was trying to be as specific as i possibly could for everyone, and yes my lock screen responds perfectly.

This post was meant for anyone experiencing lockscreen unresponsiveness on their phones.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
I already tried clearing the data from both Sense applications and then rebooted my phone. I didn't make a back up of everything so Sense was back to the way it came from the factory. Long story short. It didn't work for me. I still had the lock screen issue.
[HTC Sensation] fallenangel408:
also another trick to faulty lockscreen found on another post, when the phone lay flat on table lock seems to be trouble to unlock unless u pick the phone up in ur hands...but if u have it laying on table flat and grab left side of lock and drag it to the left and the up it works everytime for me...seems the left part of the lockscreen is always ok lol (something to do with phone being grounded)
[HTC Sensation] justice26:
Ok, the only difference is that I restored my settings using mybackup pro. Could that have been the difference.
[HTC Sensation] smashpunks:
I think the way the app and ring move together is what causes the lock issue. I think its just the physics of the ring/app moving together causing the issue. Thats my guess. Other than the lockscreen buggy I have no touch screen issues. YOU?
[HTC Sensation] justice26:
Wifi problem and as of today the lock screen issue started. He lockscreen issue has been resolved.
[HTC Sensation] justice26:
So far problem fixed
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
I doubt it but I'll sure as hell try if this happens to me again.
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
Yup, I think I agree with that. There are some issues that just don't make any sense though. Why does it become responsive after touching the ring two to three times. It will stay responsive like it should until you turn the display off. I just can't wrap my finger around it.
[HTC Sensation] justice26:
Could it be something with sense?
[HTC Sensation] jrwingate6:
Probably is. I seriously don't know why everyone praises HTC. They are going in the wrong direction with Sense. Instead of making it less intrusive, there making it more intrusive with SENSELESS eye candy. HTC needs to take a page out of Samsung's book in my opinion. There making there UI (Touch Wiz) less intrusive but still keeping the features that make Android better.

Sorry to say but this 3D eye candy isn't making anything better and it's quite obvious HTC half assed Sense 3.0.

I have oily skin type so I guess it must be my finger getting sticky. Went to tmobile and got a screen protector and it solves all the problem.
