Head sets?

I'm a fan of noise attenuating ear buds, ala JVC ha-fr50 whilst I'm driving for podcasts and phone calls.

Are there any decent BT ear buds like that? Something that blocks out a fair bit of the external road noise. As for the mic, I've had some folks say I sound fine but a little distant with the mic on those ear buds, but normal and clear when I practically eat the thing. I've never used BT ear buds or the streaming but from what you guys say, it seems sound quality isn't much of an issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] R1ptide:
No issues streaming BT on GB strongsteves ROM to my Sony receiver.

EL29 modem I think
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MrDowntown12:
Thanks for the responses guys. Apparently somethings changing on my phone with each flash or my Bluetooth radio is faulty in a slight way. Not in a big enough way to warrant a replacement uunfortunately. I'll see what I can figure out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BrandoKC:
What are you streaming through? My vw is a pita, but after some slapping it around I can usually get it to work.

Early leaks of ICS had popping, but that is gone in the later leaks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MrDowntown12:
Streaming just music from my sd card. The deck also supports bluetooth calling and connects to that at the same time. I never use it though, unless someone calls me. Connecting to the unit works just fine for all roms and versions, just the streaming quality is drastically different.

I was actually gonna see if i could get the unit to connect just the media and not the phone and see if that helps. I really don't know what else could be causing it. I can't pinpoint anything thats common or reoccurring each time the quality is bad.

All I know is AOSP works. Everytime. But why?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BrandoKC:
Look around. I believe someone else was having a similar issue but backwards.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MrDowntown12:
After some digging I found these threads here and here. Both by the same guy.

It appears he was onto a solution or at the very least a cause. Unfortunately, it appears that once ICS came out, the problem was solved by Samsung and it was quickly forgotten with no solution.

Except now, for me at least, the ICS TW roms don't stream properly anymore.

Also, just had a thought. When going between roms, I have skipped over flashing Caulks format all and just wiped data. Never had any problems, but I remember reading back in the hero days that not formatting every partition leaves some old files on the phone, and possibly bluetooth files are stored there? Should I try flashing a tw ICS rom after an AOSP rom without running format all?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] glassjosh:
I don't think that would be the case, but def worth a try. Lets us know since I would LOVE to be using my BT audio, but it reduced the quality too much for me, no popping etc, but, too poor quality for a good stereo/speakers and my prude-ears :P
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MrDowntown12:
Well I did try everything I could but came up empty handed. Theo only way I can get good Bluetooth quality is by running an AOSP ROM.

That itself isn't a bad thing because I love AOSP, but its a weird occurrence.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coldblooded79:
Cyanogenmod has a better Bluetooth stack is what I heard. Gotta love the $100 Jvc head unit:-)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] derrickmd18:
I have that. It's good but unless you have amps and subs not good
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MrDowntown12:
For anyone who comes upon this thread:

If you read the previous pages, you'd know that the only way I could get a quality bluetooth stream was by using and AOSP rom like CM9 or AOKP. Well, recently my nightmare was realized and now AOSP ROMs now longer send bluetooth clearly. I am starting to get the same static on the highs that I got on stock ROMs. I am unsure if this is a ROM issue or more phone specific, Nevertheless, this is what I have found up to now.

Bluetooth stacks and libs seem to be the main contributors to streaming quality. From what I can tell stacks are handled by the kernel and the libs are simply files that can be interchanged or edited. Both working in tandem seem to dictate what kind of quality you will get. I dug a little and tried editing files according the what was suggested in this thread here. I did notice somewhat of an improvement, though there is definitely still somewhat of a static on the highest end. It's bearable for now though.

I have a theory that the SDcard my also be causing a problem. I have yet to try this time, but a few months ago I completely formatted my SDcard in a effort to minimize variables and I did see an improvement. I will hopefully do this again soon along with the edits mentioned above and see what happens.

This is the point I am at right now. A quick XDA search tells me this is a problem among several different phones but does not seem to affect enough people to garner attention from the right people to fix it.

I will continue to try and find and solution. If anyone has any info, knowledge, or success on this issue please PM me or respond to this thread. I am subscribed to it and am yearning for any kind of direction or help, especially from a developer.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seed2:
With all the craziness of the super brick, i want to make sure that my phone doesn't get bricked to hell and back when ICS ota with full source code is released. So i decided to play it safe and i want to return back to good old GB.

Now for the epic question!

How do you revert back from ICS Stunner Beta 5.0 with kernel CF-Root 5.2 on CWM? Should i use pc-odin to perform it? Cause im very confused as to what can cause the brick and i just want a way to go back without brick-age.

Thanks for your time!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thehackersz:
- dowmload any GB custom rom, copy to your sdcard

- download jBroid Kernel Cleaning, copy to yout sdcard

- download AbyssNote v4.2 kernel, copy to your sdcard

- reboot to CWM recovery

- flash jBroid Kernel Cleaning

- flash AbyssNote v4.2 kernel

- reboot recovery

- flash new GB custom rom

- flash new kernel (if you prefer other than AbyssNote kernel)

- FULL WIPE

- REBOOT
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nakabim:
Hi,

I recently installed CM7 on my phone. I want to flash the radio, and I've looked over the entire forum.

It says reboot into recovery, and update from zip on sd card.

The problem I am having, is that it doesnt say this.

I reboot into recovery, get the red triangle, get passed it by pressing up and power. And then get to the menu that says

Android system recovery <2e>

Reboot system now

Apply sdcard:update.zip

Wipe data

Wipe Cache.

I tried renaming this file: signed_Froyo_Slide_Radio.zip as update, but that doesnt work either.

Am I supposed to wipe the data and cache first?

I've also tried rebooting into recovery from clockwork and that fails as well.

What am I doing wrong?

Is there a tutorial I can find that will help? The oddest thing is I thought rooting/installing cm7 would have been hard, but that turned out to be easier than what I thought would be the easiet thing of the bunch to do.

Any help will be appreciated, i have looked all over, but I'm sorry if this was answered already.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt.one:
going off my bare knowledge of the MT3GS that i help my sister do..

i thought the steps was..

1)reboot into "recovery"

2)red triangle screen

3)press VOL+ and POWER to get to the "temp recovery menu"

4)Apply sdcard:update.zip

5)should boot into a CWM recovery

((i thought it was CWM recovery that was the update.zip file in your SD card..))

it is in this CWM recovery where you select to flash the zip'ed radio.

***

i could be wrong and if i am hopefully someone can correct me/ point me and the OP in the right direction to flash radio as i want to do this for my sister's MT3GS soon as well.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nakabim:
I just tried that. Unfortunately, all it did was install the update.zip and then ask to reboot the phone.

Thank you for your help though.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhoWhere:
The process is very similar to what jt.one described but first you need to obtain a update.zip version of CWM recovery. You should be able to get one through Rom Manager (found on Google Play). Once in CWM you should have an option for exploring your SD Card and flashing your ZIP file of choice
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nakabim:
Finally got it to work, so here is what I did in case anyone wants a heads up.

First thing I did was format the sd card (i have a special card for doing crap like this)

Put the espimg.zip, and the radio zip on the sd.

I went into Rom Manager on my phone, i hit <Flash Clockworkmod Recovery>

and then <Reboot into Recovery>.

It then for some odd reason, finally gave me the correct menu to install zip from sd.

This time, the process was also different. Instead of selecting things with the power button, I had to select things with the middle button. (hitting the power button just turned off the screen)

So after going through the menu's and finding the update, I installed it, which took literally seconds.

Now everything is up and running. I am by no means any type of specialist or even remotely knowledgeable other than after I get some hands on experience, but if anyone else is having problems, maybe I can try to help you, since I had such a hard time.

Thanks again to jt.one and WhoWhere for their help and support.
[HTC One S] tongueman87:
Is it suppose to be blinking? While using Bluetooth?
[HTC One S] funziebear:
thats ur notification light haha :P:eek: tells u ur linked to bluetooth
[HTC One S] cawith:
No it's not. My proximity sensor is blinking as well. Sometimes mine continues blinking after the call has been ended.
[HTC One S] mr11brick:
I didn't know the proximity sensor can blink..like, got any pictures?

Are you 100% sure thats not your notification light?
[HTC One S] BTTRDYZ:
No Pics needed go into a pitch black room with your phone and call somebody...look at your phone, you'll see the proximity sensor flashing;)
[HTC One S] funziebear:
I've noticed it now after I read this but doesn't seem.to affect anything so it doesn't bug me
[HTC One S] soulcrusher:
And what if you hold your hand in front of the sensor while it's blinking and you're not calling? does the screen turn of as well?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] truciet:
I have say I really enjoy this case. It's got a nice soft matte touch to it. It's not too extreme though where dust gets stuck to it and you feel it. Those cases drive me crazy.

I definitely recommend it if you can wait 2.5 weeks for it to arrive. They come in black, clear, and blue. They all have a slight frosted look.

Also, this case is designed for the international HTC One X. So the camera and speaker hole will be slightly off since the AT&T One X and One XL is slightly longer. It still fits great though and the camera lens is PROTECTED!

I was only able to find them on eBay. Here are the links: Blue Black White

Thank me if you like and buy one too! :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] eazyweazy3:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
It's pretty slick but I'm anal about my cases, if it doesn't fit perfectly than i won't use it. That said, if they came out with one specifically for the AT&T one I'd be all over it like flies on sh*t.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] truciet:
Lol...I love the case so much, I would buy it too :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skantastico:
This is one of the better minimalist cases I've seen. Might pull the trigger soon if no ATT version comes out.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] truciet:
It fits perfectly fine. The camera is the only thing off. Either way, the lens is protected. Heck, it's only $12 lol. I'll use it until a proper one comes out. :D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pdubcramp:
This is the only case of this type I have seen. Am I missing something or do all the cases seem bulky and hide the design of the device?

I'd buy this if it fit immediately.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EdgaBimbam:
Some days ago was watching a lot of youtube videos about galaxy note and found one interesting thing. You can make screenshoots also with your hand motion. So at the moment, there are three ways of screencapturing: with spen, with holding down the Home and Power buttons and third one is with hand motion. Maybe it was known, maybe it wasnt, but i want to share because i can bet that there are plenty people who didnt know about this third type of screen capturing :)

here is video how to do it, for me it is working in LPY without problems:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulthuzard:
I really like the MIUI interface, but the phones i owned always has some minor flaws.

For example the HD2 had volume setting problems, and now the Atrix still has some bugs as well...

So I am wondering, whats the best choice if you want to run MIUI? The Xiaomi phone seems cool, but i dont think its available in my country.

So... thoughts welcome! thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dipo123:
... that's kinda tricky question.

Since you are not using a "stock/official" rom in your phone, it will likely show some bugs due not to be specifically designed for your phone as the manufacturer's one is.

Choosing a ROM/Phone combination is more or less a "trial/error" game.

MIUI official roms are good, but you should try the many customized versions available that most of the time includes fixes and mods for specific phones. Here on XDA you have the advantage of a more close communication with developers and the chance to get bugs/issues (or even on-demand features) quickly addressed.

As for your initial, question... i suggest going first for the "officially" supported phones on MIUI

(from MIUI main site)

Nexus One (N1)

HTC Desire (G7)

MOTO Milestone (MS)

HTC HD2

Desire HD

MIUI ROM For Nexus S

HTC Desire Z

Hope it helps on your choice

Have fun

When I go to storage to see how much space is available in my SD card it shows pictures 2.44GB how is that possible when I have a total of 3 pictures in my album? This is really annoying can someone please help me out.
[HTC Sensation] You_got_owned123:
Try to put your SD card into a SD reader and search through your card. Reformat it at last resort.
[HTC Sensation] tingtan:
Many apps will use storage in /sdcard (cache and large data), use your favorite file explorer (I like ES File Explorer) to find out what happen. Alternatively you can also download "DiskUsage" to show the file usages in graphical form.

[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Since when does calling 911 start a 5 minute data shutdown? This a new ics feature? I had to call in a prius playing chicken with my tractor trailer on interstate. After the call I get notification saying data is off with a timer in emergency mode. I use 911 often as I'm always calling in drunks, wrecks, fires etc. Never seen this before on android
[HTC Rezound] skater95:
No it's not a ics feature. I think it's an android feature cause my droid razr did it on GB.
[HTC Rezound] cdexsw:
Android feature. You can cancel it when prompted after the 911 call is over.
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
Snitches get stitches. But yeah it's an Android feature.
[HTC Rezound] Comicazy:
What's that supposed to mean? You don't think he should call these people in?

Sent with a Rezounding HELL YEA!
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Be that as it may. No ones ever succeeded yet.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
..you're kidding, right?

if you're seeing a wreck and you take the time to call it in, you're a good semaritan. if some dumb **** is playing chicken with you as a TRUCK DRIVER, you're just going to let it happen? call that **** in and hope that stupid asshat gets a ticket. i'm sorry dude, but that was just an ignorant, asinine comment on your part.
[HTC Rezound] SynisterWolf:
some big words there. but im with you. i call all the time on dumb ass drivers. cant hurt can it?
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
and calling in drunk drivers makes sense, even if you suspect it. chances are, whoevers stupid enough to drink and drive deserves what they get, but you know what, i'm feeling nice lately, so i'd rather report them to save their idiotic lives.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
I call alot of things in hell I pay a 911 fee we all do. I'm no highway angel. But if I potentially save life or a family its well worth it. And if your stranded in a storm and your in a ditch with no phone wouldn't you want someone to call in help?

Better yet heaven forbid your child or significant other kidnapped abducted etc we see an amber alert with a plate number matching description should we not snitch? I'll tell you first hand I will call it in and call it over the radio and box that vehicle in.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
good man. need more people like you, but i have a feeling majority of truckers are already like this. people don't know what common courtesy is in this day and age, and it's getting pathetic.

Nice stuff man, if there were more people like you i'd still have some good friends around.

Yeah, i accidentally dialed 911 the other day and a siren popped up with a timer and scared the **** out of me lol
[HTC Rezound] a.mcdear:
What is the purpose of the timeout? Just to make sure the phone is not being used in case they need to call you back for some reason?
[HTC Rezound] cdexsw:
Yup, exactly that.
[HTC Rezound] nolimitzr2:
Yeah but rezound n thunderbolts can simultaneously do it so no need imo for timer

This feature disables data.....unless you cancel it when prompted.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kevintstephens:
I installed the leaked ICS update, but I have apparently lost root. I tried using Voodoo, but it just says that it has been denied Superuser permissions and that there is no root backup available.

So I tried just plain rooting it using the Motofail method again, to no avail. It says that it is successful in completing the exploit.

However, no matter what app that requires root that I open, it says that the app has been denied Superuser permissions without even prompting me. Root checker says I am not rooted.

I went into the Superuser app, and I went to update the SU Binary. It says that Superuser has been granted Superuser permissions. But then it fails out at the end and says "This updater cannot update the su binary on phones that have some kind of write protection like S-ON. You can continue to use Superuser with your outdated binary, or update su with ROM manager."

I shouldn't even need to update the binary though, since it says I have the latest one installed.

What can/should I do? It's getting kind of annoying not having root on my phone.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] mcnabb311:
Thanks alot, i must try this.

---------- Post added at 07:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:14 PM ----------

So if you dont have root access, will the terminal move the unzipped su file? How can you apply this to your sysytem? Voodoo doesnt give you options to search for the file either. Of course, nothing has superuser permissions without root either. I guess Im too much of a n00b.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ali87va:
Same here

Na dude its not noobish,im tryna figure out everything myself,I've been flashing since the hd2,so i know a couple things but this is just mind boggeling lol
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kevintstephens:
I'm at a loss. I've downloaded your su-backup file, but I don't know how to move it to the /system folder, as it is write protected, and I don't have root to bypass that. And whenever I tried typing things in using the terminal, it just denied everything.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
You can't move this file to system folder because you have a non-rooted device. Be patient, we are working hard on that....

Does anyone know how to do profile update and PRL update with AOKP on sprint version ? Just wondering cause I don't see them in menu maybe a dial code to get it done like the iphone ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Not possible... only stock and cm9 have the sprint updates. You'll have to make a nandroid and flash stock/cm9 update it and restore your nandroid. I had to do this to fix data.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jgalan14:
Damn :-( OK thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Yep no problem
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MJHG23:
Voicemail and data issues

Any way you can explain this better? I am a noob, but understand the whole nandroid process, but what I'm having a disconnect with is flashing to stock and back to aokp with the nandroid. I have the nexus and after I installed the aokp M5 (upgraded straight from gingerbread stock), with gapps and matr1x kernel my phone won't connect to the voicemail when I press the vm icon or hold 1. It also won't connect to data services (3G). The prl and profile provision that I have to run in order to fix this issue isn't available in aokp so I'm guessing what you explained above is the only way to get this working. Hopefully this makes sense and you can help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jgalan14:
Do you have any signal at all?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Had this issue with aokp M5 as well. Just do a clean install and flash the Franco kernel. Its a known issues on that build. Although I think they fixed that I their more recent builds. If that doesn't work then make a nandroid. Flash cm9 update profile and restore that nandroid. If you dont know Google how to make and restore nandroids. :)
