Hi Stylon,

Got the PM. I'm buried at the moment developing a 3.4 kernel for the RAZR-HD. However, I did plan to revisit backlight / light sensor changes and the audio issues once I free up. (As well as the 3.4 kernel for the KFire's -- tho it may be a 3.8 kernel by the look of things.)

Great work on testing the audio input w/ tinycap. :)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sbradymobile:
Thanks, with the changing the device from 2 to 3 (see below) it looks like Google Now will work. I haven't tried any other apps yet, but you can give this a try in device/amazon/otter-common for testing.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] BrooklynNY:
I assume I flash this zip in recovery, That's all to be done in order to test it?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sbradymobile:
Yes, it is a recovery flashable zip; it appears that there is an issue where you have to unplug the headset for the audio to play again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] rcolddroid:
both google now and easy voice recorder work. Meeting Rec did not. Amazon Mp3 audio worked after headset unplugged and then headset worked once plugged back in. Many thanks All!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] stylon:
Hi sbradymobile,

I found that, too, already, but wasn't yet home to compile and test live on my KF. Great find and good to know that fixes it already :)

Best,

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
Great work guys!

Sbradymobile did you want to submit that as a merge request?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Vlasp:
So this would for all jb ROMs? I am on chameleon os.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] milanche:
Great work thanks.

Google Now works for me. Tried Skype, but no success - other side gets no sound.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] wws12:
You are the bomb! Thanks so much!

EDIT: After testing, it appears that Google Voice Search will not respond back with audio feedback. I have the same settings that I have on my Nexus 7 that works fine. What happens is this, I plug the headset in and speak in Google Now. It recognizes it fine and processes it with no voice feedback. If I unplug the headset and try to use Google Voice Search, it says "Didn't catch that" with a sad cloud picture, obviously from the lack of a mic. When I plug the headset back in and invoke Voice Search, it plays the "doo dit" sound that plays when you use Google Voice Search and then says 'Didn't catch that, try speaking again" with a word bubble picture instead of the normal sad cloud. If I tap the mic again, it recognizes the verbal input, but without voice feedback or the "doo dit" sounds. Hope this helps, and great work on getting it this far!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Vlasp:
Yeah, this is a problem for me.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] stylon:
Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I did apply your patch and used the audio_policy.conf from the audio/ directory to compile again a ROM on my own, but both GoogleNow and GoogleVoiceSearch don't work. They both abort and from "adb logcat" it looks like that they do use the device now (had some errors opening the wrong one before), but now some MicrophoneThread dies unexpectedly. However, I got at least one "meter" app called "Audio Meter" working and although it does show some awkward dB level at idle (around 60dB), it does go up to 100dB when noise or voice is being recorded.

Best,

I have a new audio HAL that I'm going to be testing with to get the MIC working. Pretty sure we need some different mixer settings.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] wws12:
What's a HAL?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] sagnam:
Hardware Abstraction Layer
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Hashcode:
It's the part of the Android operating system that interacts directly with the kernel software driver. This piece is changed out (potentially) for each device where the rest of Android's audio system is the same.

The audio changes aren't just for the MIC alone. I'm working on finishing the kernel 3.4 upgrade and the source in the kernel for the audio codec chip is a complete re-write.

I just installed the OTA ICS update this morning on my phone. After doing so, my phone lost its root access. Is there any way to get root again without reverting back to gingerbread?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] famosamos2002:
I think you might be stuck without root...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gzerner:
I'll wait and see if someone has an alternative method of rooting this phone.

Download and run the SPH-D710.FF18_CL663858_ROOTED_NODATA-oc-sfx.exe

it will give you root back without changing anything else.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Download sfhub's FF18 + root now that it is confirmed to match OTA, put phone in download mode and flash from PC. Voila! OTA and root.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gzerner:
Thank you very much. I will try that.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pasta1234:
If you start with a stock EL29 phone (non rooted), whats the best approach to take resulting in the smoothest best experience ? Is their a difference ?

1) EL29 -> OTA Update Zip -> Sfhub No Data + Root FF18

2) EL29 -> Sfhub No Data + Root FF18

3) EL29 -> OTA Update Zip -> Sfhub Reset Data + Root FF18

4) EL29 -> Sfhub Reset Data + Root FF18

Thanks !!

Pete
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
#1 and #2 would potentially cause issues if there was something lingering in /data. Depends how long you have had the phone, what apps you have installed, etc.

#1 and #3 are redundant as well, so you're down to #2 and #4.

If you want the "cleanest" installation #4 is the way to go. May require to reinstall apps and some data but at least you're on a clean slate.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mrej201:
really all you have to do is one click shub no data is that so hard
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
LOL, The No Data would be like the OTA, Both will cause some issues requiring data on some apps needing to be cleared. Like Swype. But no it isn't hard.

The FULL FF18 can be applied no matter what firmware you are on and nulls the need to do any wiping. Just backup your contacts, mms, call logs and if you have titanium backup backup the rest of your stuff too. Just apply.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pasta1234:
It isn't hard, just trying to understand the complete picture and see what the realistic differences are..

Out of curiosity, how do you guys backup your contacts? I've always had the issue, where Google sync brings back lots of stuff and then a backup contact restore results in duplicates??

Pete
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
I use Super Backup which saves them to the memory card. Titanium Backup supposedly gained the feature recently.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] proxy0:
I just want to be able to flash from stock rooted ff18 to whatever ics I want. Can I do this with the Iva rims that fixed the emmc bug?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
You can use AGATs FF18 kernel but I would double check with the rom dev as far as the updater binary being safe. I can only comment on flashing CM9 updates and wiping which are safe on safe kernels.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hansdg1:
I had a rooted EL29 stock recovery yesterday morning. I then got the OTA update to ICS (FF18) but I found out today that I lost root. Since I am still on the stock recovery, is this going to work fine?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Flashing by Odin is still ok.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rault18:
Hey guys,

Sorry I took so long reviewing this case. But here it is. I honestly think that diztronic is the perfect balance of protection and budget. This version for the s3 is awesome as well. Cant complain at all

Here you go enjoy!

[youtube]WsUFhbZns58[/youtube]

http://youtu.be/WsUFhbZns58
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ExodusC:
I actually bought one of these from Amazon. I bought the clear white model, to match with my white SGS3.

Overall this thing is great. Like you said, it's a great balance of price/protection/form factor. My cutouts are ever, ever so slightly off, but it's so minor I didn't notice it until the second or third, when I was inspecting the case to see how it had been holding up. I'm pleased with it, and if this one eventually wears out I'll probably buy another...

If I don't break down and buy an Otterbox by then. I admittedly drop my phones sometimes (not that one, yet), and I'm terrified I'll break it.

Oh, and mine also came with a screen protector that was almost too small (it has to be aligned absolutely perfectly to cover the screen area), but I can only give them props for including one when I wasn't expecting it. Too bad I messed up the application, my fault, obviously.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] dukemagic:
I just received my case today (matte black). I'm very impressed with it as well, it fits MUCH better than the cheap $2 case I had picked up earlier. I wish it was matte all over (front is glossy) but it's otherwise handsome, feels nice, and fits very well. My cutouts are just slightly off as well but they're oversized (thankfully) so it doesn't affect function.

Already have a screen protector on so haven't tried Diztronic's out. I agree that it's a tad small, even taking into consideration the curvature of the screen.

Overall, highly recommended if you're looking for a TPU case.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] itzike:
i still have the Matte Black EVO LTE Diztronic case. It was the perfect case for the phone. I'm currently waiting for my s3 case to come now
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rault18:
I know right I still have my cases for the s2 and gn haha
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ElBeaner:
Well I just got my TPU case, and it was a great fit, it would not work with my Moshi screen protector.

Sadly I am now looking for something else.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rault18:
Fyi for you guys that are having trouble with screen shields ik rocking the sgp nano and it works like a charm
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rault18:
Glad you are enjoying it
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rault18:
Exodus I will be getting an otterbox and hopefully I'll like it lol. It's just hard to match the price tag of this tpu cases tho
[Galaxy S III Accessories] burntwolf735:
I have the Matte Black version and it works and looks really nice. Haven't had any complaints with it, also you get a screen protector with it too. Its a dry application one and even though I don't care to use screen protectors its very clear when applied.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rault18:
That's the color I'm rocking. Can't complain honestly

I installed JB on my GN. Everything is running fine. But I notice some small problems :

1. When the phone turned off and I plug in the charger, it freezes at the battery icon [The icon with lightning, not the one flashing] , and I can't turn it on unless I take the battery out.

2. Sometimes the battery does not clear history after charge.

Is there any solution ? :confused:

How to fix it ? It really annoys me.

Hi guys, I'm a Galaxy note (International N7000) owner and I have severe black crush and clipping issues during video playback. I gathered all the threads here and posted the issue to gsmarena and they have published it yesterday.

www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note_plagued_by_display_issues-news-4513.php

So those of you US At&T Galaxy note owners who have Notes which exhibit these issues, please come forward and leave your comments for the article so that we can raise Samsung's attention for an explanation and a fix. This is the least I could do from my side and I hope every affected Note owner would support this cause.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] JGuinan007:
Wow they are the only ones to publish anything about this issue the rest of the phone site are scared to lose advertising money from Samsung if they post negative articles about their product I'm surprised GSM did I sent copies of threads to phone arena and Android Police and never heard or saw a thing. Samsung still denies there is a problem.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] satishp:
Those of you who are intrested, please follow my original thread. I have good news that a few more blogs have published this issue. I believe that I've seen a lot of US note users also complaing about the same issues that we are going through. So kindly post your comments and findings in this thread or my original thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1768619

We have to start from where the devs abandoned this issue and bring this existing issue back into light. So once again, affected users, do leave your comments on the GsmArena article too.

Thanks

The US Cellular store had just got their demo model in and they allowed me to install and run Quadrant. I was very pleased to see a score of 5100. Yes, 5100, not a typo.

Hi,

i bought my S3 second hand. I thought its a free version.

In the Playstore my phone is called "Vodafone S3". I am with Vodafone. Is that the reason?

I didn´t get the last ota and i can´t download the bbc olympics app. So i started to doubt if i really have a free device.

Is there anyway to find that out?

thx
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slking1989:
Got any Vodafone apps. Mine was Vodafone branded and it came with 6 apps. One of which being update
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Branding means it is branded by boot screen or some other network personalization .

Network provided means phone branded or not provided by a network and updates tied to that network .

Your individual phone gets updates as and when the provider decides to update .

KIES will tell you the latest firmware for YOUR phone or CHECKFUS the same .

Or join XDA developers forum and flash stock firmware .

A Samsung or your phone providers forum could have more information on updates .
