[Motorola Droid RAZR] iolinux333:
Maybe you can find a friend with a RAZR to compare? In general I find I have to speak pretty loudly into all modern cell phones - they have all been that way since about 1999 when they started using heavy data compression. Before that a few Qualcomm cell phones actually sounded much better than landlines.

The Motorola Defy actually has microphone settings that let me bump trebel for outgoing voice, making it the most intelligible modern cell phone made in the past few years, but with the locked bootloader, it's stuck on 2.2 forever.

I have seen two reports on the Web of RAZRs with defective microphones though, maybe you are number three. The RAZR has the best outgoing voice quality of the latest generation of phones so you really need to find another to compare & make sure yours isn't defect report #3.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] DanielMod:
Ill try to test it out,thanks for the replay.

More opinions?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Vatazhka:
Perhaps you are covering one of the two microphone pinholes when holding the phone next to your ear?

Check out if your provider supports HD Voice, it makes huge difference in call quality. However, there are a lot of restrictions in place, such as that both parties must use phones supporting HD Voice, usually be on the same network etc.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] iolinux333:
Also some people have found their microphone holes plugged with lint and after carefully removing with pin had improvement. I just remembered 1 report where are a person solved the issue with a hard reset, you could try that if you're bored & have an hour or two to reconstruct your interface to your liking.

It's more or less one month that I have the SlimICS ROM installed on my phone and I never had any problem, but this morning suddently every time I try to install a new app, appear a message telling me that it's impossible to install the apk, and I have to free some space, but I have 600mb free.

How can I fix this issue?

Go to Settings --> Apps

Sort apps by size and move

every

(excluding widgets and root apps) app/game to sdcard.

Then restart phone to recovery, wipe cache, dalvik-cache, fix permissions and reboot to Android and check after few minutes if this helped.

Andriod is a great os.... Why don't u guys come up with android messenger with a pin for all android users and windows mobile phones. U can also extend it to symbian iphone and blackberry os. This is an idea of what i have in mind. The adm (android messenger) would be compatible with all os. The download will be once using the phone 'imei' so that even when the application is deleted and downloaded again it can still retain the same pin becos the imei becomes registered with one pin on the data-base.

Guys can i see how many can go with me on this?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] case-sensitive:
I'm thinking of getting a GN and I have a few questions; your help and suggestions are most appreciative:

(1) Does the stock rom (4.1.1) support OTG mode?

(2) Can I use a usb hub to charge the phone and connect to a TV via mhl at the same time?

(3) I plan to root the GN. How might that affect OTA update? e.g. do I have to unroot it to get OTA? would OTA unroot the phone?

Thanks!

requirements:

7zip/winrar/winzip/...

image editing program like photoshop

1. open the apk you want to mod with 7zip/winrar/...

we are going to use only two folders:

res/drawable-hdpi

res/drawable-land-hdpi

you will see that the images in res/drawable-land-hdpi are exactly the same as the images in res/drawable-hdpi only the resolution is different, that because images in res/drawable-land-hdpi are what you will see in landscape mode.

2. extract the images you want to edit/replace

3. do all the changes you want to the images.

4. replace the images in the apk with the same name and format (.png .jpg ....)

5. zipalign the apk using this tutorial.

and that's it!

note:

if you want access to everything (like the values folders) you will need to decompile the apk.

hope you will find this tutorial useful:)
[Xperia Arc General] SXUsr:
Don't forget to zipalign the apk when you're done. ;) And editing .9pngs requires a decompiled apk.

i know, but as i said in the title this tutorial is for simple mods. there enough tutorials for everything you mentioned, but ill add some information about this;)
[Xperia Arc General] SXUsr:
But it should go hand in hand, I'd never use an apk that hasn't been zipaligned for reasons stated at the link I posted.

Great, but I would have put it, "5. Zipalign", not "if you want to". ;);)

Waiting to try the Rogers ICS when I get home. Looking forward to a hybrid/tablet ROM where we can use our Samsung native S-Pen apps and widgets.

I upgraded my co-worker's Note to Electron's UCLF6 stock rom just a week ago.

CWM'd back to stock, had to CWM flash the stock GB Rogers modem in order to get the upgrade to register.

He's wasting his data doing the upgrade now. Luckily it's only 251MB. :-p

Maybe I'll hitup a Timmy's or Mc'D's at lunch and upgrade to Rogers ICS.

No soup for me so far :(

I have a Rogers I717R, unlocked and rooted via the Odin method and am on Bell LTE and flashed with a Bell radio.

I have clicked on "Update" numerous times now, but it keeps coming back to me with "No update available"...is it because I'm rooted with CWM and running a Bell radio on the Rogers firmware?

I downloaded and installed Kies, but it says that my device doesn't support firmware updates via Kies or something to that effect... ;-(

I don't mind losing root (have to use that POS GOOD for Enterprise software for work), but I'm not sure what the issue is here or how best to address it. Do I have to reflash the original, untouched Rogers I717R firmware and radio via Odin to get the ICS update?

Thanks,

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] auslander1138:
May I ask where you got the "stock" Rogers CWM modem to flash? None of the links that I have found so far through searching through the forums are still valid :(

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Agoattamer:
I wonder why I am not seeing it. Maybe because I am using the phone on ATT? It is still 100% stock although rooted. I have no S-note available through samsung apps or s-choice. Huh.....

Can anybody upload the file? I tried previous deodexed versions and they do not run.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] perosredo:
I'm now on ATT's UCLF5 - shouldn't I be upgrading to ATT's UCLF6 as opposed to Rogers' own update which is UCLF 4? And then perhaps flash the Rogers modem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Agoattamer:
Got to thinking about S-note. It requires lib files that can't be installed with an apk. So I don't think you can get it on Samsung Apps. I know a few said they did but it must be another app. Most likely it will be a software update soon available OTA or by kies. I tracked down the lib files and installed snote from the latest ATT ICS update and all is working well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gabby131:
Interesting...so everyone have different Sammy suite issues....i can see S note since gb but cant install for it requires ICS (unless you edit your build.prop). when i update via kies, i successfuly installed s note from Samsung apps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Agoattamer:
May I ask the process by how you did it? I still can't find it in s-choice or samsung apps. Possibly samsung is blocking it because I am using the I717R in the USA with ATT. However I am completely stock except for being rooted.

I managed to install a version from the leaked ATT ICS. But other than the apk there are also many lib files that have to be installed separately and the example files. But it is working.

When I connect with kies I don't see how to connect with samsung apps. Under Store, all I have is Podcast Channel. :(

Edit: Going to Samsung Apps on my PC does show it available but only for the GT-I9220.

2nd Edit: I have no Samsung Apps on Kies because I am in the USA. But there is a fix.

I now had to set up a separate samsung apps account for canada, which I selected as my country, when I started Kies. I was now able to see a Samsung Apps tab. However it is showing the I717R as not supported. The only supported Samsung Note was the GT-I9220. I selected that and was now able to search for S-Note. I found it and downloaded it. It is same version and size as noted in above post. But I can't install it because my I717-R is not a supported device.

If you are in the USA... So has anyone else's I717R showing up as supported in kies? And has anyone successfully installed it or just saw it the way I did? Still not showing up on samsung apps on the phone.

Hi. Is there a stable solution for the BSODs (Black screen of deaths) problem?!? It happens with cm7 and miui roms (AOSP roms). Is it related to the kernel, to the baseband or what else? If you have suggestions...please share with us!!! :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Memhis:
For problems with certain rom/kernel, it would be better to search for answer in their certain thread, as you haven`t write which is your rom/kernel. I would try with changing kernel first or try to over-volt current kernel to see if helps.

However, I would recommend you to go to cutom stock based roms/kernels, which are good, fast and stable. Put an eye on this one ;).

Or to be sure that it is not a hardware error, go back to pure stock first.

Yes, Devs do recommend using from scratch - but that doesn't change anything. The image you'd be downloading IS THE SOURCE CODE FROM GOOGLE. It would actually be the exact same thing, as they said.

That being said, I tried waiting as well - my wait was over yesterday, however I couldn't remove ClockWorkMod to actually do the OTA install and ended up using the Google Source build anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crazifyngers:
I believe they recommend that mainly because of any modifications you may have made while on the previous version. if you want it badly just apply the ota and then factory reset your device. it will be the same experience as using the factory images.

I was running CM9 without any issues (CM9 kernel) and did a complete wipe and flashed the ACS AOSP 4.1.1, and all seemed well. At some point I lost 3G, then it picked up 1x... and that went back & forth for a while... then eventually both stopped connecting and now it won't come back at all.

I even restored my CM9 nandroid and I still don't have data.

I didn't flash anything but the ROM and the gapps linked in the ACS thread, and like I said everything was fine for a bit.

Any ideas? Voice works, but no data.

I updated Profile & PRL with WiFi on, both said successful, but when I turn WiFi off the data connection doesn't happen. Yes, Mobile Data is turned on, and I've tried all of the different settings.

EDIT: I even flashed CM9 back over top of itself... nada. Next up... full wipe and fresh CM9 flash again... /sigh ***WAIT*** That fixed it...
