HSPA+ Question

I recently flashed the 2.2.13 Rom and I noticed that I am constantly on 3G. I was running the stable CM10 rom and I always had HSPA+ coverage in my city. I did a full wipe/cleared data/factory reset/etc. when I flashed this ROM. I noticed this so I did it again and then I was still only showing 3G. My network setting is set to "LTE/GSM/WCDMA" and I have rebooted and no dice. So for comparisons sake I reflashed stable CM10 and a stock TW ROM and they both showed HSPA+ signal. I noticed that the data speeds on this ROM is a little slower compared to the other two, but I assume that's because of the 3G signal. I really like this ROM and I would hate to switch it out before I exhausted my options.

Any recommendations on "fixing" this issue? I live in an area that is fully covered with HSPA+, (zip 88011). I have attached a photo of the coverage map below and I live well within the city limits.

Okay, ive attempted to search for this for the past week. So, if you feel as though you need to tell me that the issue has been discussed ad nauseum, i dont mind. But please, if you can help, then please do so.

I seem to have worked my bluetooth issues out. This ROM is amazing. However, one last thing i cannot seem to get working is when i connect my s3 to my Pioneer head unit in my truck. The music plays, the phone functionality works perfectly, the bass is their, it connects like it should and my steering wheel buttons will control the phone (play, pause, FF, RWND). BUT, neither google play music nor any other music player ive tried will display the track info on the screen of the radio.

Does anyone have any idea what i could do to fix this? The track info would display on stock rooted ICS. But not with this ROM. I believe it might have something to do with the AVRCP version... Whatever that is.

Any ideas?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
You will need to add the code for that to work. It's the only way.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] alacrify:
AVRCP is not included in AOSP (I believe), and as far as I can tell from a quick search, it isn't included in Task's ROM at this point.

Are you using the data at the time? It will drop down to 3G when there is no traffic to save battery, but should go back to h+ as soon as you start using it.

Also check that you have the correct apn settings.

I tried to search "how to OTA update" or just infformation on OTA updates under this thread and the main thread, didn't find an answer or a compilation of answers that can run me through the process. The situation is this. I tried a few days ago to run an OTA update and it ended up bad. Keyboard stopping, some apps missing etc. So I just did a full wipe etc flash to fix it. What I did initially, was go to OTA updater, uncheck the CWM option seeing that I am using TWRP, d/l and install the update, then wipe cache/dalvik. So my question is, what exactly is the process to do an OTA update? My phone has TWRP 2.3.3.1. Also what is the install files before ROM, install files after ROM option for? Thanks in advance.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] alacrify:
First, you don't mention flashing Gapps - that's still a requirement. However, you can put that in the "After" folder, and it will flash...after the ROM. I think that should give you a hint what the "Before" folder does ;)

Forgive me if this has been answered, but I searched and couldn't produce any reply.

I'm a big fan of Tasker, but this ROM doesn't allow me to change the modem (2g/3g toggle). I know this is a fault of 4.2.1, but it seems as though the latest 4.2 PACMAN ROM I tried last night let me do it just fine.. I'm wondering if it's at all possible to implement whatever is going on there? Just curious, not feature-bugging here. I assume it has something to do with CM10.1? Is there a workaround?

Thanks, and really, this is a smooth as heck rom. Using xpose with it for per-app DPI as the PACMAN ROM adds the three-dot menu that I really dislike for whatever reason. That ROM is great, too, though!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
I've already reverted the auto WiFi connect that was causing the issue. You will have to wait until I release whenever that may be.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cloud9x:
Thanks for the quick reply. Does the auto-wifi connect issue affect the 2g/3g toggles in tasker? That's a doozy.

I've been using it so that when it's connected to any wifi, it reverts to 2G and when it leaves wifi, it reverts to 3G/4G LTE (for LTE, I have to go through Secure Settings - which seems to want CM/AOKP but not recognize your ROM as either - a moot point and totally irrelevant to me, honestly, as I am really just looking for the wifi -> 2g; no wifi -> 3g functionality).

Thanks again for your dedication, friend. Really, it's people like you that make our phones as awesome as they are.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
I have no clue. I don't use tasker. But either way. Not sure why you would need 2G when connected to WiFi considering that wouldn't effect anything. You cannot use data and wifi simultaneously. Like I said. You will have to wait for the next release and I have no clue when that will be.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cloud9x:
Unfortunately, I live in an area where 3G signal varies (and fluctuates heavily) and 4G quality is very, very low. To save battery between work, school and home, I have it set to 2G so I don't eat up battery while connected to wifi. I'm not sure if it's a placebo effect or not, but I see a fair difference in idling battery life, at least.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
It wouldn't matter what type of data you have it set to if you have WiFi on. When you have WiFi on, data is void (Not in use) with the exception of MMS messages. Its a major placebo effect on your part.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cloud9x:
Fair enough. I had figured that a low quality signal would chew more battery than a high quality signal? Or rather, 2G would eat up less battery than 3G and 3G less than 4G, especially if signal quality varied? Or is that only when data is in use?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Signal is different than data. If you have a poor signal, you have a poor signal.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cloud9x:
And does the poor signal affect battery life very negatively? I have very poor LTE at home, and my phone seemingly stays on LTE even while I'm on wifi..

Re: ~~Q&A~~ AT&T AOKP v4.2.x For some no hassle help

Questions about updating. I tried a few times to use the OTA setup to also install the gapps but never got it to work. As a result I'd have to reboot to recovery and do the gapps. Does that system work and I was just doing it wrong?

During that first reboot before installing the gapps I'd get lots of FC errors even as I was trying to restart it right away. Usually keyboard errors but sometimes others. I'd never see them again after installing the gapps though.

However I'd have to re-set my Google account info every time it came up afterwards.

So this time I used recovery to do 2-10-13, the new kernel and gapps and then the cache and dalvik. I didn't get the usual rebuilding nor starting apps nor the re-registration for Google. Everything seems fine but I figure this is a sign that something did not go correctly.

Doesn't wiping the dalvik cause the rebuilding as a matter of course? Does mean that TWRP didn't do the wiping it claimed to?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AtoZ0to9:
I've never used the OTA Updater, but I use TWRP... I've always done a full wipe when installing, and don't have issues... Factory Reset, Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik, Wipe System, Flash both zips...

Skipping the Factory Reset is technically a dirty flash, because data doesn't get wiped...

Does anyone know why Google navigation no longer quiets the music before giving turn-by-turn instructions? If I am playing music I can't hear the nice lady's instructions (I've tried both Google music and Pandora).

Back in the stock 4.1.1 rom, it used to quiet the music to about 50% while she was talking, but I haven't gotten it to work in any of the 4.2.1 roms I have tried.

Does anyone know how I can resolve this issue? Or is this just an issue inherent to the new OS.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] alacrify:
It works fine if you have Tasks gapps in the after-ROM folder and set the options correctly in the OTA screens. By default, it is NOT set to install anything extra - and you have to make sure you've got the right file in the right folder. Then it works fine - I use it every release, then periodically I do a full wipe manually just to keep the system clean.

Under "Statusbar Toggles", you can choose toggles to "silent", "Vibrate on", and "Silent Off". When you choose "Silent On" it activates the "Vibrate Off" and "Silent On". When you choose "Vibrate On" it also turns the "Silent On" to on.

To make a long story short......I would like to be able to have nothing but vibrate. Sound off, but VIBRATE on for all items. Is this possible currently?

Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Use the vibrate toggle.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dlbjmb35:
Understandable, but I was wondering if it is possible to not have sound but have vibrate. I can only figure out a way to do it with the toggles by doing sound on. Other wise vibrate is always off with sound off.

Hopefully this makes sense. In meetings or quiet settings it would be nice to be able to have vibrate with no sound. I can't see with the toggles where it's possible.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SeanHacker:
Yes. Use the vibrate toggle.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dlbjmb35:
I thought I had fixed it but still works like I described. I have all the toggles turned on like your pic shows. I can't get just "Vibrate", no sound. No matter how I toggle it, if I turn on vibrate it ALWAYS turns the sound on.

Re: ~~Q&A~~ AT&T AOKP v4.2.x For some no hassle help

Task it right. It's behaving like you want. I'm suspecting (unless you're experiencing a strange glitch) that you're confused because if you have "Vibrate" enabled, and you hit "Silent", the Vibrate toggle turns off. But you don't need to hit "silent" when in Vibrate mode, as your phone is already silent.

Vice versa, as well. When "Silent" is highlighted, and you hit "Vibrate", the silent toggle turns off, but your phone is still silent. They are essentially two different versions of silent. But only one toggle can be active at once. (Hope I worded all of that in a way that makes sense).
