That is correct. The phone does not have NFC.

I'm facing the low in-call volume with this phone, is anyone else have the same issue?

I can't hear the what other party is saying if its noisy outdoor and voice stutters a lot and not at all audible. Same issue is with speaker and earphone.

3G

I'm facing some problems with my duo when using 3G connection. that is when I set the 1st SIM card to 3G (or auto) for a while it works then for no reason I'm unable to make any calls from this SIM and also if people try to call me the phone seems off. The signal indicator always shows good signal.

Already tried to exchange SIM cards between slots and nothing...

This means that I can only use both SIM cards in GSM mode which sucks. does this anyone else has this problem? or any hints?

---------- Post added at 11:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 PM ----------

yes I also have this problem. not that the volume is low, but the voice sometimes shutters a lot and I can't understand a thing. I'm yet to understand why it happens sometimes and sometimes it doesn't... any hints?

Call forwarding

Hi guys,

Do you know how to setup call forwarding on either of the two sims on this model (S7562). I mean I want for each sim if don't answer in 10s, call to be redirected to another colleague of mine, or to my voice mail.

I need to do the same everytime I travel and I have my device off, all calls I from one SIM to be diverted to a colleague (just another contact).

Many thanks,

laf.

Tip

Here is a tip.

I need to have a complex password on my phone for business reasons, but that makes it rather inconvenient for quickly calling someone. I now found that I can use the default "ICE - Emergency Contacts" group to bypass the lock screen for dialling a contact.

So what you do is add contacts to the ICE group. Then when at the lock screen, press "Emergency call", which will present you with the Emergency dialler. Now press the Red Plus symbol on the bottom left corner.

When you press this, you will get the list of contacts that you stored in the ICE group.

Negatives I found;

- For a contact with multiple numbers, it does not give you the option to select the number. It just dials the one that is set as default for the contact.

- No way of selecting the SIM to use to make the call. It will use the SIM which is currently set for outbound calls.

Troubles with USB charging

It seems that the Samsung Galaxy S duos does not charge with some USB chargers. I have tried several chargers only the one that came with the s7562 and one from an HTC works. Other generic chargers incl a car charger don't work although they work fine with my other devices.

I have checked the output specs on the chargers. There's nothing remarkbly different between those that work and those that don't. All 5V and between 700mA to 1A.

Does anyone else have this problem? Do I need to use specific chargers? If so, advice about types and brand of especially car chargers are welcome. Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] robert__:
First of all, the charger should ideally be at least 0.7A. Second of all, it should support the official USB Charging specification. If that is not the case, it will draw at most 0.5A which is the maximum a regular USB port supports. The problem with only charging at 0.5A is that it takes longer and it may not charge if you use the device at the same time. So for instance if your using navigation, it may still discharge slowly.

You can see which charging method is being used by going to Settings -> About Device -> Status. Here the "Battery status" should show Charging (USB) or Charging (AC). You want it to show AC which means it is charging at full power.

The problem is with the fact that most 3rd party chargers are not compatible with the official USB Charging specification. The easiest way to see that on the box, is if it promises compatibility with Apple devices, then you can be sure it does not support the official USB Charging spec, as the two are mutually incompatible. In this case, your phone will only charge at 0.5A in USB mode.

So what is the incompatibility between the official USB charging spec and the Apple charging method? The official spec is very simple. if the middle 2 USB wires are 'shorted' then the device can use this to detect it is attached to a wall charger and is allowed to charge at full power.

The Apple charging method however uses those same two wires to negotiate charging levels, as such the wires are not 'shorted', and the device thinks it is a regular USB port and only charges at 0.5A max.

You can hack an Apple compatible charger such that it charges non-Apple devices properly, by crossing the middle two wires in some way. This could be by opening the adapter, or splicing a cable. In my case, I got some special adapters which short the middle two wires and allow me to use such a charger, but they are not easy to get.
[General Questions and Answers] mick.li:
This one definitely works. I charged my girlfriend's S7562 with it, even on the 1.2A port.

Mick
[General Questions and Answers] megathaum:
Thank you robert_, this is some great explanation. With the non working chargers I tested, the "Battery Status" shows "Discharging". So it is not charging at all.

But now that I know a bit more how it works I will check more carefully when buying a new one.

---------- Post added at 08:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:58 AM ----------

Thank you for the suggestion mick.li. Like robert_ mentioned, with the current car charger even when it "works", it doesn't charge when the navigation system is on, so I will definitely check out the one you suggested.
[General Questions and Answers] mick.li:
I just checked with my Galaxy Nexus real quick. When plugged in the 1.2A port it says "Charging (AC)" and when plugged in the 2.1A port (which is supposed to be for iPads and such) it says "Not Charging" (actually the German equivalent to that ;)). Probably too much juice on that one.

Mick
[General Questions and Answers] megathaum:
If you have data connection enabled, it is possible that some application is using that connection to check for updates etc during which time the other SIM is not available. They way I understand it is that these dual-sim phones are actually dual stand-by. Meaning that they are both in standby to receive calls at any time. But when one SIM is active (for data connection), the other one is temporarily unavailable for making or receiving calls.

On the Samsung Galaxy S duos S7562 however, there is an option to make both SIMs kind of always active. You can find the option in the SIM manager. It makes use of some call forwarding feature to route the phone calls from on SIM to the other. So that even when you are calling using SIM1, you can receive a call made to SIM2. This feature has to be supported by your operator though.
[General Questions and Answers] guitoxda:
Yes you are correct, when using data in one SIM card the other card is unavailable, but in my case the problem is that the card that loses connection is in fact the one selected for mobile data. In any case I already tried with data on and off and the problem remains.
[General Questions and Answers] megathaum:
Don't know if you have succeeded in switching the mount points for the internal and external SD cards. After researching on the internet it seems that this is pretty hard. I did somehow solve my problem with NavFree using Directory Bind (found here on the XDA forum) to map the map data folder on /sdcard to a location on /mnt/extSdCard. But if TomTom is checking the size of /sdcard before any installation or download this solution will not work. IMHO, we should urge the app makers to allow the choice on which SD card the user wants to store the data. For example, MapFactor Navigator does that nicely.
[General Questions and Answers] tristone:
Hi,

I did not solved it fully. I also found the DirectoryBInd which solve most of the problems.

TomTom must be cheated different way. You need an android phone which uses real SD as /sdcard and on this phone install TomTom and download maps. Then put the card back to S7562, install app and it works, data are already there so no downloading is needed.
[General Questions and Answers] megathaum:
Aha thanks for sharing the trick. Unfortunately no extra Android at hand now. Too bad for Tomtom :rolleyes:

Hello All. This is for everyone trying to Install KOR. Please note that at least for all India users you will have to flash the XXALJ4 ROM without which you will keep getting this Sim error. At least I learnt it the hard way. There are some people who have not faced any issue but majority are having problems from all the posts that I have read. So my advise would be please follow the instructions of the OP word to word. Cheers
[General Questions and Answers] diyasting:
I have flashed XXALJ4 base rom but still got the sim errors. I think it appears whenever you get zero signal bars; Luckily for me, I live in an area where I'll get frequent zero bars which means I'm screwed with this ROM if I don't move. Might try this custom ROM out for at least a day then go back to stock if things don't work out. Sadly, KOR gave me more problems on it's first hour than 3 months on a rooted stock Rom. ;_;
[General Questions and Answers] kushd:
Yes, It works

I'm sure. I have Ubuntu 13.04 installed and whenever I connect the device to laptop it mounts Internal and external sdCard separately.

Can u tell me the performance after the rom ......is there any bugs in this rom...???
[General Questions and Answers] kushd:
Rom is very fast and smooth but latest v3 kernel has bugs.

I'm using latest KyleOPEN ROM v3.0.0 Release. It is very fast and smooth. But the kernel with this ROM is creating bootloops in most of the Indian devices including mine. So I had to flash KyleOPEN Kernel v5

Apart from that if you install Crossbreeder, Project butter and any app for overclocking than the phone becomes amazingly fast and smooth.
[General Questions and Answers] diyasting:
Hey kushd, you think flashing Kernel v5 would fix my problems? I'm not experiencing bootloops but a lot of random reboots.
[General Questions and Answers] kushd:
Sure! It would.

I had the same problem of random reboots with KOR v3.beta1 but after flashing kernel v5 it got fixed. Go ahead.

Now my question is, if at all after i root my mobile and then unroot it does the information will be known to the service centre.?

One of my friend informed me that if i root my mobile and unroot it the warranty of my mobile gets expire, is that true.?

Please provide me the information asap so that i can approach nearby service center and then proceed for my warranty extension via rooting / unrooting procedure or by purchasing the warranty.

[General Questions and Answers] einst31n:
See this is not so simple. By simply unrooting you will lose the root. These are the 3 things which can make the service centre guys know that u had your device rooted :

1. Still having root

2. Yellow triangle on the boot screen - this is because of custom firmware. If you have not flashed any firmware and are on stock recovery then that yellow triangle will go away.

3. Binary count is more than zero- you can.check this on your download mode screen. This flash count is increased when.you flash a custom recovery, kernel etc.

4. Device status is modified and not normal - you can find this in settings/about.

I think all of these can be removed by chainfire's triangle away app. But not in all cases. If any of the above is present, the service centre wont give you the benefits of warranty.

Flashed KyleOpen ROM 3.0

Hello,

yesterday I have flashed KyleOpen ROM 3.0 to my s7562 and my experience is this:

- bootloop appeared, so I flashed "safe" kernel with Odin and then it is OK.

- the device was showing "Exchange has stopped" and "E-mail has stopped" message

- the E-mail crashed after starting app and the browser too

To fix browser and email - go to settings - applications - tap "all" tab, find browser, email and exchange and delete data for this apps. It will delete emails stored on devide and in browser history, cookies etc. If you have IMAP, email will simply download your mails from server when you start app first time.

Overal:

- The device is definitely smoother, especially in launcher, but you cannot expect miracles. This is not S4.

- I think "sensitivity" patch is not in "safe" kernel, shame for me... :-/

- I miss calendar widgets, they are part of TouchWiz, so say goodbye to them.

- I miss also memo app, so I downloaded substitute from Play.

- I am surprised that my data was not wiped in the process of applying firmware.

- Unexpected bonus: 3G data transfers are super fast in contrast to stock firmware.

So thanks to cheatman for this ROM and I hope he will buy new Duos and continue in his work - he bricked it while experimenting. :-/ I'll try to send him few bucks for his work.
[General Questions and Answers] mohit.bhagat1:
Thanks...can u please tell me the bug list of this rom ...lags???
[General Questions and Answers] xvasek2:
Bugs:

- bootloop with shipped kernel

- CM9 browser has a white strip on top when scrolling down (screenshots can be found at KOR thread)

- missing translation in Trebuchet settings and in some apps (if this can be considered as bug)

- unable to install original calendar widget (I think it is a part of TouchWiz launcher, which I definitely do not want back :)

- unable to install original notes .apk - it requires some TouchWiz packages, I think

Lags come mostly when using remainig Samsung software - in phone app, when going to contacts, when starting messages app, clock app, original gallery app (I have installed it back to change background of lockscreen), starting camera app etc.

In all theese cases - it was the same or worse with stock firmware, so it is not a downgrade of any kind. For example the camera app starts in in half time comparing to original FW, so it is far better, then sock FW, but it still takes about 5 secs to start, which can be still considered as lag.

Nothing really serious, I think.

[General Questions and Answers] xvasek2:
Works, but I can't compare to stock firmware now.

Really, there are two main differences using KOR:

- You have a superfast launcher and some stock apps (browser, gallery...)

- You have a lot more free memory, now I have about 100MB free with normal usage (about 5 apps running - opera browser, talk, email, S-calendar, ...), with stock firmware I had only about 10 - 20 MB in similar situation, so every time I wanted to start app, OOM killer had to kill something and it took time.

Do not expect double framerates or something similar.
[General Questions and Answers] xvasek2:
mohit.bhagat1, after playing subway surfers for a while, I understood your question. :) There are two problems:

- Bad framerate

- Bad sensitivity, when phone sometimes undestands swipe as a touch, which is deadly in surfers

The kernel shipped with KOR 3.0 resolves both problems - CPU is overclocked to 1,3GHz and there is cheatman's sensitivity patch in it. My problem is, that my device does not want to run with KOR 3.0 kernel (bootloop). Safe kernel does not have sensitivity patch and experimental sensitivity kernel (can be found in KOR thread) does not support OC, so my device can be "sensitive" _or_ overclocked. But if yours can run KOR 3.0 kernel, you can have both problems resolved.

Hope this helps. :)
