Does anyone has problem with the WIFI dropping out when the screen goes off? This one is bothering me. While the phone just sit there with scrreen off, I pickup it up and realize the app has logoff. When i am on a call with the phone next to my ear, the screen goes off, and then eventually i would loose voice. I tried turning on both wake lock options, that didn't help. what does work is to enable the keep screen on option, but then my face is touching the screen buttons. anyone have the problem or solution?
[Nexus 4 General] billteeth:
Go to settings, troubleshooting, and check High Perf WiFi Lock.
[Nexus 4 General] curena:
These settings work best for the end listener I've found.

Adaptive Echo Canceler

Post Processing

Echo Tail: Auto

Speaker Volume: 0

Microphone Volume: -8

Audio Processing: On

Worked on both WiFi and 3G/4G.

Also had to turn High Perf WiFi Lock on.

I had some issues with the speaker volume being to loud. Tried to bring it down but this effected the outcall quality so left the speaker volume at 0.
[Nexus 4 General] beckyricha:
other app issue?

I was here looking for settings and saw this. I know it's old but in case others have this issue, have you tried stopping other background apps and processes? I found that neither of these apps would let me answer the phone even though they appeared to be otherwise working when utter was running in the background in always listening mode. Not sure why but when I stopped it everything was great. So, some other apps might just interfere.

Thinking of buying one of these now that Google lowered the cost. Love GrooveIP. Anyone have the T-Mobile 4G Hotspot? Curious how well Groove works through it. My Nexus 7 is just a bit bulky for real phone use (and it's all I have).
[Nexus 4 General] vcast009:
I'm using Groove IP on the Nexus 4 with 4G LTE enabled and it works well enough where the other caller doesn't notice a difference.

So I'm happy to say that I'll be hopping on the bandwagon and getting an Optimus G this friday. As of right now I have the S3. Ill be trading my stepsister for it. Any of you guys switch from the s3 to this? Anything you miss? What's better about it?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] latindor17:
There are a few people here who switched from the S3, not me, but welcome to the community :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aooga:
Just a poll. Just downloaded google maps on iOS and it is AMAZING. It looks really polished and feels really smooth. My question is does it look better than the Android one? Pick a side! :)

If you dont have an iOS device (which is probably most everyone here :)), here are some screenshots:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aooga:
Why yes! Are you?

No really....it does look really nice in my opinion. Not saying that the android one is bad, it works just as well. Its just Google did a good job on the iOS app. No need to hate. :good:

I don't know why Google gave them turn by turn navigation. I read before that was the reason apple made their own maps; because Google would not include navigation for free after spending so much money into their mapping software.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
I think Google is playing a bigger picture, where they want everyone to use and custom to their Map app. Basically they said, there is only one map for mobil phones and tablets and it's GOOGLE MAP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] db4d1988:
Think of all the iPhone users out there. They would be losing a huge base of they didn't do this. Remember the old saying.. "keep your friends close but your enemies closer."
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DroidOnRoids:
I don't know how this poll can be conducted if the majority of members here are Galaxy S3 users who most likely don't have an iPhone. Furthermore, I don't see any reason for this to be here. Who cares.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eman3316@optonline.net:
In this case, Google might start losing their friends.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dwyw42:
The explanation I heard was that Apple was making the map app with Google data, but Google's licenses with their map data providers prohibited them from sharing real-time turn by turn direction data with third parties.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KentuckyHouse:
One of the reasons I sold my iPhone 4S was because Apple Maps were awful. Now that Google has released their Maps app for iOS, I might be willing to pick up another iPhone in the future (but I'd never go strictly iPhone...I'll always have an Android-based phone).

I'm a little ticked that Google admits the iOS version is "better" than the Android version, although it wouldn't surprise me to see an update in the Play Store soon to bring the Android version in line with the iOS version. Still, you'd think they'd do that BEFORE releasing it to iOS, if for no other reason than to not piss off their base of Android users.

While it's a smart move for Google overall (to re-widen their base of Google Maps users to include iPhone users again), it's not exactly showing the biggest girth of loyalty to people that have adopted their platform. I hope they'll fix that soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aooga:
I think the reason is because they know the Android people have no intention of switching, but they know that the iPhone people might be willing to switch. Its sort of ironic really...they are trying to get them to switch, but make an awesome maps on the iphone.

And I posted this here because I know a lot of people who have ipads and Androids, so i thought at least some people would have an ios device. Second of all, i put screenshots in the OP. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Tk1917:
Not sure if it had anything to do with third parties. Google wanted full control of the app, with their name on it. When apple refused, Google then refused to supply extra features like turn by turn and street view.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ECrispy:
New Maps and Gmail look better on iOS. Google is testing out the new UI there first and I hope it comes to Android fast.

On online forums deluded iFans are now claiming this is another reason to choose iPhone since it has better maps - how stupid can they get??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aooga:
Wow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ECrispy:
Also Google made sure their new Maps runs on all iPhones and iOS versions. Not like Apple with their lies and forcing people to buy a new phone just to get new features in software. And Google is helping users on a competitor. When was the last time Apple helped anyone? They even laugh at their own user's problems.

I wish Google had taken this opportunity to poke some fun at Apple and ridicule their crap software in iOS. It would be a good way to increase Android share.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blestsol:
So Google gave apple the updated maps first? No matter what.. Apple always gets stuff first lol. Even when it comes to Google.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mutelight:
The maps app for iOS looks fantastic.

This is a similar move that Google made with Google+ where they released the new UI and improvements on iOS first and then moved it over to Android after. The reason for it is most likely the smaller pool of supported resolutions and hardware.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aooga:
Yeah i really hope they do. It would look great on our bigger screen. The gmail one also looks nice too, but I'm fine with android gmail too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mutelight:
Yeah, the added real estate would make it look great but the iPhone 5 has a stunning screen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aooga:
Well, it depends what you like. I like over saturated colors, especially with the bright colors of touchwiz and ios. Others might like true to life colors...opinions, opinions.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mutelight:
Oh absolutely. I just have very sensitive eyes and can see the PenTile matrix in my S3. I really wish it used full RGB like the Note II.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] surf1:
Downloaded as well, really really nice, smooth and sharp. I liked Google maps on Android better then pos iOS Maps... but Google did an amazing job with iOS GMaps. It's just so polished, now why they did that and not Android version not sure, hopefully they update ours to that same "polished"-ness, ours is very good no doubt, but use the new iOS version and you can tell a difference easily.

iOS Maps sucked, incorrect directions constantly (fiances phone), missing streets and roads etc, it wold tell you to turn left or right when there was no left or right turn lol, and I live in FL, not like it's middle of no where lol. I had paid for Navigon so she used that instead.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] I_TerraBull:
Yea much better. Almost takes away one of the primary advantages the S3 has over iphone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hulk0069:
The iPhone may have adapted maps.but there's no way there going to get nfc/beam...maybe on the next one iPhone 5s

My cousin has the iPhone 5 I still like maps on mine, (gs3)and my nav pulls up faster.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] smoke451:
I have noticed the framerate (running on the iPhone 5) when zooming in and out, panning, etc is quite a bit lower than the Android maps app, or even the old IOS Google apps map. They will probably improve it in future versions though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BoLTroid:
Damnit

This was one of the many reasons I chose the S3 to replace my Droid X rather than the iPhone 5 (which is what my wife wanted me to get).

I'm still extremely and over the top happy with my S3 over the iPhone 5, but this was the big bragging right I was walking around with saying that on my phone the Maps feature was so much better.

Bleh, there goes my bragging rights. Oh well. I still got other ones I can claim. (Swiftkey Flow / Swiftkey X) being one of them. :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] slufa111:
Why do people even use GoogleMaps? Waze for the win.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] funnyperson1:
What a lot of you guys don't seem to realize is that Google doesn't make any money selling Android devices. Android is only valuable to them as a platform for their services where they can monetize ads. An iOS user who uses Google Maps, Voice Search, Google+, etc. is more valuable to them than an Android user that doesn't use those services.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hulk0069:

I did a search but did not exactly what I wanted.

Have a few questions in mind:

1.Can I Flash any custom Rom with my stock kernel?

2.Will doing the above cause any problems?(brick,bootloops,buggy rom)

3.Also unlocking the bootloader(is it necessary?Please a Noob here)via the official method(sk17i)I heard we would loose access to certain company features(track.id etc)would I loose access to official update of firmware from them?

4.Most of the Rom's featured here have not specified which kernel to be used with them could anyone suggest one which can handle most Rom's?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
Please read the sticked threads, everything should be explained there :)

1. Yes, custom roms for locked bootloader

2. It can cause bricks or bootloops, roms where something's not working can be buggy

3. Unlocking the bootloader is necessary for nearly all custom roms like Cyanogenmod, AOKP, etc. You will loose your DRM (who needs them?) and track id won't work, but if you download the latest version it should work! You can't update via PC Companion, but you can flash official updates using flashtool :good:

4. All the kernels like Rage Kernel, kernel panic, x kernel, if you look in the kernel thread there should be explained for which software version they are...

That's it, but should be explained in the sticked thread, too ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] gamer.11:
But if done properly they would run properly right?:confused: Without Bricking the device? :confused:Also should I be in ICS(stock) to install any ICS Roms(custom)? Or does the requirements for each Rom different?

I did find some locked BL Roms Thanks:good:(Sticky Threads)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Saqib Nazm:
Yes if u do it properly as instructed there should be no problem..U dont need to be in ICS to flash ICS custom roms. Just read the instruction properly in the rom threads
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
He should be on ics to flash ics custom roms, because otherwise you could get a bootloop :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] gamer.11:
A bit too late. How to fix the loop? Should I use flashtool to flash the stock rom?:crying:

Or should I use the Sony PC companion to "repair it"

(Note I'm in stock Kernal With root, So will doing it via Sony PC cause more problems?Also since I have root will I be able to use the official updates and Repair options?)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] k_taresh:
i would suggest u nt to use Sony PC companion after rooting, unlocking BL as FOTA updates may brick ur device

(when u unlock BL its quoted there that not to do FOTA update after unlocking BL)

I dont know it brick device or nt bt why take risk?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Abhinav1997:
Did u make a cwm backup??? If yes just restore it or flash the official ftf using flashtool....

Have I officially BRICKED my device? is there any way to get back to the good old GB and stock Rom?:crying::crying::crying:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] SS-4050:
Use Flashtool, Flash the Stock FTF and all should be come good again :)

Wow, so I've got a weird problem now.

First up, the problem: I flashed CWM using Odin and everything was successful, but when I do the Vol-Up, Home, Power keydance it still fires up the Stock Recovery. I can't figure out how to get ClockWorkMod Recovery to "stick" and fire up.

Secondly, the back-story: I was running a rooted stock ROM for many weeks, then the 4.1 update kept nagging and nagging, so I went back to a stock recovery. I did the 4.1 update, and then it did the 4.1.1 update. Along the way I lost root (fully expected this). Now, I'm trying to re-root my device, and I get the issue previously described.

I'm not very new at this, I've been flashing ROMs since 2007 with my old HTC Apache WM6 phone. I'm comfortable with ADB, Odin, Recoveries, ROMs, Kernels, etc...but this has me baffled.

Any help is really appreciated.

Thanks,

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Hung0702:
Hey guys. I've used Irfanview to resize the attached PNGs (they are zoom buttons, to be placed in framework-res.apk) but I haven't been able to resize them without messing up the transparency. Technically, I'm upsampling them, which seems to be ok. My only problem is that I don't know how to change the settings such that I can keep the transparency base, but have the "-" and "+" opaque. It ends up being completely transparent and impossible to see on a bright background.

Could anyone upsample them for me? They are 64x64 and it'd be nice to have 128x128. Also, could you provide me some details on what settings you used to save them?

I got it done much more easily than I assumed, using pixlr. I attached the images in another post, if you care to use them in your own ROM. Just replace the identically named files in your framework-res.apk/res/drawable-xhdpi, clear the dalvik and general cache, and you should be good.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ASAPSEVEN:
Ok guys my transformer prime is now unlocked and rooted with TWRP recovery running stock jelly bean with build # 10.4.2.17. Now can i just flash ROMs and KERNELS through recovery (TWRP) or do i have to flash boot images first using FASTBOOT?

the reason im asking is because if your not S-OFF on the HTC EVO 4G LTE you would have to flash the boot images through FASTBOOT. Then flash the ROM or KERNEL.

so is it the same for the transformer prime TF201? because i wanna start flashing ASAP! lol :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
You didn't even need the root part first. Just flash away in TWRP.

Fastboot is normally only used to flash a recovery like twrp.

Is there a ROM that you recommend?

I've tried several times to switch from ATT voicemail service to GV and it fails, even after rooting (not sure that matters, but ).

It (GV) shows up as an option, but attempts to switch fail.

Anyone know of a solution?
[HTC One X+] Dazrin:
I had to manually enter the codes into the handset. Not sure why it didn't work automatically, but it is easy to do manually. Just go to google voice in your browser then under settings there is an activate google voice on this phone link which gives you the correct things to dial in order to set it up.
[HTC One X+] bigdave79:
I just made the switch to Google voicemail after I couldn't get AT&T's visual voicemail to work on the phone. Had to enter all the forwarding numbers manually as above.

In the GV app there is an option to integrate voicemail into the system dialer (View and play voicemails from the call log). That particular feature doesn't seem to be supported by the HTC dialer app, only by AOSP dialers. Does anyone know of a workaround or a way to get this integrated?

Which visual voicemail are you guys talking about? Have you tried this one? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2018018

or are you talkin about the one that comes stock on the phone? This will work, you just have to call ATT and have them make sure Visual Voice mail is provisioned for your account. It is not there by default. THe stock ATT messages app (which has a crappy VVM) doesnt require additional provisions, but the VVM.apk above does. Here is another thread in the regular ATT HOX forum that has more info. I've tried both, and the VVM is way better than google voice. It's worth the time to call ATT, maybe more than once, to get VVM working. I ended up calling 3 times. Low level customer support does not have a clue..Once i got to a real tech, they had it done in 45 seconds. Hope this helps. Good luck!
