AOSP doesn't support AVRCP 1.13 which is the version that introduced metadata support. Until it does, custom ROMs the devs have added it to are the only one's that'll display song/album/artist.

Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP)

This profile is designed to provide a standard interface to control TVs, Hi-fi equipment, etc. to allow a single remote control (or other device) to control all of the A/V equipment to which a user has access. It may be used in concert with A2DP or VDP.

It has the possibility for vendor-dependent extensions.

AVRCP has several versions with significantly increasing functionality:

1.0—Basic remote control commands (play/pause/stop, etc.)

1.3—all of 1.0 plus metadata and media-player state support The status of the music source (playing, stopped, etc.)

Metadata information on the track itself (artist, track name, etc.).

1.4—all of 1.0, 1.3, plus media browsing capabilities for multiple media players Browsing and manipulation of multiple players

Browsing of media metadata per media player, including a "Now Playing" list

Basic search capabilities​

As far as I know, no n4 custom rom supports it until today. Google will most likely never update it, don't know what the heck they are thinking.
[Nexus 4 General] MasterJam882:
it's such an elementary feature. Can't believe it's not integrated....This really makes me mad.
[Nexus 4 General] alternetconcept:
What do you mean no custom ROM supports it?

I was waiting for someone to confirm if AVRCP 1.3 was going to be added in android 4.2.2 but now I'm planning on rooting and getting a ROM that does support this...
[Nexus 4 General] jc monkeyballs:

Its no wonder companies ignore their users when they needlessly and wrongly report bugs for something which is clearly not a bug.

If I was Google I'd ignore every single bug report which was actually reporting a missing feature.

For whatever reason, Google left it out, probably because its a niche requirement. It's not a bug.

thank god ur not google ;)

maybe it's not the right category but at least I did something to point out that there's a problem and gave other ppl the chance to express their madness about this problem aswell.

And a niche? C'mon this is absolute standard nowadays and we can expect this from a 2012 smartphone when even my 2010 i9000 had it!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktetreault14:
I have a s3 for T-Mobile and up until a few weeks ago I would always get H+ and when I would look in the settings>status>mobile network type I would have hspap:15 or UMTS:3 for 3G. Now I am only getting 3G/H or HSDPA:9, and when I was on an AOSP rom I would get HSDPA:8 instead of the full H+. Also my speeds are letting them average and my ping time. My network also keeps turning off and then back on randomly. I was wondering if anyone knew of this problem and knew how to fix it.. I already factory reset, Odin to stock, and completely redone everything. I don't know if it helps but I live in Saint Petersburg, Florida. It is right next to Tampa

And did your solve your problem? Because I am experiencing the same symptoms.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dave2metz:
I live in Clearwater, FL and I'm using 4.2.2 Illusion Rom. My speeds are usually pretty decent, but I do fluctuate between the H & H+. When I lived in Minneapolis, I would always get hspa42. Not sure why I don't see this anymore. Maybe it's from always flashing AOSP/AOKP Roms. I'd like some information as well. Peace
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Cezar`:
I dont fluctuate between H and H+. For about 2 months I lost H+ completely on ANY rom (AOSP and Touchwiz) and on any modem that i was previously using and getting H+. It does seem to be the same issue as the OP had, that's why i revived this old thread. All my friends that have the i9300 have the H+ symbol and getting up to 15-20Mbit download.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Clearwater may not have been "modernized" yet. Even if they rolled out LTE there, doesnt mean they have upgraded to HSPA +42 also. The fluctuation is perfectly normal.

Are you guys checking the Network Type in Settings > About Device > Status, while a download is running? These phones are intended to drop to 2g/3g while idle. (hence the changing back and forth in the status bar. This part is rom dependant though. some will, some wont)

What does it say for Network Type while Idle? While downloading? What model is your phone?

In Settings > More Settings > Wireless and Networks > Mobile Networks, is Network Mode set to GSM/WCDMA (Auto Mode)? Is the APN set to fast.tmobile.com?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dito33:
My is epc.tmobile.com should I change it.

Sent from my SGH-T999
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
You can try it. I assume it'll only make a difference where LTE and HSPA+42 has been deployed, but I could be wrong.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dave2metz:
My phone shows UMTS when idle and HSPA+ when downloading or in use. I have my APN set at epc.tmobile.com. Although I have heard that some people are getting better data speed using fast.t-mobile.com. I can't really tell the difference. About 90% of the time I have my network mode set at GSM/WCDMA Preferred. But in my apartment I have really spotty coverage, so I often switch over to LTE/WCDMA Preferred. This seems to get a much stronger H+ signal for some reason. It's kind of a lot of screwing around to get a decent signal.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Have you tried other modems? These do affect signal strength as well as data speeds.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Cezar`:
What solved it for me was a restore of efs.... Yeah, I went ahead and restored the efs partition i had backed up when i bought the phone. H+ is now back. I believe some ROM/Modem must have changed some information in the efs limiting me to 8MBit/sec download on any network. Funny what flashing stock ROMs for different regions can do :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I am assuming you have the I9300. But I imagine this will apply to you anyway.

As I understand it, regardless of what you flash, (roms, kernels, modems, etc), your nv data seems to be easily corrupted. Hence the problem we have with IMEI loss, and I am guessing it was also the cause of your problem as well, since restoring your nv backup fixed it.

The way this works, (again, as I understand it....), or at least is supposed to work, is when any corruption of nv data is detected, the system will automatically restore it during boot up. The problem apparently is that when the phones ship out from the factory, they do not have the On-Device backup created, so all values are essentially zero. So when it auto restores, this is why so many IMEI's become 0.

I am guessing that yours probably was corrupted somewhat, but went undetected because everything was still functioning.....for the most part.

I hope this is making sense!

You may or may not already know, but there is a way to create this missing backup. It backs up your nv data across multiple partitions and as I mentioned, if corruption is detected, it will automatically restore this backup during boot up, and you wont even know anything ever happened!

I know this works on the US GS3's, and I am assuming it will be the same on your international model, if thats what you have. Anyway, this is what you do if you want to try it out.

Open Terminal Emulator and enter the following:

su

reboot nvbackup

The device will reboot and create the nv backup. Normally you would not have to do a manual restore, but it seems this would have been the case for you. To restore the backup, enter this in Terminal Emulator:

su

reboot nvrestore

Please bear in mind, that some of this info may not be 100% complete, and I am relaying it to you as I believe it works. I could be off on some things, but I am fairly sure my information is accurate.

Afaik, not one person who did this backup has suffered IMEI loss or any other nv data issues.

Just thought I'd pass this on to you in case you did not already know about it. Again, this may be different for the I9300, but I have a feeling it would apply just the same as it does for the T999 and other American devices.:cowboy:

I hope that helps!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Cezar`:
Good tip. Thanks.

I do not think there was a corruption in the nv_data.bin. My belief is that one of the radios I flashed in the past 10 months changed the efs data in such a way that the maximum speed on mobile networks stay under 8Mbit/s. There are many reasons why a career would want such a change so that's why I decided to restore the efs from backup from a time I was certain I had HSPA+.

A corruption often results in instability or a plain dead device which was not the case - phone was stable, network transmission as well, no calls dropped, no net disconnects.

But, all in all, you gave me a very good tip. My question now is: is there somewhere a list of boot modes for the SGS3? Or a list of "reboot ****" examples?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
You may very well be correct in all of that. Much of what I said relating to your device was assumption. One of the first things we learned about the device though was that much of the nv data was no longer stored just on efs, as it was in the past. This is why it was so hard to find a solution to our lost imei issues at first. Some is on efs, some on modemst1/2, etc.

I am not aware of a list or even how (or who) the reboot command was even discovered. I would love to have both bits of info though! If I ever find out ill definitely post about it, but I'm no longer actively seeking it out tbh.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktetreault14:
would i be able to use someones backup because sadly the problem still exists although my mom has the phone now, and i did not make a backup :(
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Well, you probably could, but i am quite confident that there is device specific information other than just the imei. Im just not entirely sure if there would or wouldn't be any negative effects on either the donor or receiving device.

Do you get the same results in other locations at least several miles away? If not it could be the tower you're connecting to. You might also want to take a look at my modem thread, in particular, the build.prop values I go over there.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktetreault14:
It has been like this since i started this thread. I'm not exactly sure what info is contained. I wish i could just odin to stock
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Remind me around Friday or Saturday and ill try to get you a backup. Ive got a blacklisted S3 motherboard I can swap out and make one from it. Id do it sooner but im kinda swamped at the moment.

Just remember to shoot me a PM about it. Otherwise ill probably forget!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktetreault14:
Thanks man definitely: D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktetreault14:
Hey man. Forgot about this. Still think you could do the backup for me.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Unfortunately, I cannot anymore. My phone is broken, so I have no way to do this now. No idea when I will be able to get it fixed either. Sorry... Ill try to see if I have something stored in some of my old backups when I get the chance. I don't know if I will find anything though as it may have been on my old computer which totally died. Will let you know.

Feel free to ask me again in a couple of days. But go ahead and just PM me as I said before. This isn't something that can be posted in the forums.

Pardon me if there is already a thread for this. However, I couldn't find a helpful one. Please let me know if there is one.

I bought an HTC Desire with CID VODAP001. I have boatloader that says "Relocked" and S-ON and hboot is 2.xxxxxxx and it is running ICS 4.0.4 at the moment

I want to downgrade my hboot to 0.98.xxxx to gain S-Off. However, I don't know how exactly should I do that to downgrade my branded DS. I have RUU_Saga_Vodafone_UK_1.32.161.1_Radio_20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.15_M_release_179398_signed.exe with me. I also have extracted PG88IMG.Zip out of this RUU. I also know how to create a Goldcard.

However, I am unsure whether I should run RUU.exe (hboot 0.98.xxxx) directly or create a Goldcard and put that PG88IMG.Zip in SD Card (remember my phone is S-ON) and boot into bootloader or would either of these methods will be wrong?

Please let me know. Help would much appreciated :good:

Cheers
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
1) Unlock again (via HtcDev)

2) Flash a Custom recovery (like 4EXT to have a root adb shell)

3) Reboot to recovery, connect to PC and use the misc_version (you can find it in any of the downgrade guides in the Index thread) Change the version to something below 1.32.161.1. For example 1.27.161.1

4) Reboot to bootloader and relock it (fastboot oem lock)

5) Run the RUU.exe while connected to the PC (you can do it the bootloader, just be sure that there is FASTBOOT USB written on the screen of the device)

6) When flashing is done wait for the OS to load, go to the Developer Settings and enable ADB Debugging. Disable the fastboot option in the Power Settings

7) Use Revolutionary

8) Download and install the 4EXT Recovery updater app. Use it to flash the latest touch version of the Recovery (trust me on this). You will need root for this, so do it after you flash a custom ROM

9) Do whatever you want with your freshly S-OFF'ed device :)

Re: Downgrade Hboot 2.xxxxx of a Branded Desire S

Thanks for writing back mate. However, let me request you to elaborate step# 3 (Change the version to something below 1.32.161.1. For example 1.27.161.1

And step# 8) Download and install the 4EXT Recovery updater app from market?
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
The RUU will fail to flash on everything with higher that its own version. Which in your case is 1.32.161.1. So we have to trick the RUU to think that it is flashed over software with the same or lower version. This is achieved by the misc_version binary.

But in your case you are running the ICS software which has a version of 14.01.401.2 (11 symbols). The misc_version binary will replace only the symbols that you give it so for 1.32.161.1 it will replace 10 symbols. So the following will happen:

14.01.401.2

1.32.161.1

-------------

1.32.161.12 -> the resulting version will be higher! And the RUU will refuse to flash

Setting a lower number will produce a lower version (as per the example above it will be 1.27.161.12), the RUU will detect a lower version, although with more symbols and will flash successfully.
