[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobross82:
Hello,

I will try to keep this short. Was running 4.1.1 and rooted with moto2fail and installed safestrap recovery then I made a stock backup.

One day, my camera quit working (camera screen loads then a box pops up saying unfortunately, the camera has stopped) Anyways, I cleared data, rebooted same results. I didn't want to mess around with any files, so I decided to update to 4.1.2.

After the update, i get message that the update failed but everything seemed to be fine. AND the camera started working again.. Ending up losing root in the process, motochopper appears to install fine, but I get an error message when trying to update supersu. So, I reverted back to my 4.1.1 backup through the rp(?) tools in the stock recovery.

So now I'm back to 4.1.1 with full root, but no working camera. I can update to 4.1.2, but I think I'm gonna have problems with rooting again.

I did try reinstalling the stock MotCamera.apk from a stock razr m 4.1.1 rip. but it still fails. How can I fix the camera issues without having to mess around rsd lite?

Sorry about the confusion, just trying to lay out my issues and I will answer questions as I can.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirccchar:
i'm having the exact same issue, after failing to update to 4.1.2, i restored to 4.1.1 backup i had, but the camera just force closes. i'm on stock room.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cybrnook:
It could be that the Update has updated the firmware of the Camera itself, causing it to now be incompatible with the older 4.1.1 drivers baked in.

Typically when I get into these types of scenarios, I always feel best doing something along the lines of an RSDlite wipe and start fresh. Do the update straight, then customize afterwards.

I would unlock your bootloader prior to guarantee you have a back door into the phone afterwards.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirccchar:
I can't rsd back to 4.1.1, i get a preflash verification error, the only thing that works is matt's new utility that flashes to 4.1.2, the camera works after that, but i want the camera to work on the backup I did when i was on 4.1.1 before the update.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobross82:
I ended up booting in stock recovery by trying to get into fast boot, then selecting ap or rp tools(can't remember which). Truthfully, didn't even realize what it was. It loaded up what to me looked like the recovery menu with safestrap. Which I thought I uninstalled. From there, i restored the 4.1.1 backup I had. Then updated superuser and supersu from the play store. read in another thread to check and uncheck temp unroot in voodoo ota. twice.

Then I took the 4.1.2 update, was then able to install the supersu binary once it was finished and checked, and it kept root through the update. Camera works also. I still received a update fail message afterwards. But all appears to be okay, camera works, root checker says I have root, so all appears to be good.

I did make a backup of this in safestrap, and updated my backups in titanium, and froze a bunch of apps. Everything seems to be working just fine. I haven't unlocked the bootloader because I don't really feel like flashing any roms to this phone. Stock rom and rooted seems to be be good enough for me. For now.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RikRong:
If you still have a locked bootloader, you can't revert back without having issues. Once you've installed 4.1.2 and its boot.img, you shouldn't be able to restore a 4.1.1 ROM. If you are unlocked, then it's a different story.

For the OP, the best solution is to use Matt's Utility 1.20 and fastboot flash to 4.1.2. This utility does not require the use of RSD. After you flash, boot up the phone and just do basic setup, then use the Motochopper function in the utility to get root access. After you get root, then continue set up on the phone.

Hi,

I want to go back to ICS rooted and after flashing root66.stock_Bell_I747MVLALH1 with Odin the phone reboot and is stuck with the Samsung animated logo.

I did it a few months ago and it went fine but JB was not rooted.

I flashed JB rooted with Odin and the phone works fine. I just cant seems to go back to ICS.

Any tips ?

Thank you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
flash ICS with odin again. untick the auto reboot option. after you get a pass, unplug the phone and pull the battery. replace the battery and boot into recovery mode. wipe data, wipe cache and reboot. you should be all set

Anybody else using Google Voice on the HTC One? No matter what options I choose, when I call people my new T-Mobile number shows up instead of the Google Voice one. It ignores the "Use Google Voice to make all calls" option.. Any Ideas?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Du22ty:
I don't know if it's related to your problem but every time I try and switch to Google voice I get the error

"Failed to retrieve and save current forwarding number settings. Do you want to switch to the new provider anyway?"

I hit yes and then I get the error

"Forwarding numbers change unsuccessful. Please contact your carrier if this problem persists."
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] psufan5:
Have you gone to the website, blown out your number there, then setup the phone again?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ebaychuck:
Yes. There is that error too.. To get around that you can manually set up the Voicemail number by using *004*[phone number]#. I believe you have to turn WI-Fi off for it to work.

I think you can also call T-Mobile and give them your voicemail number to set up.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jlczl:
When I call out my Google number shows up fine.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ebaychuck:
Do you call out from the built-in dialer or from Google Voice. Mine shows when I call from Google Voice but not from the integrated dialer.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jlczl:
From the built in dialer.

Just a note that when I dial without an area code it doesn't show my Google number, it'll show my TMo number. It's been like that with previous phones too though.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ebaychuck:
Wow.. I think that was the issue. My old phone must have been adding my area code. I guess I'll have to add area codes to some contacts or find the option to do it for me.

Thanks for your help.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] dinamael:
I also did this, and it works insofar as missed calls ARE now forwarded to Google Voice. However, my phone still uses "My carrier" as the Voicemail service in Settings and, unfortunately, I don't get any notifications from Google Voice for new VMs.

Not sure if there's any relation, but I can't even set up my T-Mobile Visual Voicemail. It just times out, and tech support said "known error, try back in a few days". :confused:
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ebaychuck:
Mine says the same thing in the Voicemail settings but as far as I know it works fully. I have gotten voicemail notifications from the Google Voice app.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] mmor101:
I'm having the same issue in call settings. I cannot switch from "my carrier" to "google voice" without an error. Google voicemail works properly but I don't get a real notification. I have it setup now so ill just get a text message.

EDIT: got it! I just uninstalled and started all back over again.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] EtherealRemnant:
This has been going on for awhile now... I have the same issue on my S3. The MMI code doesn't even work, it errors out. T-Mobile has manually set it and it still doesn't work. The only time that Google Voice picks up instead of my T-Mobile voicemail is if they call my Google number AND I don't send it to voicemail but let it ring out (otherwise it goes to T-Mobile voicemail). Frustrating as hell.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Stargazer418:
I was able to fix it by setting all the numbers in the Call Forwarding settings to my Google Voice number. It still says "My carrier" in the call settings, but missed calls forward to my GV voicemail and I get a notification.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] EtherealRemnant:
Thank you for that, I never thought to try that. It worked great!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ebern220:
Have you tried going on GV, disabling past phones, and activating the new one? There is an option where you will enter a code (do it without wifi calling on) which is like **044*GOOGLEVOICENUMBER#

It will send a code to fix the forwarding. Did that and had no issues, it's under the settings option if you log on to GV..
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Benjimang:
ive been having the same trouble
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] SmiLey497:
Pre-paid T-Mobile customers can't use GV for voicemail because there is no call forwarding.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] 2real2141:
[QUOcancelTE=Benjimang;40823987]ive been having the same trouble[/QUOTE]

This is what worked for me. This informing following info was found in a Tmobile forum. The 1st step likely isn't necessary but was done during my stumbling to a solution.

1. **004*1(Google voice number) #

Again that part may not be necessary.

2. **61*1( Google voice number) #

This command forward calls if no reply

3. **62*1( Google voice number) #

This command forwards calls if not reachable

4. **67*1(Google voice number) #

This command forwards calls when busy.

Note: to check status of forwarding use the following commands .

*#61#

*#62#

*#67#

To cancel forwarding use the following commands .

##61#

##62#

##67#

The following command changes forwarding delay.

Also,it is untested by me so I'm not certain if the forwarding number should be changed to the Google voice number or left as is try at your own risk.

**61*18056377249**seconds#

(For example, 5, 10, 15, etc.)
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] kmahan:
I found on the T-mobile forums that the way to fix this is manually set the call forwarding settings to your google voice number. That has worked for me and so for no issues. Pretty sure dialing the ** numbers is what the Call forwarding menu does in the background.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] knurdle:
Seems to me like google voice doesn't work with wifi calling.

It's weird, seems like when I'm on wifi and someone calls me, it goes into a loop.

It'll ring on my phone, caller will get call forwarded but it seems to forward back to my phone so it rings back again.

Has anyone gotten google voice working with wifi calling?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] CJohnson1073:
Before seeing your post I activated my Google Voicemail by doing the *004*xxx-xxx-xxxx# and everything worked perfectly. All the call forwarding was activated automatically without having to do each one separately. T-Mobile's visual voice mail is ok but I prefer my messages to be emailed to me when I can't answer the phone.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] calliso5:
I've done this, and it works! However, for some reason after an "unknown" period of time it reverted back to the T-Mobile number. Any ideas why or how this might happen? I love google voice for my voicemails, can't beat it, compared to a few others that I've tried.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] KD5SGS:
Everytime I use the stock MMS app, my t-mobile shows up. I never had that issue with my prior phone. Does this mean Im stuck using the Google voice app?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] cozbaldwin:
Just checking in to see if you or anyone else has come up with a permanent solution - or found the reason this happens. I, too, can get GV to work but then at some point it reverts back to Tmo voicemail. (The phone also seems to revert back from my custom ringtone to the default ringtone too every once in a while)
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] shpitz461:
Has anyone been able to make/receive calls using CSIPSimple? All I get now is 'call cannot be completed as dialed' when placing a call (either native dialer or CSIPSimple), and the phone never rings when someone calls my GV number.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Serpentene:
You can only use one dialer number which is set in Google voice options if the app is auto ask to choose..the unchosen number will always send incoming calls to VM..and the phone will NOT ring to notify of an incoming call.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] chefandy:
I'm new to this forum and it seems like a great resource. I have seen this question answered but the answers are still above my head in terms of complexity. I've got an AT&T branded SX56 running 2002 and an XDA-Developers ROM (I think). It is unlocked, I am guessing through the use of an XDA Developers tool for unlocking. I'm in Colorado and using the phone with T-mobile. My question is this, I'd like to upgrade to 2003 and have downloaded the file to do so from Siemens website for free, which is great. It had some nice enhancements and I thought I'd upgrade to it. So, I downloaded/installed the new ActiveSync v3.71 and then tried to run the upgrade. I got the same message many have gotten apparently saying that the ROM Image is not compatible. The specs are;

current

Model PW10A1

ROM 3.17

English

upgraded

Model PW10B1

ROM A.30

English

In reading through the posts it seems that I need to upgrade the ROM of the device, but I still get lost looking at "cooking a ROM", etc and what exactly I need to do. Making this a little more urgent is the fact that after I tried to upgrade the phone (which gave me the ROM error) my internet connection on the phone (which was working fine) suddenly doesn't work with explorer or outlook on my phone giving me an error "Trouble Connecting; Unable to connect with current settings" even though I didn't change the settings and they look exactly as they did before. So, I feel like I've messed something else up on the phone even though it didn't get to install the whole upgrade.

So, any advice for a novice? Thanks in advance, I appreciate any help you can give.

Best regards,

chefandy
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
the official AT&T release for WM2003 is an exe file contains both ROM & RSU upgrade, and it aparently designed for PW10B devices (900/1900 MHz).

i think the first part of the faulty upgrade (usually RSU) affected your device ... i really hope not :(

chech your device info and tell us what's there. if u can still get to the boot loader screen and activesync can still connect to the device, then it's not a severe damage. I think successful RSU upgrade with the right stack would solve it.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] chefandy:
I'm not sure what the boot loader screen is, but the device still syncs just fine and seems to be working ok except for the internet connection issue. The funny part is that I can connect to the GPRS connection by going to the connections screen, but then when I transfer to Outlook or Explorer they do not recognize the connection as something they can use.

Is the Siemens upgrade I downloaded (http://www.my-siemens.com/MySiemens...C%2FMC%2FSX56POCKETPCPHONE%2Fdanda%2F,00.html) different from the AT&T upgrade you mention? I also saw there was a T-mobile upgrade to 2003 but it was not available when I tried to download it from tmobile.com. Thanks!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
That's great! .. :) ... It seems I misunderstood your issue ... I thought you lost the RSU part.

I think something wrong happens to the registry values ... you see, there is a reference for each defined connection in the registry which all applications that may require to connect to GPRS or WAP or MMS can refer to.

I suggest that you delet ALL connections and start the setting from scratch ... I can't guarantee it will work since some applications may be required to be uninstalled and reinstalled to use the new connections references (if it has smart uninstaller!!).

The last resort is a hard reset which will bring the registry to the original setup.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] chefandy:
Well, I did what you suggested and started with a new connection and it worked :lol: Thanks!

Now I'm back to the original question about whether or not I can safely upgrade to WM2003 or not? Thanks again for all your help.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
The answer is YES! ... it's easy to upgrade ur ROM to WM2003 if u know what ur doing.

spend some time reading this forum on how to cook a new ROM from the kitchen ... and it's better to get yourself SD card for flashing and backup.

I don't know. Maybe I'm missing something, but if you are going to disable all that Samsung software whats the point in getting an S4? It seems their software was the big upgrade this time around and the hardware less so.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] aleph_0:
It's more of a matter of form on AT&T's and Samsung's part.

I don't think Com2UsPoker, Adapt Sound, At&T Family Maps, ChoKUKor, YPmobile,TripAdvisor, BlurbCheckout, Match3VS, or most any software displayed in the screenshots are particularly unique to the GS4. I'm sure most of us will not lament the absence of the majority of the displayed list of applications. All in all, it's a rather rude of Samsung and AT&T to put all of that clearly invaluable software on a $700 phone, then make it uninstallable.

Being the best is debatable. Nevertheless if you want a pure stock experience, then you might as well get a Nexus 5 when it comes out. It will be unlocked, cheaper, and probably have better specs.

Funny how things are so subjective. I just spent the last 2 hours with an S4 and One side by side.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] phositadc:
Interesting. I haven't used a one but if you read these forums (and for that matter, most reviews), there are countless reports that the GS4 can be laggy from time to time. I don't think anybody is suggesting it is slow... just that it had the occasional stutter that you wouldnt expect.

Open the dialer, for instance. Takes longer than it should by a long shot.
