[HTC One V] tykasms:
Hi All,

Just a quick question.

I'm using HTC OneV and myOne v6.5 with Crossbreeder MOD ,and I noticed that some kind of process is renaming my APNs when connecting to roaming networks.. (adding prefix 'apndroid')

Is this something what this ROM does automatically? Or its a crossbreeder? can it be disabled somehow...

I'm using internet a lot over national roaming also.. but it is almost imposibile with that kind of actions

I can add that I dont have any APNDroid app installed on my OneV

Thanks for any clues..

Marcin

Edit:

Stupid Me... It was another app which was acting as APNDroid... Llama! with some aditional settings about roaming...

Sorry for toubles.

I am using Voice Command 1.5 for PPC (O2 XDA IIs) and recently had to do a re-install. This time I put BetaPlayer on before Voice Command and now BetaPlayer activates when I ask it to play a music track. Previously the Windows Media Player would play the music and I cannot figure out how to change the default player for Voice Command!

Of note - It is not MP3 file associations as this still points to Media Player not Beta Player (Clicking on an MP3 brings up Media Player). Also, when I state "Next Track" with Media Player active it changes track ..... very confusing!

I feel that the activation of Media Player is contained in some form of ini file for Voice Command as I have searched the registry for some link to Voice Command and Media Player but been unable to locate this. If anyone has any suggestions I would be most grateful.....
[General Topics] Bebbo:
Found it!

It isn't .mp3 file associations it is .asx association (Playlist).

A simple edit of the registry with PHM Registry Editor soon fixed the problem!
[General Topics] issie:
I had the same problem, but my other offending player was mortplayer..

now this solution may work for you so here goes.

1....i uninstalled mort player first because mvcommand tried to call each time i tried to call an artist mp3 file.

when yo try to use mvcommand again to call the artist, an error "voice command.asx" would be displayed. mvcommand actually places this file in a temp directory on your pda's memory.

2.......i then used Gsfinder+ a freeware file explorer program to associate the file asx with "windows media player file" by doing a file open... choose program method,

3 now open the asx file, this will load the media player...close it

and try the command to load an artist from mvcommand.

it worked for me.

if your probblem is related to video files the same procedure may work for that too, but am not sure if it will save an wmv or avi file to the temp directory.

Good luck :roll:

So i've been using NFC Tags to launch car mode when I put my phone in my car's phone cradle, which activates bluetooth and GPS, as well as brings up Google's Car Home App.

Up until recently, it has been working flawlessly. This morning however I noticed that when I click on the X to exit car mode, there is an ongoing notification on my phone telling me that car mode is disabled, and to touch the notification to re-launch it.

The only way to get rid of this is to reboot my phone.

I can't think of anything that I did between last night (used car mode without this problem) and this morning (problem first appeared). Anyone else run into this issue?

Here is a screenshot of the notification:

Ok my friend has a mini 3 gt1890n he tried to root and failed badly, i was given this phone bricked i flashed param file gti1890 instead of nfc model now i dont know exactly whats went wrong i have tried a few different roms all with the same issue no calls or texts it doesn't even dial credit line or anything just cancels call, call ended before dial tone

Now i notice that modem fs folder has nothing in it and i have done bug reports using toolkit and it come up with same errors

1st one is along these lines

------ SHOW MAP 534 () (/system/xbin/su root showmap 534) ------

*** exec(/system/xbin/su): No such file or directory

and 2nd is

is something about phone service been idle due to radio been off

when i check service menu things like rf scanning are all empty i am pretty sure this shouldnt be the case, strangely can connect to the 3g internet service and connected to o2 network and everything ok

any help appreciated

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] myphone12345:
Yeah, it won't let me install it either. Weird. Worked on other phones before.

Try the different options under Connections->More Networks->Roaming. Maybe the APN options are buried there somewhere. Also, see if you have "data" checked under "GSM Network" in the roaming section, that might help.

Also, in the screen that shows you the network that you are on or allows you to select a network, make sure the green button is on the host network the SIM is associated with, then press the menu button, it might give you options for the APN.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] nicotheandroidguy:

if you can hook up to wifi dl nova or apex (its just temporaory unless you want to keep it) hold on your home screen till you get the option to add shortcut>activities>settings>APNs this will give you access to add or remove apns at will without having to mess with your msl and sprint tech support.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] loydster:
That got me to a menu to add apn but the menu is grayed out and wont let me edit it. I figure I probably need root access.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Ingenium13:
I have root, and it's still greyed out. It doesn't prompt for root access either. That said, I don't have a GSM SIM in right now, so maybe when I put in a third party SIM it'll be available?

I'm guessing though it requires the MSL to add though, but there's no prompt to put it in either.

EDIT: Actually, I found the exact same APN menu under ##DATA# under Other, LTE APN. However, pressing menu doesn't even have the option to add an APN, and I put my MSL in to edit. I'm hoping it just won't let me add it because I still have the Sprint LTE SIM in.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] xxaddictedxx:
hmm very strange you should be able to at least add new apns.....is there not a add icon once you go into the APN screen?

---------- Post added at 05:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 PM ----------

shouldnt be under menu you should have like a little circle with a plus sign near the top right of the screen and that should prompt u to add your apn.

---------- Post added at 05:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:55 PM ----------

if you can get it and as long as that works then once you are done adding your APNs before you leave that screen be sure to hit menu and save

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bengermino:
Sprint Galaxy S4 APNs Are Unchangeable and therefore prohibit international data use.

Update: This is a known issue on the Galaxy S4, primarily from Sprint. They have completely disabled all APN changing and editing I order to disallow data usage on any other network than their local and global roaming networks.

The only known way to fix this is to root your device which will void the warranty, stop OTA updates and software upgrades, and possibly brick your phone.

Or, you could just travel overseas and pay $500-800/ month for Sprints roaming.

And then there's the option of using your Galaxy S4 like a flop phone and just using it for SMS and phone calls.

Because even though Sprint says it's an international smartphone, it's not.. If you like to use data services that is.

Waiting for an update to fix Sprints proprietary obsessions...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Ingenium13:
I found a solution. If you're rooted, add the following to your build.prop, reboot, and it makes the APN settings editable:

ril.sales_code=LOL
ro.csc.sales_code=LOL

The APN menu isn't there in the settings for me, but others have reported that with these edits it appears when a non-Sprint SIM is put in. With the Sprint SIM in, I can add a shortcut with Nova Launcher to go into the APN settings, and it's now possible to select which APN to use and add new ones.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ehaalandtluk:
This worked initially (Sprint SIM card) but, after editing the build.prop, my diagnostic menus stopped working. I returned the build.prop file to the original state. However, I kept the Nova launcher short cut. I can still access it without these lines in the build.prop.

Win/Win.

Now, I will try to do it with a non-sprint SIM when I can get rid of this "INVALID SIM" error.... anyone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Ingenium13:
But can you still add a new APN and not have all the fields be greyed out? And can you switch between existing APNs without the build.prop edits?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] ehaalandtluk:
Can't add a new APN. And I don't know about changing them until I get a working SIM card.

You can actually change this through the ##data# menus, this is just a more convenient way of doing it.

[LG Optimus G (International)] Mexicouger:
I am having troubles booting my phone after the battery depletes and the phone shuts off. My Optimus G is rooted with lifeless Rom v14 and I have TWRP recovery.

So once the phone dies, I plug it in to charge, and the phone screen automaticaly comes on and the LG logo flashes for a second, but nothing happens. The phone doesn't actually charge. If I remove the phone from the charger, the display still stays on until I hard reset it. I cannot access recovery mode or download mode for some reason. Usually when my phone dies, and I plug it in, it will flash the LG logo, keep the display on for a few seconds, and then shut down and restart and show the battery logo charging. I am not getting that this time, and I can't seem to do anything to get it operating again. There also isn't a red LED light to represent charging either. If anyone has had this issue before or knows how to fix it, I'd really appreciate the information right now.

[LG Optimus G (International)] ronasimi:
I had the exact same problem last night. (weird) I held down the power button for ~15 sec, and let the phone sit for about 15 min. I booted it and got it to load into TWRP and then put it on the charger. Let it charge in TWRP to around 10% and then booted into android and let it charge overnight. I had a mild panic attack at first but all is good now. Stupid software dependent charging.
[LG Optimus G (International)] d.terenzzo:
Ok, that's definitely weird... I came to XDA because of this, it happened to me 2x and I did the same as you, let it charge in CWM till 12% ( shower time) and reboot the system. I'm not sure what exactly is causing the issue, it shouldn't be a software problem.

To try to find what's going on, lets talk about what we have in common:

ROM: Houston stock international (stock 4.1.1)

Charger: Non LG charger (htc)
