Theres an xposed addon that shows the true "network" your currently on. Samsung/tmobile jacked up the icon so you cant tell...as if always on 4g when it crawls along is any fix!

Aosp icon fix? or some such

Good luck! and be sure to let everyone know what you did to fix it!

I try to limit that amount of apps I put on my phone. A friend of mine has like 15 pages of apps in his drawer. I really hate the GS5 theme what would be nice if it were to be in white or grey. that blue/green color is horrible. Might as well leave it as the original color blue like the GS3 or a different white from GS4.

I lost LTE again...

All I did was choose Network mode wcdma only and it went to 4g. when I switched it back to wcdma/gsm auto connect , it never hooked up with LTE again....

The stock rom had LTE as an option but it is missing from this rom.... Did I do something wrong?

Help...

If using a custom rom, the way to tell actual connection is to start a download and check network type in settings.

gs3 metro ridiculously low data speeds

So my phone was working fine until earlier today until i flashed S3Rx 3.0 TouchWiz 4.3 NC2 (4-5-14) my data speeds are between 7- 20 kbps now a bit lower than the 2-5 Mbps i was getting before with cm-11-20140504-SNAPSHOT-M6-d2lte. can anyone help me with this i have no idea what caused it >.<. i was also having WiFi issues after i flashed S3Rx so i went back in and flashed the recommended Kernel MJ2 i think?. Any help would be very appropriated thanks!

I am still getting great network speed.

Sounds like either a bad download or a botched install on the recovery end.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Very likely its a network issue in your area. Ive seen many many threads and posts where would update or flash a rom (even just rooting) and theyd start getting poor data speeds. Of course everyone is always quick to blame the rom/update/root/whatever, only to post a day or two later that all is good and it was a tower down for maintenance or other problems on tmobiles end.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
You dont necessarily have to wait that long. Id say give it several hours, then call your carrier to check on any known outtages in your area. If not then by all means, let us know and we will do our best to help.

Curious if the Sprint kitkat v4.4.3[?] is something that will work on our devices..eg sgh-t999.

LTE

I was able to reproduce my LTE failure..... After a clean flash the LTE works fine. If I go into Settings-More Networks-Mobile Networks-Network Mode and make a change LTE will be lost forever with out reflashing. The LTE option is missing from the settings. You can turn it off and not have the ability to turn it back on.

Can anyone else reproduce this issue?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] popimp315:
Confused. MMS just stopped working over wifi. I can send, cant receive, then itll be i cant send sms and can send mms, then its cant send or receive mms but can sms. Odin'd and everything. Will investigate further.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Do you have a T999L or T999N? Have you fully updated your firmware to NC1? Baseband is NC1? Have you checked your apn's? Should be fast.tmobile.com or fast.metropcs.com depending on carrier.

Ill bet its a network issue on T-Mobile's side. Call to see if they know of any maintenance or outtages in your area.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
If your baseband is not NC1, try updating by flashing the modem (see my sig for link). To check baseband version, go to settings, about device and it should be there.

If already on this modem or updating it doesn't work, try a full firmware update.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] popimp315:
I'm on t999. Dunno what it is but its hit or miss. And im on the latest baseband and modem. Dunno what it is. If i wipe the wifi calling, ims, and omac, it'll work, then it will go right back to not working. Dunno why its so hit or miss.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
If its not a network issue, could be an account one. If it were a bug you should get the same result every time and others would have the same thing happening.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] popimp315:
So i'm able to send no problem...its the receiving that is the problem. Further investigation going on.

Yep, can send just fine. Can't receive. I get the message and it won't download at all.

Edit again. So it seems it works in the beginning when I send to myself. Then it stops out of no where.

What is your current apn settings, out of curiosity?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] popimp315:
APN were the ones that come into with the rom. I've since switched roms (cyanogenmod....i was lazy lol) because of the problem. Just wifi calling is the only reason i run twiz and if its not working properly, mind as well go stock if im not going to have it. Rom was great, worked well, no problems or issues. It was just odd. Last week it was working just fine and now its a little off. I would probably chalk it up to network but just confused as to why its just not working. I will try again tonight. I did notice when i first start the phone the epc apn is not selected at all. I will investigate further tonight.

MMS over WiFi

This is happening with me, as well, though I haven't noticed whether SMS has stopped working, as I haven't had any sent messages not get received. MMS do not come through, nor do they even come through as a message stating that they couldn't be downloaded (which was a common problem of other TW WiFi-calling-enabled ROMs).

I'm using a T999, and flashed the NC2 kernel/bootloader / full wipe/ flashed S3Rx. Cleared data and cache on both Messenger and Hangouts. APN is set correctly for Tmo U.S. Wifi calling works great, and, as I said, I haven't noticed SMS issues over WiFi... just the MMS messages.

Great ROM. The best TW I've found with WiFi-calling enabled. Hope I can get it to work.

I'm on the tmobile t999 going from the previous version to the 4-5-14 update. I've been recently getting a message that my phones memory has been running low, and system applications wouldn't function properly. So I backed up my applications and tried to update to the 4-5-14 version after I wiped caches and wiped all memory.. When I installed, it kept freezing at the white Samsung screen. I just checked my battery and it says it's dead but I checked in another s3 and it's 100% full. Did anyone else have that experience? what should I try next?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Odin flash the root66 firmware and see if it reads correctly there. Then reflash the rom and see if its ok after that. (Or you could try a factory reset. Not sure if thats what you meant by wiping all memory)

Re: MMS over WiFi

Hey popimp:

Any luck investigating the MMS over WiFi issues? I've had very similar issues (see my prev reply post on page 306), but--as Doc suggested--T-Mobile has no record of maintenance or outages. (This is very similar to the known problems with other TW-based WiFi-calling enabled ROM I have tried, so I doubt there is an easy fix).

Your sig says [*redacted*] ROM is on your S3 now... Did you switch (back) to that from the S3Rx? Or is it an old sig?

Also, are you using combined Hangouts to receive SMS/MMS, or the default Messaging app?

If you're still on the S3Rx, I'd love to try to at least narrow down what the issue is, if possible, to see if there is a valid workaround. Love this ROM, but get no cell service in the Faraday cage of my office, so the calling and SMS/MMS over WiFi is a big deal to me.

Cheers,

midazolam

That is a matter of opinion. In my opinion the 747 is the one I prefer. It runs nice and smooth on conservative governor and is no worse on battery life than stock.

Another thing if you haven't done it in awhile would be to format your internal storage. Not sure why it would pause at 36 percent .

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Andassaran:
First off, I love the rom, but I'm having a very weird issue. On either TouchWiz messaging app, if I go over 160 characters, it jams up the entire messaging system and won't send or receive. It's almost like it's not splitting the message before it sends. However, its fine using the CM MMS app. (edit: the previos statement that was here redacted, didn't make any sense.) Stock doesn't do this, and a couple other roms that don't use such extensive CSC edits also works as expected.

My question is, what's the line in /system/csc/feature.xml I need to edit to disable the sms auto combination? I've got a hunch and I'm wanting to try something...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elrene101:
MMS.apk or secmms.apk

ok so My messaging app does not work I dont receive Text messages the only way to send or receive is thru Hangouts or textra what ever if a new person tries to text me I dont receive any messages they do receive my messages? but I don't ... so do I replace the MMS.apk in /system/app or secmms.apk in order to reset that messaging app. I need to install one that works with this awesome ROM any one any suggestions? all I get is unfortunately, messaging has stopped. it closes on me and yes I have tried the following:

clear cache on app

clear data on app

clear cache/dalvik on recovery

fix permissions

and nothing...

even cleared all my messages with the sms backup I deleted everything from the messaging app... but i still cnt open that BS. anyone with the file that I should replace I still have a MMS.apk in the /system/app folder... anywhere else I need to go remove or delete or install or what exactly? im stuck thanks anyone who can answer this.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tokenpoke:
You could try tapping the apk files in question and installing them again but it sounds like a bug in your download/flash
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I agree that it sounds like an issue with the rom flash, or maybe even the download itself. Either way, I'd suggest re-downloading the rom (make sure you verify the MD5), then reflash, wiping only dalvik and reboot to see if that helps. If not, reflash again, but this time just choose a different option for messaging and see if it works.

If all else fails, Odin flash NC2 firmware, factory reset and try again clean. (backup your data first of course!!!) (test messaging while stock before flashing the rom again, just to make sure it still works as its supposed to). All I know for sure is when I used this rom I dont recall having any issues with SMS/MMS, so if it wasn't a bad flash or download, it could very likely be corrupt or incompatible data.

Calls over my bluetooth earpiece (Plantronics M165) are incredibly loud and distorted no matter the volume setting. The volume control is working, but all settings are at least twice as loud as they should be. I'm seeing very similar reports from people with the SGS5, if that helps. Does any of the applicable software come from that or a similar model? Is there a setting anywhere that I can try changing to resolve this?
