Echo on Nokia Car Kit

Can you confirm after installing the rom upgrade to 1.40, that you can use the nokia car kit with no more echoing, cause I have a O2 XDA 11s from Australia, and I am suffering with the same annoying issue with the Nokia CK-1W car kit.

Can I apply the 1.40 rom update that was posted a few days ago to my XDA?

Your help is much appreciated.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] tikkel:
After installing the rom update 1.40 I had less complaints about echoing. But yesterday, there was some one complaining again about echoing. Just first of all try turning the volume of the carkit to the lowest and make a call...

So the echo is not yet gone for now! :( :( :(
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] jimbo_hippo:
I have exactly the same problem with an SPV M2000 on Orange and the Ck-7W car kit. I used the kit succesfully with a nokia 6600 for a year or so and have used carkits for years so I know it isn't an installation problem.

Nokia support aren't interested as its a non-nokia phone.

Tried the upgrade on the Business section of the Orange website. No joy there either.

I'm at my witts end with this one! I just use my earphones now but its a real pain in the ar*e when you're used to a radio-muting, self connecting carkit.

I seem to remember with Nokia phones you could do something with EFR that helped but this isn't so on these phones.

Tried some bluetooth upgrades but to be honest its not something I'm comfortable with and think the problem lies elsewhere.

If anyone comes up with a fix for this it would be hugely appreciated. Callers complain all the time. I tested it by parking the car outside the office and ringing the office phone. Ran inside and spoke to the empty car with no engine running and yes theres an echo thats as loud as the voice. Truly awful.

So much for compatitblilty eh!!!?

Any help greatly appreciated.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] alarmed:
Hi, to be honest it's not Nokia's fault their car kit work well with nokia phones, which they were designed to do. You would think bluetooth is compatable with other bluetooth devices this is not always the case.

To be fair your only option is the ericsson HCB 30 or the 300 car kit or i belive the parrot bluetooth with the lastest software work really well

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] FEO1540:
guy's your so lucky,

I have Just XDA II and I can't get the phone to work with the car kit!!

life sux when from down under. :?

no one has a aussie upgrade whithout the phone locking up.

and when You ask custom support which is in hong kong they don't know when the upgrades are coming! :(
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] Ampelmann:
It is definitive Nokia's fault. I had a huge echo using a SE t610 (and the xda2s) with ck7w! Does anyone know a good alternative for a bluetooth carkit?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] Ratty12345:
as installers for car kits, and i own an XDA myself.

i have tried the phone with the following car kits, CK7W, CK1W and neither of these work, this is down to nokia's car kit and there is no known fix for this...

if we have customers with XDA's (or 2s) we now use Motorola HFW8000 as we have found these work with no problems at all.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] joppie1984:
Same problem here, lots of echo with the cw7 carkit.

Going to have a good look at the BT and wave dll's.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] joppie1984:
Have taken 2 days too look at the problem,

have tryed different BT stack. But nothing worked.

Replaced the speaker (from the CK-7W) carkit from onder the drivers dash to the passengers dash and got a slide improvement on the echo problem.

going to try a directional microfoon next.

ill tell you the results once i get them.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] tikkel:
Solution!

I have the solution of the bt car kit error! :!:

I bought a MDA Vario/Wizard/9100 with the newest rom on it. Now it works like really good and no echoing anymore! Pairing and calling without echos! :P :P
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Accessories] ranger1801:
I think its a general problem of the Nokia Car Kit

Hello,

my girlfriend has a Nokia 6210 - I think :?:

She don´t have bluetooth. She put the phone in the cradle.

It´s a realy good connection!!! Speakingquality is so good, that you don´t if she drives or stand. It´s realy PROFESSIONAL

If i connect my Blue Angel i have a very bad connection. Realy bad. My Parrot CK 3100 in my car is much better with my BA. But i tried to connect a Motorola Razor V3 with my Parrot. And see - the quality is so good, that my first thinking was - trash mdaIII buy Razor. I didn´t!!

I tried every rom with my parrot. WM5 Tuma (V1, V2, V3) Ivan with Widcom Stack and original from T-Mobile. After Updating to version 1.42.01 and a firmware-update of the parrot the quality is very good.

But with nokia CK7W or so the quality isn´t good with my BA.

It isnt my carkit, that of my girlfriend - i´m happy with my parrot, and by the way, the Display, VoiceDial, Object-Push-Server of the Parrot is more professional then the small button of nokia where you only can set volume and call the last number...

[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Touch doesn't work because you are on the official 3.20 base. That base has updated touchpanel drivers.

Use this one and touch will be back.

http://db.tt/t6RTcTwK

And then go here for a 3.20 nandroid backup. You should have made one yourself btw.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1975140

And after you restored the 3.20 nandroid backup you flash back this stock recovery

http://db.tt/pO3jumMa

Then relock the bootloader :

Fastboot oem lock
[HTC One X] ReichMann:
Thanks, touch works now :D, i have CID__102 (Germany WWE). but can i use nandroid backup from CID__001?

and at the site u linked, there is only version 3.18.401. is it okay too?

Thanks u very much :good:
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Yes do it like this

-Flash the boot.img from the 3.18 backup

-Restore the nandroid backup

-Flash the 3.14 stock recovery

Then update the software via the software update menu in the settings menu.

After all updates you relock the bootloader. Then CID is oke too ;)

How long does AT&T give you to be able to return a phone or exchange it? Mine is starting to malfunction. The touch screen is not responding so I cant unlock it, then the screen started flashing green and going into a blank TV channel looking screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] tdevaughn:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] highaltitude:
Ok, now the screen is black and non responsive. The power button on the side does turn it on and off, but there is no picture at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] tdevaughn:
Rooted? Rom? Any mods?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] highaltitude:
I was running Omega 5.0, Ktoonez kernel. The lock screen wouldn't recognize any touches to the screen, so I restarted it, then I got flashes of green and other static looking screen, the it would clear up, then it booted to lockscreen but still no touch. Restarted a couple more times, now it boots but there is no screen at all. I do get the blue LED, and the 2 capacitive buttons light up. The power button appears to turn it on and off, but no screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] tdevaughn:
Change kernels. Different rom. Sounding like a combination isn't working well for you
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] highaltitude:
I guess I could flash with Odin? What do you think about if I have to return it? Flash stock, but how would I wipe the internal data if I cant see anything on the phone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] tdevaughn:
Can you get to recovery?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] highaltitude:
no the screen does not work whatsover, its not a brick as far as I can tell its, a non working screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
You might have a defect. Take the battery out and let it sit for 24 hours. If it still doesn't work contact AT&T for a Samsung warranty replacement.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] alphadog00:
You have 15 days for an in-store return or exchange. After that you call them and they cross ship you new or refurb.

You really should try to restore to stock first if possible. But I see that may not be possible.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] highaltitude:
I will check it again tomorrow. I did already call warranty. They are sending a new one. They only send the phone; no back, no battery, no box, nothing. Just the phone. They said keep everything removable.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] highaltitude:
I think Dolphin 10.0 screwed things up. I turned on my S3 transferred my SIM card over and my apps started updating. Both phones got messed up when Dolphin browser 10 installed. Almost the same kind of thing happened to my S3. I booted to cwm, wiped data and did a fresh install. Restored apps with Titanium Backup, but this time did not let Dolphin update. Haven't had a problem since on my S3. My S4 is still hosed. Burned out screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] deadeye0908:
That prob means your getting a refurb. And at&t's return policy is 14days..day of purchase counting as day 1.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] highaltitude:
Well the phone does everything normal except have a screen that lights up, so there is no display. Since I can connect it to my PC, I went into it and saved/deleted things manually. Then I was able to flash it with Odin back to stock. So at this point it is at the setup screen as far as I can tell. It actually seems to respond to touch now, but you cant see anything. I opted for paying 14 bucks for rush shipping 1-2 business days. At worst it should be here tomorrow. Good thing I have my S3 and S2 still. :p
[HTC One V] lilrob1213:
Is anyone planning on switching to the galaxy s3 for virgin mobile? It looks pretty awesome, but it's a little expensive (although not as much as an unlocked phone). Any flaws with it?
[HTC One V] rickyx32:
I definitely want one, if there's a phone worth upgrading to from the One V than the s3 is it! The only other phone that has newer specs is the Samsung Victory, but it's chunky and meh when it comes to looks, plus the screen and camera aren't much of an upgrade, so screw that. Anyway, I'm never ever buying a phone from Virgin Mobile unless it's during the Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales, I got screwed when I bought the Optimus V, Optimus Elite, and One V at close to retail when they ended up having them for $49.99 at every BF/CM sale, so just wait until then. I remember the s2 went from $299.99 to $199.99-239.99 around that time, so I wonder how much the s3 will be on special...

Edit: As far as the phone itself goes, the s3 is a fantastically balanced phone with no real drawbacks. I've never been a real fan of samsung's plastic and roundish designs, but they are pretty durable and you can take the back cover off easily for battery replacement and repairs. I'm also looking to upgrade my sd card to a fast 64gb capacity card since the s3 is able to use them. Anyway, the only real question is how well 4G LTE coverage will be by then...
[HTC One V] lilrob1213:
hahaha well yeah! This is the first time I've actually considered buying a phone more expensive than $150 (my one v) but I don't know whether I can wait til November!!! But I probably will because my phone is still good... I just WANT this one!!! lol I didn't even know this, but there's 4g lte in my home town already! AND in the places I plan to move in december! That's good :)
[HTC One V] rickyx32:
Man, just thinking about a rooted s3, with a pure no nonsense JB ROM, modding and adding performance tweaks, not to mention the overclocking potential gets me drooling... :victory: I hope they give it a nice discount come November since I just bought a new laptop and 399.99 plus tax seems too steep for me at the moment.
[HTC One V] russellvone:
My daughter has one..... She's not into rooting or deving but she's had it since it was available to virgin mobile and loves it, 4g is really iffy around here
[HTC One V] lilrob1213:
Yeah I totally agree, $399 plus tax is a bit too pricey for a PHONE... I bought my car for just double that... LOL and I will be needing a car soon, so I'll have to save up for that, but I can't even imagine how wonderful the phone would be! lol
[HTC One V] lilrob1213:
Even a stock samsung touchwiz gs3 would be great on performance I'm sure with the dual core 1.5 Ghz processor *drool* lol but are you in an area that's SUPPOSED to have good 4G? or no?
[HTC One V] russellvone:
No... Not officially covered that's why it's iffy
[HTC One V] demi_fiend:
I already switched a d got one with cricket :p its really amazing, totally glad I got it, its a huuuuuge improvement to be honest. rooted it day one, put carbon on and never looked back :p I wasn't happy with virgin's service which they could never fix, for some reason I would never get calls, just voice mails, over three phones and 100s of complaints. so I don't regret the carrier switch.
[HTC One V] lilrob1213:
Oh okay well that makes sense why it's iffy... oh well, hopefully they'll expand into your area soon! I think my area's getting 4g lte soon! :)
[HTC One V] lilrob1213:
Oh yeah!? That's great! Do they have a lot of fully working roms? That's one thing that bothers me about the one v is that a lot of roms don't have Everything working except the sense based roms... which can be somewhat laggy... but still we have some amazing devs no offense to anyone!!

I have had cricket in the past, and I really didn't like them... maybe they've gotten better since then, but I think I will stick to virgin mobile :)
[HTC One V] XxlemonxX:
Just bought a gs2 it has basically the same exact specs and better design IMO. Same plastic and everything lmao and they both have jellybean so same software except sbeam .. And only 200$ right now
[HTC One V] lilrob1213:
Hmmm... It would have definitely been an upgrade from the one v, but I wouldn't say it's on quite the same level... On virgins website it says it has android 4.0 and a 1.2 ghz dual core which is good but the 4g is wimax not LTE so that's an older slower technology plus the gs3 has an amoled display that's bigger and more vibrant so I'm just not sold but for 200 it's still way better than the one v so I really hope you like it :)
[HTC One V] XxlemonxX:
Ehh you make good points I guess. But it does have jellybean there just slow at uploading their site. S3 might get 4.2 update though
[HTC One V] lilrob1213:
Oh ok well that's good that it got the update :) is it pretty snappy?
[HTC One V] demi_fiend:
for the roms, instead of being gsm or cdma, they go by carrier so if you get the virgin you guys will all most likely start from scratch. its an amazing phone though, I'm on nodded touchwiz right now, but I've tried carbon, chameleon and pretty much all the others the cricket variant had to offer. most Roms are rock solid too.
[HTC One V] lilrob1213:
That's awesome! I'm glad to hear the roms are stable is the modded touchwiz kinda like our modded sense roms?
[HTC One V] demi_fiend:
look up hyperdrive rls14 that's the one most people use. but like I said, its by carrier, Sammy makes their handsets different for each carrier, so there won't be anything at all for virgin until people get it and start building for it.
[HTC One V] lilrob1213:
Oh yeah that rom looks nice, I'm hoping it's simple to port from one carrier to ours and just make an mms fix zip for it or something, I was reading up a little to see what they have so far... but I really wish I could get it soon!!
[HTC One V] demi_fiend:
right now, the verizon variant is almost identical to cricket and us cellular's so I'm thinking virgin's will fall in that cluster as well...Roms will still need to be ported, but it'll just be a tad easier.
[HTC One V] lilrob1213:
Well that's good i just wish I knew how to port lol
[HTC One V] Westnile:
I'm jealous at the person who bought the one V for 150 I paid 230 brand new when cricket started carrying them last November

But unless s4 drops in price I'm upgrading to s3 soon their nice plus I never had problems with Samsung phones that I couldn't fix on my own I've factoried this one 3 times under warranty and it still isn't working right an cricket is starting to get mad at me idk their service coverage in my area sucks Verizon and sprint work in the mtns where with this I have no coverage heard boost is good and the s3 isn't as expensive.
[HTC One V] russellvone:
P.S. lilrob

looks like we are in the same coverage area

lol
[HTC One V] demi_fiend:
I live right by mountains as well, the funny thing is, like less than a mile from the base of the mtns, there's a T-Mobile store that gets like one bar at all times xD

anyway, I hear people saying they got the v for as low as $70 new. virgin always has deals though. in all honesty, I would have gotten the s4 if only I had known :(
[HTC One V] Westnile:
I'm in northern Oregon Dallas area the main area I go to allot falls city has bars with Verizon boost aka sprint and some t-mobile not much I was helping clean out a girls camp and only way I had service one bar is if I was in my friends truck he h's one of them signal boosters in it... The rest of my friends all had full bars... Too much going on in life if someone needs to get a hold of me I need to be available.

I have been watching the s3 forums like a hawk and I like what I've been seeing so definite upgrade for me just debating stay with cricket or go boost meh.

Btw thanks to all the devs for all the work you do and the time and effort you put into your projects!
[HTC One V] demi_fiend:
there's some good stuff going on for s3, but...like I said before, you can't use a lot of the roms, each carrier is different. but cricket has all the necessities, namely carbon...delicious carbon <3
[HTC One V] rickyx32:
I've been looking to upgrade to an s3 or s4 but contract plans are crap, and other prepaid carriers just don't seem as affordable as virgin mobile. Not to mention that s3 seems to cost more with other prepaid carriers. Something that caught my eye though was the new LG F7 on boost, it has pretty much the same specs as the s3, though with a IPS LCD screen half the RAM. The screen is no slouch though since it's more vibrant than the s3's and with the same resolution and it also costs 100$ dollars less than the s3. The problem of course being that it's new and development is non existent, and development just seems to be poorer with LG devices too...

[HTC One V] demi_fiend:
so, it turns out that the virgin variant already has root and a pretty buggy cm 10.1
[Motorola Atrix HD] audit13:
Hi,

Wondering if anyone experienced these two issues with an AHD that has been rooted, has an unlocked bootloader, and running CM10.1 or stock rom:

1) I can power down my Atrix HD from the power menu and it stays off. As soon as I connect my AHD to a usb cable that is connected to my running Win7 computer or wall charger, the phone will power up and boot to the desktop on its own; and

2) when my AHD is running and connected to my running Win7 PC or wall charger, I can select power off from the power menu and the phone will power down and immediately power up again and boot to the desktop. It will not stay off unless it is not connected to my PC or charger.

Other than these two issues, the phone seems to work perfectly. I don't recall the phone exhibiting this behaviour until after rooting and unlocking the bootloader.

Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks.
[Motorola Atrix HD] Byakko Custom:
The phone just likes to power up when it's connected...

That's what it does... In fact, that's what it *always* does. (For me... and for most phones out there...)

IIRC it does this for every rom... For me, it just boots to a screen showing current battery...
[Motorola Atrix HD] audit13:
For me, it boots completely to the desktop for every custom rom I have tried and on the stock Bell 4.1.2 stock too.
[Motorola Atrix HD] IP IHI II IL:
Yup, my experience too... Scared me a few times while trying to get back to stock, but as soon as it's unplugged, it does what I'm asking it to do... Appears to be the M.O. of the phone...

[Motorola Atrix HD] helldogg75:
Had the same issue with my sister-in-law's phone that had an xpal charging case. Figured it out and it seemed to be a specific charger I was using on it. Switched to the one that came with the phone and it stopped rebooting. Haven't seen the laptop connection thing.
[Motorola Atrix HD] audit13:
Weird, but when the phone is off, and I connect it to my Samsung charger, it cuases the phone to power up but the screen becomes a bunch of coloured dots on a white background and it doesn't boot to the Carbon rom desktop. When the phone is off and I connect the USB cable from a charger designed for my Logitech Harmony remote or a usb cable connected to my PC, the phone boots normally.

I'll try it with a Motorola charger tomorrow.
[Motorola Atrix HD] helldogg75:
I would. May be the other cables or chargers are higher voltage? Either way, good luck.
[Motorola Atrix HD] audit13:
Looks like it's an issue with the Carbon rom. I restored to stock JB and it does not reboot with a stock rom while connected to a wall charger in that it powers down and shows the battery charging symbol. With stock JB and connected to my computer, it still restarts.

Not a big deal since I rarely, if ever, turn off my phone. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I'm going back to Carbon rom as it's faster than the stock 4.1.2.

Anyone know of a way to group texts from different contacts? I'm trying to get updates from Facebook, but they use several different numbers and it clogs up my messaging program.

Go SMS Pro used to be able to do this with its "Filter Folder" but they recently removed that and it was never the best option anyway. Is there a standalone app that can do something similar?
