[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arachnophile:
Alternatively if someone knows if factory reset will restore it, that will be fine too. I don't think it does since I have seen so many stories of people bricking their device by modifying the build.prop and then a factory reset doesn't fix it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arachnophile:
Confirmed factory reset does not restore it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Madmoose*:
Here ya go.

Also, rename sdm.apk so ya dont get those ota's :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arachnophile:
Unfortunately that didn't work. I wonder if even the last modified date has to match.

I am actually trying to get the OTA to work. I have OTA Root Keeper, so I am not worried about OTA taking away root.

I'm honestly not sure that I even care if I can't get root back. The only thing I use root for now is modifying DNS to use Fool DNS to block ads, but that interferes with Hulu sometimes. Such a bummer too. It's nice watching the screen blink a couple times and then voila, commercial break is over.

Samsung gave me instructions to flash with OEM firmware, so I am going to try that.

Thanks for posting that up so quick though!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superkevx:
Is it at all possible to just update the bluetooth stack from the new 4.3 release to a 4.2 rom? I don't want to give up pacman rom (or illusion) but it might be awhile before they move over to 4.3. AVRCP 1.3 is the main feature I want from 4.3. Is there any way to go about this?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparco_92:
I was searching some time ago and I didn't find anything.. the PA team said they may have merged android 4.3 today in his ROM..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
The S4 seems particularly sensitive in picking up engine noise when the charger and audio cables are plugged into my car. I am working on a variety of ideas to address this issue. My old HTC Tbolt had none of these problems.

When the audio is plugged into the aux port and power is not plugged in then there is no problem.

Once the power is plugged in along with the audio/aux cable then I can hear some engine whine coming through my speakers. I have tried a few fixes such as a Snap-on Ferrite Choke Core for the power line (http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103222) and a ground isolation filter on the audio line (http://www.ebay.com/itm/400503000568?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649). These filters provide some improvements, but are not perfect.

Are other people hearing this problem with their cars? Any other suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Monkz:
I notice it too only when i have my phone charging while driving. Its fine when the engines off, but when the engines on and the heavier its going, the more interference i seem to get.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gotroot801:
Have you tried putting a ground loop isolator between your AUX input and the phone?:

http://www.amazon.com/PAC-Ground-Is...74692393&sr=8-2&keywords=ground+loop+isolator
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Imprezive13:
I hear it when there is no music being played. Goes away soon as I get a phone call or music plays
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dginsd:
Ground loop isolator and choke coils are Band Aid fixes. The root cause is a voltage difference between the power outlet used for the charger and the power source for the stereo system, this may only be a few millivolts. You can fix this by taking the wires for the power outlet (cigarette lighter port) both power and ground, and connect them to the power source of the stereo system, ideally constant 12 volts behind the radio. If you need switched power use a relay.

If you need more specific instructions ie which wires, relay diagram, etc, let me know and give me your year make and model of vehicle.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
I have a 2007 Honda Civic Coupe EX.

Any advice on how to wire the grounds and power cleanly would be appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] revbones:
Depending on your car stereo and where you're plugging in, you may just need to turn the volume all the way up on the phone after connecting it. By default the volume adjusts down automatically and if I leave it at that level and run the power through the cigarette lighter or accessories adapter, I hear the whine of the alternator. If I crank the volume up on the phone, I don't get it unless I have the radio really really cranked as well. May not work for you, but there's a serious difference for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
I use Volume Ace to lock the media volume to max.

I can still here a bit of whine when the audio is plugged in, especially if nothing is playing.

I can live with it and want to try to get rid of it. Im finicky about audio quality
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] UNCMo96:
I just noticed this today when I tried my S4 in the car for the first time.

I had a Razr Maxx before and never had these issues. I plugged my S4 in and heard the alternator whine. I switched cables and it improved but the cable was positional. I switched back to the razr maxx and no issues with either cable.

It looks like most people had success with this:

http://www.amazon.com/Kensington-Re...r=8-1&keywords=aux+cable+noise#productDetails

I wish I could blame the car but my iPod classic and previous 2 android phones have not had this issue. I wonder why the S4 is so sensitive to this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andy41384:
I've also noticed the static noise when plugged in to aux and the car charger only. I recently upgraded from the Bionic and that had horrible feedback when plugged into the car charger and aux port. If you are an old Bionic owner, then your fix is that you are already used to it, so its nothing new with the S4 haha.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dginsd:
Keep in mind that unplugging (dissconnecting constant 12 volts or ground) your radio may activate a security mechanism and require a theft code. If you don't have the code you can usually get it from a Honda dealership all they usually need is the VIN and the radio serial number. You should verify you can get this information before you start, else you risk having a unusable stereo system. As with any advise over the internet you proceed at your own risk, and I take no responsibility for any damage that occurs.

Ok, your Honda Civic wiring goes as follows, (sometimes the colors are different depending on date of production, country of manufacture or country of sale) ideally you would want to use a multi-meter to varify you have the correct wires:

Constant 12Volts behind the radio is: White

Ignition: Purple

Ground: Black

You then can cut the wires to the lighter plug, extend them and route them to the radio, Make sure you secure the unused cut wires so they don't short out on each other or ground, the lighter wires should be:

Power: Purple (though sometimes this may be a different color but there's only 2)

Ground: Black

Connect the ground from the lighter to the radios ground, and the power to the radios constant 12 volts. This will make your lighter have constant power, if thats ok with you, your done. If not, go to an auto parts store and get a 12 volt SPDT (single pole, double throw) relay, these are pretty standard.

Do not connect the lighter directly to the radios ignition wire, to get a switched circuit, as this isn't the wire the stereo uses to power it's internal amplifier circuit and will not fix your issue. Also if you have external amplifiers installed, if those aren't installed correctly, this won't fix your problem, sometimes using auxiliary devices can expose otherwise unnoticeable problems
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
Any idea what the gauge of the wires are on the radio? I want to get some wire taps like this, http://www.ebay.com/itm/Wire-Tap-In...169?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2580044be1

thanks,

Scott
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dginsd:
Fairly small, if those are the 3M T-taps the red ones should work just fine, the power wires will likely be 18 to 16awg, I know the red are only recommended for 22-18 but sometimes the larger ones don't make a good connection, and with a bad connection you can get a voltage drop, which is what we're trying to eliminate in the first place.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
I am going to leave the cigarette lighter alone. My plan is to connect a Samsung OEM usb cable directly to the power and ground of my Civics radio. I believe the outside pins are power (1) and ground (4). Is it worth shorting the center pins (2 and 3)?

I am debating on the best place to run the cable through the dashboard.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dginsd:
Computers are not my area of expertise but I believe that is a 5 volt plug, AKA don't do it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
I have some spare cigarette adapters that I could take apart and install behind the dash to convert the car's 12v to the usb 5v.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dginsd:
Yeah that should work just fine, in my experience you want to stay away from the cheapie generic adapters.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
Still planning out my stategy on this installation.

Now i am thinking of using the following dc converter

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CXKBJI2/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8

Would it work to jumper off the fuse for the radio with the converter and than run a usb cable to my phone?

Don't I want to use a switched circuit to avoid battery drain?

On a separate idea, if I change to a bluetooth adapter on my aux port would that get rid of the engine noise too?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dginsd:
Your best bet is to use the cigarette lighter converter, designing your own circuit like that would also require you to design noise suppression circuitry for it. (Usually built into the cigarette adaptor though not always perfect, hens this project) if your concern is the ugly cigarette lighter socket wort, they make wired lighter sockets that can be plugged in to and stashed behind the dash, that in conjunction with the relay diagram I gave you should work just fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ericstephani:
I had a similar problem on both my vehicles. I switched to using a bluetooth a2dp receiver.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
I have read a lot of good things about the Kinivo adapter.

What kind of charging rate can you get off it's USB port for the S4?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
I just bought a Kinivo Bluetooth adapter. I plan to hardwire it to power and ground. Hopefully the sound will be good and the engine noise will be gone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ericstephani:
The cigarette lighter adapter that comes with the Kinivo is only a 1 amp. So I have a 2 amp charger that I use in the car. But (I have to verify this) I think the S4 only accepts 2 amp charging when you use the charger that came with the phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
I installed the kinivo adapter over the weekend and it works great. I added a cigarette lighter port that hangs off my fuse box. The bt receiver is taped to the A column and sits to the left of my head. The aux cable runs under the dash and below the steering column. I will post some pics later this week.

The engine noise appears to be gone along with one less cable. The auto connect feature on the Kinivo makes getting music playing in the car very quick and easy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dginsd:
Bluetooth really is the way to for mobile connection though it can be pricey in some instances, I work for a car dealership sublet company and we charge $300+ for our basic bluetooth (no music functionality) one can save a great deal of money doing it themselves, congrats.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] akhotch:
Hear it through almost all phones using their headphone port when charging. Its the alternator whirr coming through the power cord. My fix was to not charge while listening to music...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
Here are the pics from my installation.

Pic 1 shows the placement of the Kinivo receiver.

Pic 2 shows the cig lighter adapter which I taped to the back of the fuse box

Pic 3 shows the add a circuit installation to the fuse box. You can see the cig lighter hanging down the back.

Pic 4 shows the wiring to the aux jack.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dginsd:
Not too shabby. So that Bluetooth piece outputs to an eighth inch headphone jack, or did you have to adapt it? If it comes that way it's s pretty unique piece.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] swieder711:
The Kinivo BT Receiver outputs directly to an 1/8" male jack and comes with an 1/8" extension cord to so i could run the wire directly to my car's AUX port.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] The5Venomz:
Hey guys... This morning I lost all service and got a strange icon in the status bar. A reboot fixed it, then then again it happened later on today while I was on a call... The call just dropped. Anyone knows what is causing this? Here's the screenshot View attachment 2140265
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jonathan3579:
It's saying that there's no SIM card installed. The issue could be your SIM card or the worst case scenario is you'll need to hard reset your phone.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] The5Venomz:
That's weird... I was thinking that is what it meant, but i didn't think it would be likely since I've been with T-Mobile for less then a month. Any thoughts on what could cause it? Thanks in advance!!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Rhiannon224:
Just get a new SIM card, that's definitely either a bad SIM card or hardware problem. Phone isn't recognizing the SIM.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] retrac650:
Just throwing in my 2 cents. It could possibly software related. I flashed dark sence on insertcoin and my phone no longer prepared sim. Tryed it twice with the same results. If you have moded your phone then you should look into that possibility. If your phone is stock then definitely take it back cause you shouldn't have to deal with that.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] RatatoskMalice:
Same Issue

I am almost positive that I am having the same issues. It started when I flashed to CM10.1 on my T-Mobile HTC One. I loaded the ROM as usual, wipe data, cache etc flash, flash blah blah blah. Anyways not I have connection when I reboot, for about 5 minutes (if I am lucky) then it disappears. I have retried flashing CM10.1 and a couple other roms but still no connection unless I reboot, and I only get it for a couple minutes after that. Any feedback on this?

[HTC One Mini] CNexus:
You didn't type the second command correctly...there should be a space between "adb" and "/data/preload".

For the first command, run this instead (from your computer)

adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p32 of=/sdcard/boot.img
exit
adb pull /sdcard/boot.img

And then upload the boot.img that should be in your current folder on your computer

If I can dump the boot.img then he can dev unlock and I'll pass him an insecure boot.img through which he can gain root.

Or if he gains root through another method, then we can still dump everything.

There are two standards used for 3.5 mm audio jacks, OMTP and CTIA/AHJ. The Xperia Tablet Z uses CTIA/AHJ. OMTP type headphones will not work with the Xperia Tablet Z unless accompanied by an OMTP-to-CTIA adapter cable, which costs around $5.00 USD.
