Since our old thread has been closed down since it has been a while since the device has been launched and that there are no more new deals, I've made this thread so that we Indian users can discuss all about our phones (OTAs, Problems and other things)

Moderator, i know you don't want country specific threads anymore since the phone has been launched a while ago, but having one thread is better than making new threads for every new update samsung releases or every problem a user faces. Plus there are different offers and terms of warranty in every country so having a country specific thread will help many users solve their problems more easily
[Galaxy S 4 General] Aijazji:
Oops..
[Galaxy S 4 General] sasha007:
The earlier thread was so good :(
[Galaxy S 4 General] rgshah3:
anyone managed to get a MG5 OTA?
[Galaxy S 4 General] techfreakgag:
Nope. Not yet. Gives me the max rollout error. And yeah, it was utter stupidity to close the earlier thread and the reasons given were even more stupid. I just hope this one doesn't get closed.
[Galaxy S 4 General] darushah.shah:
Nope getting maxed out rollout, will try via kies...
[Galaxy S 4 General] Arjav23:
good to see a new thread

Dont know why the other got closed:confused::confused:

Sum1 pls contact the mod to open up that one

Also, does anyone know if its possible to get rid of the .qmg files of bootanimation and replace them by a .zip type bootanimation

i love to port bootanimations :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] venki5star:
I got it through kies. Don't see any difference. I kinda feel like the light unlock is little refined. RAM usage is less.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrw1215:
I have a Galaxy Nexus, running AOKP. I disabled the stock Calendar app and downloaded the "newer" stock one via the Play Store. One issue I've run into with this new one, though, is that it makes the notification light blink when I have a notification for the next event on my calendar. I always liked to leave those notifications hanging up in my notification bar, because it helps me remember that I have to do something soon, but I don't like the LED blinking all the time just because I have one of those sitting in my notification bar. The LED never blinked in the original stock app...

I've looked through the settings of the app, itself, and all I can find is a setting to turn off notifications altogether, but doing so means I don't get the little reminders up in my notification bar. Did I not see the right setting, or is there no setting to turn off the LED?

What's kind of annoying, too, is that the LED notification for these reminders seems to "override" that of other notifications. For instance, I have it set up in AOKP to blink different colors when I get notifications from certain apps, but the color for the calendar notification seems to take precedence over the LED for everything else.

Any other suggestions, or am I out of luck?

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robbieking:
Hey there,

I finally got the courage to root my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (P5110).

All went well. Put Odin3-v1.85_3 on it and shakatu_recovery-clockwork-unofficial-6.0.3.1-p5110.

After rooting i installed (as decribed on the webpage) a custom firwmare: cm-10.1-20130409-NIGHTLY-p5110

Everything works smooth and easy and fast (!), way faster than the stock firmware on it.

BUT: what happened to my internal memory? I only have a few apps installed (should be around 3 Gb), the same apps when i had stock firmware, but when i tried to install a game, it surprised my i had hardly any internal memory left!!!

When i go into settings and go to storage, the device calculates how much free space i got left. It shows me i have around 600 Mb left. Graphically it first shows it's almost full (grey bar), but later after indexing it shows the correct amount of free space. But the text underneath it remains around 600 Mb.

When i go into a file explorer and give it superuser rights, i can go to upper levels of the internal storage and there are loads of folders there. It seems it has something to do with the rooting or the stock firmware (backup or something)??

How can i clear more internal memory? Should I do some sort of wipe again in Clockwork Recovery??

Thanks for reply! :good:

BTW: swapping internal and microsd card memory is not an option for me.

Below i wanted to put photos what my device shows, but i'm not allowed to do so since i'm a newbie.... :crying:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PeterFdeVries:
Maybe a noob question, but did Google release one baseband for all the Nexus 4 devices all over the world? If that is so, why for example is Samsung releasing different basebands for different regions?

Can somebody who had an official OTA download post the number of his/her baseband? Just to check, thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
There is only one version of the Nexus 4, therefore there is only one baseband

It's correct that there's one, international baseband, but it has been upgraded several times. It though it was like this:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jj14:
Hi,

I read about the new App Ops (hidden) feature in the stock 4.3 that Google recently released to their Nexus devices. With the S4 that we have, I suspect it will be a while before we get 4.3 from Samsung/Sprint.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...ager-control-permissions-for-individual-apps/

App Ops basically lets you selectively disable some permissions for your apps.

I know that XPrivacy does something very similar - maybe even better because instead of just denying that permission (that may cause the app to fail), it feeds dummy data (like dummy GPS coordinates, or empty contact list etc). Unfortunately for me, the XPosed Framework that is required to make XPrivacy work causes one particular app on my device (Q-see) to misbehave (screen doesn't render correctly), and I really need that to work.

Yes, I realize that it is probably a bug in the Q-see app, but I can't seem to get Q-see to fix it. (I did contribute to the XPrivacy developer regardless because it was a very impressive app)

Anyway, back to my request

Can a developer take a look at the 4.3 code and see if there is a way to extract the code for the App Ops functionality and build an apk (or a flashable mod) that will work on the stock rooted Sprint S4? (I really like some of the features that the stock ROM offers - else, I would have tried CM and used their privacy guard options instead)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Steveomatic123:
Hi,

I currently am rooted and run CM. I want to switch my external card to a 64GB card. I did it and my S4 recognized it with no problem but my SU did not work. When I switch it back it worked just fine. IS there a process to safely switch to my new 64GB card?

I went into Clockwork recovery and saw a partition option but I don't want to partition it just format it to work.

Thanks!

Steve

Odd, it should work without any issues, but you could try transferring everything on the 16gig to a folder on your computer, and then transfer those files to your 64gig. That's what I did.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vbauer86:
I have to say that I'm really impressed what google has done with this update.

Memory leak is gone, With all my apps installed I have constantly about 200 mb free ram even with Apps that using heavy ram like facebook, messenger and so on.

Systemui lag also gone, no crazy lags in recents or lockscreen and I can finally use static wallpapers instead of live wallpapers.

Camera rotation lag is reduced by a lot and the animation has changed so you dont see that weird rotation anymore.

Stock launcher was never so smooth...I have to say i had never such smooth experience especially with appdrawer swyping. It's even better than nova launcher was before.

Performance overall has improved a lot i think it has to to with new OpenGL-ES-3.0. Gives boost to almost all Apps I have. Whatsapp scrolling through contacts is smooth, facebook scrolling was horrible at 4.2.2 now smooth and many other apps.

For me it feels like having new phone again. Before 4.3 I was thinking of buying new smartphone but now I will definitly stay for longer.

In this case I understand why pure google is always > modded Versions.

just my 2 cents
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nomad4ever:
Let's see if it lasts. I'm sticking with Liquid Smooth 2.9 for now, with Lagfix on daily early morning schedule, Seeder, Triple Turbo Boost Mod for extra 1 Gig RAM and so on. Until they release Liquid Smooth based on 4.3. ;)

No OGL 3.0, however, the phone is still a lot faster than before and also uses far less battery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liangse:
How much is "far less battery"?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kisrita:
I agree! I am so happy with this update, though it's only been two days for me so I may not have had enough experience yet to comment.

So far so good - I have not experienced any of the annoyances I found on 4.2.2: no nonresponsive phone when trying to start it, and so far (knock on wood) I have not experienced the crashes that would not go away on 4.2.2 even with nightly reboots and factory reset. Although I am not rooted now, and I have not restored all my apps yet (will restore after root).

I think the battery may be better too, because I forgot my phone in my car all night, after using it all day and then for 1 hour with gps navigation without plugging it in, so I expected it to be completely dead in the morning, but it wasn't! (Though it was close). I really hope this first impression lasts, but so far I'm really impressed!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] banditnich:
Btw guys shouldn't the 4.3 notification is different than 4.2.2?

Why my notification is still the same like 4.2.2... is it because of dirty flash?

Clean flash users... are yours notification different?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alton (Halo 2):
Scrolling could be better on 4.3
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Minccer:
The clock app is still super stuttery when you scroll through the alarms. On the N4 it is smooth and I am sure it is not because of the hardware.

Also if you start the stopwatch and swipe back to the clock it is smooth but not so when you press the lap button so that the red thing appears and then you try to swipe back to the clock. It is a minor thing but still..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pfmiller:
Why should the notifications be different?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SilentStormer:
The notification pulldown UI isn't any different in 4.3, the only difference is that apps can now tap into your notifications and display them just like the pulldown can. It's a new API.

Also, even if there was a difference SystemUI would crash if there was a conflict, it's not like some things would carry over and some wouldn't, it just simply wouldn't work at all. Lots of force closes.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] garuhhh:
How did it become a placebo in your case?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] VuDuCuRSe:
I have the same issues that the guys on page 10 posting screenshots shown.

After the reboot I have over 150MB free(chached) RAM but some hours/days later, that value goes near 50MB, phone starts lagging and apps get restarted.

Looking at the blue progress bar on the Settings>Apps>Running, I notice the biggest change is on the left part of the bar (system RAM?) not on the running processes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsomaniax:
Try flashing latest lean kernel. My battery life is definitely better than it was in 4.1.2 and 4.2.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rjzmanz:
I flashed the stock 4.2.1 and played with it a while then flashed Vanir 4.3, and Vanir ran much more buttery. I love it. quick even in demanding apps and doesn't lag as bad as it did with a screen recorder.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmoG530:
4.3 overall is just better. The only trade off right now, is that the ROMs available are starting fresh, so many ROMs are missing their core features. As much as I miss them, 4.3 is just worth it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liveMike:
I honestly think ive had slight data transfer issues for the life of my phone but a reboot has always cleared them up. I did notice them on the early CM/AOKP builds but not anymore as they seemed to have solved the issue. aokp is my fav rom but pacman rom is pretty cool. im having a blast with it as its literally cm+aokp+paranoid android all combined. it might be my new daily driver because i am getting so used to active display that i cannot live without it. just hoping aokp puts that in their rom soon.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tshelby73:
I've tried lots of 4.3 ROMs but on toro plagued with data issues since Verizon won't release the update to work with radios. Really bums me out cause I had good performance and Bluetooth works. Biggest problem that made me switch back to 4.2.2 is the tower hand off. Would always drop calls driving through town.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liveMike:
its weird that these problems do not seem to happen on all toro devices, just like 50% of them. I had an issue with 4.3 when the first cm/aokp nightlies were released but then in early oct the problem was solved and i havent had an issue since.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 96accord:
What nightly build of AOKP are you on? I'm on the 10/6 nightly. I might get the 10/18 build..

Like I woke up a bit ago and my WiFi was connected but not getting a signal.. :-/ I click on the WiFi button to turn it off and then click it again and it connects. :-/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tshelby73:
I think it has a little to do with how rural the area you live in. Where I live it's hilly and has to constantly switch towers and some towers are 4g and some are 3g and think that is where the issue lies.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liveMike:
I was on 10/15 and no issues what so ever. I did not update to 10/18 because a few people had some other issues with it. I am now playing with pacman rom (i switch like every week). I will go back to aokp when the run the next nightly.

This could very well be the issue although Im not sure why its impacting wifi. I do not have any issues since 4.3.1 but I do live in a city. I am very rarely on wifi but on 4g/lte 24/7.
