For anyone wondering the sound quality for Bluetooth is 1000 times better on 4.3.

I tested this on 3 different stereo headsets with beats enabled and disabled. It is extremely noticeable how much HTC/Google improved Bluetooth quality on the latest update.

This makes me so glad as Bluetooth quality with 4.2.2 was extremely lacking.
[One (M7) General] futuregerald:
Is it better than the bluetooth A2DP support in the sense version of 4.2? because I use that dialy in my car and have been waiting for them to improve the quality or mods to this effect since I got the phone. I would install 4.3 and give up zoe's just for this.
[One (M7) General] LockeCPM4:
OK just got done doing a side by side comparison with a stock sense HTC one, and quality is about the same.

I did notice that enabling beats on a stock HTC one has more bass than my GE but not much.

On a clarity and volume level they are nearly identical.
[One (M7) General] jasunto:
Mine actually shows song info on my car display now.
[One (M7) General] crogue5:
Any Bluetooth improvement is a plus! Thanks for sharing.
[One (M7) General] henrybravo:
This has been working since the Sense 4.1.2 ROMs but glad to hear it's working on GE now.
[One (M7) General] dagamer34:
AVRCP 1.3 support from Android 4.3. Already implemented in HTC Sense.
[One (M7) General] godutch:
How about info from Spotify, does that work for you?
[One (M7) General] LockeCPM4:
I just noticed something a bit ago. I was cleaning out my garage and listening to some music using my Motorola S9 HD stereo headset, and took some garbage out to the road and the music was not cutting out. I left my phone in the garage and the road is about 100 feet away from where I took the garbage. I have never had this kind of range before.
[One (M7) General] attahayee:
thanks

Thanks guys i was holding back on 4.3 now it seems its a must because i use Bluetooth all the time in my car
[One (M7) General] Gorsty:
Don't wait anymore, you won't regret it! I use bluetooth in the car all the time, and this is so much clearer and reliable.
[One (M7) General] attahayee:
thanks

and the scary process begins :D changing the mid is such a pain, i'm sweating right now. I'm gonna go with the OTA update with this one. the dumps at the xda are being reported for problems.
[One (M7) General] earlyberd:
Can anyone confirm if the sound quality is comparable to using A2DP with aptX on Sense 5? I currently use the HTC Car A100 Bluetooth dongle for streaming music, and when I was on the stock Google 4.2.2 ROM it sounded horrible.
[One (M7) General] PapaRhino:
Can we finally use Dualshock 3 controllers???
[One (M7) General] blamdroid:
I use a Belkin bluetooth audio adapter and the sound is comparable (4.3 GE vs 4.1.2 sense). Don't know about 4.2.2 sense though. I don't have a custom stereo but it is a decent stock system. Is there a way to see if you are running adp?
[One (M7) General] SLver:
I remembered try it today, and YES, it is working now :victory: :highfive:

well, the app said it works, I need to test it with the control... LOL
[One (M7) General] PapaRhino:
Just tried it out myself, works perfectly, thanks! :D
[One (M7) General] earlyberd:
I think I'll go ahead and test it myself and report my findings. I can connect the HTC car adapter to a pair of headphones, which should give me a good comparison environment. My new car also has built-in Bluetooth with support for A2DP, but since I've had the HTC car adapter for longer, I figured I'd be better off using the HTC adapter instead.

For what it's worth, Sense 5 using either 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 has the same sound quality since aptX is present on both, but I think CSR's "CD quality" claim about aptX might be bogus. I spend most of my time streaming Google Music at 320kbps (a.k.a. high quality) in the car, so if the Google ROM can stream ~320kbps over A2DP without the need for the proprietary aptX, I should be fine.
[One (M7) General] earlyberd:
The Bluetooth on 4.3 is still using SBC instead of aptX, and there is a noticeable drop in audio quality when doing to 4.3.

However, it isn't really a deal-breaker for me. I'll probably end up just running an aux cable to my phone instead.
[Sony Xperia ZR] IJskonijn22:
I have a question about custom roms and root for the Xperia ZR.

Since the hardware of the ZR is almost identical as the Z,

would it be possible to just flash a custom rom made for the Z to this device?

And if this is not possible, the porting process would be easier right?
[Sony Xperia ZR] CressKH:
You may find your answer in the post here

[Sony Xperia ZR] djpeesh:
DO NOT FLASH XPERIA Z ROMS ON THE ZR. YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE
[Sony Xperia ZR] IJskonijn22:
I don't understand why?

The hardware is almost the same..

Would there a porting guide around wich instructs how to port from Xperia Z to ZR?
[Sony Xperia ZR] chewdaniel:
i'm guessing probably the screen drivers... that's the one single most significant difference anyway
[Sony Xperia ZR] IJskonijn22:
Well, it wouldn't be too hard to port roms from Z to ZR right?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 7wajahat7:
The default charging current is 1000 mA. However, some kernels like Adam kernel say it is ok to get it to 1470 mA. I know that increasing charging rate causes faster battery drain. Is it ok to get it to 1200 mA or any other suitable current?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Don't go above 1470, which is the real limit, however yes I'd settle at 1200 if I were you. USB is the trickiest. When you force more than 500 out of it, you could damage the computer's internals as they are designed to output 500 but often do not cut off if forced above, so be more moderate with that.

...and the science behind that is?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Yes but thats different. You worded it in a way that made it seem if you charge fast, it drains fast.

What you actually mean is the faster you charge it, the quicker it wears out.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EricGagne:
Please forgive me if this is a dumb question but can I use the ROM from different provider in my tablet ?

I have a P7500 with canadian provider videotron who will not upgrade to ICS or JB. I've been trying without success to use CM 10.1 but I'm wondering if I could flash with an official rom from another canadian provider and upgrade via kies or ota.

I'm assuming everything should be compatible since videotron and rogers both use hspa+ network but are the roms from sammobile unlocked ? Would their Rogers rom work with my Videotron sim card ?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexmoi:
well im using a custom rom with rogers provider

custom roms are not provider dependant.

even using the voice call modem (baseband) and it works great.

i dont see why not..but recovery from odin should not be a problem

in other words difference between rogers p7500 and videotron p7500 is it's bloatware that is not in custom roms
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EricGagne:
My question is not about custom roms, it's about the official roms available at SamMobile. Are they locked to their providers ?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruidh:
Now this is troublesome. I have a GT-I9505. I rooted and installed TWRP. I backed up my ROM before I began.

I've tried flashing two ROMs so far:

StockDroid_v6_m3dd0g.zip

I9505_-_Google_Edition_Final-v1_by_Jamal2367.zip

I followed the recommended procedure. Boot into recovery. Wipe ("Factory Reset Wipes data, cache and dalvic not including internal storage. Most of the time this is the only wipe that you need.") install rom and reboot. Both times the boot animation with the four colored circles coming together to form white and separating into four colors went and the blue notification light came on. But I left the phone like this for 20 minutes and the roms never booted.

I'm at a loss as to what to try next.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malybru:
Hi,

I have had success flashing those ROMS with PhilZ recovery.

It might be worth a try.

:)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruidh:
Thanks for the suggestion. I ended up used the advanced wipe menu and wiping a little more. I reloaded the ROM and it booted. Third time the charm.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wedouglas:
My friends HTC One is experience some problems with recording video. It happened a couple weeks ago and has been broken since.

When you press record, the video/still buttons remain on the screen instead of changing to the red recording dot, and after about 5-10 seconds it just closes/crashes back to the home screen without having recorded anything. Strangely it does this in all video modes except slow motion. Slow motion video recording seems to work. It also takes stills fine. I've tried playing with various camera settings/combinations, but it just does the same thing every time. I tried closing all kinds of application, rebooting, etc. Nada,

I haven't done a hard reset yet because I'd rather see if there is a solution before going through the trouble of backing up everything and re-installing stuff.

Anyone else have this issue? Any solution to this?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllAboutTheCore:
There might be but you'll need to throw up some more info, like what you'd done before it stopped working and what ROM you're using etc. A reflash of whatever ROM should sort it out.

After I tried to downgrade my Qtec2020 from WM2005 tot WM2003SE the updated stoped in stage 1.

Is there anybody who could help me

:(
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Rayan:
I've never performed any downgrades from WM5.0 but I have an idea that could work?

Install WM5.0 again, then perform a Hardreset but this time perform the Registry and Storage format (press power+record+camera+reset pin for about 5 seconds and you should see a menu on the screen, by using the record button to select an option and camera button to change to YES. It should be NO, YES, YES and press ACTION button to save changes). Then unhide the Extended ROM and erase anything in there.

Then perform the downgrade to WM2003SE.

I hope this works for you...

Rayan

I have placed a ROM.nb1 on my SD card, but I get a eror with the XDA OS Image Tool. It looks that I can't find any way to get out of the bootloader mode whatever reset I tried. The battery was out for almost 12 hours but this also makes no difference. Is there a other way to flash by SD card or is there a way to reset/upgrade the bootloader mode. I think the bootloader mode hangs or is corrupt.

Is it possible to install the bootloader again or upgrade it. I think my problem is the bootloader.

Does anybody know whether there is a way to decode the LED blinking codes? I can't boot my daughter's Sensation XE any more. Whenever I plug in the usb cable, I see an orange LED come on for a few seconds, but then it dies. If I leave the phone plugged in for longer times, the light sometimes comes back for a few seconds, and every now and then the phone also vibrates once. But those are the only signs of 'life' I see. I've tried everything I could find about this on the internet (other battery; power-sound button combo; blocking middle two connectors for battery with bandaid; different order of plugging in the usb-cable, adb shell reboot), but nothing seems to work. Long story short: if anybody can tell what the orange led and the single vibration every once in a while actually mean, I'd be grateful!
