Hi sashje!

Thanks for your comments. We were both right!

I figured it out after looking on WIVIT's website, their lineswitcher, in their faq they give the same info you did.

Obviously SMSGetPhoneNumber can't get the phonenumber unless you've already stored one. I was surprised that not all SIMs have them stored, but you can enter your own with the sim manager, and then SMSGetPhoneNumber works perfectly. See examples of my plugin in the Magician > "See your today screen" thread!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Doghandler:
Hi There,

Is there anywhere in the UK I can send my dead S3 (Chinese Dual Sim version) to get the software restored on it.

I accidentally wiped it while trying to install software and now can get nothing. Now I can get the screen to light

when pressing the power or power/up/home buttons but doesn't go any further into the start sequence.

Don't need to be told what an idiot I am, (already know that :o) but helpful suggestions would be welcome.

Any ideas before it goes in the bin?

Thanks.:fingers-crossed:

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lordaccess:
So I accidentally dropped the phone and broke the digitizer. So I bought a new one. I went to a friend of mine working in the service of phone repairs and told me that there is a chance after we install the new digitizer that it will need recalibration and that it will need to wipe everything from the phone to do so.

Do you have any experience in this process? Is what he says possible? And if yes will I need to re root the phone?

Thanks in advance!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] z-man79:
When I use my S4 to play Pandora through my car speakers via bluetooth, the volume drops to almost a whisper when compared to the car radio playing FM or Sirius music. In order to hear Pandora at all I need to drastically turn up the radio. When I disconnect Pandora the car audio volume is soooo loud I'm concerned I could damage the speakers.

In the past I've used Volume+ and Equalizer on my Galaxy Nexus but it seems both of these apps just make the volume lower not louder. Does anyone know of an app I can use to make the bluetooth volume louder so i can match it to the volume of my radio?

I just bought the phone so I'm rooted but it is the VRUAME7 version so I don't have a way of uploading mods through recovery, so please point me towards an app solution.

Thank you,

Z
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] reinaldistic:
In my opinion its the fault of whatever you are using to recieve the bluetooth (eg your radio if its built in) I have a car with built in bluetooth as well and mine has the same volume as the fm radio if anything bluetooth audio coming out of the s4 is waaay louder than what comes out the headphone jack.

I had this problem in the past and got nowhere basically the phone sends raw data to the Bluetooth reciever and its up to the reciever to amplify it (whereas with the headphone jack the phone is responible for the amplification) hope im wrong and someone has found a way though
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] z-man79:
Interesting, I hear you. I'll blame the bluetooth in the receiver but I am hopeful there is a program that i can use through Llama that every time I connect I can have the program go on and when I close the program it goes off.

I'm running rooted stock 4.1.2 (I9100XWLSW)

My phone has been temporarily freezing/needed reboot for a month or so, without any major changes.

I then did a wipe (Cache, Dalvik, Reset) then Odin going back to the previous build I9100XWLSS and all seemed ok. But then my phone crashed on the road and would not reboot, even after CWM factory reset. Did the same again and a few hours in it happened again, this time I had access to my CWM BackUp though.

How do I find the cause of this crash and burn, is it Hardware/Software?

Cheers

flash stock jb rom via odin from Samfirmwares and see if problem persists. If it does then take it too service center (make sure to remove any trace of root eg. remove yellow triangle)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H3llwar:
Kernel & Flash Counter

Don't forget to reset your Flash Counter if you have to take it to service which should be only your very last step, they'll probably check it even if there's no other sign of root eg.

If the problem persists after flashing Stock ROM again, try to flash a new kernel.

Which one were you using when the crash occurred?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tarkboffin:
For the moment I've removed Swype, which seemed to cause the stutter and lag initially. Swype works brilliantly on my N7, btw.

I then got rid of SetCPU, which I installed before the brick crash happened.

Never a good time to bring your phone back, but desperately need it over the next few weeks, so my last option. Daily TB backupthe until then...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] murphycr:
I've been running AOSP 4.2 on my S4 for quite a while with no issues. Upon trying to upgrade to 4.3 though, boots take upwards of 5 minutes and the baseband isn't recognized (it literally shows "Baseband Version: Unknown"). I then tried to revert to one of the various 4.2 ROMs still out there, and am encountering quite a bit of general instability (lots of FCs), however, the baseband works fine. Any idea what is going on?

I should add that though I am using the ME7 modem, everything else is MDK and that these symptoms are pervasive through several different ROMs.

Update:

When trying to switch to RUIM/SIM in the Radio Settings, I get the following logcat:

/CdmaSubscriptionListPreference( 1762): Setting Cdma subscription source failed
I/Use2GOnlyCheckBoxPreference( 1762): get preferred network type, exception=com.android.internal.telephony.CommandException: RADIO_NOT_AVAILABLE
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
have you gone into network settings and verified that your subscription is set to RUIM/SIM instead of NV?

Did you compile the AOSP yourself? What build are you using? Project Elite's baseband and network all work out of the box no problems. I'm not sure if they posted it yet though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] murphycr:
Yes; Whenever I do that I get the logcat I mentioned above and the setting doesn't stick (ie it immediately changes back to NV).

Edit:

When I retried, I got:

E/CdmaSubscriptionListPreference( 1618): Setting Cdma subscription source failed

No; this is with several 4.3 based ROMs including CM and Pacman.

Edit 2:

I'm downloading the Darkslide ROM to try to get that baseband installed and will keep this thread up to date with the result.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
Oh you aren't running pure aosp. Gotcha.

I was able to hold subscription on PAC, Slim, and CM10.2

Did you edit anything prior to install? Was your phone's data working just before switching to 4.3?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] murphycr:
Yes. It also works if I switch back to 4.2, but then other things break. Anyway, I'm about to flash the baseband you referred to, so I'll see where that gets me.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
the baseband used in all 4.3 builds I've used was MDK.

Me7 baseband is not as good as some people like to claim. It is buggy, and in my opinion it was rushed to release because Verizon wanted to quick kick everyone in the nuts. I tried me7 a few times and everytime I had worse spottier service.

The project elite aosp I was talking about is actually full aosp. And I haven't seen a post for it yet.

Another thing I've noticed in general... What recovery are you using? I don't trust CWM(any variation) at all anymore. I've seen too many installs act up and just not work right at all with CWM and after trying it on twrp 2.5.0.2 the same exact installer worked fine. :silly: I don't know why, but regardless the layout of CWM is piss poor anyway. If you are using CWM, click the link in my sig to go to my GE build. In the second post I have flashable recoveries posted. You can try one out just to see and if you get the same results just flash back to your desired/current recovery:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] old&slow:
I was having the same problem with my own cm10.2 builds. I blew out my device and vendor repos several times and finally decided that there had to be something in frameworks that doesn't like the dev edition radios. The nightlies wouldn't even work. I ultimately wound up using the official cwm (non-loki only) and was finally able to change from nv to ruim/sim.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] murphycr:
So you used the non-loki'd CWM to do what fixed it? (I presume simply having it installed didn't fix it automatically)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] old&slow:
On the dev edition, the general consensus in the beginning was that philz touch(cwm based) was the recovery to use probably because he offered a non-loki version. We don't need loki fortunately because of our unlocked bootloader. I later found out that official cwm was also not lokified. If you have the retail version, unfortunately you are stuck with the loki recovery. I was just suggesting that you might try a different cwm since they are not all created equal.:confused:

Edit: I guess what I was really trying to say is just try another recovery. Not necessarily one over the other (cwm vs. twrp). It's not the non-loki part that will make the difference. Hopefully you'll find one that works for you. But who would have known that would cause it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] murphycr:
I've tried both TWRP and PhilZ. Neither seemed to do it. At this point I'm just going to do a full ODIN.

Thanks for all the help though!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] old&slow:
No problem, I just hope you figure it out. There are too many people using aosp 4.3 roms with no problems for this to be impossible. :thumbup:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
I have an already Loki patched cwm touch posted in my list if you wanted to try it too.

I've found Odin helps clean all the garbage out though. So either way :)

Good luck!

Hey everyone! I have a basic question I would love to get imput on from the experts. I am close to pulling the trigger on getting an ATT Note II (sgh-i317) off of ebay. The plan is the get it working on Tmobile service. I think I have it all worked out, but would love to know if I am missing something important in my process. I would really appreciate any imput from you guys. I have experience with rooting and flashing custom roms, but am by know means close to an expert.

I plane to take the i317 and flash the 4.1.1 image so I can use the hidden menu to unlock my phone. Then I plan on flashing the Att mod to get the 3g/hspa+ working with my Tmobile service. This all seems very reasonable to do, but would love to know about any pitfalls I might encounter. Is this the straight forward technique it appears to be?

Next, I think I will really like to use the Wi-Fi calling available on the Tmobile service. So would like to either flash a custom rom (suggestions appreciated) that will allow the use of wi-fi calling on my sgh i317. I may just want to go all the way and flash the tmobile stock image. If I do that do I need to also change the kernal to tmobile, or is that also included in the stock recovery image?

You direction is much appreciated.

I've just gotten a bluetooth keyboard. But I've got a problem with using it on the keyboard when I have WiFi on.

With WiFi off the keyboard works fine, the keypresses are instantaneous. When i enable WiFi however, the keyboard becomes slow, rejects keypresses, and repeats keys. It's mostly visible when the tablet is accessing the internet while I'm typing.

Is this a known issue or a defect component in the tablet? Is there anything i can do to mitigate it?

Same issue here; there is a thread on Google support about it here: https://groups.google.com/a/googlep...757-9fdb-9b2c72b44804@googleproductforums.com

My "fix" at this point is to use the 5GHz band on my home wireless -- completely alleviates the problem. Unfortunately this is not a solution for all situations.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Beaverman20:
It's "good" to know I'm not the only one having problems. and hearing that using the 5Ghz band fixes the problem could explain why i'm not hearing much about it. I saw that thread. But the relatively small number of people experiencing the issue made me unsure about the cause.

Your comment that using the 5GHz band makes it seem like the problem is interference, which would make it a hardware design fault. That wouldn't bode well for a potential software fix.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] btitus:
Some people seem to think that it was Android 4.3 that broke bluetooth, however, I had 4.3 on my 1st gen Nexus and my Logitech keyboard worked just fine. Interestingly, I never could get a Microsoft BT mouse to work together with the keyboard -- I'd get the repeated keys, etc, making the combo unusable. When I'm connected on 5GHz with my new Nexus, I can get both KB and mouse to work perfectly together.

I agree, I think it's some kind of interference thing. Maybe it can be fixed with firmware? I don't know -- I find it hard to believe that the hardware alone could be mis-designed to conflict like this. However, I since I don't know specifically how hardware and firmware interact to provide functionality, I'm just guessing as to what's really going on.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Beaverman20:
I'm certain it's not 4.3. I've tried connecting the keyboard to my phone (which is on 4.3) and it works just fine. With or without WiFi.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] SubMatrix:
Just adding that I have the exact same issue. It can be alleviated to some degree with External Keyboard Helper, but there's still no hope when typing addresses into the address bar of browser (which will perform google searches as you're typing to give you autocompletion results).

It's definitely not simply a 4.3 problem, as I've tested my BT keyboard with a N7v1 that is now on 4.3 and it works perfectly.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Beaverman20:
So this basically means that there's just about nothing to do about it. that's a real shame.

Hello

I recently bought and setup a chromecast to work with my HDTV. I am usually tech savvy but somehow this issue has me stumped big time...

When I cast youtube videos from my Phone (i337 Galaxy S4) using the youtube app, everything seems to be fine. I can control all the actions (pause, forward, rewind etc.) without any issues. The real problem arises when I am done with youtube casting. For example, yesterday I was at 89% battery when I ended youtube cast and went to bed. I woke up to a dead phone... This has happened always to my i337 phone.

When I use my wife's iPhone-4s, everything is fine... Could somebody tell me if I'm doing it wrong? This has been very frustrating to say the least...

I usually end the video by following the below steps:

1. On my phone, I change the youtube video to "play on phone".

2. I then pause the video on the phone and quit the youtube app.

3. This stops the playback on the HDTV. So I switch off the TV using my remote.

4. I confirm that youtube is killed using a "Task Killer" on my android phone.

5. Go to bed with more than 80% battery & screen off.

6. Wake up to a completely dead phone causing missed alarms for work.

I have "Juice Defender" app on my phone, so looking at the logs I did not observe anything out of the ordinary. If I didn't use my chromecast with phone the previous night, I usually wake up to about 73% battery on my phone... So I think something is wrong here...

Help appreciated. Thanks
