[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitaltree515:
There is a small beep that comes from the charger (I have the same one). But the loud chime comes from the phone. The small beep is soft and quiet enough that I don't care about it. But the damn chime from the phone is frustrating. I have to make sure my phone is either silent or the volume is turned way down before placing it on the charger. But I need to hear my phone if it rings at night for my job.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrZ123:
Mine phone was on vibrate and it must have beeped 4-5 times during the night! (again not sure if the beep was the phone or charger)

I am assuming the phone charges to 100%, then stops charging, discharges to 99%, then starts charging again, hence the beep!

Some advice please!!
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] digitaltree515:
It does charge, stop, discharge, repeat, but from what I've seen with mine and the Rav the charger only beeps when you first put the phone on it (at least in my case) and the phone doesn't make its charging sound if the battery is above 90%. Have you moved your phone around on the charging pad? Maybe it's right at the edge of then inductors and the pad keeps thinking it lost then picked up the phone again.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrZ123:
Last night was my first night using it so will try to reposition tonight. Def heard the beep a bunch of times though and it woke me up as it is right on the nightstand next to my bed...

If you are rooted and have sqlite editor, you can go to settings storage.

Click the one that says com.Android.providers.settings underneath settings storage.

Hit settings.db

Hit global

On line 36 it says wireless.charging.started.sound.

Change the value after wireless...sound to "silent". Or you had mentioned a silent wav file put in the location and name of that file.

I used silent, but I guess "none" would work as well

Wallah! done! No more annoying wake the wife in the middle of the night sound.

[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aameghoo:
what would be the steps to changing the sound to a different sound? I want to use a wav file that is more so a subtle ping that can be barley herd but enough for me to know my phone is charging without actually having to look at it
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlmesq:
Have you tried settings--> sound--> uncheck the "Battery full notification" box? I use an older Qi charger and have

never

heard a peep from my phone at night.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djousma:
Its not the "full" notification that is the issue. Its the notification that wireless charging has started that is the issue.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phontek642:
Use the same procedure I posted just instead of "silent" put the path to the "tone" you want to use. Get astro file manager and locate the sound you want if you downloaded it the path might be sdcard0/download/sounds/beep or something like that.

If someone could post the original path to the sound it would be greatly appreciated. I think I want to add a sound back and don't have the original path...thx

This does not seem to work any longer after the recent update. I tried setting it to "silent", and tried replacing the file, nothing worked. I tried playing the original ogg file directly from the directory and it played silence (all other files played correctly), so something is not right. It's like after the update it's pulling the file from somewhere else. Really a pain since the alert plays regardless of the phone's sound state, now. I have the Tylt charger and if it's not sitting perfectly on the charger, it will randomly disconnect/reconnect, making the alert sound, and since I charge on my nightstand at night, this wakes me up. I've had to take it off the charger every night in the middle of the night because it keeps waking me up.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] echo12victor:
Same problem here. I was able to remove the sound before the update, but it came back with the newest Verizon firmware. I have been searching everywhere in the phone and can't find where the phone is pulling the sound file from.

The new sound file that plays when the phone is placed on the charger is located in /system/media/audio/notifications/ and is named Droid_Charge.ogg. I was able to create a blank .ogg file and rename it to Droid_Charge.ogg, but the annoying notification sound still plays when I put my phone on the wireless charging mat.

This has been driving me crazy! I have no idea how the phone is still playing the notification.
[General Questions and Answers] spetzie:
Excuse my ignorance but this is the first device I have rooted, installed twrp (find it easier than cwm) and installed a custom rom. I successfully rooted days ago and decided to see what all the hype about the omega rom was about. I installed v10 for my gt19505 s4. It worked perfectly (after I installed the wifi fix) and I absolutely love the rom. Then a new release v11 came out a couple of days later. Now I was sceptical about flashing this new version because it says it is based on firmware ZHUMDH6. Now this is where my inexperience shows. I installed v10 because it was based on firmware XXUBMH1. when I type the code *#1234# into my phone this is what it states I have. I thought that had to be the file I downloaded to exactly match my phone. Than I went on to read comments by people stating they installed v9 than v10 and so on so I started thinking maybe they are all for the gt19505 and just BASED on the firmware and not a requirement for you phone to match that firmware.

Is this correct?? As I stated it is working well (occasional pause and stutter at first but nothing that a reboot didn't fix- and wifi is working without the fix) So do I need to match the roms exactly to what that code stated (*#1234#) or just my model - ie gt-19505 international

Hope this makes sense
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathGrind:
Hello all. Sorry if this is in the wrong place. I recently got my girlfriend a zte overture on aio wireless. I've been looking at a method to root this phone and have found nothing. The phone is pretty decent, not even looking for a custom ROM (yet), just need root to bypass the Google hangout video call WiFi restriction, and to get wifitether working for her.

I understand that their isn't much demand for ROMs and what not for that phone. But with aio wireless going nation wide and the phone being only 150 bucks with semi nice specs and 4g, figured something's would start popping up for this phone.

Anyway any advice and help will be greatly appreciated.

ZTE Overture z995 - root method from other ZTE's?

I tried the Lumina 620 last week with Aio, and while the phone hardware was awesome the Windows Phone 8 OS was my hangup - (cmon guys, cant even add custom notification sounds? No system file explorer? The HERE maps are 2 years old or more in my area too...).

So I went back to Aio and got the ZTE Overture (Z995). (LTE Rocks! Wow I like the speed and coverage in DFW!)

It's a nice phone - low on memory, but it allows you to remove facebook with no issues, and the build on it is not too junked up.

Can anyone tell or theorize on whether other ZTE root methods work on this phone? I'd love to put a hosts file ad block on it...

Model: Z995

Android Ver: 4.1.2

Baseband: Z995T01

Kernel: 3.4.0-svn5856 zte-kernel@ZDroid-SMT

I have seen statements that ZTE doe not have a locked bootloader. I noticed in my phone settings, in system updates, it even has options for "Storage card updates" and the "Update ZTE Software" option seems to try to open a zip file on the SD card... so does that mean you could put SU in a zip file and just ask the phone to apply the zip to get root? I doubt it's that simple, but I thought I would ask...

I've tried using google translate on baidu to see if anything came up but man, it's tough to navigate that site if you don't speak Chinese...

Oh - This phone is $79 at Aio. I also asked what happens to us Aio folks when AT&T shuts Aio down to merge it with Cricket in the coming months and got blank stares... (we should be OK, they'll just move us into Cricket I assume. They people at the Aio store might not be so lucky.)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathGrind:
Haven't heard anything about a merge with cricket. Aio just went national about a month ago so that would be strange.

Anyway, I'm still searching for an answer to get root on that phone.

Want to bypass the need to be on WiFi for hangouts, which needs root to achieve.

I'll be sure to post if I find anything

Do a quick Google for "att cricket aio", you'll see the blogs and news about it... Who knows - maybe if ATT shutters AIO we can get an unlock code early for free. :)

(hey just a thought does AIO stand for "ATT's Independent Operator"? And would that be ironic, or an oxymoron? )

I must be tired, I've started making bad jokes....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 24br:
No ZTE 995 Overture root yet...?

I haven't found anything yet. It must not be an extremely popular phone based on the low quantity of hits I get looking around the net for info on it.

Which is weird because I really like it. I got over 5 days of life and was still at 30% when I plugged it in last week, which is awesome (less than 10 minutes talk time on it however). I wasnt sure how much battery life an LTE connection would take but it doesent appear to be much in standby.

I do see references to a ZTE blade and rooting them, and that thread (I think its in xda somewhere) stated all ZTE phones have unlocked bootloaders... and there are threads about the 990 (the Overture is the 995) being unlocked. But until I see someone play with their 995 I am not assuming ZTE left it unlocked. It is a phone on the ATT network so I would expect them to be less customer friendly. (qualification: they dont like you monkeying with their phones as much, but the customer service is tons better than a straight-talk type provider for sure)

I am just hoping I'll run across a post stating how to root it someday. LTE is awesome speeds, but it still burns me up to have to spend some of my bandwidth on video ads on youtube. Especially for something I would never buy and they show the same commercial over and over and over...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathGrind:
I also read that zte devices where all unlocked. But if my memory serves correctly, the guide on how to root zte devices found on xDA was for android 2.3.

Surprised that nothing has appeared for the phone. It was a cheap decent price with lte capabilities. Thought more people would be using it.

When I get a chance to tinker with the phone I will.

zte

Well I tried that Root Method and it seem to work fine and its pretty easy. Installed super user seems to be working fine the only thing that i am having toruble with is getting the wifi tether to work (im using WiFi tether- TrevE Mod) got it installed and all but when i turn it on it gives me a message tethering started with errors to go to the show log.. I do that and in the show logg everything looks fine except a section named "Enabling NAT rules..." that says failed any suggestions????
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NomadSpin:
Never played much with wifi tethering but usb tethering works. I used foxfi free, however they cut off at bout 45 mb then ya need to restart it. Tried a few others with lil success so far. Gota like AIOs tethering policy, or lack of. :)

Good to know this will root, cept now I get to figure out why it wouldnt for me. You used oneclickroot? Did you install the drivers manually?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chuco10:
Yes I did install the drivers manually I was having trouble at first for some reason it would get stuck on on of the processes but finally got it. I the only thing is that im having toruble trying to tethering i dont know why have not tried the usb method might try that dont know if i would be abel to used it with my playstaion.. thats the main reason i was trying to tether..

Any was I was reading that that the erros message that it gave me in my show log.. (Enabling NAT rules... Failed) had something to do with the kernel not supporting wifi tether that i would have to flash a different kernel in the phone any suggestions??

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 24br:
so, what actually works?

Ok, just so I read the thread correctly, the one click root site DID work for getting root, but the other referenced thread talking about rooting the blade has not been proven to work on the 995/overture, correct?

One click pops up frequently in my searches for root, but I thought it involved downloading a windows app and paying $30 to some unknown website. If that is true then I'll wait till another method is posted. I won't risk running an app unless I know what it is really doing to both my phone and my PC. And I am certainly not forking out $30 for it.

It seems risky and, well, not in the spirit of xda... I mean isn't it more about learning how it all works, discovering how to do it on your own, and working with fellow xda'ers to develop and vet a good (transparent) process for root?

If one click works well and you don't mind the cost and not knowing what their software is really doing, then that's ok. There's no right or wrong here in my opinion.

I just don't see it as being as much fun or as safe a way to get to root...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NomadSpin:
Says free http://www.oneclickroot.com/phone/zte-overture/ i was never prompted to pay.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 24br:
cool.

Well then I guess the reviews on their forum were incorrect then... When I looked thru their blog there were comments stating it asked for $$ at some point. Aside from that there were tons of complaints about unsupported phones... And maybe one or two happy posts out of 20 bad ones.

I'll give it a closer look then. I know I can sandbox the application in a VM, so maybe I can get a backup of the phone before I play with it w/o using clockwork as well.

Will post what I find... Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 24br:
OK, who actually got oneclick to work? And has anyone used the blade thread sucessfully?

Also, if you read the legalese when installing it, it clearly states the payment for service must be made to a canadian recovery company, and that you release all rights, etc etc. I did notice any legalese on privacy was missing, which I expected to see. There is a license tab with a space for activation codes as well. (i.e. it's definitely a paid app, but trying to find out how much is difficult, its not on their website anywhere.)

And I can verify the oneclickroot tries to see the device (goes thru identify, validate, download, install), but always throws up a "Please confirm your device is connected - install ADB manually" box. ADB Driver links bounce you to the ZTE news page that has a link for an older "ZTE 3G adb driver download" which gives you a file - "ZTE_Android USB_Driver_For_Microsoft_PC.rar". And after installing that, I still don't have any luck getting the solution to work.

I suspect those first few "steps" in oneclick root are bogus as well, because if you

don't have any phone connected

and start the process, it still goes through the "Identify, validate, download, install" steps.

For the phone, I noticed that while I can choose from several different options for connections in settings (Charge Only, USB Mass Storage, Install Driver, Connect to PC Software, Media Device (MTP), and Camera (PTP) ) several of those options show a failure in windows for the "Android" driver. That said, I have no problem using or connecting to the phone as a media device, camera, or mass storage device, so I'm not sure what the "Android" device driver that keeps failing is supposed to be for. Maybe that's what is preventing oneclickroot from going further, but I have no way to tell at this point.

So I would recommend at this point to stay away from it. Overpriced, does not work (even though it attempts to appear it is doing something), and privacy concerns are not addressed in their legalese, as well as we still have no idea what their executable is actually doing to the phone or the windows host, and they wont clearly state what it costs.

HUH thats wierd i got mine to work no problem and never asked for no payment nothing.. The only thing that i cant get to work is the wifi tether still having problem there any suggestiongs..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NomadSpin:
There may be an app blocking mobile hotspot like tmobile puts on there phones. Seems unlikely since AIO told me they had no problems with tethering but never know. Pick up an uninstaller from the play store an look through all the apps.

Only other suggestion i can think of right now is trying the different wifi tethering apps available.

Maybe one of these days we will get a dev in here making custom ROMS, can only hope. :fingers-crossed:

This may be something http://androidforums.com/force-4g-lte-all-things-root/702172-wifi-tether.html

rooted, tethered, and almost out to the net...

Yep, that worked for me. (although I haven't tried anything other than adblock and ES file manager really). I found ES file manager has a menu (network manager area) to enable wifi hotspots... that sort of worked, but I couldn't get an IP from my tablet.

So I switched to Chainfire's tether app and I get an IP on the tablet now. CF's app states root is required in the status and it says it is working.. however I can't get to the Internet from attached clients still. Fing shows the ZTE 995 with an IP address (and shows port 2020 is open, not sure for what, maybe uPNP?) on a 192.168.42.1/24 network.

Not sure what's missing - perhaps something routing related on the phone. I haven't tried usb tethering - I don't think this phone has ever shown up as a network interface so I will have to look around on how that works.

Thanks for the info guys! Root is nice. :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathGrind:
USB tethering works fine. Gf uses pdanet to do that.

Ive been trying to figure out how to get WiFi tether to work, but no luck.

The error in tethering seems to be kernel related. I can't remember the one error that was always persistent no matter the configuration if WiFi tether for root users, but after doing some research is what led me to believe it was kernel related.

Funny thing is if you go to zte's site and look at the FAQ for the overture, it stats it has hotspot ability, and how to use it My guess is aio crippled it.

Also there is a short cut app in the market for native WiFi tether which takes you to the setting area where it should be. You can start it and its called tetherfallback, devices will connect but there is no internet activity.

Hopefully someday tethering will get figured out.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathGrind:
Enabling NAT rules is the persistent error.

Also in the new WiFi tether I got from their google site the option native tether framework allows the ssid of tetherfallback to be seen, but no luck connecting.

I wonder since the unbranded version allows tethering if it can be enabled by modifying a system file. Aio removed the option for tethering, but I wonder if it can be "re-enabled" somehow. Could be if it was disabled at a software level. Either that or kernel.

Maybe some genius will pop in here and solve this :D

Aio Wireless

I'm a little late to the convo (just found this site), but I just wanted to say, I talked to someone at Aio about the merger with Cricket and they said that nothing is really going to change, just the look of the stores in the areas that have Cricket. I'm in the Denton area and there is no Cricket here so he said that there would be no change at all here. It sounds like the Metro PCS and T-Mobile merge where the change was minimal! Again, that's just in MY area, I'm not sure how big the change will be in those areas that do have Cricket.

Well, the Kingo app got me root, thankfully this is just a temporary phone for me... the lack of even a CM build and a CWM/TWRP would kill this phone for me as a full time phone after being used to my other phones that all had crazy amount of ROMs.

Surprisingly, I kind of like the phone itself, it's snappy and cheap. Battery seems to last a long time too I'm at 68% and 18h 45m from my first full charge.
