[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] DAVIDJTAYLOR:
Please help, i am runng out of my 14 day return period with o2 (Monday) i am experiencing static with my new jabra bt250 headset. Is this a rom problem as with the orange m2000 or do you think it could be the headset. i was led to believe that all of the static problems with new htc devices were fixed. i need to know as if i have a faulty exec i need to get it replaced quick. many thanks david :cry:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] atekant:
I have the same problem with a Bluespoon AX.

If the two are on different sides of my body, static is unbearable.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] joebongo:
:shock: I have bought an AX, I've never made a call on my MDA Pro to date, and my mobile number is being transferred onto t-mob (and my MDA Pro) this Monday.

Can you explain a bit more so I can not look a complete tit at work please?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] daveb1976:
I've also tried with the Bluespoon AX and couldn't use it. I sold it to a friend who has a Motorola V3 because it worked fine with his phone.

I bought an (expensive) Plantronics Discovery 640 replacement and it's a little better, but still not great. Also concerned that the problem lies with the XDA Exec and wondering whether to take it back before my 14 days are over...

I know this sound very stupid but please try it!

Turn your universal onto it's other end! I have found that when it is in my pocket I place it with the stylus to the top..I get static using my Blue G2. When I turn the universal on it's other end, I don't get static.. Weird huh?

Also, I find that putting it in my back trouser pocket gives me more statid than in my chest pocket...

Has anybody else founf this??

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] davidberrysmith:
It seems to be an issue with the exec, reading around lots have encountered this problem. I'm sure they'll sort it out in the first official rom upgrade

;)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] daveb1976:
I'm sure you're right. I just hope it's not a problem with the hardware. Anyway, I've tried my 3rd headset now - it's the Bluetrek G2 (only supports bluetooth 1.1) and it's the best by some margin. Nice, because it's a lot cheaper than the other two.

Could it be a problem with bluetooth 1.2?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] ice_coffee:
it might be the positioning of the BT receiver in the exec, dont forget BT is 10M in open air not encased in an exec between a metal battery and a metal backed display screen (see image of taken apart exec in other thread )and through your body too
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] khaledelfeki:
I was using PDA2K before using the Jasjar, and I can say that the BT performance is far better than the PDA2K but this does not mean that it's perfectd.... it really needs to be improved.

I have also to say that not all types of BT headsets work fine with Universal, I knew from some of my friends using the same device that Motorola family is not working fine with universal.

I used to have a sony ericson BT headset when I was using the PDA2K and used it with my Jasjar for two days also, but I suffered from the short battery life of the sony erricson BT headset so I changed it with Jabra BT 800 and it works far better than sony erricson and I can say it's very reliable with the device.

What I want to say here is that the reception quality via BT headsets varry according to the type of the BT headset.

Moreover, the performance of the BT in universal needs to be improved and they have to consider this issue in their new ROM upgrade.

Hey,

as i am using Avatar Rom at the moment i tried to use Wifi hotspot. It didnt work (as i refer that it comes with CM 10.1 ). I read that tonyp was able to fix it, but i was just able to see the fix in his own build?

Is the Hotspot fix available separately?

Thanks in advance! =)
[LG Optimus 2x] vanko11595:
I also want to know this. :p

Cyanogenmod & gapps: After installing gapps, keyboard keeps crashing. Can't type anything at all.

I installed Cyanogenmod with Android 4.2.2, Cyanogenmod version 10.1.3-d2vzw

Galaxy S3 Verizon is the phone.

I've used the recommended 20130812 gapps for the version of CM I have.

If I completely empty cache, etc., and reinstall CM fresh without gapps, everything is fine, but I can't really do anything without gapps...

So, that's my predicament :(

Even if you can recommend maybe an older /newer version of gapps to me that's stable / for the GS3, then I can try that too.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dinodustin:
Hi everyone! Sorry if this is a noobish question or troubleshoot

I don't know what's going on but whenever I tried flashing awesome looking AT&T ROMs (JB 4.3 ROMs) onto my SGS3 T-999, I keep getting an error about some build prop thing then it says "Failed" I then try to Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache, but it fails so I would restart my phone back into recovery then resort to flashing a T-Mobile ROM to get my phone up again. Not sure if I'm wrong or not, but I've read that I'm able to flash an AT&T ROM onto a T-Mobile phone because of something. Anywhere I looked, AT&T and T-Mobile SGS3 forum I've found that it's okay to flash one others' rom besides the modem.

Is it the version of TWRP? Anything other than that?

If anyone could help me troubleshoot this problem, I greatly appreciate all who does :D:good:

Here's a brief summary for all. SGS3 T-999, read it was okay to flash ROMs, used TWRP 2.6.3.0 to flash AT&T [JB 4.3] ROMs, and only ROMs failed while flashing, don't know why. Google'd for solutions, but I guess that didn't work and took a lot of time. :confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Use AT&T recovery or edit update script to remove d2att asserts. Recommend editing over AT&T recovery.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dinodustin:
Just to make sure I undertand. Could I flash an AT&T TWRP recovery on my T-999 without any problems? So like, I got the d2tmo version on my phone, I could just put in the d2att one, right?

I also read in a ROM thread about changing the d2att asserts (maybe to d2tmo?), not removing, will it still work?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Correct on both. I don't recommend changing the recovery though. It will work, but I don't think it's a good idea to do it. Also, after flashing, be certain that you change the build.prop back to d2tmo. So things like Mobile ODIN don't brick your phone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dinodustin:
So edit the build.prop by removing the d2att asserts in it, flash ROM in recovery, then edit build.prop again by adding d2tmo to where I removed the d2att asserts? Or I might as well change all the d2att asserts in the build.prop to d2tmo then flash
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
No.

Edit the update-script file to remove (or replace) the asserts.

Edit build.prop to d2tmo

Flash the ROM.

You can edit the build.prop after the flash, but since you're already editing the zip archive... why do it twice.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dinodustin:
Okay, here's a screenshot of an updater script from an AT&T ROM (left) and T-Mobile ROM (right).

Do I change the highlighted on the AT&T one to look like the T-Mobile one?

And for the build prop part, am I only changing the

d2att

to

d2tmo

?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
That should do the trick.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dinodustin:
Alright, making some changes atm and I'll get back to you to let you know how everything goes.

Edit: so I'm still getting errors ): I got like a "Status 7" error at some point, then a "Status 6" when I tried to flash the edited zip. Any other possible solutions? Maybe extract all the files, edit updater-script and build.prop then re-archive? No?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mitchell0714:
I have installed the highway MF9 rom on my Sprint S4 and have a couple questions regarding a battery bug. The number will get "stuck" and will not move down appropriately as the battery dies. For example, I can go into the "battery" menu in the phones settings and it will say my phone battery is 82% even though on the notification bar it says 94%. I would like to reinstall a different rom but I have made customizations to my homescreen that I would like to back up and restore. Clearing the data and dalvik cache would probably solve a lot of these issues but I did not want to ignore the fact that this ROM has a bug or wipe and lose my settings.:confused:

Suggestions on how to flash a ROM on a brand new wiped phone (not the ex SD of course) without losing homescreen page customization would be very useful! I'm usually over on android forums but the Galaxy S4 has a lot more devs here on XDA so I do know how to do the majority of modifications without much explanation.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] gotablunt:
Try wiping battery stats in custom recovery. .?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] SixSixAtl:
The homescreen customization you've performed should be saved as data associated with whatever launcher app you're using, so assuming you back up your apps & data with a tool like Titanium Backup, you should be able to restore your launcher app and data when you flash a new ROM. BTW I've been running Highway55 MF9 for weeks and haven't experienced the battery [so called] bug you mentioned.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mitchell0714:
Thank you for the help, it helped me a lot fixing my phone. All I did was back up and format data/dalvik and install a new rom. I restored my data backup and loaded it up and after everything settled in the bugs are gone. Best part was that all my home screen customizations came back when I restored data.

My SGN3 is frozen in the middle of flashing this via odin. . The blue progress bar has been stopped for 15 minutes now.Odin is reading " "cache.img.ext4" and isnt progressing beyond that. Any ideas what my immediate next step should be?

UPDATE:

I pulled the plug, and get the big red "Fail" box in odin. Now my phone says "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again. "

I'm so screwed. Any help would be greatly appreciated at this stage.

Thanks!

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zedomax:
You can rerun ODIN in that mode, just try it again with another USB port/cable and turn off Kies in Task Manager.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidlover287:
I second this because I am HIGH on Android.

Try using the original USB3 cable that came with it. If you can help it don't use a USB hub either, these can cause problems (past personal experience)

[Google Chromecast] Alith V7:
Hi everyone, I looked everywhere on the help pages for Chromecast and a bunch of google searches but I couldn't find anyone that had this problem. I woke up this morning and first thing I did was turn on my TV, Chromecast was the last thing I was using so it was the first thing I saw. It said it was updating, adding Hulu I think, however when the update was finished and it rebooted it started the update all over again.

Not sure what was going on I let it play out, but it repeated the process again, and again. I've unplugged the device from the T.V., unplugged it from the power source and plugged it back in. I've hit the little button that is on it and nothing is stopping the update. I honestly can't even tell if it ever finished the update or not. I've also tried playing a video on my phone and activating the cast button but nothing.

Looking for any help anyone can possibly provide so I can get back to watching things on the big screen again. Thanks for any help anyone here can provide. :confused:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] geetmadan1991:
I was flashing stock rooted FW to my AT&T note II. i clicked on 'Nand erase all' in odin while flashing and there was no pit file provided so re partition was unchecked.

ever since that was flashed my phone does not recognise any sim card, IMEI is "null / null" and the baseband is unknown.

all my internal memory shows in the application manager window to be free but in the storage section in settings, i have 0.00B left.

if i access my phone memory through a file explorer i can write on my /storage/sdcard0 partition but system does not recognise it.

i went through many XDA topics involving how to write imei number, how to restore baseband. cant find anything that would help me.

i have tried to install stock rom again, different versions of stock roms. tried to use pit files and stock rom. nothing worked.

i tried flashing the modem again using custom recovery but that did not help either.

is there a way out or i have a note ii with no phone functionality for the rest of its life? :confused::(

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] cobraa783:
had this happen after a hard brick

pls read entire thing before attempting

this is the method i used to fix

ON A DIFFERENT COMPUTER/ OR UNINSTALL ALL PROGRAMS AND DRIVERS!!!!

You will need your Serial # and kies

after installing Kies and drivers goto tolls menu and select Firmware upgrade and Initialization (step one picture)

it will prompt u for your model # SGH-I317 (Step two pic)

after that it will ask for your serial #

then it prompt you to put you phone in download mode and plug it in this may take a few min and i would suggest going to the installing drivers. ie plugging in you phone in every mode so you computer recognizes it

once kies starts downloading to you phone you should be good to go it restart just like you pulled it out of the box

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] agovinoveritas:
I would love to try this out. However in my case the phone reboots way too soon for Kies to recognize it. However it does not reboot if I keep in on a MD1 modem, which of course will not recognize as a valid combination to get an update.

Sort of a catch 22.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] InertiaticFlow:
THANK YOU!!!! This fixed my issue. Late last night I posted about not transferring the rom files to my phone before I cleaned it off. Would only boot to recovery. The only ROM I had access to was will03's CM11 4.4 nightly. The last one I tried blew out my baseband and IMEI so I was hoping it was fixed in the latest.

I was able to get 4.4 onto my phone but it didn't recognize the Sim and the baseband and imei were unknown. The last time this happened, I used a back to stock pack I got off of these forums (Stock > Root > Triangle Away > Unroot) and that worked.

This was much cleaner for me since I was at work and didn't have access to my stuff. The only thing it didn't do was reset the flash counter, which is fine. I can do that myself.

Thanks again!
