no it shouldn't effect it. Was it doing it before you flashed the mod? all it does it increase the numeration set in the default setting. nothing else.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jazjaz92:
No it was fine up until flashing Cwm I flashed the mod immediately afterwards but didn't use the jack between flashing Cwm and the volume mod. After discovering I had no headphone recognition I flashed the revert back to stock zip.

you want to add a post here in the app section alerting Ultra users to that mod? Looks like it would work well.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
Yeah I spent a few hours last night looking into the system. It looks like all the mods should work with this .290 framework.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] spicemaster:
Mr hamdogg,

Most ringtones and alerts played on the phone loudspeaker sound distorted after flashing your zip.

But the headphone output sounds as it should.

So could you please provide us with an alternate version that only boosts the headphone output volume?

Or please let us know what values to edit and change in our ROMs (or your flashable zip) to achieve the same goal?

Much obliged.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] iBuzman:
^^ this is actually a z1 mod and not one made by hamdogg. The guy who made the mod unfortunately won't do a "headphones only" version (he's been asked heaps and heaps of times) :)

You must have received the only Z Ultra with a decent speaker :silly:

I just pushed this mod yesterday and, FINALLY, the Z Ultra is enjoyable. Mine was way too quiet. I prop my phone up on this little ledge above my sink to watch my shows as I wash up at night. The faucet would completely drown out the ZU. Now it's much better.

+1,000,000 to this mod.

By the way, for those of you without a custom recovery, you can extract the files and push them to respective folders matching the heirarchy of the .zip. Set permissions to rw-r--r--, reboot, and profit.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] dimex:
nope, it makes it self destruct
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
Sony restrict the volume on purpose. They would rather be safe having less output rather than replace speakers due to detached cones. In saying that you have about 10-15% play to still stay within safe limits. In the end its your call.

Hello I just go my S4 today. I downloaded goomanager because I wanted to install TWRP. It did not work. Now when I try to reset back to factory settings I keep getting a screen that says downloading do not turn off target. How can I fix this and get it back to the normal recovery mode?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] xBeerdroiDx:
i have no idea what carrier or device (i337 / i337m) you have.

when you got your device did you check in settings to see what build number you were running and then check out the material on xda before proceeding? there's ways of doing things that can save you headaches if you browse and read first. cheers
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
Dude, you pretty much hosed your new phone by not doing your home work before messing with it. I'm sure you're on mf3 firmware. Your best hope is to get it re-flashed at a bestbuy with the Samsung experience. You'll have some explaining to do! Good luck!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Wayneman101:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
You can probably get it to boot by pushing vol down when it goes to download mode. But your recovery is messed up now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ryno9100:
To the OP

I have the same issue. I manage to reboot the phone by turning it off, holding the power and volume down buttons, then when it asks if I'm sure I want to install a custom ROM, I hot cancel (volume down) and it reboots like normal.

Right now, I'm just trying to get mine back into ecovery so I can install CM
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
You're not going to be able to get it into recovery. Bestbuy is your best solution. Or wait until if and when an odin flashable firmware is available.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Wayneman101:
Im getting out of it that way too. But if I ever want to update or anything this will stop me i think. I can use it for now but I really want to fix it. nothing worse than having a phone for an hour and ****ing it up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Wayneman101:
If I can find an old one can I use it and then update?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
No, it has to be mf3 firmware and it's not currently available. Trying to flash an earlier firmware won't work. There is a qfuse in the phone's circuitry that is blown when mf3 is on the phone which won't let you downgrade.

Edit, I feel sorry for you man, messing up your phone in the first hour. You're not the only one. Here is what others have done. Read it all it might help. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=45359306

Yea. I'm with you 100%. I'm searching for a solution myself. I had CWM running fine at first, and wanted to swap to TWRP for an easier interface, and didn't do enough research. If I find anything, I'll be back on your post to tell you how I fixed it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
Sorry to say, but you'll be wasting your time. You'll find that there have been many, many people in the same boat for months now and the only current solution is if you can get bestbuy to re-flash it. They and att are the only ones who have the firmware available.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ryno9100:
Do they charge anything to re-flash it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jd1639:
No, but you'll have to ask nicely and they may not do it if they see you tried to flash a recovery. Bring the phone in on download mode and tell them it froze while using kies.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ryno9100:

Anybody know what trying to update to 4.3 will do?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
if your recovery is still broken, nothing. you can use the Odin filed for MF3 or find the thread about someone who use a recovery flasher app to repair before doing the update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Austie1337:
Hey... I jacked up my phone installing a custom recovery with GooManager too. It isn't for our phone. To get back to Android from DL mode just do power button+vol up+home and it will send ya back. Take it to Best Buy and say Kies broke your phone. You were trying to run an update and it messed it up. They can fix it for ya. Obviously you're rooted so just delete Superuser.apk and delete all root apps. Just in case. And don't be a derp and tell them the phone was rooted... Good Luck.

(Go back and hopefully they won't remember you.)

Does AT&T charge extra if I enable and use the mobile wi-fi hotspot? I notice a new icon for it in Apps that points to the Mobile Network Sharing for enabling it.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] homeslice976:
IF you don't have it enabled on your plan, this will just tell you to dial 611 to have it activated when you try to turn it on.

Unless you flash the mod posted in the development section, then you'll have native wifi hotspot enabled. Don't abuse it and you won't hear about it
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] StephenMSmith:
That's interesting. I don't have it enabled on my plan but it works. Does AT&T charge it separately if I use it?

Not if you don't abuse it. If you're not n an att base it will work by default
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Kompster:
I've searched around and haven't found anything like this so I'm posting to see if my fellow XDA GN3 users might be experiencing something similar.

Whenever I press on an email link either nothing happens or the it crashes the Android System.

It is most apparent in the Gmail app; I press on an email link expecting it to open a new reply window but instead it locks up for a second then it prompts me with a "Unfortunately, Android System has stopped." notification. If I long press on the email then I get the "options menu" Nova Launcher provided.

When I press a email link in the Chrome app it simply doesn't do anything, no crash, no gmail reply window... Just nothing.

I'm curious what is causing this instability. Is it Nova Launcher (suspect)? Is it Gmail? Is it something else?

Has anybody experienced this or anything similar? Any solutions?

I tried clearing the cache and data but that didn't work. I'm open to any suggestions.

Edit: Submitted report to Google, could be a Gmail issue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Borii:
Rooted/TWRP? I noticed email app crashing (amongst others) after root and twrp install.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Kompster:
This is correct.

Rooted, TWRP, DeOdexed Stock ROM

What other apps have you noticed crashing? Have you any clues on whats causing it?

I'm aware that we're in the testing phase of development, some things are going to be unstable.

So far the issues I've noticed aren't a big deal to me, it is just nice have everything fully functioning, operational.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rpenrod23:
I'm also running Freeza's rooted stock DeOdex ROM and have noticed that the native email app is VERY unstable. I set up my account manually so did not do a restore or anything else. I know about the issues with restoring apps from TiBu, but Viperboy has applied a bandaid fix with his TB Restore Fixer app, which I used when I restored my apps. Wondering if restoring apps is causing some kind of issue with the native email app?

Did either of you restore apps when you started noticing this? Again, this, for me, is ONLY an issue with the native email app; I've not experienced an issue with any other apps (that I know or or can tell).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] kronium:
My gmail crashes everytime I click on a Facebook link. Weird.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Kompster:
Nope, I only just minutes ago created my first Titanium Backup... My issue seems pretty isolated to Gmail (clicking any email address link) so far, I haven't noticed any other apps acting up. I'm just long pressing the link till I get the option to send mail, rather than short press and crash the system.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mike freegan:
This is the most useful review I have read. Thankyou.

TBH, its windows. It's gonna be buggy. I think they just send these out untested, safe in the knowledge that:

a) Buzz or Mamaich will inevitably patch, repair or find awkward ways around 90% of the bugs.

b) The average XDA user is a nerd and will probably follow those instructions/patches and *happily* put up with the buggy features.

c) Joe public isn't clever enough to operate a PDA properly. The average person is too stupid to realise that their PDA crashes itself. They think they're making it crash and are too proud to ask for help/consult the internet. They want a PDA 'cos all their work buddies have them and it makes them look important, using it for little more than checking emails occasionally.

d) Microsoft/HTC know that the kind of person who buys these PDA/phones is the kind of person who will always want the newest gadget, and so will forget about the bugs/issues as soon as the new XDA is released (with its own host of problems). Why bother fixing it when in a few months it will be old news and people will have something new to complain about.

PS, 02 gave me a refurb XDA2s when the insurance replacement they sent me was faulty. It works fine which only around 25% do so I'd rther put up with a refurb than complain and have a 75% chance of the brand new one they send me being faulty.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gubbs:
Sending this on the exec ..

I kinda figured o2 would be light on customer consideration. Hehe.

The phone I got appears to be alright now tbh. I have hard reset to corporate and it is light years smoother. In fact it hasn't crashed once in the last 4 hours!

Performance is fine now too. Still not as fast as you'dd like but it certainly feels more responsive.

I AM A DUMB ASS. The sim was in the box, it had been tossed in loose and was wedged between the user manual compartment lid and the inner structure of that fruity pandora's box.

I'm VERY impressed with the battery life so far.. Talking hours. Neato.

Of course the complete lack of developer interest/support in this version of winblows means i'll still not be keeping it unfortunately. Only Microsoft would release a next gen pda os and NOT include binary compatibility either natively or virtually.

So far haven't found a good free irc client that works. All either pay-for-fun or 2003se only. Bummer.

I have now decided the keyboard is useless. That + the wm5 software absentism means I might either trade for a 2003 xda or buy an IPAQ. Since they seem to have a vast quantity of stuff available: Including a LINUX distro.

With regards the keyboard.. Why the f00 they didn't consider half the number of keys correctly aligned and reasonably proportioned ... who knows. Maybe its like you say, this technology is just blingware and nobody seriously expected people to sit down and type a post like this one. Which, incidentally I am doing with the stylus!

Anyway my hand/neck/wrists hurt already.

Must decist for now.

for it is great

I have had mine three weeks and it is excellent.

The screen is clear and all functions work great.

I did not load the standard settings as this gives all the o2 stuff that slows it down.

Loaded spb pockect plus which gives as many features as i need.

i believe you have a returned unit.

I have purchased three phones from o2, the XDA, XDA11s and now the Exec and i have always had everything boxed and sealed the battery is normally partialy charged which is standard these days.

Your comments are the same as a friend of mine who ordered the T mobile option and his arrived like yours i told him to return it that day.

He contacted T mobile and his replacement arrived today boxed correctly and perfectly happy with it.

You have a 14 day return policy which some people seem to find a good way of ordering the phone playing around with it and then sending it back under the policy. This then will go back out to a new purchaser as O2 believe it is just a return as the customer did not find it to be what they wanted.

My advice would be return it now, tell o2 you are not happy as the box was resealed they will send yoiu a replacement probable overnight.

How on earth did you get that Tarrif??

'Ordered my XDA Exec yesterday on 400 mins cross network tarrif (£15 p/m) and the handset was £149.'

I have not seen this anywhere and iot sounds great?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gubbs:
Hmm ok, well I'll get on to o2 in a few mins. Have a cup of tea first - has been a long morning.

Reg. the tarrif it's o2 200 + free double minutes for six months.

It would normally be £30 a month but my employer staff contracts afford a (generous) 50% discount.

The handset is marked the same on the public o2 website ... £149? I don't think I got any reductions on that.

BTW I am typing this on the keyboard today and would like to admit as long as the surface you have it on is very level and very firm (ie not your knee or briefcase lid) then its not so bad.

I also need to google and find out what spb pocket plus is ..

Also you know, I am a pda n00b. I'm sure a lot of what I have said is entirely because I haven't sufficient experience with this technology. I don't pretend to be giving anything more than as-is impressions. :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gubbs:
Ok. Spoke to a nice lady at O2 - I think we had chemistry or something - cos she called me 'hun' and arranged for a replacement (new) handset straight away and bunged me £10 off my first bill. :)

Sweet.

I took it to my manager at work today who I know owns an XDAii and who is a SUPER Geek (tm). He informed me I am not using the keyboard right .. you have to hold it in your hands and type using your thumbs.

Doing this, with autocomplete by tapping the screen with a thumbnail produces some pretty impressive and speedy typing.

I also compared the screen to the one on his XDAii and frankly, it is noticeably smoother. Also in comparrisson the unit weighs in it's case practically the SAME amount as an XDAii (in real world tests not on paper I'm sure). It also found more networks on wifi, quicker than his XDAii and he has announced he wants one. Which would suggest, from a long term XDAii user, that these are a step up from that model. Well either that or he's viciously insecure, competative and fickle. I did say manager didn't I? ;)

All in all, its OK. I seem to get it very grimey tho. Must get some wipes.

I'll be posting a proper, intelligent, considered, non-reflex review on here next week when I get it up and running. I'll also be taking the pictures with the camera and what not ..

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mk1matt:
I've had mine about 2 weeks now and at first I wasn't that impressed. It was mainly that speed that annoyed me, but that's sorted now.

I did a basic install and removed all the O2 crap, well, I tried but it failed on the remove, so I deleted the relevant program from the startup and it's all good now. I went back to the Windows default theme as well.

I've got Resco File Explorer, MagicButton running and GSPocketMagic++, though all the features for GSPocketMagic++ are turned off (just having it installed makes it quicker, which is odd).

Screen flips are now down to under 2 seconds, which I think is reasonable. It now responds instantly to screen taps, whereas before it would have a delay of a second or so.

I installed spb pocketplus for a while but found it really slowed my system down. I think it was the battery monitor on the today screen that did it. It's now uninstalled and the thing flies.

All I need to do now is get some kind of navigation sorted and I'm fully happy. I think it's way better than my old XDA2.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Otto-Mate:
So, which install should I do then, basic or corporate?

Thanks
