[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shanebabb69:
New to tasker here. Just downloaded it. Would like to replicate what you have done, but your screenshot doesn't provide me enough details. Care to share the rest or at least point me in the right direction or place where I can learn tasker and download a few tasker plug-ins to play with.

My Dpad in tasker is not available to me. Got a lot to learn I guess.

---------- Post added at 11:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------

BTW I'd liked to be able to plug in my headphones and tasker select the Google music play app, select a playlist, add shuffle, and set volume level to 15. Is that doable?

May not be the right place to ask this question. If so then request mods to just delete...

Thanks.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmike6453:
Sure, I attached a screen shot of the profile as a whole. The task named launch music is in my first post and the dpad selection is under "input" section in tasker.

Give it a go and let us know if you get stuck, tasker is tough at first but really good to know
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shanebabb69:
Thanks. I figured it out from using their online guide although looks like it was from an earlier veraion. Used multi app versus a single app.

Next one I think I will try is for tasker to run my onstar remote app to start my truck every morning except weekends during the cold months say Dec 1st through Mar 15. I think that would be pretty cool. But i would have to figure out how to easily disable it for those times when i park it in the garage. Also have to figure out how to get the pin into the remote app to start the truck. Not sure if it would be doable with tasker. Anybody in the mood to write an app? Ha!

Seems like I have to root my phone for using the dpad...
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] _kit_:
Hi,

I'm just wondering if anyone can help me with this problem:

I tried to update the ROM on my O2 XDA II Mini (purchased in Australia). I downloaded the Mini ROM (May2005) from the SeeO2.com website.

When I was flashing the ROM, the process failed on Stage 1 (the Radio upgrade). It asked me to reset the phone and run it again. I ran the ROM upgrade again and it succeeded.

Upon reset of the Mini, On the Splash screen, it displayed "NO GSM". The PDA worked OK, its just that the phone function didn't.

I tried re-flashing the ROM, but encountered the Wrong Country ID error.

After researching on here, I extracted out the executable files from ROM upgrade .exe file and then downloaded the MAUpdate.exe (or something like that) from here, I started the Mini into the Bootloader mode and ran the upgrade executable. On the screen it showed the current radio version as blank.

When proceeding to flash the radio, it would hang on 0% and eventually fail.

Can anyone help?? I just want to get it working, even at the factory ROM level so I don't need to send it away for repair

Thanks for your input!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] robiwan:
I encountered a similar porblem with radio and eventually got it to upgrade the WWE 1.12.10 ROM on the FTP. Good luck
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] _kit_:
Hi robi,

what is the link to the FTP?

When I click on your link it just goes to: http://ftp./ which fails.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] _kit_:
I've now got another problem.

I can't turn the XDA on at all.

When I connect it to my computer via USB, the LED comes on RED.

I can't turn it on using any of the buttons, even the soft reset, hard reset or bootloader key combinations.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] kuan090963:
LED RED means battery not exist or dead

Try to take off battery, and put it back again.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] _kit_:
Yeah, thanks. After leaving it connected via usb for a few minutes, the LED went from Red to Orange, and I could turn it on again. :oops:

In my testing to get the Radio Stack reloaded, I took out the Radio NBF file and the other two stages of the ROM upgrade process completed successfully. When run in isolation, the Radio upgrade process still fails..

anyone has any idea about this?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] voltron37:
yeah im having the same problem

all of a sudden my o2 XDAII mini started loading with "no GSM"

and i check my device information and there is no radio version

so when i try and update, well i guess there is nothing to update. so there is an error.

i was wondering if there was a way to install the radio fresh
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] _kit_:
Voltron,

I've tried different methods to try and upgrade or even reload the Radio Stack. I believe its a corruption as when I isolated the different ROMs and ran them separately, it upgraded successfully. it would show that the other components (CE and something else) were blank but that didn't stop the utility upgrading it.

I've just sent my phone off to MPS in QLD to have the ROM refreshed.

www.mpsqld.com, they are the only authorised O2 repairer in AU.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] voltron37:
awwww

im reluctant to do so

because my phone is like two weeks out of warranty or something

so if there are other methods id prefer to do try them first
[G2 General] sdsubball23:
What do you guys think? Should I get the G2 now or wait until a new phone comes out such as the S5? I know if I keep waiting newer and better devices will keep appearing, but I want to get the best of the best for a 2 year contract and don't want to be disappointed with a phone that has any big flaws.

As far as I know, the G2 has a few flaws I might be bothered with such as games not playing with good fps, the phone getting hot while playing games, video recording quality issues, lag issues in the web browser, and also unsure if LG will be supporting this phone with timely updates. All of these issues I've heard on this forum.
[G2 General] bullet2300:
Well if the S5 is coming in Feb/March/Aprilish like people are saying, thats already 4-6 months into your contract, if it even really comes out. Maybe they will wait until June like previous models, then you are at like 8 months into your contract. Will it have issues? Probably- basically all phones have issues. Are the G2 issues big enough for you to not be happy? Maybe try the phone for 14 days? I have noticed some lag in browsing with chrome. I need to test other browsers to see if there is a better one. I hope LG updates their phone as it's been very well received for the most part.

Phones are outdated so fast these days. I would recommend picking up a G2 for the trial period and see how you like it. There is no harm in that and it may surprise you. If it doesn't, return the phone and keep your upgrade. :good:
[G2 General] djsat03:
Really depends on how bad your current phone is. Current top phones that are in market are LG G2, Note 3, Nexus 5 (not in any particular order). Newer phones that are rumored are S5 and HTC M8, and probably a release date around March or April. If you can wait that long then wait. I jumped from Galaxy Nexus (Vzw), in September to LG G2, simply because it was great looking phone with specs and got for $140 on 2 year contract and I am glad I made that decision, this phone is awesome. Two things I wanted in new phone battery life and speed and this phone does just that.
[G2 General] oadam11:
Yea. I agree with posts above. The newest and best phones are constantly being released so it won't be long for an even better phone to come out. Even if you wait until the s5 comes out an even better phone will be released shortly after. I personally think that the lg g2 is a great phone and I could not be happier with it. This is my first android phone and there is definitely a lot to like about android and the lg g2
[G2 General] sdsubball23:
Some of the issues may be big enough for me, unless there are solutions to them such as software updates from LG. Mainly lag and gaming fps/heat issues. But I understand no phone is perfect. I can't get the nexus 5 because I'm on Verizon and I don't know if I want to switch because of the service and plan I have with them.

If I do a 14 day trial do I get a full refund of my money if I don't like it or do I have to pat anything? I remember one time one of my family members got a phone with Verizon and soon after returned and we had to pay for the use of service or something.

Also I currently have an HTC Rezound.
[G2 General] garywojdan81:
I think at this point in the year all of the carriers/manufacturers have their respective big guns out for the holiday shoppers. I really don't expect any other" must haves" to come until sometime first quarter of 2014, so wysiwyg for now.

For me, the time was now, in fact it's been exactly 2yrs; got the og razr the first day, 11/11/11, and moved up to the g2 yesterday (after a lot of research). What did it for me was the Verizon promo that ended yesterday. Got the phone for free and kept my unlimited data? win:win.
[G2 General] crawlgsx:
Go now and start enjoying. Better phones will always come out. That said I find it hard to believe (phablets aside) any phone in the near future will offer the performance to battery life of the G2. Sure a faster CPU may come out next year, or a phone may have a nicer build/body (HTC), but all around I doubt the Galaxy S5 or new HTC will offer anything of real significance over the G2.
[G2 General] g.lewarne:
The whole heat issue I think many people misunderstand especially if coming from a lower power phone.

These SoC chips have better GPU than average laptop integrated graphics, high clockspeeds and no room for a heatsink.

It is pushing 2 million pixels to the screen, per rendered frame. Of course its gonna heat up.....as long as it is within SoC thermal limits it is of no concern
[G2 General] blair287:
I have the G2 and notice none of this game lag or heat issue at all i dunno where you heard this?

I can assure you no phone has better integrated gpu than a laptop.
[G2 General] bullet2300:
I don't know how it works on Verizon, but with Sprint any phone you purchase has a period of 14 days where you can return it for a full refund. Sometimes companies may charge an activation fee of like 20-35 bucks. All carriers have a sort of "trial period" where you can return the phone, but they may each bit a little different. You could try calling your nearest Verizon store and ask them, or maybe try chatting with support online, or just calling Verizon's customer service number online.

The gaming lag may be isolated to a specific model, or maybe a user made certain tweaks, etc. Also could be app related and require the app developer to make a tweak for a phone, etc. There are so many factors its hard to say, but personal hands on experience is always best.
[G2 General] butthurtlocker:
Totes go for the G2

Take the plunge!! It's a future proofed phone man. I buy and sell phones where I am on craigslist and so have used about 80 different kinds this year. My favourites up till the G2 were the HTC One, Moto X and Optimus G. However upon using the G2 i experienced a fluidity and power I've yet to see matched. I mean sure every phone has is caveats but if theres one thing I know its that galaxy devices are known for there fair share of Lag. You can fix the G2's problems with some tweaks/roms/ settings changes. I've yet to have an overheating device when i play dead trigger 2 and nova 3 but not all devices are the same right, theres a ton of disimilarities even within the same model. If you got the cash go for it or the Nexus 5
[G2 General] craighwk:
I say now. What else do you need in a smartphone? The screen is fantastic, the battery is better than any standard device, the processor will handle anything for a very long time, and the camera is in the top tier.

What else do we need?
[G2 General] djsat03:
Since you are on Verizon, did you see the deal few days ago on G2? It was Free with 2 year contract.
[G2 General] DeaconBoogie:
The G2 is bleeding edge right now. There will always be another device "down the road" so you might as well have the best while you can. :)
[G2 General] fr8cture:
I have had not a single problem with my G2 when gaming in fact it is the best phone I've used for gaming by far. As for heat issues there is none. For some people they say it's get so hot that it burns them but for 99% of people it is barely hot to the touch. I guess it depends on your heat tolerance.
[G2 General] yyz123:
Exactly. I don't need a high end phone but I decided to go with the LG G2 because I think it's a very capable well-rounded device. Since I am also locked into a 2 year contract, I'd expect my phone to last at least for the next 2 years and I think it won't be a problem with the LG G2. Some of the mid-range phones I got previously felt dated 6 months later.
[G2 General] pimfram:
There will always be another phone on the horizon. But the G2 and other newer phones will likely have the same 800 processor as the upcoming ones and none of the "big three" out right now would ever be classified as bad phones. Get one now if you need it, or get one later if you want to wait.
[G2 General] coogrrr94:
I was in the same boat. I was thinking about waiting for the S5 as well, I had been due for an upgrade since June of 2012. I really had an itch to get a new phone so I took the plunge and got the G2. Some places say the S5 will come out in January, what if it comes out in the summer? It's a roll of the dice. One thing that made the decision easier was that this device has the latest hardware. ..

I'm happy with it so far, love the knock on feature, battery and customization.
[G2 General] sdsubball23:
Thanks for the advice guys. I'm still indecisive and the other issue I'm struggling with is that I don't really need another smartphone cuz the rezound I have has been working good for me. It's just I'd rather have a faster and smoother phone with better battery life and the latest specs. My rezound lags and the battery is terrible, but it's a great phone.

I was aware of the Verizon deal, but didn't go for the deal. One problem for me money-wise is that even if the phone were to be free, I'd have to pay tax on the full price of the phone because I live in California.
[G2 General] crashN2u:
For anyone wondering if they should get a phone, or wait, just buy the phone you want, not because it's the fastest or newest. There will always be new phones announced, and there will always be rumors. If you keep waiting, you'll never upgrade until you have to. That's what happened to me. I was a long time Motorola user, since the first Droid, but I waited and waited, and waited for the first Moto/Google phone, and was severely disappointed. The only good thing that happened because of all the waiting was I got a G2. Glad I pulled the trigger, and I won't be looking back.

How the hell did you keep your unlimited data? My wife wants a G2 now that shes used mine, but can't upgrade because we're grandfathered in. I had to buy mine off ebay for close to full price.

I believe Verizon charges a restocking fee of like $35, but that might be just the 3rd party stores, because I went through Verizon when I exchanged and they didn't charge me an activation fee or a restocking fee. This was through online and over the phone btw.

Verizon LG G2 for $10 with a 2 year contract, after tax, it will be about $60. Call me crazy but you will NOT get a S5 for anywhere close to this price when it releases. All phones have their flaws, I don't understand why you will wait for the S5 when it's not even announced yet. Why not get a S4 or a Note 3 then? After a few Samsungs and the HTC One(my previous phone), I decided to give LG a shot and Yes they hit a home run with the G2! The only thing that would bother me is the timely updates which LG has a bad track record of. But I would've gotten the Nexus 5 if I cared that much. If you're in no hurry to upgrade, I suggest you wait. But if you're really want a new phone now, treat yourself to the G2 or the Note 3. Currently the Two hottest phones right now.

Sent from my G2
[G2 General] sdsubball23:
I'm currently a Verizon customer so for me it'd have to be an upgrade and upgrades are $99 on Amazon. I wish they'd have it the same as the new contract price.

Thanks for the info on the 14 day return policy.
[G2 General] garywojdan81:
Why use Amazon? You can do it all right from the vzw website, if it's in stock, and pick it up in-store. All at the promo price.
[G2 General] AttyWiz:
You can keep unlimited on a Family Plan if you have or add a "feature" phone line ($9.99 talk and text). It involves transferring the upgrade to that line, using it and activating the smartphone on the feature line, and then reactivating the old dumbphone and asking VZW to activate the G2 or whatever on your unlimited data line. Google for very specific directions.
[G2 General] tacosrdelicioso:
Does it really matter if it's a feature phone line that you upgrade? I just upgraded a line with regular tiered data. The phone arrives tomorrow. I'll put the tiered data sim in the phone.. Let it activate.. Maybe make a call.. Few texts. Then I'll turn it off and then put my sim in it and put the tiered data sim back in the other phone and then voila. Should still work.
[G2 General] sdsubball23:
Well I was referring to the amazon deal specifically. But with Verizon wireless is still have to pay $30 activation + $40-60 in taxes so my total would end up being $70-90.

Anyone know of any legal ways to waive activation?
[G2 General] darksideauto:
Just about any top end device you choose is going to cost around the same for tax and activation. If not more. Take the leap.
[G2 General] sdsubball23:
How much did everyone pay for the G2 after activation and taxes?
[G2 General] darksideauto:
I'm on att. I added an ATT Next line to my account. I paid $38 or something like that for tax. The activation fee was $35 and was posted to my next bill. I then pay $27/mo. For 20 months for the device or I can pay off the balance anytime I want and I own it outright. If I pay off at least a year I can trade it in and start the payments over with a new device.
[G2 General] SKyRocKeting727:
The activation fee shows up on your next phone bill, I waited one week and then called customer service and had them help me waive the fee. If you get a nice representative, they will gladly waive it without any hassle. I'm on AT&T, my last 3 upgrades...all fees waived. No problem.

Sent from my G2
[G2 General] tacosrdelicioso:
I got mine free on Verizon with an upgrade. My upgrade fee was 30 after taxes on that it was something like 31..(Michigan)

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gags9999:
Hi everybody. I have just got my new HTC One and I am really loving it. But I seem to have run into a major problem which I couldn't solve despite trying everything. Whenever I receive or dial a phone call while using a wired headset or bluetooth headset, I can hear the sound in the headset for a couple of seconds but then the call is routed by default to the internal speakers and mic. All this while the phone shows that the output is going to the headset. If I change it to the internal speaker and back again to the headset (wired or bluetooth), everything works normally and I can talk and hear through the headset. This problem only occurs with phone calls and I am able to listen to the music through headsets normally without any sound quality issue. I have searched on various internet forums but all in vain. A few more people were having this problem but no solution was in sight. I thought may be an upgrade would solve this problem but alas even after upgrading to the latest 4.3 update, the problems remains. Hope somebody here can help me with this problem.
