[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mark1s:
I'm still having the issue today.

I called back Fido and they tried different things like desactiving/activing back my line, "updating my line" and more without any success.

Then I called google and told them the problem. They will change my Nexus 5 for a brand new but at the same time I feel like it is a software issue and not an hardward one... Well, we'll see, I never had a problem like that with any other phone before and the Nexus 5 never had any problem with 3G before yesterday.

I haven't tried everything yet, maybe you could try :

If you are in a LTE area, can the Nexus 5 connect itself to this network? Nearest LTE area from where I live is like 40 minutes away, bit too far just for a test.

Try with a sim card from another company like Telus or Bell, is the phone connecting to the 3G network? (I though about this while calling Google..)

Well, hope that the next phone will be ok.

Here are the few pictures just to show you a proof that even when I request a webpage, the phone will stays on 2g only.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b.spec:
Thanks for the update mark1s. Definitely let me know if a new phone fixes anything, although I'm also thinking it's a software problem.

The problem could just be that there happens to be patches of low coverage in the areas we're testing this out, which seems unlikely in big cities. But testing at work seems to have this problem, but testing this at home I pick up 3G and H+ just fine. Odd..

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipfreelytech:
That's the stock recovery, it doesn't have adb support so nothing special there.

What didn't work out with the GPE conversion RUU?

Are you running windows 8.1? were you using a 4.3 sense rom prior? because windows 8.1 doesn't work right with hboot lower than 1.55. Sense RUU are up to 1.55 but GPE is still 1.54 so you may have downgraded hboots.

What do you get in device manager?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
Just for testing, please get a Windows 7 machine and try again. As [MENTION=2574748]ipfreelytech[/MENTION] said, HBOOT changes cause the driver issue on Windows 8.

Also

means something didn't finish flashing OK.. Since you are S-Off, you have a better chance to fix your device.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scrowlerfly:
It was stuck in the loading screen. So I installed this current rom that I am on...and now I can't get onto recovery to flash another rom!

I am running windows 8.1. I was using totally stock 4.3 sense before. But wanted to move over to GPE.

I just tried a windows 7 machine and fastboot didnt work on that either.

Any other things to try?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TecknoFreak:
Hello guys,

I have done many of reverse engineering for other electronics in the past, Since Im new to android I was wondering before even wasting my time if is possible to port, or built a rom from sources or a phone thatis NOT External SD built in to a phone that it have the external sd built in.

making it short can I try to reverse engineer the android code from a Nexus 5 (no ext_sd) to other device that have ext_sd built in?

If is possible where should I be looking to start trying making some development on this as I havent done nothing close quite

thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
I'm not quite clear on what exactly you want to reverse engineer, what part of the Android code do you want to reverse engineer as the source code for the Nexus 5 is part of AOSP (Except for proprietary Google apps which can be downloaded separately) whose source code is freely available. Are you trying to compile AOSP (Android Open Source Project) for a new device? If you can provide me with some more details I'll be happy to help you out.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TecknoFreak:
OK sorry for the way I explained it. I wasn't clear. Lol

What I'm trying to investigate is on how to port ROMs from devices that doesn't have an external SD card like for sample Nexus phones to phones that have that build in and make the port to work with external SD mountable.

Reason ibask is because there are many devices here with decent ROMs and I can give to this community a decent amount of ported ROMs to the devices desperately needing development. I know of like 15-20 devices that I already made a ported rom but with no external SD mountable due to the nexus phones and other good ones doesn't have external xd.

If I knew what files to mess around to give them external SD mount options many will be happy with there devices even thought at least they have some ROMs to play with.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
I understand now what your saying interesting concept. I am by no means an expert in the subject but for getting external SD mountable to work properly one thing you could check is editing the ROM's boot.img and checking the fstab.vold file that mounts and defines how all the device partitions should behave on boot-up initialization. What you could do is make sure that fstab.vold has an entry to mount the external SD card if it doesn't you can add an entry in to mount the SD card.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TecknoFreak:
At least for the newest ROMs I will like to mess with are 4.3 roms and aosp 4.4 and as you know there is no fstab.vold any more on these android versions. I also made sure the kernels I will be using have ext_sd commits to it and have edited few but didn't helped. What will be the replacement file for fstab.vold mount properties?

Thanks so much for your help and even with this you will be credited to make possible my little project.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
For Android 4.3 and beyond fstab 2 is used I would recommend taking at this technical overview of the new Android external storage techniques. Glad I could help you even a little it's what I'm here for :cowboy:.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TecknoFreak:
Thank you so much for helping me and taking me to the right direction.

I have successfully edited the /framework.apk/xml/storage_list.xml file and compiled the framework.apk and the signed it put it into my port rom but still same results; External_SD not mounting/viewable on the rom but it does appear at the recovery and the aroma file manager.

According to this part from the http://source.android.com/ page you send me

Emulated primary, physical secondary (like Xoom)

This is a typical configuration for a device with multiple external storage devices, where the primary device is backed by internal storage on the device, and where the secondary device is a physical SD card.

The raw physical device must first be mounted under /mnt/media_rw where only the system and FUSE daemon can access it. vold will then manage the fuse_sdcard1 service when media is inserted/removed.

I would like to know if I can have WiFi and Mobile Data on at the same time. I do not get MMS messages til I get off WiFi and also I can't get on my T-Mobile App to check minutes and data. It Keeps saying "Sorry, no data connection is available" I looked in my settings and said Mobile Data is disconnected.... Is this normal? Thanks In Advance.

127 people viewed this and not even a simple yes or no or even post a link to a thread thats relevant to my problem? Posted this on another forum this morning and got 7 people that don't know if you can but are still trying to help me figure it out. Thought the whole reason for these website were to share ideas, develop things for the community and help other out with their issues. It's not like I didn't search all over the Internet before coming as a last resort instead of thinking of it and just posting it here first. What a pathetic place to get help. Have a nice day doing whatever it is ya'll people do.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dwitherell:
Hmm... to be fair sometimes a lack of response is more a lack of confidence in any particular response that might be given. At times repercussions get ...awkward... for saying things that others might find ill informed, and as such a tendency to not say anything unless rather certain on the answer develops.

Anyhoo - I hadn't noticed the fact that the mobile network state listed itself as disconnected when connected to wifi... but ultimately (opens self up to possibly saying something stupid...) I can think of no good reason certain functions of the phone (at least mms or the tmobile app) would depend on mobile data being connected while wifi disconnected. Doing a quick test on my end - both of these functions seem to be behaving as expected while on wifi (tested with wifi calling NOT on, not sure that would throw a wrench in anything but you never know) - does the issue exist across wifi sources? That sort of thing might be something to bring up to a TMo service rep - not sure they will be of any help but given the response you've had here it couldn't be much worse, right? :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tmoney239sucka:
Thank you for your response. I finally called Tmobile and they told me that their apps will only work on mobile data and are not meant to work over wifi even though they say my mobile data will always be on it just goes into a low power state and that MMS has to be set to auto receive which somehow was not checked. Everything seems to work fine. Just one question for you. Did i read that you said you could get on your tmobile account app with WiFi on? Again thank you very much for answering me back. Just was have a bad morning because i get alot of MMS messages for work and it got to me... Also I'm one of those guys that no believe in a stupid answer. If someone's trying to help no matter what they say I'm just greatful for the help :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dwitherell:
I was able to, but perhaps it was just a trick of app cache as opposed to it actually working... strange they require data, you'd think if it was that much of a need they'd force it to engage and wake up the low power state instead of forcing you to turn off wifi. Ah well, learn something new everyday :) Sorry I wasn't more help

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipfreelytech:
fastboot erase cache

for good measure I'd do

fastboot erase userdata as well [note that this will wipe your device!]

your /system is likely trashed due to the borked OTA. So the best we can do with an s-on device and no official RUU for the GPE is write the system files from recovery using a rom.zip or a clean nandroid (couldn't find one). This rom seems to be the least tampered with: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2341395

before booting the rom the first time, reboot to bootloader.

you now need to flash the firmware.zip from the OTA.

fastboot rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

fastboot reboot

should be good to go after that.

Am I reading that right? flash firmware.zip twice?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipfreelytech:
yes. I know it looks retarded in sequence like that. it's because your updating hboot. it starts updating then reboots itself to flush and then you continue the flashing.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipfreelytech:
yeah, apparently hboot on the One won't allow the erase userdata command. Other devices do allow that.

The partition details message is not a good one. I got that one time while flashing the gpe conversion ruu on an ATT one. The fast fix was to run the official ATT RUU and then run the conversion RUU. For your GPE there is no official RUU.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ReneIlia:
Hello,

I know that there are a lot of similar threads about this but none of them had the exact same problems. I'm asking you for patience as my time is really limited and I can't really browse around the forums or I could only find same vague solutions.

Before anything else this is my setup: gsm galaxy nexus, 4.2.2 AOKP milestone 2, franco kernel, LMT for pie controls, nova launcher prime and only a few essential apps like: facebook, swiftkey, dropbox, whatsapp, viber, quickoffice, some medical apps and so on, nothing special about this and no games installed.

Ok, the problem goes like this. Two weeks ago my phone started acting weird. It's slow, the battery drains fast (not even 8 hours of low usage), sometimes it gets really hot without even using it.

Most of the time I only have around 20-30 mb of free ram. I tried to "greenify" apps like dropbox and franco kernel updater but nothing changed.

Any idea? Any advice? Maybe you could recommend some other rom or kernel i could try? I tried PA a few months ago and the performance was just horrible. I really don't have enough time to try and flash random roms so that's another reason I'm asking for your recommendations.

I don't need high performance for gaming or things like this but i need it fast enough to open some .doc/.docx or .pdf documents or the usual apps.

Thank you!

The "call volume" option usually only appears when you are in a call. But I'm not. But it is there. It is preventing me from playing music.

It is definately caused because of the bluetooth.
