[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orobin:
Hello,

I own a galaxy s4 i 9505 (internationnal version)

I bought it with Samsung rom, modem version XXUBMGA.

now, I recently upgraded my modem, because I try some ROM like GE roms.

this is working fine.

I noticed, today, using a software to have infos about my device, and 3G signal (Signal network info) that my device has this bootloader :

I9505XXUBMGA.

it is too old (I bought it in May 2013, so the modem, boot loader etc... have more than 6 month now...

how can I update it ? where to find boot loader ? I find easily modem, but no boot loader.

thanks for any info

re: bootloader

Why in the world would you want to "update" your bootloader?

I think it would be worth your while to read up on bootloaders

before you end up with a shiny brick with a 5 inch black screen.

Here is a good link to find out what a bootloader is and does:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Bootloader

Bootloaders have nothing to do with the speed or the stability of the phone.

Good luck!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnaMajhol:
lol this is the first time I see someone wants a newer bootloader.. As the post above me, a newer bootloader won't make your phone faster ..Anyway you already have the latest knox one :P
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orobin:
hi,

no I don't look for speed.

I was thinking that it could have some impact when trying some ROM, like :

kitkat GE Rom which are not stable, even if the rom comes i9505GE official Google edition rom which should be stable...

I was thinking that the difference between a i9505 and a i9505GE could be the bootloader, as the hardware is exactly the same...

thanks

You are on a pre KNOX boot loader so stick with it. No need to update. Updating to a KNOX boot loader will give you a knox flag once it a tripped there's no going back. With a KNOX boot loader you can not downgrade as well. I'm on the old boot loader and custom 4.3 roms work well.

Mobile ODIN is the reason

Hello,

I have a MJ5 bootloader and to use the app Mobile ODIN I am advised to use the MJ7 version or I might soft-brick my phone...

I already have the KNOX flag at 1, so I suppose I should not worry about that... And I can't find anywhere (I did search the forum and google) how to do this.

Before anyone asks.. I have and work with OS X and I am aware of Heimdall (ODIN replacement for macs). But I tried using it and it did not recognize my phone to download my .PIT file. Also, its quite confusing about heimdall packages instead of normal files..

So, Im going for Mobile ODIN which seems to be the easiest way to ODIN.

Can anyone help? Should I worry about anything else than KNOX flag that I am not aware of when changing the bootloader?

Thanks in advance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shmulie:
I have a crack in my screen which seems to make the phone's sensor think it's constantly pressed against my ear, thus not allowing me to use the keypad during calls, switch apps during calls, and on incoming calls, not even hang up.

I was wondering if anyone knew of any way to disable the automatic screen shutoff so I can get around this. I am using CyanogenMod 10.2 on a rooted Sprint galaxy s4, but have had the same problem with the derrick Samsung os.

Thank you, and if I'm posting this in the wrong place, apologies and please let me know where it belongs!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] w8setter:
The screen off during calls is controlled by 1 of the top sensors, not by screen touch...Maybe there is damage to or on the surface area above the sensor...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] sainthooligan:
I know you're on CM but here's how it's done in stock, you can toggle the "Turn off screen during calls" when you bring up the dial pad and hit menu then call settings.

Unselecting that item keeps the screen on as it won't use the proximity settings (like when you put it to your ear) to turn off the screen...which is essentially what you've already described that you think is occurring with the crack in your screen...

hope that helps.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shmulie:
Never noticed that, thanks! I wasn't able to find something similar in my OS. I love CM, but I might have to switch back to stock for this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] sainthooligan:
Btw I also noticed it's accessible through settings > my device > call in stock.

Anyhow, instead of moving from CM, have you tried something like this app to turn off the sensor in calls https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.itsme4ucz.screenoff

or tried to use the Tasker app to toggle it off? might be worth a shot.

EDIT:

There was a mod for this, so you're likely to find something around that will coincide with what your running on yours - see this: http://www.modaco.com/topic/362514-mod-disable-proximity-sensor-cm101-based-roms-only/

also have you seen this thread on issues with this in CM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2409698 ?

AND the other option is to try blowing air in might help, just in case it isn't related to your screen crack....see also: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...edition/311795-s4-proximity-sensor-issue.html

Okay.

I've got this bluetooth headphone that works okay with my XDA2s, but after using it (and turning off the bluetooth on the XDA) I do not hear the

person calling me (no sound) The person calling me can hear me fine!

No problem. I do not really like using the bluetooth headphone, so I could live with it..

Now I got this bluetooth GPS, and I have the same problem as I am having with the bluetooth headphone.. No sound anymore after using it..

All I can do to get the sound to work is a soft reset!

Is there a fix for this arround (exept WM5)?

XDA2s is using:

ROM version 1.42.00 WWE

ROM Date: 09/05/05

Radio version: 1.13.00

Protocol version: 1337.42

ExtROM: 1.40.553 WWE

The Bluetooth is version 1.0.0 Build 3900 (same with all module version)

The ROM I used for the 'flash' is the one from T Mobile

There are NO other 'shortcuts' in the bluetooth manager exept the 'BT GPS: SPP' one.

Any info about appreciated!

Thank you

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] TheBigApple:
Hi,

I'm using a Xperia J with Cyanogenmod 10.1(month ago installed) and the NeutronMP, because I have some 24 Bit/96kHz flacs, which only NeutronMP undestands them. The little better Quality is a reason too. But every time, when I'm using this, i get some heavy lags and most of the time listening to music isn't very nice.

Firstly, what's the reason for that? Too low CPU/RAM, low performance on sd card? Every time I've looked in task manager, it seems to be (relative) normal. In addition, i haven't got any performance hungry apps running in background.

Secondly, how can I reduce this? What would be most effective?

Thanks in advance,

Lg
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Revontheus:
CM 10.1 for J was never stable stick to CM 10 and don't use that crappy audio engine
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] TheBigApple:
Do you mean Neutron with "crappy audio engine"? I Haven't found a alternate player, so i can't choose.

I will install CM 10 later. Other things i could do?

thanks anyway.

EDIT: furthermore, i think "that crappy audio engine" is the reason, it can play all of my files.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Duck86:
I stuck with stock when I got my J, I did however flash a new kernel to allow me to overclock to 1.3ghz. Do a search for vengence kernel and flash that. Don't flash the newest one though, stick with v1.40 (later versions do not have oc facility)
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Revontheus:
You see, most people think OC actually speeds up their phone, well it doesn't. Only wastes battery, get CM 10 and use Riches Kernel or use

my ROM

if you want a stable and fast jellybean.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Duck86:
Of course overclocking speeds up the phone. You are increasing your CPU speed to the maximum that the hardware will allow. Yes there will be slightly less battery life, but that's a given. Its swings and roundabouts. Personally I find that there isn't a noticeable difference in mine (I still get 2 days on regular usage), but with the extra 300MHz I get from overclocking I no longer have the heavy lagging I had on the stock kernel. If there are no benefits from oc, how do you explain all the tests that prove you wrong?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] TheBigApple:
Thanks for your ideas, i will test both versions. But i don't know really, what exact is too less.

EDIT: btw, I've installed CM 10, and it isn't really better. But anyway, i didn't thought it would change the world.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Suxter:
which rom you installed CM 10.1 ?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] TheBigApple:
Now I have installed this one: [projectfreexperia/download/cyanogen-mod-10] (FXP248). I thought, i had installed this one: [projectfreexperia/download/cyanogen-mod-10-1], but i can't find the package; so it could also have been this: [projectfreexperia/download/cyanogen-mod-10-2] (FXP248).

But it really doesn't matter, what of these versions I had installed, because they have all the same (bad) performance for my NeutronMP. Right?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Duck86:
If you wanted to stick with cm10, I think that Rom supports the vengeance kernel so you could get the best of both worlds
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Suxter:
so you tell us, you installed unsupported CM 10.1 / 10.2 & your phone is laggy & not working it;s functions ? :laugh: :laugh:

i loled , because you installed unsupported CM versions to your phone & says its very laggy lol

be careful next time, because maybe it'll end with soft brick or hard brick like this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2550937 ( phone main board change after he installed that rom )
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Revontheus:
There are many more ways to improve a phone's performance

Install A Custom Rom,

Mods like Supercharger or Crossbreeder which benfit battery life

OCing is not bad but it is also not beneficiary for the device
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] TheBigApple:
My phone only is lagging, when I'm using NeutronMP, never with other apps. (I don't use other performance hungry apps like games, but anyway.)

I asked this, because I've had the same problems when I've used NeutronMP with the stock android.

@ all: thanks for your replies.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeoFalto:
Hi, so I decided I wanted to try CM11 for Nexus 4, but I had to unlock bootloader and root before I could flash the ROM. Only problem is, after successfully unlocking, I can't move the zips from my pc to the sdcard cus the pc wont recognize a nexus 4 is plugged in. So, I read around about adb push command and tried that, which seemed to have worked according to the CMD window as it says number of kb/s (bytes in 0.200s) after I execute the command. The thing is that when I then go to install zip from sdcard in CWM, it tells me e:cant mount sdcard.

I've looked everywhere for a solution but none of the threads seem to work for me.

I have the latest version of cwm so thats not a problem.

Any ideas?

Does anyone know why this is? Ideally, i'd like to scrap the CWmod and get back to how it was before (like factory etc)

I also can't seem to get my desktop to recognise my phone, I think it's a driver issue, does anyone have drivers for Windows 8?

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doppiobleah:
Hello guys,

I am currently using a Kindle Fire 7" 1st gen (rooted about 1 year ago and flashed cyano7), last week i decided to upgrade and I tried some roms but everyone of these present some little problems i didn't solve (rotation problem, error with keyboard process, usb mount storage problem..) with use of forum.

Finally I found ROM hellfire 10.2 jelly 2.4 (built Tue, Aug 27 and kernel 3.0.72+). Everything ok, no problems...but the kindle now is going very very slow: a long time to open app, and it is not so reactive as before. I don't play with it, I use kindle for gmail, web nav, twit, read books using amazon app and comics using ACV.. I think these apps are not so expensive in terms of hardware resources. Moreover, in order to increase the battery life I travel with wifi off and turn it on just to check notifications.

Is it normal? Does it depend on the hardware that it is not very performant using a rom so recently? Or can I set or check some parameters to increase performance?

Alternative could be flash an older rom or a lighter (but new) rom to increase reactivity and speed?

Thank you so much for any suggest!
