Yup, though I haven't tried heads up. Utterly problem-free and the wakelock headaches I had with the GPE ROM are gone.

Nice work.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] s44:
Huh, Smart Remote (IR) isn't sending any signals.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Bait-Fish:
IR isn't working on my VZW GS4 either.

An issue I'm having is the camera FCs on me. At the moment I'm using the latest PA GApps so this is the Google Camera. But, I had the same with the previous 6/27 build camera. Here's the log.

Oddly, other apps that use the camera work, such as Hangouts and MDScan. I've attempted clearing the camera data/cache many times to no avail.

I did try the camera fix posted earlier in this thread. Also, I did originally factory wipe coming to Octo-kat but did not wipe data for the last release. Not sure if that matters as I haven't had a functioning camera on Octo-kat 4.4.4. Hoping the log helps.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Grommish:
IR works if you use the Samsung App, or did. We can look into it.

Camera I've not seen or heard issues with, and have no issues on device. If you're changing camera apps, its not something we can help you with. We can look at the logs and see whats going on hopefully :)
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Bait-Fish:
Thanks Grommish. I half thought that would be the case. I had the problem from the (my) start on 6/27 Octo-kat 4.4.4 and the Oct-GApps from teamoctos site so I tried to make it work first then. I was then trying to get it working using PA.

I'll go back and see what I can figure out. Oddly, I get G+ FC on boot and Google photos crashes too.

Edit: Maybe I assumed IR wasn't working previously because the LED at the top of the phone didn't flash blue like it does on TW. I just tested Watch On and it did work :cool:

Trouble with preferred network mode

Hi all!

I'm having some trouble getting my phone to see Verizon's networks.

If I'm on CDMA+LTE/EvDo, which I'm assuming is the correct one for Verizon, I only get 3G/1X etc. Which is okay, but I'm not getting 4G.

I can force it to get on 4G by putting it in LTE mode, or LTE/WCDMA, but as expected, can't send and receive messages etc etc.

Global works like CDMA+LTE/EvDo where I only get 3G/1X etc

I've searched this thread and the locked other thread and can't find anything like this...can someone give me some advice?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Grommish:
The vast majority of the team is on VZW and none have reported an issue (and Dubbsy would have screamed like we just shaved his cat since he uses his LTE more than his home connection). Get a logcat and email it to teamoctos@gmail.com
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] mehappyz:
A logcat of what? Switching between network types?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Grommish:
I logcat of it failing. If you boot, and it doesn't work, pull the logcat and email it. Syslog from the PlayStore makes it easy.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] s44:
Well, an email to the app developers fixed it. This is what they said:

So it looks like whatever lets the Samsung app work turns the controls into something besides the stock AOSP that this app expects to find.

I'd have hoped this would be in a manual toggle somewhere inside the app instead of on their servers.

[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Grommish:
I've got Smart Remote and it works fine. You don't have the LED flash, but at the top of the screen you get a on-screen boundary indicator
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] s44:
Before their server-side setting fix, I was getting the onscreen indicator but no actual IR control.

We'll see what happens on 7/30.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] ebsk8er06:
Its the Sim card... Mine started doing this so I put my wife's Sim in and it worked fine so just got a new Sim from store and all was fine....
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] s44:
I don't know why Active Notifications causes the time in the status bar to disappear after a notification or so, but it still does. Bizarre.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Bait-Fish:
Follow-up to my previous post, you were right, Grommish. The camera worked for me without GApps (fresh Octo-Kat) as well as Team OctOS GApps.

An issue I have now with the latest 7/30 Octo-Kat is with the OctOS Updater showing "codename: null" and greyed out selections below. This on a VZW GS4 Developer Edition. I have tried multiple wipes and fresh installs. Downloading the ROM a second time, it matched the MD5 to my first.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Bait-Fish:
[Another] noob question :eek:

I know Kit Kat doesn't allow 3rd party apps from accessing the external SD card by default now. But, when I try to enable it using apps, it already appears to be enabled.

Root Explorer fails when I try to copy it move files, as does the included File Manager. I must be missing something...
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Grommish:
The update app does that because we are revamping it and the 7/30 security released was deemed important enough to send it out as is. It's being addressed though. [emoji4]

Which apps? I can see is I can see what's going on.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Bait-Fish:
SD KitKat Fixer by JRummy was the first one I tried, then SDFix. Both appeared to show it was already "fixed" on each app's first run. Success eluded me however.

It has been frustrating on KK (recent upgrade to KK for me) figuring out how to manage the files I create on the internal SD to get them out to external. The GS4's smallish internal memory is further crippled with this restriction. I'm sure most of you out there have worked past this already.
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Bait-Fish:
I was PM'd by a user who can't post here yet (<10 posts). He experienced the same SD card transfer issue as me and said changing kernels fixed it. He stated too that it happened on this latest release as well. Chronic kernel fixed it for him. I tried Chronic as well and it works for me too.

Thanks [MENTION=3048837]TheGord[/MENTION] for the heads up!
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] s0m3f00l:
DTMF tones not sending in call. They are fine if I put them into a contact beforehand but will not send otherwise.... anyone know what I am missing here???
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Bait-Fish:
VPN

I haven't had any trouble with DTMF for menu selection, sorry.

I know this post is worthless without a log. Hoping others have VPN experience on Octo-Kat.

I haven't been able to connect to OpenVPN servers on Octo-Kat (most recent) using OpenVPN for Android or VPN Unlimited.

Both apps connect to different VPN servers on my Google Nexus 10 tablet (4.4.4). But trying on this VZW Samsung GS4 Developer Edition doesn't complete the connection. The server log shows this repteatedly on the home OpenVPN server.

Connecting to VPN Unlimited uses their own app with no user configurable settings, other than choosing what location server to connect to. The GS4 times out, nearly connected while waiting "Adding routes." Comparing logcats, they appear identical but the Nexus 10 completes the connection and works.

A shot it the dark, checking Tun.ko status using the Tun.ko Installer and swapping kernels hasn't yielded success either.

Hoping, again, that someone has experience with this. Any suggestions for data I can gather?
[Samsung Galaxy S 4 Unified Development] Grommish:
DTMF isn't available on AOSP Dialer, never has.

As for VPN dhd.ko is already there (built into the Android source since.. JB?). I'll look at it when I get a chance though.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jball:
If you didn't make a backup and you can manually boot into TWRP than pull out your extSdCard and put it in another phone or a computer and download a rom/stock zip file.put it back in your phone and boot into TWRP and flash it.Odin if this option don't work assuming you had USB DEBUGGING enabled.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RockRatt:
Did you use your phone to download it? If sobdid you use a root explorer to mive it anywhere?

If you didn't move it then in twrp you can go to the top option in twrp under INSTALL and then choose sdcard and scroll down to the DOWNLOAD FOLDER and it should be there. Next option would be the SAME except choose your external sdcard and go to its DOWNLOAD FOLDER and see if it is in there.

Next option is take out your EXTERNAL SDCARD (removable microsd card) and put it into a sdvard adapter if needed. Go to a PC and download the ROM you want. Copy it to your removable sdcard somewhere you can find it easily. Next take that micro sdcard and out it into your phone. Open up recovery with the power off and hold down the Volume Up+Home Button+ Power button until you see the small blue writing on the upper left of your screen and then let go. Once in twrp you can navigate to the external sdcard and find the ROM and flash it.

These methods would be far easier that flashing in Odin stock firmware, rooting it again, then flashing the rom.

Which is faster to transfer files to an SD Card?

1)

Via cable mounting the SD card as a drive.

Via resco and Wifi

Or a card reader.

2)

Is there a way to disable recent progs on the menu? Just bugs me :)

3)

Thanks :)

They do a util that turns your device into a Mass Storage SDCard reader.. much faster than activesync AND you dont have to remove your SD.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] alexdoo122:
Hello, I am new to this so forgive any misused jargon. I got an AT&T Galaxy S4 right around Thanksgiving and like a fool I couldn't wait to root it and install ROMs - so I did.

This is the current version of my phone after rooting it. I am on stock-rooted right now.

Model #:SGH-I337

Android Version: 4.2.2 (It was 4.3 straight out of the box, BUT it was NOT the OTA update).

Baseband Version: I337UCUAMF3

Kernel Version: 3.4.0-812098 se.infra@SEP-103 #1

I used this method to root it: (Since I can't post links yet, search"root galaxy s4 at&t mj7" and it should be the first video, uploaded by Tomsgt123)

Shortly after, I installed ROM Manager for CWM and I have CWM 6.0.4.4 but I never used it.

Then I installed Titanium Backup even though I also never used it.

I discovered SafeStrap and installed version 3.65 (TWRP v2.6.3.1) and I was able to successfully create a ROM slot for Hyperdrive, which

installed smoothly for me. However, when I wanted to try out other ROMs (Cyanogenmod, PAC-ROM, OmniROM) they wouldn't work.

After flashing them, my phone would turn off (or the screen stays black) and I would have to hold the power button to reboot it so I can revert to the stock ROM in Safestrap.

I really want to try another custom ROM, because I'm jealous of all the cool themes people have. Am I doing something wrong? Or did I ruin something during the rooting process? Any feedback is appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RockRatt:
First off MF3 is not 4.3 right out of the box. MF3 is exactly as you wrote it, 4.2.2 android firmware. As you have found ONLY safestrap will work on MF3. To flash Roms you can ONLY FLASH 4.2 based Roms. Check out this link to see WHICH ROMS you CAN flash http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2428254 with safestrap.

You won't be able to flash CM or other asop Roms from my understanding. You can flash the Google Edition ROM 4.2.2. Again check out that link on the first post it shows Roms that can be flashed.

Thanks for the tip! I'm just relieved that I wasn't doing anything overly-horrific to my phone!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angus242:
I have 2 Google accounts on my phone; personal and work.

In my Google account settings, I have the chosen services to sync checked.

In data usage/menu/ auto-sync data is checked.

A few hours after I make sure all services to be synced are checked, they slowly start turning off by themselves one by one. All on at night, 75% turned off in the morning.

This have been happening since recently on 4.4.0. I did a complete factory wipe back to 4.4.0 and allowed stock upgrades to happen; both 4.4.1.and now 4.4.2.

I'm unlocked, rooted, using franco kernel r20 and moto-x dalvik patch on stock odex 4.4.2 ROM.

Starting today, Gmail will not sync regardless of sync settings. If I check email on phone, it's not marked as read on PC hours later. Also, 2 messages composed on phone today, not sent (stuck in sending mode).

I cleared cache of Gmail. No change.

This shouldn't be a leftover issue unless it's tied to some app. I am running on a brand new, untouched version of stock ROM (before I rooted and installed TWRP).

I've searched and searched. Only topic I can find is either Exchange sync issues or folks that had auto-sync data turned off.

Ideas?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aerowinder:
The first thing that you do when you encounter a situation like this, is to remove variables. Those variables are franco kernel and the dalvik patch. Get rid of them and test again.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angus242:
Yeah, I recently installed both in 4.4.0 right before the 4.4.1 update came out. At least that's when I noticed this issue happening.

I'll (un)do both.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angus242:
Removed Moto X Dalvik patch by flashing stock system.img.

Sync still turning off automatically.

Just removed franco kernel (back to stock 4.4.2). Will have to wait and see.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angus242:
Stock kernel and issue remains.

This is totally weird.

I have a few mods:

Center clock/battery % icon

36 dpi nav bar

4in1 reboot

All 3 of these mods are new versions. I still had the problem when on 4.4.0 with old versions of those 3 mods.

That's it. What in the hell can be making Google account services sync turn off? Does ANYONE have a clue on what might be happening?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angus242:
This is interesting. Somehow, I have 2 N5s listed in my Google account. I only have 1. I never returned it or RMA or anything. Not sure why they're there.

Could this be an issue where my Google account is attempting to sync from a phantom device?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angus242:
I mean, it does seem that the sync disappearing is more than just something on the phone, right? It's a stock phone with 3 mods (that shouldn't be related to syncing at all).

This problem has happened on 3 versions of Android.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angus242:
Looks like a delete of all Google accounts and reinstall worked. Must have been a booger left over from something else.

Anybody? Please? Ideas?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LNJ:
It's probably Qualcom Battery Guru. It's trying to save your battery by turning off sync to certain services. Change the setting to let it use data whenever it wants.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angus242:

[Moto X Q&A] iJusDefy:
So I am eagerly awaiting my Cyber Monday (Wednesday) Moto X and while doing so, I've been browsing through accessories I might want to enhance my Moto Xperience, and I really want to take advantage of the Trusted Bluetooth Device along with Touchless Controls.

I've been searching around, but I haven't been able to find a definitive answer, just off-to-the-side mentions of its use.. I have a Nike Fuelband SE that has BTLE. Nike doesn't support AndroidOS, so there's no dedicated app for it. I am, however, able to discover it with my current phone (Droid 4).

So basically, does anyone know if I will be able to use my Fuelband as a Trusted Bluetooth Device, or how I might go about doing that? I guess I could find some BL keychain if there was no way to use it.

Thanks ahead of time for your replies and help.
[Moto X Q&A] mawells787:
If your droid 4 can see it I can't see why the moto x won't. Once you connect to a Bluetooth device it will ask you if you want to make it a trusted device. If it doesn't the setting is under security. I can't see why it wouldn't work. Good luck.
[Moto X Q&A] iJusDefy:
Thanks. I was concerned because it didn't actually support Android, but was hoping it could simply act as a dummy BTLE device. Got an e-mail from Fedex telling me it's arriving today so I'll test it out and come back here with what I've got :)
[Moto X Q&A] iJusDefy:
If anyone happens to be interested, the Fuelband SE isn't continuously syncing via Bluetooth to the Moto X. It pairs, and the Moto X asks if I want to make it a trusted device, but the notification tray icon never turns blue. It doesn't seem to be able to continuously sync. Too bad I was really looking forward to this.

If anyone knows a way around this, please let me know. Thanks!
[Moto X Q&A] 640k:
have you done any other testing? kit kat got rid of the blue theme. the icons are either orange (no connection), white (connected) or dark (disabled).
[Moto X Q&A] iJusDefy:
I just tried it with a bluetooth headset and the icon turns and stays white. With the Fuelband connected, it just stays sort of grayed out. :(
[Moto X Q&A] iJusDefy:
Working!

This has been pushed back due to what I assume is a lack of interest for, but in case someone else decides to figure this out or something similar to it, I have managed to get the Fuelband SE to "sync" with the Moto X and act as a Bluetooth Trusted Device.

There's an app on the Play store called "Bluetooth Auto Connect" that you can set to sync with the Fuelband (and what I assume would be any device) and it will do so automatically. The icon stays greyed out, but turning the Fuelband's BT on and off in turn pops up that Trusted Device notification on the Moto X.

I hope this helps someone else with any type of random trusted device need.

Cheers
[Moto X Q&A] 640k:
so what can you do with it?
[Moto X Q&A] iJusDefy:
You can use it as your trusted device to keep your phone unlocked while you're in proximity to it and connected via Bluetooth. Saves me those few seconds of having to enter in my password, and maintains some security.
[Moto X Q&A] 640k:
you're not using it for its fitness aspects?
[Moto X Q&A] iJusDefy:
Oh, I thought you were referring to what I can do with the pairing to the Moto X.

I've been using the fitness aspect of the Fuelband since March 2012. The newest one that I have now I can use to track my general activity throughout the entire day, tag specific workout sessions in order to keep track of my workout intensity over time, track hours of sleep, and set goals for myself (via # of Fuel points) every day to give me an activity level to reach for. Since there's no Android app or any sort of Android support on Nike's end, I do all my data syncing through my PC.

And now I can use it to keep my phone unlocked when it's on me :)
[Moto X Q&A] bso44:
I've got a Pebble syncing fine and enabled as a trusted device but my bluetooth icon is always greyed out. I think it only turns white when there's an audio connection like with a headset or stereo.
[Moto X Q&A] iJusDefy:
Makes sense why mine is grayed out too. Pebble supports Android though, and since there's no support/app for the Fuelband on Android, I had to use the auto bluetooth connect app to force a pairing to make it a trusted device. Was close to buying a Pebble though. Saw it was on sale for $90.
[Moto X Q&A] bso44:
Yup. I got mine yesterday from Best Buy for $90. Wasn't planning on buying one but, at that price, I thought what the hell. So far I'm really digging it.

Its a shame it wasnt hacked already :( it would be nice to have wristband with notification...I am not into fitness or watch stuffs :angel:
[Moto X Q&A] Ro Ablate:
Thanks for the info on the app!

By using this app to ensure a connection, how long does your Fuelband SE battery last? I suspect it has shorten considerable from when you were not using BT at all.

Also, since there are at least 2 battery sizes depending on the band size (circumference), which size is yours?
