Trying to figure out whether this is a "my phone" problem or whether it's a known issue... a large percentage of the time I take a picture with the flash enabled, my phone crashes and reboots. This does not occur when it is plugged into A/C. I've had the issue on the 11 nightlies, but I've had it going back to 10.3 as well. Any ideas? I'm guessing since I don't see it in the known issues area that it's just my handset.

OTG Audio

Does anyone know if it is possible at all to get USB audio with kitkat on the samsung galaxy s blaze?

Wasn't sure to create a new thread for this or not, but I'm using this ROM, and wondering if anyone else has been able to get this working.

I have a usb otg cable, and a usb otg device (g930 headset), and I'd just like to be able to enable it as an audio source.

I saw https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=24614 and http://www.avsforum.com/t/1393599/enable-usb-audio-on-any-android-4-0-smartphone-tablet, but wasn't sure if those things about android 4.0 would apply to KitKat.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] iamlazy:
You probably have a .mp4 file that's causing it, it was the same way for me. Either use a different ROM or give up on playing most .mp4 files. Sometimes it works with some files, other times it doesn't. No .mp4 files, no reboots. Your choice.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
I was under the assumption that the mp4 issue was fixed..?? No??

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] suhy.a:
instead of that, i formatted my ext sdcard and put it back.. it worked.. :D

thanx a ton though.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Thats what i suggested.. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] suhy.a:
.mp4 is no longer an issue i think.. i can play .mp4 videos without any problem.. :D

hello again..

another issue i encountered is that the data connection tends to get disconnected if not used for a while.. even though there's no loss of mobile network..

the "data connection logo" will be displayed always, but I'll not recieve any msg (on whatsapp, email, fb etc..) untill and unless i switch off and again switch on on my data connection..

please look into it. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
What radio are you using? You can try a different one and see if it helps..

happens to be at random -- every 5 pics or so
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] im1knight:
not sure if im doing something wrong here, but i just flashed the ROM, and for some reason, the video camera does not record at all. I know theres a bug with the preview being fuzzy, and the delay. But when I hit record, it delays for a moment, and then does nothing....

Also not sure if this was mentioned before, but I can't seem to find the setting to make the camera store pictures to the external SD card? It defaults to the internal, which is pretty small..

and i'm not sure how you guys got around the playing .mp4 video problem..mine is still crashing -__-

and for some reason, mine is randomly rebooting from time to time...I could be in the settings, or just flipping through different pages of the desktop, and it would just freeze and reboot for no apparent reason. I have wiped and everything according to instruction...the main reason why I left the stock 4.0.4 is due to the phone lagging and freezing, forcing me to reboot. Now that i got 4.4.2, the lagging is gone, but the freezing is still there, i guess the only good part to this is that the phone now reboots quicker, and reboots automatically instead of me having to hold the power button..
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Make sure your on the proper recovery,and wiped, and formatted the internal and external SD from recovery, then flash the ROM and gapps..the formatting is needed when coming up to 4.4..

_sent from a gummed up i577 using tapatalk cause the xda app won't sync_
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] im1knight:
I have formatted the internal and external SD and reflashed the ROM after wiping everything, and flashed the standard gapps. The random crashes and reboots are still there, but are a lot better now... When they happen they seem to happen after I turn my screen off...the phone would vibrate on its own, and then reboot, and everything goes back to normal...annoying, but definitely better than when I was on stock ROM it would freeze up by just me opening an app. I just don't know what is causing it now that my internal and external SD are completely empty other than the stuff the system puts there

And I still can't record a video, and playing .mp4 files will cause reboot immediately, how was the .mp4 resolved for other people?

Also, I think on stock ROM i can connect the USB, and connect the phone to my PC using USB mass storage, where the phone's internal and external SD would show up as removable drives, but it seems i'm only able to connect it as a media device on CM11? (MTP and PTP). The transfers this way takes a very long time...I have enabled USB debugging as I have back on stock rom thinking that might be the cause, but that didn't really do anything..

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
That's odd...I'll look for the commit that merged it..but truly odd..
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] BlazinDroid5280:
Running beautifully, thanks for the rom! I'm wondering if there is a nav ring/bar in this build.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
I'm not running right now as I am testing another ROM..but if it is..it'll be in settings/ interface..if not you can unlock it with pimpmyrom from the play store..but I do believe it is..
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] BlazinDroid5280:
Not there but pimp my rom worked. Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Cool..I know I had it..just couldn't remember how..lol
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Hey dirty..with xposed framework and gravity box module you can get pie controls as well..
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] crossking:
Was wondering, is it better to use the official CM11 or the version that had the camcorder fix?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] leggz80:
SWEET!

INK!!!!! Youre the man! Awesome job and thanks for all your hard work brother!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
The camcorder fix will be merged soon I imagine..
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Thanks leggz.. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] blazetim:
I tried these gapps and it still wont work. I found that if i go to app settings/youtube and click unistall all updates and revent to stock it will work again. But the playstore redownloads the newest update and it will no longer work again. Anyone else having the youtube issue? Youtube must not be compatible with this 4.41 rom on my end
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Tell it to not install updates...Remove updates..Open play store and disable auto updates..I NEVER let em do it anyways..I read every update before they run as most of the time something breaks..Youtube works fine for me..(most of the time when I hear that, its an adblocking program interfering), but you have already said you dont have one,so advice is above..
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] tommyboy8125:
With the gaps at the top of the unofficial cm 11 thread YouTube works for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Its the same package in the top of this thread as well..
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Jaeryck:
Thanks! but no 4G?

Loving the ROM, but I can't get 4G data. If I go to mobile networks and look at the options, 4G isn't there. I have the UVMC6 radio installed as well. Thoughts anyone?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
My best guess...

4g should run anyways (possibly shown as h+)..If not, you can DL pimpmyrom from the play store..There is an option for hidden menu (only because i cant remeber dialer code, and to be honest dont believe most dialers work in custom roms)....Maybe someone else is having the problem..(I dont have the device and cannot recreate)..
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] tommyboy8125:
Try the UVLH5 radio. It's what works best for myself.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] centenj:
Reboot

Mine was working at first but I rebooted the phone and everything is working perfectly. Thanks again Ink. I also am running the UVLH5 radio, it works the best like tommyboy said.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Your welcome..Glad to be of assistance..:good:
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Jaeryck:
You are right. The setting doesn't matter. I just had crappy signal. Strange that the option still doesn't show though. Could be confusing to

n00bs like me...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Have you black hole wiped before flashing rom and gapps? You may have "gremlins".. Little residuals giving issues..And yes, android changed usb/pc interface..Its a pain, but there are apps in playstore to force usb mode toggle..and you ARE on the right recovery..?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] njstein:
Out of curiosity, have you tried a different ROM? Gummy perhaps to see if it's ROM related or phone related. Have you tried a different gapps package? Instead of Banks Standard, maybe try Core, or PA gapps? Did you jump right to cm11? Did you try 10.2? Dirty Unicorns or PAC (both 4.3) to see if you have these issues? Just spit-balling here, frustrating having issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] im1knight:
I'm pretty sure I wiped everything I can find on that recovery page..system,data,cache,dalvic, and formatted SD, then flashed...

for the USB mode toggle, do you have a specific one to recommend? Found 2, one of them apparently only works on selected devices, and the other one don't work for internal storage...

I used the 6.0.3.8(touch) to flash it initially, and since that gave me some issues initially, I then tried this CWM advanced edition http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2461823 ,using version 6.07.9, which shows supports 4.4, flashed the recovery, wiped everything I can find, and flashed the ROM and the 4.4.2 standard gapps without any errors present

I don't think the CWM advanced edition recovery is causing the problems...? Of course if I'm wrong please correct me.

When I say 6.0.3.8 was giving me issues it was probably due to the fact I did not format the SD, and not the recovery itself. But since I didn't know I must reformat the SD cards, I just assumed something went wrong with the process, and searched for a guide and found this one.

http://true-android.blogspot.com/2014/01/update-galaxy-s-blaze-4g-sgh-t769-t.html

Reflashed according to its procedure and I didn't experience any errors... since it used the CWM advanced edition recovery in its tutorial i decided to give it a try. But I realized the link for the ROM download on its page is outdated, so I downloaded the actual ROM and the gapps package from this post.

Thanks

No, haven't tried a different ROM, went straight from stock 4.0.4 to this. I have tried the lightweight core gapps package first, and that did not go well. The play store is stuck in a loop whenever i run it, and causing crashes everywhere.

Haven't tried 10.2 or 4.3 ROMS, probably will have to test them and see if this reboot issue is still there, i'm not experiencing it nearly as much as I was, I removed a few apps, I will have to let it go for a day or so to see if it was caused by an app i removed..

The thing bugging me the most right now is the instant crash when playing .mp4 files, and my inability to record video. The phone will actually "record"(shows the little time thing on the side), but apparently is not saving anything that is recorded...I do have the Xposed framework and the pic2SD thing installed, not sure if that is related.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
OK..there is a tool called black hole super wipe or something in the blaze bible that seems to help with residual issues..maybe wipe with that before you flash ROM and see if that may help..?? ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] grandspecter:
Is it possible to swap the storage mounts on cm11. I currently use cm10, the last nightly. Its pretty easy to swap the mounts on cm10 just have to change 2 numbers in the fstab file. Any way to do it here.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Do a backup..try it and see..:p whats the worst that can happen? A restore? ;) a lot of users ask, and no one is trying anything..I have a lot on my plate an swap isn't very high on my list..sorry man..
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] minkmendor:
partitions

so im sure this has been asked before, but is there a way to make it so there is only 1 internal partition? It's weird having the phones memory split into two, makes its harder to install large apps!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] JetSquad:
Yea I was wondering the same thing
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Why dont you use foldermount or force2sd and create the symlinks from your internal to your external and then you are only restricted by the size of your EXT SD?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] minkmendor:
it doesn't help for the large apps from store over a gig. they can download but not install because there isn't enough space free. thanks for the apps tho they did move some other big stuff over
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
My next project is a vold swap (if I can get it) so this won't be an issue anymore...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] JamTastic:
question

how exactly does one get the notifications like the first screenshot ?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] njstein:
General practice my man, don't quote the op, too long . But that is an app called Dashclock with multiple extensions. A fantastic Widget that I use on all ROM's (above 4.1.2).
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Especially when it doesn't even show the screenshot...:rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] JamTastic:
didn't intend to quote the whole post, nor did I realize it did not include the screenshot. :(

WiFi Not Working After Updating to CM11

I had CM9 and CM10 for a long time, but waited to install CM11 till this past weekend (I installed cm-11-20140126-NIGHTLY-t769). When I was done, everything worked fine for me except for the WiFi - suddenly I can't even turn it on. In fact, under settings where it's listed as OFF, it actually seems kinda lighter grey than the others - like it's greyed out. When I try to turn it on, it says it's trying to, but nothing happens

I've tried installing a couple other versions of CM11 on top of it with no luck. I tried rolling back to 10, same thing.

The only thing I haven't done is wiped everything out, factory restore, and start from scratch - just because it's a pain to have to reinstall all the apps and move data back.

Any thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] minkmendor:
yep do the full wipe. i had same issue :D works perfect now
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] njstein:
Ya, you definitely need to do a full wipe: cache, dalvik, data, system, I would even format sdcard0. Also make sure you are on the correct recovery. Jumping from JB to KK requires all of this. Oh, and something else, don't use TitaniumBackup, either. Start completely fresh. All good news, I know...
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Its all good man. .just for future reference… thats all
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
9

Due to drastic changes in how the roms are built, a full wipe is MANDATORY when coming up from prior version OR rolling back. .That will fix 95% of any issues. .and as [MENTION=5087305]njstein[/MENTION] said, restoring apps from a prior version is not recommended as well (for the same reason)… Now using tibu or similar app to restore data is acceptable if switching between roms of same version but even then that may cause issues. .luckily we dont rollback or even up versions very often :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] DWSpiro:
Well, bit the bullet - kinda. I did a Nandroid backup first, then did a full wipe of system, cache, factory restore, etc. Then did a fresh install of the cm-11-20140126-NIGHTLY-t769 (same version as in the backup). After verifying everything was working, restored the backup through CMW, and now everything is there AND WiFi is working. Not sure if I was just lucky, but glad it worked out!

BTW, didn't mind trying this way because it is my backup phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] janejunx:
double-checking

So as far as I understand it, this just mutes my notification sounds (the only time I have had missing sounds thus far)? Or will this happen intermittently?

I'm asking just because I want to know if I should be setting back-up alarms for work. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] njstein:
No, this doesn't affect anything but in- call speakerphone. If you answer a call and hit speaker, you can hear them, they can't hear you. But no one has mentioned anything about an alarm so there's always a first. I would set an alarm for five minutes from now and test just to be sure!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] janejunx:
Oooh got it!

Well then time to figure out why I'm not getting notifications ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
I have been noticing notifications are hit and miss. .not quite sure what the deal is. .although for things like xda (which gives me issues), i use tapatalk and i get every one.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] im1knight:
I've been getting no notifications from certain apps like facebook, while it works fine with others...so it's pretty random. But I solved my issue by deleting the cache and data for facebook, uninstalled the app, and installed again from playstore,then updated to the 0129 nightly..after that it started working..not sure if its updating the nightly build that helped or the reinstallation...

As far as alarm goes, I realized before I updated to 0129 nightly, so i'm not sure if this still exists, but sometimes my phone freezes when the screen is turning on, and will reboot on its own. Unfortunately sounding the alarm will wake the screen, and in the morning the phone crashed on me. So my alarm only made half of a chime before phone rebooted,(which half-woke me, thought i was dreaming until I heard the phone reboot vibration) but luckily the alarm does go off again after the phone reboots completely, even if it already passed the time you set the alarm to. So in case you are a heavy sleeper, at least you got that going for you...but now I just use my tablet as an alarm backup just in case it fails..better safe than sorry.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Are you using the app wake lock by darken in the playstore? Been recommending it for awhile now and it really does help with any screen wake issues. .give it a run. .
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] janejunx:
Mine are 100% not working, across the board. Ringtones (and alarms) are fine, notifications are not. Vibrate works.

In GoSMS on my old phone running CM11 (Relay 4g, so somewhat similar phone) and on the Blaze running 4.3.1, when I selected a notification sound from the list, it would play once to tell you what it is, and it would then play a second time when you've hit OK. On my Blaze, it just plays when I've hit OK. which makes it seem like it's a problem at an OS level (not playing in the media select screen, but apps are able to play them otherwise?).

Confirmed apps not giving me notification sounds: okcupid, facebook, gosms, messaging, gmail, e-mail (none of them are, but I know those have given me notifications in the last day). I wiped completely (and I mean completely - internal and external SD cards) and started from scratch with the 01/29 Nightly. Before I'd done so, I was on the last 4.3 nightly I could find, and everything was working then.

Hit me up if there's anything else I can provide for bug hunting.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Looking over things at cm there seems to be an issue with multiple devices not getting notifications… gotta love source... .cant fix something without breaking something else. ..give me the weekend. If it hasnt been dialed in already. .ill look into it myself. .
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
And just to put it out there. .if anyone has issues with a nightly, please try a clean flash (after backing up ofcourse) and see if the issue persists. .I can get a better idea of issues without the residuals. .thanks guys. .
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
I was gonna ask as well what you mean by playing twice when choosing the sound. .it should only play once when you select it that way you can scroll through em and hear it but not a second time after choosing it. .that part i dont follow. .correct me if im wrong. .
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] janejunx:
For some reason, Go SMS plays notifications like described (when selected from the system list of notification sounds), but then also plays it once you've hit OK and are back into the preferences.

Presumably it's a GoSMS bug or weird intended behaviour, but I thought it might be useful in zeroing in on the problem.

Either way I reformatted and installed PacMan :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Well thats fine too.. ;) (ofcourse for obvious reasons)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] minkmendor:
2-1 nightly

new nightly doesn't work, 2-1-14 just sits on cm boot screen . tried upgrade and fresh install.. all the usual clears /wipe still nothing, 1/31 works tho

clockwork 6.0.3.8
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Yup..its broke for both devices..and many roms that use cm as a base..I'll look it over in the morn..
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] nicknc:
FYI

It's broken pretty much across the board. Affecting us on the One S and the Sensation.

02 Feb build is affected too.

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/58816/ might shed some insight
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
I already went through everything this morning and am successfully running a build now..I will see if it boots..Sometimes over at CM when it rains it pours..but it gets sunny again every once in awhile..

;)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] nicknc:
That is the truth.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] minkmendor:
glad i checked here before installing the 2-2 build... looking forward to hear if it boots! :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Sorry guys.. Got sidetracked by fixing my gummy builds first...got those dialed in nicely..let me know if the issues persist on tonights run (if it builds)..if the problems are still there I will dig...hopefully they are worked out..

Speakerphone Muting

I could not find an answer in this forum but has there been a fix for the speakerphone muting?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
Not yet..there are a bunch of people trying to get it though.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] joejag48:
Thanks!

I see you mentioning other ROMs, do those have speakerphone working? if so, how would I get my hands on them?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
No 4.4 ROMs have working speakerphone..if cm ain't got it.. No one will...(yet)...there are a few bugs like that in 4.4 but not enough of an issue as to stop me from using it.. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] minkmendor:
2-3 build is out..... anyone tried yet? :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] InkSlinger420:
I have not as I am running gummy now but it (should) be fine...
