Yeah I figured that out when vol up and power key did nothing useful. Lol. Okay, is that a no on the boot menu? No one seems to wanna answer that question. Lmao. Also, I'm missing the numbers in front of the app icons showing you that you have messages etc waiting for you, do I need to enable that or? Thanks [emoji106]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
Is this what you were trying to do?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
This I know, old chum. Lol. My other roms have have had a 4 way reboot menu. When you hit reboot 4 options show : reboot, hot reboot, recovery, download mode. Now I use the TWRP app to reboot to recovery, etc. Annoying extra steps is all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
Here you go.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Who knew, not me. I really am not a noob. Lol. Thing is, I haven't messed with CM since my old D3 days. [emoji12]

Thanks, capt.

Boot menu works, but needs to be enabled. If you want icon badges get nova launcher because stock launchers don't do that here

Cool. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
Get this. Did anyone know that if you long press on reboot you get the option to boot into safe mode?

Tried it. Basically like launching the ROM for the first time. Wonder if it's good for troubleshooting bugs without having to wipe data?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] elreydenj:
Where do you copy this apn - xml file to? I am having ridiculous mms issues. I tried searching the thread to no avail... Is this apn file a fix for mms issues on Verizon?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
In hangouts or any SMS/MMS app?

You would copy it to /system/etc... but now I believe that rebooting isnt enough to activate these, you have to go into Settings, Mobile Networks, Access Point Names, Menu - Reset To Default. That should rebuild the db. This might fix issues in the stock sms or other sms apps, but not the latest hangouts. Turns out the latest hangouts has its own set of apns built in so it doesnt use the roms copy. I figured out why we see the wrong list of APNs in hangouts too. My build today might have a fix though. Building now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] elreydenj:
Just in Hangouts. Thank you for the info. Hopefully your build works it out!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
I usually don't send text/MMS messages the old fashion way these days, but when I do, I use the Handsent app & I sent a MMS message and it went through fine. Would this be an issue all around, Mastamoon, or just in the messaging app that comes w/ the rom? Just trying to help. Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Ok my fix didnt go as planned so I need somebody that is having mms issues, probably only in hangouts to try something for me. Need to either use adb shell or the terminal emulator on the phone.

get a shell prompt (adb shell)

get superuser (su)

type setprop gsm.sim.operator.numeric 311480

it should return the same thing back to you right under what you typed.

now go into hangouts and try to send a MMS. If it works, try another.

If you go into settings, access point names, you should now see Verizon entrys instead of Sprint and Metropcs. I think im on the right track here, but my trial of setting that prop at boot didnt work out. Trying to get more help from some smarter than me folks.

Let me know if it works/doesnt work for you. Remember, you only need to do this stuff if your having problems sending MMS in hangouts. If your having problems sending MMS in other SMS/Messaging apps, replacing the apns-conf.xml and then reloading apns might be enough.

Is anyone having issues with WiFiAP? It just instantly turns off. Logcat says it can't access a file (it's there). On my mobile so I'll have to link a pastebin in a few.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
One thing I want to ask about is the volume. The max volume is really REALLY loud compared to the stock max volume. I know very well that I can just keep the volume lowered but I'd like the stock volume loudness. Is this something I can adjust in my system or ? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Not a bug. [emoji1]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Lol. So loud though, I feel it would harm the speakers after a while. Lol. Anyway to adjust in system to normal/stock levels? Thanks, Masta
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Yeah Volume rocker on the side of the phone.

Appreciate your input. A true breath of fresh air. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
I know reading back a few pages (well, it's probably like 100 now; doesn't feel like it was all that long ago when we had this discussion) will have the answer that you're looking for, but I wrote up an article on how to adjust the speaker volume of qualcomm chips.

http://blog.itsnotfound.com/2013/12/increasing-external-speaker-sound-in-cm11/

Wow. That's almost a year old. Obviously you'll be lowering the values.

If you're not comfortable editing those system files then I would just not turn the handset up all the way. I keep mine on blast mode just so I can hear it across the office but keep it at about 3/4 when the phone is on my person.

Anyhow, we all tried different values and ended up settling on the value that is in Masta's builds. IDK if it was merged into CM's sources.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Thanks. I took the stock sound file and overwrote this roms sound file. Reboot and profit. Much appreciated, mikejr83.

Anyone else have issues with the latest build 10-20? Phone random reboot when using Maps and Browser since update and once phone reboots no cell signal.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rig24:
Having some issues. My processor is always at the maxed limit. Battery drains crazy fast (fully drained in an hour). I looked in the batter stats and the Android System is doing the most damage. Any ideas on troubleshooting steps I could take?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rig24:
Does it look the way it should? No MMS is driving me crazy, mainly because I keep getting notices on the group text I don't receive.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Unfortunately it looks like everybody elses.. those with and without working mms.

Have seen a few reports that complete wipe/reinstall has fixed up some users mms abilities.. Im guessing its more the datawipe than a system wipe. If you want to do a test to see if this will help you, do a nandroid backup, wipe system/wipe data, reflash rom/gapps.. and see if you can send an MMS. If it works, selectively restore your apps/data... if it doesnt, flash your backup.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rig24:
Will do, thanks. maybe it will get my phone to stop maxing out the processor all day.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rig24:
Gave it a shot, after the rebuild, the first MMS went through after a couple minutes. After that, nothing. :(

Good news, my wake lock problem has gone away.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Dang.

Somebody else said to put your phone into airplane mode then reboot.

Do you have whisper push enabled by any chance?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rig24:
upon further review, MMS seems to be going through, but it takes a few minutes to send a message.

If you can explain how to verify whisper, I will check.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
It's under privacy
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Anyone having an issue with mobile data after a reboot or shutdown then restart? I have to toggle data on/off to regain data signal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rig24:
Its not active. MMS is iffy at best to work since rebuilding the phone. Happy to do any other tests if you want to troubleshoot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
This worked for me to loosen up my power button when it decided to stop working one weekend a few months back. Unorthodox? Yes but it's been fine ever since.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] defTwitch:
couldn't help myself and g'morning =)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zcmack:
i actually just fixed my issue with a stuck power button. took the device down to the boards (really easy with a spudger and size 0 screwdriver, just check the ifixit link) but the power switch (on the board) looked fine.

in the actual casing of the phone, behind the plastic power button (the one that you are actually pressing from the outside, not the one on the board) there was a tiny sticker or sticky piece of rubber that looked slightly misaligned. i pushed it outward, back underneath the plastic button and viola, no more phantom power button presses or bootloops caused by a stuck power button.

i'd suggest giving this a try before hitting the phone on the table. there is no way my issue would have been fixed no matter how hard i hit it, and you're only risking shearing the power button from the motherbord.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ugachris:
I found out this morning that pictures I have been sending over MMS are coming through (to the recipient) stretched horizontally. Finally I realized it was related to Hangouts. I made the standard Messaging app my default SMS app and resent the photos, and they look normal now. Has anyone seen this? Any solution?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
Whoa! Mastamoon's new banner image thingy on the root of his site is somethin FIERCE! :P

Edit: Also, can't thank you enough for this "Modified cLock/LockClock weather description. No more truncated descriptions.". That's awesome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] V3TTOO:
Mastamoon! Thanks for the rom, it is working fantastic so far. Besides the BT issues I had on the weekend, which are now resolved, everything is working amazing. No issues with anything besides some expected bugs here and there but nothing that will prevent using it as a daily driver.

I was wondering, would it be possible to get the new dialer integrated and working without the stock?

I haven't tested it out myself, just wondering if it would be something you would want to add to your build.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] duarian:
I flashed the one in the themes&app section and it works great!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TwistingSoul:
Just wanted to check on this last bit of your message, Masta.

Does this mean we can switch to ART, and if so, I'm guessing we should do it from a barebones clean flash before any of our other apps are installed?

Personally, I've never had any luck switching to ART, even after a clean flash. It just sits on the CM boot logo for a very long time (read: for bloody ever), and don't even get me started on switching to ART after installing my own desired apps (FB/Twatter/etc.).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Ive been told it works now... I still don't recommend it on a day to day basis.. Technically it's still a developer option that's hidden to the everyday user.

Let us know if you try it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] duarian:
I've been using it, there isnt much of a difference yet but its definitely 'snappier', all of the apps I use are stable with it on.

I have a question, what did you edit in the SMS app that increased the MMS quality? I'm using a custom themed one and want to make sure whoever built it did the same (I unpacked it and tweaked the colors a bit).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Mms_config .xml I believe it is. There is info about the tweak all over the forums.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] duarian:
Thanks! I'll have to compare the two and make sure they match. Appreciate the response.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aali1011:
Flash 12/18 and having a similar issue. Battery shows that I am completely depleted and no battery options in settings. Will try to redownload and flash again otherwise go to the official nightly :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Did you flash a different kernel?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] duarian:
Custom kernels are broke again on the 12/18 nightly. Ktmanta just updates his to work, otherwise it will be broken.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aali1011:
Yes Ktoonsez

Ktoonsez has also released a update so i will download that and flash Mastamoon's and be a happy camper... hopefully. Glad it got sorted so quick though

Rather than make a new post a quick question to the general masses. TWRP doesn't work with CM11 currently correct? We are going to have to wait for something on their end? Like TWRP a lot and looking forward to going back at some point in time
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] insertnewsn:
Can anyone post a link best suited for d2vzw and 4.4 roms? Tried a search but am too nervous to try one.. lest they leave me with zero MMS ability at all ::gasp:: !
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AdMire:
I've been using TWRP to flash CM11 since the get go. I'm using 2.6.3.1 (I believe that's the order of the number) - you have to go to their actual site to get it though, I don't think it's in their thread.

Edit: Here you go, it's the last one http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/d2vzw

I used this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgollner.flashify to flash it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] duarian:
Now that 4.3 is out, will this help the progress at all for 4.4 ROMs due to the new binaries? Or would they really not help much? Just curious.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aali1011:
Weird I have been flashing them through goomanager and it wasn't working. Hmmmm would like to see if others have anything to say. BTW the rom is up and running after the kernel issues and nothing major to report thus far.:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BrwnSuperman:
MMS only works for me if I'm off Wifi. I turn off Wifi to send/receive MMS.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rig24:
I'd take that.... Can't get it to work on or off wifi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Master Cylinder:
I'm using Xposed with XHalo Floating Windows and XBlast Tools with ZERO issues. No memory problems or CPU usage. Been using it for about 6 months. Floating windows allows multiple windows - more than 2 - and can also act like the Samsung multi-windows.

Also, just to report that since I upgraded to NE1 got no MMS problems or any others. Just so it doesn't look like everyone on this ROM is having trouble. On 10/15 at the moment. Happy to report smoooth sailing!:cool: (Also sorry to hear others are having trouble.)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] defTwitch:
I can't remember what "date" i'm on but also want to report smooth sailing... no issues whatsoever.

again not to rub it for those with issues...

but agree its nice for some to know this rom has happy customers too =)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Darryl Henley:
on 10/27 lost IMEI, back to 10/24 and working.

edit - it was bad download.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CrustyMcLovin:
Yeah same here, can't get MMS to work and cycling wifi or airplane mode doesn't resolve it. I am using the NE1 radio but I haven't clean flashed in a long while so I'm not complaining. If I cared about MMS then I'd likely do a clean install and then try again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Anyone try Handsent from the Play Store? I've used it since forever and they added a few features a bit ago with the default mms in KK and the carrier selection section. Instead of using smart setting, you can use your carrier in the menu. Maybe that'll help. Just a thought.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CrustyMcLovin:
Thanks! This worked. Using handcent with Wifi turned off.. worked fine and MMS message was sent.

I *suspect* the issue is that the Verizon MMSC http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms can only be reached using the mobile data connection and not over Wifi. I wonder if this could be fixed by changing the routing table but I've never done that on android. Looking into it now..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Mine works with wifi on.. but you could try pinging that url and getting the IP then adding it to your hosts I guess.

Do you by any chance have adblock installed on your phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Glad I could help [emoji106]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CrustyMcLovin:
Yes I do have adblock and after turning it off the MMS messages work over Wifi. I didn't even think of that. Don't even need to use Handcent SMS, stock messaging app works fine. I feel kinda dumb now..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Dont worry about it. Ive wondered if this was an issue with adblock for awhile. I have used adblock in the past and never had a problem. They must have blacklisted an IP at some point in recent months that made this start happening. Now how to figure it out cuz I need adblock!

Whoops, I use AdAway not adblock.. but I bet they use the same lists.. or have a list in common.

I just checked all 4 of the lists that AdAway uses, the mms url my phone resolves to is 69.78.81.38 thats not listed anywhere.

Anyway, in AdAway, Im going to whitelist *.vtext.com and see if I bump into that no mms over wifi issue. Does adblock have that capability?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
So the whole MMS thing that's been keeping me from jumping on the latest nightlies is tied to adblock? Doing a clean wipe since it's been a while, but just checking.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] defTwitch:
Ok... say wait a minute =)

I have a HORRIBLE time sending MMS where I live. And they NEVER go over wifi. Is that just part of your app / handcent or phone settings. I'm on GO SMS Pro.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Not sure. Do you use adblock/adaway?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
Nope. That's why I was thinking it was safe to go to the 29th build. Doing a nandroid right now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Master Cylinder:
I also use Adaway with no problems. Am using Handcent.

EDIT: But I'm on 10/15.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CrustyMcLovin:
Not sure about GO SMS Pro but in my particular example I believe the problem was related to the use of Adblock on a Wifi network. I can't say for sure though because I've had funky MMS issues on multiple version of Cyanogenmod on different hardware on different mobile providers.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Yes it does. But then Ad Block is ummm... how should I put it, embroiled in controversy ? :)

To the Main point, Each APN consists of a URL as one of the parameters. (MMSC and APN) Make sure to Add both to White List.I use AdAway for a Looooong time. Never had any beef with it. Don't use AdBlock. But quiet possible that app has an issue ? Also might be an idea to request exclusion of MMS APNs from Blacklist of the filters at the Source.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NoCrAppleHere:
Anyone having an issue since let's say since the last 2 builds that you'll be typing in any app, me it happened in Facebook, Maps and Kakao Talk, and the screen just goes blank as u r typing? It goes blank and the back and menu softkeys stay lit for a few seconds then the phone reboots. Only happens once in a blue, but it didn't happen before. I use SwiftKey, could that be the issue? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Something is still off... but im able to send MMS with adaway right now. But if you try to ping mms.vtext.com or vtext.com from your phone while on wifi, it fails hard. But on cell, no problem. But my phone right now cant ping vtext.com but can send mms over wifi.. sooooooo meh.

My problem is verizon coverage. Not this rom. My wife on her iphone has same issue.

But my phone doesn't try to use WIFI to send and receive MMS. Just wondering how I can make that happen. Certain apps, or it should be already, or a setting or... didn't realize I had the option.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Cant ping from my PC either... and another phone on CM but not a d2 cant ping it either while on wifi so it must be "NORMAL".

I guess some routing magic happens while on wifi to send mms, not sure whos fault it is when it doesnt work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Try Google Voice.

Router's Fault. Either Use OpenDNS or Call your Internet Provider for Correct DNS Settings. Typically observed on DSL connections. Problem not exclusive to DSL though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I had a few people in IRC check theirs too... same result. Unable to ping mms.vtext.com or vtext.com over wifi.

Bonus points he didn't fix the issue either... but I appreciate him stopping my routers setup as repeaters from working. It's always fun to go back and set that up.

My router/modem should be setup on google DNS but I'll do some pinging / checking when I get home. Thanks!

Mms issues might be fixed in the next build. Sadly I prefer baby won't have a build out till Monday. Jump on the next official nightly (10/31) if your having mms issues and let me know if it's all good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mikejr83:
Alot of mms discussion since yesterday afternoon....

Anyhow I'll report back that I moved to the 29th build and have been able to send mms without issue over WiFi and cell. I did a complete wipe and very selective restore of apps and every thing seems to be running very smoothly.

I did notice that I'm one the ML1 baseband. I had previously thought that I was on NE1. I guess I never flashed that zip...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dmginc:
Are you going to put out a build real quick today? I'm still trying to figure out who and why people seem to get the issue. It almost seems random.
