BT headset Issues

NO issues with carrier.

My BT headset works fine with my iPhone.

I tired other BT on my tab it doesn't work for voice calls.

But SKYPE and VOIP works well.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Accessories] Ryan the Skitzo:
Are you only using skype and VIOP on wifi?

Could be the way your device handles carrier signals, in such a way it interferes with the bluetooth signals.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Accessories] jkjoms:
BT issues

i use Skype and VOIP on both wifi and mobile data at both instances it works fine but if i've to make a voice call through my phone i hear only static and distortion on the BT headset, the same headset i used on my iphone and laptop it works fine.

The BT even plays music well on tab but voice call is the problem. I tried pair and unpairing a number of times even i tried to select only call audio and unpaired my Iphone and laptop, still it is giving the same problem i mentioned above.

BTW PLANTRONICS M55BT HEADSET was working fine until official firmware upgrade to 4.2.2 was done. My device is rooted.

waiting for an immediate help :( :(

BT ISSUES

dear jkjoms

thanks for the reply... i had been using the stock based rom and was working fine... now again i switched to it(sungsonic hd anniversary edition)...

it is working fine with it.. but out of eagerness i am expecting some solution for it in kitkat custom roms, because they are slimmer and faster... anyhow thanks

I just bought a brando screen protector which seems pretty good.

However despite thinking I had cleaned the screen I have two light circles where I can now see a tiny bit of something in the center preventing contact.

What is the best way to clean the screen before application of the brando - as i was sure the screen was clean!

I guess I should ask the best way to clean the brando too - as i guess there is little point in doing one without the other.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] EastExpert:
Well, I cleaned my screen protector in the office bathroom.

There's plenty of running water from the tap and a powerful hand dryer.

I took with me:

1) My PDA (duh :))

2) Screen-Clene kit that is used for, um..., cleaning all kind of screens. I work for IT department so we have lots. It has a wet tissue in 1st bag, to remove all substances stuck to the screen, and a dry no-lint tissue in 2nd bag, to wipe it dry.

3) A short piece of Cellotape.

I went to the bathroom. It has a nice ledge to line up the items.

Step 1. Applied 2 pieces of Cellotape to the Protector across, and it went off the screen in a graceful manner without bending its corners.

Step 2. Used Screen-Clene to thoroughly clean & dry the screen.

Step 3. Used hot water to wash the Protector. Yes, mere hot water and just a tad bit of liquid soap. I helped it with gentle finger movements. You still can feel which side is a bit sticky and which is not.

Step 4. Took the Protector by its edges (not to smear it with fingerprints) and held under the Hand dryer until the water was blown off.

Step 5. Gently reapplied the Protector back on screen.

Step 6. Used a flat edge of a plastic ruler to squeeze out the air.

Nearly perfect (one lint still managed to get in... there's no such thing as lint-free air, I guess.)

Hi,

Friends and this definably representative question, I have Samsung Galaxy Nexus and now i am on "[ROM] [UNOFFICIAL] [01122014] CyanogenMod 11 for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus ", This rom is good but sometime apps get stuck and force to close etc etc,

So any friend who help me to find out some good rom based on ASOP or CM11 any, but atleast allow me to run apps smoothly.

Please help Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wajeeh4616:
You don't need roms for that, you need kernels try Franco's kernel. Cynogen is the most stable and bug free ROM out there.

Just one quick question after flashing with "cm-11-20140322-NIGHTLY-maguro.zip " CM11 Nightly, means Official CM11 because i was on "UNOFFICIAL" doest they make any conflict? If so then ill now i m moving on new cm11 "cm-11-20140322-NIGHTLY-maguro.zip " and i need to also flash with Franko Kernal ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Wajeeh4616:
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/

Get the latest version from here and be sure to select the correct device or you know..... Brick etc...

You can find many kernels on the development section of your device

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/development this is for maguro

You can use others but I prefer using Franco kernel as it is very easy to flash (you can download it's app from play store just type Franco kernels and download it. You can use auto flash option from it)

Remember these things are very tricky,it can make your device unusable if you install it incorrectly so..... Take care :D

And yeah nightlies are official so you better get them from their website as they are fully tested and it is less likely to go anything wrong with them

Omnimetal ROM

I know that people generally stick to Cyanogenmod due to it's stability, but I think it is overrated due to the fact that they support so many devices. I would prefer ROMs where the devs actually have the device, and focus on the device since they plan to have it for a while.

With that being said, here is my favorite ROM:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/development/rom-omnimetal-linaro-omni-rom-t2550477

I haven't had any issues (like apps that force close) on it, and apps run fine. In fact, I have also switched to ART and it is pretty stable and blazingly fast. My test was its battery life, and it lasted me close to 7 days on standby with groove ip running on it (receiving calls, texts, etc.), and 2 days with active usage with a sim card.

Hope this helps!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ftrack:
Thanks for atleast reply and suggesting me some ROM which is i ever try.. but now i am little confused, for selecting ROM, I made my mind as per last reply ROM from CM11 Nightly and Kernel From Franco but now OMNI i need to learn about that too.

Can anyone have suggestion on that or give me little more light on ROM.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sananth:
Its good to have choices

If you are new to flashing ROMs, usually CM 11 is an excellent choice.

However, to me speed, low RAM consumption and good battery life matters, so here are the reasons why I chose that ROM:

1. Linaro toolchain - Here is a link to explain why it is faster than standard CM:

http://www.androidauthority.com/linaro-android-is-up-to-twice-as-fast-as-stock-android-92831/

2. Dirty_V kernel - For speed, most of us Nexus users feel it is the best. It is an improvement over Franco's kernel

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/development/kernel-dirtyv-t2613655

So, I usually choose a ROM which uses the linaro toolchain. I also got a ton of cool features like notifications, omniswitch, etc. which you can read about in the ROM link from my previous post.

In the end, I am just giving you suggestions. Why don't you try creating a nandroid backup and then flashing many ROMs to see which one you like? Using the nandroid backup, you could always come back to the tried and trusted CM 11 !

Here is a small intro to nandroid backups which may be useful even in the future in case you mess up your phone with a bad update:

You might want to try omnirom (google for omnirom download, you want the maguro version).

They push daily updates (I install updates every 1-3 weeks). They closely track AOSP (meaning a new AOSP will be made available ASAP). It's a very stable rom and I'm running it my nexus 4 and a modified version on my Galaxy Nexus. It's been incredibly stable and reliable so far. Oh, and its 4.4.2 :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrgnex:
No try omnimetal! No try vanir! No try liquidsmooth! No try Xenonhd!. So you need to test everything. These threads are useless and not allowed. Choose one you like. Every rom is stable unless specified otherwise..

Which is the best format to compress to - and why do you recommend using the Core PMP rather than the Windows MP installed already?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] pat12:
TCMP can play any multimedia file, every format. It has a built in equalizer. It manages playlists much better than WMP. Lots of settings to play with but works very well out of the box with the default settings. As for the format... As long as you resize to 320x240, you can let pocketdivx encoder do its job (it has templates to make it easier) If you'd rather have mpeg files, then TmpgEnc is also a good bet.

Have fun!

I guess the real question is do you find $6.00 worth of value in the product this developer has offered-up for you and would you like to see them continue to improve it?

If so then pay the $6.00, I mean really how much cheaper could it be?

I shelled out $4.00 for 3D Air Hockey, great deal considering the hours of entertainment I've received in return for such a small contribution to the author.

I'm sure this question has been answered quite a lot of times on the forums here, but I'd simply like to gather all useful tips for extending my Android device's battery life, from the well-known "Turn off Wi-Fi when you're not around your hotspot" to "Allow only a few background services to run reducing CPU activity etc".

Just simple tweaks that do not require flashing any ROMs or root access in the first place.

Thanks! :D
[General Questions and Answers] LS.xD:
Nothing will be as powerfull as rooting your device ;) (I know you didn't want to hear this kind of answer... :rolleyes:)

BUT may be u can use some informations:

- Turn mobile network to "2G"

- Disable autosync

- Lower brightness of display

- Reduce "display stay active" time

- When u have an AMOLED display, use a "black" skin for your rom

- Disable wifi notification

- "disable wifi"

- "Allow only a few background services to run"

A real improvement will be:

- root

- uninstall all the stupid preinstalled crap of your stockrom

- disable autostarts you dont need

- may be disable wakelocks of apps you need and which act a lot on their own

- install a kernel which allows you control cpu settings --> Scheduler/Governor + CPU frequencies (lowering CPU freq)

- or setting cpu freq profiles automatically + undervolt system

get a stronger battery

I hope other members will add some or many more usefull tips ;)
