Hi Ohmster,

Thank you very much for such a detailed reply. Yes, I use the gsm part of my xt912 that came fom Verizon.

I the next few days I'm going to flash it exactly as you suggested and will post an update how its went.

Thanks!

Hi Ohmster,

Thanks, I did everything as you suggested and it went pretty well except one thing - outgoing sms fails.

I tried both : native messages app and hangouts, set sms correct center num (for my provider) via *#*#3646#*#* and still nothing. I had thr smae problem before with cm11 and that is why I decided to go with another firmware.

I searched through the internet and seems like this issue is not very common since I could not find any working solution.

Do you have any ideas what can be responsbile for this? What else can I try?

Thanks

[]I do apologize if this has been answered, couldn't exactly find an answer to it. If there is said answer, direct a link? :]

Anyway, Any 4.4.x ROM I have tried throws me into a bootloop. I have followed said instructions on flashing a ROM with SS. I am using SS 3.7x

Thankfully I can boot back into the stock ROM. I am fairly new to this phone but not new with flashing / rooting other devices.

EDIT: Forgot to mention it is the Verizon Droid RAZR w/ latest JB stock ROM

EDIT 2: Figured it out! I flashed the umts_spyder instead of spyder. Derp.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iamteachme:
no voice mail notification

hey guys i am running cm 11 nightly 8-11-2014 spyder version and no matter what i do i cant get voicemail notifications. i set the light to red turn on custom values and all but no blinking . i am on verizon please help.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Narcof:
I had this problem, found the solution in the build.prop changes in this thread:

forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/83134-cant-send-sms-1013/

Not all of the lines were in my build.prop file, I changed the ones that were in it, then I rebooted and it worked.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
LOL! :laugh:

Thanks for the update.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Hmmm, this is a new one. I am trying to figure out what you mean. Like when someone calls, you miss the call, and you have voicemail waiting? I do get messages in the Notification Bar when I swipe down the left side to see what I missed. It is nice because I can just tap the voicemail notice and it will dial my voicemail for me. And what, you want your notification LED to flash and give you notice of this event? Is that what you mean?

I also have US on Verizon US. If it works for me, it should work for you. :)

I am on build 08/14 now.

I never tried that but it should be possible in Settings. Let me have a look but not too far until I know for sure what you want. Settings/Display and lights/Notification light. Oh, it is right there to set it up. I already did mine, I have Cyan as color for voicemail with long pulse and fast repeat. see screenshot. Does it actually work? I can call my phone, leave a test voicemail, and see if it does. I have had problems in the past with the LED not working, let me put the screen to sleep to double check. Yes, working with standard green pulse. Now voicemail test.

Alright, left voicemail message, heard ding sound from phone, watching the LED, ...standard green. Missed call and voicemail colors are really not working. Darn it.

Gee, I got the voicemail notice in the pull down too. This is what I mean about having issues with it in the past. The colors do work well in the assign color screen, but fail to actually work in real life. Make sure I have the color set right, there is a good chart for this here, and the top 50 colors here. I like to use the color chart so I know that I am putting in a recognized color by hexadecimal values. Magenta FF00FF and Cyan ppFFFF seem to be good colors, I have "Use custom values" checked. Let's see what taking the "custom values check" off does. Phone go night night. Wow, no light at all. Put it back, night night. Nothing. Get out of menu, still nothing. Reboot...

Not touching it and it is taking forever for screen on lockscreen to go out. Should go dark in a minute but this is taking much longer than that. Oh, still rebooting. I hear incoming mail sound, screen dimmed and went out. Now we see. There is still voicemail waiting. Yes! We have the magenta voicemail LED notification!

Okay, it works. I just forgot about these settings as I do not often stare at the Notification LED, but I do feel it is important and should work right. Try the settings I described or pick your own colors, preferably from the chart, but you can move your finger around the color panel to find a color you like, if you want. Let us know how it goes. :cowboy:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iamteachme:
ok ill try your settings but ....

i dont get voicemail notification in the pull down bar no sound just flashing missed call light. checked it yesterday had 6 messages and no light or notifications.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
You know, I had put the phone on charge in the bedroom, went to the kitchen to make dinner, and when I came back, I wanted the phone. I see the LED flash, "greenish", but normally I do not pay a lot of attention to it. The color was not green, but cyan. That means voicemail. Sure enough, swipe down from the top left of the notification bar, see the pull-down menu, and there it is, one new voicemail. Tap that message on the pull down bar and voicemail opens up, dial in my password, and it is my mom, I missed the call being out of the room. So yes, this feature does work in cm11.

Let me see if I can show you the pull-down. The light might be difficult unless recorded with video cam. Oh I cannot get a screen shot of the pull-down menu, the menu goes up when I try to get the screenshot.

I explained what works, how it works, where to find it, how to see it, and how to set it up. What are you missing, iamteachme? I would be glad to help you out but I am not sure where you are stuck. All versions of cm11 have had this feature for months. The proper install and my install is a clean install of a late version nightly build of cm11 and a late version of pa-gapps. That is it, those are the only two files to flash in Safe Strap and if this is your first or initial setup, it should be done on a clean slot. If you need good install instructions, here you go:

Basic Install Instructions for a Clean Install of CyanogenMod ROM 11

Do you have a current version of cm11 installed? Only cm11 and pa-gapps? What part are you missing that I explained or what more would you like to know. I want to help you but where are you stuck? :confused:

Edit:

Now I have a blue flashing Notification LED. That means a new Facebook message is there and right in the left pull-down menu, there it is. Tap to go view the message on Facebook. If you need to see the pull-down menu, I can try to get it with a webcam, or take the picture with my cm11 tablet.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iamteachme:
i am trying your clean install guide now ....

ok i get facebook light i get missed call light i get text light and even email light i get nothing for voicemail. i am going to try clean install as i have deleted cm anyways and set up just as you instructed and try and leave a voicemail. ill let ya know how it goes. I suppose you arent having my mms not sending issue either ?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iamteachme:
OK ak after testing just found no voice mail drop down on cm or stock ROM. Any ideas ?

---------- Post added at 02:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:54 AM ----------

OK so called version and apparently my phone was missing the voicemail feature but I could manually check them.

After they added voicemail to my account it works now. If I could just get mms to work I'd be set.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iamteachme:
Voicemail was suppose to be on there works good now. Gotta figure out MMS and I'm good. Thanks for your help bro.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] crackerjack1957:
Well Verizon is getting ready to screw their unlimited plan customers come October of 2014. Anything over 4.75g & you get throttled. They are claiming this will help free up data bandwidth but in reality all they want to do is put more money in their pockets because if you pay for it you can get all the data you want.

I have 3 phones under the unlimited plan with no other means of internet access in my area other than capped satellite internet.

Corporate America s***s!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
So I take it they are going to follow the AT&T/T-Mobile model and drop your data to 2G speed when you hit the limit. That's like slow death! BUT, because Big Red is the good guys (read that: highest price in town), they will give you a whopping 4.75 Gig! Yippie! My three lines were topping 20Gig before I had to save money by dumping my unlimited plan...

[Motorola Droid RAZR] iamteachme:
Yeah I came from virgin mobile after 2.5 gigs of 4g I was getting 30 KBS
[Motorola Droid RAZR] crackerjack1957:
They are offering data plans up to 100gig for $750 just for the data on their more everything plan.

If there was a bandwidth problem on the towers to throttle unlimited users only why would they offer all these high end data packages.

Looks to me like the more everything plan is the more money plan for Verizon.

Verizon wants $150 for the 20gig & $300 for the 40gig plan plus $40 a month for each smartphone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
They are talking about MMS in the main thread again. This issue crops up from time to time. Seems to be a loss of APN issue. Some people get this issue constantly, some never get it, I do not, at least not with the Verizon provider I have in this area. I get black screens when other people don't.

Tap Settings/Mobile network settings/Access Point Names/ then tap 3 dot menu, top right, Reset to default. Reboot, but you might as well reboot to recovery, in Safe Strap, wipe dalvik and cache. That should fix it. Let us know if you need more help after that. :)

Heads Up on the Thanks Button and Thanks Meter for Newbies and "Not so Newbies":

...to help get people to like you and help you, learn how to use the Thanks button on XDA. Read about it in the link. When someone goes out of their way to get you straight, and to show that you appreciate the help, you tap the "Thanks" button on the bottom left of the post you found helpful. It will boost that particular member's "Thanks" count, a tiny but lasting reward for helping, and it costs nothing. It will also encourage that member, and others that see it, to help you again because you gave them that cookie.

You are not a Junior anymore, try to learn this before you hit Senior Member. ;)

Tell us if the APN reset, dalvik and cache wipe work. We have been battling this issue for a long time and are trying to find an easy fix that works in most cases. :)

...it didn't work? You got a good guy helping you with this, [MENTION=2774395]my2cents[/MENTION] gets this issue all the time. Wiping android.secure will not hurt anything and is reported to help clear up this issue in many cases. Good luck! :good:

That zip file is the same as doing all that really hard file changing, permission changing, and all that. Just use the zip if one of the other methods work. You have to flash this zip file in Safe Strap just like any update or rom file.

WatchESPN

I'm having trouble with the WatchESPN app on CM11. Once you click on a show to watch, it rotates and goes into full screen mode but the actual video is only taking up part of the screen and the edges are just pixelated garbage. Anyone else having this issue?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
yfz350, I am trying to get you some help in the Main Thread, I do not use the app and we have a lot more members there. Let's see if anyone has seen this before and can help you with it.

Does this happen in any other video application like youtube or any kind of video game?

:fingers-crossed:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] yfz350:
Thanks Ohmster

---------- Post added at 05:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:13 PM ----------

YouTube, videos from camera and Facebook videos all work. I don't play any games on it but I'll be glad to test other apps if you have suggestions.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
No, not really unless you can get a screen shot of the problem when it happens. If you press the power button in to get the power down menu, do you have "Screenshot" in the menu? If so, tap that Screenshot when it happens so we can sit it, then use the Manage Attachments button below new post window to submit it. :silly:

Well I see some things have been going pretty strangely in my absence. Jesus man. Lol
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Thanks for the screenshot. Looks like bad accelerated graphics but if only on this one video app, need to test to find out for real.

Is this WatchESPN a pay app or something I can try out for you? I did give another member in this thread directions on how to clear up corrupted video accelerator graphics with a clean install of two files. He fixed it overnight. Before I tell you to do that, I would like to see this app myself. If it requires a login to use, PM me about it. Don't worry, I will not steal your login. I do not watch sports on TV or at all, really. Just trying to get you some help. Now that Jake is back, he might have some ideas. He is the hardest working helper XDA ever had. Nobody puts in more time here than Jake when it comes to helping others. Great dude, you will see. :fingers-crossed:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] yfz350:
Appreciate the help! It is a free app and requires a login for certain portions but it does have some free videos you can watch on the news tab if you'd like to try it out.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] yfz350:
I just had a friend log in to test Netflix and video works fine on it too
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kaziq:
Are you sure that it's the app and not the phone? If an app works well on any phone, except our version of CM11, that suggests something. What is the proper way of determining the screen resolution? I don't know, but perhaps the programs already use it, but they fail to work on our CM11 because of a software flaw? Not accusing anyone of anything, just thinking aloud :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] yfz350:
I tried emailing the dev of the WatchESPN app, however from the playstore the dev email is no_response@espn.com. I looked over the reviews for the app and toggled "From this device model only" and a few others have complained about the same issue. I then found a place for feedback in the settings on app and received an email back stating they would contact me with case #02434113. :fingers-crossed:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] yfz350:
I have successfully used the WatchESPN app without issues for this phone previously on Eclipse JB rom but decided to upgrade and try out KK with CM11. Haven't tried any other roms yet to confirm if the problem exist elsewhere.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Well, AFAIK, it is "both". The reason I say this is because the ESPN app works well on other phones but not cm11. The app is getting screen res right, but not the video feed. If the app cannot determine the correct screen res, we get problems like this. The phone is "at fault" because it is not making it's screen res known by traditional methods. I just went through this with another app in the very same week. I wanted Hex Editor pretty bad, gorgeous app, does what I want but will not install or work on cm11.

Wrote the dev, gave logs, tried a new experimental build, gave logs, and the dev wrote back the app cannot get the screen resolution right to install or work. He sent another experimental build and this one works properly. Unfortunately this dev is not terribly friendly or chatty so that is all I got our of him, plus the app, custom built, for cm11. And ONLY because he got complaints before from cm11 users. His reading of the logs revealed that cm11 is not reporting it's resolution so he took that part out of his app. BTW, no apps or tools I have found will report CPU temperature in cm11. Perhaps the same situation. New OS and apps cannot get the right "read on all of it". :confused:

His website is all written in Russian and I made the "mistake" of calling him Russian. He got upset or offended and told me that had wars about this stuff. I apologized but he should not be so hot headed or jump to conclusions about app clients. I have Ukrainian friends and sent him pictures of us having fun together. :p

Building a totally new OS like CM11 is a really big project that employs hundreds if not more developers, almost all of which do not get paid for their time. Making screen res and CPU temperature easily available to all apps may be an over site or they have not gotten to it. One can only send bug reports to CM on snapshot builds, which I do not have installed. Whether they acknowledge it, get to it later, work on it right away, or dismiss it is anybody's guess. So, yes, it could be the phone, but I don't have the developer skill to modify it.

What to make of all this? Well, you got the facts, make up your own mind. ;)

Stock ROM 4.1.2 for XT912

I have been searching for the Stock ROM for the XT912 and haven't had any luck. Does anyone have a flashable I could use? I need it to go and fix my SIM card. 4G LTE isn't workin' and I've tried just about everything to get it fixed. It could be hardware since the phone is so old, but I haven't tried going back to stock and seeing if I get LTE and updating the RIL and PRL over the Verizon Network on a stock based ROM. If anyone can help, that would be awesome. Remember I'm looking for a flashable (via recovery not RSDLite)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
I haven't seem a flashable, presumably rooted, stock image in a long time... You might check droidrzr.com, but you'll have to look under legacy devices. (Yes, that's what they call the phone that started it all for them...)

On another note, unlike full RSDlite, Matt's utility will restore the stock ROM to your stock slot without wiping your internal storage. You just have to use the utility to root after, then install a recent version of SafeStrap to access your slots again (yes, they'll still be there). I used it to reload pristine stock on my phone so I could take the .165 OTA and update my radio. The included RAZR blade root exploit will work on the OTA, or you can root it first, use voodoo to protect root, update and restore. A little bit of work, but guaranteed to give you a clean start.

You are talking about the utility here?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
Pree-cisely! Most of us on here for any length of time have a copy salted away on a hard drive for a rainy day, it has saved us many times over. Witness my post on the main thread regarding wiping stock slot and accidentally rebooting! As the man said, you need a newer version of SafeStrap than the one bundled with the utility. I keep promising myself to update his utility to flash the last OTA and install the latest SafeStrap, I just have to change his script and substitute the binaries. If I ever get around to it, I'll upload the patched version with full kudos to Matt Groff.

Wow, they are pretty tough on the old workhorse XT912 over at DroidRzr.com. "Legacy" "Old Phone". Yeah well, we all cannot afford a new Galaxy right now. ...sigh!

I sure want him on my good side! LOL! Thanks for the help. I got it to work perfectly.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
You are welcome. :D

Do yourself a favor and keep that utility. Burn it to a CD or something, keep a copy of it. This is the #1 stock rom restorer that all of us use in here. ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
Well, I kinda pinned myself to the wall by saying I was going to do this; so here we go...

This is a simple update to a great utility most of us know and love, no credit belongs to me, all glory goes to:

Matt Groff (mattlgroff) - this utility!

Dan Rosenberg (djrbliss) - RAZR Blade root exploit

Michael Scott (Hashcode) - SafeStrap

For the incredible help they have been to all of us!

All I have done is:

1. Replace both the phone firmware and SafeStrap with the most up-to-date versions.

2. Address an issue where the phone does not mount partitions quickly enough, causing the root exploit to fail.

I hope this saves a little time when everything falls apart on you, or if you just need a clean start!

Can anyone tell me how to mount my external SD card as read-write? I just bought a SanDisk 64GB SDXC UHS-I card. When I first put it in it seemed to work OK, but after a reboot my phone says it is read only and I need to remount it as read-write. I've tried reformatting as extFAT and FAT32,. I've also tried reformatting from my phone in recovery (i.e. wipe MicroSD card), but I always get the same problem (usually after a reboot). Any suggestions?
