[Thats right, you my friend deserve a beer but had I not abandoned my on thread a day I wouldnt be rooted now and on 4.4.2 lol.And yes I should've referenced your 1st reply in this thread because thats what triggered the search for router settings for 4.3-4.4.2 sammys. If you don't mind I want to post a screenie from my router settings and see if you could possibly help me get my wifi speeds higher than the 5mb I'm getting after I made the change, before I always got atleast 25mb on the speedtest.net app . I'll have to wait till I get home.

I have never had any WiFi issues with my note 3. I consistently get 55mbps+. I did have some WiFi calling issues when I was on 4.3 after messing with some xposed modules and using a custom ROM, which was known for WiFi issues. But I have my router set to 5ghz. I use the upper extension channel and 40mhz channel Width. I use a custom router software called ddwrt.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] fastguy:
Hi,

I've noticed an audio output distortion of some frequencies when listening to music, in the sound coming out of the 2.5mm jack.

When the speakers on the device is used, there is no problem.

When I plug the headphone, there is sound output, I hear the music, but some frequencies are lowered so much that I can't hear the singers voice. When I unplug, the speakers work fine and I can hear the singer again.

In additon that, most of the background instruments can be heard as well as the backvocals, if they are female.

It's like the sound is being processed (like an equalizer) when I plug the headphone, some frequencies are lowered, given some echo, reverb etc.

I don't understand how this is possible. I am thinking of a hardware contact problem, but it's hard to believe if this is a hw problem.

I've tried two firmwares (2.16.x, 2.25.11.1) and made hard reset also. No result.

Any ideas?

Note: I can try to actually record the sound tonight if anyone wants to hear.

Best regards,

Fast
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] kiru:
maybe try a different headset first?....could be a short in the cable, because what you are describing is a phasing issue with the headset speakers...... :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] fastguy:
Thanks for the response Kiru,

Just tried a different headset plugging it into my HAMA 2.5 --> 3.5 adapter. same result.

I will try the original headphone came with the Wizard. If the source of the problem is the HAMA adaptor, this should resolve it. (i hope it is)

Could you please elaborate on the "phasing issue" ?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] kiru:
Hmm....how can I explain.....Let's start with the speaker itself. A speaker has two terminals on it, one postive and one negative. What we want is to have the positve from the source (ie. Amplifier) to the positive terminal of the speaker, and the same for the negative. Since there is a pair of speakers, we want them to be hooked-up correctly. If hook-up correctly then the speakers are in phase with each other, and this is called constructive interference, hence in phase. When ONLY ONE of the speakers is hooked-up backwards, we call this destructive interference, hence being out of phase. Being out of phase causes frequencies to cancel or sound muffled. Hope you kind of get what I mean, but I highly doubt that this is the problem with headphones because heaphones nowadays rarely get manufactured with this problem. This is just the electrical part of phasing. Also, you can have one speaker, and it could sound out of phase because of the distance it is firing from walls or the shape of the room due to the reflections of sound, this is called acustical phasing.

A short in the cable, meaning the positve and negative wire are somewhat touching, can cause a similar effect, and I suspect that this is problem for you. As you now state that you are using an 2.5 to 3.5 adaptor, I would agree with you that most likey you have a faulty adaptor.

Hope this helps! :) and keep me posted!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] fastguy:
Hi again,

Thanks again for the explanation Kiru, I know a bit of electronics so I got the problem.

However, I'm now home and tried to original headset, no result. The same problem is existing.

This makes me believe that I've broken something inside the Wizard which shortcircuits something. I'm very dissapointed.

Maybe the only way is now to buy a stereo bluetooth headset...

Thanks for your help :)

I got this unit from priceminister second hand. It's origin is not France, I don't have a purchase receipt neither.

By the way, I solved the problem. I disassambled the unit using the info given in one of the posts in the forum. I played a little with the contacts, there was oxidation in the outer solders, i cleared them up etc, it 's working at the moment. :)

I'll post some pictures afterwards.

:( I got the same problem. Was working fine for 2 months then all of a sudden the headphone plug is all messed up. Volume is all distorted I can sometimes hear a song but quality is no where near the original. Usually everything sounds echoed. I think something is wrong with the plug
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] xenos:
I've had the same problem. The headphone jack on the Wizard is crap. If you have your Wizard in your pocket with an adapter, as you move, the adapter pries back and forth on the jack. This breaks the cheap jack.

If you want to listen to your Wizard as an music player, you should invest in a nice set of bluetooth headphones and only plug the jack in when the wizard won't be moved around a lot, like a home or car stereo.

I recommend Nextlink Spider headphones. They double as a headset and you can navigate through your library with the button on them.

MUSIC Speed

I got the same problem here. The SE stereo btooth headset isnt yet in our place.

Anyway, i experienced this one with ROM2.16 Imate. The sound speed or music speed seems to being played faster than normal. But when i tried to plug the 2.3-3.5 adopter and quickly pull it out, the sound is played in normal speed then. strange.....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] peanut:
are you all sure that the wizard has a stereo output ? I thought it was mono.

Anyway you can get earpieces and headphones with a 2.5mm jack so you don't need a 2.5-3.5mm adapter.

Maybe the contacts on your jack are not connecting properly with the internal contacts of your adaptor

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul Caten:
Good day to all!

I have a SGS III running JellyBean 4.1.2 (I don't know the stock with which it came with) and I am trying to do a sim unlock

I have tried many apps sugested on the forums and I even tried getting the nv_data.bin with ADB and using a hexeditor but the position specified in the tutorials does not exist

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/general/guide-how-to-sim-unlock-galaxy-siii-free-t1718665 (Step 2)

Also unlocking apps say that the phone has a different protection system than expected (otherwise they would have done what I have tried manually)

I will attatch the nv_data.bin, any bit of information will be GREATLY appreciated!

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mike02z:
Not sure why anyone is suprised. Those of us with the M7 knew this month's ago. For the first day after the M7 was released you could use HTC DEV unlock then VZ made HTC lock that down for the M7.

I too hoped maybe VZ had not gotten to HTC yet for the M8 so I tried but no luck. Will need to wait for rumrunner or firewater to be updated to support the M8. It may take a while....
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] PhilPan:
I'm coming from a Note 3 so I'm not familiar with the M7, did rumrunner or Firewater allow for running custom asop roms?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mike02z:
Yes sir. Rumrunner gave you S-Off which is "Signature Off". Once that is set, you can flash custom recoveries and then custom rom's. It took months for the team to get this working and I know it did not work on 4.4.2. I think we are in for a long wait. If you bought this hoping you could get custom rom's you might want to reconsdier. If you like the phone and can live with it stock for a few months, it's a great device.

The M7 was the best phone I ever had and I swap phones a lot.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sfreemanoh:

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] oneandroidnut:

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mike02z:

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] andybones:
S-OFF actually stands for Security Off :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] 123421342:
I think the s-off devs had no incentive to develop the exploit for 4.4.2, but now they might because of the M8. It also has an sd card slot so perhaps that is another route for an exploit. Sit tight, we might have a root exploit at the least soon. Either way, it will get s-off just like every HTC phone.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] oneandroidnut:
i sure hope so! i am thinking the same that it will come soon enough!! :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] JJflipped:
Does anyone know if we can edit CID to 11111111 without s-off?

i think they are looking,and either havent released it yet or havent found any new holes. there is plenty of incentive,just as there is here. dont ever take stuff for granted. folks say "theres always a new exploit". its possible there will come a time when there will not be.

again,i point to the one x. to this day no s off.

I'm sorry I know that this comment is of no help and just takes up space but did people really think VzW was going to allow HTC Dev to work on the M8?

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] shojus:
The tegra 3 was a different beast... Name one Qualcomm that has not? :fingers-crossed:
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] scotty1223:
there are actually a few i can think of that never got a radio s off,only a patched hboot,and the evo design never even got that :eek:

in all fairness there wasnt much of a demand with the design,or with other devices that were able to get "fake" s off via a patched or eng hboot. for most folks,that was good enuff.

all im saying,is that it is possible for a qualcom device to someday be locked down tight enuff we cant mess with it,and if that happens folks not on the official unlock list are up a creek,so to speak. dont count on it just becasue "it always does",and if/when it does,but greatful,donate to the devs who brought it,and most importantly:

take advantage of that oportunity while its here!

you never when the next OTA will close the door(aka vzw m7 4.4.2)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] 123421342:
I agree however, new chipset and SoC could mean new exploits. Also not to mention having an sd card could provide a new avenue for exploits.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] shojus:
I know I was just messin with ya. :p I don't take anything for granted nowadays cause holes are closing left and right (Samsung Knox) and I know ALL about that 4.4.2 on the original One cause I had to do a swapout with Verizon cause the One I purchased was on 4.4.2 so I guess I was lucky enough to get a refurb on 4.2.2 so I at least have one S-off device now. Crossing fingers for the M8! :) Take care

Really... Hmm interesting. I can't stand Verizon (even though I work for them, on the field tech side rolling out AWS) but there are many colleagues at work that root and rom. There is dissension among the ranks at VzW when it comes to the lock down, we're not all douc**bags. Point is I work for them so I have to use their phones for call testing, handover testing ect. The day I quit I'll probably go to tmo.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Tomsgt:

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] CB620:
How many months was that?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] replica9000:
For the M7, I think it was about 2 for the software S-Off. There was a guy offering S-Off with a java card if you sent him your phone. So some people didn't wait as long.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] CB620:

What will happen if we use some else M8 token from HTC Dev to try and unlock our variant?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] replica9000:
Won't work. Tokens are unique to every phone. People had looked into that for the M7.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] 123421342:
Tokens are signed according to your phone, based on the output that you paste into the website. I believe that is the public key or something. Either way, it is specific to each phone. Unless you get HTC's private keys or manage to decipher them based on a huge collection of tokens (which will probably take years of processing power), we are SOL. The verizon M7 took like 1.5-2 months I believe, was not a terrible wait. Beaups and company are already on it, sit tight they are smart guys. If it is possible, they will figure it out.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Crooke356:
For the Moto X (non dev editions), there is a guy, maybe 2, over in China that sells unlock codes for $40. You send him your IMEI number and 24-48 hours later, you get your code. Lol, it sounds sketchy, I know, but check the X section. Lots of people are reporting success on taking their Moto Maker and retail X's and unlocking them like a Dev Edition. I'm not saying it has anything to do with the our device but it's interesting. Some guy in China either has access to the code generator "program"?? Or is...? I have no idea lol but it's happening.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] 123421342:
He could have access to the private key or something, I don't know. I also wonder how you could pay random companies to get you a sim unlock code.... I really want to know.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Crooke356:
Me too. I would think it would have to be the software used to generate the codes. He must have access to it. If it were a company thing, I would assume they'd stop it, you know they patrol this place...but then again, it's Motorola. The company that gives me a warranty on my unlocked, rooted X.
