[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] pboy207:
Hi I'm a noob here. Everything was working perfectly until today. My screen remains dark after going into sleep mode. I've tried to do a soft reset, and it seems fine when it first turns on. But after a minute of inactivity, it goes into sleep mode and whenever I tap the screen or hit the top power button, it awakens but the screen is very dark. I'm have no idea what happened. Hopefully someone can help. I have an 8125 with the following installed:

2.25 Rom (leaked version)

2.25 Radio

SPB Pocket 3.1

SPB Time 2.0

MS VoiceCommand 1.5

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Newcron:
I'm unfamiliar with Samsung phones (never had one), and I'm looking at getting a used/mint Galaxy S 4 for my wife. Here are the requirements:

1. SIM unlocked. I need to be able to use it on AT&T and T-Mobile networks in the US, and also other international carriers as need be when traveling, without a problem.

2. I need to have root access. Some apps that need to be installed on this phone requires root. It's not necessary to have the capability to flash custom ROM, etc. so stock ROM (or any ROM, for that matter, as long as it's stable) is fine. I just need root.

3. It has to have at least 4.3, or if possible 4.4.2. OTA capability for further update (if there will be any) is a good bonus but not required.

I likely won't be modifying this phone (flashing ROM/mods/etc.) after I set it up the first time. I'll set it up, give it to her, and forget about it.

So, which version of GS4 should I look for in ebay/swappa (and if there are any firmware requirements for easy rooting)? I'm going to be using it almost solely on a GSM-based network (currently a T-Mobile MVNO, but may switch to an AT&T MVNO soon) so AT&T version seems like an obvious choice, but I've heard that this model is a pain to SIM unlock (is it true?), while Verizon version is factory unlocked completely out of the box, and will work without a problem on AT&T or T-Mobile (and obviously overseas as well).

Can anyone give me any suggestion?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Newcron:
:laugh:

Yeah I deserve that. I basically set myself up to get this answer. This is what I get for not being clear enough from the get go. Doh.

Obviously the international unlocked version is the most ideal, because there's no potential for headaches as I explained above. I of course knew this.

And yes, there are several of them available at Swappa, but they are all (understandably) much more expensive (some more than 150%) compared to the local version.

So, I guess my real question is whether I should get AT&T, T-Mobile, or Verizon version for my purposes above.

I also just examined the title of this subforum and realized that I may not be asking this on the right place. So, sorry about that. I'll switch over to the correct forum and ask this again. Thanks for answering!

Hi,

Since I didn't find a thread for The New PadFone Infinity (A86) aka PadFone Infinity 2, decided to create this thread.

Hopefully this top device gets noticed by developers.
[Android General] ixtlan007:
Any MOD for audio? Low handset speaker volume?

As you might noticed, the speaker volume (notifications, ringtones, etc.) of NPFI handset is pretty low even when all volume sliders are maxed out and audio wizard is set to "Music".

I have a rooted device and installed Alsa Mixer from Play Store and tweaked the parameter "RX7 Digital Volume" from within the app. Changed default value of 85 to 100 and was pleased to get a noticeably louder speaker volume. Problem is that the value resets almost instantly and volume level gets back to its default value. Probably because Alsa Mixer installs its own audio driver (alsa amixer) which uses a separate system for assigning values and there is a protection system in place by Asus I think.

I also played with parameters in files below (residing in /system/etc/snd_soc_msm) - tweaked the RX7, RX1, RX2, etc...

snd_soc_msm_Taiko

snd_soc_apq_Taiko_DB

snd_soc_msm_Taiko_CDP

snd_soc_msm_Taiko_Fluid

snd_soc_msm_Taiko_Liquid

saved and reboot, but it didn't make a difference. So anyone has any idea to share? :confused:

P. S. As far as I know the audio engine for NPFI is designed by Wave and is called MaxxAudio, Is it possible that it has something to do with that?
[Android General] AlexHer:
Thank you for making much needed forum.

It does. I gave it a try, but the settings menu is all wonky for me. Like, it will open other settings sections instead of what I pressed, and then FC when I back out. I wonder if it's a fluke with the menu, because on echo's ROM you can pick the S5 style settings menu and it did the same thing.

I've wiped multiple times in twrp 2.6.3.3 and done it three four times before flashing a ROM through Odin again. I even went as far as doing an advanced wipe and wiped everything including the system. Buy my problem I'm having is I'm a little confused as to why when I flash a ROM with Odin, I keep getting the same wallpaper I had with that firmware. I didn't even have that wallpaper before I started this from stock. Its the p600ztubnb1_p600zztbnb1_home.tar.md5 file. Its like my tablet just remembers what wallpaper I had with that firmware. Even though I wiped everything. I even took my SD card out before wiping. Any ideas? Or am I a worry wart?

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Itchiee:
Just trying to be to the point. yeah maybe Google is backing up and restoring it every time you reset I don't know just an option. Unless the recovery is not really resetting the tablet

Is the OP using Samsung backup/restore services?

Most likely they'll be happy to help you test your phone with one of their SIMs (hoping to get a new customer).

Hello there!

My problem is rather aesthetic, but id like to sort it out.

When i had a jelly bean installed on my n9005 and used an "animated wallpaper" (Phase beam) on my Lockscreen i had a nice light effect while hovering my finger above the screen, followed by a nice sound while unlocking.

The funny part is that it dissapeared after update to 4.4.2. and i get that ugly white padlock with a white circle to mess with, like on the stock android .

(but only on the animated wallpaper, while on static one i can still use the ripple effect and ink effect if i like..)

(N9005XXUENB3_N9005OXXENB1_XEO to be exact)

is there a way to get that back? or maybe there is an option im missing out? (im having air functionality ON)

please help me if u can, as i loved the way it looked before, and i really want to get it back :fingers-crossed:

If it's just 9% then you have nothing to worry about. Our batteries doesn't like to run to 0%. If your level is between 10-20%, you should start thinking about charging.

I have been running CM 11 on my XT907. A 2/10/14 update installed and a day or so later the phone went into some really bizarre read only state. I can boot the phone, but it constantly crashes on gapp and acore processes, I can get into settings but do very little. ADB does not seem to be able to load, when I try to run things that need ADB the phone constantly goes online and offline. I can boot into fastboot and run RSDLite and Matt's utility. They both actually run like they are writing back the original images(no errors) but the phone reboots to CM11. I am running CWM 6.0.4.4, very little I can do here. Anything I try to flash runs but doesn't actually apply. I tried Moto WP Nomo and it just says what are you doing here, I am assuming because it isn't written for the 907. I am stuck at this point, phone has been a brick for a month. Can I just replace the internal SD card at this point...or take it out and format in my PC and start over?

Why me????? Why?????" Or something to that effect. While I appreciate the developer who wrote the app, the error checking messages he built into are ridiculous. I have read other posts on the utility who get cryptic messages from doing basic things like not running it out of the right working directory.
