[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] AllanonMage:
I too am looking for advice on what ROM to use. I've tried a few and they've all had broken crap... like obviously broken crap that should have been in the OP and used to be back in the day. Would have saved me some time if I knew beforehand. Things like Wifi, GPS, OpenVPN....

Negativity aside, I'm looking for:

* a daily driver ROM - good performance good battery life, but stability most importantly

* where all the radios work right out of the gate, or with a single easy to implement fix that works 300% of the time that's no later than the 2nd or 3rd message in the ROM thread

* I want to use the Pen, so I think that means it has to be a touch whiz ROM, right?

* VPN to work, specifically, OpenVPN. Seems that I might be better off sticking to Android 4.1 or older for this, to bypass the VPNService API I have been researching all day today

* Bloat removed, or removeable

I really like this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2121063 but I can't get OpenVPN working :( or any concrete info on what's going on or how to fix it, so I think I'm going to have to find a new ROM.

I installed Whompasaurus yesterday, that seems to be a favorite here, I might try it for more than a few hours, or try Jelly Bomb http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1957773 or the Swamp monster by team Venum http://www.teamvenum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=768

I like the look of this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2266079 but I'm pretty sure it will have the same VPN problem since it's based ont he same ROM I'm using now.

This, of course, is not specific to our devices. Just curious if anyone else in the community has discovered a way of doing this. Beyond app-control (closing apps not in use, so they aren't staying in memory), I know Google services, most notably having "Now" enabled, are HOGS beyond all purpose and reason. I used to leave it off most of the time, but that temptation to have that everything-at-my-fingertips feeling tends to get the best of me. I now carry around a spare battery and switch halfway through my day at work. Yes, that's after about 5 hours of use. Sad, but true. But I digress...

- connmgr (AppRunAfterTimeChange and AppRunAtRs232Detect)

- PMNotify (AppRunAfterWakeup)

- Replog (AppRunAtRs232Detect)

Personally, I don't think ActiveSyn needs notification queue to be active. I think, if you were to try starting the active sync manually, and select Connect , you should still be able to ActiveSync. Just the automated one may not work if you have deleted them from the queue.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] elrigolo:
I think so, but when i launch repllog.exe or activesync manually, no sync was possible.

I need a program that talked to the CEDB to write the AppRunAfterRndisFnDetected notification.

I don't beleave that removing a simple hardware notification can be unsolve. The last chance is a cold reset, but i don't want to lost everything

[Sprint LG Optimus G] inklein:
Hi everyone!

So I bought a LG LS970 with a known issue, two of the lights on the bottom wouldn't come on. It wasn't a big deal to me but that part did eventually die, it stopped recognizing that it the USB was plugged in and so I replaced the mic flex and usb charging piece. After replacing it everything worked great except for the microphone. It works fine when I switch to speakerphone or headset but they can't hear me if I don't.

So I walked around for a few weeks looking like a tool talking on speakerphone everywhere. I ordered a second mic flex part and replaced it, booted up and once again everything works great except the microphone. Same issue.

Can anyone help me figure out what I should be looking for to get the microphone working normally again? I did a factory reset yesterday thinking maybe it was a software issue but that didn't help anything.

Thanks!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] aawshads:
Ok, started a new post so that I can put everything in one place. Dev's please feel free to delete other one.

I have one of the first gs4's, it was rooted with TWRP installed. I was running Liquidsmooth rom when I founf the GPS to not be functional.

I trying flashing some different modems, none of them fixed that. (Mk2, Nb1)

Tried multiple different ROMS, also did not fix the problem. Ended up CM 11, liked the rom so I left it on. Everything working fine.

This morning I rebooted the phone and it hung on the SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 screen. Won't go past it. Booted into recovery. Tried to restore a backup, but after it too hung at SGS4 screen. Went back in, reflashed, wiped, still stuck.

Tried flashing the uvamdl.tar in odin, and that failed every time saying secure check fail SB12 on the phone.

Went back to playing with TWRP, because I am stuck. Found that if If I do a full wipe, including data (where you have to type yes), then flash CM11 I can get it to boot into the phone, but only once. If I reboot, it hangs again, and I have to go in, wipe, and start all over.

Here is what is weird, it only works with CM11, not any other ROM.

Obviously I can't format every time I want to reboot the phone, so I am looking for a way to get this back to normal.

attached current specs with screenshot

I am using a win 8.1 laptop right now, but when I get home I would have access to a windows 7 machine.

I am currently traveling and desperately need the phone, so any help you could offer would be most appreciated.

There was a bug a while back where CM11 would hang sometimes on reboots, but you could always just reboot a couple more times and get it to boot. Why are you having to reboot? Just get CM on there, get it booted, and leave it be until you get back. You could try a newer nightly, but I'm not sure it would fix your problem.

Your android version 4.4.2. It appears you are leaving some information out of your post. If you have an AT&T phone you must be using Safestrap? MF3, MK2, etc.. can only use Safestrap as a recovery. I am also assuming your baseband...NB1 is due to the modem flashing, but that really won't make a difference because CMxx will not run on Safestrap. Your best option now is to Odin back to your original firmware version, re-install Safestrap, and stick with the compatible TW ROMs listed in the safestrap thread. If you don't understand what I am saying you will need to search and read about it all. You really should have known all of this before attempting to do anything to your phone. Good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RockRatt:
I would venture that he still has MDB or MDL bootloader as to HOW and WHY he can run CM11.

To OP I also would suggest flashing the STOCK firmware that MATCHES what bootloader you have and start fresh. Just MAKE SURE to reinstall TWRP immediately, then flash CM11 or whatever ROM you want. This IS ASSUMING you still have the MDB or MDL bootloaders.

To check/verify which bootloader you have installed.

1. Download Terminal Emulator

2. Open Terminal Emulator app and hit OKAY to give it Root Rights.

3. Close Terminal Emulator

4. Re-Open Terminal Emulator and type "su" Enter (WITHOUT THE QUOTATION MARKS)

5. Type "getprop to.bootloader" (WITHOUT the quotation marks).

6. See the screenshot where mine shows I337---MDB as that is where your phone will show which bootloader you have installed.

I am not positive as I haven't flashed any aosp based Roms, I am still on MDB bootloaders as well. So far never needed to flash the MDL bootloaders though for any Roms I have run. It is possible that CM needs the MDL bootloader though.

Yeah Rock, I forget--too many roms that I flash. I do remember a dev saying that you must be on mdl for something. But, it was way back early on. I did a lot of CM when I started flashing years ago. But, started with mostly TW when I got the s4. So, seems it would have been TW. My "old" brain don't remember as good as it use too--;) Oh well, hope the OP gets it sorted--:)

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] tcrimsonk:
Hi all,

I suppose I'm looking for advice on diagnosing the source of my problem, more than asking you to identify the problem specifically.

I'm running CM-11 with the latest nightly. (There's not much point in my pulling up the specific version number, as this problem has been persistent throughout many Nightly and Stable deployments.)

After a reboot, my phone will behave normally for a while, then start behaving very badly. In the past two hours, I've lost 70% of my battery life, while my phone was sitting next to me idle. The phone is very warm to the touch. I have no idea what it's been thinking about.

(This is with LTE off, Wifi on and connected, and a very 3G strong signal because I have a Sprint Airave sitting ten feet away from me. I also have Bluetooth turned on and paired to a laptop, though it isn't doing anything at the moment.)

Often when I receive an incoming call, the phone will ring, but will have so much lag, that the call drops to voicemail before the PQ gets around to displaying the incoming call dialogue and Answer button.

Similarly, when I finish a call, and take the phone away from my head, the screen often won't wake up, thus making it impossible to hang up the call.

Chrome has been crashing. So have various android processes. Maps (Navigation) has been crashing intermittently, which is frustrating when I've missed a turn because I was driving and waiting to hear the next voice direction.

I'm also having trouble keeping my external SD card mounted. I'll occasionally open my podcasting app (DogCatcher) only to be told that it doesn't have any podcasts to play. When I open ES File Explorer, I find that my external storage is unavailable. There's no error indicating that it was unmounted; it's simply not there. Manually ejecting the card and re-inserting causes it to mount, and work fine for a few days, until I discover it missing again.

(Dogcatcher is set to only download episodes when connected to power and wifi.)

This is getting frustrating. (As all of my Android devices eventually become) and I need help figuring out what my phone is hung up on at any given time. Is there a reliable Task Manager/Resource Monitor style app that I should be using? Anything else I can do?

Sorry for the long post; I've been putting up with it for a while hoping that the next CM-11 release will somehow solve the problem.

Thanks for your help.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Have you tried a clean flash lately?

Have you checked which app is keeping your phone awake? WakeLockDetector is a great app to check to see what is killing your battery. Obviously the built-in battery graph tool can be useful as well, but doesn't necessarily show you what is the cause.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] tcrimsonk:
It HAS been a while since I've done a clean flash. I'd be happy to try that, but I'd rather figure out if a specific app is causing the problem, so I know not to install it again. I hadn't heard about WakeLockDetector; that sounds like a great start. Thanks.

Pure AOSP (like Nexus roms ) are généraly more stable than CM roms ..."in théory" .

And it will be perfect for users who want the

on parameters, a pure google experience (like stock ) ...and a good "clean" base ( without "frills" ) for eventualy to personalize oneself for some people .

And for some people who like Touchwiz :add very goods Samsung Touchwiz theme + launcher will be great ! ==> it fully replace stock rom!

It's sure that when stock KK will be released for S4 mini by Samsung, with the code-source ( scheduled in May 2014...according to the "good" rumors enought reliable ) ==> a pure AOSP build will be the best choise for our phone ( lighten,performance and stability ) ....with a very good Customised Kernel for better phone ( a strong battery save ,without decreasing performance )

As far as i'm concerned ,i personaly wait this way for the future of my phone ! :p

Otherwise ,there are stable CM11 ... but cyanogenmod have done many additional features on her rom .
