First time poster!! :)

Bought this phone and received it the other day.

I can't get USB OTG working though. I downloaded OTG checker and it failed, saying it is not OTG enabled.

Anyone able to get it working??

Also, a little annoyance, has anyone noticed that there is:

1) No way to stop the virbrating when typing sms/ internet address/ search - basically any typing is haptic touch vibrations. I can't find how to turn this off

2) If an sms is received, the screen does not light up, no lights flash to say a message was received so unless I open the screen, I would never know an sms was received. Same goes for email.

Has anyone found a way around these issues?

Thanks

go to audio profiles

than click on general at right side with customizing

found system and disable vibrate on touch

is it now ok?
[Android General] irishproduce:
Hi digitalac,

No, I already unticked the box when I got the phone but it doesn;t change the problem.

I still have haptic vibrating when typing anywhere on the phone (Internet browser, email, sms etc)

Do you have this problem?

audio problem

thanks for this thread ,

I bought elephone p6s 2 weeks ago , it is amazing except 2 problems that make me unhappy with this phone . I wish you can solve these problems to me .

first , the audio volume is too low to hear , i set all audio setting to maximum but the volume still low . Even I can not hear any incoming calls as ringtone volume is too low I should make the speaker close to my ear to hear it , I tried many applications from play store to enhance volume butall are useless , I can not hear any mp3 file or video file when i play it , i tried many players like vlc and winamp and mobo player , all are useless . I google this problem and I found many people complain from this audio problem in many other phones which have android 4.3.1 , I bought elephone p6s with 4.2.2. but when I received it I found that it hase android 4.3.1. installed , I googled for ROM 4.2.2 but I did not found even in needrom.com , they publish a rom describing it as 4.2 but when I downloaded it and Flash it I found that it is the same 4.3.1 ROM ,Realy I am disappointed and I do not know How can I solve this horrible problem .

second , The camera . It supposed to be 8MP but i the quality is not so good , the quality is of 5 MP cameras .

[MENTION=5860145]irishproduce[/MENTION]

I have question for you. Unfortunately I installed the same rom as you from needrom, and after that I have sometime problem with charging phone on AC power (everything is OK if I charging with usb cable on notebook). And you?

And something I mean from the begining my ownership this phone.

When I turned off phone and click on power button only I can see logo, not begining booting and starting device. Then I must move battery from phone and back and after that when click on power button everything is OK. What about your phone?

About camera and picture quality, photos and videos are great at sunny day, but at home are not so much saturated colours.

[Android General] irishproduce:
Hi Drodem, regarding your sound issues, there is nothing wrong with the device, just on the chipset, they are rather low when finished at the factory.

You can amend these using MTK Engineering Tool from playstore - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.themonsterit.EngineerStarter&hl=en

Here is a guide to increase the sound. I changed mine and sound is perfect now. I didn't put them to the maximum because it is too loud.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] markbrudney:
hi

I use MemMaid and the running process that uses the most memory is "gwes.exe".

the problem is ,that the amount of memory it uses just keeps growing,rising on a daily basis :( .I've found that a soft reset brings it right down again :lol: ,but then it starts to rise once more :( .

Does anyone have a similar problem?

Is there any way of bringing down its memory use without soft reset?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] kchris:
same to me. 10MB was the size of it. killing it makes the device freeze :(
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cmonex:
don't kill gwes, it is a system process, stands for Graphics, Windowing and Events Subsystem.

i dunno why you get the memory leak, i don't. i always thought spb pocketplus is the culprit, but someone just claimed he had no leaks while using spb+. but give this a try if you happen to use it...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] harryk1372:
Same here and that is not just with gwes but with many other system files, but gwes is of course the biggest. Isn't this an issue with WM5?

I also use OxiosMemory and try to mitigate this by forcing the processes to release resources not in use, but that does not elimate this issue completely.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cmonex:
no, the explanation is not this simple. i run the same wm5 as you and i dont have this problem.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] harryk1372:
cmonex,

Can I ask you what apps you run? It might be the apps I am running that you do not run is causing the memory leak.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cmonex:
i leave these constantly running all the time:

magicbuttons

taskmgr v1.6 (from buzzdev)

uptime

also usually leave these running:

totalcommander

opera

messages (sms)

occasionally using:

iGO 2006

Netfront 3.3

PQZII

vijay's full terminal screen hack

ftpsrv

phm regedit

tre regedit

adobe acrobat

mobipocket

wmirc

softmaker textmaker (wow sucks why no real vga)

tcpmp 0.71

hope this helped :) what apps are you running?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] harryk1372:
Thanks for that. What I run is quite a few and some are same as yours. The biggest difference is that I run Wisbar Advance 2 and Wisbar Advance Desktop to skin the GUI.

The apps I am constantly running:

Wisbar Advance 2

Wisbar Advance Desktop

SEVEN (mobile push email)

ATOK (IME for Japanese language)

DefSIPChange (changes default SIP)

PQz

The apps I am running occasionally:

Backup and Restore

GSFinder

MemMaid

Oxios CloseApps

Oxios Hibernate

PHM RegEdit

JpegCapture

TCPMP

VeriChat

Warm Reboot

GB-SOFT Tweak

Pocket Tweak

I will have to check the ones I am constantly running to see if any of them is causing this problem but it could be the first two on the above list.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] markbrudney:
hi

I run:

contacts

calendar

comm manger

internet explorer

resco file explorer

MemMaid

games

These I run most of the time and I frequently have to switch them off in settings/system/memory in order to keep a reasonable amount of memory free

However gwes.exe never decreases

Can anyone see a link?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cmonex:
hummm i didnt list the builtin apps but what i use from them is contacts, comm manager, PIE (very rarely), messages (only for sms), word... (sometimes the other office stuff too) would use calendar too but i always forget to note my todos in it :P

+ and i forgot to list nPOP (for emails) and a screenshot maker (magic something)..

anyway what you run doesn't sound too bad, if you really use no today plugins.. i got no idea.. what ROM version do you run?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] ed.dark:
The growth is because it caches icons (start menu - programs - settings) to speed up the display. At least that's my best guess!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] markbrudney:
hi

rom version:1.30.107 wwe

I did a soft reset today and gwes.exe went down to 4.22MB

I then ran only the wifi (comm manager) and gwes rose to 4.35MB

I ran it again after switching it off in settings/system/memory and it rose to 4.78MB

when I switched it off again in settings/system/memory it came down to 4.56MB but its obviously where the leak is.,because I didn't run anything else.

the problem is how do I stop it?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] HogoZ:
Hi all there,

same problem with my german VPA IV (Vodafone) even after several ROM upgrades (Jasjar, qtec, new vodafone ger) no changes of this strange behavior

I really hope, there's anybody out there, who can help us with this annoying thing. :(
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] harryk1372:
This gwes.exe issue is experienced with WM2003SE as well. I found this in one of the threads in Windows Mobile Team Blog.

"With WM2003SE, I had issues like GWES.exe growing until I ran out of RAM. So, I purchased WM5, hoping the repurposed strata flash and new OS would resolve the issues."

You can also refer to below for gwes.exe in detail.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...ui5/html/wce50conshellanduserinterface146.asp

Someone was saying earlier in this thread that gwes.exe caches icons. That might be true but may not be just icons and that explains why gwes.exe grows. Or, it might be that some apps you are running are causing memory leak but that is not easy to spot on.

A workaround to this I use and can recommend to anyone having this problem is Oxios Memory 1.40. It's free! :D

http://www.oxios.com/memory/

One of its apps is Oxios Hibernate. WM_HIBERNATE is a window message that is generated by the Windows operating system and sent to an application when system resources are running low. All applications should get the message and handle it by attempting to release as many resources as possible by unloading processes, destroying windows, or freeing up as much local storage as possible without damaging the internal state of the system.

I normally run this whenever the free memory space gets low like down to 15MB before my device gets unstable. I normally gain quite a bit by reducing the sizes of gwes.exe and all other processes running are occupying and that I don't have to reboot my device everyday. Check the size of gwes.exe with MemMaid before and after you run this and you will notice how effective it is. :roll:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] markbrudney:
thanks harryk1372,

Oxios Memory 1.40 is great and I managed to release 3MB of memory.

However none of it came off gwes.exe.

Just a matter of interest ,how many times should I use Oxios Hibernate?

Every time I press it,I get some memory back.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] harryk1372:
Maybe that gwes.exe did not have any resource to release at the point you ran Oxios Hibernate and it was already close to the bare bones. Try running Oxios CloseApps as well as Oxios Hibernate. CloseApps closes processes running in the background and that releases the memory used by those.

You do get some memory back by running Hibernate multiple times but the actual amount you get back is very small after the first run although the dialogue may say it is like 2 to 3MB released every time. I am not sure why this is but I think it is no use running it multiple times. Just run it once or twice a day when you find that the free memory is low.

As I wrote in the earlier post, Oxios Memory is just a workaround I found. It does not eliminate the problem completely and the memory resources used by the processes running will never go down to the level of right after the reboot of the device. I experienced that gwes.exe gradually grows in several days to the point when I need to reboot my device even with running Hibernate from time to time. It's just that I don't need to reboot it like everyday. :(

hey i had the same problem that is mentioned here....

i was running spb pocket plus when i noticed this....

now with ilauncher and spb diary i have around 25 mb at start up and hardly if any memory leak....

with ilauncher alone i have around 27.5 mb

also some software have been updated like pocket informant webis mail..my experience with them shows me that they have next to no memory leak...

what i have noticed is that applications which are not designed for wm5 have terrible leak....case in point....girders which i a game with simple graphics leaves me with only 9 mb when i exit the app...while with skyforce 1.22 (wm5) the leak is hardly 100-200kb

This issue has been posted several areas, and most might not know which thread to look.

To get around the "Activating Mobile Data Service" problem while flashing AOSP roms while on the new format, simply flash the rom alone, then boot into Android without flashing Gapps. This will bypass the Welcome screen. Setup WiFi, if applicable. Then reboot into recovery and flash Gapps, your kernel, and any other mods you desire.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Oluromeo:
Wow... you say it just too easily... a tutorial or something more specific for people to learn. thanks...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
Ok...here are the exact steps.

In Android

1) Download your rom of choice.

2) Download Gapps, if you don't have it.

3) Reboot into recovery

3a) Use an app, such as Quick Reboot from the Play Store for easiest access

In Recovery

4) Perform a FULL WIPE.

4a) In TWRP, hit Wipe-->Advanced Wipe-->choose Dalvik Cache, Cache, Data, & System

4a.1) Swipe the bar on the bottom of the screen to complete the wipe.

4b) If you are coming from another AOSP rom, the Gapps will not be wiped through a simple Factory Reset...

4b.1) ...because the Gapps are installed to the System partition, and a Factory Reset only wipes Dalvik Cache, Cache, & Data

5) Go back to the home screen, and hit Install.

6) Navigate to the location of the rom zip file, and touch it to flash.

7) Swipe to flash it. Reboot to Android.

In Android (1st boot of new rom)

8) This will load up to the homescreen initially. Set up your WiFi network (if applicable).

8a) You will not be able to add any Google accounts because the Gapps package wasn't flashed.

9) Reboot back into recovery.

Back in Recovery

10) Navigate to the location of the Gapps zip file, and touch it to flash.

11) Swipe to flash it.

11a) Flash anything else of your choice, such as kernels and/or mods.

12a) Reboot to Android.

Back in Android

13) Profit.

[Google Chromecast] PoshCat1:
Hi,

I've just bought a Chromecast this week and plugged it into my amp via the HDMI.

I got the correct screen on my TV, but I couldn't connect using the app, or manually. It said 'No Chromecasts found on ***'

It is plugged into the mains, not USB.

We have an Orange Siemens SE572 router. It is not on the list of supported routers. I've played with the settings a little bit, but no joy.

I've also taken the Chromecast away from the TV and just plugged it into the mains to see if the flashing white light becomes solid as I assume that I won't be able to connect until it becomes solid?

Any suggestions please?

Cheers
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Flashing white light and either "Set me up" or "Reconnect me" on the TV means Chromecast is either not configured to connect to a wireless AP yet, or it cannot connect to the configured wireless AP.

In this mode, Chromecast becomes its own open wireless AP (with no access to anything else, obviously) broadcasting as Chromecast####. The device running the Chromecast app or accessing the manual setup then connects to the Chromecast#### network to configure Chromecast, providing the wireless AP SSID and credentials that it will eventually connect to.

Since you're getting "No Chromecasts found" it shouldn't have anything to do with your router, as the blinking white light means Chromecast isn't connected to your router anyway.

What device are you running the Chromecast app on? It automatically scans for nearby wireless networks named Chromecast#### but in some cases you may need to manually connect to the Chromecast#### network beforehand.
