[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] qqq1:
My phone has root, S-off, and I just updated it with the latest radio from Captain_Throwback (3.17.651.4). Right after doing that I flashed a new rom. I don't do many phone calls but after a couple days I realized people could hardly hear me. I restored the backup I had done before switching roms but I have the same issue there now. I'm guessing the problem came up from the radio update. If I yell the mic picks it up and passes it along. If I turn on speaker phone or plug in headphones the mic works perfect. Any idea on this one?

*I figured out this is the noise cancellation feature not working correctly. I blocked off the mic at the top and it works just fine. I thought it was strange that it was feeding my voice back to me, that's why. Any thoughts on disabling the noise cancellation? I took a quick look but didn't see any help.

**Got tired of waiting for help so I ran the 4.3 RUU. Working just fine now.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
Is there a tool or way to test the Nexus 5 sdcard memory?

For the last six months I've had problems with my rooted Nexus 5 (stock kitkat) suddenly running very slow. After a lot of time trying to figure out why, I determined the following.

1. Slowdown happens when an app is writing something to the sdcard.

2. Is not a particular app. Can be any app.

3. When it happens all 4 CPU cores are running close to full blast.

4. Battery usage shows "android os" is 50% of the usage.

5. Task killers do not solve the problem.

6. Reboot restores things to normal for a while.

So I now wonder if there's something wrong with the built in memory but don't know how to test it.

Is there a way to test the Nexus 5 message? It is very frustrating to talk 2-3 pictures and then have the 4th one make everything grind to a stop. Right now, typing this is a pain because every letter takes its time to appear. I know rebooting will solve it but I should not have to.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
sounds like you get a process(es) that get "stuck". also, when this happens, have you ever checked if your google stuff is syncing or " stuck"? sometimes badly written apps can cause this to happen as well.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
I think you are right but I don't know how to find the faulty process. I "think" I first noticed it after the google camera update, but I used settings /apps/ to uninstall the camera update without improvement. I think camera showed the problem because it has to save the image to memory sdcard.

I don't sync and have sync turned off everywhere and on all apps. Sometimes Google play shows up as the prominent battery user even though I don't have it update apps automatically. But it is primarily android os that is the bad guy.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
One of the things I had tried when the problem first started was to restore an earlier nandroid backup, but the problem continued, so I restored the most recent nandroid I had done before the earlier restore.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
Recent screenshot.

I was on the browser and Tapatalk for a while. But not on play store.

Not frozen now when taking this screenshot.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
You need to get gsam, or BBS or wakelock detector and see what one of those says. The stock battery screen is pretty much useless to find a battery problem.

But I'm guessing all your issues are tired to one bad app as said above.

Get a battery app I suggested, run a full charge down with it running.... And comb thru all of it and see if anything pops out.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
I already did that. I have gsam and wakelock detector installed but my knowledge of Android is very limited and they have not helped me so far except to confirm I have a problem. I wonder if there is a way to see the dates I installed various apps. That way I could uninstall in the order they were installed.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
Here are various screenshots. The list of active processes goes down several pages.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
My guess... It's an app that hadn't been updated since kit kat has been out, and it's spamming location services.

Just a guess.

Check in gsam for times waking device, held awake time and kernel wakelock. (You need gsam root companion from play store installed as well.). These are all found in gsam app screen by clicking the drop down at the top. See if anything looks bad on any of those.

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:17 PM ----------

Oh, and obviously, whatever tick tick is, is killing your battery. If it accesses location.... that's my bet for the culprit.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
Thank you all for the advice. Obviously I've tried various things. TickTick is a todo list app. Quite nice actually. Anyway I had suspected it might be a problem and have uninstalled it (several times) with no improvement.

Finally, I seem to be making some headway. Don't know which of these two did it (if the improvement lasts.....).

1. There were 3-4 apps I had avoided updating because I didn't like the updated versions (maps, Hangouts which I don't use, Firefox, etc). So I now gave up and clicked on "update all".

2. I disabled the module gravitybox and rebooted.

So far things have returned to normal. My CPU cores are back to low levels.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed. If things continue well after a while I will reactivate gravitybox. I'm holding my breath!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
After a full 15 minutes of normal behavior (unbelievable!), I took my courage in hand, reactivated gravitybox. Used my usual apps without the previous freezing recurring (so far). If this continues - and it seems to - it might suggest you don't update GAPPS (I think it was Hangouts) only at your peril.

Such a difference having an uncrippled phone!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
After a while the slowdowns returned. Any suggestions?
[Sprint LG G2] androidchyk24:
I hate hate hate sprint spark. Is there anyway i can go back to the regular network on kitkat. Please help ...i used to get 4g all the time and i can be in an open area and dont recieve and ounce of 4g now Ridiculous
[Sprint LG G2] geeksmurf:
Turning Bands 26 and 41 off via ##DATA# helped when I was having troubles.

You will need your MSL
[Sprint LG G2] HeckNoTechnO:
Same for me disable those bands and your good. Type in ##data# and choose LTE and disable bands.
[Sprint LG G2] that_guy_right_there:
Has anybody tried to disable bands before, same issue here, no ounce of lte unless i update PRL/profile which only last a few mins.
[Sprint LG G2] beezar:
All I can say is be patient. I had the same issue for a couple of months where I had to cycle airplane mode (or update PRL) to get LTE then promptly lose it. Disabling bands 41 and 26 helped. But after those two months, LTE works great most of the time without doing any of this.

Sprint is likely working on towers in your area.
[Sprint LG G2] thelastemperor24:
Sprint has been "working on towers" in my area for over a year. Every time I go into the Sprint stores to ask when LTE will be here its always the same answer: 'Well they are actually working on upgrading the towers right now, so if you are experiencing issues with data connectivity or slow speeds thats probably why. They expect to have LTE fully up and running in 1-2 months'. And as of today, still no LTE. And 3G speeds that are so slow it wont even register on a speed test.

http://newsroom.sprint.com/news-releases/sprint-celebrates-americas-newest-network-with-a-satisfaction-guarantee-offering-wireless-users-a-30-day-riskfree-trial.htm

Click on the link and read the section about 8T8R radios. So basically before Sprint brings LTE to all of its customers they started introducing Spark in select areas. Then also before completing their LTE rollout they will be upgrading the Spark towers. Even after LTE is installed it consistently tests the slowest of all 4 major carriers. And as more people buy phones that are LTE/Spark compatible, it will only get worse.

So yes it is good to be patient. But Sprint's upgrades and improvements are very slow coming so don't hold your breath.
[Sprint LG G2] Strainc:
I like it

Lets me know how network is going
[Sprint LG G2] ChicTek:
Freaking hate Spark. Glad to find this thread... I disabled the two bands and it's MUCH snappier now... Is there any reason I will need to re-enable these bands?
[Sprint LG G2] jkcarp94:
You'll want to reenable those bands unless you want a device that only works on 1/3 of the spectrum that Sprint has in the market. I can see disabling those bands during the upgrade process if you are having difficulty but with a finished product, I can't think of a single reason why you would ever want to disable those bands.
[Sprint LG G2] JBTY:
This is ridiculous for me i have only 3g and spotty voice conection ect keeps losing signal, meanwhile my old galaxy note 2 is on lte like a champ. Im going to try switching radios to see if i can make it any better.
[Sprint LG G2] nelsonalexander:
Galaxy Prevail Lte

I have a galaxy prevail lte on boost, and I wanna disable the spark bands, when I dial ##3282# and tap lte it doesn't do anything no matter how many times I tap it. Someone please help?
[Sprint LG G2] Deleted member 5154195:
Sorry, this thread is for the LG G2 LS980...
[Sprint LG G2] nelsonalexander:
I'm sorry.

I'm sorry but is it really that serious? My question was completely relatable to the topic...
[Sprint LG G2] Deleted member 5154195:
Yeah it's serious, your phone may have a different behavior than the LS980 due to the service provider unique tweak to stock android on your phone. Once the LS980 hidden menus are unlocked using the SPC code, the bands toggle no problem. Maybe that could be your issue, if it's not, that's why I suggested to find a thread related to your phone. Good luck!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmxl:
Do you guys know of any (notification) toggle to quickly disable/enable lockscreen? In the notification panel Android unfortunately doesn't seem to have such a toggle build in. With the previous build, Jelly Bean, some widgets from the Play Store seemed to work, but not anymore.

And perhaps someone knows a good app/mod to put back shortcuts on the lockscreen itself as well?

Thanks in advance!

Dennis
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmxl:
Anyone?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmxl:
Really no one else is having the same needs for a lockscreen toggle in KitKat?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmxl:
Thanks for your reply!

I would like to stick with my ROM though, do you happen to know what kind of mod it is? And the ROM you're using, seems not 4.4.2...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vaibhav Chauhan:
its lidroid toggles

and i'm using 4.0.4
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmxl:
Is it available in the Play Store? Can't seem to find it, only other apps of Lidroid.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmxl:
Thanks. But it seems a bit of a hassle for a lockscreen toggle widget. It comes bundled with a lot of mods... So it seems...

I really appreciate your help, but I'm hoping to find something more simple/less invasive...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vaibhav Chauhan:
if you don't like the icons of that statusbar mod than decompile the systemui and change the icons with yours

if you can't find mod than i have already give you the name 25 toggle mod
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmxl:
Hi. It's not that I'm bothered by the icons. It's just seems to come with a whole lot of other mods, as far as I can see. Or am I missing something?

Nothing personal, but I wonder why I seem to be one of the few who is looking for such a toggle :). It seems such an obvious need? Haha.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meatboy371:
Try xposed and gravitybox module.

Enviado de meu Nexus 4 usando Tapatalk
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmxl:
Thanks very much, but what does it exactly do? Regarding the lockscreen, the developer says a few things:

- Lockscreen targets

- Lockscreen tweaks, regarding theming.

- Lockscreen rotation

It does not say anything about a "toggle" to switch it easily on or off. It also needs a framework to be installed, and a lot of other tweaks/mods come with the module, that I'm not sure I would like...Plus, I read in that forum, that the lockscreen features are not working.

Anyway, it's 2014, there's not any solution anymore to just have a widget or something for it? Like with previous android versions?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meatboy371:
Gravitybox will allow you to add/organize/customize the quicksettings tiles (like the lidroid from the other post), including a lockscreen toggle. There's lots of other tweaks too, but you don't need to use them if don't want. And yes, you'll need to install xposed framework, but it's easy, there's and app for it (xposed installer). If you're interested, search for xposed or gravitybox threads.

But you just want a homescreen widget/toggle, right? Google "no lock widget".
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmxl:
Thanks. I just generally just don't like installing all kinds of extras, even if I don't use them. A policy that kept my hardware running very smooth, where others suffer from sluggishness.

I am more looking for a widget then, yes. The one you mentioned unfortunately doesn't seem to work... I'll keep looking :).

Whats MultiROM

Multirom is a ROM manager created by Tasssadar with the ability to load multiple ROMs without the need to remove your older one, giving you the ability to test/run multiple ROMs at once, you can also restore TWRP backup as Secondary ROMs allowing you to look at your backup to choose the right one, or maybe just have 2,3,4,5,6 working OS on your phone... just because it's cool.​

Warning!

It _is_ dangerous. This whole thing is basically one giant hack.

I Nuked my SDCard twice in porting this tool over, I'm not entirely sure what caused it, but I reverted few changes which might have been the reason, so I hope it wont happen again.

Still, I'll highly recommend you make backups and keep them on your computer. Always.

I've been using this for 2 weeks now with no serious problems, but just as well, don't be blaming me if anything goes wrong.

keep the "i cant get this to work" messages out of my PM i wont bother replying to them,

as almost anyone on this thread can help you.

you have a problem, read the main OP and if you still cant get it to work... post your problem here...

and be specific... "this is not working" will get you nowhere and no answers.

Flash Multirom-20141228-v30-UNOFFICIAL-endeavoru.zip normally trough recovery.

Flash Multirom-20150430-v32-UNOFFICIAL-endeavoru.zip normally trough recovery (New Layout ONLY).

Reboot

To Fix Write To SDCard issue(flash on secondary ROM only):Not Needed with New Layout

Flash UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.40.zip(possible only needed on Lollipop, if no, no harm in switching to SuperSU)

Flash SDFix.zip

To Remove ROMs:

Reboot Into MultiROM

Amazing you did it..well done mate glad you are still with us on our dated hox.
[HTC One X] lalit387:
Great!!! Eager to try but its very late night here :o

Also waiting for your Kernel
[HTC One X] 3498BoyZ:
Wow your are just great ...... Will Test it if i have enough time.

Maybe you get tomorrow a pm

Gesendet von meinem HTC One X mit Tapatalk
[HTC One X] Thunder07:
It'll be better if i answer this here,

during boot, after flashing MultiROM, MultiROM starts and prompts you to choose what to boot,

Internal (Main ROM), TWRP or other ROMs you installed.

if you want to change kernel of a secondary ROM,

You boot TWRP -->Advance --> MultiROM --> Select ROM --> Remove boot.img

Select ROM --> Add boot.img, then you get to select the kernel you want.

To Flash the Zips/Modules

TWRP -->Advance --> MultiROM --> Select ROM --> Flash Zip

Ill update the OP with these now.
[HTC One X] lalit387:
I have a silly question do I have to reflash my current Rom or it will be updated in Boot List Automatically after following above instructions.
[HTC One X] Thunder07:
The main ROM will remain untouched..

but you'll need to know how KL Zeus works to boot it.
[HTC One X] ar4er:
Great! I do not have important data in the internal storage, so I can test it.
[HTC One X] Thant:
[MENTION=618483]Thunder07[/MENTION] I want to test it too:p
[HTC One X] Thunder07:
The Current structure of a secondary rom is...

/system 1.25GB

/data 1GB

/cache 436MB

It's a waste having this big of /system partition and small of /data partition...

So i need to know the size of the biggest bloatware ROM so i can shrink the /system partition to it.
[HTC One X] ljjehl:
It seems that the Sense based Roms do have a massive system partition. Skydragon 2.0, for example, has system at 922MB in zipped format.
[HTC One X] Thunder07:
jeez... 1GB it is then :/
[HTC One X] humzaahmed155:
Though people should keep the really big ROMs like Sense as the 1st OS. It only seems logical enough. By the way, does running a ROM on the internal sdcard slow down the OS at all? I know external sdcards have this issue for sure on other devices.
[HTC One X] Thant:
I am not complaining for me work perfect I have for main ROM SENSE5 LonelyX and for second SlimKat5.2a and for third CM11 nightly from 25.05.2014 and I don't see lags or something else now my phone work on CM11 for few days after this I think to start SlimKat for few days Main Rom is ok
[HTC One X] cappuccina:
You've made me think of trying sense again. :D

I've only tried aosp for a long time now.

But with multirom I might flash a sense rom again. Would be great to be able to use sense camera for example while running carbon as main rom. :p

I'm on carbon (main rom) and slimkat (second rom) and they both work fine and smooth.

Maybe only the start up needs a little longer than usual but once it's booted it works fine.

sent from my carbonated Kitty Kat
[HTC One X] Thant:
just now deleted CM11 to many bug for me I missed important notification. The phone beep but I don't see nothing on the screen. Now for this week I think to test SlimKat to see how it works I hope to be stable and don't miss any inportant notification. Whole day I thik on the question why today I have too many free hours and in the end of the day when start main rom I understand why:D:eek:
[HTC One X] humzaahmed155:
So I flashed the MultiROM zip through the Aroma installer, when I boot into MultiROM and try to add a secondary ROM, it installs but i can't do much with it after, it doesn't boot either, as for my primary ROM, this goes missing until I actually boot into recovery and reinstall the ROM, any ideas? Or am I supposed to use the Aroma KL Flasher for every boot image? Though it doesn't work because it only asks for a standalone image, not a modules folder.

I flashed the kernel modules through the MultiROM section but everything fails aswell, I know I'm doing something wrong though.
[HTC One X] ljjehl:
When I add a secondary Rom I also go into the advanced/Multirom/ list and select the Rom I installed. I then remove boot.img, then go back and install boot.img (the boot.img I extracted from Rom), go to the directory I saved that to and it's done. Should boot after that.

[MENTION=618483]Thunder07[/MENTION],

My current issue seems to be a cache issue. I seem to have to fastboot cache a lot more than I like, otherwise I can't always get to TWRP. Reboot (or from poweroff) more often than not seems to get me only the internal Rom and not the MultiRom startup. I was hoping a wipe cache from device would be sufficient, but no luck.
[HTC One X] teemo:
EDIT: Okay, thats not obvious. I need to STOP Zeus in order to get to the interface.

BTW I can hardly read the initial Zeus screen, it is very dark.

Hi - If i do THIS:

To Install MultiROM:

1 Flash Zeus Boot.img

3 Flash Multirom-20150211-v31-UNOFFICIAL-endeavoru.zip normally trough recovery (New Layout ONLY).

4 Reboot

... my next step should be:

Reboot Into MultiROM

Boot Into TWRP --> Advanced -- > MultiROM --> Add ROM

...but there is no MultiROM

So I have:

Start point SlimLP-BiG installed. TWRP2.8.5.0(New Layout)

then I

fastboot: flashed Zeus(big)

recovery: flashed MultiRom

recovery: flashed aroma as well

reboot will boot zeus and bounce to TWRP2.8.5.0

Now, where is MultiROM :D :confused::confused:
[HTC One X] Thunder07:
ummm...

can you check and make sure multirom was installed correctly to /sdcard/multirom/

and since you rebooted back to TWRP2.8.5.0 <--- your build

that means aroma failed as well, so can you check /sdcard/ZeusKL/ which should contain zImage initrd.img kernel ramdisk

Zeus only kicks in after MR, if MR doesn't exist, it will skip to zeus..

also once you're in the recovery you can read zeus output like this

"adb shell cat /proc/last_msg | grep zinit"

as for the dark screen.. its bright on my screen, but ill adjust the setting to make it brighter next time.

grrr.. i swear it was working earlier...

I'll have a look soon and report back.

no more than 10mins, wait for next Zeus release, I think the current faux/alex one refuse to boot an LP kernel, which is causing this.
[HTC One X] teemo:
Cool. Im all good now - SlimLP is booting. Main problem was that I did not notice the boot message as it is way to dark. Found the settings now and made it light up :)

Is it normal that installing ROM from backup will not boot (I guess not) ?

It seems that - at least my - kernels for big-slim and big-cm does not boot when using the twrp backup images. Installing ROM from zip fixed that. I have seen this as well when flashing the twrp-backuped boot-image from fastboot.

Thanks for MultiBoot & KL.
[HTC One X] Thunder07:
did MultiROM start as well?

Its not normal, but i know that feature is broken in my build,

Probably because I had to hack it to work with the HOX originally, now i have to revert the changes,

since the layout is 'fixed'.
[HTC One X] modest.young:
[MENTION=698346]teemo[/MENTION], you have new build of TWRP ?? And we don't have it? ;)
[HTC One X] teemo:
Yes MultiROM is perfect.

Broken? Well that might explain that it never finished "stating apps". Or is that the missing data people talk about, the log show mount errors. Will look more later.

lol

Still testing. But I see no difference.
[HTC One X] Thunder07:
They only difference is scaling support and since our device is of a correct/standard ratio, it doesnt make use of it, AKA no difference.

ummm... the restore function seems like something I haven’t touched, so not exactly sure what is at faults here :/
