[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mulhiny:
Hey all..I have a completely stock and fully updated Droid Maxx...today my messaging app started force closing upon every incoming picture mail or if I try to send one.

Anyone else experience this?

The only fix I came up with is using hangouts.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmoney:
I had this exact same issue.

Fixed it by wiping the app data/cache. Make sure to delete all your SMS threads as well.

I used the stock messaging app, and was able to backup all my texts with an app. Just had to make sure everything was wiped within the app before restoring.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mulhiny:
Hmmm...I did try wiping the data/cache but I'm not sure if I deleted the texts first...I'll give it another try..

Actually, I disabled the stock app and switched to Hangouts in the meantime. It's really not that bad, so if I can't fix the stock app I'll be OK. Just hate having an issue with a stock phone....
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmoney:
Deleting all the existing threads was key for me, just wiping the cache didn't fix the issue.

My guess is some MMS got corrupted and the app was no longer able to handle it.

I didn't try changing my primary app since I like stock and the Chrome plugin.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] new2and:
I have the Samsung Galaxy S3 with Wind Mobile. Recently Updated to 4.4.2 and rooted with Towel Root. Everything was good until TitaniumBu couldn't access the externalSD card.

I tried using a couple of xposed modules (Handle External Storage & then KitKat SD Card Full Access), but they didn't allow Titanium to access the SD card either.

So I tried the manual method of modifying platform.xml (also changed permissions on the modified file) but I have the same issue as some other people I've read about (bluetooth stopped working, whatsapp crashed, maps, youtube, play store, titanium backup, touchpal keyboard, web browsing all stopped working). Also when I connect my phone to my PC, the phone and the sd are shown as empty.

I tried copying back the original platform.xml that I had saved and still no luck.

I'm not worried about the titanium accessing the sd card right now. I'm just trying to get the apps and bluetooth working. Anybody have any other ideas?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Try ktoonsez' kt747 kernel.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] new2and:
Thanks

Thanks for the info Doc, but I'm not too confident flashing kernels (never done it) so I ended up wiping everything and starting from scratch. I installed? kitkat 4.2.2 and then rooted again with towelroot.

I then installed SD fix and TWRP, but the funny thing is that when I restarted my phone, I no longer had wifi.I tried a few things that I found in XDA and on other websites, but I couldn't get wifi back.

So then I redid everything again. Kit Kit & towel root, but no TWRP, no external sd fixes, and I am able to use my phone. The problem for me is that my apps have no access to the extSD and I can't do a back up without that access. I'm thinking that the extsd fixes that i have tried over the last few days mess something up with my phone. Or maybe towel root & the fixes are not good together? Maybe I should have used Root 66 like I used before?

I don't want to risk messing anything up right now, so I'm just going to wait around, and see if anyone else runs into my problems.

Thanks again.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Towelroot, or any other root method shouldn't have any effect on the actual operation of the device. What is happening is there are new seLinux security enhancements built in to kk. Apps can now only read/write to folders they create/own. If another app created the folder, or if it was created by the owning app before the new security was implemented, seLinux will not allow that app to use it. More and more people are having problems even after the platform.xml edit which makes me believe its got to be done before flashing, or a factory reset may be needed. Im not sure on that right now.

The platform.xml edit is only for the external sdcard btw. You have to disable seLinux to solve this on the internal one. (Looks like this may also be true for external now, but like I said, im not sure about that yet)

There's an app in the store, I think its called sdfix, or sdfixer or something similar (search seLinux mode changer) that people have had some success with, so try that first.

Alternatively, I can mod the stock kernel to disable seLinux there. (May do this today anyway).

It's perfectly fine if you're not comfortable flashing kernels, but its really nothing to be too worried over. A custom one like ktoonsez kt747, will flash and run normally, and you have the option to learn more if you like so you can configure it how you want.

If you have any specific concerns about it, feel free to ask us. But in the end its up to you if you still want to refrain from flashing one.

Another thing you can try is to rename the apps folders, then reinstall it and let it recreate them. Then copy the contents of the old into the new. Not totally sure it would work as I expect, but in theory it should.

Anyway, if nothing else, try that app I mentioned. And let us know how ut goes!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] new2and:
Thanks Again

Thanks again for your response.

I tried sdfix and thats when my wifi got messed up.

I've spent 2 days getting my phone almost back to where it was before, so I think I'll wait a few days/weeks before I mess with it again.

Thanks for the explanation, but sooner or later I think I will try the ktoonsez kt747.

I'll update here whenever I try something.

Thanks again. Your help is appreciated.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] new2and:
FYI Doc. I tried the updated KitKat SD Card Full Access (version 1.2) Xposed module that came out today. It worked, and now Titanium can back up to my external SD card. Finally.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Thanks for letting us know! I don't use xposed so wouldn't have known about it otherwise. Still, I am sorry you had so much trouble with all of this and that I couldn't help you better. Glad to hear you finally got it sorted out though!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] new2and:
Thanks Doc

No worries. I browse XDA a lot, and I see your answers, and they're always helpful. I appreciate all your help.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] egg:
Hi,

i'm sorry but I'm confused by the various threads on this site...

What is the best way to increase ringtone volume on o2 XDA NEO? It's far to low (at max), and I often miss calls when I'm outside.

So, how can I make it as loud as my old nokia 7610?

Thanks!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Barnd83:
Well, got my Neo two days ago - had to solve the same problem on my old Siemens SX1

i'm using Goldwave Studio to raise ringtone volume

get Goldwave here: (Evaluation Version is free of charge, supports wma, mp3, midi, wav, ogg and even more)

http://www.goldwave.com/

load file -> go to: [Effect] -> [Volume] - > [Change Volume] Presets: Double

and then save as .mp3 using lame codec

http://www.netzwelt.de/software-download/4850-lame-mp3-encoder.html

btw i convert the ringtone file to 64k mono (needs less memory)

//edit

xda neo supports .wma ringtones too, so save as .wma file

just gave it a try, used WMA 9.1, 48kbps, 44khz, mono CBR and its decent for me (Track Length: 2:30 , file size about 1MB)

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sudo77:
So I downgraded from 4.3 to 4.1.2. Everything works normal except IMEI which is and incorrect number. I backup my efs partition with my modem and restored it, and yet, it still fails to change to the correct number.

So I re-flashed stock 4.3 and IMEI came back again. When I went back a to 4.1.2 second time, the problem persists. What am I doing wrong???

SOLVED: Updated modem partition.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Ultra_Saucy:
So I just bought a nexus 7 off of amazon(used). When I first turned it on, I got the google logo, and it stayed on until I held the power button. It then was blank, and then the google logo showed for about 10 seconds, and then it goes blank, 10 seconds, then blank, ect. unless I go into the bootloader.(it might be worth mentioning that the little unlocked lock icon appears under the google logo.) After I got into the bootloader, I shut the device down and waited for a while(maybe 15 minutes). Then i tried to reboot, and it successfully booted. However, before i could get into the settings to check what version of android it was running, it reboot and got stuck at the google logo again. Is it possible to fix this, or is there a hardware problem? Thanks.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] charesa39:
Have you tried flashing the factory image yet? If I ever bought a used Nexus device, even if it were functional, flashing the factory image would be the very first thing I would do. You never know what the previous owner may have flashed onto it, which is evident by the fact that he/she had already unlocked it. I would say since it's already unlocked, just flash the latest factory image and to make double sure, boot into recovery after flashing and "wipe data/factory data reset." It's a good sign that it at least boots, but you won't know until flashing the factory image.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Ultra_Saucy:
OK, so what is the best way to flash the new image?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] charesa39:
Check out the OP in this thread from the Nexus 5 forums: http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2513701. Although it's for the N5, it is pretty much the exact same procedure for the the Nexus 7 (2013) (and Nexus 10). Basically, you'll need to install the ADB/Fastboot drivers to make sure your device is detected properly while in the Bootloader. Then, you can just flash the factory image. You can use Method 1 in the OP of that thread. MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD THE CORRECT FACTORY IMAGE. You can find the latest factory image here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images. The WiFi only model is "razor," while the LTE model is "razorg."

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] LinearEquation:
Confirm you have the right image and try flashing again. Make sure to wipe dalvik and cache too.

[Moto X Q&A] rmead01:
I'm now using Bluetooth in my car and would like to have my phone be a bit easier to use when driving and docked. Ideally I'd like to have my phone go into this car mode when connected to the Bluetooth which I can do with tasked. So I need some sort of interface that will allow me quick access to Spotify, maps, phone, SMS ideally.

Does anyone have any recommendations on. Nice way to handle this? Also if it could go auto orientate to landscape that would be awesome since its docked in landscape mode
[Moto X Q&A] That Ain't Falco!!!:
I actually spent a few days last week trying to solve the same issue. I'm a delivery driver, so I'm always using my phone in the car. I was very disappointed with the few car mode apps that there are, so I made something myself, and it's been working flawlessly

After trying a few things, I figured that short of building an app, lightning launcher was my best option. In LLX, desktops don't mean like scrollable pages in most launchers, they're separate entities like multiple desktops on OSX or GNOME. So I created a wonderful looking portrait desktop for normal use with LLX and Zooper, and another landscape one for car mode that matched my theme, and would become my default desktop when my car is connected. I have phone, mms, voice search, Waze, and a big clock on the main view, and I can scroll left to view a full screen Zooper widget with media controls and album art, or I can scroll right and view direct dial shortcuts for work.

So when I start the car, BT connects and tasker automatically switches LLX to car desktop, disables display timeout, turns media volume up, and brightness up. As soon as I shut the car off, BT disconnects and it switches back to the portrait desktop and old settings are restored. I don't have to press anything, and I don't have to run an extra app and worry about car mode. I'm not experienced with any of those apps and it looks and works perfectly. Took a few hours of playing around to get it just how I wanted it, but I couldn't be happier. If you have any questions or want details, just ask!

You should be able to flash the recovery by using the below command when in fastboot

You will need to cd command to the folder your twrp recovery .img file is.

Also did the install complete or cut off half way through install?

Were you using twrp 2.7.1.1?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirtyjob:
I spent the last couple of weeks trying to fix my i9100 GPS problem, which is that it takes a few minutes to lock and loses the signal very frequently.

I tried many things :

* changing ROM (Neatrom 6.3 Aroma)

* trying different modems (LPW, MS2, MS4 and LS9 at the moment)

* installing fasterfix

* installing GPS Status & toolbox which I replaced with GPS Status Test & Fix

* trying the static navigation thingy suggested on this forum.

It's pretty much the same as it used to be. I was considering that I have a faulty hardware but if I keep GPS Status T&F running with no GPS navigator app it never loses the signal. The signal isn't very powerful tho, ranging from 6 to 8 used sats. I also get the signal back very quickly if I open GPS Status T&F while using, say, Waze. But then it loses it again when I switch back to Waze. It seems that GPS Status is doing something even tho I'm just opening it without using any other features.

So I'm not sure where the problem lies. Hardware ? Software ? Bit of both ?

Any ideas ?

edit : also, does anyone know how to do this on an i9100 ?

Sorry I didn't reply before. Finally fixed this freaking issue.

It definitely was an hardware problem : bad contact between the motherboard and the antenna. I previously found a fix about this for the i9000 but had no idea where to find the contacts on the i9100.

Shiwer : sorry I can't post outside links yet so you'll have to look for the page by yourself. Google 'Améliorer la réception GPS galaxy s team'. You should find a thread in which in the 2nd post there will be 2 photos : one of the antenna, one of the contact that connects to the motherboard of the mobile. All you need to do is open your phone by removing the screws, then put some iron on this contact and on the contact of the motherboard with a solder. It'll make a proper connection between them which results in a solid GPS signal. Enjoy!

I need help figuring this out

I installed MiniSandwich Lite AOSP from kamarush in my Xperia Mini Pro ski17 with locked bootloader and everything went smooth.

After that i tried other rom, everything was ok, but i liked MiniSandwich Lite better, so i switched again.
