Phne setup or sound setaup hangs!!!

I have the same problem of above, after googling, searching and so I couldn´t find anything.

Everything was ok but suddenly when I try to enter in sounds setup or phone setup the device freezes and I have to soft reset no way to reach that.

I have ringo installed but I had it before and I was able to enter withouth any problem.

In the other hand I readed in a spanish forum that a guy that had this problem still having it after a full hard reset what makes me feel a little panic...:eek:

I would really apprecciate if anyone that had this problem and was able to solved give me any hint

Thanks a lot.

Hi everyone.

I’m currently on rooted SGH-i747M(Rogers) 4.1.2, and I'm trying to find out how to upgrade to 4.4.2 and keep it rooted.

Since my device is already rooted it won’t let me update to the latest firmware.

What would be the proper procedure to move to 4.4.2 rooted?

and does it worth it to upgrade to 4.2.2? I'm asking because I've seen posts on how to downgrade to 4.1.2 from 4.4.2.

Thanks so much in advance.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Once you upgrade to 4.3 or 4.4.2, you cannot downgrade to anything before 4.3.

Is your phone carrier unlocked? If not, I suggest downgrading to 4.1.1, unlock it, then start upgrading the stock ROM.

The easiest way would be to flash back to stock non-rooted 4.1.1, unlock it, and start updating via OTA or use desktop Odin to flash a stock Rogers ROM from sammobile.com.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] newbie386:
stssific sarah

Thanks alot for the tips!

I'm on Rogers and I don't remember doing any unlocking.

So do I download the stock 4.1.1 also from sammobile.com and use Odin to downgrade to it?

And after I unlock it on 4.1.1, do OTA update to 4.4.2., and then root it?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Exactly. That's what I did with my Bell s3. Make sure you are not rooted and running stock recovery before running OTA updates.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] newbie386:
On 4.1.1 what unlocking method did you use?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
This is my experience with the T999 model but it should be the same here. Personally I hate otas, so I avoid them if at all possible.

You shouldnt need to flash the full 4.1.1 firmware to do the unlock. Just the modem. Then flash the 4.4.2 firmware via odin after unlocking. Reroot and youre done.

Nothing wrong with how audit13 suggested btw. Itll work that way too. Just offering an alternative.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] newbie386:
Thanks to you all, I'm now on rooted 4.4.2 with CWM.

One thing I missed is to backup the rom using CWM. I've already restored all my previous apps and data using Titanium Backup, and I had to go through a lot of troubleshooting with errors like *Unfortunately ***** has stopped." I think everything's working well now though. Should I still do backup in CWM or is backing up with TB enough?

My second question is that it seems to drain battery more. When I wake up this morning the battery was only at 85% or so. I have it plugged in now but it's charging very slow. Is this a known issue with a fix?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Did you restore data and settings for system apps? If so, this can cause issues if done from one build to another, such as battery drain, force closes and degraded performance.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] newbie386:
I did TB-> Batch Actions -> Restore all apps with data. Right below there is 'Restore all system data' which I didn't do, but I'm not sure if that 'all' includes system data as well?

The selections under Restore section in Titanium Backup were the following:

RUN: Restore missing apps with data

RUN: Restore all apps with data <<=== this is what I did

RUN: Restore all system data

RUN: Restore missing apps + all system data

RUN: Restore newer versions of user apps

I recharged to 100% then performed a Battery Calibration using an app, but 20% just got drained in an hour and half of pretty much all standby time(screen off).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
I would factory reset, reboot and let it sit for a few minutes. Then using titanium, restore only essential apps and data first. You should be able to use the batch restore and then select from a list what you want to include. Test for a bit to see if anything you restored causes problems. If not restore a few more and test. Do this until you narrow down what is causing your problems.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] newbie386:
You're right. I should just do that.

I was following the root method at galaxys3root.com, and the files I was told to use were UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.01, Odin3 v1.85 and CWMS3ATTrecovery.tar in which there was image.img without any version number.

I did some digging and found Odin3 v3.09 which seems to be the latest version. Then I went to http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager to download the CWM from the original source, but they're all img files and odin wants a tar file. How do I put this into a tar file, and do I need to rename any? I just want to do everything right this time. Would DE-SAMSUNGNIZER_KNOX_REMOVAL_SCRIPT_V2.1 be a good idea as well?

edit: oh never mind I went into the CWM and saw the version was 6.0.4.7 which is the latest. So I'll just use the same files again for root.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] newbie386:
I just did a factory reset, and the CWM and the root as well as superSU are not lost. Is this normal? I thought factory reset takes away the root... Also I just checked in download mode that the Warranty Bit is now 1. It was 0 when I first rooted, so I'm guess the resetting might have done that. Oh well...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Custom recoveries and kernels are what usually trip the warranty bit, so if you installed cwm, thats what tripped it. I wouldn't worry too much over it. Warranty claims are pretty rare, and a lot of people have reported their warranty was honored even though the bit was tripped.

Root will remain after resetting because it is on the system partition. Factory reset only wipes /data.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] newbie386:
After factory reset I only restored some of the apps this time, and for many of them I restored only the data. But this battery drain issue is still there. It not only drains battery but in the morning when I woke up the lock screen didn't want to come on. I pressed the power button, and the three physical buttons' LED lights were lit but the screen remained blank. It took a long time until the lock screen comes on but it didn't respond to touch, acting very very laggy until I reboot. I tried wiping dalvik cache(although I wasn't quite sure what it was) in restore mode but it didn't help.

I learned about battery drain monitor apps and downloaded Wakelock Detector. It was showing that my AVG Antivirus Pro is awake all the time taking a lot of battery, and I'm not quite sure if it's supposed to be that way since it should be running in the background all the time. But this seem to be still too much. Can I just assume at this point that the Antivirus is what's causing the issue?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
I've seen others recommend wakelock detector, but I'm not familiar with it myself. But I doubt your AV should be using that much, nor should Android System. But a dead giveaway that there's a problem lurking is it only spent 1 second in deep sleep. And 7.5 hours awake with the screen off.

Looking at the wld screen, it certainly seems like AVG is the problem, or at least a big part of it! I'm not sure it's the only one though with your system use being so high in the first screen shot.

I'd suggest uninstalling AVG and test it at least for one full cycle. Also, look to see if wld is able to log kernel wakelocks. In better battery stats you have to set it to do so in settings if I remember right.

Anyone in India found a good screen protector and case ?

Would prefer something from flipkart as i am ordering the phone from there.

Thanks !
[G 2014 Accessories] jirstany:
About the Matt screen guard, I am not sure. but I got one myself from gadgetshieldz.. Used only the screen protector as of now! Pretty good i must say! Except for the fact, I didnt apply the skin pretty well! That apart, rest assured, its a good product!:good:
[G 2014 Accessories] whatever7276:
I'd ordered the Phone on the launch day, hence I got the Original Motorola Flip Cover with 50% discount (i.e. 850/-)

I must say, quality of the cover is excellent.

The back is matte finished with a very premium look, it also protects the camera lens nicely by adding a little bump to it.

The case has magnets into it and it snaps to the phone nicely.

Ohh....the flip cover also wakes the device automatically when opened and also locks the device when closed.

If you can also get it for 850, I'm sure you won't regret buying it.

About the matte scratchguard, I actually bought one from eBay but haven't used it because the cut outs looks a little off...

Hope it helps other buyers....

Btw, if someone finds a perfect fit scratch guard, please share the link etc here...
[G 2014 Accessories] tharmor:

[G 2014 Accessories] codeknight11:
I bought this case from amazon - http://www.amazon.in/Heartly-Spider...F8&qid=1417076843&sr=8-1&keywords=moto+g+kick

Although it is bulky but the black part can be de-attached if you want a less bulky look. It will also protect Moto G's fragile display (prone to damages even with minor falls) from damage to a great extent. I bought the white colored case and it looks great. Many of my friends liked the case's unique look (even I took off the black layer).

About the screen protector, I bought a total care screen protector from a local shop for 150/-

It's great and I use the 'total care' screen protectors on almost all my devices. I can say that the quality is great.

If you decide to buy gadgetshieldz, use promocode 'adw20' for discount.

Thanks mate.. that one is already on my radar :)

Noticed it a few days back and everybody been raving about it.

Any other suggestion for reg screen guards? Non tempered glass screen protectors ie..
[G 2014 Accessories] observingi:
I was using a Matte screen guard before changing to Nillkin, The matte one definitely reduced a lot of glare but also hampered the brightness and crispiness.

Nillkin looks like stock glass screen with additional protection.
[G 2014 Accessories] spacescreamer:
Those are good relevant points.. thanks mate :)

I have ordered from myscreenguard.com, will try them for few days and then will go with Nillkin stuff.

As for the case, i have ordered Cruzerlite Bugdroid. Wanted the Tudia TPU case, but that wasnt available unfortunately.

Hoping for the grip shells to be released by lazy Moto people soon. :rolleyes:

Alright so I have the phone in the title and I have been researching how to root the One X for 6 months or so just lurking many different forums and I have been having trouble finding a working guide to root my phone, My phone is on 3.18 software and Android version of 4.1.1

The newest threads I see about rooting my phone are from 2013 and then I found this thread that was updated back in May of this year, but I am very new to the whole scene of rooting and such. I have backed up all of the files from my phone that I need, but I am still having trouble figuring out what files and guide I should follow for my product as to avoid bricking my device. Any help is greatly appreciated!:) For the past half year I have been busy trying to understand more about rooting to possibly aid in learning how to root, such as what S-off is and why it's recommended to do and what unlocking the bootloader does/why it's important(still not quite sure) I've just had such trouble and late nights finding an up to date specific guide for my device.:(

I wasn't aware they'd still honor the warranty for hardware so I was a bit worried about that... but then, even if they didn't I guess it's the price we pay for modding (and not making proper backups beforehand lol).

I've searched here for hours and haven't found a fix for this. Unlike many of the posts I've found and read here, I don't have any issues with skipping with my bluetooth earbuds.

On my 8525 with 53 decimal set for bitpool and max bitpool and jointstereo=0 I get tinny hissing artifacts. not worth using.

these are no-name earbuds similar to the itech clip ones. don't know who made em-came from ebay. they worked great with my widcomm stack harrier.

increasing the bitpool numbers further has no effect on these. they don't seem to skip at all though. am I missing another reg setting change?

are there off the shelf headphones that don't skip without the a2dpfix service and work well with hermes? I see mixed answers on many of them.

Hacks, registry tweaks section of Wiki, search "A2DP" or "stereo". I use sony-ericsson hbh-ds970's and after the tweak, sound as good as my old wired earbuds. Only shortcoming is the occasional sound drop (millisecond or two, but still annoying). Setting PocketPlayer priority to "normal" virtually eliminates the problem. An extreme solution is applying Sleuth's A2DP fix... search the wiki for more details.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Sleuth255:
The hiss is a known artifact of the M$ BT stack. My testing with the Widcomm stack eliminated this issue. However, out of the box version 1 Widcomm tests showed decreased fidelity and noticable buzzing on the high end. However, I believe there's a number of A2DP fidelity tweaks that can be applied to correct this. I will start working on this when superdave gets the handsfree issue solved .
