[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shaddz:
Hello,

I got my Verizon Galaxy S4 (SCH-I545 JFLTEVZW) back in June of 2013. When I got it, there was some hubbub over the different bootloader versions, and it was recommended to lock the stock bootloader so OTA updates don't overwrite it. I am currently still on VRUAMDK.

Since then I've gone through a variety of different ROMs and Kernels, such as PAC-ROM, CM 10 & 11, SlimKat, and others. I haven't once gone back to TW. I am currently using the CM11 JFLTE (Non-carrier-specific unified build) M10.

Recently I've been having issues with my picture messages not going out or taking a long time to come in (Or not at all).

When I checked my APN info, which should all be Verizon APN's, imagine my surprise when I see Sprint APN's!

I've tried manually adding Verizon, and it doesn't matter what I try to add, nothing saves. I can remove all of the APNs and lock myself out of any access whatsoever, and when I reset to default all the Sprint ones come back. I can enable Airplane mode, pull out my SIM card and battery, and reboot my phone after putting them back in and see VZW APNs, but as soon as I take it out of Airplane mode Sprint comes right back.

My question is a two-parter:

First, why can't I add VZW APNs? Or any for that matter? Why do Sprint's keep coming back despite clearly having VZW APNs on my device?

Second, is it worth it for my to reflash stock and update my device to a more recent bootloader? I know I will lose root if I do, and I am a little apprehensive, but is it worth it?

Thanks for the help guys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Drake9897:
I do not recommend updating the bootloader at all! DO NOT UPDATE THE BOOTLOADER! Instead, I STRONGLY suggest you flash the Hyperdrive ROM. I was running AOSP kitkat and switched to Hyperdrive and have ZERO issues with ANYTHING.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] shaddz:
I actually just flashed 4.4 Beanstalk with a new kernel and GAPPS and everything seems to be working fine now.

Only issue is now Hangouts doesn't show APN info at all, but I am definitely hitting VZW cell services. Weird.

You would have to turn off the vibration for the keyboard. It's the vibration they're hearing.

What adhesive screen protector has the lowest coefficient of static friction (μs)?

Has anyone collected data or estimated which adhesive screen protector has the lowest coefficient of static friction (μs) with the finger? I presume tempered glass wins, but I need a modifiable plastic-type.

Thanks!

So after updating my Verizon VS980 to the latest 4.4.2 kit kat, i then decided to try some ROMS so thats when it went south...long story short i was stuck in fastboot and finally got it to work just the PC wasnt detecting the USB or phone plugged in, i then decided to flash aboot, boot, laf, recovery like suggested in one of the threads...after that it was game over. I can feel it turn on or off if i hold down the power butting but its just a black screen....i tried going into recovery and download mode but nothing comes up just pitch black. so what do i have? pretty much bricked right? and if so should i go get a phone or is there still something i can do? i really appreacite anyone looking at this thread.

[Verizon LG G2] jlayer:
Hey guys,

First to let you know, I was a victim of the latest brick. I got a warranty replacement (don't ask). The phone came in today. The only reason why I want root is to be able to use the mobile hotspot. I'm still grandfathered into unlimited. I don't want to flash or do a custom ROM or a custom recovery. I like the stock ROM. I just only need root to do the mobile hotspot.

Anyway, so on to my situation. I downloaded ioroot, installed the latest drivers, enabled everything, allowed the RSA fingerprint. I ran the root.bat file and it didn't make it through the first step. ADB said it was rebooting phone into stock recovery...except it didn't. I've tried it now 3 times and I get the same result....green android with the red exclamation.

Am I stuck until someone figures out root on a 26A? I read that it should work but haven't read anywhere if someone has successfully rooted 26A out of the box. Is there something I can do to bypass? Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks
[Verizon LG G2] wilkster:
Stump root is supposed to work on 26a.

[Verizon LG G2] jlayer:
Yup...no sooner then I posted this, I read a thread on stump root. Trying it now.
[Verizon LG G2] jlayer:
Just to update...I have full root by the stump root method. Was a lot easier then expected. I prefer this method way more then the ioroot method.
[Verizon LG G2] heavymethod:
Were you able to get recovery installed. I ran into the same situation you did after my son took the update on his phone while it was rooted. If so what recovery method did you follow?
[Verizon LG G2] Namtaru:
Was wondering this myself. Just got a refurb G2 from Verizon after my wife's first one had a screen issue. It shipped with 26a and I used stump to root it, but not quite sure the best method to follow to install twrp.

I've installed twrp on 26A twice using this. Here's the difference (though I highly, highly doubt that it'll matter), I rooted using ioroot25 on 24A (without twrp) then updated to 26A...

Yup, just finished doing that and it worked great, then I downloaded the latest TWRP from here and flashed inside TWRP

stump root parse error

I am trying to install stump root on the 26a, and i keep getting the parse error.

I have enabled unknown installs.

I have also uploaded to dropbox and google drive to install from there but still no luck.

Not sure what else to do.

Edit

Fixed the problem. I was downloading stump root through es file explorer before.

When I downloaded through chrome it worked
[Verizon LG G2] Stbrightman:
Are you unable to use the mobile hotspot BECAUSE you have an unlimited plan?? Sorry if thats a dumb question, I'm coming over from Sprint and the reason I ask is that I'm on tiered data and I can use mine..
[Verizon LG G2] mjones73:
Verizon would make you pay for a separate tiered plan for Mobile Hotspot when on unlimited. I'm guessing that's still the case.
[Verizon LG G2] Stbrightman:
Did you use Freedom to install custom recovery? If so, which of those links from the freedom thread did you go thru? I'm on 26A and I'm not sure which version to run....
[Verizon LG G2] kochiloco:
I used autorec recovery.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maven1975:
Hello,

Waiting for my Z3 Compact to arrive. I can't wait!

Question for you owners out there. Did Sony add the option under storage settings like they did with the Z2 to move apps to SD?

Fingers crossed! :)

Thanks in advance!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boojay:
Would like to know myself. Seems like a boneheaded move if it's not an available feature by default. I mean, I know eventually root will allow us to achieve apps2sd even if it weren't, but it would be such an Apple move if this were a restriction.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] techguyone:
I could only see 'Transfer data to SD card'

Photos

Music

no apps or any other options yet.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxtester:
App2SD is not present and I'd predict that it'll also not come. I'd already be happy if we could get write access to the SD. Thank you Google... no, I don't want to use your Cloud "services".
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FSRBIKER:
Can you set pictures, videos and Music to get stored on the SDcard by default? Setting the location by default would make things much easier. Not too worried about 16gb for apps, always was fine for my N4 with everything else as well. Just needed to clean up storage every once in awhile.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ste2610:
Anyone found a solution to this, running low on internal storage!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerDave:
Luckily Google will bring back Apps2SD in Lollipop. Now we just have to wait, till Sony releases a LP rom...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xani.e:
Where did you read this?

Google only said:
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meaniez:
you can set the default image/video location from the camera settings, read somewhere that you can do the same with music via the play music app.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DerDave:
Okay probably got that wrong, but on the other hand effectively it's the solution to the problem. If the apps can easily store their biggest part of data on the SD, the internal memory will be save.

Hi All,

This is my first post to the forum, i have an xda mini PDA from 02 which is completely in German, I tried to adjust the menu display language,and to my surprise certian menu commands are in plain english, but the majority of the interface is pure German.

Is there a ROM flash that's available for this ?...I have also searched this forum and many users talk about an unlocking tool called lokiwiz. Is this necessary ?...I am currently in India, and i did put a local SIM card and i could make and recieve calls. So i guess the phone is not locked to any network. Please help me by giving me either a link or the proper resources for me to search, i have been on this forum downloading stuff that never worked. maybe it's my mistake of downloading the wrong stuff!.

Hope you can understand my situation, i am furnishing some details that appear on the startup screen:

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prosive:
I just noticed this too. I do have a Moto 360 as well so maybe that is messing with the blueooth? I have gone a couple car rides and it's perfect, and others it's really choppy.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stu5797:
This does seem to be a problem with me too. Sometimes perfect and sometimes not. When connected to Bluetooth I notice that Google maps speaker goes in and out as well as moto voice while driving
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diaa08:
I can confirm that if you have a 360 this is the cause. You can verify this by disconnecting the 360 through wear and the problem going away. For now what I have due is set up an IFTT to disconnect wear when by car's Bluetooth is connected.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gakio12:
I actually don't have anything else connected via Bluetooth and it still happens to me.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stu5797:
I figured it out. I was driving and I turned off Bluetooth completely and the voice worked perfectly. As soon as I connected back to Bluetooth the voice got choppy again...
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gakio12:
I looked over in the Note 3 forums, and users were experiencing the same thing. Someone said to listen to music with the screen on to fix it. Today I listened to music with the screen left on and sure enough my music didn't stutter once the whole car ride.

This leads me to think either the processor is getting clocked too low for playing music through A2DP when the screen is off, or perhaps active display makes it stutter whenever it activates. I will look into it further today.

In the mean time, does anyone know of a processor control app that will change the minimum processor clock if bluetooth is connected? Perhaps there is one with a tasker plugin.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billygoat32:
I'm experiencing the same issue, really sucks.... I'll try disconnecting the Moto360 on my drive today and see if that fixes it - although I swear I've had the issue before while it wasn't connected.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shock2sys:
SetCPU could possibly do this. You can definitely set the minimum CPU clock, but I'm not a 100% whether you can get it to do this WHEN a bluetooth device is connected. SetCPU has a profiles where you can define certain parameters based on conditions.

Of course, before you can get SetCPU working you'll need to root your phone and I have a suspicion that all other CPU clock apps will need root access too.

Has anyone had any luck resolving this?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shock2sys:
I'm hoping that either an OTA or Android L will fix this. My Moto X is fine when I'm using my Motorola S11-HD headset, but when connected to my car it goes in and out every few seconds.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gakio12:
So it isn't the processor. So far i have it down to either Wi-Fi or active display. Will report more when i find it.

I have 2 bluetooth adapters in my car, one which takes only phone audio and one which takes phone and media audio, the latter one continously drops and reconnects phone audio (even after forgetting the other device), which makes me believe it is some hardware compatibility issue
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NinJustin:
I have posted on the official Motorola Forums but I though I should re-post here as well becuase well....XDA fixes things.

So I just purchased a Moto X 2nd Gen Pure Edition as an upgrade to My 1st Gen Moto G. Both phones have the same problem with the Bluetooth Audio sounding like a scratched CD skipping and studdering and it seems to be way worse a problem on the Moto X than I ever had on the Moto G. It's not buffering it happens with music on the phone. It doesn't happen every time I'm in the car but I'd say 50% of the time.

I would think it's the car but before the Moto G I owned a Galaxy Nexus and never had the problem as far as I remember. I'm sure I would remember it's really really annoying. I have even tested with a friends HTC M8 over a long road trip and there seemed to be no issue there. In my car (2011 Subaru Impreza) with the G or X after a time it eventually starts skipping even if it takes a couple hours.

So I did some research before and have tried various things.

I have disabled the Wifi while connecting to BT as Motorola has recommended to owners of other phones. That didn't help them it doesn't help me.

I have removed all other BT devices from the phone while connected. Nope

I have removed the Phone in the profile so my car doesn't try to use it as a phone as well at the same time. Nothing

I have done all of the above at the same time stopped every other program other than Google Music and added the phone to my car fresh and I still have this issue.

During my research about my car the only complaints similar I found seem to come from someone else with Moto phones. I dont' know what they do special with their Bluetooth but it's not helping me out.

Are you streaming from play music or another high quality source?

Friend of mine ran into an issue on his note 4 that the processor would clock down too low for high quality audio when the screen was locked and that was the cause of the issue. He is not rooted he found an app called red eye that keeps the processor clocked higher and that fixed his issue.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beejaycee:

I'm on Lollipop, experiencing the same issue. Sometimes the bluetooth audio playback is flawless, sometimes it skips. So far, I've noticed the stuttering the most when playing music in my car, where my phone is hooked up to a charger, and audio is piped through a Bluetooth aux adapter.

What's the best way to get this visible to Motorola? The Motorola forum doesn't look like it's monitored very often...
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gakio12:
I have found the issue to be something to do with background WiFi scanning of available SSIDs. When I am driving through a city, Bluetooth will cut out every few minutes, while if I am driving on the interstate, Bluetooth will never cut out. I think SSIDs aren't being removed from the list of available WiFi fast enough (driving in a car, your phone will see many SSIDs), causing Bluetooth to cut out. I use Tasker to turn off WiFi while my car Bluetooth is connected, and while it didn't work at first, I have yet to run into the issue.

Another theory is that the phone is not handling interference from WiFi properly.

These are just hypotheses, but turning off WiFi should help, at least, it did for me. I too would like Motorola to fix this, it shouldn't be an issue.
