[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IT_Architect:
It came on my phone. It's in the Google folder. However, I don't see a check box to allow using Google on any screen. When I turned S-Voice off, it takes over when I'm connected Bluetooth. It does not respond to "OK, Google" with the screen on or off. Perhaps there is a different one on play?

It is clearer than Automatic Call Recorder it seems, but it suffers from the same problem in that it doesn't record any calls that are made from a Bluetooth headset. (No doubt easily cured by root access)

And it works better than anything I've installed. Thank you.

That requires root

That wouldn't be legal for me. It must be local.

Do you get root with Apple? That would be interesting. Android is a Linux fork. IOS is a UNIX FreeBSD fork, and FreeBSD and Apple work together all the time. I moved all of our servers off Linux to FreeBSD, so the environment would probably be somewhat familiar.

Being able to modify the looks is nice to have, but for me, Android+carriers doesn't give me the functionality I need and can get on a 2006 Touch Pro2. If I can get that functionality from an iPhone out of the box by adding a few apps, that makes sense. One other drawback that I heard though is the iPhones cannot walk and chew gum unless it is on a GSM carrier.

My needs are business needs:

1. A good local backup that I can restore the whole phone back to a previous point in time.

2. Local synchronization with Outlook desktop or exchange.

3. Automatically record both sides of telephone conversations, including when on Bluetooth.

4. Be able to initiate calls using my Bluetooth headset

5. Be able to use voice commands to initiate calls from the phone without the headset

6. Decent navigation

7. RDP so I can work on customer's and our servers.

8. VPN so I can work on customer's and our servers.

9. A good file manager like ES that can work over an SSH connection.

10. A good SSH terminal program like PuTTY.

My wants are:

1. Good speech to text. (I could care less about text to speech)

2. Good handwriting recognition in useful apps, like my TP2 has.

Thanks!

I installed "Google Now" from play, and it said it updated what was already on the phone. I haven't gotten the "OK, Google" to work, but when I press the microphone on the home screen and say "Call <somebody>", I get a popup that it wants all of my contacts. It even does that when I tell it the number to dial a number. Thus, needing them for voice purposes as indicated in the message is a deliberate lie. If I skip it, it does a web search on the phone number. I don't need to give them my contacts when I call via Bluetooth, and it works just fine. That indicates to me that Google doesn't need your contacts for voice purposes, it is selling your contacts to anyone who will pay. Those who would pay would only be unsavory characters.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Andrams:
Hello everybody!

I'm new in this forum, I'm also new in Android "tuning", so I don't actually know, what to do in this situation. :( Ok, I've read other topics about this, but every other seems lighter than my problem.

Firstofall, I wanted to apologize for my english, but I hope, you could understand me. :fingers-crossed:

So, there is an Xperia T LT30p which has been owned by my girlfriend. She donated it to her mother and so on, so long story short, one day there appeared a key and exclamation mark in a yellow triangle (if I understood it right, I really don't know) and after that it was dead. I plugged it in wall charger - nothing, no vibration, no led, nothing, then waited for some time, nothing changed. Ok, removed the back cover, tested voltage on battery - 3,83V, not so dead, I guess... Then I started to read topics in here, sounds like a hard brick, but how to solve it..? I tried to power it up, nothing (as you expected), also tried every possible key combination (power + vol up, power + vol down, vol up/vol down + USB cable) - nothing at all, no vibration, no leds, nothing on the screen. Yesterday I downloaded PC companion, downloaded Flashtool, tried to connect it to PC, of course no drivers, but got the QHSUSB_DLOAD, so I guess, it's not that dead.

Oh yes, the only way how this phone is responding somehow is when I plug in the USB cable/wall charger with removed battery, then it does one red blink and that's all, nothing else. And that doesn't matter if there is any button pressed.

The main question is - what can I try to do in this situation? Is it fully dead?

I really hope for your answers and suggestions, otherwise, I don't really know what to do with that electronic mess on the table... :fingers-crossed:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Remove the battery and press and hold power and volume up buttons simultaneously. Then plug your phone to computer.

You'll be able to flash a kernel with Fastboot mode in Flashtool that way. :)

If you have the kernel the phone should boot past sony logo. You may then install whatever ftf you like via Flashtool. :)

Btw, I have read somewhere that the computer recognizing the phone as qhusb_dload is the result of a broken motherboard. Would make most sense anyway, as the phone was not rooted or anything.

I suggest trying above steps anyway.

Good luck! :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Andrams:
The phone is not rooted or something, just a stock Xperia...

Just tried as you said, with removed battery pressed power + vol up simultaneously + USB - nothing, I got one red blink and nothing more, computer makes that ''no driver'' sound and that's all, flashtool doesn't find my device...

No wonder about defective motherboard, but the phone is bought in the summer 13', not so old for a phone... And what could had happened with this phone in just everyday use..? :confused:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Maybe overhearing or just bad luck with the motherboard.. Sometimes there is no explanation. :/
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] CS Fan 991:
Is your phone still under warranty ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Andrams:
Well, technically yes, but warranty card is hiding somewhere, and the phone is bought in an e-shop, i'm not sure if this shop won't send me a few doors further with my phone and I don't even know if this shop still exists.. :rolleyes:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] xmontix:
Hi, solved your problem with this method.?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Andrams:
Hi.

Not yet and I think I won't. I got an information about that sad day when this happened. Sony was upgrading an Android version but this process was interrupted somehow, so, I guess, it's quite dead... :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tauhtauhsauce:
Hi guys,

I recently bought an s3 that the previous owner had messed up (stuck at samsung logo), so I thought okay this is just gonna be a simple reflash. It's a i9300, I have no idea what carrier it comes from. - I live in South Africa and its most likely vodacom/vodaphone.

Anyway, I install the ultimaROM (cwm was still working) and I couldn't connect to anything when it booted - wifi, bluetooth, and cellular network. So I checked and I had no IMEI number and my baseband version was unknown, and from there I tried to backup and the restore the corrupted efs folder, which didn't work. (At this point I thought this was a stolen phone.)

After this I found the stock rom on sammobile and flashed it, and this enabled the cellular network which is working perfectly, but the wifi and bluetooth still doesn't work - tried on various kernels and roms. Currently I'm back at ultimaROM, it has a really nice feel.

I should explain that when i move the wifi switch to on (in settings) it stays there for a second or two then goes back to the left - it doesn't switch on.

I'd appreciate any guidance, if possible. My S5 was recently stolen and unfortunately I had no insurance on the phone:crying:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Do a full wipe, preload and internal sd card then reflash the latest stock firmware. Factory reset after in recovery.

If still the same then check if Mac address is valid, efs problems can corrupt it.

After that is it probably hardware.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfmdan:
boomboomer / OP:

Please read my postings on how an incorrect CSC can also cause an invalid IMEI. This is likely more often the cause over a corrupt EFS.

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/help/suggestions-s3-faq-t2902962
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
It's more likely that the csc change app happened to fix your nv.data file as it edited it -as the csc is mostly irrelevant to the phone's normal operation.

Your instance is the only one to try linking csc to efs problems, so no it isn't the most likely cause.

I'm glad you fixed your phone, but I think it was pure luck it coincided with the csc change. Besides, this op fixed his imei by flashing stock, probably due to efs v2 being unreadable to an earlier firmware.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfmdan:
Hi Boomboomer

I'm not trying link the CSC to EFS probs. From my experience it seems that if you have an incorrect CSC for your SIM/telco, you can end up with an invalid IMEI/serial and hence unable to access your network.

The standard response on here whenever someone has a 0049* IMEI or zeroed serial is "It's an EFS prob" and they never mention it coud be an incorrect CSC, as it was in my case. Sometimes it will be an EFS prob, I appreciate that.

I didn't fix my phone by using the CSC changer app so I'm not actually sure that would work but it should because I fixed my phone by flashing a ROM with a different CSC. That was the only difference between it and the same ROM with a different CSC that gave me an incorrect IMEI and serial.

As well as the S3 FAQ, this guide should be updated to note that an incorrect CSC can cause incorrect IMEI/serial and hence no network.

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/general/ref-imei-efs-stuff-i9300-including-t2393289

I have added a comment to that thread with my suggestions but I've not had any reply yet.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tauhtauhsauce:
Okay, I've done all of that and my Mac address is valid. My cellular network still works perfectly fine, but the wifi/bluetooth problem still remains. I think I'm going to work with the fact that its a hardware problem and take the phone apart.

I'll check for any damage especially near the wifi/bluetooth module and antenna and work from there. The LCD has some hectic "streaks" causing me to presume its generic so maybe it's a dodgy install. :rolleyes:

I checked my CSC - it's right for my location(South Africa - XFA), so that seems to be in order. Thanks for the help though :highfive:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfmdan:
I wasn't suggesting changing CSC would fix any wifi or BT issues but it could've fixed your cellular connection if its not a hardware issue.

Problem pairing with bluetooth headphone

I bought a new bluetooth headphone for calls, but I can't even find the device when I'm searching ..

The headphone works perfectly with my other phone (htc m8) though.

How can I fix it?

I tried multiple ROMs and I still haven't gotten it to work...

I don't know. I've had cm for a very long time now. However, when I bought the headphone yesterday I still had an old version of snapshot cm11 installed , I tried updating it to the newest snapshot, it didn't help.

Then I installed other various ROMs ,such as LiquidSmooth, ParanoidAndroid, Sensation. In all of them (including CM) I couldn't find my headphone. I am able to transfer files via bluetooth but it just doesn't recognize the headphone.

At first I thought the headphone might be faulty , but it works perfectly with an HTC M8 (stock) .

Thank you.

crash loop after replacing contactprovider.apk... help

Hi there

[IMG="About my phone"]https://i.imgur.com/lSM3Dw5.png[/IMG]

So yesterday I installed CM11 through the CM installer, and everything went fine. I then discovered how tough it was to import my facebook friends phonenumbers into my People app(contacts). I did som research and found this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2064859 , I followed the guide, but it wouldnt work, so i moved my backup of the Contactprovider.apk into the system/priv-app and thought that would fix it. But it didnt, I think this is were i made hell brake lose, i went into the system/priv-app folder and installed the apk(contact.apk and contactprovider.apk), I then restarted my phone, and now its ****. I starts by prompting me that the process "com.android.systemui" has stopped, when pressed ok, it pormpts me with the process com.anodroid.phone has stopped and finally the porcess com.google.process.gapps has stopped. I cant press ok to the last prompt....the worst part is that I just sat the phone up with some really importat 2-way authentications, I would hate to go through a long and painless process in gaining my accounts back....

I really hope someone has a hack so that i can either fix the entire problem or just gain som access to my google authenticator. :) or atleast can point me in the right direction.. ?

Kind Regards
