Bluetooth issues

Hi,

I've got some issues with BT headsets. Posting to this thread as I got best results with CM12.1 and CM12 with f4ktion kernel. So the topis is kind of multi-ROM and multi-kernel but need to post somewhere :)

Phone: I9192

BB: I9192XXUCNG2 (which is quite old but latest for XXU region)

I've tested following BT headsets:

- http://www.plantronics.com/us/product/backbeat-go-2 (ref: plantronic)

- http://www.jabra.com/products/speakerphones/jabra_freeway/jabra_freeway (ref: freeway)

- http://www.jabra.com/products/bluetooth/jabra_sport_pulse_wireless/jabra_sport_pulse_wireless (ref: pulse)

I checked with the following CM ROMs (generally it does not matter which build was used):

CM11 by k2wl with CM kernel

All headsets work fine. No specific issues. There are very rare drops, i.e. 100ms while listening to Spotify. I generally stay with this ROM as it has no issues with BT.

CM12 by k2wl with f4ktion 2.1.0 kernel (ref: cm12_k_f)

plantronic and freeway work very well.

pulse works as heandsfree for making calls but for audio (a2dp) there are the following isuses:

audio plays back and stops - no further sound

audio plays back with gaps - sounds like audio gets out of sync and after a second tries to synchronize. so some parts are repeated or skipped.

audio does not play at all

bluetooth smart heart rate monitoring does not work, i.e. phone tries to get HRM but it gets disconnected (endomondo)

CM12 by k2wl with CM kernel (ref: cm12_k)

There are a2dp issues with all headsets as in cm12_k_f. So it seems that f4ktion kernel solves issues with freeway and plantronic in the above rom.

CM12.1 by F4k with CM kernel (ref: cm121_f)

CM12.1 by k2wl with CM kernel (ref: cm121_k)

Both ROMS have got same following issues:

plantronic works fine

freeway and pulse play back audio (a2dp) much better than CM12 roms. there are some synchronization issues, i.e. audio does not play smoothly but there are no silent gaps. Overallly i can listen to music but i can hear it could be better

heart rate monitoring works fine

I checked all headsets with Nexus 5.1 stock rom and all headsets play back smoothly.

To sum up, CM11 works best, CM12 with CM kernel has issues with all my headsets. Using f4ktion kernel solves all issues except a2dp and HRM with pulse in CM12. CM12.1 ROMs handle plantronic perfectly but have issues with pulse and freeway (both are from Jabra). In CM12.1, HRM of pulse works fine.

I did not try yet CM12.1 with f4ktion kernel.

I'm thinking about updating baseband to the more recent one, but the latest are for India. Has anyone got experience with changing BB from one region to the other?

The bad thing about BB is that it includes all radio, i.e. telephony, wifi and BT. So there is a change that BT implementation is better in newer BBs.

There're still missing some code under external_bluetooth_bluedroid on CM source code, so you can expect these issues until it get merged.

In my case, I can connect with no issues, my Nokia headset or connect to my PC and play some music.

No Problem for me

Just to let you know I have been using both 5.0.2 & 5.1 and at the moment running 5.1 (08/04/15) I did experience to FC from the likes of keyboard, speed dials etc etc..... I persistantly used the applications and after 4-5 FC they work perfectly since, even after restarting device. Currently using the Kernel that came with the rom I noticed that Performance Control doesn't seem to work properly, its OK to overclock but unstable. I found using romtoolbox help with voltage setting etc.....

Hope I haven't left anything out :D

3G

Hi,

Phone I9192

Build CM12.1 150408; kernel 2.1.7

I experience the following problem:

The 3G data connection is not restored after WiFi gets disconnected, i.e.

1. No WiFi in range or WiFi disabled; 3G data active on SIM2

2. WiFi gets in range. And operational

3. WiFi gets out of range or is disabled. Cellular data does not come back. I can see exclamation mark in the range indicator for both sims.

Restart helps - until first wifi connection.

Anyone experiencing similar issues? any hints how to fix?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crube:
Update: it seems that it's not related to WiFi. The first time data is enabled, it works. The 2nd time it fails. WiFi does not matter. Going into airplane mode and back is a workaround, i.e. data can be enabled again only once.

What have I noticed after a week of use, that sometimes the status bar disappear when you press the unlock button on the phone and you can not access the quick setting by dragging down the status bar, because it doesn't exist and you have to unlock your phone first, and after it will reappear. I hope the developers will repair this in the following updates :)

and will succeed to optimize the battery consummation even better. With the mobile data on and moderate usage I have gotten a day of decent use.

Thank you for your efforts in the name of all who use this ROM.

Hi everyone.

What have I noticed after a week of use, of this ROM on my S4mini LTE (cm-12.1-20150408-UNOFFICIAL-serranoltexx.zip and gapps-L-4-9-15) is that sometimes the status bar disappear when you press the unlock button on the phone and you can not access the quick setting by dragging down the status bar, because it doesn't exist and you have to unlock your phone first, and after it will reappear.

Then I have this problem, with the apps installed on the SD card, after reboot, they just disappear from the "desktop" of the device.

I hope the developers will repair this in the following updates :)

and will succeed to optimize the battery consummation even better. With the mobile data on and moderate usage I have gotten a day of decent use.

Upgrading from Lollipop 5.0.2 To 5.1

Hello Team,

I would like to thank you for all efforts done for Android community....it's really the best reference for android developers.

I have updated my Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini from BJ to Android L 5.0.2, and as there is new available revision, I want to go to last revision : Android 5.1.

My concern is : Is that possible to upgrade my phone from 5.0.2 to 5.1 without re-installing all existing apps that I have already installed on last version?

Thanks in advance :)

Upgrading from another build of CM12?

Reboot into Recovery using 3-button-combo

Install the ROM from internal/external sdcard using your Custom Recovery (CWM, TWRP, Philz Touch)

Optionally install Google Apps

WIPE Dalvik/ART Cache (wipe cache partition + wipe dalvik cache)

Done! You can now reboot the phone to enjoy the rom

Hello all, I had this issue with the calendar synchronization, but there is an easy fix that solve this problem, you have to install google calendar, and it's done :)

---------- Post added at 05:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:18 PM ----------

@ F4k First of all I want to thank you for your work, and your effort by doing this ROM.

Than to help your future development I wrote down the bugs I found in this couple of day of using this ROM.

1 - lock screen error, sometimes the status bar just disappear when you push the unlock button, you can not access the quick settings at all, and you have to unlock the phone by swiping to reappear the status bar.

2 - calendar error, google account didn't synchronise until you install google calendar.

3 - the battery saving mode can not be started from the quick setting, drop down bar.

4 - battery life is very sort on LTE and WiFi data, and even on standby period. Max 2 days with moderate, or minimal use. There is need for further optimisations.

5 - no HD voice on calls

6- an interesting feature that could do happy a lots of people will be the notification light - you could program the physical back and menu buttons back lighting as notification light, and use it for missed calls, SMS or calendar notification, and let the user to program the blinking time and period for the notifications.

7 - an other use full feature will be the OTG-integration.

8 - automatic software update doesn't working, you need to update manually every time a new build is available.

*9 - it will be nice to upload a change-log with every new build or post in on this forum, that we could follow the development process, and support you with our ideas and money if that's necessary.

All other features are working perfectly, and I want to thank you again in the name of all the S4 mini users, that you made possible the impossible for use.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F4k:
Thanks for your feedback.

Some things will be get fixed with time eventually.

Some features that you request is already implemented on the kernel and ROM, like USB OTG, or Backlight Notifications (BLN), this is an Unofficial build of CM12 with some extra goodies added, so OTA update is not possible ATM.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] honeyx:
It´s implemented in the Kernel, even in the official CM12 builds. Just not enabled. You need the BLN App to get it activated.

About BLN, yes it´s supported but not active by default. You could set it active in your Build without the need to install an extra App. On the older CM versions I used an init.d script to set it active because the BLN App caused my phone sometimes to reboot when I got several messages at once in Whatsapp. By activating this via an init.d script this didn´t happen.

However on lollipop init.d is not supported so ppl have to use this app to get BLN working. Or you could add init.d support or simply activate BLN by default in your ROMs.

I think ppl would be happy if this is not just supported but also natively enabled.

Play store and other issues.

I've been using this rom for about 2 weeks now, and it is awesome, thanks to f4k,

But there are few minor bugs, which I know will be fixed soon when reported,.

1. Clock(deskclock) after few days use, stops responding when alarm is set/created and stops working when it is supposed to ring, I found out that clearing data for the app fixes this issue temporarily.

2. Google play store cannot be updated from 5.3.6 to 5.4.12 even though it's out, whenever I check build version in play store, it says "Google play store is up to date" but it's not..

Since clash of clans requires play store to be updated to purchase Items, I need a quick fix fr this,. Well I tried stopping, disabling, removing my account, and installing apk, all separately and together, but no luck

3. Status bar icons like battery, network signal, wifi overlaps with date/time when set to display in middle.

4. Disabling the default camera disables the camcorder permanently such that other camera apps can't access video recording functions but can take pictures alone.
