No sound / Auto rotate after 4.4.4 update

I just completed the stingray-4.4.4-cdma update on my Xoom. There is a bit of lag but most importantly I have no sound and the auto-rotate function no longer works. Any thoughts? (It is 4G capable but I am using WiFi only, not that it matters)

Touch Recovery Question...

I'd like to install OmniROM 4.4.4 on my XOOM (wingray). I understand the volume buttons used to navigate the Recovery menus, but the volume down button doesn't work on this tablet. Can I install a "touch" Recovery that completely circumvents the need for the volume buttons to navigate? The instructions at the beginning of this thread require "TWRP 2.6.3.0 R.A.H BigPart Edition Recovery" yet I cannot identify if this recovery is "touch".

Assistance, please?

Hi

Is this ROM still being updated or is the 30th Nov build the latest ?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kingsman1:
The last update to OmniRom or CyanogenMod was November 30, 2014. I.m pretty sure that EOS is in the same boat.

I'm pretty sure that Schischu and the others are working on a Lollipop Rom based on a Tegra 2 Rom for Samsung Tab 3.

I can tell you this, when they release the new Rom it will be a good, stable Rom. Just be patient.

Though Lollipop appears to be nice, there are plenty of reasons why it's wise to wait. Many devices haven't got it yet, and there were a fair number of serious bugs in it.

In the magnums Android 4.4.4 works very well, with very few hiccups along the way I might add.

Hey guys, I have been trying to get this to work all day. I installed TWRP BigPart and am able to successful boot into it. Once in there I

1. Flash the BigPart TWRP from SD Card

2. Without rebooting go to "wipe" and select everything but SD. Then i get an error saying FAILED because it is unable to /mount data, cache and all the other ones selected.

I just can't seem to figure out what step i'm missing or doing wrong. Has anyone encountered this and figured it out?

If i just go ahead and flash, it gets stuck on the boot animation.

Make sure you a 100% back up anything you want to keep first via a pc or onto a sd card cause it will wipe your whole system!..... (But not anything on your SD card!!!!) Follow the instructions from start to finish & your be fine mate

(Put all downloads your gonna install on your SD card I put them on system & SD to make sure of no mistakes! & make sure you have a good battery level as per usual when flashing.)

Hope this helps :good:

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deanr1977:
Oh yes it a 100% has to be rooted!!!! If you still want to make the jump follow the guides in the Xoom forum's..... But make sure you always have at least more than 50% of battery power (100 or just under is recommend though) & do not skip any steps or your Xoom tablet will or could become a door stop! The process is safe but I would say this as some advice, read then read again & before you root or flash your rom (READ AGAIN TO BE SAFE). But after you get going your be fine, there's plenty of very experienced Devs in this forum who know there stuff. Good luck mate & hopefully you will be joining us in the world of Rooted devices in XDA very soon

The 2.6.3 TWRP (Run and Hide Bigpart) should work, however, if you are converting from the stock partitioning to Bigpart, you will have to format all partitions except the external SD card, then reboot (to recovery again), before attempting an install.

Once I completed flashing everything and rebooting all I get is OMNI boot screen. It has been running for about 20 minutes with no change. Any ideas?

Thank you,

---------- Post added at 06:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:35 PM ----------

Hey Warrior2404, There are several steps that need to happen before you attempt installing the ROM. 1) Unlock your XOOM, do this using fastboot on your device and androids SDK. 2) You need to turn on USB Debugging. 3) Install the BigPart recovery image. After all this then you will go into the Team Win recovery options instead of the default recovery screen. I hope this helped. Sometimes if you have an SD card that is not being seen a simple reboot fixes the issue as well.

Hi

any chances we get a fix for the VPN issue code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=70916 (also on 4.4.4)?

It's fixed in 5.0 (Lollypop)

Official versions for everest already have a fixed tun.ko droidvpn.com/tun-repository/everest/REQGCC4lNjM1KjE/ , but since we have tun compiled in, we need a kernel fix.

Please... allow me.

On my MZ604, which is now used by me just for basic stuff, I have the latest, meaning "last", omniROM 4.4.4. The system is intermittantly nresponsive and always laggy, and is simply unusable at times. The thing is barely usable--and no utils seem capable of ferreting out the cause. I suspect crappy code.

Oh well. I got what I paid for. Back to stock, and reliable performance.

[Moto 360] ret4425:
Hey all,

Please don't flame, I am just looking for help (and I did search, I just want to make sure I am reading the state of things correctly).

I got a Moto360, and I use a Gear Fit. Is there still no way (on an S5) to use a "quick reply" to a text? Using the stock app? It is so nice on the Fit to just swipe a pre-configured text reply. I can't seem to do that on the 360, and what I read indicates I have to use a third party app?? Seems backward, but do I have that right?

Also, I can't seem to get my 360 to vibrate when I get a notification (email or text). I'm sure this is just user error, but I can't find the setting.

Thanks
[Moto 360] impala454:
When you receive a text, swipe to the right until you see reply, then if the speech request comes up, tap the screen again to get the quick reply options.

Pull down from the main clock screen and you'll see the mute/unmute. You're probably muted. Muted in this device's case means vibrate/don't vibrate (there's no speaker).

Hope this helps.
[Moto 360] ret4425:
Thanks. I tried it, and when I get to the speech request, there don't seem to be any other pages. I swipe all directions, and all I can do is go back. Do I need to configure it somewhere?
[Moto 360] impala454:
You say you're swiping in all directions. Just tap in the center. So to sum it up:

Recieve text message

Swipe to the left to read it

Swipe again to the left to Reply, then tap

When speech req box comes up, tap, and that should bring up the canned reply menu
[Moto 360] ret4425:
Thanks for sticking with me. I admit to being daft. Unless you're having a laugh on me, I just can't see it. When I get a text, I open it, tap "reply", get the voice dictation screen, and...nothing. I swipe, tap, double tap, nothing opens any submenu and I never see any canned replies. Any idea what I'm missing??

I'm using an S5, if that matters...

EDIT: It must have something to do with the type of messaging app. The stock Samsung app acts weird; this one just lets you hit "reply", then it sends a blank text. Handsent SMS doesn't even give you a reply option. Textra allows you to reply and pops up the voice reply app. If there an app that has the canned responses? Or is it just a flat spot for Samsung?
[Moto 360] matrix0886:
My experiences:

~Stock messaging app on my Nexus 4: swipe left, no reply feature on watch, only "open on phone"

~Go SMS Pro: swipe left, no reply feature on watch...which is weird because it used to have it...I swear it did...

~Messenger (from Google): swipe left (shows full conversation thread), swipe left again, tap reply, start speaking when it shows "speak now"

So it would appear that different apps do function differently on the watch.
[Moto 360] impala454:
Ah, yes, it does depend on the app you're using. I'm using Google Hangouts.

Note- Google Hangouts, not Messenger.
[Moto 360] ret4425:
So, for anyone that cares, your mileage will vary GREATLY depending on what messaging app you use. It's a little disappointing that a relatively "dumber" device like the Fit (which I bought for $79) works like a champ with replying to texts, and the "smart" watch is a little dumb with such a basic feature. I will give Hangouts a try, although I am not crazy about the looks of the UI.

Thanks guys, and if there are others apps that work well with SMS, please let me know.
[Moto 360] pakure:
When you go to reply screen with Google screen, swipe up to reveal canned texts.

Works with hangouts and messenger
[Moto 360] impala454:
This is the fault of the app makers, not Android Wear.
[Moto 360] ret4425:
Be that as it may, and I'm sure it is, it still stinks.

So, if you're looking, the canned texts works with Hangouts and Messenger ONLY that I've found. Have you guys found a way to add custom canned text?
[Moto 360] impala454:
Sure. I just felt the distinction was important, as software issues get fixed or features added. Device design flaws don't.
[Moto 360] pakure:
There's an app called wear canned responses .. But your phone need to be rooted.. It uses xposed... Also xposed doesn't work on lollipop

BAD ASS NOTE 4
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] frostitomik:
Today, I was washing my Z3 Compact in the sink with soapy water. It was in contact with water for max. 20 seconds and the water got into the upper speaker.

Even stranger thing happened, the BOTTOM speaker stopped working for a while. (about 10 minutes) I tried to play some songs via the speakers and only one of them was working and the quality of the sound was extremely crappy.

After 10 minutes both speakers strarted working again, but it seems the sound is much quieter now... It maybe has something to do with a message which appeared to me earlier today as well, about some hearing damage, so maybe the phone has set up the audio quieter by itself.

If anybody knows how to set it louder again, please help! Thanks.

Anyway, this phone is not really waterproof :(
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Fruktsallad:
I shower with mine daily, and I've also had in the tub - fully submerged. No issues at all.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] frostitomik:
I once was using the phone while having a bath, with no problems. But after I was washing the phone under running water this happened. Maybe soap is the problem(?)...
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] TJCacher:
Soap reduces surface tension (that's what makes it *work*, for Pete's sake). This allows moisture to seep into places that water alone could not.

There is a very high probability that your use of soap caused this problem.

Showering with one is almost as bad, and for similar reasons.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] frostitomik:
Well I was thinking that no fluid can get into the phone :angel:
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] 2mal16:
I submerged my phone into water and later phoned somebody , the sound was also very muffled and the other person did not understand me very well. This was however due to residual water sitting in the mic/speaker, it dried out after a couple of hours and was fine again. Did not test the speakers at that time but i guess the sound issues that you describe could be very well this.

Just let it dry completely then try again.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] frostitomik:
I could clearly see the water got into one of the speakers (inside) and after 10 minutes it probably dried out with help of the heat from the phone.

Anyway, It's all good now, but it could kill the speakers. I changed the topic title...
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] 2mal16:
Well dont get me wrong, i was not able to see any water with bare eye inside the hole, but since waiting and letting it dry removed the issue completely its the only explanation for the muffled sound. Anyway i would never use this phone in water again, since any drop or wear over the time can produce slight damage to the water seals integrity. The phone may be water proof (or not ;)) when it gets into your hands but that is no guarantee that its goind to stay that way.

In my opinion one should not use the phone underwater even if it is advertised. just be happy that it can take some rain, a spilled beer and if your lucky an accidental drop into pools etc... but i would avoid constantly putting this to the test.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] pricey2009:
