Plugging in plain stereo headphones or aux (no external mic) turns off the phone's internal mic.

Not sure what I did to cause this issue, but pobably trying to replace DSP manager with Viper sound (neither worked).

I looked in build.prop but no audio settings in there and hoping someone knows where they are.:confused: I'm surprised I can't find an xposed module to control audio input/output.

[Moto X Q&A] eddi0:
Hello-

I have been banging my skull all day trying to figure this one out. I am trying to set up my gmail account using the stock email app using exchange. I am trying to have a combined inbox from all three sources of my emails vs having different apps for each email provider and I want instant emails (hence using exchange). I have set up my msn and live accounts with no hitches using exchange but I keep getting the error "you do not have permission to sync with this server".

Questions: first off, is what I'm trying to do even possible or do I need to use IMAP? Will IMAP get me "instant" emails since the settings only show frequencies to receive emails (i.e. every 5/10/15 mins etc.)?

Please help, I'm losing sleep....

[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackinfinity:
I can start of I am coming from an LG G2, as we know G2 despite being little bit older is still today one of the fastest devices out there, with none microlag and very very fast animations.

So you can imagine the contrast was so big going from G2 to Mate 7. I did read reviews before buying this device that it was very fast and not laggy at alll..fast GUI.. CPU performance seemed also satisfied. I knew before I bought this device that the GPU performance and Camera was the weaker point, but especially the GPU. But I thought damn it is 2014, so it better be fast... the experience I have after been using Mate 7 for about a few days that the it is anything but fast and non laggy, I think the Mate 7 have constant microlag, the microlag is a big problem, but the biggest problem for me is the painfully slow animations!!!, all the animations especially when switching between apps, such as kik, skype, whatsapp, outlook, these animations are so painfully slow that is not acceptable! I am not lying but the G2 felt twice as fast. In current experience I feel like I have bought the wrong device, but Like the screen it looks better then expected (JDI made) I also like the screen ratio.

But the fact that the deceive is to slow make me very unproductive, and makes me think almost twice before switching and opening new apps.. with My G2 I did not have that in my mind at all I just pushed at all buttons without thinking about it and evertyhing the go very fast and smooth and fast transitions

My questions.

1. The painfully slow animations and microlag, is this realistically fixable with software ? or is the very weak GPU chip

to blame for this ?

2. What can I do to speed up animations and reduce the constant microlag and make drastic performance boost ? My philosophy is if your GPU can't handle all the animations then do not have them to begin with, but the truth is the phone looks like **** without them, I did actually turn them off in developer options but it looks so boring that it is hard to live with it.. the standard setting is 1x I leave at the and putting my hopes in future software updates.

3. Any news regarding Lollipop ?
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hannanzikrea:
Go to about phone option in settings and radio the build number 5-6 times.

Now go to developer options, scroll down and turn off the window transition animation scale and animator duration.

Hop e this helps...
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackinfinity:
Hello, as I did write, I did try to turn them off, but animations is essential, it is is important for a device to be fun to work with, turning them off looks the system looks very boring and non inspiring. Chaning the duration scale to 0.5x did help very slightly....is still very slow.. but I can understand if people getting used to the slowness but side by side with a different device it is very slow.. and the slow animations is to blame.. and every app use animations.

It seem like this, that until the app is loaded in the memory it is slow, the transition to open apps is very slow..

but the way you are using a smartphone is you close and open apps constantly, cause you have a lot of different messaging apps for instance you switch between them constantly.

I am also disappointed after a few hours with the Mate 7 with 16GB. Using especially Chrome and there for example theverge.com the scrolling through the Website is often stuck, the overall performance is not so great I think.

[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackinfinity:
yes... especially the multitasking function is slow..takes way too long time before all the apps are presented to the screen which make the whole function slow to use.

But also animations and transisitations in general are slow, they are not 60 fps... and there is such a big difference between 60 fps and slower, it as another experience, where you do not need to think twice before opening an app or using the phone cause everything is so fast that you do not need to think twice about things..

Besides the form factor and screen to body ratio G3 is simply not a good phone, especially the screen is terrible and very dim, I would not be able to live with that since I want a more bright display.

This should work. other phones has their performance settings on default high, mate 7 use power saving mode as default.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackinfinity:
I have been using 1x animation for a long time, but like 1 month I did discover ".5x" is the fastest. it should have said "0.5x" but there was no zero..I missed that...

Just to let you know it is more speed with the 0.5x , but it will introduce microlag at and non smoth animations at times..but it still worth to have it..to get more speed into the phone.

The default animation speed setting was there to mask a slow gpu, it is the same that Apple and iphone do, people always say that Iphone are non laggy and fast yet with slower hardware.. but one of the reasons besides good OS optimations is that there animations is slow on purpose...

Myself is totally allergic to slow animations, it makes me work slow on the phone. To be able to use yor phone smart is a sport and you need practice, but you more the use the faster you become at doing tasks on your smartphones, but if the animations are slow it makes you less productive and you work slower... it would be like having a speed limit on your keyboard on your computer when you write..it is the same...

I still deeply recommend the .5x setting (not 5x BUT .5x with a dot before).

With Lollipop I hope some of the under the hood stuff is improved... I will notice any performance increase...

I am more intersted in the under the hood stuff...

Have you tried changing governors? You may want to give ondemand+cfq i/o scheduler. I think the default governor our phone uses is Interactive, but its somehow not efficient as it should be and makes the phone heat up faster
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackinfinity:
No not sure I understand fully. How to do that and what it do?
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xlr8me:
+1

:good:
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blitzkriegger:
Is your phone rooted? Basically governors help determine how a smart phone's processor cores would behave given different types of workload. I/o schedulers on the other hand help govern how your phone accesses and processes files on its internal storage. our phone has 6 governors:interactive, ondemand, conservative, userspace, powersave and performance. For I/o schedulers we have noop, cfq and deadline. You can further research how each works. But basically governors help in scaling the kirin's processors depending on what you are doing on your phone (whether browsing, playing games, etc.). Like, if you open your screen and play a game, will your phone ramp up its frequency to the highest so the game will run fast and smoothly in favor of better performance? Or will it force the app to run at a lower frequency to favor battery life? Your I/o schedulers meanwhile help compliment the governor in processing operations.

If you have root you may try installing an app like Fauxclock or Trickstermod, which allows for these settings to be configured. I personally think, based from my observations that the default governor our phone is using (interactive) is somehow "incomplete" or inefficient. which may partly explain the micro lag (though some of it has to do with the way "Dalvik" works, and which hopefully ART will improve on when Lollipop comes)Tweaking/changing these settings may help you reach that balance between battery life and performance.

I've had a CM11 Official Nightly installed on my phone for a couple weeks, and just today my phone started turning off, and when I try to turn it back on it just shows the Samsung logo for a few seconds, then flashes the CM11 logo, then the screen goes black. It does fully boot up when I pull the battery for a few minutes then turn it on again, but it only lasts for a couple minutes before shutting off again. It does the same thing when I try to boot into recovery (TWRP), it shows the Samsung logo with the boot recovery text, then shows the TWRP screen for a second, then shuts off again. Rarely it will boot into recovery. Any idea what the problem is or how to fix it?

Where on my PC to I enter the adb command?

This is in regard to the adb command for adb sideload on my Z Ultra GPe

I moved the file to c:, but the command keeps saying it isn't recognized as an internal command.

This is what the command window shows when I pull it up: "c:\>"

This is the command line that I enter:

"adb sideload c:\830f5fda644bfc55f82a4e01fb5fadae4b64fad6.update_1278-8069_R3C_KOT49H.S2.2052_Final_signed.zip"

This is the error message I get:

"C:\>adb

'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."

What is wrong with this. I have no clue what I need to type into the command window to get this to work.

_________________________________________

I finally figured out the adb sideload thing, but the update won't work. It says something about not being able to apply the update over a newer version.

I made the horrible mistake of flashing FreeXperia CM12 through ZU Dual Recovery and it replaced that recover with a Cyanogen recovery that has no way of flashing zips. And since this restore procedure doesn't work, my Z Ultra is stuck on a ROM that doesn't have wifi. I've tried to reflash ZU Dual Recovery, but it won't flash.
