[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] IIC0RRUPT10NII:
So I have been having an issue with my SGH t889 for quite some time and have not found a solution to it as of yet....

After rooting my phone and installing JediX20, along with a random Kernal and modem I noticed that my GPS has trouble locating me, locking, and keeping the sat lock. After searching forums and threads I have reverted back to Touchwiz (Stock with root), reverted the modem to MK7, and applied devil dual (for wifi issues with 4.3), I have used FasterGPS to apply a patch on my AGPS, I have used GPS test to see that 7 of the 16 Sats are connecting and disconnecting randomly, and I have cleared, updated AGPS settings... I am out of Ideas as to how to correct my GPS issues and it has gotten to the point that I am close to selling my Note and getting something else... I also remember reverting back to stock non root a while back in hopes of it being fixed....

Anyone have any ideas that I may be missing?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] megapickles:
I have precisely the same issue. I upgraded my bootloader so that I could install DN4 which was successful, but now my GPS does not easily lock and if it does lock, my accuracy is approximately 100m and it is guaranteed to drop out often. Ive tried different ROMs, restoring old back ups (prior to this debacle I was using Jedi X Open Source where my GPS would connect effectively instantaneously and rarely drop out), and using seperately GPS Status smd TopNTP to update my my AGPS. Nothing seems to work. My phone is a T889. I've even tried the physical action of cracking open my note 2 and bending up the GPS connection... Nothing works.

Anyone ever fix this?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GorfDroid:
Hi

The f2fs thread is not up to date and has broken links.

Can anyone list some f2fs ROMS and kernels, kitkat or lollipop that i can try out?

Thanks
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raz123:
Interested as well. Did you ever manage to install Lollipop with F2FS?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GorfDroid:
I did actually but you'll need an f2fs compatible kernel like sabermod Franco kernel.

Everyone says you need an f2fs compatible ROM but that has not always been my experience. I've used it with just an f2fs kernel and it worked.

I no longer use f2fs though. I use ext4 with journaling off. I understand it is the same thing and my phone is just as snappy. :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blair287:
Hi, just got my nexus 6 and noticed that the top speaker is louder than the bottom speaker was just wondering if this was normal also the speakers become distorted on some music but is fine on other.

Wondering what yoir experiance is with the speakers.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zetsumeikuro:
My speakers sound perfectly uniform no volume differences between the two. I haven't really experienced any distortion but I suppose it would really depend on what type of music you are playing. In the end these aren't boomspeakers and they are small. But for what they are they still sound pretty good.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blair287:
yea might have just been the music i was playing because when listening to some youtube videos the speakers seem to sound the same I just recon some of my music isnt proper stereo or something because some things sound uniform some doesnt.

Just restart the phone. This seems to happen to me from time to time.

I rooted the device,and changed the build.prop file.When I reboot the device,it shows kindle fire logo always.So I use V+&POWER into stock recovery,I reset the device.Now the computer couldn't recognized the device.I only entey the stock recovery.How I can do.Thank you,everyone.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] EncryptedCurse:
If you don't have ADB access at this point, then there's nothing you can do.

The best you could try is contacting Amazon about it and seeing if they'll replace your device.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] yubangcun:
Thanks for your reply.I have been contacted the amazon customer center.but I told them I rooted the device.So they give me up.

Poor you :(

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jimyv:
well

..I can tell you that at the moment your device is probably still fixable if you stop messing with it now. And start doing your homework. in pages past you will find other threads discussing this, there is even a root thread that discusses a certain Chinese root tool that roots via ADB anyway blah blah I have helped other people repair this situation but I am not willing to go fetch it for you. it is here and it can be done.you simply need to accomplish root on a device that will not boot ,the older Chinese root method we got desperate and used on older firmware works this way. once you have root and adb you will be able to change system file permissions,even push a different build.prop file ,as long as you have not wiped the system via safestrap with the proper research and time you will fix your device...somewhere here there is a direct link to, kindle help adb. that had correct drivers. You must uninstall previous drivers for your device on your computer and install the correct drivers to get a adb again. Good luck

[Sprint LG Optimus G] emfajardo2:
So I was in the country out of service trying to connect to a network. Under mobile network settings I saw APN settings which I never saw before and decided to mess with (yes I know, awful idea). So now that I'm back in a service area, I have a data connection but can't text or call. And of course, APN settings is gone from my mobile network settings and shows varoous CDMA settings like before, my ROM is Dirty Unicorns 4.4.4.

If anyone has any info on how I can fox my apn settings so I can text and call again that'd be great! Thanks!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
This app is basically a shortcut to apn settings. You can change any settings you need, and even a reset to default that might help you.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.appando.app.changeApn

The weird thing is, APn settings should only be for data, calls and texts should still work. You can also reflash the ROM zip and wipe dalvik cache and cache from recovery, that would reset your system partition but keep all the data settings and personalized stuff.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] emfajardo2:
I have tried reflashing ROM, even going back to stock, wiping dalvik cache and cache in the process. Still same error with phone and text.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
Well the app I linked will allow to change or add apn's if that's what you want.

However, do you have an EFS backup? Try restoring that. Also, check system network settings and make sure it is set to CDMA and not NV or GSM.

If you get on stock, try doing a profile/prl update.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] emfajardo2:
Unfortunately it looks like EFS backups have been erased after the multiple factory resets and wipes I've done. I called Sprint and they couldn't fix the issue and told me to take the phone to a store. At one point when I tried to update profile it said I must be in the USA, which I am. But that was fixed by some updates on their end and I can update profile/prl. However, now it'll say 4G with no bars and when I make a call, service goes out. Something strange that appeared temporarily but is now gone was a message saying the SIM card is invalid.

I also decided to look into phone identity and noticed that the my phone number section says unknown along with the MIN.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
Yup, your IMEI, MEID, MIN were wiped. Do you have an old backup you can restore? It should also have the EFS within the backup so it would restore the IMEI, MEID, MIN.

If none of that works, try following this thread, it may have something you can benefit from.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] emfajardo2:
Eureka! I just remembered that I had backed up my phone earlier when it was working! Only issue is I'm not sure how to restore the backup.

I have a file with freegee, TWRP, and EFS_BACKUPS folders. I would post the folder but not sure if this is a privacy issue?

Anyways, any help in restoring this would be much appreciated!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
Is it just an EFS backup? Did you use the "create flashable EFS.zip"? Or is it only the backup in freegee? You can post screenshots, I wouldn't recommend posting the IMEI or any of that but if it is just a screenshot of the backup then you're ok because everyone has the same name of the backup. I think it is m9kefs1, m9kefs2, m9kefs3. If you are looking at those files, you need to push them using ADB. I think the directions are in that thread I linked. If you created a flashable zip (also directions in that thread) all you need to do is flash the zip it created like any other zip you'd flash in recovery. (TWRP in your case) Just boot into recovery and select install, then from zip. And choose your zip.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] emfajardo2:
Here is a picture of the EFS backup folder I have:

View attachment 3091519

So does this mean I must use adb? It wouldn't work to compress a folder with the files correct?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
I would store those somewhere safe period.

But you can also

1) Go to that thread I linked,

2) Download the flashable zip,

3) run it in recovery so it creates the restore zip.

4) go on your PC and replace the 3 files in the backup (that look like yours) with those files

5) Go back to recovery and run the restore zip.

That might do the trick without ADB. If that is too much for you, I can or autoprime can (the OP of that thread) create the file for you, you would have to send us those files. And I have no need for them, but in the wrong hands, they might be able to be used to put your IMEI and MIN on another phone. I am not sure it works that way but if you are not comfortable with that you can get on hangouts and send me a message and I will walk you through it if you send me screen shots during the process. (You would have to email those files, do not post them here)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] emfajardo2:
Thanks for all the help! I might have to contact you in hangout, I flashed the zip but not seeing a zip folder made in the EFS_backup
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
I don't remember if it is created if you don't have an efs.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] emfajardo2:
Sorry for a very late reply but the problem has been resolved!

I was able to place my EFS backups in the zip created by dopy25, flash it in recovery, and then was able to gain network access by updating PRL and profile!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] LinoX:
Hi everyone.. I'm going really mad!

I can't find cabs!!!

For days and days I was browsing theese forums and I've read a LOT of useful posts (along with useful cabs to change/add/fix something)

IE.. one for that damn 3g ico, one for wpa2, one for keyboard fix, the smsbackup, the dialer, the voice command and so on..

NOW I've flashed (again) a new os and I need all those fxxxxd cabs.. I can't find them (well..someone of them) with the "search" function!!!!

To MODS: Why don't we create a wiki page with the direct links to every useful cabs?? Or a sticky thread here with a list for every cab? :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] slimsaturn:
Why didn't you save the first time you banana head. Also you can create a wiki page too, don't need any moderators assistance.

Why don't you bookmark the threads or the posts when you found. Don't blame us cause you decided to flash. You found them once, use the search button to find them again
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] randomelements:
Some of the stuff is on the Extras wiki page so you might like to start there.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] xultar:
Banana head...buhwawa! Very correct.

People...save your cabs. on your SD and on your lappy or pc or mac or whatever you use. who knows when you'll need to handle up on some cab business.

Also don't complain...the wiki is there for everyone. You wanna see something on the wiki then wiki.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] storm99:
Why don't you click on the "attachement" icon on the sticky thread to check if there's any cabs you are looking for? As the others suggest, use the SEARCH option.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] DeniaL:
I have a few cabs in my sig.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JasenR:
It's True!

You can never get a cab when you need one.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] shogunmark:
the wiki can be edited by any member.. if you find something that is much needed then put it on the ftp (as long as it dont violate any of rules) and add it to the wiki with a link to it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] shogunmark:
i also went ahead and made a hermes wiki page for carrier settings cabs.. Anyone feel free to edit this and add files

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_provider_cabs
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ChaoticDruid:
Not more f'n stickies, there is already a larger list than on the main hermes sub, of crap I gotta scoll through every page, and Im sure Im not the only one who browses the forums mainly on their device.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hitch:
Also, I got this idea a few years ago from someone when I first started messing with PPC's. When you find a cab that you will use again. Make sure you save it as "read only" that way is does not get deleted when you run it. I keep a folder on the storage card with a file labled cab's and back it up frequently. I must agree, It's sometimes difficult to find what I'm looking for when I do search. I love the fun of creating an interesting subject heading, but that does not help someone doing a search if the subject is inside jargon. Your subject heading will help no one down the line looking for the same info, even if you are pointed at the source for cab's in this thread.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] the_passenger:
If the guy doesnt even know how to save the damn cabs file on his computer or storage card, I'm wondering how did he manage to flash the phone to begin with.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] LinoX:
I know how to download a file but no-one WANTS to save each "this could be useful someday" cab.. It is an UNUSEFUL THING and lead to confusion, requires maintenance (to always keep the latest version) and so on.

Everyone does backup his cab (if he uses, have used, or he's sure it will use them).

FTP each cab (and edit the wiki accordingly) IS a LONG operation to do now that could be avoided if MODS forbid to have post attachment.

Do you want to share a cab? OK.. put it in FTP, edit the wiki, and post here both links instead of attaching directly the file.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kyphur:
Hard Drive space is cheap and you should never count on someone else to make sure you will have the resources you want or need.

I have more Cab Files than I can count and don't plan to stop saving them.

Mods are here to moderate not rule over the users. This place is a community effort.

If you see a need then do something to fill it. You want a Wiki Page with useful Cab Files, start it and upload the cabs you do have as a beginning.

This discussion is going nowhere so I'm closing the thread.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sonicjosh:
I have a 7" Kindle Fire HD, now say I want to find a rom, root method or anything else for it, this would be easy if there weren't multiple iterations of the 7" Kindle Fire HD. More specifically I have what's known as the KFSOWI... you might see another name, "Soho"... or you might call it the 2013 model... or maybe you call it the 2nd gen model. That's 4 names I need to look for in a thread just to find if it's even relevant to my device, if I see something like "Tate", "SD card slot", or "Camera" I know I can get out of there as that thread is for a different device that has no compatibility when it comes to these roms.

So, my question is: Can we split the Kindle Fire HD 7" subforums into more specific subforums that indicate which device you're actually posting about?

I can look at other stuff around here and find info specifically for my Verizon Galaxy S4, there's a subforum for each carrier for that phone, and it's not lumped together with another model. Amazon may be a bit to blame here with the Apple-like naming, but at the same time it's not that hard to make a different subforum for a new device. Imagine if you were to go looking for anything about modding iPods and you found a website where there were only a few categories involving products with different names "iPod Classic (all generations)", "iPod Touch (all generations)" and no standard tagging system to identify which model a post is talking about, you just had to keep reading until you found something that identified which device it was talking about.

My point is that it's frustrating for no good reason, we have multiple devices that share the same name and same subforum but are not the same devices.

Hi

I'm trying to use my 10.5's IR blaster with Anymote from the play store. Tried it with my TV and Verizon STB but nothing is working.

Anyone has success with this app?

It's possible I might've over-debloated and frozen something I should not have. Anyone knows which apk is needed for the IR function? I see two things called remote controls and I enabled them but it made no difference.

Thanks

I downloaded the peel remote app from the play store and it did not work. Looks like a very slick app though.. I probably disabled or deleted a needed service somewhere.
