[P3600 General] niobium:
I have my P3600 since Saturday and I updated it with the latest ROM which included the GPS.

Now I’m having problems with the power settings and functionality. I search all the threads for solutions but no similar problems are described so I post a new thread.

Problem 1:

The power settings are: backlight off after 30 sec. power off after 1 min. (on battery power). After 30 sec. the backlight dims to the lowest setting but the device does not switch off after 1 min (or any time for that matter). This is a huge drain on the battery! I can switch off the device with the power button but once it turns on again (e.g. while receiving an SMS or email) it stays on with the dimmed backlight.

Problem 2:

Using a Bluetooth headset and the media player the player pauses when switched of with the power button. This means just listening to music for around an hour and the battery is completely flat. My previous device was a S200 and that worked fine (could be switched off with the power button).

My guess is that both problems may have simple solutions so I’m asking you all to help me with this.

Thanks in advance,

Stefan
[P3600 General] anonimo:
Well for problem 2 you haven't searched enough! Anyway you should not use the power button; go to the Windows Media player settings and map the "Toggle screen" function to a hardware button. Then toggle the screen off when you play music.

Regarding your other problem: what software have you installed? Have you got this problem on a freshly upgraded phone?
[P3600 General] niobium:
The solution you propose for problem 2 probably works for other devices but not for the Trinity. You can only assign buttons up, down, left, right and enter and they are needed within the player for obvious functions.

Problem 1 after fresh ROM update but right after that I installed TomTom 6.

I might try a new ROM update and check but rather as last resort...
[P3600 General] anonimo:
It works for the Trinity too. You can also assign other functions to buttons if you keep them pressed. Toggle screen is assigned to "Hold Down" in my case. So if I press down once I decrease the volume, if I keep pressed I toggle the screen.
[P3600 General] Moaske:
As to your first problem; i'm having the same problem too...

To narrow it down a bit; my device turns off (to standby) just like it should when i just briefly check the time or something and then put it away with the todayscreen on (so with no aplications running except some today-plugins ofcourse). However; it DOESN'T go back to sleep when the system has given any sort of notification, like a missed call or a received text-message or reminder for a calendar-item.

So my best guess is that it has something to do with the databases notification que (where WM2003/CE 4 had the problem of overflowing this notification que).

It's really anonying the hell out of me too, cause it really drains the battery fast if you don't discover it soon enough... :(

As for problem 2; map the screen-toggle to pressing the silver 'enter'button.....that workd great for me. By the way; i'm tinking about getting the new wired media remote control HTC is releasing shortly (check this link). I wonder if these buttons will be mappable..... :)

Edit: just as i posted this, i received a text message and this time it nicely turned back to standby (ie turned of) state when i didn't check it right away. I did however soft-reset last night before going to sleep. So i really do think it must be in the notification que somewhere, as PocketPlus will still clear that everytime i soft reset. Anyone having the same problem exactly as described ?
[P3600 General] niobium:
Well I found my phone again on after I received an SMS and this made me decide to completely reinstall the original ROM (including the GPS).

Step by step I installed all the applications (and tested the device in between: I started some programs and got some notification).

So far the result is that it all works fine now.

The difference might be the different ROM (from smartmobility.nl in stead of europe.htc.com although the version is exactly the same).

For problem 2: I unmapped the button 1 (was speed dial and moved that one to press&hold). In media player I mapped the button to ‘toggle screen’. I still like the S200 for this better because it only kept the media player & Bluetooth alive so that’s the best for preserving the battery…
[P3600 General] Moaske:
Hmmmm....i do the screen-toggle everytime i use it as a musicplayer, and i get considerable good batterylife.... :)

However, i'm not using the BT headset anymore cause the volume was too dim...i'm using the 3,5mm adapterplug now. But batterylife with bluetooth was about the same when i used it.
[P3600 General] niobium:
After all the work yesterday, this morning the problem with not going to standby occured again!

But now I know more. It happened only after I added some sites to my RSS feedreader.

I use pRSSreader from David Andrs (http://pda.jasnapaka.com/prssr/)

Using the 'update settings' with 'automatically connect' the program tries to create a notification on the today screen if new messages arive.

This notification process is the problem. If I switch it of and soft-reset, the device works fine again.

I will mention this problem to David Andrs...

I hope this will help you as well.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Metaldroidiano:
Hi guys,

i'm here only to know the truth.

Is it possibile to create a camera mod (maybe using the porting of Note 2 camera) that asks which one gallery use for default?

Many of us using galaxy s3 asks for this mod. We'd like a (great) stock camera that can open after a shoot another gallery (like obviously quickpic).

i know the problem is the privacy with the lockscreen, or similar, but none of you great dev can help us????:crying: :crying: :crying:

thanks to everyone for this great forum.

I tried most of the custom roms but the problem is they can't see my SIM , it's always unknown ,so is there any solution for that .
[HTC One Max] bdiddled:
Was your phone ever able to see the SIM? Did you check to make sure the SIM card is in the phone? What carrier?
[HTC One Max] LiamAtkins90:
If it is an android bump (4.3 - 4.4, 4.4 - 5.0)

You have to flash the radio also.

Do you have your IMEI number in settings?

If you do have it, that is good news, if it is a generic 00777999xxxx that means it is corrupt and would require some software to write the code back to the handset.
[HTC One Max] jraz305:
I have some what simliar issues , except , i dont have roaming in settings any more , an x in the signal bars , i cant get any signal but it detect s the sim , but signal is unknown , well right more whem i get home
[HTC One Max] LiamAtkins90:
What device?

What android version?

Have you updated the OS lately? OTA or Manually?

Does it have "emergency calls only" or "no service" in the statusbar pulldown?

What does the settings, "device status" or something similar say?

It should have sim carrier, network type, IMEI & serial number?

Is IMEI intact or is it a generic one as mentioned above?

Is Serial Number intact or is it 00000000?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sizemore2000:
My son's AT&T S5 got stolen and my wife bought a US Cellular S5 off of Craigslist. My 1st thought was she got ripped off, but I took it in to US Cellular and they unlocked it for me. The phone doesn't have the option to switch to GSM network, so my AT&T Sim still doesn't work, but it doesn't say invalid Sim now. My question is this: is the modem GSM capable, but not listed? And if I root and flash another rom, will that enable the settings for GSM ?

I did notice the unlocked bootloader. I just rooted it very easily. Now if I can just get it to work on ATT.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
the unfortunate answer is no, CDMA devices do not work on GSM networks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sizemore2000:
Thank you sir. Guess I'll put this one up for sale for a Sprint, Verizon, or US Cellular customer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sakdroid:
Usually CDMA Phones wont work on GSM Network. But Verizon CDMA Phones does work on GSM too when unlocked as they have GSM Frequency.

I looked at Spec of US Cellular S5 and looks they don't have GSM Frequency. Its more like a strip down version and no GSM Frequency.

Here are the spec for

US Cellular

FREQUENCIES AND DATA TYPE

LTE: Bands 2/4/5/12/17; CDMA 1x/EVDO Rev.A: 800/1900MHz

Verizon S5

FREQUENCIES AND DATA TYPE

LTE: Bands 4/13; CDMA 1x/EVDO Rev.A: 800/1900MHz; GSM: 850/900/1800/1900MHz; HSPA+/UMTS: 850/900/1900/2100MHz

ATT

FREQUENCIES AND DATA TYPE

LTE: Bands 1/2/3/4/5/7/17; HSPA+/UMTS: 850/1900/2100MHz; GSM: 850/900/1800/1900MHz;
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
Verizon switched to GSM thats why there devices will ocasionally work as long as the freqs are the same (some arent)

they still also have CDMA/EVDO configs as well since their network is still supporting both once they complete the switch over (from what ive been told mid to late 2016) they will no longer support any CDMA devices.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] myphone12345:
Sorry to sound harsh but what you're saying is complete nonsense. Verizon did not (and is not planning on a) switch to GSM. They were, and still are a CDMA carrier.

The reason Verizon devices support GSM is so that their customers can roam in countries outside the US, some of which happen to use the same GSM frequencies as AT&T and T-Mobile do in the US (and therefore, by extension, support these two carriers domestically). And since all Verizon devices which include support for LTE are completely unlocked, in most instances you can take the phone and use it on AT&T or T-Mobile US. That said, when it comes to LTE specifically, these devices often do not have all of the LTE bands supported by T-Mobile and AT&T so on them they will often only work on GSM (2G) or UMTS (3G).

The reason the US Cellular variant won't work on AT&T or T-Mobile is because it looks like US Cellular didn't care about giving their customers the capability to roam internationally with their variant of the S5 - meaning they had the phone made in such a way that it doesn't support any GSM or UMTS bands at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
calm down dude, i'm only passing on information that was provided to me by the local verizon store manager and unless your a verizon employee im gonna go with what im told by a verizon employee
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] myphone12345:
I can tell you with 100% certainty that the person you talked to has no clue whatsoever (and Lord help Verizon if that is the level of technical understanding of their store managers :rolleyes:).

My suspicion as to where the confusion is coming from is that at some point in the future Verizon will stop putting CDMA radios in their devices and rely solely on VoLTE (voice over LTE) technology to provide voice services (currently most voice calls on Verizon are carried on their CDMA network). However, that certainly doesn't mean that they will be shutting off their CDMA service anytime in the foreseeable future .since they will still have a lot of legacy devices whose voice support will only be on CDMA. Nor does it mean that they are switching over to GSM, which is certainly not something they are planning on doing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
well like i said was info passed on by a verizon store manager so take that as you may im not a verizon customer nor will i be since they dont provide coverage where i need it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sizemore2000:
Thanks for the info. I ended up selling the phone on ebay and now the guy wants to send it back claiming it's only unlocked for us cellular. I told him it should work on any cdma network, but they might have to flash it on their network. Oh well, if all else fails, I can use it to download movies and stream to the TV! Lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sizemore2000:
I'll install Kodi on it and use it as a media center.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sd_N:

I'm just gonna LMAO to this reply. Lol. It's an old thread but I'm assuming you have done some research and realize your answer is wrong pertaining to Verizon and GSM. Have a great day.

Thanks for this.

This workaround fixed the TiBu restoration problem on a clean install of CM12.1. I only saw the "App not installed" error clue when I changed the restore method to the basic install method under preferences/troubleshooting. The odd thing is that my Note3 *does* have an external sdcard, so there shouldn't have been an issue, and get-install-location reported "0[auto]", but setting it to 1[internal] finally allowed the batch restore to finish without randomly hanging (on apps like "VNC Viewer" of all things). This problem only first popped up after lollipop fwiw.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] titanshadow:
Is there anyway, to remove all the idiotic extra sprint icons when writing the new lollipop version?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] yuppicide:
What icons? I don't have any.. maybe it's because I am on ViperROM or maybe it's because I use TWRP to uninstall all the Sprint apps?

Sprint Zone, Sprint Connections Optimizer, and one or two more.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] titanshadow:
NFC, GPS, and the annoying Sprint Spark icons. You said Viper ROM? I wonder if they support the HK edition.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] yuppicide:
I just checked.. I can hide boom/hk icon, nfc, Sprint GPS, GPS, and more. Here's the Rom thread.. it says all variants supported, but you can ask

As for all the other Sprint stuff I've installed it with Titanium Backup.. I mistakenly said TWRP in my previous post. Works great. I've been using ViperROM for awhile now. Great support and frequent updates.

[Raspberry Pi Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toyanucci:
Just an update. Connected a Bluetooth keyboard and that worked fine and gave the same evtest output saying something else was grabbing the input which would mean that's not the problem with the Amazon remote.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
I noticed the other day while Netflix was on there were frequent but very slight lags in video playback. I can't say it's dropping frames because I've seen what that looks like--best I can describe it is the video playback sort of goes into slow motion but only for a split second (happens maybe 1 to 3 times per minute)

At first I thought it was Netflix, notoriously problematic on aftv, but today I noticed it's happening on xbmc. The files are played from my local server.

My other aftv doesn't do this. It's running the same firmware except it's on WiFi while the one with playback issues is hardwired. I bring it up in case someone thinks it's a possible network issue and not aftv related. If so how would you go about troubleshooting? Different Ethernet cable? Or maybe this is software related...any feedback is good especially if you experience similar issues. Thanks.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] porkenhimer:
Ethernet is always better than wifi. Maybe its trying to cathup to the connection. Do this simple test, reboot and unhook the ethernet cable and try it with wifi and see if it still happpens. Netflix has that thing where they pay ISPs for faster connection so if it does not happen on wifi, I am guessing your ethernet connection is too good for Netflix. I know that sounds weird, but it happens.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wellersl:
How would Netflix know if you're connected by Ethernet or WiFi?
