Voice to text

I flashed the latest (5/2/2015) ROM plus the zero version of slim gapps. After booting I installed some other apps (gmail, speedtest, touchdown email, google keyboard, ...). I cannot figure out how to get the microphone (voice recognition) on my keyboards. The option is grayed out in google keyboards settings. I have looked and looked and been unable to find an answer. Please help.

Basically I/O scheduler handles the order ( schedule ) that input ( write ) and output ( read ) requests to cpu are handled. The default setting is probably best. Changing it may make your phone act squirrelly, but it shouldn't hurt anything. Need more info, than google is your friend.

Disappearing app

I don't know whether this is a ROM problem, an app problem, or an incompatibility between the two. I have used World Clock app for a month or so without problem. After installing Candy5 5/2/2015, World Clock will stay open only about a minute before disappearing from my screen. I obtained a logcat (although I don't know whether I used the right command=line options) and pasted it on pastebin. The problem persists through a reboot of Candy5. Can someone look at the logcat? (I'm pasting the pastebin link below; did I do it the right way?)

Well done

Since updating from the 4/22/2015 version to the 5/2/2015 version, this ROM is running much better. With 4/22 I had freeze-ups twice a day. I have been running the 5/2 for a couple of days without freeze-ups. I had put I/O to noop but now have returned it to its default value and all seems OK. With about 24 hours since my last restart, everything seems responsive.

(I still would ask that someone review my logcat and try to answer the question about World Clock disappearing [post 168].)

Button lights - minor annoyance

5/2/2015 version of ROM

Using built-in dialer, if I dial a call and put phone to my face, the screen goes off as desired, but the four bottom button lights stay on forever. If I wait five seconds after dialing, the button lights time out and go off. Then if I put the phone to my face, the button lights stay off. If I then take the phone away from my face, the screen and lights come back on (as they should). Then if I put the phone back to my face, without waiting five seconds for the lights to go off, the screen goes off but the lights stay on. In other words, the button lights do not change once I put the phone to my face. Backlight is set for five seconds. Notification light is turned off in Display and Lights.

Sluggish waking up with iffy data connection

Candy5.1.1 5/2/2015 ROM; about 40 hours since last reboot.

Very sluggish swiping off lock screen. Managed to open Messaging and send a short text, but just barely. System was very sluggish and almost unusable for next few minutes. Then got better but something still not quite right (intermittent sluggishness) for next several hours. Going to go ahead and reboot.

Is it possible that the sluggishness might result from system trying to get find a good data connection. Today this occurred when I was leaving a building with wifi, with both wifi and mobile data enabled? This is the second time I have seen sluggishness when waking up while in iffy data situations. The previous time was on the previous version (4/28?) of the ROM.

Logcat has lots of stuff that looks like errors to me. Hopefully they mean something. Saw first symptom about 1729 or 1730 hours in pastebin: http://pastebin.com/rS6JXpBF

Logcats

Hope it helps. I'm a novice, having been trying various ROMs for a little less than a year. I find this one (Candy5.1.1) smoother than most and am kind of amazed at how well it makes the 3+ year-old Skyrocket run. Question: I am new to logcats. The one I posted came from "adb logcat -v time > logcat.txt". Is the "-v time" the best option to get information useful to you guys who dig through this stuff to diagnose ROMs?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
I normally use "-v long" but time is fine. Honestly, ANY logcat is better than none... [emoji57]

Charging glitch

While plugged into A/C overnight, battery charged but then began discharging. Same cord and plug I have used for a long time. Graph is attached. Prior to plugging in to charge, I had done a backup of Candy (20150502), installed Slim for a trial, and then restored the Candy backup (wiped the usual stuff - system, data, dalvik, cache). Battery was at 90% when I plugged it in about 2250 hours. It charged to 100% in 30 minutes or so, like normal. Later (estimating 0500 hours, from the graph), it started discharging and was at 90% when I got up (0645 or so). I had not touched it overnight. After seeing it at 90%, I unplugged and replugged charger. It charged back to 100% in 30 minutes.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] NoSpamDan:
Honestly, I have no clue about that. Seems like a hardware issue. Can you duplicate it when desired?

I'd try a battery pull myself, and put a fresh charge on the battery.

[P3600 General] Cyrus Kourosh:
Hello,

Is it possible to affect permanently the side scroll Jog/Wheel to volume function (up/down) instead of the classical menu scrolling function?

Unfortunately, this button (side wheel) does not appear in the key parameters menu.

Is there any registry value to activate it, or any software to install?

PS. This function exist by default in HTC Excalibur/s610 for example, where one can affect the side Jog to menu navigation/scrolling or just to volume control.

Thanks in advance,

Cyrus.
[P3600 General] rjefferis:
The big question is, why the hell would you want to change a full wheel control into a useless jog volume control. How often do you change the volume on your phone?

No offence but i just cannot understand why you would want to.

On my phone i map the side button to vibra switch when held down so you can change between ring and vibrate.
[P3600 General] El_Mariachi:
Personal preference
[P3600 General] Cyrus Kourosh:
The answer can be as easy and simple as the one of El_Mariachi :D

Let’s say that I realised this need when using TomTom in the car...

As my Trinity sound is always low (1st case or just vibrate) on classical use. When using the Trinity in the car and starting TomTom... The sound is really low and practically not audible (always forgot to increase it before)

And believe me that when driving and trying to switch to today screen and then clicking the sound icon and increasing the sound just by your fingers is a highly not recommended thing to do :D
[P3600 General] Loboman:
Get some software with profile switching ability.

PocketMAX PhoneAlarm

SPB Phone Suite
[P3600 General] Jazza:
I use CoPilot as an alternative to TomTom and CP maps the jog wheel to volume control whilst it is running. Very useful but more importantly it demonstrates that it can be done.
[P3600 General] Cyrus Kourosh:
@ Loboman & Jazza: Thanks for the helpful informations.

As an information: In TomTom ,the side wheel also controls the volume (but only the TomTom volume). The main volume is always the one of the phone. Meening taht if the phone sound is low... Even if the TomTom volume is at the maximum, the resulting volume is low.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FoxyDrew:
Edit: PROBLEM SOLVED! However I'll keep this up just in case anyone runs into a similar issue, I'll go ahead and quote the post that brought my tablet to life. As simple as it may be, it helped!

Okay, so in case I'm missing something, I'll keep it quick and say my tablet (WiFI version) wont boot to the system, and no button combo will boot it into the bootloader. It goes straight to the nvidia screen no matter what, and won't get past the boot animation.

In case that doesn't cover it, and more info is needed, I'll give the complete rundown of all that happened.

I just got my tablet a few days ago, however I immedietly unlocked the bootloader, and rooted it, and was fine with that for a while. Eventually I got sick of Lollipop due to lack of support for some Xposed modules and other apps that didn't support 5.0. So I decided to boot into recovery and flash THIS CarbonROM. But it didn't boot past the CarbonROM logo, so I forced a shutdown and booted into recovery (vol down + power) and figured I had to flash the KitKat OTA, then the ROM. So I flashed THIS OTA onto my tablet in CWM, then after booting I booted back into CWM and flashed CarbonROM. It booted just fine. I then went into ES File Explorer and deleted the system apps I didn't want (calender, the stock launcher, etc.) and it worked fine. I then booted back into CWM to clear cache and Dalvik Cache, to clean up any app data that might have been left behind. After booting it stayed on the "Android is upgrading" screen for almost 20 minutes. So I decided to hard reboot it. After doing that, I'm where I am now. The tablet won't boot past the CarbonROM logo, and although I can manually power it down, no matter what I do, I can't boot it into bootloader. I have gotten to the bootloader from a powered off state plenty of times before, in fact it's my preferred method of doing so. But now it skips straight to the Nvidia screen, followed by the CarbonROM screen, and never boots.

Also, I had just flashed the ROM, and had never enabled adb debugging.

Any possible solution would be greatly appreciated, as like I said I just bought the tablet days ago.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ailima:
Try connecting it to your pc, boot it up, and try running "adb reboot revovery" after it's been running for a bit
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FoxyDrew:
I seem to get a "error: device offline" message when I try that.

I have used adb and fastboot before this issue so I know my drivers and adb files are just fine :/

Edit: When I unplug the usb from the tablet it makes the low battery noise. I think it's booted to the system but stuck at the CarbonROM logo for some reason. I did delete the stock launcher without installing a new one...

Edit: Since I had just flashed the ROM, I had not yet gone into developer options and enabled adb debugging. I had only done it before I flashed the ROM.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjim:
Hold the power button until it turns off. After it turns off, press and hold volume down, then BRIEFLY press the power button while still holding volume down.

You can't really hold them together sometimes, I don't know why.

Hold volume down, press power and release, while holding volume down. Should go into bootloader then.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Napster449:
So I recently bought a Note 2 and found out that it was bricked. Essentially what happens is, when I boot it up, the screen is black at first and the white and black lines appear, just like the old school TV static interference but they are lines, instead of dots. I can boot into download mode and that is it. When in download mode, it says this in the top left:

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: GT-N7100

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO

CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL

SYSTEM STATUS: CUSTOM

KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 0

RP SWREV: *IT DOESNT SAY ANYTHING HERE.*

I tried to flash a stock ROM and Odin is saying "There is no PIT Partition." So I found the PIT file for it and tried to flash it. I get the error "Get PIT for mapping." I have tried full ROMs with bootloaders etc and they havent worked. I gives me an error and just stays stuck. I can try that again though, if need be. I have tried to flash a recovery and that seems to make the "ODIN Downloader" crash. I have tried multiple USB slots as well as cables, I am running W8, with the Samsung Drivers installed. I have been using multiple versions of ODIN but mostly ODIN 3.07.

I have taken this from a recent thread to save time. It is exactly the same as my phone, instead a different IMEI and S/N, obviously. And it says Made by Samsung, instead of "Made in Korea by Samsung," if that makes any difference.

[Galaxy S6 General] Yathani:
Lets talk about the MicroSD first

Like everyone I love to have a phone with MicroSD feature. It makes it easier to swap between my phones as well as to transfer data to my PC. I myself won't mind spending lots of money on a fast microSD card but I have yet to find one that is both FAST and LARGE in capacity. On my Note 4, i'm using Sandisk Extreme and my fastest bench mark test was 70mb Read and 39 Write. Now these numbers are decent but In my opinion MicroSD cards are not keeping up with the speed of phones these days which is cause bottleneck issue and is one of the reasons behind all the lag that people complain about.

Now with the Universal Flash Storage (UFS) 2.0 which has 350Mb/s Read and 150Mb/s, you can rest assure it will not cause any lag from viewing pictures and videos as well as swapping from app to app. Not to mention you can always plug in your OTG cable with flash usb and do all your backups there titanium backup or simply copying your data there which is what i'm doing currently.

Samsung has ultra fast 128GB UFS 2.0 ready for smartphones

As for the Battery,

While having a removable battery is a plus, from my personal experience I have yet to use it when I want too. I have extra battery and charger for my Note 4 but i always find my self plugging it in rather than taking the cover off and restart my phone. Now with all the new features to charge wirelessily and fastcharge 2.0, I don't think anyone would have any issue. Iphone users as well as other brands from nexus 5,6 and htc didn't complain about their battery then why should we when are ahead of the game in many ways?

With all the features we are getting on the GS6, I think i can easily sacrifice on these too.
[Galaxy S6 General] lawtq:
I generally agree with you. But after 8 months or so my phone batteries are noticeably less able to hold a charge as much. My note 3 (loved that phone) went from 8-9 hours screen on time to not even 6 hours. Big difference. Changed the bettery and back to normal. This is what I want to be able to do especially if I keep the phone 2 years!

Most people are complaining about choice being taken away
[Galaxy S6 General] Yathani:
Most batteries have a life cycle of 500 charges. But then having non removable back doesn't mean the battery is not replaceable. You can always heat up the back with air dryer and pull the back off and i'm sure you will see many people doing a tutorial on that but we have to wait and see if it easy to do so or hard.
[Galaxy S6 General] Poetique:
There's just no good reason to remove microSD support and no real argument to support the decision. Literally every reason you mentioned for supporting the decision could have been done without microSD support being removed. It's that simple. Use of microSD was an -option- that nobody would have been forced to use. Removal of options is rarely a good thing, and this isn't one of those rare exceptions.

Lack of a removable battery has only two good sides in most any situation, and one of them was left out of the picture here. Non-removable battery brings two benefits, and two benefits only.

1. Unibody design (Usually means slimmer, which at this point, it's highly debatable whether or not that's even a good thing)

2. Waterproofing (Omitted)

Personally, the 128GB of (hopefully) UFS will be enough for me and I STILL disagree with the decision. Why? Again, removal of options is rarely a good thing, and this isn't one of those cases. I can take or leave the removable battery. Simple fact of the matter is that I havn't had nor used a device where I couldn't change the battery when I felt like it regardless of whether or not it being removable was part of a spec sheet or not. With that said, I'm not a daily battery swapper, so I certainly see why people are concerned there.

Regardless, what should have happened is that there should have been a 128GB UFS option WITH support for a microSD utilizing up to 128GBs, period. I suspect that their reasoning (other than the obvious incredibly mild cost savings) will be for the sake of trying to do the impossible and "fix stupid." By fixing stupid, I mean you'll always have people who won't be able to comprehend that all flash storage isn't just any ole flash storage, and will whine and complain that their $10 Wal-mart microSD isn't as fast as the on-board storage. Which will lead to them saying the device is slow when in actuality they're just too "slow" to realize what the issue is. While I understand the concept thanks to my personal field of expertise, I've already realized the truth in that matter:

When you try to fix stupid, you piss off smart, and stupid stays stupid; just in some other manner of being stupid.

And of course there's the greed aspect; wherein all of a sudden, a would-be 32GB buyer becomes a 64GB buyer and a 64GB buyer becomes a 128GB buyer due to the lack of a microSD slot.
[Galaxy S6 General] hella356:
For how I use my SD cards (and it seems that I'm far from alone in this), the speed makes no real difference at all. I keep my cards loaded up with my most commonly used FLAC files and rarely make any changes to them. On my S4 I see no difference in opening music or video files compared to the internal storage. Copying new files to the phone via USB is certainly slower on SD, but that's the only situation where the speed difference is even noticeable.

For the OS and apps, the built-in storage speed is the only way to fly, but having more onboard storage is always better for me, even if it's relatively slow SD added to 128GB of super fast UFS. I've used OTG and it's completely annoying and clunky having wires & USB drives hanging off the phone, and the OTG route isn't nearly as compact as carrying an extra MicroSD card (or three).

Battery is less of an issue for me in everyday use, but I travel a lot for work and having spare internal batteries means I can sit in airports and on planes without having to have an external device hanging off of my phone to keep it running. What if you are running low on battery AND the files you need are on OTG? I don't think you can do both at the same time, something that would never be a problem on a phone with SD and removable battery.
[Galaxy S6 General] SirWise23:
As I mentioned in another tread, I don't think the battery issue is a big deal any more just because those portable battery chargers are cheaper than an extra battery. I just put the phone in my pocket with one of those and I am charged up in no time. I haven't bought a spare battery since my SGS3 for this reason.

As far as the SD card does though, I HATE that it's gone. It's not even a space issue, it's a functionality issue. I think 64gig is more than enough for me. I haven't filled up my 64gig card. However, when I go from one phone to another, I just put my microsd card in and I'm done. If my phone breaks, gets wet, doesn't turn on any more... I didn't lose anything, my titanium backup is on my SD card, I pull that out and put it into my replacement phone, and I'm good to go.

The process now to get a new phone up and running is now much harder and the risk of losing everything if your phone breaks is much higher. Yes, yes... there is a cloud. But without unlimited data, I don't want to back up to my cloud... plus I don't want my pictures being uploaded to the cloud anyway.
[Galaxy S6 General] vortexmak:
The entire basis for your argument is stupid.

External cards are mostly used for storing media files where speed is not a concern
