[MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] how do i increase the in call mic volume? No one can hear me on the opposite side, I literally have to scream

What values should I tweak in the mixer paths?

I think this is what I have to tweak, but which one? Volume or digital volume?

Sound Recorder issue

Hello, so whenever I try to record a sound using Sound Recorder it doesn't really work (3gpp & wav formats), when I close the app, reopen it & try again it gives me "Internal application error. Microphone maybe in use" besides the audio gets really messed up afterwards. Any help would be appreciated.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
"Digital Volume" because "Volume" is already too high.

WAV doesn't work, that's a CM Sources bug :/

3GPP is working fine here, but quality is equal to AMR.
[Galaxy S 4 General] mmansori85:
I too do have problems using the Mic & recording apps, the stock recorder is really messed up sometimes (crashes & ...), works perfect generally though!

& when everything is working & recording, the result is nothing like before...the Audio is recorded in a really really low volume.

Any help would be greatly appreciated?.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Working on it.
[Galaxy S 4 General] yash1229:
I seem to be having the same issue, [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION]!

Just flashed the latest ROM over GearCM 12 with clean wipe & everything. I definitely think I have this problem.

Any way I can provide a logcat or something?
[Galaxy S 4 General] mukeshbaidwan:
can I use c-apps with this build?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
I do not recommend other gapps packages than recommended.

Sent using XDA One
[Galaxy S 4 General] rgshah3:
Can we dirty flash? Or is clean necessary?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Yes but...at your own risk ;)

No sound when calling someone

I have been using GearCM for a long time now. There's a issue that when i call someone, there is no sound i the earpiece or on loudspeaker and mic is also not working, but when someone calls me, everything is fine. Please help.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Sloth.M:
Enter the "Google Settings" app > Search & Now > Voice > "Ok Google" detection > make sure the "from any screen" toggle is OFF.

This fixed the problem for me.
[Galaxy S 4 General] TowersVault:
Ok, so I can't get a logcat because what's going on is a bit weird.

My phone's recently been getting warm whenever I use it (CPU is around 43'C), mainly where the earpiece is on the phone (the CPU sits further down as far as I know). I've tried scaling the CPU clock to 1000MHz via Synapse, but made no difference, and made sure a lot of my apps were fully closed, additionally I did a full reset once (on 20151101's build), and a clean install a second time, but no luck. Currently running Build 20151115, anyone experiencing the same and perhaps got a fix?

Edit: On idle, like literally locked on my desk, my CPU is around 32'C, room temperature is around 22'C.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
I'm not sure, but it could be an hardware failure :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S 4 General] ptahend:
A cpu temperature of around 33 deg at idle is kind of normal for me. When I browse Internet the radio is used and the device gets hot. The same for playing a game. Despite this I get through the day on my battery, unless I use it too much
[Galaxy S 4 General] TowersVault:
Hardware failure, great, just when I bought a brand new $40 battery. :crying:

Did some inspection however, the A7 cores keep jumping to 1200MHz whenever I touch the screen, don't think it's the digitizer connector though, as it sits on the side of the phone's motherboard, and not the top, the only thing I could find at the top that could make heat is the front facing camera. Will inspect a bit more, hopefully my phone's not on its way out.

---------- Post added at 08:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 PM ----------

Hmm ok, might just be because we have summer here, and room temperatures keep increasing, hopefully it isn't my phone dying.
[Galaxy S 4 General] NonXtreme:
From what I know, temp sensor on chipset are not made for overall accurate reading. It is there to prevent damage to chipset at critically high temp. So the reading is only get more accurate when temp approaching critical temp and less when temp is lower. So don't worry. Your hardware is fine.

And cpu jump to 1200mhz when touch is the stock kernel feature call QOS or something. You can control it if you use custom kernel like Voltaqe kernel (some old version) and Perseus kernel(only for kitkat 4.4 and lower)
[Galaxy S 4 General] TowersVault:
Ah ok cool, thanks for the info, might take a peak at Voltaqe anyway. Hopefully my phone doesn't die, third party repair technicians here aren't exactly trustworthy, and first party can force you to buy a new phone with the amount they quote.

Edit: Seems Voltaqe uses TW and not AOSP, gonna ride the heat issue out then and do some tweaking in the meanwhile.
[Galaxy S 4 General] ptahend:
This morning I started having a new problem. The device continually gives message "No APN specified on the device". If I go to settings there is a APN selected and it has data which seems correct. Restart does not cure this. I tried booting into recovery and wiping cache and dalvik but the problem remains.

Any ideas on this?
[Galaxy S 4 General] TowersVault:
Try to go to APN, tap the 3 dots in the top right hand corner, click Reset to default, maybe it just needs a reset.
[Galaxy S 4 General] zozoz13:
VoLTaqe kernel was made for AOSP too. But the dev has discontinued it. If you want it, just send PM to me.

Sorry for the Off topic.

Sent from my Galaxy S4
[Galaxy S 4 General] ptahend:
Tried the APN reset, worked for a while then the problem came back.

It is making the device un usable due to battery drain

Update 19/11/2015

Did a factory reset and reinstalled 20151115 ROM. Problem solved. Just shows that clean install is always best practise. My normal install for an updated version is to wipe Cache, Dalvik and system but this can lead to problems.
[Galaxy S 4 General] rahul.sahni06:
I just wanted to know about the camera quality....is it same as the touchwiz one?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Sloth.M:
In the latest changelog you say that you are now using the "proper" flashlight implementation, but now it's much slower than it used to be. Is there any technical reason for that? Is it just more stable that way? I also notice with this proper flashlight implementation, the light doesn't flicker anymore.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Because that's how it should work. Lollipop and newer use another flashlight implementation that calls camera library, while older versions (Kitkat and lower) use a sysfs path that could conflict with camera on newer versions.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Sloth.M:
Ah, ok. I'm no expert, but to me that sounds like it will improve camera stability. Anyways, thanks for the answer!
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Exactly :)

You're welcome.

Guys, I was told earlier that I could increase the in-call mic volume via synapse. But I am not able to find that option. Please guide me if you can!!

[Galaxy S 4 General] Noname3771:

[Galaxy S 4 General] heichi13:
Wait a minute - just realised you asked for the mic and not the earpiece. My bad. It can't be done thru Synapse.
[Galaxy S 4 General] invincible authority:
Thanks bud. I found a way to increase the volume by editing the mixer_paths.xml
[Galaxy S 4 General] kapazo:
i have tha same problem but only when im using handsfree.

can you help me increase mic volume
[Galaxy S 4 General] ferchnando:
where are you alberto?

He's in Italy.

Leaving aside the joke, look at GitHub (https://github.com/Alberto96?tab=activity) you can see that he is working on more devices ... he also worked in the version of CM13, only that for now has some bugs that prevent it from launching a stable version https://github.com/GearCM/android_d...mmit/27e0ab345e68e84c9a211cf360e5e38695468a5e

I was able to use voip(whatsapp calls, messenger video calls, ) calls on official cm12.1 nightly but there is no sound issue in ur builds Why?
[Galaxy S 4 General] mabukduren:
Why I cant use WhatsApp call ?:confused:
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Official CM12.1 has the same bug. Maybe you're using an old version or another CM12.1 based ROM. (Compare Known Bugs paragraph)

Disabling user accounts/guest

Hey!

I installed this rom yesterday. Before I use samsung stock 5.0.1, one thing I noticed is that annoying user icon on the top right when locked or when I swipe down the menu, tried to Google how to remove it, but I failed.

So, is there a way to remove the blue user icon from the top right? Also I tried to disable guest account by a guide that said to modify the settings.db/global/guest_user_enabled to 0 but it was already 0 and guest is still working, so tried to set to 1 restart set to 0 restart, still there. How to disable it?

Thank you
[Galaxy S 4 General] yash1229:
Use EagleGet for Chrome.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Sloth.M:
I'm not sure if this has been asked before, but would it be possible for you to replace Synapse with Kernel Adiutor? Because I think it looks better and it seems to have access to most of the kernel features. I also find it easier to use.

Here's the link if you want to take a look. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grarak.kerneladiutor

Fair answer I guess.

[Galaxy S 4 General] rgshah3:
And I just clean flashed 15/11

[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
You can choose two download servers. It is impossible that both servers aren't working correctly.
[Galaxy S 4 General] rgshah3:
Both weren't working on Chrome for some reason! Tried each 3 times

Then I downloaded Firefox and it downloaded in the first go

Don't know why it wasn't downloading in Chrome, speed just dropped to 0

why the rom doent start? (latest version) and why OTA UPDATES doesnt work? thank you
[Galaxy S 4 General] :
maybe its the problem with the ota updater cuz i clean flash and it was okay everything works :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
OTA Updater needs to be fixed with latest renderserver changes.

Latest build is actually available only using the first post link.
[Galaxy S 4 General] invincible authority:
Can't download latest version from any server. Tried chrome and firefox. The download fails after a few minutes!!
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Renderserver is just under light maintenance. Try again later.
[Galaxy S 4 General] gp545:
But there's a drawback as a kernel developer, to add certain options like full display calibration control we have to submit and wait for Kernel Adiutor Dev to include support for those in next version!

I'm not sure whether this changed or not, read the Dev response, on some forum of XDA, can't remember entire details of this conversation..
[Galaxy S 4 General] invincible authority:
Tried just now. Still the same problem, download keeps failing!
[Galaxy S 4 General] gp545:
Use system downloader and browser to download from Renderserver.. Try EU server.. It always worked fine for me..

Actually this post doesn't belong to the thread, GearCM Development thread nor here i.e Discussion of GearCM.. [Discussion] Xposed for Lollipop thread is right one talk about Xposed related ones.Anyway;

You've to download latest version of installer and flashable zip from the thread Rovo89 started, which is located here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811

Right file is: xposed-v78-sdk22-arm.zip

Downloading on crappy internet link

Hi all,

I'm trying to download this ROM using FDM but all that RenderServer gives me is a 651 byte file called 'download'.

Is there any trick to getting this to download? What was mentioned earlier about FDM didn't work for me.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Working fine here with IDM, EU Server. (on a crappy Italian ADSL2+ connection)
[Galaxy S 4 General] rgshah3:
How are you using IDM ?

Whenever I paste the link, it downloads a Web page (.htm file)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
Remember to install Chrome IDM Plugin. (if you're using Google Chrome)

Automatic Paste works differently.

Just search on Google, you'll find many instructions that will help you.

Let's stay on topic.

[MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] Have you removed "First Run Camera Install Fix" from Renderserver? Link on GearCM thread shows error..
[Galaxy S 4 General] Alberto96:
You'll need to search it manually on RenderServer. (Links have been changed.). Also, it isn't required on latest build.
[Galaxy S 4 General] gp545:
searched on your folder, couldn't find it.. I'm on latest build and camera didn't click pic even after I pressed click button, so thought it's needed.. Rebooted device and now it's working fine. May be I stressed camera too much :D

Battery drained by 26% overnight (about 7 hours). Is that normal? I'm on the latest build

Edit: I changed to Airplane mode after charging to 100%, battery came down by only 2% in 9 hours!! I'm guessing it's the mobile network. Should I try the Indian modem?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Illuvitar:
I was initially using FDM (and had problems), but then it worked fine for me in IDM.

I used IE because I didn't want to restart my chrome session. Make sure you open the download link afresh - sometimes the download tokens can time out.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Sloth.M:
So, after doing a fresh install of the latest build trusted face works way more reliably, and Google play services crashes less. Battery life is good even without amplify running.

I used titanium backup to reinstall all of my apps without problems.

So yeah, fresh installs are good. If you're having any issues do a fresh install.
[Galaxy S 4 General] invincible authority:

[Galaxy S 4 General] Blank00:
Hi, I downloaded this rom a week ago and everything is running smoothly. I would usually get 3 hours and 30 min of SOT but 3 days ago I started to experience a problem. I noticed that my battery drained really fast and I started to get 1 hour and 30 min of SOT, I found out that Cell Standby time and Phone Idle was always running. I would usually leave my phone charged at 100% before I went to sleep but by overnight it went from 100% to 70% because Cell Standby time was always running. Is there anyway I can keep Cell Standby time and Phone idle from running?
[Galaxy S 4 General] SalimPS:
I'm facing a weird bug for a long time with GearCM.. when I turn on Wifi tethering and connect my pc to my phone..

there is a weird delay and stuttering and sometimes random disconnects If you use it for online games for example which is not the case with stock rom.. can you have a look into this ?

What i am sure about is:

a quick data turn off and on fix it for a short time the the bug is back..

it usually happens when my phone use the internet too at the same time..

sometimes phone disconnects and the H+ icon is still there but no connection..

There is no dropping in ping while the stuttering happens..

it causes downloads to fail sometimes..

that's all what I've noticed.. and none of these bugs happen in Stock rom or Stock based roms.
