Does anybody know how to turn off the annoying SMS sent audio notification?. Even with the phone set to silent or sound off setting it still generates a jingle when sending SMS messages.

Have trawled the web for a solutin to this problem and had a look through the registry but to no avail.

Kinda makes it impossible to answer text messages when in meetings or when trying to be discrete.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] kernelguy:
Well, there is a registry tweak to turn off notifications altogether. If you want the visual notification alone, this would not help.

Hello everyone,

the last lollipop update soft bricked my phone, so now i am trying to recover it... but i am new to flashing, rooting, etc , and consequently struggling a bit. ( i went through the sony pc companion repair steps before i got to here.

Main issue : i downloaded flashtool from here: ://github.com/Androxyde/Flashtool and it gave me a Java error

"No JVM could be found on your system

Please define EXEJ JAVA HOME to point it to an installed 32 bit JDK or JRE"

So i went and installed the latest Java JRE , restarted my computer , and still get the same error. What should i do?

running windows 7

im sure i will have more questions, but thanks in advance!

hello guys I'm new in the forum:) ... Can you tell me what the best rom for s4 mini based on lollipop:)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hi_there_:
hi, I was just about to start the same thread.

I had 2 or 3 custom roms installed but I had some bluetooth and camera issues so I went back to stock, but it's so bulky I actually started to consider buying the new Moto G.

Can you recommend some fast and stable rom? It doesn't matter if it's 4.4, 5.0 or whatever. I just want it extra smooth and stable. What is the most stable and lightweight custom rom for 9195?

I´m using Mokee (http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-mini/orig-development/5-1-1-rom-mokee-opensource-project-t3109249) as my daily driver and its working flawlessly
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HSPDEV:
My setup

I'm on the release branch of serranoltexx and only update on new releases (called snapshots there). I was on nightly before and it was actually pretty stable, but found it was not worth the time to update it all the time.

I've however flashed a custom kernel, "f4ktion_lp_2.3.1-eur_lte", and I'm overclocking it to 2GHz on demand (didn't quite feel for maxing it out, be careful). I'm using SetCPU for this. I can't remember but I think I needed "PerformanceControl-2.2.6.apk" to unlock the overclocking tho.

Other than that I'm using the standard Wakelock detector and BetterBatteryStats to keep battery life good. (I know this is not the ROM, just saying as you sound a little green).

That's about it. Remember to keep good NANDroid backups on your SD card each time you install a new kernel / ROM, or update your existing one (before hand). I also like to, when making a clean install, keeping a NANDroid of my clean install with all my apps installed and configured.

WHAT I DON'T GET HOWEVER, is that you are saying you are having stability issues? Mine is running as a dream. (i9195 bought in Denmark, unlocked, 1 year old max, the old dual core version).

I'm on serranoltexx 12.1 (Android 5.1) and it's working beautifully. The only thing I see is gallery errors when trying to add an image from the gallery to a contact. I've seen this on a lot of ROM's, it's weird.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hi_there_:
hi,

I installed the original CM12.1 yesterday and I'm really happy for now so BIG THANK U, I suppose I was just too extra careful. Things got much improved since I last had CM installed on my mini; R4GM1X - just install the newest stable 12.1 and you'll be as happy as I am now.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] komi_9:
I have an HTC One M8, and I installed Cyanogenmod 12.1 (I followed their guide and did HTCdev Unlock). For a little while, LTE was working fine with my phone, but then about a couple of weeks ago, my LTE connection stopped working, and it hasn't worked since. So ultimately that's the problem I'm looking to solve.

I had backed up my HTC factory ROM and restored that to see if LTE would work there. That's when I found that it wants me to do an update, but the update reboots me into TWRP and doesn't work. My thought is that to solve this, I will need to apply the update somehow, and if that's the case, then I could use some help figuring out how to do that. (I'm trying to run "Update Profile".)

If you have other ideas of what I can do to fix LTE, then I'm open to hearing them as well.

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
You need to install stock recovery to enable the update to install.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] komi_9:
Thanks for the response. I'm trying to work out from your signature links (thanks for those!) how to do that.

I found the link to the Stock Recoveries. In there, I found a bunch of different versions. The version numbers seemed to match my version-main: 2.16.651.4, so I should use Stock_2.16.651.4_recovery.img, correct?

And I'm back on CM now, so should I restore the stock before doing this? It seems so, since I don't know if the other recovery will be able to restore it.

So I will:

1) restore the stock ROM

2) flash the stock recovery

3) boot up and do the system update

4) update Profile and PRF (I'm hoping this fixes the LTE issue)

5) put TWRP back on

6) restore CM

Does this sound right? And to put TWRP back on, do I just do the same fastboot flash recovery command, but with the TWRP file?

Thanks so much for the help!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
Yup sounds correct except being you are on 2.16 there will be a few updates you will need to do to get current.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] komi_9:
I went through the process, and each step went fine (you were right about having to update a few times), but LTE is still not working in CM when I switched back over. It is working on the Stock ROM side of things; that's how I did my OTA update. (At least it says LTE in the status bar, so I assume that's what it's using, as opposed to just defaulting to LTE but switching to 3G when LTE is not present.)

Any other suggestions that I should try? Could this be a Cyanogenmod issue? Should I ask in their forums?

And another question if I need to go through this again in the future. The stock software is now 4.(something). This doesn't match any of the Stock recovery version numbers in that zip file. Do I need to go locate the proper recovery, or can I use the latest (3.30.651.2)? (And what does the HK suffix on some of the recoveries mean?)

Thanks for the help again!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
I don't use CM so can't answer but yeah your best bet would be to ask in their forum.

If you took all the update to make you current you should have the latest stock recovery. You can always pull the stock recovery from the latest Full Firmware zip.

HK = Harmon Kardon Edition
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] komi_9:
Do you use a custom ROM? Or do you have a suggestion of a different one? I'd like to experiment with something else to see if this is specific to CM.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] komi_9:
I just remembered that I didn't do a full wipe. Could this be the problem? I was scared that it would wipe my personal data. If I've done a backup to an SD card, can I restore that and get back to my original set up with a full wipe?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
Yes that might be the problem. A full wipe shouldn't wipe anything important.

If you have a backup and you need to use it you will be back to the ROM you made the backup of.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
V7.4.2 is not the latest version...try the latest and see if it makes a difference. Usually status 7 error means the updater script is out of date (if I remember correctly).

When I do a full wipe I choose Advance Wipe then check the boxes next to cache/dal cache/data/system. From my experience wiping in twrp and then wiping again in Aroma usually causes problems. I prefer the twrp method myself.

I also put anything I'm going to flash on the EXT sdcard.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] komi_9:
The 7.4.3 version is only available as a patch to 7.4.2 as far as I can tell. The full download is only available in 7.4.2. Or at least that's all I see.

Anyway, the point is moot now since I seem to have gotten LTE working. I went into APN settings and the option CDMA 0 was selected. Any of the other options pop me over to the Sprint LTE Internet option, but that one will just sit there and not work. I'm not quite sure how I got stuck on that APN. But oh well, since it's working now.

I really appreciate all the help! One day I might embark on trying out different ROMs again, but for now I'm happy that CM is working out OK.
[HTC One A9] nicolepark:
I think it's got a cute camera, but all around it just... sucks. The battery is even worse than my Nexus 5, and the phone is just ugly, especially in the front, in my opinion.
[HTC One A9] ThePhoneGeek:
Actually I like the design much better than the M9, not too worried about the battery, and it seems HTC has finally overcome it's greatest flaw in its camera.
[HTC One A9] optionalmgrr.la:
Wish it has a dual SIM function (it's important in SE Asia and developing countries) and waterproof.

Otherwise, it's pretty nice.
[HTC One A9] Xenosis:
I just can't believe they are still plastering a fugly logo on the front taking up valuable screen real-estate. I'll never buy another HTC as long as they keep doing that. At the very least they got rid of the "hardware" buttons... except then they replaced it with a larger hardware button copying samsung and apple. The waste of space is just terrible. Nexus 6 has slightly more than half an inch in top/bottom bezeling combined while these things look like they are rocking 1.5 inches or more!

Not to mention it's looks like a sad copy attempt at newer samsung/iphone styles - hardly unique at all. I don't think the copy-cat ploy is going to work for the third guy doing it. I'd bet money that this is yet another flop.

[HTC One A9] bennaye:
I don't think the design is necessarily a bad thing. It may be emulating Apple, but it's still metal and it will appeal to quite a number of people, if not for the design then for the build quality alone. With that being said, the battery is most likely gonna drag the phone down, unless they can do what the Moto G is doing with their battery, which by the way is larger than the A9.

Also, I hope there are capacitative back and recent apps buttons to complement the physical home button. Otherwise, the home button kinda becomes redundant, even with a fingerprint scanner, because you have the full set of controls on the screen right above the home button.
[HTC One A9] gregag:
Using HTC 8 years now but couldn't find new model for me. Like the design but inside phone is not what you expecting from phones these days.

Just to hang for time that HTC makes serious phone I switched to OnePlus 2.
[HTC One A9] Alaioby79:
HTC A9

Very bad design, I think they need to change thier concept designer and CEO then they try to find another inspiration like One M7 & 8 and I think they will not be able to do that until they think out of Apple hater Box
[HTC One A9] Xenosis:
Bad? nah. Sad? I think so. Who needs more of the same thing? It's because they are failing that they decided to copy what they thought would be a safe bet. Personally I'm not even too bothered by the small battery as I pretty much always keep my phones around 50% and up as wherever I am there is usually a place to charge them. Fast charging will make that even more feasible. (Probably their logic)

In my opinion, the fingerprint scanner should be on the back of every phone, like many are already doing, not the front. Or even on the side makes more sense. It should be in a place that is easy to access with only one hand. The bottom of the front of the phone makes it so you have to support it with the other hand while swiping to do it comfortably.

My point is that any capacitive/hardware buttons that can be done in software are redundant and they are especially atrocious when taking up screen real estate. When done in software, the screen can be 1/3 inch to 1/2 inch larger.

When I got my One m7 way back, I thought it was awesome and compared to what was out there, it was. That is until other phones came out that were the same size but had smaller bezels, didn't waste space with a giant logo and capacitive buttons. A clear successor in design IMO.

Maybe it's just me but since everyone can do nice specs, a decision on a phone comes down to smaller things and for me, screen size/quality is one of the most important. The way the front of the phone looks is important, and how well utilized the space is is important. HTC has always done a horrible job utilizing space well so far as I've seen.
[HTC One A9] MsEvyLynch:
I hate it. The design is fine but why? Don't copy Apple just to get a few new users to switch. Stick with the M8 style design with some differences. Bezeless? The specs are not that great. They even removed boomsound wtf. (unless it is considered a mid range phone).

They need to spend some money and get ultra specs. They need a 4k screen, ultra boomsound speakers that are really loud with a pop out speaker like the old HTC Surround while keeping it a thin phone, Snapdragon 820 with 2 gh and 3-4 gigs of ram, a 25 ultra pixel rear camera with Nikon DLSR sensors to bring the ultimate in picture taking and making it the best camera phone ever even better than some stand alones, 6 ultra pixel front facing cam, 3500 MaH battery. Now if they did that, I'd buy that in a heart beat or are these features too unrealistic?

HTC needs to realize people care about what is written on the specs sheet next to the phone in a phone store. People see low numbers (even though the processor may optimize it to make the low numbers feel like higer for example battery MaH) they will go to another phone that has higher numbers on the specs sheet.
[HTC One A9] John3:16Godislove:
I just really hope they change their mind about their design philosophy to me its not a good change, but I applaud the hardware and the fact they have marshmellow running on it already
[HTC One A9] Nirmal1984:
I don't agree with you on this, HTC hasn't copied from Apple. But it is other way round.
[HTC One A9] ThePhoneGeek:
This is the design that HTC has pioneered and continued to evolve. There is a reason why iPhones and Samsung devices now look like they do, because HTC has a superior design. They always seem to fall short when it comes to specs and marketing.
[HTC One A9] bennaye:
My point was that since HTC already went with a physical home button at the front which doubles as a fingerprint scanner, they might as well include the other capacitive buttons. Having just one button on the front seems kinda pointless. But I do agree that the fingerprint sensor should be on the side or on the back.
[HTC One A9] herzig.grant:
Dude, first of all, anything that has to do with Nikon sucks. Second of all, complaining like that just makes you look bad.
[HTC One A9] MsEvyLynch:
I'm not complaining, I'm just stating what HTC needs to do to get back where they need to be. Going this route is just making it worse for them.
[HTC One A9] twolfekc:
Honestly I think it is a dumb a** phone and it seems like HTC is in self destruct mode
[HTC One A9] herzig.grant:
Yeah you have a point.
[HTC One A9] vang2k:
I've used HTC phones basically for almost every upgrade I had. I found their build and quality to always be top notch. What I liked about HTC is that you can almost always unlock the bootloader and go the custom rom route and the boomsound speakers. The One A9 ditched everything to try to get more people to like HTC. What I want is a HTC phone with top notch specs 5.1-5.5" screen, I could care less about finger print scanning but sure whynot, a nice shooter with OIS and a competitive price point and I think they should be able to get back. Sense skin on the HTC is what makes the experience unique.
[HTC One A9] amarentine:
nice especially the design though I'm not impressed with its built and other stuff. sticking with the N5 ndysf
[HTC One A9] techlogik:
Best thing about HTC these days is still Sense interface. Stock android, Samsung etc...OS/look/feel is garbage. I remember when I first got the Nexus, the one with the led trackball..years ago. I almost dumped that thing in 1 day until I found the ability to get an updated Rom with better apps/design and look/feel of the phone. HTC was a saving grace. Get rid of Blinkfeed, keep the clean/polished apps of Sense and interface...and put some real serious hardware in the phone.

Only good thing about this is going to be marshmellow/developers and the ability to have all carriers supported and unlocking out of the box in the US. Otherwise, from the forums, you can see how support of the M9 and later variants have decreased over the years.

Don't know. Maybe sell the M9 and try the A9...I don't do much with my phone, and the little I do, I really need a better polished interface that Apple/MS have done well for years versus the Android.

Shoot, been playing with Candy 5 on my M9 which is pretty close to Marshmellow and standard Android, what a piece of garbage interface/apps they still produce Google....pretty pathetic considering.

Unfortunately, I'm on Verizon for the next year...likely jump ship in 14 months and go back to something like ATT/Cricket and universal/GSM phones. Good thing my wife/kids have iPhones that will work on any network already. Just need to dump my VZW M9 and move on with my life...gheez. The mobile/cell phone business is really a joke with many manufacturers, such a cluster these days and so many options, most Android.
[HTC One A9] hgoldner:
The handset is top notch. The screen is lively and bright, even in daylight. Glad to see Amoled back. Have not experienced battery issues (I see a few folks complaining about the 2160 mAh battery). Very speedy, as speedy as my M9, unlike the Desires that were demonstrably slower. Excellent camera hardware. Single significant difference between A9 and M9 is: (1) A9 has fingerprint scanner; (2) M9 has stereo speakers. But, oh, by the sound with headphones in the A9 is quite an experience.

Finally, totally sick of the Apple v. HTC thing. Steve Jobs flat out admitted that Apple steals from lots of of entities. Heck, everyone steals from everyone else in technology --- been going on for years. HTC was first with the design, but, yeah, it looks a little like an iphone 6. An iphone 6 looks like an HTC A9. Who cares? I have zero interest in iOS, so if a phone looks a little like an Iphone but works better on Android, it's not like it even enters into the decision making process.

Just waiting for the complaining about the bezel to start.....
