[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PuffDaddy_d:
I had the exact same experience this summer - got so jealous of my wife having signal that I joined AT&T. I was happy for about 3 months, getting signal everywhere before I realized that the data speeds are pretty mediocre. Plus, their prices for capped data are ridiculous! It cost me an additional $45 when I went over my cap by 3 gigs. I'm tempted to switch back now, but T-mobile jacked up their pricing for unlimited data since I left. 2 lines with Unlimited Data used to be $100. Now it's $140. Not sure if I can justify that price increase, though it's still a better deal than AT&T's limited data plans. I live in a major city, so AT&T and T-Mobile both have excellent coverage here. I spend 98% of my time here, so I should be satisfied if I can't get a signal the other 2% of the time, right?

[Nexus 6P Accessories] The_Middleman:
Hey everyone - first post here (hi!). My Nexus 6P is experiencing a major issue with three separate pairs of headphones with inline controls - basically, it seems to stop registering double-click-to-skip-track after the device enters 'sleep.' The functionality works perfectly when the device is awake, or (I think) kept awake by something running in the background (like a download - not sure about this part). However, I can perfectly reproduce an issue where, while the device is locked and the screen is off, the Nexus will stop registering double-click-to-skip-track on an inline remote after a certain interval. I CAN press the button once to pause/play, which I'm thinking is making the device 'wake up' in the background -- after that, it will begin registering double-click-to-skip-track actions again for a little bit. This is incredibly aggravating to me, since I'm a chronic song-skipper and prefer not using bluetooth headphones.

The headphones I've tested are:

- Sony 'Extra Bass' earbuds

- Official Project Fi 'branching' earbuds

- A store brand pair I'm surprised still works

... all of which worked perfectly with the Nexus 6. I've seen similar reports on /r/Nexus6P and on XDA about people having big issues with headphone and inline remote recognition, but this case in particular is interesting to me because it seems to span across headphone models.

So I'm curious, two questions really --

(1) Is anyone else able to reproduce this issue?

(2) Most importantly, if you're using a pair of in-ear headphones that absolutely do not experience this issue, what are they?!
[Nexus 6P Accessories] savvacon:
Just saw your post. Same issue here, but have you had any luck with any headphones?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] The_Middleman:
Just got my RMA in and tried a couple more pairs of headphones (including Beats) with both phones. No dice. I think it's a software issue - if there ARE headphones that work, they're not common...
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jeremyclarkson:
my headphones do not work either. My xiaomi pistons made for Android will not even play audio on them. Worked fine on my nexus 5. My amazon premium earbuds however can play audio, but vol down button does not work. The vol up and pause seems to work though.

edit:

the amazon ones work if my screen is off, and only when its off.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] The_Middleman:
Just a heads up, neither Google nor Huawei support are aware of any issues with inline buttons not working. I had to struggle to convince either party that there was an issue, and they continued to press me into (another) RMA. Definitely call and let them know.

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevenyc7:
Good morning ALL,

5 Days ago i started receiving this text: 9485: itson:cAwASAQY3MjMyMDgCCAAAAUoudB8 every hour. From what i hear it is related to Sprint's "Itson" service which is used in billing. That is all i know. I am not sure what caused it. I just did a factory reset and its still going on.

I have blocked "9485" on sprint.com but that did not stop the messages. I do not use hangouts nor do i use GV. Any help would be much appreciated. I have tried everything including a factory reset.

-Steve
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magnum_Enforcer:
Some more information would be helpful, such as what device you're using. ItsOn is a system for prepaid Sprint customers. Many developers have removed it from their ROM's. There are some recovery flashable scripts available to remove ItsOn from devices, also.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevenyc7:
I am on a Sprint Galaxy Note5. Not a prepaid phone. Phone is not rooted.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orcam:
Have you tried calling sprint about it?
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevenyc7:
Yes i have called sprint who told me that they could not find anything wrong with my account. They told me to block the number and that itson is not a service of sprint.

Blocking the number did not help.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Orcam:
How about you go into settings, apps, all apps, then find your messaging app and clear data and cache. Then find your phone app and do the same. Reboot and see how you go.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevenyc7:
I will try that but i did a factory reset which did not help.

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevenyc7:
Guys thanks for trying to resolve this. I believe i found the issue.

I sold my old galaxy S5 a few days prior to the start of this nightmare.

It appears that when my old phone was switched to a new number, the "NAI" and "MSID" did not update properly. When that happens it can result in various text messages. I saw this somewhere online.

I called sprint and asked to change my "NAI". They did and it has been a few hours since the last txt. So hopefully they do not return.

Thanks again.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OCDaniel:
I'm currently trying to install the eXistenZ rom for this device. It says to flash official Sony's 4.1.2 12.0.A.2.254 with flashtool, which I did. Then to root using DoomLord's method. I tried that and it seemed to have worked but I looked in the command log and there were errors where it failed to write to directories because they were read only. And yes, I did enable installation from unknown sources in the settings. I rooted using towelroot and it worked, but when i tried to install recoveries (CWM_SP_4.4.1) it starts doing it's thing and then gives me "error: device not found"

If anyone could offer me some advice that would be great. I just want to install this ROM and be done with it :crying::crying::crying:

[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Néocray:
Hello,

it seems that Flashfire is able to flash ROMs on locked bootloader devices. However, all my attempts with Touchwiz-based ROMs on my i537 failed miserably.

So is there actually some ROMs usable with Flashfire?

Or Safestrap will remain the only way?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Néocray:
Bump.

It seems the device is getting slowly deprecated… The only relevant ROM I found was the Golden Eye, but I didn't succed to flash it and it looks like the camera is not working anyway.

Is there even a fully functional custom lollipop ROM for i537?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devo7v:
There are only 2 ROMs that I know of that are being actively developed for the i537 and unfortunately other than CM 12, they're the only ROMs being actively developed for the i9295 as well.

Super WizCyan

SiCK As HELL ROM

Both ROMs have specific versions for the i537 and the i9295 so make sure you're using the right one. If you can't get them to install I suggesting posting in the ROM threads. Good luck.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Néocray:
Thanks a lot! Somehow I completely missed these 2 ROMs in my search.

Which one would you advise to use?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Néocray:
As to let you know, I choose Super WizCyan. It's so good that I'm sad it hasn't appeared earlier so I would have use it when the i537 was my main device!

Now the device is going into hands of a member of my family, and I'm happy it's with this ROM.

Thanks again!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] wiseguyy:
Well here is an interesting tidbit, I just got my Nexus 6P as a device for driving for Lyft and after booting the Nexus with the Project FI Sim card to register it on the network I realized I didn't need two phones to drive for two providers so I dropped my T-Mo sim card in the nexus 6P as as expected she fired right up on the T-Mo network and I had no where to keep the G-FI Sim card, out of fear of losing it i popped into my Note 5. Well I shut down the N-5 and kept playing with the Nexus 6P. In the morning I tuned on the N-5 to swap and copy files and the T-Mo update rolled in with full 4g LTE % bars. So it seems our Note 5 will definitely run on the Google FI network at full speed FYI. See Upper Left Corner of Note 5 http:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] AKW:
That's pretty interesting. Do you think it has to do with Project Fi using the Tmo network? If that's the case, then theoretically any unlocked Tmo phone should run on Fi
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] wiseguyy:
Well I think that's a stretch but our phone has almost every existing band which could also be a factor I'm sure. I have yet to drive all around Los Angeles or out of the county or state of CA but I will report my findings as I do travel. But none the less its a great discovery for sure.

Please hit thanks if I've helped ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] NotATreoFan:
It would be interesting to see if it can actually switch between the different networks through. I know that you need Google Connectivity Services installed on a Fi device for proper functionality, and it does show as compatible with the Note 5. But if we don't have Sprint bands in our phone, then you'd be SOL as soon as you got out of T-Mobile or trusted WiFi coverage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] wiseguyy:
True, I haven't yet sat down and looked at Sprints cdma bands but I bet they are in this device.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] wifiguru:
The Fi SIM will only work on T-Mobile. It will NOT work on Sprint, in this configuration.

The Nexus's ESNs are whitelisted with Sprint, I believe.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] wiseguyy:
That hypothesis of not working on Sprint would seem highly improbable as long as a phone is unlocked and the device and sim card are not carrier specific the device should work as my phone is now as long ...again as the phone has the carrier bands to run on that network...as stated here on the Nexus 5: http://www.idigitaltimes.com/project-fi-nexus-5-how-bypass-googles-nexus-6-exclusivity-453947 . I have turned off WIFI calling and called my office...see here: http://www.androidheadlines.com/2015/06/project-fi-works-nexus-6-xda-begs-differ.html
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] wifiguru:
There's no hypothesis here, it is proven fact.

Sprint has a whitelist of IMEIs/ESN.

Put a Fi sim in a non-Fi phone, and it will not connect to Sprint -- no matter what you try to do.

Put a Fi sim in an unlocked Sprint device, and I bet it will work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] wiseguyy:
How does Sprint tell the difference from device to device? Do you think Sprint had all the Nexus 6 IMEI's that exist or were made released to them so they could specifically either admit or omit them?? Show me the FACT my phone is blacklisted? Where are you getting your information can you provide some links to relevant content?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] NotATreoFan:
Another issue with Sprint devices is that they still do not rely solely on the SIM for programming. When Verizon made the switch to LTE, all programming follows their SIM as you change phones. But with Sprint, pulling a SIM leaves you with a working device, just no LTE. So that is likely why it won't automatically jump to their network.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] wiseguyy:
This is an excerpt from a different experience than wifiguru is stating here although it appears it worked at startup and seemed to from what the user stated failed:

I only signed up to reply back to this comment ...

Even if there was a work around for it, Apple would probably make a new update to lock the phones into reading only the new Apple sim.

Actually - I started searching today to see if anyone else had tried this yet, and while I didn't search too hard - the lack of replies on this thread might tell me something.

I got my Nexus 6 yesterday. I like the phone, but the service ... still not sure if I'm going to keep it. The voice quality sounds somewhat compressed and it is difficult to hear people sometimes.

However, I was bored at work today - or kind of bored - and decided to put the Project Fi SIM in my iPhone 6 (Verizon)

I was expecting it to tell me that the SIM card wasn't approved for use in this device, but to my surprise it actually connected to Sprint and I had LTE. So, I found out my iPhone is unlocked (w00t).

I tried to make a call, and I heard a blip (like a fraction of a fraction of a second of a voice), a few seconds of silence, and then the generic cannot complete this call (Probably because the device isn't provisioned for use on the Sprint Network).

I restarted the phone, and when I restarted it - it connected to T-Mobile.

So I tried to make a call, and it worked - it went through

So, I dug around in the settings on my iPhone, and a menu called "Carrier" showed up on the main screen, and when I opened it it said "Automatically Manage Networks" or something to that effect.

I turned that option off, and it scanned for about a minute and came back with a list of Mobile Networks:

T-Mobile

Sprint

Verizon

AT&T

Metro PCS

This quote is exactly what I just said. Did you read the post?

"At the end of the Day - T-Mobile is the ONLY one that connected and still connected"
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] wiseguyy:
Are we talking about the same thing here the author said "My theory with why Sprint connected for 1 time (and why T-Mobile connected and disconnected)) ..he did say "My Theory" and that was (iPhone 6 (Verizon) and also said

" T-Mobile connected and disconnected". Now I understand you are seeing this but he does plainly say " T-Mobile connected and disconnected" but I can tell you my phone is 1. Still connected and I have made over 10 calls and it has stayed connected all day so this would have to alter the authors "Theory" as he himself stated the term.

When the dust settles and the smoke clears and at the end of the day the author of your facts.. used the terminology "Theory"..hence me using the term "Hypothesis" now I realize you may not like that but that is the way it is until actual further testing is done and as of this point my phone has not been disconnected from the FI network which contradicts what the authors "Theory" stated.

(wifiguru) I am not here to have a urination match with you because I am here stating the the experience I have had at a personal real level and what I have stated is 100% factual and not simply what another author has stated as theory. I want to further explore what this could mean for this Galaxy Note 5 device the bands it internally carries and what possible benefits can come from that endeavor.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] wiseguyy:
From what another post stated as theory his phone connected and then failed but I am still 100% active on the T-Mo Network with full blown LTE 5 bars so I need to try and test this out in some for or fashion.

I have been using my Google Fi SIM in unlocked 920T for months in Miami. Been traveling across country and just started monitoring what networks I'm using. Download app called Fi Info and you can monitor via widget the network and also force it to use Sprint. Haven't tried US cellular yet. I'm in Ohio now and it's working fine. Will see how it works when I land in Seattle.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhonatann9892:
Hi XDA. I'm looking for help here, because i have't found anything like i need in many researches that i made. I have a qualcomm based phone that is comercialized only in my country; it's based on ZTE parts but it is sold over a brand called Vtelca.

There's litteraly any official way to flash this phone neither than an official firmware. The only thing that one can find are custom roms that are made by local coockers, based on system dumps of functional phones. There's a port of CWM that one can install in this phone over ADB. One can be able to flash CWM when the phone is operative, but if the phone has a soft brick, one can just do anything.

Theres no fastboot in this device, so one can't flash images over there, but there is a way to connect the phone that mounts all of its partitions (litteraly all of them, including the recovery one). Only linux can obviously read all of this partitions because of the filesystems, and here is my question:

Is there a way to write an image into a partition?

My theory is that if i know which of the partitions corresponds to android recovery, i 'should' be able to write the recovery image into it. Right?

Thank you in advance, even if there's no way to do this. :eek:

This is my use case that probably occurs 25% of the time.

I'm using an unrooted fully stock device and have the Google Nexus 9 Case - MoKo Ultra Slim Lightweight Smart-shell Stand Cover Case.

On a typical night I turn on the flashlight through the quick pull down menu, close the cover and use the flashlight to find my way to bed after turning off all the lights.

About 25% of the time, when I goto turn off the flashlight (again from the quick pull down menu), it doesn't work and I cannot get the flashlight to turn off unless I power down the device. Also, the flashlight can take anywhere from 2 - 10 seconds to turn off AFTER the screen goes black from shutting down.

Has anyone else experienced this issue or does anyone know of a root cause or work around ?
[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kline:
Did you ever find a solution here? I just started experiencing this on both of my stock, not rooted WiFi N9s. Exact same scenario. Flashlight on to navigate to bed and then it refuses to turn off and stays on a few seconds after the screen goes black during shutdown.

I thought I caused my own problem because it only appeared after I dirty flashed the factory image to go from 6.0.0 to 6.0.1 but from your post it sounds like it has existed a lot longer.

I found that someone has already opened this as an issue on the AOSP tracker a few hours before I first started digging into this. Will be submitting the requested debug info on both my devices after I get home from work today.

------------------------------------------------

Hello everyone,

First of all, sorry for my English and thanks in advance.

I recently bought a Moto x XT1060 (Verizon), unlocked bootloader with Sunshine, installed TWRP and CM 12.1

Everything went fine for 2 days, LTE and calls without problems, but suddenly i wasn't able to make calls anymore (LTE still working) so i decided to flash a modem through fastboot and i did, but now the device does not recognize the SIM card at all and, in phone status, MEID and IMEI shows 0. (i think i screw up with the process or the file) so, how can i recover from this state? don't know mi IMEI....

Some useful (i think) information: Im in Argentina, using Movistar. i believe we use 850-1900 mhz

thanks again.

best regards
