[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VIZ3N:
Hello people,

My mother just gave me her Galaxy S4 I9500 and when i put my SIM card it wont connect to network. Im from Argentina, previously the phone was from Personal network but i have Claro. I checked with GalaxSim Unlock and its telling me that is network unlocked. I've tried lots of modems but i cannot get it to connect to the network. I also tried to connect via mobile networks but the i click Claro AR it says "Unable ot connect, try later" and the other two carrier says that " You SIM car does not allow this network"

One strage thing is that when i put a Movistar SIM it connects, but with the other two doesnt. My imei number is correct but its not the same as the sticker below the battery.

Can someone help me please? :)

The person who had my number before me was apparently bad at even attempting to manage privacy, I get spam calls and texts for them pretty regularly. I had one scammer in particular get so angry with me that he hung up on me after 20 minutes of hassling me. Whatever group he worked with proceeded to harass me with over 100 calls in the next three days. It's gone back to a more "normal" level of spam but, lately, I'm getting shortlinks to payday loan sites.

I know how to report the SMS to my carrier, the FTC, and the FCC. I can report the shortlink to the shortening service and it immediately gets taken down.

The problem is that my phone has already "followed" the link and it shows up as a click. I can tell because the info page for the shortlink always shows a click from Chrome on Android.

I don't know whether to pin this on the SMS app or the phone itself. I'm using Messenger and I'd prefer not to switch but I suppose I'm willing if it's the only option.

I'm using a Nexus 5X with stock Android.

OK Guys, I admit it, I got bored so I decided to make it now rather than wait till I got back home.

anyhow... basically the program will put your device into bootloader mode with a new bootloader I've created - it's loaded by SSPL and will not be flashed to the device, so if you're running 2.10.Olipro, you're fine to continue doing so.

it then allows you to read your EEPROM off and to read the MAC address and then write it. - if your EEPROM is corrupt, it will detect this and first make sure it actually dumped OK by checking the first bytes are your CID. if they are, it will replace the EEPROM area for the WLAN with a default one and allow you to edit it.

the final stage is flashing it back which I am doing via plink into it's StdIn rather than using mtty.

you don't have to worry about Activesync, the program will automatically disable and re-enable it for you.

I have a Sprint LG G3 ls990. It does not turn on at all. When I push the power button it gives one quick vibrate then nothing. When i hold power and vol + it gives 2 green led flashes then nothing. When i plug it into my pc it recognizes it and i am able to view pictures on it and it shows up in device manager under Portable Devices. I am using this guide (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2785089) and using the TOT method to try and flash stock firmware to it. The part i am stuck at is the phone does not show up under Ports (COM & LPT). Picture below. The error under COM1 says: Windows cannot determine the settings for this device (Code 34). I updated my bios and I do not have an option in bios to enable any ports. Any suggestions would help, thanks.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samizdat-press:
Note 4 running CM12. Chose to encrypt. It started the process and continued for about 30 min or so. Then a password screen comes up stating "Enter your password to decrypt the device". I did not ever tell it what password I wanted. I also don't have a screenlock password as I never used it. I do not know what password to use to unlock it now, I've tried all my usual passwords but nothing.

Is there some place it pulls the password from that I am unaware of?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigE:
So... searched pretty much a month now for a solution, so don't flame me if I missed it .. :p

About 2 months with OPT, and pretty much a working phone on Oxygen 2.1.2 but it is unparallel to my OPO when it comes to OS with Cyanogen, in terms of beauty and speed. Yes, my OPO with less power under the hood works better than my OPT.

Tries Exodus ROM (CM12.1) and it is the one I like, but.. my BT doing all sort of funny stuff.. It turn itself off (symbol disappears from top of the phone) at random times. Events that kill BT are a phone call, deep sleep, and probably other events.

Rebooting the phone fixes it for up to 10 minutes. But obviously I am not going to boot the phone every time I need to use BT. I have a Moto 360 , a car audio , a headset, and a radar detector in the car connecting to my phone over BT. So pretty much I need BT on and up all day long...

What I discovered is if I clear data from Bluetooth share (setting->apps->all-> Bluetooth Share) my BT comes alive for a while again, so something in CM12.1 is messing it up. Obviously , I can't clear data every 10 minutes either... Not manually, anyways..

Just think every time I am getting to the car i need to clear data to hook the phone to the car. As soon as I do, the connection will stay on until I am done driving... and then drops again when BT in the car turns of, in few minutes. Really annoying.

The main problem is the Moto 360. It became a useless smart watch without the BT on the phone. Running it on wi-fi just kills the watch's battery, so that is not an option either...

Anyone else is in the same situation, or better, found a work around ? Somehow i can't seem to find anyone else with this issue.

Thanks,

BigE
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Peterle:
Yes I have the same BT problem on my op2 with OOS 2.1.2 in car.

Nearly unusable audio (only phone function connects), audio (if it sometime works) don't stop during incoming call, phone book is not probably synced...

Impossible to fix it on my own! Oneplus must do that.

I hope with marshmallow will something fixed.

Hey guys!

I'm trying to figure out the steps to flash a ROM onto my galaxy s6 edge. I had a nexus 5 before and that was much easier to do with but with this new phone I don't know where to begin. I don't care if it does trip Knox, since I have insurance through the carrier. So any and all help will be appreciated. Also, I want to have pure android ( just like my nexus 5 ) on my galaxy.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strife89:
I, for one, am getting frustrated.

The CM 12.1 nightlies for the XT907 have been deteriorating in stability/"bootability" since August, despite a very good run since their introduction in January up through at least July. The September 26 build is what finally broke my RAZR M (with spontaneous crashes and reboots) enough to drive me back to CM 11.

I don't know when it happened, but something broke the builds even further since then. I tried the Nov. 16 and Nov. 21 builds (both with and without an Open Gapps package, and with a completely wiped internal storage in the Nov. 21 test), and in all attempts the first boot would crash to a black screen after the first "app optimization" - and then crash and reboot again in the middle of the boot animation when it retried.

The RAZR M has missed all three CM 12.X snapshot builds thus far, and to my knowledge there's no evidence that it will ever be stabilized enough for a snapshot - let alone get CM 13 builds when they eventually arrive. This bothers me, but what really has my blood boiling is this: as far as I know, there has been no word whatsoever from the device maintainer(s) on the status of the builds or why the device got no snapshots. I don't even feel sure that someone is (actively) maintaining the device at all.

Look, I know this is all supported by developers' unpaid spare time. I don't mean to put that down. (And I'd gladly start rolling my own builds and trying to fix what's wrong, but I lack two major things: the hardware (you try building AOSP or CM on a single-core Celeron with 2 GB of RAM) and the know-how.) But I feel like we (as RAZR M owners) are being left in limbo, with builds that haven't worked decently well in months, no recent snapshot to fall back on, and no word on the future of the device.

("So get a new phone and stop complaining, asshole." If you were thinking that, here's what I'm thinking: I was going to until I learned that Verizon's gonna tack on another damn monthly fee if I renew my contract to get a new subsidized phone. It's not yet in my budget to shrug that off, and the signals around here are not yet good enough to jump ship for another carrier.)

So, developers: if the device is being phased out or won't be supported, okay. Fine. Please tell us, and I will attempt to move on. If honest support is still on the table (especially CM 13), please tell us, even if it will be a while before us users can see the results.

Please don't leave us hanging.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HaggisIV:
I'm not completely sure, but I believe the maintainer of Blisspop (which is a fork of CM) stated that the razr m would be getting cm13 eventually. As for the instability problems, yeah they're annoying but you don't have to update. Your best option is to find the last build that works, and stick with it. This device is getting pretty old now, so it isn't unusual for the developer support to start disappearing.

As for your budgeting issue, if you're in the U.S. I just thought it would be helpful to let you know that you actually save money if you aren't on a contract with Verizon. If your contract has already run out you should go to the nearest verizon store and they'll apply a $15 dollar discount for every line that isn't contracted.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATTACK:
The only CM dev for the Razr M was dhacker, and he stopped supporting the Razr HD/M a long time ago, he moved on to the Nexus 6.

Other then dhacker, I know that kabladan was supporting CM for the Razr HD, but I don't know if he's still around or willing to support the Razr M.

I know I haven't been much help, but at this point there probably won't be much support for the Razr M anymore. As the device get older people move on.

Have you tried a Verizon MVNO like Page Plus?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aggressivepixels:
I thought those reboots when finishing the app optimization were my fault somehow, And now I know nobody is maintaining this device, great. It's annoying, cause I can't actually upgrade, the economic situation in my country is really, really bad. I would try to maintain this device, but I'm on the school, and then I'll start the University, so I will not have enough free time, and also, my computer sucks and my internet is incredibly slow. I hope someone starts maintaining this device, or that magically a box with a nexus appears in the door of my house.

---------- Post added at 01:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:01 AM ----------

BTW, is Blisspop more stable than pure CM? I'm just getting tired of wipe cache, fix permissions or flash the whole ROM over and over again...
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strife89:
Ah, but there's the rub. Each nightly is only kept for a week or two, and then it's gone. The last build I had good luck with was made almost three months ago.

Good news, then. My fingers are crossed that the builds will be at least as usable as the early CM 12.1 ones were (or at least, as I remember them). Maybe it'll be a reasonable last stand.

Well, crud. I know that someone is building msm8960 CM11 builds with a CM12 kernel (works on the RAZR M), but I doubt anyone would go out of their way to dual-support when it involves a separate build.

Yeah, I know. It also depends on the phone's popularity (despite having no official support and being older than the RAZR M, the Galaxy Nexus is STILL getting unofficial AOSP/CM builds from multiple developers, including experimental AOSP builds for Android 6.0). I guess the phone fell off the radar too quickly.

Not yet. I'm actually on a relative's family plan, which is a little cheaper for me overall. I'd been planning for a while now to renew my contract and get a subsidized 2014 Moto X, but then yesterday I learned of Verizon's freaking absurd determination to push people off contracts ...

Maybe I'll just save up and buy something decent off Swappa. It's gonna take time no matter what.

I keep hoping against hope that maybe we could convince someone to put in enough work for a last hurrah - just one snapshot or snapshot-quality build (even an AOSP one). But it may never happen.

I tried the October 7 build for about a week, but it kept spontaneously rebooting on me; that was the real last straw that led me to running CM 11. Maybe they fixed that in more recent builds, but I wouldn't get my hopes up.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aggressivepixels:
The last build that "worked" for me is really old, like 4 months old, and with "worked" I mean booting without problems, right now every nightly boots whenever it wants, and if it boots I get some nice ANR when I open apps like Keep, Look of Disapproval, WhatsApp, etc... I would love a full working AOSP build, unfortunately I can't actually build it with 2gb of ram, a 2ghz dual core processor and a 120gb hard drive...
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beeewell:
Have you tried Exodus ??

Since I ran into some instability with BlissPop about a month ago, I've tried and have been using Exodus. I keep up with the (every other) nightlies and the ROM is performing well and has been pretty stable for me. It's less customizable and doesn't have nearly as many built-in features as BlissPop, but I'm happy with how it performs. For more info, see link below:

Thanks man, I'll try it, I hope I can use Keep without wait 10 seconds till the SystemUI reboots.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strife89:
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it last night, but alas: not even eight hours in, I got a dreaded spontaneous reboot (I pulled the phone out of my pocket to send a message, and found it in the middle of the boot animation). I had the exact same apps installed (save for the Gapps package, of course; I used a Micro Open Gapps package) as my CM 11 installation, which has yet to reboot in that way.

Attached is the output of /proc/last_kmsg, which I dumped to the microSD card before restoring my CM 11 image.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aggressivepixels:
Thats weird, I'll stick with it, its working perfectly fine for me, I only experienced a reboot when started recording the screen, but that happened with CM anyway. I haven't got a single SystemUI reboot, ANR exceptions or anything. I'll check your log to see if I find something, but you should try formatting your sd card (if you have one on it).
