[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sourbear:
Did a search and didn't see this problem discussed...

My Moto X Pure has great audio volume by itself through its own speakers, until...

My problems arise after turning on bluetooth, connecting to something such as my car's radio or my Vizio bluetooth sound bar, listening to music a little bit or even a while and then turning off bluetooth and just using my phone normally. When I return to using my phone normally, my audio is so low. I can barely hear any notifications, lock/unlock sounds, music, etc. All volume sliders are still turned all the way up but still, low audio.

Again, this only happens after I've used bluetooth audio, stopped using it and returned to regular phone speaker operation.

The only fix I've found, and it's not a fix obviously, is to reboot the phone. Audio is back to normal, loud after the reboot. But then connect it via bluetooth to something and play music, stop, turn off bluetooth, the audio is once again verrrryyyyy low even though all volume sliders are all the way up.

Anyone else having this problem?

Android 6.0.0 here.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickster_uk:
Hi,

I've experienced a number of performance and stability issues on my SM-N910F in the last few months and after a number of attempted fixes and workarounds, I was left with the prospect of a factory reset. I was a little reluctant to do this as I would've lost a lot of app/game data.

I decided to look into rooting as that would at least allow me to take some app backups so in the event of a full reset, I could at least restore any saved data/progress.

Rooting was a breeze and after taking some backups, I've started thinking about tweaking cpu/ram in order to improve performance. If it doesn't work out, no probs as I can just reinstall stock or a custom rom and start again in the knowledge that I can restore my backed up data if need be. Kernel Adiutor looks good but seems too advanced for me. I'd rather something with pre-configured profiles that I can try out. I had a look at Root Booster which ticks some boxes but requires money to unlock some profiles.

Can someone suggest any other apps that can do what I would like please?

Are there any guides to read that will make me a little more comfortable using more advanced apps?

Is there anything else I can try to improve performance now I have a rooted device?

I'm using Nova Launcher which is an improvement on TW but any other suggestions would be cool.

Also, what custom roms are recommended? Any pros and cons to consider from using them? How easy is it to create my own cfw?

Thanks for any help :)

I just picked up my SM-G935T and have found the settings which enables CallRecorder to operate flawlessly from the line, and not the mic.

I've posted about this over in the CallRecorder thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66232332&postcount=5105.

I'll repost the settings I'm using, below. Let me know if they work for you.

Device -

Samsung Galaxy 7 Edge (T-Mobile - SM-G935T)

Recording Method - Standard API

Standard API settings:

Audio source - Voice call uplink + downlink

Recording format - WAV
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and ] DylanTheVillian:
I hadn't even thought to try.. Thanks!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and ] Biker1:
Anytime ;)

I've been using CR for years and was disappointed to read that there was no success recording from the line with the Samsung 7 Edge. Was one of the reasons for rethinking whether to purchase the device. I figured if it ain't working now, perhaps I'll find settings that work and/or Skvalex will hopefully find a solution as his customer support is excellent.

I purchased the S7 Edge and installed CR and initially the results were the same as I have read for everyone else; recording through the mic. I started trying different settings and I was like, Wow!, this is great when these settings worked. I tried it several times to make sure it wasn't a fluke.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and ] DylanTheVillian:
Well, thanks to you it automatically prompted me to use the settings you posted above. Skvalex is a wonderful dev and very very supportive!!

I've owned the app for over 4 years now and it is constantly updated and supported... I can't say i know of any other (non google) apps that have been around and supported that long!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and ] Biker1:
Excellent!

I've been in contact with Skvalex for the past couple of weeks regarding CR compatibility with the S7 Edge. I immediately notified him of my findings. He is one of the best supportive developers out there. I've been trouble shooting with him over the years regarding logcats, etc., and it's always a pleasure to communicate with him. Glad to see he incorporated the changes so quickly. This will make many people happy :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and ] DylanTheVillian:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and ] Alpha Geek:
I did notice that random intermittent calls are not recorded or even showing up in the call recording logs. I think it could be because I do not have root. (nobody has root with the 935T yet tmk) I haven't isolated what is in common with the calls that are being skipped though.. I have triple checked all the settings. making sure that it is set for all calls I/B and O/B and no filtering, etc... Perhaps when a caller calls inbound and the screen was locked it may not have permissions to run? I have made it device admin. any one else experience this? but other than this, yes, flawless. excellent work!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and ] Biker1:
May or may not be related, but I was experiencing similar symptoms, although the calls would show in the CallRecorder recording list. I couldn't figure it out for a short while. The CR active recording icon would show and the call would show in the CallRecorder list, but with 0:00 recorded.

The cause of this issue was that I would have Smart Voice Recorder active which conflicted with CR recording the conversation. I use SVR often and have to be aware if it's active.

CallRecorder has been working flawlessly on my SM-G935T ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and ] kappatau808:
using default settings or did you change some? it works for me but the volume is too low when i play recordings back
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and ] dragon-son:
I'm not getting anything recorded. Still trying to play with settings.

----

Tried using posted settings, not working for me. Could you double check settings? I tried playing around with the settings and most I could get was voice through my phone. Couldn't make outgoing calls but could get calls. Will try to play with settings more tomorrow, apparently it's frowned upon to be calling my family at 10pm, but would like to know where to start.

Alright I got it working great now.

Had to do some manual configuration but everything is recording properly and clearly now.

Took some screenshots of my settings. Hope this helps others.

On the Voice call uplink & downlink setting, I had the other party say I was cutting out on them. In other words, my voice was clipping. After troubleshooting, I attributed this to Voice uplink, which is the channel my voice goes over.

I changed my settings to -

Standard API

Main

Audio source

Voice communications*

* this is the setting I changed.

I had a slight issue which Skvalex found a solution for, and mentioned that he would be changing this to be the default for the Samsung Galaxy S7 & S7 Edge.

I dont know if it happen with another game because this is the only game i play.

The game works perfectly on my old Note 5 (lollipop) but very laggy on my new S7 . It work good for about 5 beginning minnutes then fps drop very bad . The device only waming a bit so i guess its not about the temperature. Anybody have this problem and know any solution ?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] stormlv:
There's a thread here about this: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s7/help/3d-games-performance-issues-t3338882 which I think might apply to you too.

Basically the game service and gamepad service that Samsung installed on the new S7 impact the performance by quite a bit.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] mannequin:
no, GameService and GamepadService have nothing to do with it's performance (outside the screen dimming). there's something else at play here. No Limits doesn't even run at the correct resolution and settings (it runs with the lowest settings possible + doesn't properly detect multitouch) compared to older devices with Lollipop. it's probably a combination of events: Google / Samsung introduced something that effects all gaming performance with 6.x devices (and many users confirmed that) AND possible lack of optimization for SD820.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] moiezomar:
Well i can confirm this as im playing nfs no limits on the snap dragon and exynos variants right now. The SD is MUCH more smoother and i did not know what lag is till i picked up the exynos. Basically both work fine up till the screensapace is filled with rain, reflection and more moving texture effects, i.e when speeding through a more urban landscape as opposed to inside tunnels or that industrial backroads type parts that come up. The snapdragon really shines here making gameplay smooth where as the exynos just drops. Used package disabler extensively on both phones and they're on the same network with airplane mode on (for cellular, turned wifi on after turning airplane on)

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ludacrisvp:
I have my rooted FTV Stick connected to an HDMI 4 port switch with an HDCP compliant HDMI to VGA adapter to use with an older HDTV that I have which supports various resolutions.

480p / 720p / 1080i for TV resolutions and various PC resolutions

The panel is actually 1024x1024 native but in a 16:9 physical layout

If curious it is a Phillips 42" 42FD9954/69S http://pdfstream.manualsonline.com/3/3c352b8a-cf36-41a1-a84b-4401ab549765.pdf

The HDMI switch I'm using is this one: https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=4088 which I've used together with the HDMI to VGA adapter since day 1 (bought them at the same time).

I have the Monoprice version of http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZP4H5VI which I've been using for years, with many components running all sorts of resolutions without issue. (PS3, PS4, 360, AppleTV 2nd Gen, standalone BluRay players)

So now I decided to connect my Fire TV Stick to this TV.

FireTV Stick -> short amazon port extender -> HDMI switch -> HDMI to VGA / RCA audio -> VGA & RCA audio connected to TV.

The problem is that the FireTV doesn't allow me to choose my resolution, the TV sees the signal as 640x480 and the resolution menu is forced to 'auto' and if I attempt to pick an alternative resolution (like 720p which I know looks perfect on this TV) it just says "not supported".

I've tried using the adb shell to adjust this but I'm getting nowhere really.

The rest of the internet claims that changing these options will change the resolution being used, well that is not entirely accurate...

This changes the way the device scales the image, but does nothing to affect the actual output

$ wm size

Physical size: 1920x1080

$ wm density

Physical density: 320

Using these settings gives a mostly usable experience but the TV is still getting 640x480 output so as you might imagine things aren't exactly perfect. The main problem is that some apps are hardcoded to a certain density and size. Hulu for example is horribly broken when you change these (even after reboot) but netflix and kodi have no issues.

shell@montoya:/ $ wm size

Physical size: 1920x1080

Override size: 1280x720

shell@montoya:/ $ wm density

Physical density: 320

Override density: 240

On the plus side, lowering these values seem to increase the amount of free RAM according to kodi's info.

(these settings on my FTV2 actually give me ~840MB of free RAM, vs ~790MB free when at stock settings, running 2880x1620 (3K display setting) shows ~720MB free, clearly as my display is only 1080p there is no way the firetv is actually changing to that resolution, its just scaling it)

The changes don't need root and survive reboot, and you need to kill the app(s) you have open when you change this otherwise their display will be a bit more funky than if you don't restart them.

tl;dr

Stick is output at 640x480 any one know how to get it to output 1280x720p?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ludacrisvp:
the bootloader seems to briefly output @ 1080p (which my display freaks out a bit to as it can't do 1080p but can do 1080i/720p) and then once the Amazon logo is gone and it shows FireTV Stick then it changes output down to 640x480p.

Really annoying as this is the only device that has any issue here. I even bypassed the switch and small extension cable that came with the stick.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ludacrisvp:
I did find the amazon HDMI in ADB shell settings ... however I'm still stuck with 640x480. My only thought is that the signal must be getting recognized incorrectly by the HDMI -> VGA adapter.

I tried the FTV2 with this adapter and hit the same issues, so there has to be something with the adapter or android devices in general that is causing this issue (as every other device works perfectly fine).

If someone in the future needs to get their resolution fixed they can change this setting and reboot:

$ adb shell

$ settings get secure amazon_settings_hdmi_resid

16 = 1080p @60hz

4 = 720p @60hz

-1 = auto (I believe)

$ settings put secure amazon_settings_hdmi_resid 4

$ reboot

(that will change the display setting to 720p)
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zzzFelix:
My FireTV stick is running 5.2.1.2 and it seems Amazon has (re)moved the setting amazon_settings_hdmi_resid. Anyone know how to list all available settings? Having the same forced resolution of 640x480.

I some how managed to break my phone's LCD screen. Not sure how it happened... I swear. I called T-Mobile hoping for a replacement and as expected they courteously asked me go F#%K myself. It's almost a new phone so I'm not willing to give up on it.

So now, I'm looking for a way to fix it. First, I want to know where I can find a compatible LCD screen for a descent price. The once I've come across so far are more than $100. And second, instructions on how to replace the screen.

Any help with this will be truly appreciated.

Thanks! :)
[Wing, P4350 General] foltz61:
Anyone ever figure out the replacement process? My daughter broke hers yesterday.

Thanks
[Wing, P4350 General] mv3:
when you order a screen..it should come with tools.

you use those to remove the housing..

then you basically unplug the old LCD touch display and plug in the new one..

i think. :eek:
[Wing, P4350 General] foltz61:
I saw the higher priced lcd's on ebay that included tools & instructions. I basically have the tools I need. I would just like to have the instructions and an lcd. Wny are things like this so hard to find nowadays.

I talked to him in email about the lcd screen, he has the tmobile wing lcd in stock with tools and instructions. 65.00 to 85 bux to get one and it comes with the digitaltizer on it which my wing has a hole in the digitalizer and i have to order a new lcd, hes my best bet.

New LCD, still not working :(

I dropped my Wing a week ago and it seemed fine. Put it in my pocket and then took it out a couple hours later and the screen had about 4 cracks in it. I assumed it was because I had dropped it earlier. The screen was white except for some blue areas where the cracking was most severe.

I ordered a brand new replacement LCD screen on ebay and just finished installing it. To my utter dismay the screen is still completely white!! :( It seems to respond to my touch (it goes brighter when I touch it), and it turns on and off w/ the power switch, but there is nothing but white on the screen.

Is it possible I got the connection loose when I installed it? Or is it likely there's something else wrong with my phone? Thanks in advance for any help.
[Wing, P4350 General] foltz61:
It's probably a bad connection. Did you ever think you'd have to go through so much disassembly to replace the screen? Just so everyone knows, lcd4pda is legit.

Edit: Shipping was extremely high ($16.99). The location on eBay is shown as Canada but, it comes from Virginia. via First Class. I checked shipping to my location on the USPS site. It only cost $1.98. The package weight is 6oz.
[Wing, P4350 General] cracula:
Tell me about it! I had to practically start taking photographs to remember where all of the pieces and screws went. I dropped one of the screws on the ground and it took me 10 minutes to find :). I'll disassemble again later tonight and refit all of the connections to see if that makes a difference. I sure hope so.

For those replacing their screens, the service manual:

http://www.modaco.com/content/Pocke...58716/HTC-Service-Manuals-Dismantling-Guides/

has a good set of instructions on how to disassemble the Wing. The hardest part is when you have to use a credit card or something similar to unseat the keyboard. You actually have to insert the card or other plastic tool between the edge of the keyboard and the edge of the phone. The pictures confused me because it seemed like I was supposed to insert the card flat into the side of the phone but really, if your phone is sitting on top of the table, you actually insert the card DOWN into this small space.

Also, for those that are new to removing the connections that are in the phone (like I was), there is usually some tape that you have to first remove before you can unhook the connection.
[Wing, P4350 General] cracula:
It worked! The connection from the screen to the phone, the one underneath the RF board, wasn't pushed in quite far enough. I reseated it and voila! I now have a working phone again that can not only receive calls but can make them now! :)

Now that I know it works, I can also recommend seller superpc168 on ebay. $49.75 for the screen and I spent $15 for 2-day UPS shipping.
