[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firefly6240:
I have an active T-mobile SIM in mine and no issues so far with an active data plan.

You are right though, it did have some odd issues when I had the sim in without an active data plan.

I diddnt have any app crashes but for some reason google play would not update apps even when I was on wifi, they would just stick in downloading status.

as soon as the sim card was activated or removed they downloaded fine.

There were a few other odd blips here and there when using something with network connectivity (Browser, facebook etc.)

The only reason I could see was that if you have an inactive sim card and then go to settings > about device > status the mobile network is constantly connecting and disconnecting and switching between unknown and LTE every second or two.

I suspect this may use extra processor resources and would likely impact battery life a bit as well.

I have an inactive sim at home, I may run some tests to verify it uses extra resources.

thanks for posting this, I noticed the issues and what resolved it but did not put two and two together until reading this post.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poetryrocksalot:
My SIM card was an inactive verizon wireless if that helps. I've only had crashing and memory issues. It's been several months now and not a single crash, and I always use my tablet.

If you want to test on your verizon sim, you should try sketchbook, videos, and any game such as clash of clans or boom beach. You need a memory or graphic intensive app to trigger these crashes.

Any small apps like Gmail will not crash. Although I had crashes in Adobe Reader if the PDF was large or the pages had a lot of visual content.

Note that I said you will crash with most apps open, I retract that statement. It is actually more likely to crash with anything that uses a lot of memory, caches alot, or is CPU or graphics intensive

Also, I think this bug only occurs on Android version 5.1.1
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BillVanDusen:
No problems here

Just wanted to let you know that I am still using my Note Pro with an active Sim card and I'm not running into any reboot issues. (I still haven't found anything even comparable to it to upgrade to without crossing over so i'll just keep using it! )
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thundastruck:
Hi All,

I have several DJ mixes in excess of 2 hours long which I like to listen to on my S4 i9500. The problem is, e.g., I have one mix which is 2 hours long and when trying to start it passed 110 minutes it cuts out forcing me to play the mix from anywhere before 110 minutes. The error I get is "Sorry, the player does not support this type of audio file" which is BS because it does. The stock music app also (sometimes) doesn't read the correct length of the file if it's (e.g.) in excess of 2 hours long.

Please note my music files aren't broken - my music files are formatted in mp3 and flac & play just fine on my PC.

I'm suspecting this is a limitation of the stock music player? Video files play correct - I have no problem forwarding a movie to a specific point in time.

Would anyone kindly shed some light on this matter?

Ps. I'm on Android Lollipop.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thundastruck:
Google Play Music does the same. Can't forward more than like 110 minutes into the mix.

This has got something to do with Android I'm sure.

Am I the 1st person to encounter this issue?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3mel:
many video players support playing music files, they really shouldn't struggle with long files.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thundastruck:
Found an old thread on XDA regarding Android stock music player not reporting correct file lengths and music tracks skipping in Lollipop. The fix was to use Nu player in dev options. This helped ZERO for me. Anyway, seems I'm talking to myself here...

To whomever reads this, kindly grab a mp3/flac/wav/whatever sound file longer than 2 hours and try fast-forwarding to the end. If your song plays without error, I'd like to hear from you. :)

If not, welcome to the club ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thundastruck:
My new S6 does not have this issue. My assumption is that it is probably the roms I have/had on my S4 responsible for doing this. Probably ported S6/Note 5 stock apps would be my best guess.

I never used stock firmware on my S4 i9500 because it was too slow - maybe the problem isn't present on stock roms. I don't know & probably won't ever.

Anyway, I'm putting this one too rest. And my old S4 as well, 'cause it ain't matter no more. It's purpose was served. Sad but true. Chow!

Thanks hicked for your work on this mod.

I followed the instructions but used Root Browser instead of ES Browser. (I don't know if this made a difference)

After the restart audio failed to work on the internal speaker or on earphones. It gave me an "audio stopped" mesaage

I accessed mixer_paths.XML through Root Browser and changed the permissions to the same as in my attached image. After another reboot audio worked again, and was noticibly louder through the earphones. Also tested on my Bluetooth speaker and on my Bluetooth headphones and they seem to be louder now too.

Great work!

I think it's too loud. Sound is distorted in max volume.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Alenos:
Thanks for this.

But I can't install it.

I am having android 4.4.4. My phone is rooted but I dont remember if I installed custom rom o not lol.

I love my z1 compact and it still working perfectly, I bought it in 2014 in Germany, I rooted it my self and never updated it for fear of bugs and problems with the battery.

My only problem whit the phone was that the sound is quite low, so I would like to try this. But I cant paste the file into the system/etc.

I think its because I dont have the privilege to rewrite the files in the system folder. I can activate the root explorer in the Es file explorer but wont let me change the r/w mount. When I check the read and write option nothing happens. Press accept, open it again and its still on read option... I tried with other explorers too without success.

Could it be because the super su isnt updated? When I open super su a message appears saying that the binaries arent updated. When I try to update it fails...

Thanks for your time and advice.

I was able to clean it up a bit in nero wav editor, but still. I'm thinking i need to tune down the gain ALOT, or just muffle the mic as much as i can.

any suggestions besides "use search button?" ;-)

At Resco's highest quality setting was able to record a 1.5 hour set... gonna be funny as hell if i'm gonna have to semi-sound proof my phone so i can make a decent boot....

Hello,

I have read trough many threads about returning to stock FW and there may be issues, that's why I'm starting this thread.

I have installed CM13 nightly on device, and I'd like to return to stock rom.

CM13 is Android 6, I have Baltic version so it is only 5.5.1 stock, at the moment, didn't find any 6 version. But don't know how important is this version, maybe I can safely install other EU version.

To be more specific actually I don't care about knox counter and even rom, only thing I really need is fully functional Samsung Kids Mode with all the apps included. As I have read through many threads it is pain in the ... or even close to impossible, to install it on CM13, so logical way could be downgrade back to stock.

I'd be happy to read any suggestion, some link to step by step procedure or whatever info!

Thanks! Cheers!

[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tanner1294:
There's probably very little to nothing different between the Chinese variant and the rest except for the software itself. It would be more taxing on a small company like Oneplus to be flashing separate firmware when there's no hardware differences.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quintinliono:
Hello,

The phones from Samsung, and a lot of other android phones as well, have a hardware module test. When in the dialer, you pres *#0*# for a menu to pop up. In this menu there are several tests to be done. My question is fairly simple. I'm searching for a way to make a shortcut to those test. So not the hardware module test menu, but specifically a test, let say the LED test.

I've two devices. A rooted Tab S (without dialer app) and a S7. When I'm on my Tab S, and make a shortcut in my launcher for an activity, I can scroll down to HwModuleTest and select a ton of activities ( see screenshot), but when I click on it, it says that the application is not installed. On my S7 I tried doing the same, but I didn't get as much options as on my Tab S, but if i choose the main activity, it also says application not installed.

Question: Is there another way to make this shortcut (WITHOUT ROOT)-or-is there a way to monitor all the activities the phone has. That way I can see what specific activity the HwModuleTest uses to peform these tests.

My gratitude will be great.

Just factory reset, and downgraded from Marshmallow, to this ROM.

I honestly tried to use Marshmallow. Compiles kernels dozens of times. But no luck.

Reboots and lags does not suit me.

And decides to use 5.1.1, as more stable.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] Hobbzey:
I'm all about this ROM as Marshmallow has just been one big rebooting mess!

However, during flashing everything went fine except the build.prop install...

Your line:

[Sony Smartwatch 3] alex6600:
Did you mount system in twrp before install?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] Hobbzey:
I got it sorted out actually, turns out it was because I was using the version of TWRP I got from here:

http://xdaforums.com/smartwatch-3/development/mec24h-twrp-root-busybox-kernel-adiutor-t3365990

I initially skipped installing the one you provided above because I already had that one installed, but switched to the one you provided and reflashed with no errors!

One last question, is it possible to turn off the rounded screen corners? Is that something that can be edited into the build.prop or is it in kernel?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] alex6600:
Rounded screen corners is a kernel feature, not ROM.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] Hobbzey:
And do you recommend your LCA43 kernel from here http://xdaforums.com/smartwatch-3/orig-development/kernel-sony-smartwatch-3-kernel-t3304102 or should we stick with the one already in the rom? Or are they one and the same?

Hi everyone, could someone please help me? I'm trying to downgrade my SW3 from MM to this rom, but I don't know how to do it. I've got installed windroid toolkit but it doesn't anything. I can't install twrp, unlock bootloader... nothing. I've got correctly installed ADB drivers, windroid recognises my watch, but this is everything I can do until here. I'm trying to do the downgrade because my battery flies twice per day, meanwhile in MM battery lasted up to 4 days... Has someone the same problem?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] crunchybutternut:
Reboot to Fastboot, and flash the TWRP .img from there. (note: be sure you are in the directory where the twrp.img file is stored)

adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot [I]twrp.img[/I]
fastboot reboot
adb reboot recovery

And viola. You can then flash this ROM.

It's OK actually, just after twrp flash, I have "VIRTUAL SDCARD" on my windows pc, I put the zip and I flashed it in recovery.

[Sony Smartwatch 3] golfnut22:
Thank you for this rom. I apparently cannot use MM on my watch. No matter what MM version or procedure, including Sony's XC, it will get stuck on the 4 MM dots booting up. I think I might be doing something wrong by either a procedure step or sequence. However, it could be my watch hardware. I have followed your procedure in your other threads for MM to no success. However, your 5.1.1.2 rom works great. I'm sure there are some advantages I am missing out comparing LP to MM, but at least it is not a paper weight anymore. And, while I was able to get another version of LP working, those would update and mess me up again when it downloaded and installed MM. Your rom does not have the automatic updates, so no worries.

If you happen to run across a situation where a watch gets stuck on MM 4 dots and happen to find a procedure or process to get around that and load MM, I would be happy to try.

Thanks again.
