[Moto Z Questions & Answers] msymmes:
Pixel XL really hard to find at any store or carrier

There seems to be a world wide shortage of Pixel XL phones. I searched and my chosen carrier (gotta use the word 'chosen' loosely) could not supply one even though they have warehouses and stores coast to coast.

So I chose a Moto Z. And to clarify it is not a Moto Z Force or Moto Z Play etc... It seems to be the real generic Moto Z at the high end of the specs and price range.

But to answer your question the best I can - I think the Roms will be available soon from the carriers. My reasoning is that 3 days after I got the phone and the carrier pushed 7.0, the battery life went down. So I expect some updates soon.

But now that I am rooted, at least I get to decide on when to update and I can backout if things get worse.

Rooted Moto G3 with stock ROM.

Recently, I started experiencing Bluetooth connectivity issues. When I connect a Bluetooth device, it will allow me to select Phone Audio and use it normally for phone calls. However, when I disconnect and then reconnect the BT, Phone Audio is deselected and I can no longer toggle it on (it briefly shows a check then immediately switches to unchecked).

The only solution I've found (which is a poor workaround and not a true solution) is either a reboot or wiping the cache for Bluetooth Share. It will again work once and then revert. I have tried a forced reboot and safe mode with the same behavior for both. I have recently tried out AutoVoice for Tasker and Open Mic+ which I thought may have been causing the problem, but they have both been uninstalled.

Thanks!
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fleapower:
I discovered this morning that the problem only occurs when I toggle Bluetooth. If I disconnect a device, leave BT on, and reconnect the device, it still works.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fleapower:
I'm assuming this is a rare issue since there are no replies other than my own. I ended up using Tasker to clean out Bluetooth Share data each time my BT turns off. Not ideal, but it is working.

Task

Can you tell me how did you do that "task" in tasker please? Thank you!
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fleapower:
This is the entire thing (profile and task):

1) Create a profile with a condition state of Bluetooth Status Off.

2) New task using Secure Settings plugin to Clear App Cache for Bluetooth Share. You may have to change it to Clear App Data for Bluetooth Share if it doesn't work using the cache clear. Clearing the cache with Secure Settings doesn't seem to work on the Moto G3. Don't worry, though, it will keep all of your device pairings and settings.

I'm having the same issue on my Moto G4 running 6.0.1

Started noticing this a few weeks ago, not aware of any changes to my phone settings/software that could explain it. Also does not seem to matter what Bluetooth device I (try) to connect to. I've had to restart my phone to connect to at least 3 different Bluetooth audio devices, all of which I'd used flawlessly for months until this issue appeared.

I've tried re-pairing devices, restarting the phone, clearing the system cache, resetting the phone network settings. These sometimes allow the connection to work, but if I try to reconnect an hour or two later It will usually not connect at all, and sometimes will "connect" but not work (checking "use for phone audio" will immediately uncheck).
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahercs:
I saw an article this week from Android Police and Phandroid stating the recent update to the Google Dialer app on Nexus and Pixel phones caused the problem, but clearly, other phones are affected that don't/can't use that app. No idea what happened, but it's bizarre, to say the least

I am having the same problem on my Nexus 5 X. After installing the new Google dialer, I can not tick "phone audio" in the Bluetooth menu. The only way I found is to revert back to the old version of the dialer.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] materdaddy:
I just tried and couldn't get the Tasker solution mentioned working. The Secure Settings app kept giving an error after doing manual steps to get the System+ working for seamless root and paying $1.50 for the pro version.

I ended up writing a script instead, and used the "run shell" action for my tasker setup. It works now.

This is what I have the shell run:

#!/system/bin/sh

rm -rf /data/data/com.android.bluetooth/cache
mkdir /data/data/com.android.bluetooth/cache
chown bluetooth:bluetooth /data/data/com.android.bluetooth/cache
chmod 0751 /data/data/com.android.bluetooth/cache
kill -s 9 $(ps | grep bluetooth | awk '{print $2}')

This removes the cache directory, re-makes it, then sets the owner/permissions appropriately and kills the bluetooth service which re-starts automatically. You have to have root, and enable the "run as root" option in Tasker.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fleapower:
Did you try deleting the data with Secure Settings or just the cache?
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] materdaddy:
I didn't try deleting the data because I thought that would likely clear any pairing information. I didn't want to have to re-pair devices each time I toggled it. If it doesn't clear the pairing information, that could work, but I've already uninstalled Secure Settings.

I can't say this will work for non-HTC 10 owners, but it did work for the few of us that have the 10 and tried it from this other thread

Go to the phone settings app>search for "Bluetooth scanning" and turn it OFF.

Turn on Bluetooth, go into your devices settings, and check if you can Toggle the "phone audio" profile.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmanvanvan:
Can't disable bluetooth scanning

I don't see this option on the One M8.

Will try keeping my bluetooth on and see if that helps.

Is there any way to log this as an issue with Google? HTC? Would they even care?
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahercs:
Under Settings, there's one labeled Location. Once you're there, hit the menu button on the top right, and it should show Scanning. Turn off Bluetooth scanning. Not sure which OS version this became available, but if you have Marshmallow or Nougat, it's there

Don't you ever trust mokee

They don't even have a maintainer , it's mean they don't have this phone to test a "thing"
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] madhurajkumar:
Try AICP Nougat Nightlies. They are working very stable for me with optimized battery and everything fixed. Only for flashlight you will hae to do a soft reboot. This is the most stable custom ROM I've use till now. I think once they release a STABLE build, I would permanently flash that and never switch to another ROM.
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] catos93:
Thank you all for your inputs, my idea is to create a list of each ROM and it's bug´s (if exists).

Right now Im using Carbon Rom and it seems to be stable, I had a problem with the initiall setup but I think it was my fault (I forgot to wipe data). I'll let you know if something else happens. :good:

I am using XOSP ROM (6.0.1), only problem I am having right now is the Flashlight, others (bluetooth, hotspot, dual sim, wifi e.t.c.) working quite well. I have tried other ROMs but there was battery quick draining issues, however there is no such issue in this ROM. You can try this ROM once.

My work upgraded their phones recently and gave the employees the old S4s (l337M), convenient timing because my S3 happened to die that day, but that's a different story.

Anyway, coming from my AOSP ROM'd S3 to a touchwiz 5.0.1 ROM is driving me nuts, so I came here to get a ROM/learn...and every tutorial I read seems to be from 2013 (out of date?), and most mention locked bootloaders and having to use Safestrap.

Is safestrap only needed for ATT versions?

Can I not just use ODIN to flash TWRP recovery and then flash SUPERSU, and then a custom ROM (after a nandroid backup).

If it matters the phone was SIM locked to Rogers, now sim unlocked (using my Koodo SIM currently). And the baseband/build # is showing OH1 as the last 3 digits

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] audit13:
Safestrap is for the AT&T sgh-i337 only.

The sgh-i337m does not have a locked bootloader.

To flash a custom ROM, just use Odin to flash a tar version of TWRP and then flash the ROM of your choice.

Running an i337m myself, I forget the original process, but I just recently switched to Resurrection remix ROM.. (6.0.1 marshmallow based ROM.) I finally get to play with xposed, and I believe no more touchwiz woes...

I'm wondering if the RDS data output of the FM receiver can be redirected to a virtual COM port to be used as a TMC receiver with GPS programs like destinator 7.
[Touch Cruise General] energy59:
Strange mate!:) :)
[Touch Cruise General] Rudegar:
even if it was possible then the reviewer said that it only worked when the headset was connected guess it act the role of antenna would be bothersome to have the wiredheadset hanging while using it as gps
[Touch Cruise General] cptn_dk:
Hi Rudegar, great to see the red/white flag ;-)

Headset vs. FM antenna can be handled software wise.. eg. on Eten G500

As soon as headset is plugged a popup asks to redirect sound to ext. speaker for navigation purpose.

As for the TMC / FM radio in HTC products.. (Polaris, Artemis etc.).. Haven't seen a solution yet, RDS is supported in both products, so if TMC mesages runs on the default RDS stream it should be technical possible.

Merry X-mas and Happy Newyear (go' bag(h)jul)
[Touch Cruise General] beemerTPPC:
I don't think that this could be a problem: I'm thinking on connecting the device in my car with a "Y" connector, one of the outputs to the sound system (car radio) and other to a power system. It is easy to connect the car antenna with a capacitor to the sound line.

Then the Device will be connected to a external headeset, with good antenna capacity, and at the same time to the car power.
[Touch Cruise General] beemerTPPC:
Yes, TMC is only a filtered data stream of the RDS network. Obviously it will be needed to know the correct RDS chain that works in each country for TMC, but it is only information.

The question is: Is there any known way to extract online information of the RDS data from the FM receiver programatically?

I can do a program that attach to any API or hardware interface and present the data in a virtual port.
[Touch Cruise General] User22:
Well, i can't help you too much but i remember that some time ago, perhaps a year ago, hackers been cheating on RDS and people been foolish when reading on their car radios notices like "alarm because of ..." . I don't remember also wich country, perhaps Australia or Usa.
[Touch Cruise General] beemerTPPC:
I also remember that, but I'm talking of the opossite side of teh RDS: Trafic information is sent like these RDS hackers sent their "information" but in a data format called TMC. Inserting this RDS transmited-TMC coded information into some GPS navigation software helps the software to create optimized routes.

I've seen the Polaris manual and the FM receiver is RDS compliant, then the RDS data transmited over the FM modulation is decoded iniside the Polaris and shown in the screen. But: If we could extract these RDS information from the decoder and make it available in a serial virtual port, then GPS navigation software running in the polaris could take advantage of it.
[Touch Cruise General] Mc0815:
I need the FMS_API.DLL, then there is TMC/TMC Pro !!!
[Touch Cruise General] drkbg:
from what I've read most navigation software support combined gps/tmc on the same com port. this means someone should extract also the gps data and combine both...
[Touch Cruise General] beemerTPPC:
At least Destinator 7 supports two separate comports for GPS and TMC.
[Touch Cruise General] Mc0815:
it must be changed gpstmc.dll. but the FMS_API.DLL penetrate needed!!!

[Touch Cruise General] NikMel:
There is NO TMC support for our POLARIS

There is NO TMC support for our POLARIS

[Touch Cruise General] InfX:
Demodulating the RDS data is all that hardware is supposed to do, the rest can be done by software. Polaris got an FM radio receiver that seems to show the station names. The only place it can get those names from is an RDS stream, so it is already doing the demodulation of that !
[Touch Cruise General] wis38:
If still interested, here there is a nice original HTC test package (from the Diamond) containing test FM dll and exe.

Works on Cruise too, and looks more flexible than standard FM radio application. Maybe this code is more useful than standard ROM one.
