Hi all, I've owned my S4 for a year an a half and out of nowhere started experiencing a huge issue today. I have no audio whatsoever - earpiece or mic - when making a cellular call. I dial, and the call goes through (the other party receives the cal), but I have no audio. Even when plugging...

Fun fact: The Galaxy S4 is the only phone on which the Google (Play) Edition is actually on and older version of android (5.0) than the stock (touchwiz) version (5.0.1). The only exception is where carriers have chosen not to update their respective S4 models; i.e. T-Mobile US. Kudos to...

Hi all, I recently installed the Xposed module MinMinGuard, which is supposed to help remove ads in the browser, and even the "white space" that is where the ad was before it was blocked. I activated and used it for a bit and enabled on all my apps, however after deciding to discontinue use...

I take voice lessons weekly and use my S3 to record each lesson. Yesterday I wanted to experiment with AOSP so backed up my TW setup, did the proper system / data wipes and installed OctOS (aosp-based kitkat). After using it for a day and noticing a few limitations on AOSP (not as good GPS...

I originally was running stock NE4 on my phone, but flashed KT747 specifically for the infinitycolors option; screen looks so much more accurate with it... However I've been running into some stability issues, it just seems that KT747 and the i747 don't agree with eachother 100% (I was...

Hi, Is there any place to download the stock NE4 kitkat kernel? Insecure? I searched around a bit and can't seem to find it if it is.

Hi, I bought a verizon LG G2 off ebay which was listed as "new," but I'm suspicious that it's not actually new, it's been used. It's also possible that the seller had the device new for a while but didn't use it. Is there any way to verify this? If I go to Application Manager -> All Apps...

Hi all! I've been an S3 user for a little over 1.5 years; been a native of the Sprint forums (although my Sprint S3 is flashed to Page Plus). Now that VZW has made their prepaid plan a lot more competitive and included LTE, I'm planning on making the jump, and thinking of picking up an G2 in...

Hi all! I've been an S3 user for a little over 1.5 years; been a native of the Sprint forums (although my Sprint S3 is flashed to Page Plus). Now that VZW has made their prepaid plan a lot more competitive and included LTE, I'm planning on making the jump, and picking up an S4 in the process...

I know batteries degrade with time, however if purchasing a 3rd party battery or used phone, is there any way to determine date of manufacture or age of battery?

Hi All, I'm considering replacing my S3 with a different color one. Curious if I'd be able to nandroid my device, copy that over to the new device (along with swapping in my SD card), and just restore the nandroid on the new S3. Would this work? Would I have to root the new S3 first...

I was able to do multiple widgets on my (pattern-secured) lockscreen on 4.3 via an xposed module, however it looks like the author of that module didn't update it for kitkat. I've done some searching and haven't figured out how yet ... anyone have any success in this area?

Hi all, I've had a Galaxy S3 which I've been happy with for the past year and a half, however want to move onto something newer. I'm an off-contract user, so buy my phones outright and then utilize prepaid on various carriers for my service. Anyway my primary concerns are getting fast android...

So I'm probably going to be selling my S3 in a month or 2 and moving over to AIO/Cricket ... ie. at&t/gsm. Not sure which device I should go with. I'll most likely buy a phone off ebay; with $350 being the ceiling. Nexus 5 is tempting, but we're more than halfway thru the nexus cycle and I've...

I count: 1) CNexus Stock 4.3 kernel 2) decimalman's 4.3 TW kernel 3) Ktoonsez 4.3 TW kernel Does this list represent our choices? Which is your preference?

Hi All, Having some issues with my phone. I'm on CNexus' 4.3 stock MK3 rom. The only mods I've done to it is disabling some of the bloat with TB and also have Wanam Xposed installed. Note that I have seen this behavior on other roms too. Usually within a day or 2 of doing a reboot, the...

I recently bought a Razr M with the goal of having it flashed to work on Page Plus. It has the latest Android build 98.18.94 which I understand cannot be rooted. Do I need 98.15.66 or something even earlier?

Ripped from /r/android. Found this to be quite interesting. Apparently the OEMs don't really control if their devices get support for new android versions or not. http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/1j13xd/how_oems_havent_announced_43_updates_for_the/...

Hi All, I'm sure many of you checked out the Android 4.3 / Nexus / etc. announcement today. OpenGL ES 3.0 is being touted as one of the big features of 4.3. I did a quick search and noticed that our phone w/ the Adreno 225 does not support OpenGL 3.0. I'm curious - how do you guys think this...

Hi All, I've been trying a few different kernels on my d2spr, and though I backed up my system in complete before flashing anything, I'm curious if there's an easy way to remove kernel scripts before flashing a new one to avoid having to restore a backup every time. For instance - I run the...

Hi all, I've had this issue for the entire time I've had my GS3 - on stock or custom roms. Essentially, in order for me to send or receive an MMS message, my wifi has to be off (disconnected) and I have to have data on. If my wifi is connected and I have mobile data toggled on, mms still...

Anyone download the new maps? I just received the update via the play store last night ... downloaded it and it's slow as heck! Runs much slower (fps-wise) than the previous maps. Also several features are hidden / removed... Thoughts? EDIT: Added APK http://www1.datafilehost.com/d/920483f4

Hi All, My TWRP nandroids are currently stored on my external SD. I'd like to free up some space on that card and move it to the GS3's internal SD storage. Is this as simple as just copying / moving the directory from external to internal? Or is there anything else I should be mindful of...

Hi All, Just ran into a new (severe) problem. It began yesterday evening. I was in the process of pairing my phone with my new bluetooth car stereo, and noticed it wasn't pairing properly (was doing phone or audio, but not both simultaneously). Anyway I went to the internet via 3G to try to...

An extended battery on ebay (only place I can find it) that is as slim as the stock GS3 battery. The seller feedback / reviews seem good enough (no real negatives that I can find, in relation to this particular product). Anyone out there tried this? Noticeable improvement? Seems pretty...

Hi all, I've run into an issue on my gs3 (running Freezas fre3 rom) - if I compose a text and press the paperclip/attach button, I don't have the option to add an image (see screenshot). The only way I can attach an image to a message is by sharing it through the gallery or whatever image...

Hi All, I've been running Aero's CM9 for ages but would like to give Nit's UKB a shot. One thing I despise about Sense, however, is the messaging app; and I'd prefer to use the ICS AOSP messaging app, as well as dialer / contacts. I understand that Nit's installer lets you choose which of the...

Hi All, Back in the days of using GB, I remember that the stock messaging app had an option to show only contacts w/ mobile numbers, so that you wouldn't accidentally select a landline or office phone to text (it might have been default functionality, actually - if a number was labeled as...

Hi all, I'm running Aero's 7-12 CM9 / 10.5 BFS, and have noticed extremely laggy 3G. Not laggy in the traditional sense though. It's when I open a program that needs to access the internet, it takes 10+ seconds to pull anything down. Lets say I open Tapatalk. When I click a forum, it will...

Looks like the HTC Evo Design 4G is launching (or re-launching, depending on how you look at it) on Boost Mobile, May 31st. This phone uses our chipset / processor - MSM8655 - and will launch with ICS / Sense 3.6. I believe this is the first phone that uses the same chipset as ours that will...

Hey Devs & Helpers out there, Just wanted to write a thank you to all the hard work you put in, gratis, for our device. I cannot overstate how fantastic it is to have a wide selection of roms for our phone, as it gives the user so many options and things to look forward to in terms of updates...

Hey all - When I upgraded to the dinc2 I came from the original dinc (actually gave it to a buddy of mine). Anyway - we were comparing phones and the Torch / flashlight on the dinc is SO MUCH BRIGHTER than the dinc2. The DINC on "low" is the same brightness as the dinc2 on "high," and the...

Hi All, I recently started using the CM9 music app instead of the default ICS one, and I've noticed significantly increased battery usage by the CM9 app. The phone is noticeably slower when playing songs, and if I look at my battery stats, after playing music for approximately 30 minutes, I'm...

Hi All, In my experience so far with the dinc2, I've used several Sense as well as AOSP roms. Though I prefer AOSP overall, I did notice that when I used Sense roms, the call quality seemed a bit better / different when using the built-in earpiece (aka non-headset, non-speakerphone). There...

Hi All, I upgraded my phone (Dinc2) to CM9 a few days ago, coming from CM7.2. Unfortunately the Google Backup & Restore service didn't work when I booted CM9 for the first time, so my wifi settings & saved AP's didn't transfer over. I have a nandroid of my CM7.2 installation, and I also have...

Hi All, I recently installed Aero's CM9, coming from CM7.2. I had a ton of wifi passwords / access points saved from my CM7.2 install as I had been using it for quite some time, however in the upgrade process to CM9, they did not get transferred over (contrary to what Google Backup & Restore...

Looks like user NODO-GT has put together an HQ camera apk / patch for the Sensation on ICS. Quality looks quite amazing compared to normal pics. Is the Sensation's camera hardware similar to/the same as ours? I wonder if there's a way if we could get 1080p recording as well (although that...

If the EVO Design 4G is "Upgradeable to ICS," shouldn't the DINC2 be as well? Just a curious question - forgive my ignorance if this has been posted elsewhere. It seems that the EVO Design 4G and the DINC 2 are nearly identical hardware-wise, aside from processor clockspeed and screen...

Hi All, Been lurking / reading this forum for a while now, and I appreciate all the help and knowledge received from reading various threads. When I saw the CM7.0.0 final this morning, I got excited and wanted to give it ago. Previously I was running CM6.1, and had just done a full Titanium...
