    Post [W.I.P] AOSP 7.1.1_r4 Nougat NMF26O [07.12.2016]

    Noticed this bug in DevSwift1's 7.0 rom, not sure if it exists in this 7.1 version: The wifi during sleep settings - initially I had the device to turn of wifi when sleeping unless plugged in. This worked. However after plugging the device into my computer (and then unplugging it), the wifi...

    Post [ROM] [6.0.1 r_61] Resurrection Remix v5.7.3][OFFICIAL]

    If you're playing music via bluetooth through a speaker or your car stereo, and you get a phone call, does it make the phone lock up? "Call of Death" ? I've experienced this on other Marshmallow roms and curious if it's the case here too.

    Hmm... sounds like something that started happening on my M919 a few months ago. Another user with similar (same?) issue posted in general here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-tmobile/general/sound-voice-calls-t3392450 My reply was this... haven't tried the fix yet:

    Post No sound on voice calls

    This just happened to my M919 a few weeks ago. Voice call audio works via bluetooth ONLY but not via phone speakers or wired headset. Everything else (media, videos, whatsapp calls, messenger calls, etc. works fine). I did a lot of research and found almost nothing ... except this...

    Post No in-call audio for cellular calls... BT calls work fine though

    OK so it appears to be hardware! While making a test call, I took the back cover off and moved my finger around the upper area of the phone - near the SIM card slot - and applied various amounts of pressure. The in-call audio returned! However if I jostle the phone a bit, I lose audio. So some...

    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...

    I'm using CF Lumen, also by Chainfire. He's been working on various issues from the newest set of updates. Definitely could be related, if not the culprit; however I assume most people who are using CF Lumen are also using SuperSU, so we'll see if others have issues.

    Knox won't be deactivated; it will be "tripped" and you can never go back to "untripped" knox. But that won't matter; the thing is, your Bootloader now has Knox, and as I understand it, you cannot downgrade from a Knox bootloader to a non-knox bootloader. Doing so will possibly brick the...

    I don't think you'll be able to downgrade because 4.4.4 likely has a knox bootloader, but I could be wrong. I personally have a T-Mobile M919 but am assuming hardware is same. Perhaps try setting up a US-based VOIP number via google voice or ring.to or the like, and try calling MetroPCS for...

    Strangely enough, I reinstalled Test-5 this morning just to see if it would affect video again; same setup as last time and rebooted after install. No issues with video now, tested the same websites / apps and everything seems fine. Not sure what happened before but it appears to be gone now.
