Ask questions, discuss things. Here's the place to do it.
Phantom voicemail icon in notifications. There used to be an option in call settings to disbale the notification altogther. Is there any chance of getting that in your build kind sir?
The only things keeping me from using the rom is volume is quiet and the camera sucks absolute ass the qualityis horrible and when you try to video at 1080 you get pixels i have tried several other cam apps nothing fixes this and the wifi signal quality is lower than lg software
Can't deny that about the camera. I had some issues with apps closing, on 15 &16 build so I went back to stock, I redownloaded 15 build & its been awesome, & I'm not noticing anything with wifi, also using wifi tether to run Nexus 10 tablet & it works great.
Also haven't had any phantom VM in status bar once

Little thing I noticed this morning. Battery stats do not reset after it's unplugged from a full nights charge.
Phone is going to sleep when i am on a call. When i take the phone away from my head to disconnect the call, the proximity sensor doesn't come back on, I have to hit the power button in order to wake up the phone and disconnect. Anyone else have this issue?
Has anyone used like slim gapps as opposed to pa gapps.

I have noticed that it is spotty. Not a deal breaker for me although, I have been trying to open my other devices the same way, even my work iPhone. [emoji1]
I am so used to knock to wake now, yes I do it on all kinds of devices now.

So no one having voicemail icon appear when there are none? This is an old sprint issue from back in the HTC Evo days. Anyone who had sprint before smart phones.

In had this sort of happen on stock. My icon would not disappear after listening to a voice mail, had to reboot. I assume a reboot does not fix it?

Just curious, now that you've got CM12 Beta out, & it runs great I might add, are you going to continue working on CM11, I hope so for sure as I found quite a few apps that wouldn't install on cm12, rom toolbox pro for one, kindle another, let alone the tons of themes I've bought. Like I said just curious.

This one is a little different. It will alwasy show you have 3 voicemails. When there is none. Regardless if you have listened to any or not. I prefer to use youmail.
CM browser
Since there is not an official CM 12 Q&A thread I'm just going to ask this here. I have CM 12 running and aside from the known bugs everything is great. The question I have is that my office uses a 2 part authentication method to log into the guest wifi for non corporate devices. Once connected to the AP you sign into a web based form similar to what you would do in a hotel or an airport. After entering your individual ID / password you then get a prompt for a non-secure SSL site which after acknowledging allows the device to connect. If this prompt opens in the chrome browser (which I have installed and set as the default in settings -> apps) I can sign in, allow the SSL connection and connect. CM keeps opening this prompt in the CM browser which does not go to the SSL acknowledgement and therefore the device does not connect to the network. I've tried disabling the browser outright but it still opens every single time. Does anyone know of a way to get the prompt to open in chrome? I work within 15 feet of an AT&T repeater installed in the building so I get crap for connection on Sprints network.

Okay so i have been looking around and found that we do have a lot of questions around Wi-Fi tethering being an issue...
- APN change fails after an hour or two
- Aftermarket tethers installed. and run but do not seem to be found by other devices
- Wifirouter.apk push from 1.36 showed no change (Connected but no internet connection)
So, what else have people tried that has things working for them or not working that we can note as a fail...
So far i've tried Barnacle and Wifi Tether ( I had to download from the web since it will not show in the market). Both start fine and say they are sharing wifi but my pc on win 7 will not see them. I can try use either on the vibrant and both work fine, my pic finds them. Any other ideas... I still have 10 days to exchange this phone. I really do not want to go to the SGS2 but if there's no way to tether without paying xtra for something i already get... im afraid i will have no choice....

Well I don't have an issue and never did. It always worked fine for me. What happened to me is that after a few hours of standard internet usage it started directing me to the upsell page no matter how many times I changed the APN or rebooted the device. But... perhaps it's market specific. I called T-Mobile b/c they were still throttling me after my new billing cycle and I asked them about it and they said that pretty much everything is market specific. That might explain a lot actually. Like I was telling Alexis, in the market where she is located I would never get throttled despite the fact that T-Mobile sent me a message stating that I was. I would still have a ~4mb/s DL speed on my vibrant 3g device. But here in Detroit I get throttled down to 130kb/s. UGH!
Don't feel bad, Binary 130kb/s is my average. I live in a 2G area with a 4G area ten miles up the road.

130kb/s makes me feel terrible when I'm accustomed to averaging 15mb/s.
Throttling down that much should be violation of the Eighth Amendment.

Roughly. I didn't measure it at all but it was standard internet activity. Nothing more. No downloading or anything like that. They sent me a warning at first by pushing a notice to my phone after a few hours saying that I would need to add the service if I wanted to continue using it. The icon was a globe with a "w" on it.
About 5 or 6 hours later I was directed to the upsell page. Despite how many times I rebooted, disconnected, changed my apn, etc I would have be forced to the upsell page. As soon as I added the $15 service I had tethering again. Instantly.
Ok, that is what im trying to figure out... what you did differently. No one else has had that same issue yet that i have heard of.
I flashed 1.3 quicksense today, changed by apn... Went to tether... This time i was able to connect my laptop to my phone, but right off i got the redirect notice...
After talking with binary last night, we got to thinking maybe its kernel based... I am working with boarder on getting the kernel he is running... As its not stock... His APN change fixed his tether completely, maybe the redirect bs is kernel based...
I've had a thunderbolt since they were released and dealt with all the bs from the get go. The problem that I still don't understand is why sometimes my phone will not receive texts from people! It's mainly my girlfriend that I know of but I'm not sure if its with other people as well.. my phone will be receiving text messages and then all of a sudden I'll stop receiving texts in return for awhile. I contacted Verizon about the issue but they said I may have a "glitch" in my service? They also told me its too difficult to troubleshoot?! Which did nothing to solve my problem go figure ha I'm sure I'm not the only one experiencing this issue. I've tried multiple sms apps along with stock and still no dice. Anyone else having issues or have any advice on how to solve this extremely annoying problem?

Try enabling revision a, or disabling it in the rare case your settings came that way from the Verizon store, by dialing ##778# on your phone, hit call if you need to.
Choose edit mode
Password is 000000 (six zeros)
Choose modem settings, go down to revision A, and change from e HRDP to "enabled"
Press menu and commit modifications, phone will reboot.
After it settles you may need to go to *#*#4636#*#* and choose phone info then change your preferred network settings to get a solid signal.
You need to also try another radio version because on my thunderbolt the new radio didn't work that great so I use the one before the last one and it works good
Its the 800 something one
I also use skyraiders zues 1.3 and it works great and I'm on imo's 5.1 kernel
Plus when I use to have messenging problems all the time when I restarted my phone it would start receiving again
I would send a text to myself to check it
I game on that setup with 4g and it works good but Verizon works different in different areas so you have to check it out by trying different radios and different kernels

I'm gonna try the modem process first and see where that gets me cuz I've used plenty of different kernels and roms and still no dice.. thank you kindly for the tips and tricks cuz there has got to be a way to Solve this extremely annoying issue.

Just did the modem process so we'll see if it works lol Fingers crossed! do you know if there is an issue between messaging with ios and aos?
its a verizon thing and even IOS has the same problem
as you can see here http://community.vzw.com/t5/iPhone-4/Not-receiving-sms-messages-on-iPhone/td-p/495728
you really need to check out different radio versions
from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048128
and see which one works better
just make sure its named right and you need both cdma and lte put one at a time on root of sd card and flash through bootloader
If your not recieving texts i know a definate way to fix it while verizon works the kinks out but you can use google voice download it from the market and set you up a account and it doesnt use verizons native service it goes through internet to send messages
I use all the time and its free for me since i have unlimited data
but that will fix you up
---------- Post added at 10:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:11 AM ----------
also this was told tyo me by a verizon techy that if you go into applications and under the messaging app your using clear cache and data it might work and it did for me but it started back a few days later but it can never hurt
1st get another radio version i like 802 LTE and 817 cdma but they all work different for each phone
2nd clear data and cache from messaging app
3rd use post steps that i sent to you a few post back to get into the radio info for verizon technicians
if all that fails
4th this always works use google voice to send messages
---------- Post added at 10:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 AM ----------
and if you use a generic battery and the cover does not have good contacts
your signal will be weaker also
I had to get a verizon extended battery cause i bought one off internet and my signal dropped pretty bad and when i put OEM back on it it done way better
that was way back when there was so many gps problems tho but every little thing helps and the higher quality contacts inside your battery cover even helps
I've never tried to flash a radio through bootloader before, is it as easy as flashing a Rom in recovery? My buddy updated my radio for me so I didn't have to. That's alot of useful info for sure man thank you! Do you work for Verizon? Lol

Hello everyone I just got this the other day and I rooted/unlocked it day one. I have tried many roms cm7, rocko, cm9, aokp (current rom) and loved it all but I have some questions;
1. On aokp i seem to randomly have to click things 3-6 times to get it to register or go away (ie, confirmations, superuser requests, and the game C.H.A.O.S.) This was not an issue on non ics roms.
2. My favorite game C.H.A.O.S. is a triple touch game, in my 2 days of experience it seems on stock and stock based roms only 2 touch works and on aosp roms its up to 5. However in both cm7 and ics I am having consistent issues with my touches being glitchy and sticky during gameplay. Is this a hardware or driver issue? Is there any stock based rom that offers faithful triple touch?
3. No matter what ics rom im on Chrome force closes all the time is this normal? Opera wont even open
4. Are there settings or options on what orientation the kickstand defaults to on ics? It doesnt auto rotate and i would like to be able to charge it while using the kickstand.
Thank you guys in advance

Welcome!
1) Not normal. wipe cache, dalvik, and fix perms. Users also report weird problems if installing via Kitchen Sink, it's not done yet. If thats the case for you, try installing the old fashioned way through cmw.
2) I dont have this issue in cm7. But it is to be expected in the ICS roms at the moment.
3) Chrome doesnt work as it uses video acceleration and we dont have the correct video drivers yet. Opera 12 hasn't worked in any iteration of our ICS roms.
4) Not sure about this one, i never use my kickstand.
Chrome hasn't worked well on ICS roms for the Photon yet. Opening a tab always force closes the browser. For the touch issues, did you flash the water droplet fix? The phone has a software "feature" that ignores long presses over a certain length of time, making gaming a frustrating endeavor.

All that fix does is prevent the phone from automatically releasing your touch after a certain time when you tap and hold. I think your problem extends a bit further than that. Worth a shot though.

Hi
New to Photon.
I ordered n got an unlocked version of Sprint Photon 4G n I live in India.
There are many sprint specific apps on ma Mopho which I don't want. So my question is
1. Can I flash a STOCK Rom without any of those apps if yes where do I find the Rom?
2. Will RSD lite do the job?
3. Will there be any other issues if anyone has tried it?
Any other advice is appreciated.

A few more clarifications:
1.I tried setting up 2G internet connection today. I use Vodafone in India on that phone. EVERYTHING works except the Data! Vodafone India reps have promised a call back cuz it didn't get resolved.
What else could I try now?
2.The USSD code to check available balance etc doesn't work. It simply keeps saying requesting details or something like that!
Is it in some way locked or anythin?

I have been a lurker on this site for many years and am active on other sites. For some reason I just never posted on xda.
Samsung Galaxy S4 Developer Edition (Verizon), running the latest CM 11 (4.4.2) from the Original Android Development section.
For some reason the Xfinity TV Go app doesn't recognize that I am on Verizon. It will not let me stream media unless I am on WiFi. It says something is wrong with the playlist and it times out. On WiFi it works as it is supposed to.
Is there any way to trick the app so that it knows I am on Verizon so I can stream media over their network? I don't really know how long this issue has been present, I just noticed this weekend on a semi road trip. I usually just hot spot my phone and watch the app on my N7, but I made the major mistake of forgetting my N7 this weekend.
Anyone ever see this issue? Know of a fix? Link? I did some googling, but nothing really came up. It was mainly people trying stream media over another network (TMO, AT&T, etc.) which doesn't allow this.
I was going to post this in the thread for CM 11, but my post count is so low I am only allow to post in Q&A for now.
you have to enable it to stream over the network within the app's settings menu.

Thanks for the reply, but I had the 'Use Cellular Data" already checked within the app.
I thought it might be specific to CM11 or ASOP in general, because there is no real AOSP phone on Verizon anymore. Anyone with a Gnex able to use this app?
Attached is the error it gives me. Google didn't help too much.

True. I wonder if it works with the Moto X then. I can check on that. My wife has the S4 on Verizon (stock rom) and it works perfectly for her. It definitely happened when I flashed CM11.
For anyone having problems with doing Wi-Fi calling I have found a permanent solution that seems to work, at least for the Pure Nexus rom. The build dated 8-07-2015 for some reason will not work with Wi-Fi calling. The fix is to apply the radio from factory image from the latest build from Google for T-Mobile which is LYZ28J.
I have a link here to my google drive with the file below:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bw_st8EHY1jVOEh1bG5NYnFGb2s
to apply the radio, you must open up a command prompt and put the phone into the bootloader.
the command to apply the file will be: fastboot flash radio "[location]radioname.img"
Example: fastboot flash radio c:\android\sdk\platform-tools\radio.img
I have confirmed this working on two devices running Pure Nexus rom build 8-07-2015. As for other builds this may be a viable option!

For anyone having problems with doing Wi-Fi calling I have found a permanent solution that seems to work, at least for the Pure Nexus rom. The build dated 8-07-2015 for some reason will not work with Wi-Fi calling. The fix is to apply the radio from factory image from the latest build from Google for T-Mobile which is LYZ28J.
I have a link here to my google drive with the file below:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bw_st8EHY1jVOEh1bG5NYnFGb2s
to apply the radio, you must open up a command prompt and put the phone into the bootloader.
the command to apply the file will be: fastboot flash radio "[location]radioname.img"
Example: fastboot flash radio c:\android\sdk\platform-tools\radio.img

I'm just including this here so people know how to fix it. I got no responses regarding it so I don't want anyone else to possibly go through the problems I did. Not that hard to open a command prompt and just go through fastboot flash... I actually prefer that myself

Based on what I've seen, the modem included with the J build was 14R, the same as that included with the E build.

Well this is the only thing that fixes it. So take it or leave it. If your Wi-Fi calling doesn't work on T-Mobile on that build this is your fix.

Oh, I'm not doubting you, and I appreciate the effort you've herein invested, but I ultimately would like to attain clarity on the situation, and I'm wondering if flashing the 14R modem, one would just as swiftly attain the same ends as you've provided in your OP...

I had tried that radio, it did not work. Wi-Fi calling and T-Mobile with that radio doesn't work. For whatever reason this J revision is the only one I have found that works.

As a side note I have Wifi calling with the M radio, also I never knew Wifi calling wasn't working on Pure Nexus and I've been on it since day one hah
Hoping more clarity to come
just wondering. would this work with CM ROM if I flash it, since CM ROM does not have WiFi calling? just a thought.

This doesn't work with Hydra kernel, but does work with Hells, BenzoCore and the pure nexus kernel.

This might be a stupid question. So If WiFi calling is enabled and call long distance do I get charge for it?

Actually everyone in Canada does if their plan doesn't include it, which is quite a few plans...

You would have to ask your carrier regarding that. I would call them and ask them if you use Wi-Fi calling will you be charged long distance? They may say yes or no. You aren't running off their cell tower, although it does go through their network. The answer could be 50/50... but it is worth asking at least.
I can't believe they charge you for long distance.... thats insane. They haven't done that in the US now for almost 15 years.

No, the rom itself needs to support the option. If the rom doesn't support it, then switching to this radio will not make it magically work. Ontop of the rom, the kernel needs to support it as well.

If you have Wi-Fi calling enabled, and you have Wi-Fi as the preferred calling method, you will see that while making a call it will say Wi-Fi call, then when you pull down your notification drawer, where it gives you your signal strength and says "T-Mobile" it will instead say "T-Mobile Wi-Fi Calling". That's how you can ensure it's working.
