I don't believe KG6 is the final OTA because I already found these bugs with it:
- Wifi range still shows weak
- Wifi calling still has audio and range problem
- Randomly loses data connection
- Randomly loses signal
If you have issues with this build as well, please post.
On KG6.
I've also had problems with incoming calls. Getting FC's after 1 ring then it goes to voicemail. Dialing out works fine though.
Can also confirm losing signal, I have to do a phone reboot because the phone gets stuck in airplane mode.
Good stuff.

So had anyone been able to back up and restore in gb... And advance restore the data
From a sammy with no hammy only jammy..
Yes. I restored my froyo data backup using the KG4 CWM kernel
PS
Don't forget to wipe your dalvik cache after you restore the data

Only with headphones that have a microphone, like the ones provided with the phone. With regular headphones the phone should utilize the phones microphone.
The only issues I am having so far is with low wifi. I had the issue with incoming calls crashing after first ring with kg4 but not with kg6. Only difference is with kg4 I did an advance data restore.

Last night I noticed every time I use my phone, rather I call or answer a call, its automatically on speaker phone and I have to turn the speaker off.
Infuse 2.2.1 rooted stock AWESOME WORKING ROM with all Go theme stuff...
what could be wrong? I can't figure it out.
Same issue here. It really confuses me.
I wonder if it has anything to do with the upgrade. I upgraded from 2.2 to 2.2.1 lastnight when all this started.
No mines doing it to can't figure it out. I haven't changed anything in over a month

On my Inspire there is a DOCK setting that would cause this. I do not know if the infuse has it or not but something you can look for?
It's a bug that happens when new rom is flashed and the phone apk gets messed up....
Could happen on any new rom and side effect is always the same - call is answered and immediately goes to speaker phone...
Have to wipe data/factory reset and flash again usually...

I have been having the issue on my Infuse as well, in addition to screen rotation being stuck on, no matter if I turn off the settings to do so. After finding the dock settings under general settings, telling my phone to force an undock, this fixed the issue. A side note, I have a backup battery case that is always plugged in; I had to remove the case to turn off the docking settings, because with the case the phone always thought it was docked.
I hope this helps.
Was wondering if there's a way to fix the low in-call volume over wifi? I'm currently on the latest kj6 stock ROM, with the kj1 kernel and modem. This only occurs with calls over wifi. Will the paid voodoo app help fix this, if so please help me with the setting. Thanks in advance for your help.

Good question; I'm not 100% sure. I'm wanting to say a lot of people went back to KJ1 from KJ6 due to the inability to send large SMS messages. Though I can't say if any of them are using wifi calling & having the low volume issue. Have you tried just flashing another modem to see if it makes a difference?

I've always had this problem, though I haven't used KJ6 for more than a day...
As you've said, the long text issue was annoying, and it also wouldnt let me send pics.
I use kj6 with Kj1 kernel... wifi calling has no issues for me. I use it for 100% of calls at home as I have no cell coverage here.
Edit: just a note.... I haven't had this issue since early gb roms.

The reason I flashed the kj1 modem was cos of the long sms messages not sending. So I guess I'll need to call t-mobile and see what they say about this. Thanks guys for tour help.
PS: will also flash a different modem and test that out in the meantime.

Okay I flashed the kj5 modem and although the volume is still low, it's significantly a little louder than before. Upon adjusting the volume, it only lets me go no higher than the mid point as opposed to the lowest audible setting only on the kj1 modem. This is really baffling, and of-course when I call t-mo, they'll treat me like I don't have a clue about what I'm talking about. I'll continue to test this and report any other findings. Thanks guys.

The that worked before i flashed to either Valhalla or Octane was Black Ice Voodoo from Krylon360
here is all i could find
http://androidforums.com/incredible...people-cant-hear-me-without-speakerphone.html
so what this states is that some have success with factory reset, and/or clearing the caches several times. or it could be an app, try simply simple rom.
could be an app, some say problem with head phone jack and suggest to clean "There was an issue with the headphone jack. Take a set of headphones (ear buds) and dip the plug into some alcohol. Slide the plug in and out of the jack several times. Wipe the plug and repeat."
'This happens to me when i unplug the headphones without exiting music player remix first. To fix, I restart the musicplayer, plug them in, exit the program, unplug.
The thread "stuck in headset mode" talks about the other variations of the problem."
or an app, like voice recorder is set on it to automatically turn on speaker phone.
so if still having problems after all this then its a hw problem, so fix go to t-mobile or put speaker phone on all the time by using voice recorder app. you have to look into how to do that. i hope i help some what.

Anyone having a problem with the sound going out on there phone? I have Val final with kj6 theme from racing.
This morning I woke up and didn't have sound out of my speaker. Even though I heard the alarm. I rebooted and it was fine. Then it did it again. I fixed permissions and all was good then it did it again but this time it was just hooked up to the aux jack working. Since I didn't have sound out of the speaker I put it back on the aux Jack and I had nothing. I hit the lock screen gave it a few seconds and it came back. Any ideas?

I do that before and after I flash a ROM. I've now flashed 3 different roms with the same problem. I'm thinking its either a hardware problem or I need to Odin a ROM and start fresh. I've only been using cwm at the moment since I can't get my laptop to see my phone.

This is a modem from the Sidekick 4G. It has the same radio as our phone so it is safe to use. I have been using it for the last day and have experienced better performance, more signal stability, and less reboots.
Current known issues: none
Current known fixes: fixes text send error for messages larger than 160 characters
Fixes wifi speed issues in some Roms
Reported better signal for some people
Flash instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S/SGH-T959V/Flashing_a_modem
This is experimental. I am not responsible if you break your phone, etc. If it doesn't work for you, it's not hard to flash back to our modem. This will not brick your phone unless you do something stupid. I am not here to teach you how to flash. Read the wiki.
There are two modems here, KJ2 and KD1. Try them both and see what works best for you. KD1 worked better for me. KJ2 was finicky with data.
I hope this helps!!!

Flashed both and I couldnt connect to the Google play store. Tried uninstalling updates and everything. Once I went back to the one I was running (sorry forgot which one it is) everything worked again. This was on unnamed.
Kd1 connects to play store without issue, I'm running vb-final

Kj2 Seems fine. Definitely more stable connection, and ping response times on speed test are way better, averaging around 60ms. GPS works, play store works, correct time is shown, etc etc. Will continue to test and keep posted on the reboot issue.

Guys, just a tip.
Flashing modems through cwm is "DANGEROUS".
Suppose you have t959v kj6 modem, and you have wifi on, and then you flash t839ukv kj2.
You may go into a soft bootloop. (Turn on, 15 seconds later, soft reboot, turn on...etc)
This is solvable by reflashing your old modem.
In order to avoid this error TURN "OFF" WiFi BEFORE FLASHING.

Never thought about the potential issue with flashing a modem before. I hadn't had any issues, but I'm never on wifi...this is useful to know!
I'm pretty sure I had my wifi on and I can turn it on and off just fine.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA
Turning on and off isn't the problem. Once you are on the new modem for more than 5 minutes, there is no problem.
Just don't flash while it is on.

I flashed with wifi-enabled, and it didn't cause any problems. So far I've gone 10 hours without a reboot. The only problem I've had is it's a little slower connecting to mobile data in low signal areas.
