[Q] Text to Speech not working in PA or AOKP - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Hi everybody. I just moved over here from the Droid X2 crowd. I kept my S3 stock for a grand total of maybe a week and a half before I decided to root it, and then I discovered TTS no longer worked. Here is what I've done:
Followed droidstyle's guide to rooting, unlocking (using 1.2), and installing CWM
Backed up IMEI using WildZontar's methods A & B
Nandroid backup (what is this1970 nonsense?)
Installed AOKP using aokp_d2vzw_jb_build-5.zip & gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip (md5 confirmed) following installation instruction
Discover that TTS does not work. It looks like all voice files are installed, but nothing happens when I press Listen to an Example. No sound or error. For both Google and Pico.
(Also, Talk was a little wonky)
Installed PA using pa_d2vzw-2.50-22OCT2012-211214.zip & gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip again (md5 confirmed) following installation instruction
Same thing. No TTS
Nandroid back to rooted. TTS is fine here
Reinstall AOKP from here. Nope, still no TTS
More info on my phone:
Baseband version: I535VRLG7
Kernel: 3.0.8-993945-user
Build number: IMM76D.I545VRALG7
Looking into it, I don't see anyone else having the same trouble recently. When JB first came out, people experienced the same problem because of a missing file - system\lib\libpatts_engine_jni_api.so - which wasn't included in ICS GAPPS. But current JB GAPPS packages have this file.
That isn't my culprit. I've also tried using the old gapps-jb-20120726-signed.zip, but nada. I'm out of ideas. Please help, xda!

Figured it out. This is a known problem apparently, but it no one mentioned it's effect on TTS. The solution was to adjust volume to max, then min, then to whatever you want. This issue also affects alarms and notifications, apparently.

[Q] [SOLVED] com.google.process.gapps stopped working

System Specs:
TF101
Android Version: 4.1.1 (now 4.1.2)
Kernel Version: 2.6.39.4 CyanogenMod RaymanFX DHD (now 2.6.39.4ASUS [email protected] #1 Sat Oct 13 19:34:10 CEST 2012)
CyanogenMod Version 10-20120916-UNOFFICIAL-tf101 (now 10-20121013-UNOFFICIAL-tf101)
Problem
com.google.process.gapps stops working
What I have done so far:
Cleared cache
Cleared davlik cache
Removed Gmail account and re-added
Disabled ALL sync options
What I did to get here:
Installed TWRP (replaced Clockwork Recovery)
Installed CM10
Installed GooManager (for gapps)
Restored ALL apps I had/wanted back from the Play store
This problem occured immediately after I finished installing all apps. I dont know what one app might have caused this. I am trying to avoid a factory reset, but it seems this may not be avoidable at this current step. My question is, what else is there I can do short of a factory reset?
EDIT 1: just found out the GAPPS i am using is for 4.1.2. Would this cause the issue since i am on Android 4.1.1?
EDIT 2: Re-flashed the GAPPS from GooManager and it seems to be working better. I will update after testing it throughout my 24 hour duty.
EDIT 3: I let it go to "sleep" and when i woke it up, the process failed again.
EDIT 4: Used another version of GAPPS for Tegra. Now trebuchet crashes after going to sleep. Seems the GAPPS is the cause of the problem. Is there a stable version for my device and CM10? The latest crashes the com.process.google.gapps and the later crashes trebuchet
.
EDIT 5: After a night of troubleshooting, I found out i was using version B3 instead of V6 of CM10. Thus the Android version of 4.1.1 instead of 4.1.2. I just flashed V6 to my tablet and now I am testing the device for compatibility with the first version of GAPPS that i had installed earlier. I will post results after my tests.
EDIT 6: So far so good, everything seems to be running normally. I have not had any problems for the last five hours. I hope this fixed my problem
EDIT 7: So after waking up to my tablet sleeping, i woke it and the process failed again. Is there a compadible GAPPS zip out there somewhere?
EDIT 8: Ok, so I decided to do a factory wipe, install CM10 V6 fresh. Then install google apps filename "gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip" Seems that the google apps keeps failing. I even unchecked all the sync options and didn't put my account in until after i installed the google apps. At this time there are NO apps installed other than the default CM and GAPPS. I am officially stumped. HELP PLEASE!
EDIT 9: I did a factory wipe, no re-install of CM10 or GAPPS, just a standard wipe followed by clearing both caches. Upon reboot it wanted my credentials for google. Seems to be working ok, meaning it GAPPS is not crashing at this current moment. However, it has dropped WiFi on me while it went to sleep and came back. I told it to not turn WiFi off when it sleeps, but alas, it seems to be broken. Also, it lockes up randomly, and the only way to recover is to hold the power button to turn it off and then reboot. Thoughts?
EDIT 10: Changed to the nightlys from CM and updated to the most recent GAPPS. Everything is working great. Minus some of the things that have already been mentioned. My lock screen disappears ever so often. Also, I have noticed that when not charging, the tablet will shut down at 49% when sleeping. I don't know if that is a feature of the CM10, but it is annoying. I have yet to have any random lock ups, but some of my apps won't work anymore. I have noticed that some apps will work one moment, the next it will have a video failure, but the sound will continue and the process will continue. Just the video display will be stuck on one image. For example, Jetpack Joyride does this. Also, Song Pop Free will not work, among some other apps. So, I guess I have to wait for a Jelly Bean update for some of these apps.
I've had a similar issue with gapps, usual provoked by accessing gmail or maps however I did have the same issue with the stock rom.

I appreciate the info, was this with ICS or Jelly Bean? I am assuming with your stock you mean ICS. Am I missing something about GAPPS? Is there a better compatible build for this?
.. just go to the settings and then click on the application manager and then click on all and then scroll to download manager and enable it if it is disabled. .......Thanks. ....

[Q] Failed to trim [ROM][4.1.2][CM10][UNOFFICIAL]LG Optimus One Family CM10 Build 7

Hi,
I have rooted my P500 since Froyo until to Gingerbread. I also helped my friend to root and install JB 4.2 on his Kindle Fire. Now I try to install JB 4.2 in my P500 using Rashed97 build 7 custom ROM but to all failure :crying:
The error was always failed to go into Google Play, there will be an error [RH-01]. After some investigation I found out that this is due to the Google Service Framework was never successfully install and run normally.
I am using this combination:
JB 4.2 ROM - cm-10-20130108-UNOFFICIAL-p500.zip
GAPPS - gapps-jb-4.2.1-light-20130107-signed.zip
I read hundreds of post in that thread and everyone is teaching about trimming the ROM before installing the GAPPS. So I tried to trim it both manually and using the OOne Rom editor. (Moving some apps as User Apps, using trimmed version LatinMe.apk, removing fonts, media, and etc) No luck as well; Google Service Framework just don't want to run According to the internal memory, I should still have 20MB++ of free space and I also check the /system/app and googleserviceframework.apk was in there. When I go to the "Settings -> Apps -> All" to find Google Service Framework but never found, it wasn't running at all even though it is in the system/app.
I try to see if I trim it correctly, so I try JB 4.1 combination:
JB 4.1 ROM - cm-10-20121110-UNOFFICIAL-p500.zip
GAPPS - gapps-jb-4.1.2-light-20121130-signed.zip
This time I use the Bill's tool, OOne Rom Editor, to trim it and try installing it... guess what, it works! Google Service Framework manage to run... So I am confused... Is it me or something else did I missed out in trimming the JB 4.2 Rom?
Anyone manage to make it happen? Can give some guidance?
Thanks
Silly me...
I think I know what is the problem already... Build 7 is CM 10 JB 4.1.2, it is not JB 4.2
Installing GAPPS for version JB 4.2 definitely not going to work... Stupid me... :silly:
After trying to install the GAPPS for JB 4.1. It works fine now :good:

First try CyanogenMod. I need some help here

Hi. Noob on Forum.
I decided to Install CyanogenMod on my Xoom MZ601 model.
Bootloader unlocked, cwm installed, Cyanogenmod also installed without problem.
I use the last NIGHTLY-BUILD ---> cm-10.1-20130410-NIGHTLY-everest.
Now the problem. I tried to install gapps.
I downloaded the latest gapps for jelly bean 4.2.2 ----> gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip from goo.im/gapps/ (cannot write the complete url on the second post)
Install zip from sdcard etc using cwm. And everything seems to be perfect.
Except one. None google app is not installed. Or at least not shown nowhere on my apps.
Any idea what's wrong? How to fix that? I like jelly bean but I need gtalk, youtube, play store, google maps etc.
Same here

I have the same problem as well. It's due to the amount of space partitioned for system apps. I can't figure out how to change that yet, but a temporary work around...flash the app store by itself

Running great so far
Just flashed this morning and is running great! Fantastic job on this rom! My phone is also running much cooler and smoother than the rom I had before (Blisspop v3.2 experimental w/ 777 kernel and thermal mods). Battery life is also much better than what I was running before.
[Q] What is the upgrade process from 12.0?
I have been reading the 12.1 thread, and a number of people have reported problems with dirty flashing over 12.0, especially if gapps are not flashed at the same time. Is there an approved method? If so, it would be helpful if it were placed at the beginning of the official ROM thread.
Thanks,
Alan
Having trouble setting custom ringtones and notification sounds on 12.1. Had no issue on 12. Can anyone advise? All I'm getting are the stock cm sounds. No option to pick from another file.

Here's what I did and it's working perfectly fine:
0. Optional - backup your user apps (I use Titanium backup). Boot into recovery and make a backup of your system image (nandroid).
1. Full-wipe/factory reset (it won't erase your pictures, music, or downloads on your internal and external sd cards)
2. Flash CM12.1
3. Wipe dalvic cache and cache
4. Flash Gapps (I happen to use Banks Gapps - you can google it since I can't post links yet)
5. I don't know if this is necessary, but I wipe dalvic cache and cache again.
6. Reboot system.

You might have to use a different file explorer other than "media storage" to search for your custom ringtones and notification sounds. That or you'll have to move your sound files into the ringtone and notifications folders.

I use es file Explorer but it's not even giving me the option of using a file Explorer to find files. It only gives me the menu with the builtin options.
Edit: Weird, after updating to the next nightly, it allowed me to pick from file explorer. Solved, I guess?
As mentioned by someone else in the main ROM thread, I'm having issues with "OK Google" detection. I've tried simple fixes like dirty-flashing the ROM/GAPPs again, deleting data/cache for Google play services, making sure all the apps are updated, etc. I've had this problem on 05-03 through 05-05 nightlies.
The error I get when I attempt to activate the "OK Google" from any screen (or try to retrain it) is "Can't use the microphone. Restart your device."

"OK Google" from any screen works perfectly for me and I am on the 5/4/15 nightly. Try a clean wipe and re-flash?

5ghz
I know lollipop has had some hit or miss issues with 5ghz networks, but I had been pretty lucky until I updated to 5.1. Now I have the common problem where my 5ghz bands don't even show up. Is there a fix for this anywhere? I've done some digging and the only thing I've found was a flashable file some guy made for the OnePlus One. I had been on nightly 03/24 for a long time cause it seemed to be great (was using 5ghz bands at my house daily), but I decided it had been a while so I flashed 05/03. At first, I had the dirty flash gapps issues, so I just ended up doing a clean install (and now I'm on 05/07), but I have the wifi problem: no 5ghz networks detected. I've forced frequency to 5ghz... I've tried rebooting into airplane mode... nothing. Any help or updates on this problem?
Where is the ambient display settings and how does ambient display work?

disregard... 05/03 was causing the problems, but after flashing 05/07 twice, I can now see and connect to 5ghz (though it's not super stable - but it works).
Anyone else having issues with Google app wake locks. Privacy guard shows that it is constantly listening for audio. Makes me want to switch launchers(away for Google now launcher) and remove Google now completely.

IR Blaster
Flashed this earlier tonight, and thus far the only issue I have is using the IR Blaster. Does anyone know if there's a fix for this or if it is a known issue? Other than that, I am digging CM12 on my G3. Thanks OP. I have been waiting to get back to CM since I retired my GS3.

I had this problem also. Fixed by installing a different gapps. The one I used was from itvends.com/gapps.
sleep of death
I've noticed a relatively rare SOD incidence with the D850 on CM11, CM12 and now CM12.1. I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this, and if there are any thoughts on what it might be related to. There are tons of app/system interactions that could lead to a SOD deadlock in android, so it's entirely likely that this only triggers for some, but not all users.

Problem with Camera 4k
I cannot record video with the camera using 4K for more than 10 seconds. I have high speed Micro SD and it still does not work. I have enough space on the phone storage and cannot record it there either. Not sure what is going on. Anyone have the problem? I searched for a long time all over the web and cannot find anything about it. I have done a total wipe and clean install and still no go. I have tried different camera apps including the ones that you install with an APK.
Anyone???

[Q] CM 12.1 Nighty 20150503 + "Ok Google"

Hi everybody,
just installed CM12.1-20150503 and so far it seems to work.
Now I'm trying to get the "OK Google" - everywhere feature working but at the point when the google app wants to train by listening one saying "OK Google" three times, a message appears that the microphone could not be accessed and to reboot the device. Of course, rebooting didn't help (Screenshots are in german).
The installation is a complete fresh on, saying:
1.) Complete Wipe / Factory Reset
2.) Flashed CM12
3.) fastboot'ed boot.img
4.) Installed current gapps (12.1 - 20150503)
Can anybody confirm this or give me a hint?
Thx a lot!

Hi,
I have the same problem with galaxy s5 klte. Clean install of cm12.1 + gapps 5.1.1. If someone found the solution I'm interested too.
Thanks
I think I've found a solution. If you have downloaded the gapps package on the official cm website like me it's probably that. This package only size ~80 mo, regular package size around 200 mo, something was probably missing. I haven' time to check zip but it works for me.
So I have reflashed all with an other gapps package like the one in this post or a PA gapps package here.
Re wipe or you can have FC of Gmail and google app.
Hope it will help.
