[Q] WeChat voice (PTT) not working with RAZR HD Jelly Bean update, fix? - RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Basically that. Had Wechat and I used it to talk with my GF in China. The push to talk worked fine prior to the update.
The Jelly Bean update happened earlier today, and the PTT feature doesn't work anymore. Reinstalled WeChat and that didn't help things. Sent something to WeChat but who knows if they'll respond to that...
Anyone know if there's a way to fix this, either specific to this app or working for a variety of similar chat programs?
FIX: Disable the Low-bitrate Recording option in settings -> general. Low-bitrate is the default option so maybe this can help someone else out...

I have the same problem on my S3 ...
I can only use "Line" to communciate w/ ppl in China now!!!
I also msged WeChat ... and of coz no reply!!

google talk with cm10

I have searched the forums and haven't found anything about being able to use google talk (video chat) with cm10. I haven't posted enough to put this question into the cm10 forum. So if someone wants to put this question into that forum I would appreciate that.
Thanks

I just came across this issue while trying to do a phone to phone (over LTE4g) Gtalk video chat (i did a google search and found your post). Once we finally got video chat to connect the person on the other end (galaxy nexus running CM10 M1build) could not hear me, I was able to hear them. We repeated the process 2 or 3 times but I was not able to get them to hear me until i switch to my desktop. I have the VZW SGS3 running CM10 9/17build. Sorry i cant be of more help, but maybe this will bring light to any Gtalk video chat issues that might exist.

I have the same problem with CM10 9/20.
Also... The voice dial app does not hear me either. Google Now does. I wonder if there is a problem with the way these programs are initializing the microphone. This is also making it impossible to call using only a bluetooth headset.
I could receive the call but camera could never connect. Was a little frustrating.
I did find something about talk working in cm but not in cm10 yet. I'm sure that this will be fixed soon.

One thing that I didn't try was fixing permissions. not sure if that would fix the problem that I have with google chat
I have the same problem CM10 M1 and 9/23 d2spr

I couldn't find any CM10 builds older than M1, but I am also experiencing a low mic gain/volume when using the walkie-talkie app Voxer. This was first noticed on Euroskank builds after 09/17. 09/17 is the last Euroskank build that performs normally pertaining to the mic gain problem. I also factory/devlik wiped and loaded CM10 M1 and CM10 09/23 and am experiencing the same issue. This also occurs in Miui's 2.9.21 BETA (CM10 9/23 based) rom.

That would be unlikely to help. Permissions effect the filesystem and read/write access. If you can install apps then it is probable that your permissions are fine.

[Q] SMS/MMS Alert

I don't know if there is a thread out there already asking this specifically or not but, does anyone know of a good SMS/MMS visual alert? I used to have the app NoLED. But they've changed it up so much that it doesn't work as good on my Samsung Infuse 1997. It used to allow me to (assign a photo) so when I would get a text or phone call the contacts photo would pop up (so convenient!) Now they've changed it, and the whole app sucks! :crying: Does anyone know of something similar?
Thanks in advance!

Why just use the old version of the NoLED that was working before? you have a freedom not to update the software to newest version.

[Q] WeChat and "find people near you" works for you?

Same here. it seems that the wechat app is not very compatible with android 4.4 and/or nexus 5 yet. It also restarts the app when trying to change your profile photo. Hopefully these will be fixed soon.
It seemed that the problem is with WeChat developer in fixing FC and problems with the Apps - comments posted are full of reports with the latest update citing kitkat 4.4 compatibility, which apparently isn't so.
Thanks for the feedback!

I had the change profile photo problem on Nexus 4 Kit Kat. After selecting "choose photo", you have to click the top-left icon(with 3 parallel bars) next to "recent", then select Gallery (if it doesn't appear by default). If you select directly without going thru' Gallery then it FC.
same on ArchiDroid 2.3.1 Samsung Galaxy S3

Hi, just wanted to add ArchiDroid 2.3.1. on Samsung Galaxy S3 to the list as well. However I do love this ROM too much to downgrade just for WeChat. Sorry ladies lol

[Q] Huawei Ascend Mate 7 E mail Notification Problems

Dear Friends , I just bought my Huawei Ascend Mate 7 MTL 10 32 GB, now with me for one week, I think it is a great device really, i call him the Father of my all mobiles before!. anyhow, I have two problems annoying me , The first one is that e mails reaches the inbox without notifying me once they arrived neither by sound, nor by icon in the notification bar. I have tried every possible setting that you can imagine. more i have searched online, but it seems that it is my only problem(or no one reported it yet)
The notification with sound and in the notification bar only happens when i open the e mail app. it happens mostly with the built in apps (that i setup for my Hotmail and Yahoo) otherwise the gmail app is doing fine.
My second problem is that My Volvo S60 Infotainment system is not fully compatible with the Bluetooth of my new HM7 , as i was able to use Kakao and Viber with my car speakers before with my Samsung Galaxy S5 but now I cannot with HM7.
I really appreciate anyone response about that.
Thanks
you are not a lone
Dear Friend,
don't worry , i have the same issue and still not finding any solution , it is a global issue not only for you and me.
i will try to send an email to huawei to check and send us new update with resolution.

Same problem also for P7 modell of my collegue...seems to be a EMUI problem with certain (customer) applications (Whatsapp also...).
For email I managed it by using GMAIL and application called UNREAD BADGES FOR GMAIL, in other words a widget designed for GMAIL app and available in the GOOGLE STORE (free) and it works. You have to set up well the energy consumption settings and the notification settings, and then it should work.
Well, thank you all for your support and comments, as a matter of fact, few days after i posted my problem here , i spent almost half a day searching for a solution in this forum and over the internet and my conclusion is , Do not waste your time find a solution because there is non, some people having notification with e mail only like myself, others has it with Whatsapp( more annoying) , i read a full thread here in this forum about every possible solution for the problem, from settings of notifications , power saving , Network settings for data and Always on Wifi. Actually reading that thread was extremely interesting, some people are trying to help the one who started the thread (Mr)(Microdog), others sarcastic and Microdog desperately wants to solve the problem as he likes the phone so much (just like myself) and then at the end guess what? the guy decided to sell the phone! and others persuading him to wait, it was so so funny. i loved it. although , i did not find the solution for my problem but i realized that we human beings have remarkable built in desire to help each other no matter anything( I am not religious by the way) , any how , i decided to live with the condition till the new update will come by end of January or February 2015 may be it will solve the problem, because trust me this is one of the best phones that i have ever had!
NB: for you who want to have a look on the thread that i mentioned above (may be it will work for you) please look here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-7/help/push-notification-data-screen-off-t2985489
NB: I think in one of the posts , there is someone is doing some app to fix the problem, i tried it and it is not working , and unfortunately it delayed all the e mail notifications more , so i had to uninstall it and did hard rest, so please take care.
wishing all of you the best, thanks

yeah, i was one of those who tried to help.). i even persuaded @microdog to not sell his mate 7, but i guess i was too late.
I received b127 update a few days ago but there is still the problem with the e-mail notifications. I have the exchange notification in the panel and blinking led as well but without any ringtone.

Well, that is a disappointment, I was expecting this guys in Huawei will fix that issue with the new update. I think maybe the problem is in their EMUI . We have to raise this problem to Huawei again.
Same problem here !
I had to use 3rd party app "myMail" and it's working great !
100 % than stock email app !

It is the stock email app, although i do experience times where i miss sound notifications, when i have switched between vibration and silent modes. I can't seem to figure out the trigger.
As for email, I use Aquamail, but have also used , cloudmagic, k9, blue mail and boxer, all notifications worked (i tested a bunch to see which had best push times and battery usage).
The notifications worked on all third party email apps for me, so i think it may be an inherent problem with the stock app, but could also be a system wide issue as i do get sound drop outs for some apps randomly as I mentioned before. I have checked all the notification, power settings, screen off etc.. so i think it may be a system bug, corrects on reboot. Hopefully next update fixes it.

Go to settings > protected apps and protect them. Otherwise they may be unprotected and closed when you close the applications. In order to receive the notifications, the application must be running in the background to work. It consume more battery but there is no other way.

Can't Record Calls after Mashmallow? Tried Multiple Apps

Hi guys,
On my stock Z5C before Marshmallow update I was successfully running (and recording) calls with the "Voice Recorder" app from Splend Apps. It worked well, although the sound quality was not great. Well, recently I updated the phone to Android 6.0 and today I tried using Voice Recorder but it gave me an error message: "do you have another app trying to record the call" or something like this.
First reaction was to install another app and get it to work. Well, two apps later (ACR & Call Recorder) and now I suspect this is related to Android 6.0 and not the apps.
Any suggestion on how to tackle this? Preferably without getting into in-depth rooting and things like this?
Thanks in advance,
BB

Interesting, but after reading some of the reviews I am not so confident this is 100% guaranteed to work.. and it does not seem like they offer a trail version. I explicitly believe the issues I have found are related to Android 6.0 and not the apps that I tried using, so unless I can try the app in advance I wont purchase it.

Read carefully app's description in play store, there's a link for the trial, right here, on xda forums.
It also works ok on my z5.
