[Q] sgh t989 problem with custom roms - General Questions and Answers

I just started installing roms into my t989 and have tried 3 so far. Problem is that, when I make a call with any rom except stock JB 4.1.1 and use the speakerphone, the person who I am talking to gets huge amount of echo. Tried so far jedi mind trick, avatar and cm10.1. Am I doing something wrong? Otherwise, everything else is great just can`t use the speakerphone. Thanks for any help.

[Q] Voice Dialer STILL not working on android 4.2.2

Words fails me. I am so disgusted I have ran out of expletives so I won't bother repeating them here. Seriously...voice dialer is STILL not working! This update was specifically designed to fix this bug and it is still not working. I just can't understand what is so hard about putting back in functionality that was working before in ICS and was necessary.
This is the sort of thing that gets people to switch over irrevocably to apple. This has been going on for like a year now. It is starting to feel like it is being done on purpose for God knows what reason. Does it work for anyone else?

What update? This phone is officially on 4.1.1 . You are not guaranteed anything by running custom software.

Fair enough. Although I never said I was guaranteed anything and apparently we are also not guaranteed to have important functionality (aka voice dialer) to work from one official release to the next. It worked fine when I had ICS it just broke when I was upgraded to JB. I would prefer not to have to root my phone to get it work, but if I waited for the official channels then I will likely have to wait until I get my next phone for a fix.
Both Google and AOKP mentioned that bluetooth issues were fixed with 4.2.2 and I was inquiring whether this worked for others as it did not work for me. Neither 4.1.1, nor 4.1.2 nor 4.2.1 nor 4.2.2 nor any of the other little hacks others have tried have worked and I know others on the official release of 4.2.2 for Nexus had similar problems so I was hoping someone might have run across a solution.
I know I sounded snarky, but I am just really frustrated.
So I do not know if this will help you but I had pacman rom and the dialer wasn't working so I reflashed, no wiping and it fixed it.
Also there is always the option of going back to the stable TW roms. Which is what I did. You can't be mad for things not running smooth when you're running custom roms that make no claims of stability.

Thanks for the info, it was definitely worth a try. Alas the pacman rom did not do the trick. I had the official JB TW update and that is what broke my phone in the first place and I am not really interested in going back to ICS since I got the new phone so I can get Jelly Bean. I have also tried CleamROM and the the latest CM, AOKP and liquidSmooth 4.2.2 along with the just released gapps-jb-130301-signed.zip. No dice.
I'll keep banging away and let everyone know if I find a solution with other ROMs or tweaks.
I am not mad about custom ROMs not working properly I am mad about the official release breaking critical functionality for me.
I tried PK and PA ROMs in addition to aready mentioned. Voice dial does not work in any of them. I also tried Ktoonsez kernel - no dice. I think it's a major JB problem and there won't be any working ROM until Google fixes the issue. I just stopped trying :crying: ...

CM10.1 is a 4.2.2 based rom shich are not as stabe as 4.1.X based roms - I'd suggest flashing back to stock from Odin, doing a data wipe/factory reset - you can download all the latest firmware from sammobile.com - then root it and just use 4.1.x based roms.
I've never had luck with 4.2.x based roms on my I9300 or P3110.

Not likely. You can't make that drastic a change without wiping. If you don't, all sorts of things won't work right.

[Q] Wi-fi problems on 4.2.2 Roms

Hello all, each time I go to the Wi-Fi Settings, i get "Settings isn't responding". The weird thing is that it happens with all the 4.2.2 Roms I tried (Andromadus, PacMan, BlindnDumb's unofficial) but on 2.3.7 and 4.0.4 Roms, everything works fine.
If anyone knows why and how to fix it, that'd be awesome
Thanks.

i am also experiencing this kind of problem, does anyone know a solution for this?
on andromadus b18 and below, and jellyfirebean v2 wifi is working..other roms wifi not working..
Got it working !
Hey, I got the wifi working on flinny's Andromadus CM10.1 but the thing is I didn't really do anything special. :silly:
After having the wifi broken on 4.2.2 Roms, I switched to MIUI on Android 4.1.2. Few weeks later, I flashed the CM10.2 Rom and its gapps available here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2467013 . Wifi was working on this Rom but I had other troubles so I went back to MIUI.
Today, I flashed flinny's Andromadus CM10.1 Rom and, I don't understand how but, the Wifi is working ...
It might be magical but try flashing all these Roms the same way I did and see the result.
Good luck.

Trying to find best ROM. Need GPS!

Question #1: GPS
I have the Samsung Galaxy S 4G which has been long rooted and I've installed a few roms now on it. Recently I upgraded to Revolt 4+ which is my first attempt to find a Jelly Bean ROM that will work for me. Well, I love it. Only problem is that it seems it doesn't have GPS? Google Maps work but Navigation doesn't follow me which I'm guessing means it's using internet to "find" me. There's no GPS flashing icons nor are there any settings for GPS. Is there anyway to get it working or is it just not working for this ROM?
Question #2: Aries?!
Many of the roms mention "Aries's common bugs" but google searching it gives me nothing. Where can I find information about Aries?
Question #3: The latest fully-working ROM?
There are soooo many ROMs to choose from for the SGS4G that I don't know what to look for. I found and have been using THIS page but not sure how outdated/accurate it is. Anybody know the best/most recommended ROM right now that has all the main parts working? GPS, WIFI...etc? I know wifi calling always has issues but not important.
:good: to anybody who is able to help with any of the above!
Hi.
#1 All JB ROMs (meaning 4.1.2 and above) have Aries kernel.
it is faster than Herrig kernel used before, and should be more stable, but, no developer was able to make GPS work with it. so, there's currently no JB ROM with a working GPS.
#2 If you want a working GPS you will need ICS (4.0.3/4.0.4) ROM :
CM9/AOKP/Slim/MIUI/Ultragen etc.
I'm a MIUI freak so I can say I love HebMIUI which is an upgraded MIUI version I came up with. you can try it (see my signature) or any of the others I mentioned.
Slight addendum to #1. Not entirely true. Some of the earlier JB ROMs were still Herring. The various 4.2 Wifi-bugs were on Herring. Any ROM where they tell you to do the 4.1.2 JB if you wanted Wifi, it's a Herring kernel. For that matter, I believe we've only had compiled 4.2.2 and above Aries here. So if the ROM is 4.1.2 JB, it's Herring. If it's 4.2.2 without working Wifi, it's probably Herring. If it's 4.2.2 with Wifi or 4.3, it's probably Aries.
Agree on ICS/GB for GPS though. HebMIUI or Ultragen 1.01 (DO NOT USE ULTRAGEN 1.00 AND POST BUG REPORTS) are probably your best ICS options.
THANK YOU both for clearing up alot of stuff for me. Thank you x2 for itzik2sh for recommending HebMIUI. I have it installed and I love it sofar. Hopefully somebody figures out JB GPS eventually.
I'll still check back here if anybody else has anything else to throw in.

Soundproblem after flashing carbon custom Rom 4.3.1 JB

Hello, I had my desire s on stock 4.04 Ics with Hboot 2.02.0002 unlocked and rooted. Then I flashed with carbon Rom 4.3.1 JB. Everything worked fine and my Desire S works fine. Except the sound. Whenever somebody calls me the sound is breaking down. No alarm, ringtone or other sound is played. Even no music can be played. I need then to completely restart my Desire S. This works fine until any other notification (callback whatsapp or other) comes.
I am at the very end of my latin. I am trying since days to solve this problem.
It would be great if I could get any hint or tip for either solving the problem or at least to find out the cause of this strange behavior.
I hope on you all.
Please help.!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks in advance.
