Same here...I didn't even know the sound existed till I got the OTA update. Hopefully it has fixed some of the other kinks in my phone or I'm exchanging for my third G2.

Mine works fine when I have the option checked but since I don't care for it I turned it off.

This is interesting. My auto brightness had a similar thing happen: it was finally behaving properly for a short time, but then started setting the screen too bright for the circumstances again. I haven't had a chance to check the logs to see what light sensor readings are triggering brightness changes since it stopped working properly again. I do know that while it was working properly higher light sensor values were required to increase the brightness than before the update. I wonder if these issues are related.

Yes, I know to change my settings. I just doesn't work for me even after reinstalling the updates. I've also tried reverting back to my stock launcher.

It doesn't even work for me. I'm not on the OTA yet neither, with the stock launcher.

It only started working for me after the OTA and hasn't stopped working for me since.

its working for me after the update. It never worked prior to.

Mine also works now after OTA "manual" update. Going on day and a half after update and still working.

Mine work.
I opened up the OTA zip, and the sounds are in there in the \system\media\audio\ui folder, so that was clearly some sort of update. In the Settings -> Sound -> Volume section is Use Incoming Call Volume for Notifications checked? Also, what is your media volume? If these are correct, then I have no idea.

Mine are no longer working. Worked for a bit and then randomly spouted stopped. Not sure what's going on

It seems loading up maps and using the turn by turn navigation brings my lock sounds back

Bluetooth Issues

So, for some reason, my Bluetooth doesn't function properly as it should, which is weird, since my phone is still on stock, and the only modifications I've made are unlocking the bootloader and rooting the device. I also installed Power Toggles, but I don't think that's the issue at hand.
Pretty much, whenever I turn the bluetooth on, it tries for a while to turn it on, then gives up and won't let me turn it on. At that point, I have to restart the phone, and when it reboots back up, the bluetooth is on without me having to start it up. Then it works properly, but if I wish to use the bluetooth again the next day, I have to repeat the process of rebooting the device. Any ideas?
I had this issue when I Downloaded a FM radio app from the Play store to see if it would work. I just deleted the app. Went into safe mode then into normal mode and it fixed it.
Don't know what you case can be. But you can try going into safe mode and back to normal and see if there are any different results.

I had this same problem after installing Torque, and using it with default settings that auto-enabled/disabled bluetooth. After turning all that crap off it is back to normal.
I use bluetooth for audio playback and an hf/A2DP headset dialing via Motospeak, as well as Torque with a bluetooth odb2 interface, and it all works perfectly since disabling Torque's auto-bluetooth settings. My only issue is that it takes Motospeak a bit long to restore audio playback after a hf call command.
I would look for an app that you have that is the controlling bluetooth on/off.
I wonder if it isn't a software bug. I have the same issue but I don't have any apps that are causing the issue of atleast from what I can tell. I'm also unlocked and rooted.
I removed Bluetooth from Power Toggles. It's been two days and all seems well. Now we wait.

Nothing yet? I'm just curious as to whether it's just a few people experiencing this, or a lot, since there doesn't seem to be that much talk about it.
I use Bluetooth everyday on my way home from work just to connect to my Bluetooth headset. Out of 14 days I may get one day where I turn Bluetooth on that I don't have to reboot for it to work.

So we're on 4.2.2, I've went through safe mode and back a few times, and I've uninstalled and installed applications having to do with the Wi-Fi. Problem still seems to be there. It's just somewhat of a hassle to have to power down my phone completely, then start it back up, everytime I get into my car. I feel a hard reset mighttt fix the issue, but just looking for another way as of now.
My phone also have the same problem.. the bluetooth won't turn on.. stock 4.2.2 locked bootloader and not root yet.. anyone has a solution..

[Q] Wonky GPS on AT&T S4?

Hi all. I'm having a bit of GPS weirdness. GPS can get a lock quickly and accurately, however, I have to turn it off/on every time I open an app that uses it. Otherwise, it won't ever find the location. Once I turn it off/on it picks up and stays locked while the app is running. Also, if I switch to another app that uses GPS I have to do the same thing to get a location fix.
So obviously, the GPS function works, but something in the OS is not recognizing it until it's reset. Not the end of the world, but definitely annoying. Is anyone else seeing this?
This is on the AT&T version, by the way.
Thanks!
Check if you have GPS and Mobile Networks turned on for Location.
Else return it.... and get a new one... GPS has been quick and spot on...

GPS is quick and spot on. Per what I wrote, I have to turn it off and on for an app to be able to use it.

I've noticed this once, where something in the background was starting a GPS lock, but seemed to cancel, and retry before it ever succeeded. Turning the GPS and location services off, then back on worked for me. Haven't had an issue since.
If you haven't tried resetting to factory default, I suggest doing so.

Well, I was hoping for a bit more granular approach than a full reset. I'll wait until the new OTA is applied before doing anything drastic.

Less drastic than returning it. I suppose it depends on how attached you are to your current setup - but I would say if you're experiencing that issue repeatedly, the factory reset is exactly what you'd need. I doubt the OTA will address it since it appears to be an isolated problem.

Be my guest but to get the quickest results please just turn off all gps settings then do a battery pull. Restart it and turn the gps services back on... Viola

Nope, the issue is with ANY app that requests GPS data.
So, yeah. Today's OTA update did indeed fix this. i would press my own Thanks button, but that would be sinning!

Do you have yahoo weather installed ?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
I do not have yahoo weather installed. Another bit of info I forgot in last post:
I do sometimes, in a quick glance, see the gps icon running out of the blue. The notification of "acquiring gps signal bla bla" is present as well.. only to disappear within seconds. So it seems as if a specific service or application is using the gps in a faulty manner, blocking other services/applications from using it. May be why resetting the gps allows the application your trying to use access it. (my only fix)
If someone could read a logcat of what's going on I could post one up

I've actually been combing through the logcat output and see a line reappearing often referring to "no secgps file" I do remember on my previous devices messing around with that file and others for GPS configurations. Does anyone know if this file is supposed to be included in the stock rom?

[Q] Getting random alarms on tilapia. Setting I'm missing?

Hi. I decided to try this ROM on my tilapia after using SlimKAT for awhile. I like it so far, but every now and then it sounds like an alarm is going off. I have no alarms set, and when I unlock the screen when this happens there is nothing indicating what is causing it. It will stop after I unlock but it's annoying. I've had this on both the builds I've run (starting 7/23-7/24.) I just updated to 7/25. I am guessing there is a setting causing it but for the life of me I can't find it. Any help?

I don't think so. It happened yesterday while I was gone and my tablet was at my desk. A coworker had to silence it. I think I may know the problem. I'm guessing a notification for one of my email accounts got set to an alarm sound. I changed them all to regular notification sounds and haven't heard it in a couple of hours. We'll see if that was it.

I'm doing the swipe thing and it never works. I managed to get it to work ONCE yesterday, but I was in the settings for that feature. After that, even on that same settings page, it has never worked again.
Haven't tried flashlight notification, but I should try it since this phone lacks an led notification.

I just fixed my issue with the mini-view. Go to settings-Accessibility and make sure Switch Access is turned off. After disabling Switch Access, mini-view works.
I've enabled the flash on notification thing too. So far its working, but I need more time to test (to see if it just stops for some reason).

I have. Saw an old reddit post for LG v10 that solved it. You need to put your finger on the recent (square) and quickly and lightly flick slightly in either direction. Now it works every time for me. A flick, not a swipe.

Just a related update in-case Switch Access is off and miniview still isn't working...
This was my case where Switch Access was never turned on, but other apps were. I turned everything off one-by-one and back on again one-by-one and found that "Lookout" (that controls Safe Browsing) was causing my miniview not to work. I now have Switch Access and Lookout both off and it works again.
Hope this helps, too!

I have the lg v20 and I was having the same problem. The activation zone is very specific. Try swiping from the home button past the left edge, and I mean go off the edge. Tell me if that works for you. Techadict.com

Disabled outlook from the start and Switch Access is off, I still can't get the darn thing to work.
Some apps just break it really. I had parallel windows (an app that had an accessibility service and a spot on the screen you'd swipe from to activate) and miniview did not work at all. The activation hotspot didn't cover the navbar but I still couldn't get it to work. After I uninstalled it miniview worked perfectly fine. I dont have to swipe from specifically the recents key or anything like that, it works from any spot on the navbar.
There are quite a few apps that seem to break the functionality I've noticed. One that I used quite frequently was universal copy. Makes me wonder if it's an app that needs an accessibility service to work properly that does it as there was another one that needed it that also broke it

New Verizon Software update G955USQU1AQDF (5/12/2017)

Software Version: NRD90M.G955USQU1AQDF
This software update brings you the shopping feature for Bixby Vision, improvements to the screen settings, and essential bug fixes.
Shopping made easy with Bixby Vision
Open the Camera app, point the camera at the item you want to buy and tap the Bixby Vision button. When you tap the Shopping icon, Bixby searches for your item on Amazon.
Fine tune your Infinity Screen
Tune your display's color balance just the way you like it.
Tap the Settings icon.
Tap Display.
Tap Screen mode to adjust the settings.
This software update also fixes the "DQA keeps stopping" pop-up error reported by some users.
hopefully it is strictly improvements and no downsides.. downloading now
This update also seemed to fix my wifi disconnecting issue. It stays connected now. I also cleared system cache after upgrade.
I still have the pink tint at the edges. I wanted to like this phone but Samsung fooled me again.
This update broke my third party wireless charger. Had no problems with it before the update, now it only charges about 30 percent then stops, still have fast wireless charging option disabled.
It messed up messages for me. If I get a text that is over a couple of sentences long, it will split it up. Not an issue at all before the update.
I still have wifi disconnect issues even after the update
