So I flashed the new JL1 firmware last night to try it out and thus far its been a pretty solid firmware. The only problems I have found so far is that the vibration function does not work at all. and the market is missing apps like Paypal and a few others that I usually use. you can set it to always vibrate and leave haptic feedback on but when you go to adjust the vibration nothing happens as far as the phone vibrating. I just missed 2 calls and a text message because the phone didnt vibrate. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem and while the ideas are flowing, how to root JL1. I miss having root so I can run my usual programs.
the vibration is confirmed as not working in JL1, no workaround it is a bug in a leaked firmware, not official. Go back to what you were running previously.
I know nothing about the vibration issue / how to fix it. Nothing in JL1 worth staying on it now, nandroid to what you were on before.
However, the Market issue is fairly common per these leaked official TMO roms. The fingerprint has changed so the market doesn't yet recognize it. Often downloading a few things, paid / purchased and then rebooting a few times makes them return. However, if it doesn't not you can optionally change the fingerprint back to one that worked and repeat the above.
I imagine your tried using RyanZA's root app and that failed. Have you also tried SuperOneClick yet?

dont know about receiving calls and sms. but when i adjust vibration, everything works fine.
I ended up going back to jk6 because i need the vibration function o work. as far as the market fix, i tried the whole download a few of my purchased and regular apps and rebooting a few times but that still did not fix anything. Call wise and reception wise, JL1 was far better for me in my apartment, but the other problems made it too much of a PITA. I guess I'l be rockin jk6 until someone can fix JL1 or until the nexus s comes out. either way, im ok with it.

I doubt the vibration issue would be too difficult to fix, it's just that no one cares enough to do it I think lol. Really, JL1 seems so similar to JK6, I'd say just run the JL1 modem on JK6 (or just run JK6 if you think the modem is a placebo) and call it a day.

by request ill make an update.zip for audio loss for eris users.
im leaving for nashville tonight so i wont be doing any work this weekend.
so i need responses on this thread on what roms DO NOT cause audio loss.
please discuss and come to an agreement on the best rom for me to pull the kernel.
mods please do not move this as i will be updating soon with fix.
What is the fix for? I know on my phone sometimes I can't hear anything when making a call.
I run my own Rom and kernel on my phone so can you just supply the fixed files or tell what they are and I will pull from the zip

what audio loss?, I've tried every rom and havn't had this problem yet.. are you talking about the dreaded audio bug? I am famililar with that as im on a refurb now from that. pre root tho.
If you mean that ringtones go silent with no warning then ZenEXP-Eris Espresso ~Rev7~ does have the issue, EE 3.0 does not so far.
I had that problem big time with Ivan's Official but with JCase's Plain Jane I havent had the problem at all.
I have that issue with the cyanogen roms and ic3rom. But as far as I've noticed the zenEXP and damageR roms do not have this issue. At least for me anyway.
I'd really like to run cyanogenELB, but the loss of audio is a deal breaker.

When i have had the issue before, going into to settings and resetting the rigntone worked. It would be set on default ringtone, not what I had assigned. I put it back to what i wanted and it would ring again. same thing with notifications
Can't Wait
I am using Ivans official and have had this problem a couple of times. When I place a call I hear nothing. The call goes thru on the other end but on mine its like the speaker just refuses to work. I have been wiping dalvik to temp fix the problem. Very annoying. Can't wait for the fix. Thanks in advance.

I know you say DO NOT CAUSE AUDIO LOSS, but it seems like a lot of people are letting you know about their audio loss.
Sorry, but I figure I will add to this since others are speaking about Evil Eris.
For me, I get the silent bug (meaning all audio stops working: email notification, text, volume, music, ringtone selector, alarm tone--<when SB happens and I am trying to select a ringtone or alarm tone I get a FC for HTC sound something another>>--)
I have had this with EE 2.0, 2.0.1, and 3.0. My wife however is still on 2.0.1 and has never had the silent bug issue.
Also, for me, I do not get the shutter sound in camera, meaning when you take a picture it makes that camera sound noise. This happens without the silent bug, just don't get sound.
On AF http://androidforums.com/htc-droid-eris/99973-found-what-causes-silence-lag.html this may or may not help you.
This seems to happen to me about every 24-26 hours.
And most importantly, THANK YOU for looking into this and trying to fix it!!!!!!!
edit: I wanted to clear up, I love Evil Eris! I mean no disrespect to this fantastic ROM or to Frame!!!

I'm have the same problem using Ivans official. Not sure but i think the problem starts when I'm using data and then receive a call. When I answer I hear nothing and when I try to call back I hear nothing. I just reboot to fix.
Just wanted to give an update.
I flashed Sushi last night http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=701544 and am still having the silent bug making me a strong believer that I have a hardware issue.
Somewhere I read someone is thinking it has to do with the proxy sensor. Today I had silence twice, that's 2 times in just a few hours, this has never happened before. Also, each time today happened within an hour of using the camera (and I still have no shutter sound with this ROM).
I failed to mention last night that I am on an old Radio 2.40.00.01.22
I am sorry if I sound like a post whore but I just want to give accurate observations.
Camera
Seems that every time I use the camera or open the camera to browse pics it seems to somehow trigger this problem. The only time I've ever had this problem was after using the camera.

Yes, I am now thinking it has something to do with the camera. I just got the silent bug again, 3rd time today, this was after I used the camera this evening to test and see if the silent bug would happen. This time it took 90 minutes when before it seemed to happen within an hour.
I had identified the bug a while back, but no one took any interest.

I've tried all the leading ROMS based on DK28 and all seem to have on re-occurring issue.
When I place a call about 75% of the time I have have no audio until I toggle the speaker phone. Usually I toggle back to the handset just in time to hear "hello... helllo?"
Am I alone on this? I've flashed back to stock using ODIN and then to a ROM, and every combination in between but nearly every ROM has this issue yet stock 2.1 does not. Thoughts?

I have that bug too but 75% of the time sounds high to me. It happens to me around 30% of the time.
OKi doki, as long as I'm not alone.
If I just wait a sec, and let the call timer start before I put the phone to my head, it usually doesn't need the spkr toggle trick... I think its the prox sensor that is a lil finicky

Two phones, two paths, fixed same way ... my wife and I have the same phone, I did the odin flash via download mode and the dk28 from sprints website. I updated hers via the "update.zip" found on the one click root and update thread. Her phone has this issue and no gps. My phone works fine, calls gps, BT audio and HF. Once I flased her phone, with the same file I did mine with, everything worked fine. Nothing fancy. Hope this helps.

Anyone else? Im not exactly sure if its Phone.apk, DialerTabeActivity.apk, or simply the act of voice calls that is causing it. But it seems as though whenever i make a call, or have an incoming call, my phone almost cant handle it. It lags out like crazy.
This morning, my phone started ringing. There was so much lag that i couldnt answer the phone in time. Also, when i go to hang up a voice call, it often takes the "end call" button almost 10seconds to respond. Lastly, just earlier, i ended a call with my buddy. It LITERALLY took 3 minutes between the time i ended that call, and started a new one. Thats how bad the lag was.
Anyone else experiencing this? Any ideas how to fix it? Maybe its the modem?
This lag is literally intolerable, and a major inconvenience to efficiency.
PS - No, im not running a lagfix. I experimented with and without, and i determined that overall my phone performs better without it.
PPS - This is not me being oCD about my phone or a ROM. Im not being that "never satisfied" guy. Everything else with the ROM is great, its just this one thing.
Im using Eugene's B_Stock_1120_100 kernel, found here: http://eb-productions.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=samsungsgs&action=display&thread=28

I appreciate eugenes work but thats where most of my problems come from. Using nero v3 and experimenting with eugenes kernals(I was bored) I had constant lag, random reboots, panic/safe mode, freezes, couldnt access external sd card etc... Try starting from stock. Are you using titanium backup with system info.

It sucks because this particular kernel of his offers almost everything i want in a 2.2 kernel (BLN, bootup/shutdown animations, lagfixes, OC/UV, and i also love the recovery menu).....although, with this ROM at least, the only lagfix that works is Voodoo, and the OC is only clocked at 1120ghz.
I was wondering if maybe this was causing it. And im mildly depressed to learn that it very well may be. I like TW's kernels, but they just seem to be battery destroyers.
So are you saying not to use this Eugene kernel at all? Should I try a TW one instead? Sorry but stock kernels suck and i want to avoid them if possible.
PS - I dont know what youre asking in terms of TiBu
I just tried it while on Wi-Fi, call came in, no lag answering it, I browsed engadget website, and no out of ordinary lag.
Flash back to stock and go back to the ROM, see if it resolves the issue.
EDIT: I am using Voodoo though
had same problem and i had just come from a fresh odin to stock. couldn't take it and went back to axura latest rom. plus vringo and video tonez don't work with roms with voice start and shutdowns.
Hi,
in the last days with my S3 on every call I had which went for more than 1 minute the other person suddenly couldn't hear me anymore. Sometimes it happened after a minute, sometimes after 3 minutes, but in the last 4 calls it happened every time!
Reception came back after some seconds and from then on it was really bad, the other person had hard problems understanding me.
I searched around and found this thread of GNex owners having the same problem:
http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-nexus/472451-vzw-other-person-cant-hear-me.html
Then I found it in the Issues DB too
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=24019
Do you guys know more? it is really bad, since this is my business phone so nearly every call is an important one and it really bugs me out.
Anyone having same problems?
I hope someone can help me out.
Yes I have the exact problem. It's driving me nuts and I've tried different roms and kernels.

Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I've read that some kernels cause issues like this.
Also, in UK, in Birmingham on Orange, I have been having issues like this, and it usually occurs when the Signal Switches over from Orange to T-Mobile, mid call, and once onto T-Mobile signal, the call breaks up or goes quiet.
Maybe an issue switching from 2G to 3G or back mid call also?

Same problem, no solution
I'm facing the same issue. Tried searching for any possible explanations, but haven't found anything conclusive.
I've tried disabling and enabling noise cancellation and all combinations of the in-call options.
There are 2 or 3 main theories which I've encountered:
1. The microphone goes to sleep when the phone display does. As soon as someone seems to not able to hear me, I move the phone away and the screen wakes up. This seems to sort it out temporarily.
2. Someone had posted on FixYa indicating that they tried putting a small piece of cotton after removing the back panel just behind where the mic is. Haven't tried this!
3. Everyone else seems to think that a factory reset would set it right. I haven't tried this as I need to find a bit of time to do this.
Also, I'm wondering if flashing to CM9's RC1 or 2 will sort out the issue. I'm thinking that it has to be a software glitch. In fact, someone reported that they solved it this way (can't remember where).

Hey,
just so you know. I am on CM9 and I have kind of the same issue. Sometimes audio is unidirectional, both ways actually, unable to recreate it so far. What always seems to work is my bluetooth headset. Switiching between the two of them makes me lose audio entirely. I have tried many things, even rebooting the phone Sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't. I'm guessing it has something to do with BT.
I am NOT facing the issue with losing audio in the middle of the call when the display goes to sleep. The display goes to sleep because of the ligth sensor, btw. - not because the system is idling The display is not needed once the phone realizes it's attached to your ear (lights off).
It's driving me nuts
BUT: CM9 is amazing so far. It's fast, it's open, everything works just fine. Except for the phone as a phone of course

Does CM9 come with an integrated modem switcher? I don't like messing around with "packages" too much. The more you mod everything, the less stuff has got to do with each other and it is more likely to run into trouble, because as a developer you can't really consider every side effect
So if this is actually about the modem (which I doubt, because the connection is just fine, it's just the audio output and input that is kind of broken) - what modem would I use with CM9? Can I just flash a random one over the current one?
Appreciate the advice.
Andreas
I notice that as soon as I take the phone away from my ear and the screen lights up I can again be heard... Wonder if there's a problem with the light off sensor affecting the mics too... It ALWAYS goes away when I remove the phone from my ear and the light sensor allows the backlight to come on again...
Might be a crazy thought but the evidence does seem to support this. I haven't turned off the light sensor in settings yet, if I even can, but was going to try next call...
I updated to BLG8 and I will see tomorrow if it happens again. Today I already had one call which lasted 11 minutes without interruptions. I will report as soon as I got more calls to test.
I had the same prob...

Hi everyone,
I bought my nexus 4 about a year ago, and very recently I decided to give Cyanogenmod a try. I must say this was the first custom ROM I flashed on my device, and I'm quite fond of it. I also flashed a modified version of the latest franco.kernel for CM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53707610&postcount=459)
The thing is that I noticed that my phone doesn't vibrate when it's supposed to. In fact, it doesn't vibrate at all; no matter what I try, it just doesn't. For the record, it had been working flawlessly until a few days ago.
So far I've tried:
- Disabling/Enabling vibration in keyboard, notifications and calls
- Rebooting my device several times
- Updating to 20140723 nightly (I was previously on M8)
- Disabling quiet hours
I've been doing some reading, and some old threads advise to perform a factory reset, but it's kind of a hassle for me to re-sync all the photos and stuff. So, is there anything I should try before I do a factory reset? Should I try and flash a different kernel/go back to stock kernel?
Thanks
It's most likely a hardware issue. I'd backup the phone and then flash the factory image. If it still doesn't vibrate it's a hardware issue. It doesn't cost much to replace the vibrator. Do it yourself or find a local cell repair shop.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
I would rather change the kernel first and see if there is any issues.
I flashed the latest CM nightly, which also changes the kernel to CM stock. This time you can hear the little buzz when you turn on the phone, but that's pretty much all the vibration I get. Phone calls and haptic feedback still don't work. At least, I know it's not a hardware issue.

I still think it's hardware. Roms can change the force it vibrates at. But if it's still low the vibrator is bad.

Maybe I wasn't very clear; the vibration force is OK, but the thing it that it only vibrates on startup, it doesn't buzz in incoming calls or any of that. So that's why I think the vibrator isn't broken
