I got an i9000 recently but found the alarm not working.
I set an alarm yesterday but did not work this morning; then I tried to set another alarm for one minute later, it worked; but then I tried to set another one for 15 minutes later, this one did not work.
I searched the internet and found that this might be due to setting the time to automatic network value. is this the case?
Thanks a lot.
it is fixed in jvr =)
my version is JVQ(XEU), but kies showing this is the lastest software.
check here how to upgrade to jvr -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1139050
If it's a new phone just try taking it back to samsung if you can't or not confident on flashing jvr
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
its a bug of pre jvr firmwares
taking it to samsung will not solve the issue
thanks a lot, but since I do not really want to flash the phone, I guess I would just download an alarm software from market for now. Will this JVR firmware be available through kies later?
for the time being only for switzerland
thanks a lot for your prompt reply. I also found another problem which is that I can read chinese sms but when I send chinese sms (by google pinyin input) the receiver could not read(all question marks). Is that also a firmware problem (regarding text support)?
do not know mate
I switched from the Nokia N900 to the Note 2 weeks ago.
Were I never had any problems with the call quality with the N900, with the Note it's impossible to make any normal phone calls.
I get a connection, i can hear the other person very well, but everybody is telling me my voice sounds like I am in a tin box.
Its very bad to here what I am saying.
I tried a lot off things.
-First a hard reset (sim out, and than *2767*3855#)
I didn't put any backup back, the note in factory state and I have the same problems.
-I switched it to GPRS mode only.
Same problem.
If I Look in "Settings/About Phone/Battery usage" and I click on top off the screen, I can see my Phone Signal is not green as it should be.
Sometimes it is, but it turns to yellow very fast and after that it turned in to grey.
Strangest thing is, that in "Settings/About Phone/Status/Signal Strength very often the strength is -80, 90, or above 100. (so it is normal to have a bad connection.)
But even when it is -around - 50 dBm I have a bad call quality.
An other Sim (other network provider) has the same problem.
Should I return it or is there an other way to solve this?
Don't you have any problems with call quality?
Hi, I just wanna tell you that the quality call is PERFECT with my Note. The noise cancellation works perfectly well. My friend couldn't even notice the noise traffic surrounding me. It's also loud enough. No complaints for me.
I've made the latest upgrade via KIES (KJ9) I guess. I didn't make any call before the upgrade, so I can't tell whether it's the upgrade that's solved the problem. Good luck with your phone, hope you find a solution

I face same problem with my Samsung Galaxy S, but it was issue to all with sound driver. I got Voodoo control plus, then it was almost normal.
But in My Note, there is no issue at all. May be it cud be your mic related problem. And i heard voodoo control wont work with Note, as it have yamaha codec, non supported with voodoo
Same problem for me. When I disable Noise Cancellation, my voice gets really live and nice. Everybody hears me fine, but with NC on... well I have to shout.
I went from an N900 to the Note as well but no problems with call quality, it sounds fine to me and no-one I've been speaking has said anything about it sounding poor to them
Seems like i have to talk louder with nc on. Even though im in a quiet room. I have to block the top hole then its ok. Must be a software bug

We are some people affected. Just waiting for someone who can implement NR off in the phone.apk
Look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1344659
EDIT: Afther KK9 upgrade, the call quality has improved quite a lot !!!!
Mine works fine.

Well I haven't updated yet cos of vodafone taking it's time to completely activate my plan but I have no problems either. In fact my girlfriend says I'm much clearer on this phone than my old one.. (although that was a low-end non-smartphone from Nokia, so maybe the comparison isn't so telling..)
Thanks for the reply's.
An upgrade to the new firmware isn't possible for me.
I'm from Holland, and my phone has the PDA:KJ4 / Phone KJ4 / CSC:KJ4 (KOR) firmware.
I don't know what (KOR) stands for, but I got the message onscreen that says : GT-N7000 does not support firmware upgrade.
I didn't know about switching off NC would help, but I am gonna give it a try!
Thanks for now.
i got the note ....eu rom and UAE rom..the qualities are good now one told me about voice problems....about the kies not upgrading...did u install another rom? if yes...try the CSC change code ,,,change it to xeu (eu) if u cnt do that...flash XEU rom via odin then do the CSC change code to XEU and it will be supported....i used to hav eu rom...but i need arabic support so i changed to UAE rom...then kies told me i cnt upgrade...so i had to change the CSC code to XSG ....then i got kies support again
Strange...I've tried 3 different firmwares so far, no problems at all. The calls are a little bit on a quiet side but I guess the noise cancellation does it's magic and I can't say that I had to ask anybody to repeat anything nor have I been asked to do the same so far. Sounds rather like a faulty phone...bad mic or/and speaker...
Where is this noise cancellation found? But to be honest i have found call quality to be fine on mine

I changed the CSC Code (kies wont allow you to upgrade if you have KOR code, as this is the generic one and it is not linked to any region)
Just type type in *#272*IMEI# in your dialer (IMEI=your IMEI number)and it will come up a menu to choose the CSC.
I choose DBT (Germany) and after that was able to update via Kies.
NOTICE THAT CHANGING THE CSC CODE WILL RESET YOUR TERMINAL AND YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR DATA (factory reset).

Will changing the csc void the warranty? If it doesn't then I will do it immediately! Thanx for your help!!
If I can change this in DBT, I always can go back i suppose.
So I tried, but the code you gave doesn't work.
I did a little research and discovered there's got to be a * in the code after *#272.
So the code should be *#272*IMEI#
Thanks for the tip, gonna try if it gets better
My call quality is horrible. Nobody can hear me and I have to repeat myself five times

I tried it, changed to DBT and after that XEU successfully.
Connected my Note to Kies but didn't got any update....
So I went back to KOR whiteout any problem.
What am I doing wrong?
Or, is it Kies on my macbook that ins't doing its job? Should I try on Windows?

Thats correct, I already edit my entry to fix it: The code is *#272*IMEI#
It is supposed that you don't loose guarantee as this was my dealer who advise me to change it because mine had also this problem with kies

Before changing the rom, I solved it by covering the upper mic with a adhesive tape. (faster way to disable noise reduction problem)

Yes, you'd better try on windows.
As far as I know there is a KK9 update for DBT, but I think there is nothing for XEU.
And thats correct.
I installed Kies on my wifes Windows laptop.
Tried XEU (no update), and tried DBT.
I am downloading the update now.
I'll let you know how things go!
Alright, I am currently on an sgh-i337 Galaxy S4. I'm updated to MK2 and have been trying to fix the problem I've been having for a week or two now and figured I could get some help from some real geniuses.
My problem is that when making a call or receiving a call, there is no audio transacted between my caller and I (they can't hear me and I can't hear them). After digging around on the Internet a little, I found several tips: factory restore, update from mf3 to mk2, wipe the cache and data on the phone application, use applications such as soundabout, clean out the mic with a needle, trying different ROMS. I have tried ALL these options and have yet to figure out a solution.
Some info- I know my microphone is working fine because I will record myself and play it back with crystal quality, Text to speech works flawlessly, and S-Voice works as well. My speakers work fine too. I can play music and the internal (ear) speaker works as well. I have data on the phone and can send and receive text messages perfectly. HERE IS THE KICKER: When connected to my bluetooth headset, the call works perfectly! This leads me to believe it is a software issue but I am puzzled as to why a factory reset (even a fresh mk2 Odin flash) won't work. I have tried downloading different dialer applications and dialing a call from android terminal emulator. Still, no dice.
Thanks for any and all help!
hi there,
sounds like a modem issue.. although the fact that it works with bluetooth makes me think otherwise. did you donan official update or is it a custom Rom? at one point I update to 442 (NC1) but still had the 422 basedband (MG1). I was getting signal drops all the time so I went back the 422, flashed the modem only using odin, then updated to 442 again and no more signal drops!
good luck!

So you think I should download the new kit kat modems and give them a flash? This is what I thought as well. I feel like there is just an internal software switch that is causing mute and hold to be constantly activated unless a bluetooth device is connected. I'll certainly do your suggestion and get back with you. Thank you

I apologize it took me so long to get back with you, I had to flash full NB1, and zip the modems up, then downgrade, then flash. I couldn't find any individual tar files for NB1 4.4.2.
Thanks for the suggestion French but I'm afraid that's another idea we can add the list of busts. I first flashed the NB1 modems and then tried making a call. Everything was going normal but the call audio from either person has yet to budge. After that frustration I decided to wipe everything, update to NB1, reset the flash counter, and take it to best buy and the AT&T store for some more ideas. The guy at Best Buy was a total dweeb and said they didn't offer a service for flashing phone devices. How lame. I went to the AT&T store and the guy of course, didn't try to help me resolve the problem but just get a new phone.
So, I'm scraping bottom for ideas fellas. I'm open to any and all suggestions. Thank you all
hi there,
glad to hear you resolved your problem. sounds like it might have been a hw issue after all.

I didn't resolve the problem and I'm still open to any and all suggestions. Getting a new phone is rarely the answer and in a case like this where the hardware works perfect on a Skype call, etc.. I really appreciate your help and if you got any more ideas, throw them at me!
So i just bought me and my wife theses phones blu studio c 5+5, they seem to be alright phones in my opinion. Mine does everything i want, but my wife's does not and mine has the same issue. there is no default voice dialer for a head set to initialize. ive tried every trick i can think of with no success. 1 click does nothing but will answer and hang up calls and 2 clicks will redial( of the head set). ive tried different apps and Bluetooth remapping tools and sucking to see if i could get the google voice search to active on 2 clicks since thats seem to be the only thing that will initialize something but nothings worked. it will not let you use a different dialer app. Once you hit send it still reverts back to the default and it takes over the call. No way to replace the default one and if uninstalled completely it does not calling what so ever out going or incoming. Had to do a factory reset to get the default dialer back so it was a usable phone again. I thought about downgrading it to kitkat from lollypop or installing a custom rom but see no tutorials on that just for the stock roms. unless my lingo is wrong i don't want the stock rom thats what its got on it right. Thought maybe with a downgrade or different rom wouldn't have this bluetooth issue or would have more likely of a chance of having a better dialer or being able to change it at least. I always been able to do the things and never had an issue like this with any other phones. Any thoughts or help would be much appreciated, Thank you
Hi,
So heres the thing. My s7e had a broken speaker (the one on the top for talking). So i sent it in for repair and they repair the speaker and also the entire glass-back.
Now when i got it back i first checked if it still has the same imei code since they changed the glasa-back where it should be written but now its not there anymore. So i checkedin setting and it still the same imei. But then things started getting wierd.
When i turn on my data it says LTE or LTE+ insted of 4G. I know its the same thing. But why has it changed???
Next thing. Those news, called Breifing, which are located on the home screen if you swipe to the left and if you have turned on.... Well its gone. There is no Breifing app anymore. Instead there is some app called Upday (which is extremely laggy, btw) and when i tried to find it on the galaxy store, google store and on google in general, I found nothing. Like it doesnt exist. Whats up with that? I want the original app Briefing. And all i can do with this one is disable it. Oh and i tried factory reset but its still there
Next one is even weirder. I got some Polish app installed on the phone called Player. I also cant delete it, but can only disable it. Factory reset doesnt do the job. Its just there. Whats even wierder is, i somehow after a long time, found this app on google store and it says its not even supported in my country, meaning that if i hadnt already have it on my phone i couldnt even install it. I am not from Poland btw.
Now the next wierd thing is Google now. When i hold the home button and it opens Google now, i noticed its actually called "Launcher3" in the Recent app drawer. What is up with that. I am starting to think that I dont even have my original OS on my phone anymore even though in setting under software it says i have Android 6.0.1.
Can someone please explain to me what is going on? And how i can get back my breifing app and delete upday, how can i delete that polish app, how can i change launcher3 back to google now? About lte being 4g i dont really care its just wierd because before it was 4g but whatever. About lte being 4g if anyone knows how to change tell me, please, but its not the main problem here.
I also added some screenshots for easier understanding.
I Hope you guys can help me and i thank you in advance.
Oh and also the Launcher3 thingy.
And that box of text where in the bottom right corner its says "ONEMOGOČI" it means "to disable". Like I said i can only disable that junk Polish app but cant get rid of it.
And also i hope i wrote under the correct forum if not please direct me in the right direction.
To me it seems that they have installed a different software on your phone, but don't worry it is the original one. Even for me Google is called launcher3.
So, if you want to have your original software back, just download the stock firmware for your region, flash it with Odin and then everything should be back to normal.
Do you still have your data after the repair or was everything wiped? Sounds like they installed some Polish software or something. You could try backing up your data (if not lost with repair) and then installing your country/carrier software via Odin. (Search on Sammobile)
I think that they usually wipe your phone when they repair but it doesn't matter because before I sent it in for repair I did a backup and then wipe it myself. After it came back I restored my backup onto my phone, but still this new apps came.
Well how do i do that? How do i even find my country's firmware and what is Odin and how do I install it on my phone?
And can doing this brick my phone and void warranty?
Oh and one more thing since you guy probably know. I cannot for the love of god turn off "Ok google" feature.
In settings I checked everything for OFF but still on my widget it says to yay Ok Google and it still activates if I say. And I swear I have all settings for this thing turned off.
Or they have flashed a different csc thats what happened to me when i flashed a german csc it was lte so i just flashed a btu csc as im from uk and all back to english apps and 4g symbol

Well then it is probably the firmware.
But anyways how do I change it all back. And have my precious briefing back and have that polish junk app gone.
I found some firmware on Sammobile. For my model (in setting it says my model number is SM-G935F). And next to that firmware was written also my country and my carrier MOBITEL.
But how will i be really sure that is the right one for my phone. There are also some other numbers like csc and pda and something like that. And i really dont want to mess something up. Im not really a tech pro.
And i am still worried this will void my warranty. I cant afford something being wrong with my phone and having to pay for repair or buying a new one.

Flashing original samsung software will not void your warranty because it is signed by samsung.
If the firmware on sam's site is for your area, you can flash it with confidence, only when trying to flash another region you should worry.
Okay. Thanks. So is there any good guide on how to do it?
I read a bit on the web and theres to much stuff for me to understand. Some CSC and PDA codes and some CSC_HOME that i heard of somewhere and AP, BL, CP and repartition. Etc. Etc.
I dont understand any of that stuff. Dont want to mess something up.

OFFICIAL STOCK Firmware-Update (Odin)
Ok thanks. Will look into that. If i wont figure it out i just go to the repair shop and ask them to turn back to normal.
Still, anyone knows whats wrong with Ok Google. I deleted the app once again and checked if all Ok google detection setting were set to off and they were but somehow that sucker still listens to me. And i cant turn it off
It might just get and update, briefing is now upday on my phone
I also got it from repair. For speaker. And also got poland firmware and i also have problems with google ok feature. Exactly the same. Still havent found solutions though
