Earphone not working in Every ROM ( Except Stock ROM )

Hi galaxy y user,
I have tried every rom in this forum and found that the earphone doesnt work in the developed rom by every developer.
the earphone only works in the stock rom. i loved the creed's rom and was using since one week but due to earphone problem i shifted back to stock rom.
Please find a solution for this also.
for more see - romfory.blogspot.com

same here :/ im really confused...The other members on XDA say that their earphones work....

Ear phones working
Iam using creeds ROM and earphones work perfectly fine

which baseband....??

Same here at creeds, hint for devs: ukw says not earphone connected

the earphone thingy will depend on what firmwares u use. many have asked me about them and i just told them to update their Fwares. and it fixed their problem try doing it so

Hello so just update AFTER flashing the custom Rom (e.g. Creeds with fixes) with an 2.3.6 European stock Rom and that's it?? Would be damn nice (I didn't find an german/European Rom till now but when I find one I'll link it here if it solves the problem)
Will the Rom not be removed through updating with an stock Rom?

so for indians which firmware should we use....?????????

Mine is not working too. tried both Infected 2.5.2 and Creed 2.1 but none worked
I cant get back to stock fw too coz my pc cant recognize the phone when its on recovery mode.. waah
help pls.

mine is working, maybe tried to update firmware, then do again the installation of Creed V2 or infected

Take a look at my thread i managed to solve the issue

Samsung Galaxy 551 very dark screen bug

Hi,
I've purchased a a Samsung Galaxy 551 (I5510) (Middle east region) about a year ago and i was running android 2.2 fine for a while. When the Gingerbread 2.3 update came out i tried installing a European ROM because the ME ROMs weren't updated, it worked fine but had a weird glitch that if the screen was off (phone still working) for a while it would be very dark when turned on afterwards, it looked like this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kwll8ZfgaD0
P.S. I didn't make the video, just linking it because its the same issue
it would randomly work again after a couple of lock-screen off-unlock cycles, then happen again randomly when it's off
I tried a number of GB ROMs (mostly 2.3.4) but to no avail, then finally the latest EU ROMs (I5510XWKPJ) fixed the problem, nowhere to be seen anymore.
After that i tried installing Cyanogen mod for the phone and the problem came back with different degrees:
1. Cyanogen 7 - normal boot, screen gets dark after being off for a while.
2. Cyanogen 9,10 - show Samsung logo at start, screen gets dark as soon as the cyanogen logo appears and continues to be
Any help on what would be causing that especially on the newer CM builds? and why it doesn't happen at all in (I5510XWKPJ)
Thanks in advance,

use stock gb rom XEO-KPG from here...u find no bug in it....install as one pakage through odin...
http://galaxy551.wordpress.com/2011/12/20/new-stock-rom-xeo-kpg/

I will give it a try, though i have to clarify and say that on the current stock rom that i'm using (I5510XWKPJ) the problem doesn't happen. It only happens after i flash Cyanogenmod (any version) and persists till i reflash the Stock rom then it disappears again.
EDIT: Forgot to add that this isn't a CM specific bug as it happened also when i tried other roms too (Arkas, Miui,...)

You cannot say that this is a bug bcaz no other mamber of galaxy 551 and even me also not have this kind of problem....
So I think its problem of ur phone...

No change after installing (XEO-KPG) stock rom, the rom itself works fine with no problems, same as the (XWKPJ) I've been using. but as soon as i install CM the bug rears it's ugly head.

The reason i think it's a bug because it happens across lots of custom roms (which rules a rom being the cause) and it never happens when using the 2.3.6 stock roms. And on the custom roms it only happens after the screen has been off for a while, if i set the screen to never turn off for instance it never happens, but that butchers battery life.
IMO it might be a display driver issue, but since i have no experience with it i came here to get some help

Bump, any help would be appreciated.

well try phoenix rom if want the 4.1.2 as for me the default sometime created problem connecting to wifi which still does and temporary solution solves it but its irritating when phone takes time or does not connect,which I found that the phoenix rom used to connect in a sec as it should be and never had problems connecting

Yeah,being this your first flashing experience,i suposed,why did you chose the 4.3 builds?I think wifi thing is 4.3 issue,if you want fast buttery smoth everlasting juice deliciusness flash thunder lite rom...

Thanks I will try it, I am out of solutions for fixing this weird issue with the CM 10.2 custom based ROMs. Just in case that 4.1.2 creates issues as well, can you recommend me your best 4.1.1 which works like a charm for me now?

No this is far from my first flashing experience even with Note 2. It's my first flashing experience as I said after receiving my phone from SDS syndrome (mobo was swapped). Why shouldn't I flash to the newest build if I can?
It had 4.1.1 and worked great as it works now with a custom 4.1.1 rom. The problem is with other custom ROMs and yes everything works amazing except WiFi connection with the CM 10.2 based that I tested (Nightly,Probam,PAC).
It should be a software issue with some devices in this code.

well stay away from 4.1.1 rom as its prone to sds so avoid it and yes thunderlite is even an amazing rom fast and stable now its upto you what u choose plus thunderlite has the battery advantage too if you go for phoenix choose 240dpi mode in aroma and enjoy the beauti of the beast ,the choice is yours, earlier i have tried N7100 Resurrection Remix® but in that case too wifi worked fine for me ,I would suggest a complete wipe install ,even wiping your system but do a backup of your current before proceeding in case.

Also tried 4.2.2 RootBox before and it still gives me the problem with WiFi. There's definitely something fishy going on with anything from 4.1.2 and above for me from what I've tested with 6 different ROMs..About the SDS syndrome I checked with eMMC program and it says it's a sane chip this time, before it warned me it was an insane one and after some time my phone had died on me.
Anyway I've had enough, just finished installing Phoenix V13 and tweaking the basics. Works amazing thus far and it looks like a great rom. WiFi works great and I think I'll stay with this one for the time being.
10 days without this beast were A LOT, I'm bored looking even further I hope this one will serve me well..

[Q] Any other solution other than reverting back to 4.1.2 for lag issue ?

I am fed up with the lag issue in this GRAND duos. tried all these methods
(1) reverting back to amf7
(2) flashing bna4
(3) flashing ubmk3
(4) disbaled stock gallery app
(5) disabled as many as possible official apps....
All the solutions proved to be just temporary. After 24 hours to 4 days it starts lagging again. Now I am sick of flashing firmwares.
My phone is under warranty up to 19 April. If I go to service center and ask for replacement of motherboard/phone, will they replace just on the complain "my this phone hangs a lot. I have googled and found that many users have flashed other firmwares yet phones lag. These users say that this problem has no solution but replacement of motherboard?" (I cannot tell them that I have flashed other firmwares myself).
If any user with same problem has flashed custom ROM, please share your experience.

Bro, though I've never flashed a custom rom on my grand , but my Grand is rooted and I've flashed a lot of mods on it , but my Grand never lags . It is very fast and buttery smooth . I want to ask you that wether you directly started flashing custom roms on your galaxy grand or in the beginning you just rooted and flashed some mods like me ?

@MohdGhufran
From what date is your last stock ROM?
I'm having the same problem. But I've used the CM11 on another occasion and did not face any problem. Then I went back to Stock and updated the same last week.
The phone was very bad (lag). So I returned to the CM11, but the lag continues.
I'll try an earlier stock and after the CM11.
I'll post the result here.
(Sorry for my English by Google)

@Mohdgufran - I agree... I m running umbmk1 ... after 3 to 4 days with out restart the phone starts to lag...
The only solution temporarily is to clear the ram in task manager...
Stay wid 4.2.2 and use a ram cleaner (it sucks a bit battery but its the only possible non technical solution)

Have you tried a factory reset, followed by clean flashing a smooth ROM?? In my experience, THAT always solves any problem...

Its the stock rom that is cursed..:/

I think u need a reverse gear.. First back to 4.1 version then flash with 4.2 November month version then use cm 11 custom rom.. Its fast.. Gud battery back up.. No lag.. And all with dual sim.. I hope this will work for u..

Try greenify and the cleaner both are small apps (around 1 mb) and it will speed up your phone .....
Hit thanks if you find this usefull

Didn't root.

I have not flashed any custom ROM on this phone. Neither have I rooted it. This lag issue started since my bro got an OTA update. So, as per solutions/guidance available on xda, I just flashed official firmwares (which proved to be just temporary solutions)

it is not like that stock ROMs are not good. It is just a problem with Galaxy Grand Duos. I had rooted my Galaxy R and Galaxy S Advance and had flashed Custom ROMs. All the custom ROMs had some limitations / missing features (like USB PC connection, wifi tethering, USB tethering, etc). This is why I do not want to flash any custom ROM on Galaxy Grand.

Yes I had tried this. Went back to 4.1 and the upgraded to 4.2. This too proved to be a temporary solution.
I don't want to flash custom ROM but now it seems like I will have to flash the same.

I solved my problem by not installing facebook and twitter as well as also installed battery saver pro which kills apps running in background for every five minutes..
