Is loudspeaker bad for everyone else too?

If I speak to someone on loudspeaker they always complain they can hear themselves talking,I never had this problem with any other phone, so why this? :s

Hi,
with my phone i have no problem regarding this; i'm on codename android 1.1.4 with minimalistic kernel 1.7.1 and i have no problem at all using loudspeakers (no echo to the caller). This happen also in stock rom.
So, let's try another rom (maybe stock first) and then compare the result. So basically you have two choices: phone related problem (meaning hardware) or software problem (menaing rom - and in this case is kernel related).....

I tested this with a friend several times and it the device performed well.
In fact I could not even tell when he had switched from speakerphone to handset.

Should I flash...help

Here's the deal. I have one of the gnex's that had the bad 4g radio and couldn't stay connected to the network logger than 10 minutes. The jb update finally came and fixed. Scared to flash custom Rom in fear old problem might return. Has anyone had one the previously faulty phone and has since flashed a custom Rom with success?

You have nothing to lose but some time if you flash something and don't like it. If the update fixed your problem, almost all custom roms will be using an android version at least equal to what you are running now (most probably newer). You can make a nandroid to restore if you find you have problems with whatever rom you flash. If you don't want to do that, you can always use the factory images posted by google and restore your phone back to the version you are using now. Updated radios probably helped more than anything in a kernel or /system (which is all most custom roms contain - I don't think I've ever seen any that contain radios for the galaxy nexus).

Now running liquid smooth. 4g still strong thanks for the info.

Stick on 4.3 until Samsung gets all the kinks fixed out or a dev does.

I mentioned them on your thread. I dont know why I had so many issues with the Tmo Rom but didnt have any issues (except the data signal) when using the other 4.3 Rom (international) you made. But im glad I didnt update officially!

Same here, love this rom. Better battery life, too. One issue I have is occasional reboots. But someone mentioned I have to format my ex SD card.

For right now with the bootloader Knox issues, I'm sticking with 4.12 and using the the 4.3 MK7 radio. I've gone through them all and this
improved my signal and battery time significantly. More over, with this modem improvement, I've fallen in love again with my finely tuned
Jedi-x20 all over again. ptmr3, still my idol!!!

I also flashed the MK7 modem. Haven't really noticed a vast improvement..and it also didn't deliver some of my calls and went straight to vm. But hoping it makes a difference as its used more throughout the day. .

To all people having problems,
I personally had to flash the deodexed rom about 3 times before the problems got fixed. First time camera wasn't working but I read somewhere that when first on stock taker pictures and then update the kernel. Second it was super sluggish...barely moving. Third time everything worked fine and have yet to come across and problems.
Just remember to keep erasing cache and dalvik after every flash/step.

Man people, I'm sorry for all of you. I received it while using tweaked but could not flash it so I went back to stock image using Mobile odin and triangle away. After going complete stock I received the update again then went ahead and installed it using the stock recovery. I gave up root because I'm impatient and couldn't wait 24 hours until the rooted version came along and the only thing I miss is viper audio and cerebus. So I went the stock route and after it booted up, I signed in to my Google account and soon as the home screen came up I did a factory rest and haven't had 1 hiccup. The phone is fast as hell, the battery is about the same, my 4glte even seems faster than before when browsing using the stock browser, not chrome. The keyboard is great now as well as camera, and nothing bets the apps to sd. So in conclusion do a factory rest and forget about root IF you want all to run flawless. I'm sure there will be a way to regain root again. Happy flashing.......stock style.

Phantom touches. Never had them before

My 16GB flo was working fine from the beginning. Always kept it up to date with android releases. Never had an issue. Just today while swyping noticed some weird behavior.So, I tested with a multi touch tester. There were some fake touches recorded. It didn't even allow me to reboot. Later with some effort I managed though. After reboot, it works fine. I'm scared cause I bought that in US and I doubt the so called international warranty will be honored in India.Has this occurred to anyone else? What shall I do if it happens again? Is there some fix for this?

I'm running stock+xposed.
Testing with multi touch app seemed to have made it worse for me, even prevented me shutting it down. Hope it doesn't come back.

If an RMA is not an option, try Abel's solution. It boils down to bad hardware and no quality control. I had to RMA my first one for the exact same reason. Second one is fine.
If you do some googling, you will see that thousands of people have had this problem. Any definitive word from Google or Asus? You wish. They will never admit they made a mistake.

Yes I read about them but this is weird cause a reboot solved the problem.

Had this issue start yesterday. Running Sinless 3.2.2 on stock kernel. I've noticed it only start since installing Xposed but that could be coincidence. Reboot fixed it but woke up to it again today...

The one I had (before I sent it back to Google), would only do it after it had been started for a while. Reboot would make it go away for a while, but it always came back.
Not related to Xposed.

KK 4.4.2 Issues

Kinda made this to be a catch-all KK issue thread.
I've been on this forum for many years and would you believe my post count <10. Anyways....
I have flashed the Liquidsmooth LS-KK-v3.0-2014-03-18 with the dr87 kernel. Great ROM. Quick. Speedy. Best battery life I've ever had on a smartphone.
Having issues with random reboots also with A2DP. I know A2DP hasn't been right for a long time. Also having issues with the updater nagging about a new update even though I'm on the latest release. The download usually fails a MD5 check anyways.
Thoughts?

yea im on AOKP 4.4.2 for about 3 weeks now. since its my favorite rom. Anyways i have experienced random reboots and poor data connections.

This has been discussed for months. All AOSP 4.4 ROMs suffer from random reboots/freezes, poor sound quality, etc. It's the kernel, once devs incorporate the new LG KK kernel source, these issues should be fixed. Before that though, Sprint has to release the damn update.
Patience, grasshoppers. It will all be well soon enough. :good:

Source DROP!
It's here, it's here... well the source at least!

I've been running this rom [ROM] [VECTUS] GN5 Project AOSP [V0.0] 4.4.2 (03-22-2014) since release and it doesn't have any of the problems they you've mentioned. The only thing that has occurred is the screen randomly turning on. no freezing, reboots, or lockups.

I am definitely looking forward to 100% working aosp roms they are so smooth. Cant wait for kk release ?

CM/AOKP/AOSPA kernel source will usually vary from "stock" source that LG provides for various reasons. Changes are more fluid on those AOSP projects as they're keeping up usually with sources like CAF.
I tried with Furnace kernel and with the exception of losing data after trying to tether it was great. So your mileage may vary.

Not being a troll or anything but it says you just joined 5 months ago October 2013, not many years ago.

I've found my bluetooth button that used to activate voice mate now does nothing. Seems to be an issue with Nexus phones as well read? I'm on stock 4.4.2.
I've also noticed wifi seems flaky and I have to toggle it to get internet working after it seems to hang.

My data connection on 3g is slower than dial up no matter where I am, battery life is not that amazing either. Also the sound is very low, like I am still running an aosp rom. Music player in lockscreen is not full screen like it was on kk roms before. Not super impressed honestly.

I think you can change the max volume and music player in lock screen using xposed modules.

Sent from my LG-LS980 using xda app-developers app

Ok here's what happened. I bricked my phone a month ago. I took it to Sprint in Northern Florida for repair. The guy tot my phone. I was worried at first as he kept saying kdz file. He seemed like he really didn't know what to do. He got it working again but I had frequent data drops and battery sucked. Kit Kat didn't fix any of these problems after resets. I finally two nights ago used the tot on my own and now battery is phenomenal. I got 6 hours sot yesterday. Only problem I'm having now is that I don't use Bluetooth and its off. It's my number one battery hog. Any suggestions? I thought the info about the tot might be helpful for those with battery issues where factory reset hasn't helped.
