Voice recorder not working - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I think I must have disabled something the stock voice recorder is dependent on. I still see an icon but its that default little android icon. I press it and it just throws an error. Any ideas? Anyone have the voice recorder apk? I can't seem to figure out if i disabled something or accidentally deleted it...

Exactly Same situation here. But I ve not frozen anything.
Anybody could help?
Edit: solved reflashing the rooted image. Probably LG backup fault.

Same issue...

Can you upload the priv-app folder containing the voice recorder? I want to see if it will fix it without having to flash sys img again

I'm having the same issue on my Canadian variant H812 and I factory reset the phone and it came back. Then after a few hours the icon became the little Android icon and no longer works.
What's going on?

I bet that's the problem. I had factory reset. Haven't changed dpi this time. Still have voice recorder.

Yeah after I changed the DPI this issue appeared. Makes sense.

LED issue

Is anyone else having an issue with this? I already have the Led notifications disabled yet when I get a missed call, text or email the led still lights up. I have unticked the options in settings>led indicator. I am using the stock apps for messaging, email and phone calls. No 3rd party apps.
I thought the issue was with gmail as I read it somewhere on the intertnet. But that doesnt seem to be it. If it was why does it still blink with a misssed call or text.
Anyone else with this issue? I really dont want to do anothsr master reset. I have had to go through four master reset for other issues. I finaly got the phone set up the way I want and dont want to do it all over again.
Any help is appreciated.

Have you turned off smart response? I don't have this problem because I have the service light running but I'm wondering if that might do it. Also they make this stuff, "duct tape," you might try that

Wow. I was hoping a master reset would fix it. Now im not too sure if I even want to try that. I finally have the phone set up the way I want. I would hate to do a reset for nothing.

Having the same exact issue here. Was going to start a thread about it myself.
I have the LED for notifications OFF in the system settings but they still continue to appear. I have tried multiple things to no avail.
I too am just on stock GS3, no rooting.
Would love to find a fix if anyone has found one...
I read here on these forums that your issue was a KNOWN issue and that it'll be worked out
with the next update........ if there's any truth to that, we'll see.

So you're getting flashing blue led for these notifications?
Have you checked yes for notifications in the default apps themselves?

Yes thats correct. If I disable the notification option in the default apps then I wouldnt get a sound or status bar notification when a text or email comes in. All options for the LED lights are disabled in the settings.
Im hoping that this is a bug that will be fixed in a future update. I really dont want to master reset again.
If I were to reset, will my apps be downloaded automatically? All the resets I have done I had to manually look for them and download them again.
Thanks everyone for the feedback. Hope we can find a solution for this.

If you reset, you have to go to Play, choose My Apps from phone menu and reinstall. Only updates are (if you so choose) automatic.
As I remember it, with my I747 I had to set notifications to be on in apps and also set LED indicator to display when there was activity. Otherwise, the phone could set there all day and I'd never know there were messages or missed calls.

[Q] Flashlight text/call notification?

I know this is retarded but I have got my phone set to flash the camera flash when i receive a text or call and now i can't get rid of it
I have so many apps with so much functionality i cant remember which one had the setting in, i'm certain it's not a native OS function
is there any recommendations to reset this to default without uninstalling half my apps
yes i have googled/xda'd it and cant find an answer + yes i have searched high and low through all the apps
I would really appreciate if anyone knows of a quick solution!
Its in settings, accesibilty, flash notification.. hope that helps

(Request) Enable Call Recording (SecPhone.apk)

It has been done for the Galaxy III and the International version of the S4 (I9500 and I9505) Here is the link with the code --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2268146
After several pm with grgsiocl, He has added in the necessary code to enable it on the T-Mobile SGS4 but all it does is freeze the phone when you enable the record function.
Here is the link to the modified SecPhone.apk. --> http://www.mediafire.com/?w5l8ov5uzw8bb5d
Hopefully someone could get it to work.

It will record both sides of the conversation if you use the speaker phone.
Most all other call recorders even those at the playstore which are paid apps work,
but they work same way using the speaker phone when you want to record a call.....

Ok, so call recording takes up the same button as call swap. you will lose that feature if I do this app correctly, as far as I can tell.

Is there a way you can put it into the menu button. While on a call hit menu button and enable it. I was on Verizon note 2 running beanstown rom and thats how he did it so that we didnt lose that feature.

Yeah that's the other thing I noticed. I'll have to toy with it more. Are people ok with giving up their call swap button?

[Q] Terrible lag when turning off the screen?

Has anyone else noticed that there a noticeable lag when turning off the screen? The slight fade out animation seems to stutter and there is about a 1-2 second delay from when i press the power button to it actually doing something. This is probably one of the weirdest places for a phone to lag.
Anyone else have this problem?
I'm running on stock rooted BTW.
EDIT (more info): This doesn't happen right after a factory reset. I takes a bit of time for it to happen which makes it seem like some app messing it up, but it happens even if there isn't anything installed besides the default stuff.

[Q] LightFlow Not Working

Hello all,
I recently made the switch from VZW Note 3 to this amazing G3 & great T-Mobile service. I had been on 3 Sammy phones in a row. So I don't know many other brand-specific tricks.
Loved having control over LED with LightFlow app. But this phone isn't playing well.
Do I need to turn something on? Or off?
I'm Rooted (obv). Which if anything should help.
You can accomplish roughly the and thing with g3 tweakbox and a whole lot more.

Does anything need to be turned off in the phone's LED section? Maybe it's a Samsung thing, but I needed to turn that stuff off for app like LightFlow to work

NO dice... Using Hangouts, but with KK, whatever is set as the "default" should get the LED right??
So simple, yet so annoying. Hahaha
Hmm... Bummer. :/ sorry man. I saw the options in there. Never really looked to much into it. Not a function I use really.

Had LED access forever, that's all. I obv know my tone for texts. Just nice to glance down to know... Least I have my Android Wear for that!
Thanks again
Try Light Manager. I've been using that app without any problems.

^ Agreed. I use that app as well with no problems with the LED controls or use and it actually has a lot more variables and customization than Tweaks Box does.
I just don't like how the G3 doesn't let you customize any of the notification sounds as much as the Note 3 did....
