[Q] IncS - How To disable the Noise Cancellation - HTC Incredible S

I don't know if anyone knews this:
the Incredible S is unable to be used as a Hands Free Set with the Ear Piece Cabel plugged in.
I use my phone to make calls while driving. The Phone is connected via an adapter to the car audio kit and I wanna use the interal microphone.
Now, the internal HTC Noise cancellation blocks my voice... bad idea.
HTC don't want to help me.
On Nexus One, we have had the same problem, but we found out, that we can change one value in the build.prop to disable the noise cancellation.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=700958
Now I've searched the build.prop about this value, but I can't find it. Can anybody help me?
EDIT:
OK,
I've figured it out! ROOT IS REQUIRED!!!
You can fix this with root explorer or any application like this.
1. Navigate to the system folder
2. open the build.prop with an text editor
3. Search this line
htc.audio.alt.enable=1
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4. and change it to the follow (yes, it's only switching from 1 to 0 - enabled to disabled)
htc.audio.alt.enable=0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
5. save this as build.prop
6. reboot
7. ready

I want to know it too. But have you try adding that statement to the build.prop file even if it doesn't exist? I assume your IS is rooted, of course.

Wiimote Support!

So I somewhat got Wiiremote support on the Vivid. I extracted the Bluetooth.apk from a Cyanogenmod rom.
1.) you need to have a odexed rom (I used rumraider b3)
2.) install the attached file by putting it in /System/app (i put it on my sd card and used root explorer)
3.) install Bluez IME and the HID addon (google it )
4.) follow the IME's instuctions and select Wiimote (HID) for the device.
known problems:
lights continue to blink, it's connected and won't turn off but the lights blink instead of show the 1
use at your own risk, this worked for me, no one else has tested it. Let me know how it works for you

i'm not sure you can try? i don't see why it wouldn't.
The HTC Sense bluetooth apk is the "roadblock" for pairing the remotes. swapping it out should solve problems for all the pairing problems.
You know, I never would have thought of trying this on my own. I've got a bluetooth device that won't sync properly with anything stock on the vivid but I had GB ROM that I think used the telstra bluetooth stack that worked perfectly. Since going to ICS it had stopped working again but after reading this post I decided to pull the Bluetooth.apk off that old ROM and it works perfectly again.
Thanks for the tip.
Is this possible on the new stock ATT ICS rom? How can I backup or get the original installer for bluetooth on this rom? Thank you.

You can use a file browsing app like Root Explorer.
The Bluetooth.apk will be in system/apps. Mount system to R/W
move the original file to your sdcard somewhere.
And take the one posted in op's post up above.
And paste and install it in system/apps.
You need root permissions to do this though. Good luck.

It looked like I was able to just open the apk file posted and install it. Do you think this is possible? I didn't want to screw up my phone if I didn't have the original to replace it. Thanks.

it has to be put in the system apps folder because that's where the phone looks for the bluetooth support. also it needs some elevated permissions and isn't made to comply with superuser.
you can make a backup just in case
Had it sync fine the first time I tried it, and then my dad called and my screen off profile was too low so my phone restarted lol. Now I can't get it to sync again! When I Activate Bluetooth with Bluez IME selected I get a "pairing request," and if I choose it from the notification menu it says to enter a PIN on the phone and device (which I can't because you can't enter a PIN on the wiimote, plus the IME isn't touch input anymore).
My steps:
Activate Bluetooth
Scan for devices - Nintendo RVL-CNT-01
Select Device Driver - Wiimote (HID)
Select IME - Bluez IME
Anddd the wiimote just times out. Any insight?
try uninstalling the apk that you installed via installer (not dropping in system/app) if you haven't already
then maybe try reinstalling bluez IME?
i wish i could be more help!

[Q] In-call volume

Hello, I hope someone can help me.
The scenario is the following:
I've got a optimus black (Obviusly) flashed with the lastest cyanogenmod (cm-10.1-20130221). The problem is the in-call volume, it's as low I can't hear anything if I'm in the street so, I searched posts related with this issue, I found and tried:
-Volume+ --> It was the only which worked but, unfortunately the earphone boost is very slight, so it isn't enough.
-Increasing the volume steps --> This does nothing for my purposes, no earphone boost.
-AudioHack 2.1 --> This neither worked.
So, after I've tried this "methods", I saw in other models (I don't now if in mine is possible) a way in which you modify a file to gain more volume. This is the post I'm refering to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1722136
Is this possible in optimus black?

I've done all that you say in your post, I think I'm doing something wrong because when I reboot my phone it doesn't goes further the lg logo. I'm going to explain you how I'm doing your steps.
Scenario: cm-10.1-20130221 with google apps (Last version)
-I use the default file explorer which comes with cyanogenmod (In root mode)
-Then I go to /system/
-After that, I open the file with the default text editor which comes by default with cyanogenmod and at the bottom of the file I write "ro.config.vc_call_vol_steps=5", and then I save the file
-Finally I open the properties of the file with file explorer and I set rw-rw-rw
am I right? If not, say me the way you do this or the step(s) I'm doing wrong.
Thanks a lot
In CM you don't have to do that. In CM, the calls are good

Just like Samsung phones, the sounds are both in the ui folder and inside the apk. You need to replace apk to stop remaining sounds. So in short, yes it gets rid of the sound

copy and paste with droid manager. also if i deleted the camera apk if wont let me copy another one in the system/app i guess i will reset and try again unless there's a way to restore the original without resetting the watch.

[HOW TO] Note3 Playstore/Samsung Apps Spoof

Alright guys, Iv figured out another nice little mod to view both Samsung Apps & Google Playstore as a Note 3 on your mobile device, in my case my Galaxy S4.
You might be wondering why we would even want to do this ? At this stage Note 3's have access to exclusive APK's for example the app "Atooma" for the gear !
Your mobile device MUST be rooted. Also please keep a backup of your original build.prop.
Also I cant confirm this works on every device, although works perfectly fine on my Galaxy S4 i9505.
So lets dive straight into it.
1. Open/pull "/system/build.prop" from your rooted mobile device using a root file browser or adb.
2. Open file in a text editor.
3. Replace the default lines with the following:
Code:
ro.product.model=SM-N9005
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=hltexx
ro.product.device=hlte
ro.product.board=MSM8974
ro.build.description=hltexx-user 4.3 JSS15J N9005XXUBMJ3 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=samsung/hltexx/hlte:4.3/JSS15J/N9005XXUBMJ3:user/release-keys
4. Save changes.
5. Set permissions to your modified build.prop if they do not match with other files in the /system directory.
6. Navigate to "Settings -> Application Manager -> All -> Google Playstore" and "Clear data", "Clear cache" & "Force Stop".
7. Restart device.
You will now have access to Note 3 exclusive apps, I recommend downloading the apps you want and reverting the changes you have made to the build.prop.
What I have done is kept a backup of my original build.prop in the system partition and I just swap them around when I need to by renaming & restarting, remembering to clear data & cache of the Playstore !
Remember to hit thanks !

Unconfirmed, I would say only 4.3.. although you never know, just give it a try.
Worse case scenario if anything goes wrong just reflash your rom and it will revert all your changes.

I use root explorer, which includes a text editor.
I would recommend pulling your build.prop to your PC tho, so you can simply copy & paste.

just tried and when i try to replace the build with the modded one it wont keep the mod it reverts back to sgh-i337
im using 4.2.2 i think thats my problem.
thanks for the intel i will try it again when i get 4.3http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif
If this works with earlier versions (pre-4.3) then this would remedy the issue that I and so many others have been having
with the Gear Manager application where it won't sync with the watch because it detects that you are using an "unsupported device".
I might try this out sometime...

Sprint Nexus 6 Wifi Tethering *root* UPDATED WORKING

Has anyone got "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" to work? I am able to toggle portable wifi tethering set it up and connect but will pull no data .
UPDATE
Got it to work after installing Sqlite editor from GPS.
Instructions: Open Sqlite editor navigate to data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db > click on Global > add string Setting.db addition of tether_dun_required value 0
Then open root explorer and open build.prop add net.tethering.noprovisioning=true to bottom
Reboot=Profit

doesn't the build.prop trick do the job as well?
For sprint device i did both with successful results.
For Sprint, I only added tether_dun_required, rebooted and it worked. This was after I factory reset, however. It didn't work before that for an unknown reason.

Mods Can you move to General section please.
Hey all. Are you guys using the Nexus 6 from the GPS or from Sprint? I got mine from Sprint, rooted and added lines to setting.db and build.prop factory reset and still can't even toggle Portable Wifi without getting Tethering or Hotspot Error....
My next task is to flash the factory rom direct from dev.google
I am unable to Wi-FI tether even after doing both tether_dun_required and the net.tether.noprovisioning in the build.prop. Bought straight from GPS, so not sure what I am doing wrong :/
EDIT:
It was a typo by me, the actual string is "net.tethering.noprovisioning"... "tethering" not "tether" after fixing this, all works well. I'd advise anyone struggling to just give spelling another check.

Hey all,
So I had to edit the two files in a specific order. Here's what worked for me on a Sprint Nexus 6.
- Root device
- add the additional line for build.prop
- factory reset
- check to see if you can toggle WiFi tether/hotspot from settings [if so continue]
- add line value to settings.db
- soft reboot
Hope it works.

Just to share what worked for me. It wasn't working for me initially on a Sprint N6 either, but I really didn't want to factory reset. I was able to just recreate the steps you did but replacing the factory reset with a soft reboot and now it's working.
Since I had already made the changes unsuccessfully, I did have to delete then re-add the entries since it does seem to matter the order they were done.
**edit: welp, Nevermind. It worked a few times but now I'm back to seeing the error saying I may not be subscribed.
**edit #2: I had the letter t in "true" capitalized. Changed it to lower case, reboot and it's been working for two days!
For those that don't want to edit files (but don't mind spending a couple bucks)... I can confirm that "WiFi Tether Router" app is working as well.
Settings for the N6, as provided by the dev:
Interface wlan0
Method 2
Channel 1
Encryption wpa2-psk
"No Firmware Reload" <- UNCHECKED
Verify those, reboot, then open and enable (Root required for it to reset the radio).
*Edit: clarity
From what I could gather from the thread and personal trial and error, this is what worked for me.
1. Unlock
2. Root
3. Download root explorer and sqlite editor
4. Open sqlite editor
4.a - under the files tab navigate to "data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db/global"
4.b - click the + symbol to add a new entry
4.c - In name section put "tether_dun_required" all lower case exactly as it appears here.
4.d - In value section put "0" thats the number zero.
4.e - click save and exit program.
5 Open root explorer
5.a - Under the root tab browse to "/system"
5.b - long press on file "build.prop" choose "open in text editor" choose "yes" to remount as read-write and continue
5.c - add this as a new line to the bottom of the file "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" all lower case exactly as it appears here. Just 1 uppercase letter here can make it not work.
5.d - save and exit
6 Reboot
7 Native tethering should work now.
Hope this helps. Let me know if I missed anything. Typed this up on my Nexus 9 tethered from my Nexus 6. :laugh:
Thanks for this. Worked perfect for me.

This is what i did and worked for me and i only had to edit build.prop using the phone. I'm sure that it will work for everyone else. I'm also wondering if there is a way to edit/add the line we need for build.prop without having to root? something like "build.prop net.tethering.noprovisioning=True" in adb shell and it will add the line for us? hope someone can answer this for me please.
1. Enable developer mode (Go to Settings -> About phone, and click on the build number until the developer mode is enabled).
2. Enable USB debugging under Settings -> Developer options
3. Connect the device with a USB cable to a computer with the Android SDK platform tools installed
4. Start an adb shell: adb shell
5. In the adb shell, run this command: settings put global tether_dun_required 0
Edit the Build.Prop
6. Then open root explorer and open build.prop add net.tethering.noprovisioning=True to bottom
Thanks for the info. It works using Cricket sim
