I spent all day trying to get my phone to send and receive MMS messages on vodafone. tried a few variations of the settings including leaving in the password (dublin) and removing it. Vodafone say the handset is not supported. So I need to get another phone for the rare occasions that someone sends me a picture message and I can swap out the sim for a couple of minutes.

Do people actually still use MMS

Id be more concerned why this guy can't attach a picture to an email. Or use whatsapp or viber or facebook messenger........

Since the last OTA CM update a lot of my app notifications don't make any sound, just vibrate (I've noticed it especially with WhatsApp and FB Messenger). They appear to be turned on - am i missing something?

Hi all,

Has anyone been having GPS issues on exodus? I noticed over the last few days that google maps is off by about 500m when in browse mode, but perfect when in navigation mode.

I have done everything to try to resolve this up to and including a clean flash, but the issue is the same.

A GPS status app gives me a LAT/LON in exactly the right position, so I don't think it is a hardware issue.

Thanks,

Ken

No, perfect GPS is what brought me to Exodus in the first place.

In the GPS status settings reset and download fresh GPS assistance data from the internet, this will fix it, did for me

mass_debater, I just tried that, but no joy for me I wonder is it worth flashing back to CM12 to see if it is a software or hardware issue.

I rang most places I could think of/find on google in DCC, none would do it

Eventually had it done by electronicpartner.ie in Galway, was collected & returned by courier - €110

Yes, it's the next thing to try. Do a Nandroid first so you can cone back to Exodus

GSM Connection on Talbot St - nearly at corner of Talbot St/Gardiner St. did the replacement screen today for €160 for anyone else that's stuck.

GSM Solutions were a couple of euro more expensive and the part would need to be ordered, could be anything up to two weeks. Electricpartner.ie in Galway have a frighteningly good price of €100 but again, the part could take up to two weeks to come in.

In the end I paid the extra for the convenience. Dropped it in at 11, collected at 5. Would recommend.

Sounds to me like the microphone at the bottom of your device might be busted. There is a second microphone at top of the device which might explain why you can be heard on speaker.

nah, this happened to me on an old phone.

Plug in the earphones, then take them back out, there's dust or fluff in the earphone connection and the reason people can't hear you on "normal" is because the phone thinks you have a headset plugged in and has disabled the bottom mic.

Thanks, but It (the mic) works just fine on VoIP stuff like viber and hangouts and I can record audio with it.... so I'm at a loss as to why its only on a cell -calls it doesn't work unless it's on speaker.

OK but reading my other reply would you still say the same?

Not sure if this helps but I did have an issue for a while where people couldn't hear me and it turns out that the reason was that I was covering the microphone with my finger when holding the phone. Probably not what you're experiencing, but I said I would mention it just in case.
