[Q] S4 Mini - KitKat Issues - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
My phone model is S4 mini DUOS (GT-I9192). I have several problems with new KitKat version. I'm sure you have answers for it. Please help me to solve these problems.
When I updated my device with INU (India) version and if I used screen lock method (PIN, Password, Pattern) I can't use Select SIM (Prefered SIM > Voice Call > Ask always) for any call.
When I update my device with SER (Rusia) version, my contacts list items are display as wrong way (last name as first and first name as last).
INU version has Sinhala language and can I download it for SER version ?
I can't install zip file because no any option under recovery mode (Volume Up+Home+Power). Therefore I can't taste S5 Boot Animation Screen and S5 Music Player.
Hope you will reply me with positive answers.
Have a nice day.
Thanks.

its in contacts app settings i guess

Have you tried SilviuMik rom? I have installed his Russia rom..
[GT-I9192]-[ROM][Odin]Galaxy S4 Mini Duos 4.4.2 KitKat TouchWiz Rom 30/07/2014
I checked your 2 problems and no problem with me.
The contacts problem you can configure it to show last name or first name in contacts configuration.

You can change it easily in the contact list settings...

And maybe you should install a custom recovery...

SECRET CODES - unlocked #Network selection solved

First of all, i think this section belongs to better group than general thats why i think that it should be in apps themes section..
as it serves a better purpose like of apps in knowing about our phone...
So here i present you the collection of codes that work on almost all galaxy devices - importantly GRAND
credit- well i am just a geek and have found this through google
The secret codes can be used for several purposes, such getting the info of your device, resetting call counter, manage connectivity and radio, getting battery data, software and hardware version, setting up touchscreen, testing some features, changing CSC codes, and lots more
1.THE BIG QUESTION - What was the date on which my phone was manufactured ?
-Open your phone’s dialer and type the following code: *#197328640#.
-In case it does not work for you, try this one: *#*#197328640#*#* . (WELL I DIDNT GET SUCCESS IN IT :laugh
-This will open the Service Mode menu on your Galaxy Grand.
-Select the option N. 2, that is “Version Info”.
- On the next screen, select ‘HW Version” (here HW means hardware).
-Now you will see another set of options on the next screen. Now tap on “Read CAL Date”, and bingo! You can now see the date of manufacture of your phone.
In my case, it was 20130128 i.e 28th january 2013 .

Then there is some issue in your network SIM. I mean see if your SIM is activated, maybe it is not recognising in the S4 Mini.

Dial pad

Dear note 2 users,
i updated my note 2 to 4.3 trough ota since i had dr.ketan's prerooted india rom and gave me notification i could update. so i had a 4.3 india version rom (official) since there was no multilanguage on it i downloaded the hong kong version.
now when i want to make a phonecall , push call icon , then your dial pad opens and before update i could just tab the numbers cotaining certain letters to get the number of a specific person for example i have a friend called MARGIE i would dial 627443 and all phone numbers cointaining those letters in their name woumd pop up, now it just shows numbers , is this a bug or is it just an option i need to enable
anyone else having this issue ???
no one ?

No encryption possible
Hi SilviuMik,
thank you for your 4.4.2 firmware version. I flashed your firmware according to your instruction, installed my apps etc.
Then I wanted to encrypt my GT-I9192, wallpluged it, battery charged to 100%. After entering the passphrase, the phone rebooted and showed the android logo. It appears for a minute and the phone reboots without being encrypted.
Can anybody confirm this behavior or give me a clue what went wrong?

U can install direct;y . If u already have 4.4.2 u can`t downgrade to MH2 ( 4.2.2 ) . So just flash it over . U will trigger Knox to 0x1 tho

I have no clue actually . I don`t use Kies at all
My contacts stay on google account and i sync them there .
Maybe kies does not like custom roms
And u need new version of Kies for 4.4.2 VERSION : 3.2.14083_17
I solved the problem by re-installing the Samsung USB driver on the laptop.
---------- Post added at 08:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 PM ----------
One more question,
With the original 4.2.2 i had problems outside the cities with the second sim when using in 3g mode.
Practically if I used the second sim in 3g mode reception was really bad. In 2g reception was good.
Do you know if this problem is a hardware problem or was solved with this custom rom?
Thanks,
D

Hello, I'm from Cluj-Napoca, Romaina.
You are right, signal is quite low on sim 2. Also sim2 has signal problems outside of the city in 3g mode. In 2g i have full signal.
Should I use XXU*** modem?

U are from Romania as me, i use XXU*** modems ( Russia have XXU ) If u use mostly SIm2 on 3g move it to primary slot SIM 1 better speed . Sim2 is mostly made for 2g usage , calls only

Good advice. Thank you.
Something is really strage, last night i got a 3% discharge rate with all services stopped, no screen, data or wifi.
Today I also put the second sim in 2g mode (better signal), all services stopped and I still have a 3% discharge rate.
In <Better battery stats> i see a process "system_server" with 71% usage. What could it be?
Also in android standard battery stats I see Android System with a lot of CPU usage: 50 min of CPU usage.. only for operating system. I looked on other android devices and I see 5-10 min usage for Android System.
Does the CSC matters? Mine is CSC:I9195OXXBML1 and I notice yours is different.

Something is really strage, last night i got a 3% discharge rate with all services stopped, no screen, data or wifi.
Today I also put the second sim in 2g mode (better signal), all services stopped and I still have a 3% discharge rate.
In <Better battery stats> i see a process "system_server" with 71% usage. What could it be?
Also in android standard battery stats I see Android System with a lot of CPU usage: 50 min of CPU usage.. only for operating system. I looked on other android devices and I see 5-10 min usage for Android System.
Does the CSC matters? Mine is CSC:I9195OXXBML1 and I notice yours is different.

CSC does not matter . I have m own CSC . I think u have a bad configured app / setting or an bad app . Try to see with Betterbatterystats or with Wakelock detector which app is hurting
At me Android system is with 5-10% battery
Just two little thing with your I9192XXUCNJ3 rom:
I am using it and it works.
The thing which is wrong is, that in the transparent weather application (which comes with this rom), the wheater is always in English language ("fog", or "partly sunny"), even if another language is set (I am using another language on my mobile).
Also at the place where the SMS can be viewed, the date on which the SMS are sent/received is always in English.
In older ROMs (4.2) this things were okay in my language, not in English. I know this are not very important things, but maybe they can be fixed even so.
... excuse me my bad English.
Call recording
does this rom contains the build in to dialer call recorder?

Go to the Menu > Other Tools > CSC Changer and see a list of available CSC in your device.
If there is XSG in the list, you can change to that CSC. Otherwise you have to download that firmware (using Menu > Firmware Browser) and flash via Odin.

What firmware did you install via Odin?
Find the firmware for XSG (UAE) by open the menu Firmware Browser, enter XSG into the CSC textbox and tap Go button to search.

You may brick your device by flashing firmware from another model. So no need to risk yourself.
You can find ALL AVAILABLE firmwares for your model (N915G) by leave the CSC textbox empty (blank) and tap Go button to search.
As there is no N915G firmware for UAE now, there is nothing to do. You have 2 options: wait until it becomes available, or try the firmware for your model from another region. I see the following regions are currently available: Australia, India, Singapore.
Got the idea, thanks
Did you know, that...
the Usage History (Headset Connect counter, Charger Connect counter, S Pen Detach counter) remain unchanged even if you factory reset the device.
New update v2.1.0:
- Update Color database.
- Some improvements and optimizations.
(including: install to the external storage, auto close the running service when the app exits,...).
thx a lot this is the best app that i used ever

Question Changing CSC for free using SamFW Tool | No Root required! - A brief guide!

As the title suggests, I was able to successfully change the CSC on my factory unlocked (unbranded) Fold 3 - F926B/DS bought in Germany with OXM firmware having Android 13 & one UI 5.0 from EUX to INU csc using SamFW Tool v3.31 in hardly 2-3 mins. Kindly note that I also looked into other options to do this like Samkey tool (paid service) and alliance shield app (which doesn't work anymore) etc before engaging with the SamFW Tool as none were simple/working with no complications whatsoever involved.
My main objective to change the CSC was to enable call recording and couple of other features (including some pleasant surprises listed in the end of the post) which were available in the INU csc with little to no hassle. The process was pretty simple, straight forward and most importantly, FREE . It DOESN'T require any factory reset, flashing of roms or wiping cache partition before or after the process.
The step by step guide process which worked for me is as follows:
STEP 1: Click here - SamFW Tool Download - to download the latest version of SamFW tool.
STEP 2: Remove the sim card and connect your phone to a computer and make sure the phone's drivers are installed.
STEP 3: Unzip the downloaded file. Right click on the file SamFwFRPTool.exe and 'Run as Administrator'.
STEP 4: After the software opens, make sure your phone is detected before proceeding. If its detected, click on ADB tab in the software.
STEP 5: In your phone, go to developer options and enable 'usb debugging'.
STEP 6: In your phone, open phone dialer and type *#0*# to get into test mode. Leave the phone unlocked and keep it aside now.
STEP 7: Click on 'Change CSC' button in the ADB tab of the tool. Now the tool will connect to your phone, check and list the available CSCs which your phone model supports as shown in the pic attached.
STEP 8: Choose a CSC which you wish to change to from the drop down menu in the pop-up window as shown in the pic attached.
NOTE: The tool also has the option to force the phone to accept a CSC not listed/supported as well by manually entering the same. However, I would not recommend doing it if you really wish to get OTA updates and also to evade any unforeseen issues. I must admit, I haven't frankly tried this and do not know what lies in the pandora box to be honest.
STEP 9: After choosing the CSC from the drop down, the tool quickly connects to the phone, changes the CSC and restarts the phone.
STEP 10: After the phone restarts, unlock the phone using your pin/password, insert your simcard, check the change of CSC in software information, disconnect the phone from the computer and also disable the 'usb debugging' in the developer options.
That's it! All done. Phone restarts with the new chosen CSC and the related features will now be active!
BONUS: There is also an option in the ADB tab in the SamFW Tool named 'Battery information' which gives the complete information of the battery status including the 'charge/discharge cycles' along with its temperature, voltage etc. like in the pic attached. Do note that the information shown in the 'Genuine battery' section isn't correct for some reason and always shows as 'NO' for any phone with/without genuine battery.
With my choice of INU csc the following major changes/surprises were noticed over the EUX:
1. Call recording and a couple of other INU specific features are now enabled (google for more info on what csc enables what features).
2. Not sure why but Battery backup has increased significantly after the csc change to INU. SOT (Screen On Time) which has fallen to 3-4 hrs after the OTA update to One Ui 5.0 & Android 13 is now back to 5-7hrs or more.
3. RAM management has definitely got better. With EUX csc it used be around 5-6GB during standby and now its always around 3-4GB when the phone is idle.
4. Instead of 4G or 4G+, now it shows LTE and LTE+.
5. Mobile data speed has increased both in 5G (Jio True5G network) and in LTE+ when compared to EUX CSC.
6. 5G signal strength has improved drastically. Signal loss or switching to 4G+/LTE+ is very low now.
7. 5G to 4G/LTE switching while calls (VoLTE/VoNR) is more seamless now. Latching back onto 5G network after a call is a breeze now unlike earlier with EUX csc.
8. Phone definitely got faster for some reason. Can very much feel the difference when switching between apps, multi-tasking, even opening/closing apps and other day-to-day tasks.
etc...
Haven't tested whether the OTA updates will still get pushed after the change in CSC yet, as my phone is already updated to the latest patch as I write this. Should absolutely work IMO as long as we choose a CSC which the phone supports but in any case will update the thread once the next update via OTA is available/pushed by Samsung.
Disclaimer: Please be informed that all the above information is purely based on experience of using the tool for changing CSC only which worked well for me with my Fold 3. Cannot take responsibility if it doesn't work for you.
Does it work for Fold 4. Want to change CSC from Korean Region to INU (India). Please guide
Sorry, haven't tried it on Fold 4. Logically it shud work, I guess. There is no harm in connecting n checking what CSCs does ur model supports using the tool IMO.
Tried out but it does not work. It shows only the Korean csc. Even that seems to be not changing
Oh k. I think the tool works, else u wudnt b seeing the CSC which ur phone supports.
I have checked sources in the web as well on this and looks like Fold 3 or 4 with Korean CSC supports only CSC from Korea.
I guess u can still force a CSC on to it replacing the Korean one but thats too risky as u will b missing OTA updates and im not aure wat all things it will mess up.
Awesome! It works and it doesn't wipe the device. I just switched from G975U VZW to CCT without any issues.

Happy to hear that. BTW I also got samsung pay/wallet to work as well by installing its apk file today after changing the system language to a local one specific to the changed CSC i.e., English (India) for INU CSC in my case.
I confirm that it is working on a stock android 13! Great tool!
(It worked on the second try though )
Has anyone tired it on a Fold 4, Mine is XAA and I want to convert it to INU. Haven't been abe to do it as yet.
Let me know if someone finds a way, mine is a US version and I want to convert it to the India CSU.
Thanks in advance

Oh great. Getting otas after the change?
Does OTA work after change?
Hello, can somebody please briefly summerise the options for switching the CSC/Firmware?
I read other threads and this one and now am confused which method actually would work for me.
My situation: i have a Samsung A52s 5G purchased from Deutsche Telekom in Germany, sold separately, not bundled with a contract.
And i am having a contract with a different carrier on a different network, but a german SIM card.
My phone is configured all english, and i need to keep that.
Because of assumed network optimisations and the problem of delayed updates of "branded" phones, i would like to convert the phone from the current CSC of DTM to the DBT using fimrware (A528BXXS1DVL2/A528BOXM1DVK5/A528BXXU1DVK5/A528BXXS1DVL2), which i hope would link me to updates directly provided by Samsung.
I found "https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...official-firmware-all-samsung-device.2697238/" and "https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-multi-csc-codes.4436853/page-5#post-87485577 ", but i am not sure whther the methods described there only apply for UPDATING (within the same CSC) the phone with non-OTA methods, or whether that also covers SWITCHING the CSC?
In the end i have two questions:
1) So far i believed that "simply" putting an official stock Samsung firmware (multi CSC in my case, containing the DBT, but apparently NOT containing the DTM) would bring me there.
But then i read that this might not be suffficient. Instead i also would have to switch the CSC in my Phone's config, which apparently would require purchasing a license for a Samkey unlock code.
Because otherwise i would not receive any OTA updates once i switched just the firmware.
Is that actually true?
I would prefer not to have to buy a Samkey...
And to make the confusion even bigger: now i read, SamFw Tool would also be an option?
But: is that trustworthy? And: from posts of some of you: this might even obsolete to switch the firmware, do i understand that right?
2) If switching firmware still is required: would using Odin/Heimdall be the only option to switch the firmware, or would adb sideloading do the same job as well? I am asking because i don't have access to a windows machine.
Would be so great if someone of you could untangle my confusion a bit, thank you.

Did not automatically receive the OTA updates with the recent DVL9 update. However, tried a work around to change the CSC back to EUX via the same tool (which is a 2 min task) to check if I can get OTA again.
And yes it worked! immediately after changing the OTA to its home CSC, was able to see OTA in the updates section of the phone. So, I updated the phone to the latest version (DVL9) and then changed the CSC back to INU after the update . All is well and quick! .

May be TUR csc has restricted options/features. In my example after I changed to INU csc (India one) all the India related options got automatically activated like call recording, spam filter, samsung pay using cards etc etc. which weren't available with the EUX csc before the change.

Any potential issues using INU csc in the UK? I use Samsung pay already but native call recoding would be really useful for me

Might be worth clearing cache and data from Google play services see if that helps. Having the same device with 2 different cscs might have confused Google
Edit
Any reason your Google play store is out of date or is it connected to your original issue
