NDrive v10 or v11

Yeah,

I got v10 running. The small screen was fixed when disabled Compatibility Mode in SpareParts...

But I tried using today in the street and v10 is buggy. I'm using a QStar 10Hz GPS via Bluetooth.

NDrive takes 5 seconds to connect via Bluetooth GPS Provider (Mock option enabled). But after that, it seems that bluetooth is sending too much data for application and NDrive hang.

If I change my GPS receiver for 1Hz, it will work. But sometimes NDrive get lost: I stop the car but in the map it keeps its inertia, moving forward...

So v10 is really bad...

I got v11, but not able to make it work. Even asked for NDrive support, but nothing so far. Any idea?

Have you tried MapDroyd / NavDroid?

Works for me (but on gtab).

Uses open streets maps, which pack up small.

MapD is free (no navigation, just maps plus an indication of where your GPS says you are).

NavD has navigation, isn't free but cheap.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] psychoace:
For those who have used Google maps how did you get navigation to show? I have never seen it once on any cm7 build that I've used for the nook and I'm using the latest version of gapps

Hi gang....just checking...will launcher pro run on stock rom and whats the biggest features or benefits of LauncherPro?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brs330:
I am using LauncherPro with stock 3588.

Following are some advantages.

Number of icons on the home screen can be customized.

Dock can be customized.

Faster than the stock classic home.

Also, you can install a Home Switcher like Home Switcher for Froyo to switch between multiple launchers.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidafx:
I'm running froyo 2.2.1 (leaf r3) and want to know if there's any new stable ROMS that have Thai fonts already included.

There seems to be a whole load of misinformation about how to install Thai fonts and whether they are already installed in certain ROMS. I've seen many people saying fine now they've upgraded to froyo and all working with Thai fonts displaying correctly -- well that isn't my experience running 2.2, just the same as 2.1 with little sqaures.

So I tried the manual install from a thread on here by installing fresh / font changer and busybox, that doesn't work either fresh is complaining that it doesn't have write access -- my phone is fully rooted so don't know why it saying this.

I've been wanting Thai fonts for months and that was the only reason I rooted my handset and upgraded to 2.2 all to no avail. Can someone put me out of my misery and tell me a solution that works or a ROM that definitely has the fonts included ?

thanks in advance

Ok, I dont have internet in my house I use my cell phone.

The thing is with full bars I'm getting 512kbs in 3G, (My download speed is like 50kbs/s ) is that normal? Is there a way to improve that?

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckjy:
You could try using the attached DSP Manager to raise output levels. It works with many builds of Android on phones, but I don't have the tablet handy to test.

Edit: Others on the forum have reported loss of sound after tinkering with DSP Manager and had to reload their ROM. Not much testing has been done so proceed at your own risk.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtuttle2:
just tried it and it says "there is a problem parsing the package"

Thanks though. Anyone else?

I just wanted to say that I tried dsp manager a while back, as I had it on my Evo as well with no issues.

Good thing for backups!

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] convolution:
So far I have been uninstalling apps by dragging the icon from my app drawer onto the homescreen with ADW EX launcher, and then long pressing the icon and selecting uninstall. That brought me to the uninstall screen where i proceeded to uninstall stuff.

However, I am worried that I will leave behind crap folders in the SD card; random leftover remnants that the uninstall failed to remove. I see a lot of folders in my sd card that belongs to apps i once had but no longer have.

Is there a 100% clean way of uninstall crap off of my phone?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kevin001111:
just use a file manger from the market and delete the folders. I do not know of a way to get rid of the SD card contents AND the app at the same time though, sorry.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mputtr:
What i do is i pull open the app drawer, menu, remove app, tap the app, force stop, tap clear data, then uninstall.

That should do the trick i think

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I AM VS4:
I would recommend using the "File Manager" and delete the folders upon uninstalling (or) Plug into your computer and clean your sdcard. I clean my sdcard every month to conserve a little memory. Just go through every folder and delete stuff you don't need.

When does the 30$ 4g end. Ie when will I have to Pay more for 4gs
[Thunderbolt Accessories] cuguy:
Don't quote me on this but I think tiered data plans are coming soon, probably before the summer (iphone 5 release?).

From the past, $15 for 250 MB, $30 for 5GB (?) , and it gets up to $60+ for their "corporate" plans.

Now, that was for 3g so maybe they'll bump up the price a little for 4g. I wouldn't be surprised if they do that because VZW is a soulless, money leeching who*e. Hopefully we can keep riding on the "unlimited" data plan when Verizon changes their policy.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] IISiDeK1CKII:
If they take us off of it, VZW terminates it's contract with us. You no longer have an ETA and are free to go.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] mcmillanje:
I Don't think you've actually read the contract and what constitutes termination.

That being said, vzw has a good history of allowing grandfathered pricing.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] IISiDeK1CKII:
I don't think you have.

https://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c...GREEMENT&jspName=footer/customerAgreement.jsp

I suppose "terminate" was the wrong term to use in regards to VZW, but they severely alter your contract, therefore they let you leave.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] xXJay_RXx:
haha got em ;)
[Thunderbolt Accessories] mcmillanje:
Oops, ya got me.

[Thunderbolt Accessories] Bigandrewgold:
but if the change it to 5 gigs for $30 then there is no material(monetary) effect on you
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ERIFNOMI:
So if they change a (theoretical) voice plan of 1000 min for $10/month to 10 min for $10/month there is no material affect on you? You get charged for going over min. If you used all or most of 1000 min then you get bumped down to 100 but still use 1000 min you'll have to pay more. Would this not count towards you being able to drop out of your contract either?

If you got the $30/month unlimited plan because you're a heavy user and you use say, ~10GB a month and they change your plan to $30/month for 5GB plus $10/GB over (or whatever they decide the rate to be) you're going to be paying more for the same things you got on your own contract.

I think they would be breaking their end of the contract. Even if they could get away with it, it would mean a lot of bad press. Verizon doesn't want any more of that than they already have.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] brandnewsimmy:
I used basically the same minute comparison when trying to get out of T-Mobile once they started throttling at 5 gigs. It was a no go for me. Needless to say I was pretty heated since I often used 6-7 gigs and when throttled would get 59kbps on their 3G. Hopefully it doesn't come to that again.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ERIFNOMI:
But isn't that in the contract somewhere for T-Mobile? I'm pretty sure somewhere it says they have a soft-cap of 5GBs. I think the scenarios are a little different in this case.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] 1234567188:
I think throttling is a different case then changing the amount
[Thunderbolt Accessories] unremarked:
If you have $30 unlimited 4G LTE data now, you will keep it forever. VZW will only force you to change your plan if you upgrade to a device that is incompatible with your current plan. For instance, VZW offered unlimited data on their 3G air cards. That plan has been discontinued but the customers who have it get to keep it on any 3G air card device they purchase. If they want to upgrade to 4G, however, they would have to give up that plan due to plan/device incompatibility. The system would not allow it.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vunuts:
If you have the paid version of titanium backup, you can select the native messaging app and freeze it and see if your messaging still works, if it does still work, use root explorer and make a copy of the native app, save it to the sd card and delete the original. Just throwing out trial and error options, so I'm not responsible if it doesn't work lol. If deleting the native messaging apk caused fc's, just copy and paste the original and you should be back to where you started though.

I'm fairly certain that SMS are stored somewhere different and the apps just access that single location; you don't have the same message in multiple locations. If you downloaded a third messenger app later, you should be able to access all the previous conversations as well.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MHANLAN:
I have really enjoyed -and appreciated!- the work that folks have done here...been using this forum a lot since Oct - thanks!

But now I could use some help. I've managed to brick my gtab to the WSOD. I've searched and tried -several times- the different unbrick methods, particularly nvflash, but no avail - I must be doing something stupid/wrong.

The gtab boots to a white screen, whether 'normal' or 'APX mode' boot. If I connect with nvflash, sometimes it reads the USB drive, sometimes not (using Vega drivers under Win7/64). USBDeview shows an active connection as storage device.

Nvflash starts flashing, then (apparently) hangs; after 15 minutes, no change....

Since everything's white on white, all I can do it go by the 'symptoms' on my PC.

I didn't see anything specific to this in searches, and have tried (all?) other methods in the threads....

Anyone have any ideas?

Sorry to make my thread be a request for help, since I've really enjoyed lurking on the XDA boards for some time.....special thanks to you, Roebeet!

Thanks,
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] albright:
I'm no expert but I've had to use nvflash a few times already :)

APX should be a black screen (backlight off).

I assume that you can't turn off the tablet by holding the on/off button

for a long time (around 8 seconds or so)??

Perhaps you should let the battery run down completely until shutdown

(if the screen is locked on that shouldn't take all that long).

then try apx/nvflash again ...
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MHANLAN:
Thanks for the fast response....

1. I have used APX mode before when it was a black screen...that's not happening, now. But I can power/+ and it boots into a mode (albeit white screen and possibly white font) that nvflash recognizes and proceeds to flash...or so I think.

2. I have tried full-power-drain to where there's no response from the unit at all, until I charge it, at least a little. Have done that several times, no difference.

3. when I turn the unit off (holding in power button), it will turn off.

If I power up in 'WSOD APX' mode, and keep holding the power/+ buttons, it will eventually toggle off (black screen) for under a second, then start up again with WSOD.

Pretty brick.

Thanks again for any/all advice.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K J Rad:
Power on and Volume Up is Recovery Mode, which is why the screen isn't going back off like it should.

Power on and Volume Down is APX Mode. Try this and nvflash.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MHANLAN:
Sorry for the error - and thanks!

When I go into APX mode (-), nvflash will start and then hang (no response). I must be doing something dumb/stupid (like the power/+ (!)), but it's hung.

Thanks to all for your continued help...
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K J Rad:
You're welcome. I don't use windows for nvflash so I can't really help there other than to say to make sure you have the correct driver loaded and use the bekit 1105 image.

I've found Linux to be much easier for me ;-) Let us know how it works out.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MHANLAN:
Thanks - I've now tried it several ways, including Ubuntu and W7/64....

bat file now executes, creating partitions and copying img files, and ends normally. At that point, the driver loses the connection and then regains it. There is no change on the gTab screen, even after 5 min.

Powering back on -normally - goes back to WSOD, with a flash of black screen (less than a second) about 30s into it, then return to WSOD (although dimmer). Stays there (stopped it after 5 min).

Powering back on into Recovery mode - same symptoms as normal power on.

Anyone have any ideas?
