[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hereignssupreme:
Okay so the thing is my HD2 is not picking up locations (FourSquare, Maps,Yelp, etc..) unless Wi-Fi is on. I tried with GPS on as well and it didn't work either. It began happening a few days ago while running HyperDroidGBX, although I doubt it's because of it since I've been running HyperDroid since v.7 and locations worked excellent.

I also installed a few different ROMS to make sure, locations didn't work on any of them either. Instantaneous GPS fix had no effect. I tried different Radios as well, but no luck. After a few hours of trail and error, I finally decided to revert back to the dreaded WinMo 6.5 to check if it could detect my location without using Wi-Fi, and whaa-laaa, it did. But that's the point because I don't want to use WinMo.

Afterwards, I decided to re-install Android, and I did so thoroughly and careful. Even used TASK 29. Once I did so and got back to HyperDroid, no luck, still no locations. I know it doesn't have to anything to do with the ROMS, and I'm pretty sure MAGLDR and CWM don't have anything to do with the network locations. I tried 4 different Radios, if none of them worked I doubt any other would.

So in conclusion, if anyone has any suggestions on something I could try I would be more than grateful.

P.S.: I am looking at the bright side as well, at least now I get less battery drainage. :)

I have rooted my device and deleted most of the t-mobile bloatware.

I downloaded an app and moved some 3rd party apps to SD card. Now I have 70.27MB available memory.

Just wondering how come my galaxy s 4g only has 514.35MB TOTAL memory?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Success100:
Common issue...you can root and use titanium backup to gid rid off all those useless programs and then do the FOTA fix. Its frees up 250+ megs of system memory. Check out the development section

Sent from my DAMN Galaxy 4G¡!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] simeezee:
Thank you pointing me to the right direction. I need to start going to the development section more often. :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] mebizzle:
I've tried searching for this but I haven't found anything that works. I was on the SiulMagic's sense port and wiped/flashed to MIUI earlier and began to have issues with downloading apps from the Market. Hours and 3 different ROMs later I'm not back on the Sense ROM and I still cannot download anything. I'm getting a "Download was unsuccessful, please try again error" on every app and I have no idea what to do.

I've tried every combination of Force Stops and Data Clears that I can and it isn't helping.
[G2 and Desire Z General] derykisonder:
That's strange to be honest. Did you go into titanium backup and then find the market and then select wipe data? Might help
[G2 and Desire Z General] thugjedi:
god i am dieing with the same issue did you ever get yours going
[G2 and Desire Z General] ilostchild:
Wild shot here can your try clear data, and all that jaz then try to uninstall update for market, then try?
[G2 and Desire Z General] thugjedi:
Already tried all that did a superwipe but every time you first launch the market it automatically updates
[G2 and Desire Z General] cartman09:
I think all you need is to delete the smdl2tmp1 from the folder .android_secure on your sdcard. Its known to cause problems - helped me also.
[G2 and Desire Z General] HAK Devil:
Yep, exact same issue here. I flashed siulmagic's new port last night and since then have been unable to download from the market no matter how many different wipes and roms I try. I made a nandroid before flashing the sense rom of my perfectly functioning CM7 and even going back to that doesn't allow me to download from the market anymore. This is pretty messed up and hopefully a fix is found for this soon
[G2 and Desire Z General] mxthor3:
Do this...
[G2 and Desire Z General] thugjedi:
After alot of testing I have found out the problem does not have to do with your rom or your phone its your google account try testing with a friends account or create a random one it will download apps fine but even if you get a new phone using your current account you will have the same issue. For now you should be able to use the desk top site.
[G2 and Desire Z General] HAK Devil:
Alright, so yeah it is definitely not a rom issue and I was able to fix my problem by accessing the Android Market website from my phone and downloading an app from there. It downloaded and installed successfully from there and now my market is downloading all my apps normally on my phone from the market app itself :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] thugjedi:
just tried it did not work for me sent google a market help message heres to hoping
[G2 and Desire Z General] cartman09:
Aaaand my post has been succesfully ignored..
[G2 and Desire Z General] thugjedi:
Nope tried it dude
[G2 and Desire Z General] cartman09:
A long shot: unmount sdcard, try to install something.

A very long shot: do you have enough space for installing stuff?
[G2 and Desire Z General] I AM VS4:
Sounds like an issue you need to talk to a developer about fixing. This error that you are recieving, is the after math of a developer including and old outdated Market app. It would help to wipe or update but it seems like you are having issues with that too. You need to talk to a developer about this old Market app issue, and how it can be fixed. Hope I helped. :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] thugjedi:
Thanks did that last night, market help got back to me at 5 with a message saying they are working on it. All of of the sudden everything is working perfect don't no what they did but glad they did it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exceedinglimits:
does anyone know why my quadrant speeds are so slow on EC05? i was running midnight 4.2 on EB13 and getting ~2300 quadrant scores with conservative setting on setCPU.

I recently odined to eC05 and re-rooted and tried out the new ec05 syndicate rom. got scores barely around 2000. i thought it may be the rom (which i thought was weird) so i'm now on midnight 5.2 and getting around the same speeds.

I just checked in the syndicate thread and some users are posting 2300 scores...

Any ideas guys?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epic4GEE:
All I'll say is, I wouldn't be switching out roms based on slightly lower quadrant scores.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exceedinglimits:
err well ... it's the same as going to any rom, just testing different things out....

back to the original question though... is there something i can do about this? it seems like something that happened only as i went to ec05. i havent odin'd back to EB13 yet because of the 2300 quadrant score posts from other users.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ezsoulja:
I to have noticed lower scores.. :eek:
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomKing:
The scores are lower on Syndicate, K0nane assures us it's a Quadrant problem. Nevertheless, I've noticed no loss in speed in any use of the phone, Quadrant's "test" be damned!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
After flashing the ROMs did you guys check your SetCPU settings to make sure you were at the same clock speeds before flashing when you got the higher quadrants?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MysteryEmotionz:
On eb13 the rom devs used a modified sqlite. This fluffed the scores in quadrant. This modified sqlite caused more problems then it fixed and it turned out to be another quadrant hack like mounting the tpmfs. Run smart bench and I net the scores are nearly identical

I used to flash my old htc's with wm 6 and wanted to know what steps I would need to take in order to put the new warm on my inc?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] refthemc:
I still remember my old XV6900 :)

Its completely different now then it was in the good ol RUU windows rom days, now you download the rom and put it on your SD, do a Full wipe then flash :)

1. Make sure your rooted with a Custom Recovery (IE Clockworkmod Recovery)

2. Boot into Recovery and do a Nandroid backup just incase things go horribly wrong.

3. Do a full wipe*: Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache, and Wipe Dalvik Cache

4. Flash your rom from your Sd (IE Install Zip in CW)

5. Reboot :)

*It's usually recommended to do a Full Wipe when flashing between different roms, but if flashing to a new version of the same rom I would go with whatever the Dev advises,
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpc0480:
Awesome! Thanks for the update!
[A7 General] alicez:
Would someone please tell me what is supposed to be included in the Elocity 7 box when purchased?

Is it supposed to include a USB to USB cable? If not, how is it supposed to be connected to our computer (if necessary)?

I saw the following and wonder if if is correct (it doesn't mention a USB cable):

What is in the box:

eLocity™ 7-Inch Internet, Tablet with 4GB internal memory, rechargeable lithium polymer battery, user manual and safety guide, warranty card and AC adaptor with power cord.

Thank you.

Bobby
[A7 General] mrpete2u:
That's all folks!!!

Yup, that was all that was in the box. I actually had a screen protector in my box, but it got ruined when I tried to remove the tape from it. It was taped to the A7 to hold it.

I bought 5 bluetooth dongles from eBay - only 2 bucks each - and plugged them into my computers. I can easily transfer files now between all computers and the A7 - and my phones now - and each other.

Really there was nothing else in there.

I did buy a case....the USAGear neoprene black one. Bought it on Amazon. On sale now for about 13 bucks. Fits almost perfect. It could be just a touch longer, but looks good.

Make sure you do the upgrade to latest firmware from website, then Dexters mod 1.41 - makes it a great machine!

I have a bluetooth gps receiver coming - have heard they work with the A7.
[A7 General] alicez:
Thanks.

What firmware update are you referring to?

I already have PBJ8000.2.0.0133.

(I'm personally not too 'fond' of the updates because they keep replacing apps I previous removed. And I understand every future update will do the same.)
[A7 General] tumpy:
The A7 need a dedicated dev to work on it, thanks Dexter but your legion is to motorola, was using Dexter mod but went back to the stock rom, have less issue with stock than with Dexter mod..don't have to reinsert SD or USB and It show the correct SD card size ..
[A7 General] mrpete2u:
Firmware update

I believe the latest firmware update is 2.2

It was out in February - i think the 24th, but not sure.

Anyway, i did install the latest firmware, then in order to get the Market place app, I "upgraded" to Dexters mod 1.41 so I could install almost any app from marketplace.
[A7 General] Dexter_nlb:
i never seen sdcard (external) reported in stock rom reported correctly or even found? i know it mounts it at /storage/sdcard-disk0 but thats it, for previous releases.. can you tell me how you see it better or do you actually mean internal storage, because "correct sdcard size" is fine here too?

btw(little OT),

for those using stock and want all the new gameloft HD games running, you cannot use stock, as /storage is not supported, it reports "no free space".

if you want to use the usb cable, you still need to be able to switch between host/device, which is not working in our firmware...

you can manually switch but the OS do not acknowledge it correctly.
[A7 General] alicez:
Thanks.

I believe you might be mistaken. I have gone to the following site and it states latest firmware update is PBJ8000.2.0.0133, which is what I have.

(I don't know what the other posters are talking about as I am a beginner and it seems their posts are not answering my original question or are way "over my head.")
[A7 General] netstat_EVO:
The newbie on his grandmothers account is right.

He is naming the fw version

2.2 is the android OS version.

Not directly related.

Guess with dextermod were running android 1.41 ? Lol
[A7 General] droidflix:
Ya im looking forward to dexterbread 2.3 and maybe if were lucky even

dextercomb 3.0 LOL!

And in back to the topic,you only received the other accessories if you ordered

your tablet off of Amazon back when it first came out.It was a bonus package,

the only items in the box now are tablet with battery,power cord screen protector

and the paper work.
[A7 General] Dexter_nlb:
as no folio owners read here, i can tell you i seen 3.0 on my toshiba folio, very bad for now(soft egl), but its work in progress. but of course, its because we had part of the kernel source available, and im not alone on this at all. but kernel source helps when board changes are needed...
[A7 General] droidflix:
I can remember having some of the same problems with the droid 1 in the beginning but it got worked out and I am still using it as my main phone running gingerbread and can do anything that the newer phones can do and a lot of the things they cant.The ones of us that love this tablet for what it is and can understand even the basics will get a long and happy life out of the A7.

[A7 General] Dexter_nlb:
checked it already and its not complete, for compile.. and no details on how to actually making it compile..

tried to copy it on top of 2.6.36.3 but some scripts were missing, so its nice, but not really useful.

anyways A7 has different hardware, and is similar to the Harmony board (called naz10) where Asus the much newer Whistler board for their kit, which has more video mem and some other functions on the board we dont have here..

similar but not quite the same when you get technical.
[A7 General] mrpete2u:
Alicez, you are right about the firmware. I was mistaken on that one. Looks like you have the latest.

By now you are probably trying to find a case to put it in? I found a great one that just barely fits at amazon.com. It is made by USAgear - neoprene black.
[Xoom General] zeravla531:
Ok so I just read a book on the Kindle app and decided to use the Google Books for my next book because I like the split pages. My screen timeout is 30 seconds. The book app times out whereas the kindle app keeps the screen on. Does anyone know if there's a way to fix this or a setting I missed? I don't want to keep changing the default timeout every time I read.

Thanks

[General Questions and Answers] kkrind72:
I was trying to update my droid to a gingerbread from steeldroid section of ROM manager. I was using BB Gingerbread rom before doing this. Everything went fine, but it's stuck on the motorola logo. I know that you can get into recovery mode by pressing down power button and x, but I can't do this because my power button is broken. Is there any way to revert it back to the way it was? or is there maybe a way to get it into recovery mode another way?

Note: I have read other threads of people with similar problems. The difference between them and me is that they were able to get into recovery mode to reflash while I AM NOT able to do so. This is because my power button is completely useless on the phone...someone please tell me it's not totally bricked.

Thanks to anyone that can offer help!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] branchedout:
It's really odd.

The Atrix is my first smartphone, I been super excited to get it! Finally got it today.

Well, the battery's a little iffy. It won't charge past 40% on USB. If I do it via AC adapter, it gets to 40% and the screen starts to flash on and off and disconnects itself from the AC adapter.

I updated to the most recent system update, and I don't believe it's changing anything.

I appreciate any help I can get!

For the record here's the topics I checked out:

This guy cleaned off mold. No mold in my case.

This one is unresolved.

This one is unresolved as well.

Well, weirdest thing. I was playing around with it, and set it to windows media sync. It immediately jumped to 50% battery.

I plugged it into the AC adapter, and it charged to 60%!

It only seems to report battery in 10% increments, but I don't know if that's default or not.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
if it disconnects itself from the ac adapter, then you have a faulty phone.

Hello everyone! I'm using the Droid2 Global by Verizon. I'm on the stock ROM with system version 2.4.330. I did installed lots of apps and games. But in the last 5 days, I can't access my Setting -> Accounts. When I press the Accounts it said: "Sorry! The application Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."

So what happened to my phone? And how to solve this problem?

Very much appriciate!
[Droid 2 Global Themes and Apps] orkillakilla:
Hm... I'm guessing you've already tried a reboot. I would suggest a factory reset. This will wipe your phone, so I would backup whatever you want to keep.

Settings -> Privacy -> Factory Reset
[Droid 2 Global Themes and Apps] Asphyx:
If you haven't tried a battery pull first then do what was suggested above.
[Droid 2 Global Themes and Apps] b3kool:
@orkillakilla: I'll try a factory reset. Before that I'll backup everything using the Titanium Backup or using the Backup in Recovery?
[Droid 2 Global Themes and Apps] orkillakilla:
Use Titanium. If you back up in recovery and the reset fixes the problem, then when you restore you will still have the same problem.
[Droid 2 Global Themes and Apps] b3kool:
Thank you, I have reset and when the phone boot up, it stop at Setup screen. Nothing there but a black screen. Then I have to flash sbf it and now it works fine. Have to find and install a lot of apps.

I have one question though, can we install this and delete the stock gallery? Will that interfere with anything? Cuz I don't use the stock camera or gallery. Camera360 and QuickPic are what i'm using for my photos.

Hi, can QuickPic totally replace the Gallery?

I don't understand how more people are not frustrated by the fact that picture can't be renamed after taking a shot..?

I would like to be able to rename the pictures as soon sa I take them, and from stock camera I can see the picture taken, but I can't rename it. Can QuickPic be accessed from camera (review of pic - right bottom corner)?

Thanks, Cheers,

Nenad
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] hitekredneck:
I do know that after installing QuickPic, I went into File Explorer and navigated to my DCIM folder where my pics are stored and clicked on a .jpg file, then the box popped up asking me which app I wanted to open the file in, Gallery or QuickPic. I set the check mark to "Always use this selection" and then tapped on QuickPic and made it the default .jpg viewer. You will need to do this for each graphics format type; .png, .tif, etc.

I do not know about the camera preview because I am running CM7 at the moment on my tablet. Anyone whom has used CM7 knows the downfall of the camera quality and I try to steer clear of even using the camera with this rom.

You can do as I have stated above, setting the file associations, and see what your camera app uses for the preview when you take a pic with your tablet. Then report back to us and let us know if this, in fact, does actually replace the default preview app for photos from the camera app.

[EDIT] I have just confirmed that if you install QuickPic, when you take a shot with your camera app and tap on the preview selection, it does give you the option of setting QuickPic as the default preview app from the camera.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] p0peye:
Nope.

I made a QuickPic a default app to preview Jpegs (and other formats), but the problem is stil there:

From Camera app, when I hit a "image viewer" button, it opens a Galery-like 1 picture screen (on back, the Camera app is shown for taking more pictures).

Is there a way to tweak Android to use QuickPic instead (like "Registry" in Win?)

Cheers

Loving this app
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] ketjr81:
Great app, I've been using it for a while. Was really happy when I found it, the stock Gallery appy is garbage compared to this app.

[G Tablet Themes and Apps] p0peye:
I was using Serendipity 6.3 and now Darky 10.1 rom, and I never got the option to choose - it always shows the preview in stock gallery... :( Can I remove the it (the stock gallery)?

BTW - I just left a "review" at "App Brain":

The best gallery app (IMHO)! Let me put out the facts others didn't: I just love the "rename" option - one can take a look at the picture, and directly rename it if you want (when the picture is in full screen. It would be nice though if one could do the same from a thumbnail preview - with a long press menu - the option lacks there...). One more minor issue makes me have another picture viewer installed: - if you open a hidden (.name) picture from a folder that has more then one hidden pics, it will show this one, but will not show any oteher by sliding, as would for non-hidden pics. It would be nice to have an option "show/ hidden files", and if the option is on, it would show all the hidden pics, and if it is off, it would show none. If this issue was not present, I would have had just QuickPic installed of all the pic viewers! Once again - thanks for the best gallery app - please make it even better!
