Thank you for the tip

Gave it a try... no results.

Unfortunately, the data that comes out of the original driver is encrypted. That's why I need a new _driver_ :S
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PuterDuder:
Note that the GPS does work with programs like GPSed, Bing and GoogleMaps.

Check the "Unified Settings" and make sure GPS is turned on there.

Also, check your settings under Start-> Settings-> Personal-> Phone-> CDMA Services-> GPS , make sure you are "Location ON".

And some more...get QuickGPSLite, and put a shortcut to it in your \Windows\StartUp folder.

I just had another idea...I have TomTom working fine on my HTC Ozone (go figure), and I've been using the Fathom to do the navigator.cfg file as the start-up prefs won't work on the Ozone (not enough memory)...maybe the gps dlls from the ozone would work?

Using GpsMod helps once I´m lucky enough to get a fix. Also helps if I only need a rough estimate of my location by using cell tower info instead.

is there a way to play audiobooks on the hd2? i need one that keeps my place after i'm done listening to it, like a bookmark. and return to it exactly where i left off later on.
[HD2 General] 10507:
Try Akimbo Player. It will remembers your last position and last set volume level for each book.

[HD2 General] koolxx:
can i play this player on my htc hd2 stock rom 6.5? please say yes.
[HD2 General] adecostres:
I'd recommend you to try installing Android. You can use SD build, so you are able to use WM6.5 together with Android ROM. After putting android on my HD2 I never looked back. i use special version of mortplayer - written especially for audio books - with bookmarks and sleep timer. I also listen to audible - its player is really better for Android than for WM.

Podcast software is much better too - I use BeyondPod.

On the other hand, you can still use mortplayer for WM (AFAIK there's option "remember last position"). Interface is much uglier than its android counterpart ;)

how can you tell if a hd7 is refurbished...also..without a sim..how can i check is everything is working..im in canada and the phone is from tmobile US

please help me...
[HD7 General] rsacipher:
Sounds like a warranty replacement, usually they make you keep the battery and back of the phone. I don't know what the law says about refurb equipment, I thought they had to put a sticker on the lable near the IMIE but I can't confirm that.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] junooni.1980:
Ok so i dont know if this is a dumb question or maybe it is. but hey Im no expert. Can someone please advise if i was to update the new update or the gingerbread, will i lose my root and unlock cus im using this phone on rogers network & we all know this is a bell phone. Please help.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vancouver_hawk:
you will not lose the unlock but root will be gone. You can root it after you install gingerbread the same easy way you rooted before...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zorxd:
Root wouldn't be a problem as you could re-root again (very easy). If you install a custom gingerbread rom it is probably pre-rooted.

As for the unlock your phone should stay unlocked, I don't think the update mess with your /efs partition.

One problem could be the loss of the 850 MHz band. I don't know if it's better to flash the KC1 modem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] junooni.1980:
See now this freaks me out, cus my biggest pet peave is to root this phone, Im scared to brick it. I use to have a desire andit was so easy just to root and have clockwork onit and install roms but since I bought this phone I havent done ay rom works cus im too scared to brick it. Anyways I guess ill just stay on 2.2, cusi don't wana get into the 850 issue, im on rogers and I dont wann lose the 3g.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Furry Atom:
You are aware it's easier to brick a desire than a Galaxy S right?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ramrod54:
Note!

I have has my Galaxy S sence Dec and flashed the hell out of it without any problems. Thought I bricked it a few times but perhapes I'm lucky?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Furry Atom:
Soft brick =/= actual brick. A bricked phone would be past the point of using odin to restore.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] zorxd:
The SGS is probably the easiest phone to root. Just install a custom pre-rooted kernel trough odin/heimdall. No risk as you can flash back your old kernel the same way.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dpvu:
You are more likely to brick your phone flashing the phone with GB than rooting it once you have GB. That being said, the risk is very low. Follow directions and you'll be fine. I'm on an i9000m and unlocked it and have been running JVK for about a week with the KC1 modem and LOVE it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
Ok guys the Galaxy S is one of the most hardest phone to brick out there. Sure a lot of people experience soft brick where you enter a boot loop but download mode still there and you can flash with odin back to stock.

As to 850 Mhz you can enable it on any model firmware with a little trick found here

And as you can see it works I have 850Mhz working on JVK modem wich is the modem from the leaked GB before it was official. I founded it to be more battery friendly than JL2 and as fast if not faster.

p.s. That make me think I need to update my signature :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgsshedden:
Updated to gingerbread today and used docs kitchen and then went back and flashed the kg1 modem and csc files

Works just great so far!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sp991:
Are you talking about KC1 modem, if yes than make a little test and let your phone with anything than phone at off (wi-fi/3G off and nothing open). Check how many percent of you battery you lose per hours during the night and then do the same after upgrading to JVK modem.

Fo me it was half the consumption with JVK compared to KC1 so I decidec to stay on JVK modem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgsshedden:
yes I did mean KC1 modem: initially installed the JVK but couldn't get the 850 activated -- can you remind me how please. Know it is a simple fix but didn't have the instructions with me when I did the install so flashed KC1 to ensure I had service.

Will let you know how the battery drains today on KC1 before I play around and swap so we can save others the experimentation: appreciate your help, thanks.

Hey, just flashed JVB with JL2 modem. If I go into the *#2263# and if under combi bands 850 has a * beside it...does that mean I have the 850 band still?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] JJustin:
Just curious if you've compared the two modems in a low reception area? Unfortunately I spend most of the day in a concrete building and found that my reception wasn't as good with JVK compared to KC1 (this was with JVK rom, i've since gone back to 2.2.1 with KC1 modem) :( Would love to have better battery life though!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cmiller82:
I tried Simply Honey 3.1 and found unacceptable battery life. It was the first time I tried the KC1 modem so that may have been to blame.

I flashed Doc's beta JVB ROM, and it seems much better so far.

I wish I had stayed on the froyo ROMs that worked better, but I can't help to be on the bleeding edge.

I'm hoping Darky puts together a JVB ROM soon.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dpvu:
The JL2 modem always had the 850 band enabled by default.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] 420SYN:
Have you tried Criskelo gingerbread? I have decent battery life and he's constantly updating it with the new stuff that comes out.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] n0th1ng:
Just thought I would post a note for people using the i9000m on Rogers. I've updated to JVB with bootloaders, flashed CF root, then the ugjl2 modem.

Everything has been working fine for a couple days now with no reboot issues or force closes. Battery life is good, and the phone is snappy quick!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgsshedden:
the ROM isn't going to influence the battery life near as much as the kernel you are using. True, lots of ROMs have an integrated kernel within the initial installation, but you can change the kernel within just about any custom ROM. I am using Damian's GTO7 kernel and the battery life is excellent, plus the phone just flies. Now you've already jumped from Froyo you might as well play with a couple of options and see if you can't get the performance you are looking for. Hardcore is close to having his GB kernel ready to go, Chainfire's works well and is the base for many popular ROMs and then there are the more specialized kernels, such as GTO7 and others like FuguMod, Voodoo etc. Some are very beginner friendly, others cater to more experienced users, but the Galaxy is very robust and customizable, even (especially?) in GB JVB.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dpvu:
ROM makes a huge difference. The kernel can only go so far in terms of tweaks but none of it matters if you have Android OS using 60% of your battery. The current GB kernels don't actually even have that many features to conserve battery. Using the conservative CPU governor is one but that's about it.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] SWave711:
The second day after I installed JVB, I did get the problems that other people were having with the Android OS being above 60. Since then I have removed SNS and have stopped it through running services. I have also stopped DRM. So far I am getting about 2.25 days on a full battery.

I am on JVB with JL2 modem, chainfire's kernel, goatrip's rom and gingerbread theme.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lgsshedden:
not what I got from reading the development posts nor from the replies posted by the guys who develop the kernels when asked that question.

I am but a user, so I don't know: but when the guys who do develop kernels (versus compile roms) indicate that the kernel and not the rom is a bigger determinant of battery effectiveness, I tend to believe them.

I'm new to Android so please excuse my ignorance >.<

I've tried a few methods; various one click roots via USB, z4root...

Unfortunately I'm on a Mac so I can't get Odin, and I'm having trouble finding a working version of Heimwhatever substitute. I have access to a PC but it's set to Nazi mode and I can't seem to coax the firewall into bypassing anything :|

All of the one click roots did nothing, I kept getting "E:Verification failed!" when I tried to update from SD card.

z4root kept getting stuck in phase1 and crashing.

Am I just being a banana or will my phone just not have it? There's always a way round with these things...

I also tried CF root on the PC and it kept saying my image file was wrong.

Android just hates me :|
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] branalvere:
One click roots don't work on froyo or gingerbread ROMs.

The easiest way to root is to flash one of chainfires speedmod kernels. If you are using heimdall you will also need the pit file (.512 pit).

I use heimdall on ubuntu but have never used a Mac so can't give you any tips on installing it. But that's the way to get rooted.

Maybe download the files to your phone and then transfer by mass storage if the firewall is the problem.

Get heimdall http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sabrinified:
Tried Heimdall too. I can't get it to run properly, it keeps quitting immediately after I open it, despite me installing all the other rubbish I needed to for Mac :|

G tab, running TNT 4.4.0.

I have a 16GB sdcard in the external slot. When I look at the settings, the sdcard2 is shown. If I remove the card and go back to settings and look, I do not see the card. I have removed the card and placed files on it, reinserted the card and can see & access the files on SDCard2.

When I connect the g Tab to my PC, I see SDCard1. I can add files and when I disconnect the g tab, I can use the files.

Here is the problem/question: I have tried using App to SD and other programs in an attempt to move some apps to the SDcard1 or SDCard2. None of the programs work when I try to move an app, each program comes up with an error. I have formatted each SD. Using chmod, I partitioned the SD.

While I was using CHMOD, I did see one strange error when I selected:

no apps2sd partition found.

skipping format of /SD-Ext.
