I have been having the same problem. Installed FakeGPS but that only fixed the Google Search bar not the News&Weather app. It needs location and there isn't one. Maps etc. has the same problem. Looking for Network-location all the time.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kypen:
Good (and bad) to know that I'm not alone. What's interesting here is that this never happened on my 1.1 rooted Nook. I wonder if the app has changed that significantly since...
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andream2g:
Never happened on mine either. Here is what Gabrialdestruir posted in the Development section:

Known Issues without solutions:

IMEI Force Close -

There is no randomly Generated IMEI in this version. - Apps that close due to lack of IMEI need to be fixed by Developers not users.

Network Location isn't enabled -

Signature Issue again - Work is being done to locate the fix.

Calendar does not sync -

Yet Another Signature Issue - Work is being done to locate the fix.

So do we need a fakeimei app like fakegps? would that even be legal?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] lost1:
Well folks,

I've managed to buy and unlock this beast in under in an hour. Very nice little device. Its an upgraded captivate, silky smooth. The cameras are both great.

I was curious so I started digging and was able to generate the unlock code very similarly to the captivate.

I've attached a little root and unlock pack.

I make no warranties as to the usefulness or that this won't brick your brand new Infuse (I kind of doubt it but whatever)

Let me know if you like it.

This uses the rage against the cage exploit for root access, and I've thrown in the unlock code extraction at the same time. NOTE: The Unlock code is provided at the end of the process. It will complete the root and superuser install and then give you an Unlock code.

I have also added an unlock only mode. It still uses rage against the cage to gain root access, but its only temporary and all utils are removed.

Props go to the guys behind Rage Against The Cage...

Required:

1. adb setup (Included all adb binaries in zip)

2. usb debug mode activated on your phone.

Settings>>Applications>>Development>>USB debugging​

3. Mac, Linux, or Windows.

Instructions:

1. Grab the attached zip file.

2. Unzip

3. For root+unlock

Mac & Linux (Depending on how your system is setup, you should be able to just double-click the shell script and have it work... otherwise)

Open a Terminal window

Navigate to the directory you downloaded the file

Unzip the file if you haven't already

Go into the directory

Type: ./root.sh

Windows

If you don't have the drivers, install Samsung Kies (easiest way)

Unzip file

Go into directory where the unzipped files are

Double-click on root.bat

4. For unlock only

Follow the instructions for root, but use the unlock files instead

To unlock your phone with the provided code, pop in another provider sim card and you'll be prompted on reboot of the phone for the network code.

This is my first root and unlock post, so I hope it helps you all out.

Update 1: Original version

Update 2: I have now added Windows support.

Update 3: Added a pause to the .bat file so that you won't miss the unlock code.

Update 4: Added unlock without persistent root.

Update 5: Provide more detailed instructions

[Samsung Infuse 4G] meiyijun001:
what about XP？
[Samsung Infuse 4G] lost1:
Windows is now supported in V2 of the zip. Just run the included "root.bat" after you unzip the file. The zip has replaced the original in the first post of the thread.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] meiyijun001:
this zip is only for root，what about unlock？

SGS is ok？
[Samsung Infuse 4G] lost1:
It roots and gives you the unlock code.

I don't know if SGS is ok. I didn't try it. I'm guessing that its not since the data file is in a different location and the contents are organized differently then before. Certainly different than my Captivate.

Anyone know where it get the INFUSE Original Kernel?

I got ahead of myself, tried flashing SPeedmod kernel to get past the 3e recovery and now have a brand new phone that won't get past the boot screen.

I just need the image to load using ODIN.

Hehehehe.....oops.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] lost1:
I rooted and unlocked my phone with the script. Since, its hard to post a video showing the unlock since you can only unlock once, would you just like to see a video of the active phone and a sim card swap?

Otherwise, I don't believe I'm going to ask this but...

"Does anyone know how to relock a phone?"

I suppose I can post a video of the rooting process. It will show the unlock code at the end. But since root is not at issue I'm not sure that its worth it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dormorphious:
How do I verify that root worked? Is there a problem if I root on an already rooted phone?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] The Jack of Clubs:
if you see superuser in your apps, youre rooted. if you root an already rooted phone, you just be replacing superuser with superuser, nothing will change.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] tpickel:
is this set of files and procedure compatible with windows vista?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tpickel:
nevermind... superoneclick did the job... you may want to do some more testing with your root.bat on windows vista

the command interpreter for vista hangs on

set %adb%=windows\adb

says file cannot be found

i did verify path and file... should not have been a problem but just wouldnt run

i tried command.com and cmd.exe as well as windows explorer. same result for all three.

i ran it on my windows xp machine and it ran fine except for the unlock code... it said device unavailable??? anyway... not worried about the unlock code i just wanted to get rooted.

thanks for all your hard work.

Hi, I have a rooted infuse and Ive been trying to get the unlock code. I have windows 7 and everytime i run either the root+unlock or just unlock, it doesnt work. I posted a screenshot of what i got.

P.S. I have Kies installed.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Snehanshu:
THANK YOU!!!

Thank you so much for this very simple unlock option.

My wife is travelling to India and we managed to unlock the infuse using this.

It took a couple of hours to get Vista to recognize that the phone is actually connected, and then for it to understand that I have connected the second phone... but finally managed to get working unlock codes for my 2 phones and unlocked both!

A big THANK YOU!!!

i havent looked into how the script is working but if i had to guess, youre having a mount issue. try installing https://market.android.com/details?id=com.beansoft.mount_system and hitting the mount r/w button and retrying.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] perennials:
For anyone having device not found issues, I had that problem too but was able to get it to work, at least in my case. I got a half-day used Samsung Infuse from eBay and am using it on T-mobile. Works great, with voice at least (no data plan).

UCKD5 firmware. Windows XP. I went to google and typed in "samsungmobile infuse" and clicked I'm feeling lucky. It will go to its samsung page. Click support and then usb drivers to download the usb drivers for the infuse. I had some old samsung usb drivers for a previous phone so I uninstalled those first and restarted before installing the new drivers.

Make sure to have it in usb debugging mode. Like the tutorial says, its under applications->development in the settings. Mine had a grayed out checkmark initially, but I went back to it again and it prompted me if I wanted to enable it when I tapped to enter the menu. Alternately you can probably just tap on the gray checkmark and it will light up. Anyway, once it is enabled, you can connect a usb cable to your computer and phone and your phone will enter usb debugging mode. It will say debugging mode on the bar at the top and then show a little usb symbol and a little android symbol next to it. If a menu pops up saying kies/media player/mass storage instead, you didn't enter debugging mode properly so just unplug it and try to enable debugging again.

Then I extracted the zip file from the first post and double clicked root.bat and after 30 seconds I got an unlock code. Make sure to write it down or screengrab it because you might accidentally press a key and end the program. Then I unplugged my phone and restarted it. The unlock code prompt popped up so I entered the code and voila it works! Thanks a bunch! Alternately you can try dialing a number and the prompt will pop up as well.

For those of you who are having the device not found error with the empty unlock code, you need to first UNINSTALL the existing generic samsung drivers (from the generic Kies software installation) inside Add/Remove Programs of control panel. Then go to Samsung website and download the updated driver provided below. After download, run setup to install the new driver. Remember to unplug phone while uninstalling the old driver.

Help on Andriod Infuse Unlock

Hello... if you dont mind could you please note down step by step detail for Window Vista?? Where to move files after downloading... what to type in etc..... I tried following your steps and kept on getting error. Hope so I am not asking for much.

Thank you
[Samsung Infuse 4G] A_youu:
Here are the steps dude:

1) Install the infuse usb driver from samsung website.

2) If you don't have Java JDK then install Java JDK.

3) Don't know necessary or not but I included path for the java into the environment variables. Just go to java bin folder (usually C:\Program Files\Java\jdk (might be with version) \bin .....Copy this path and then click Start...right click on my computer....property...advance tab...there you will see Environment Variable button click it....find for Path variable click edit and paste that Path.......I might be wrong somewhere but if you have any problem in this please google it.

4) Download and Install Android SDK.

5) After installing sdk, If you don't see this directory in your SDK,

launch the SDK and AVD Manager and install "Android SDK Platform-tools"

6) Please also update your PATH environment variable to include the platform-tools/ directory, so you can execute adb from any location.

7) You can test if the adb is included into path correctly or installed correctly by connecting your phone (with USB debugging mode ON) and in cmd prompt do : adb devices....if it shows your phone then you are good to go. if not then please google how to give adb path.

8) Download the folder provided by OP. Unzip it and follow that 3-4 steps provided by OP. If it dont work then try to do the same thing by cmd prompt running as Admin.

Hopefully this will help you. If you have any problems do let us know.

Thanks :)

Will this work on the Canadian Rogers Infuse?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
no, but tommorow there may be a kernel that you can flash with Odin. only a couple people really know what Samsung did with the Rogers version to block the ratc meathod. if root can be aquired without Odin I'm sure there will be something available soon. but there is a chance Rogers customers will need to get used to rooting with Odin packages.

if gtg releases his kernel tomorrow it might root but if not then the infused rom which is pre rooted can be flashed after the kernel is flashed.

if you want root today you can Odin an att rom then update to infused v2 beta but some things are broken and i don't recommend it, it seems if you need to wait a couple days for.root it is well worth it instead of hassling with att firmware and running in circles for.something that is partially functional.
