gps issue

Ive just gotten this sc-02c rooted phone from a friend and am trying to get the gps working

the phone now has cm9-20120923 nightly 120924 223525 on it (v sexy!)

it had a previous nightly from july and didnt even show the gps symbol then

it has the s99fixnttgps_cwm applied into the system/etc/init.d folder via the zip installer

so when i use any mapping software it just constantly searches for gps (the flashing gps symbol) and never gets my location fix and will report poor gps. i have enabled the use internal gps hardware in the android settings menu

my other phone has no issue finding gps in this location and Ive tried it outside to no avail.

does anyone have any ideas of how to get this docomo running for me. even if it is to revert to older kernals/modem driver/rom to guarantee the gps will work for me

this phone is located in australia and GPS is important to me.

regards

chris

You need to use an NTT compatible kernel.

Like siyah or sakuramilk's.

Go figure, my Nexus 7 that I ordered yesterday morning was shipped from Hong Kong last night and is clear of customs and already sitting at a FedEx location in Koto-ku less than 10km from my place but FedEx is not putting it on a truck until tomorrow because they don't want to give me a service level (next-day delivery) that wasn't paid for.

Make sure it is the Galaxy S2 version, Siyah has one for the GS3 too. Also there is an older kernel for gingerbread so the newer versions are only for ICS.
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
I rang FedEx up and told them to hold it at the depot for me to pick up on the way home tonight, its one station before on my regular teiki line.
[Galaxy S II General] zaphod777:
Nice! Looks like mine is on the way but I doubt it will make it to the house tonight since I am out in Kanagawa

I think we should start a new Nexus 7 Japan thread. But, it is the same device and recognizes Japanese.

Already rooted and you guys should check WugFresh's Nexus Root Toolkit or Nexus Root Toolkit 2.0
[Galaxy S II General] zaphod777:
This one is probably going to stay pretty boring and stock since it is going to be my wife's. But I will probably write up a review on the differences between it and the US one.
[Galaxy S II General] SimmoF:
I've found a few bugs in my rom, mostly its with the apps I put in system without extracting the libs first.

Anyhow, I uplaoded a new version based on the latest cm9 nightly. I recommend you install it.

Please wipe the caches after and post any issues you have.

Except for battery drain if you have Google Now installed. LOL.

Also I'd like to know if your using this rom, it will give me drive to keep updating it.
[Galaxy S II General] wendac:
Good idea. Mine will arrive tmr.

Look forward to it.

Done, posting.

I am pretty sure that, other than the Play store issues, it will be the same device.

Lol, thanks for the jab. Google now is actually pretty darn awesome on the S2. Battery drain is not so bad as long as you use Siyah 3.5.2. The best Siyah kernel so far. I am going to install your Rom again soon and then add the older kernel.

Or you could have two ROM's to do it. One with 3.5.2 and Google Now.

Lol dem apples.

SC-02C part replacements

Not sure that is correct, for example the i9100 panel and sc-02c panels are different due to the antenna hence if you need to replace the screen you can't use the panel method but must use the screen replacement approach. Regarding the charging port, the PCBs look very similar but are not identical and I'll let you know if they are inter-changeable as I need to replace mine.
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
The SC-02C external casing is identical to the Korean M250 models. This extends to both the antenna port and the back battery plate.

SC-02C in UK

I plan on using your ROM next month when my warranty is up - looking forward to kissing the stock ICS goodbye, it is an unpleasant beast.

My phone had the SIM unlock done by Docomo as I am taking it to the UK next month. Intend to use a UK Orange pay-as-you-go SIM. Does anyone know if the SC-02C will work ok (3G internet and calling)?
[Galaxy S II General] SimmoF:
That's because I am hosting it on Google Drive.

My shared drive folder is here.

Hey where do you check your nexus 7 shipping status? I can only see from the my account in google play that the deliver date is Sep 27 but until today still no any update
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
You should have gotten an email with a fedex tracking number if it shipped.
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
Installed this new version. Fast Dormancy Toggle doesn't work (says "Your device is not supported").
[Galaxy S II General] wendac:
I haven't got any email regarding to FedEx number. Does it mean my nexus still not be shipped??
[Galaxy S II General] SimmoF:
Thats because you have to select the apn in mobile networks first.

And make sure you are actually connected to it (3G or H status symbol).
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
OK, that would be explained by the fact that its currently got a voice-only roaming sim in it. Always used to turn it on for a new device via dialer code which didn't seem to care.
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
Most likely yes if you didn't order in the first few hours. Mine was ordered under 30 min after the page first appeared.
[Galaxy S II General] SimmoF:
I have updated the rom again, in the new version, I have updated some system apps and put Siyah 3.5.2 NTT mod in there.

Hi guys. i just received a second hand NTT Docomo sc-02c from Japan. it is running on Android version 2.3.3. but when i connect it in any PC or Laptop it can't detect that it is connected in the USB. It is not showing a "USB connected" in its status bar. even when i uncheck USB debugging.. can you hel me guys.. thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] SimmoF:
It uses MTP. Check in "My Computer" it might have an SC-02C device.

You need to switch the phone to USB storage device mode.

Nova Launcher Prime is on sale today for 25yen.

I recommend buying it if you are looking for a fuller featured Stock looking launcher.

Usually its about 300yen. I use Apex but bought it anyway.

See here.
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
So far so good, no silently dropped connections (while maintaining notification bar connection status) when coming out of a subway tube with OMLPL.
[Galaxy S II General] jetaw03:
how can i switch the phone to USB storage device mode? Please note that it also does not show any alerts that i already connected the phone in the pc.. thanks!

i also want to ask if you know any working links for the latest stock rom for sc-02c? or any working links of stock rom higher that 2.3.3 will do. thank you very much!

the one from this link is already dead.. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1113928.. please help me guys ... thanks!
[Galaxy S II General] SimmoF:
I forget where it is in gingerbread. Google it for yourself.

You can download the latest rom using CheckFusDownloader and flash the rom with Odin. There are many guides on xda.
[Galaxy S II General] jetaw03:
i tried it already at home but it always stops and gives me a "CRC failed". i tried it in our office but it seems that it is not working if the internet connection is on proxy server. i think what i need is stock rom uploaded in file hosting site.. ;) anyways just want to ask if your custom rom can be installed directly on android 2.3.3/2.3.6 or do I first need to install a specific stock rom?

Thank you very much for the replies..
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
I installed it over CM10 so stock not essential.
[Galaxy S II General] jetaw03:
so do you mean that it is safe to install the custom rom even if i have android 2.3.3 and my phone will not be bricked granted i followed all the instructions correctly?

another question is, is it safe to install this stock rom SC02COMKL1? this is from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1378964. if i am in a stock rom 2.3.3?
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
No idea. You may have to install signed_cm9-build.prop.zip, not sure if his installer gets around needing it or not.

As far as OMKL1, as long as you install a safe kernel (siyah, sakuramilk or similar) before doing any full-wipe you are safe.
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
Alas, though I'm getting better signal overall with OMLPL vs OMLPG I still sometimes need to cycle airplane mode after coming out of the subway.
[Galaxy S II General] jetaw03:
thanks! but is it ok if i flash OMKL1 via ODIN directly without installing the siyah kernel? or i should first install the kernel before flashing to the stock rom OMKL1?
[Galaxy S II General] DenisGuy:
Hey guys. I still have the same audio issue.

Using the headphones, I only have 5 volume notches.

Also, the top notch is not loud enough.

Using EXTweaks with Siyah helps, but it doesn't solve the problem.

Volume+ or any other similar apps don't work.

I tooled with the max audio values in the service menu, to no avail.

Changing the kernel (other Siyah versions or the CM10 kernel) doesn't change anything.

I have absolutely no idea what the issue is. Clueless.

Can anybody help me identify the source of the problem?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
Installing OMKL1 is safe, the danger is after you install you are at risk if you wipe before you've replaced the kernel with something safe.
[Galaxy S II General] SimmoF:
You can. My ROM updates the system,modem and kernel.
[Galaxy S II General] jetaw03:
so can you give me an advice? what should i do first? install safe kernel then OMKL1 or install OMKL1 then safe kernel?

Hi, does this mean that i should just download your custom rom then i am ready to go? no need to install other stock rom or kernel?
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
Misread the version. OMKL1 is a safe version, but it is not an official released version in any case. OMLPG/OMLPL have potentially unsafe kernels.
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
Finally realized that this was a fast dormancy issue. Disabled it and now I don't have any reconnect issues. Hadn't remembered to redo it after flashing CM10.
[Galaxy S II General] raymondhendrickmt:
hello, Just wondering why my Pocket Data or 3G internet dont work if I enable "portable hotpots". it only enables Hotpot wifi but not 3G internet. Please tell me whats happening? thank you..:D:D
[Galaxy S II General] SimmoF:
Just install Siyah kernel then use MobileOdin to flash the other partitions of stock.

That way you won't write a dodgy kernel and you need not worry.
[Galaxy S II General] jerald197:
is this a dualcore phone?
[Galaxy S II General] evildave_666:
Hardware is identical to the I9100 except for the lack of FM radio and presence of digital TV tuner.

Dual-core 1.2GHz Exynos/Mali 400.

Hey guys, beern reading through all night and tried to flash CM9 (latest nightly), unfortunately, i was stuck on a black screen after flashing the CM9 build.prop file. so had to odin back to stock, i am now stock rooted on ICS 4.0.3 (MLPL).

I'm going to try and give CM9 another shot, however just wanna confirm if CWM works ok using this setup, as im currently on stock kernel, flashed siyah then flashed back to stock based on the instructions i read a few pages back. Will the CWM here work ok? I mean, i wanna backup my current setup before messing around again to save time.

Any replies would help! Thanks!

**Ok now running CM9 with Siyah Kernel 3.3.2.

From stock rooted 4.0.3 (MLPL) I flashed back the Siyah Kernel, then made my backup, then flashed CM9 build.prop, reboot, stuck on black screen, pulled batt, installed CM9, gapps, gps fix, wiped, et voila, everything works! After setting up, i then went back to recover to flash Siyah 3.3.2, and rebooted, no wipes. And it's now all good. Thanks to JMT for the tutorials and all the links.

Will stick with CM9 for now, this feels like a solid build for me, stable, not sure about battery life yet.
[Galaxy S II General] JiroPrinz8:
Guys, has anyone tried voodoo sound/color? I remember using that when i had a captivate before, tunes the colors better imo.
[Galaxy S II General] SimmoF:
Voodoo sound is for galaxy s only because it uses the Wolfson sound chip. Gs2 uses a piece of sh*t cheap Yamaha chipset, and it's not compatible.

---------- Post added at 01:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:32 PM ----------

You should wipe if going from stock to cm9. If you get weirdness and/or force closes then a wipe will fix it.
[Galaxy S II General] JiroPrinz8:
Hmm, not really after the sound, more for the display, SAMOLED is taking its toll on my eyes, :) came from a nitro HD.

Yep wiped everything, and it's blazing right now. Pretty solid, haven't found a bug as yet, if this doesn't change, im sticking to this setup.for a while. Unless something brilliant is up that would make me wanna try cm10.. :P
[Galaxy S II General] JiroPrinz8:
By the way, stupid question as it may seem, but I am in the Philippines, and i was thinking if i could flash a modem that's for my region? Would it have any issues?
[Galaxy S II General] JiroPrinz8:
I experienced some a kind of SOD earlier today, the phone wont wake from a lock, when it did wake, i couldnt unlock via pattern, and when i locked it back, the screen off annimation lagged so much, had to do a battery pull to refresh.. i wonder what caused this.. :confused:
[Galaxy S II General] wendac:
to those who use cm10 on sc02c, after you updated to the latest nightly it cannot work with siyahkernel anymore??

The phone is dead after showing the siyah logo. Any solution?
[Galaxy S II General] yusuf7x:
Use stock cm10 kernel
[Galaxy S II General] watsonmf:
I've noticed the same thing with all cm9 based roms that I have tried, including one that I made myself.

Right now I am using SimmoF's rom and it still does that every 3 or 4 days. Only thing that fixes it is a battery pull.
[Galaxy S II General] JiroPrinz8:
Yeah, hasn't happened again as pf today, only happened once since i started using this rom about 2 days ago..

Btw, that was my next question, i cant find a thread for simmof's rom, would like to try it out, although i would want to know what tweaks are in there, as if the things added are specific for Japan users, it wouldn't be of use to me as i'm in the Philippines.
[Galaxy S II General] wendac:
How you make GPS work with stock kernel??
[Galaxy S II General] watsonmf:
SimmoF can probably explain the full list of tweaks better than I can. Most of the readily apparent ones

have to do with Japan-only features like sp mode mail and area mail alerts.

Google the stock SC02COMLPL it's a stock ICS firmware, it's about 400++MB, use Odin v 1.85 to flash it, put the .tar file in PDA and you should be ok.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infra4800:
question - which is most error free rom that has 2-way recording, ads free, and has current Gingerbread built.

sorry for asking this.. rather than searching, I do not know much, but there isn't a direct thread saying this is all one needs.

I have vodafone australia desire hd, which i updated with new system software update... i know a little bit that to flash a rom i need to downgrade first...

the question is ... all i need is the phone to be adfree and has 2-way recording... that is all i want along with whatever it is right now, with latest update from vodafone/htc.

thanks

The best rom so far with sense surely is Leedroid, its on 2.3.3 currently
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Calway:
I just flashed LeeDroid's latest v3.1.5 rom and 3.1.6 kernel and I must say I'm very impressed.. I previously had a HTC stock 2.3.3 GB rooted rom and there are clear differences in terms of speed and performance
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tamen:
MDJ's kernel (that works with pretty much all sense roms) has the 2WCR patch so if you like look of a ROM but want a different kernel, you can flash MDJ's. For a while I was using it with ARHD (for the 2WCR + higher overclock) but the new OC daemon is too good to not have :P
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fault123:
I was looking for a kernel for 2 way recording. I will try this one. Thanks
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infra4800:
do i have to install rom and then kernal ? i thought maybe rom already had the kernal inside it... correct?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monoloco86:
the rom will contain the leedroid kernal
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ywliu:
I personally tried several roms, and still experimenting new ones. 2-way call recording is vital to me. I think Coredroid and Leedroid are two good options.

Lee and MDJ are two kernels for Sense-based roms. Both of them support 2-way call recording. Now Lee kernel is 3.1.6 and MDJ's Unity is v2.

I personally chose Coredroid for its eye candy. I settle for 6.8 and then flashed with latest lee kernel 3.1.6. 7.0 is too new to me.

Since you just updated your firmware, let's pray it's not 2.37 or higher, or all you can do is just wait...

[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
Is it possible? It would be so bad ass to play some 3D Mario on the EVO 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] najib82:
I dont think it will ever work
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
Yeah I wouldn't plan on ever seeing that.
[HTC EVO 3D] rugedraw:
Great concept, but don't you need two screens to play most games? I'm sure the Evo would have the more than enough processor/GPU power to run an emulator for it, though.
[HTC EVO 3D] rstuckmaier:
Mate it to an og evo via bluetooth and you have your second screen! [/problem]
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
What kind of attitude is that? There were many things that people thought never worked on the EVO. Even HTC said it was impossible to run higher than 30fps and still maintain HDMI output.

The only issue I see is the dual screen thing. But many games I see on the 3DS don't really make much use of the second screen. Usually just displays options or just contains more controls. I am curious if there is way a to bypass this. Maybe it wouldn't be a direct port but something similar?

Sort of off-topic a bit but will developers be creating 3D games specifically for the EVO 3D available on the market?
[HTC EVO 3D] rugedraw:
Hmmmmmmm........that would be pretty gangsta if it could be done. If you could also pair a WiiMote to it, then you'd be golden. If someone does it, I'd be interested.

"If you build it, they will come" immediately comes to mind. lol

Eventually, I think yes.
[HTC EVO 3D] zoglog:
bad idea overall. not sure things would run well, then there's the 2 screens issue and most importantly no dpad + buttons
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
A N64 has dpad + buttons and the emulator works fine on the EVO besides obviously being a little laggy. I think the processor of the EVO 3D can handle the 3DS games. Why do you say that things would not run well?
[HTC EVO 3D] 063_XOBX:
Because the 3ds has a more powerful GPU without having to emulate. The amount of raw processing power it would take to run isn't realistic.
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
I figured if the single-core EVO can run N64 games then the dual core should be able of much greater things. However I do not know much about what kind of processor the 3DS has. I wonder which emulators we might see on the EVO 3D then.
[HTC EVO 3D] Overstew:
Lol, I read an article the other day stating the N64 only has a 100Mhz CPU? The EVO 3D will be 24x that speed, I sure hope N64oid will work good once the update hits.

BTW, there is a nds emulator on market (although it's pretty much 99% broken). It is completely possible to emulate a regular NDS w/ bluetooth wiimote as the controller, but the app shows the screen is portrait, cut horizontally down the middle. It has potential, but I don't think we'll see much compatibility with it anytime soon.
[HTC EVO 3D] sprinttouch666:
3ds has a powerful gpu? i don't think that's right lol. It was originally though to have a tegra 2 but instead runs a PICA200, which I'm pretty sure can't hold a candle to our gpu
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
It isn't about the power differences between the systems, it's about how well one system can emulate the other.

You have to remember that during emulation, you are going to need multiple times more power, because you're still running your original device, with another one on top of it (essentially).

Without a device being tweaked specifically to emulate another, it requires massive amounts more power, not just being on par (or even above) the emulated device.

It would be nice if it could be done, but also as far as I know, there aren't even any 3DS ROMs available yet. It would be great if I could backup my 3DS games, even though I don't play many of them (got Zelda today, and burning through that like it's a rented game).
[HTC EVO 3D] flashstein:
Would be better off porting some of the better(easier to port one screen games etc.) games than getting an emulator to run. I think.
[HTC EVO 3D] ssojyeti2:
There is an experimental one in the market last time I checked.
[HTC EVO 3D] demo27vol1:
The regular NDS emulator runs incredibly slow even playing games like pokemon run slow I can't imagine how the NDS 3d will run. But I'm pretty sure in time we will be able to play games like that. Maybe in 2 years from the way android and phones in general are advancing. The N64 runs smoothly if you over clock it to 1.5 ghz and up.
