All we really want is the radio anyways haha.
[Thunderbolt General] PhillyCheez:
says nothing about GPS being fixed....
[Thunderbolt General] Mustang302LX:
When was GPS broken?
[Thunderbolt General] dms76:
Well you have a point! :) BAMF GB is good, but still has some weirdness to it. One of these days I'll get around to trying 1.8.6
[Thunderbolt General] sithdroid2187:
I've seen few reports of taking a long time to lock on to satellites, but even GPS devices like TOM TOM has these problems.
[Thunderbolt General] Mustang302LX:
CM7 or bust! :)
[Thunderbolt General] PhillyCheez:
seriously? the GPS on the tbolt is a complete fail and it's a software issue. Using a third party GPS app to "fix" it that worked the first few times and now it locks in minutes (or till i just give up) rather than a couple seconds.

Sorry. I guess i was just spoiled being on the Dinc that locked instantly every single time.

But since you question it, i am jealous yours works.
[Thunderbolt General] oldnavyguy:
I know it usually doesn't mean much but all day I've been getting the Service Unavailable error when checking for any updates :-)
[Thunderbolt General] jgalan14:
Looks like update is do soon to me :D
[Thunderbolt General] dms76:
Sense fan, but yes I agree CM7 ran well on my DINC. Ok I think we might be getting off topic and going to get flamed! TTYL
[Thunderbolt General] crazed_z06:
Mine takes 3 minutes to get a fix. I did a factory reset last week and that fixed it for a few days.. it was getting a fix within 3 seconds. Now it's back to 3 minutes.

This phone broke my heart.
[Thunderbolt General] mariol90:
mine is the same, it worked fine when i was on GB, but with every froyo rom and whatever else i've tried, it always had issues.
[Thunderbolt General] idahonld:
So if I accept and apply this update tonight, will the root process change at all? New files need to be downloaded, or anything like that? (I'm not presently rooted, but THIS close to doing it) .
[Thunderbolt General] altimax98:
OMG.... The NY times in the bookmarks... I've been waiting for so long for this
[Thunderbolt General] sc4fpse:
1. Never accept OTAs if you're rooted. Most of the time your recovery will block it, but never accept them anyways if prompted.

2. If you plan on rooting in the future, don't accept them until devs tell you otherwise. Security-wise, it's the responsibility of the manufacturers to plug any holes devs use for root access. Until one of them says existing exploits still work, RUN, don't walk, away from the OTA.
[Thunderbolt General] PhillyCheez:
I saw that and just shook my head in shame. Ny times must have spent some good money for that.

[Thunderbolt General] altimax98:
If we accidently accept the update, does it just make a update.zip file like on the OG?
[Thunderbolt General] fixxxer2008:
all i want is the updated radio... will it work on the gingerbread roms?
[Thunderbolt General] PhillyCheez:
it's been 10 minutes... anybody flash this yet?

:p
[Thunderbolt General] nrfitchett4:
the official update doesn't wipe your device does it???
[Thunderbolt General] Schedonnardus:
from my understanding, the official update shouldn't, the leak will, b/c its an image of an updated OS
[Thunderbolt General] H3Dude:
The OTA official won't wipe, but this file update on androidpolice will.
[Thunderbolt General] nrfitchett4:
cool, thanks. downloaded it for file purposes.

Going to add a thunderbolt file to my mediafire acct, will add things like this there in case others need it. Not to mention any radios available, etc.

This will be clickable through my sig.
[Thunderbolt General] jcnyc:

Yea, that's the first thing I tried. Had it re-download A-GPS data and everything.. no dice. If the update tonight doesnt fix it, it looks Ill be calling Verizon for a fourth TB.. sucks cause this one has a $20 screen protector on it.

[Thunderbolt General] PhillyCheez:
I'm a believer too... So far Verizon and HTC killed it.

I uninstalled the GPS app and GPS locks instantly or in a couple seconds now.

Better battery life as well.

This phone is no doubt the best phone on Verizon now.

Bravo

I wish I could remember my old XDA account details - I used to post quite often.

Anyway - here I am, back with HTC, and back on XDA - surprise... I got my Sensation on 3UK (Hutchinson3G) - it's branded... a bit, but as most will agree it's a pretty good phone.

eMMC-boot

Jun 2 2011,22:31:39

Pretty standard stuff methinks. HOWEVER...

When I hit Bootloader, I don't just get it looking for PG58IMG.ZIP... it looks for a number of files... one in particular it looks for is - and I think this maybe different, as searching hasn't shown anything: PG58DIAG.ZIP - and also, .NBH etc.

Fastboot stuff comes up with INFOsecure_flag: 3 - normal for an S-ON unit... but if this one IS any different, I'd be happy to try anything needed.

It might have been a while since I've been 'involved', but I'm happy to proverbially get my hands dirty, if anyone wants me to try anything - I can adb and fastboot etc... just let me know.

Cheers all :)

Hi.. I am looking for a method to disable the Power button menu when the phone is locked. I also don't mind if the solution disables it permanently.

I was interested in this thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=811532

But couldn't find more info on disabling the power button menu in that thread. Since I am new I can't post my question in that thread.. :-(

I am ok with a similar solution as in one which involves editing the dex/odex files. Even though I am not a developer I know my way around that.

I am using Nexus S with CyanogenMod 7.0.3

[General Questions and Answers] johnsoceanreefs:
Hi everyone!

For some time now I have been researching on how to make my GPS on my phone (Samsung Vibrant T959 Froyo 2.2) work the way it should. I have tried everything with failure until a few months ago.

I wanted to share my success with you. I know this GPS bug has been a thorn on everyone's side.

I do hope this works for everyone who trys it. If you have my phone it should. Good luck.

As of today I finally found a rock solid configuration that actually works and I would not be posting my findings on this website if it was not a solid fix.

It does involve going into the phones GPS settings. You will only need to do this once. I have tested this only on my Samsung Vibrant (T959) for over 2 months. As of today I still receive 12 satellites with 5 to 7 fixes. For the first fix ranges from 1 second to a Max of 15 seconds. Accuracy ranges from 10 feet to 37 feet. Remember, this is inside my home and not outside. Outside is even better of course.

If everyone who trys this please post your findings along with your cell phone info. This way anyone who reads this can possablity benefit from it.

GPS FIX For Samsung Vibrant Galaxy S (T959):

Please follow to the letter.

Update your phone to froyo 2.2 if you can. I don't think its necessary.

Go to your dialer and enter

this line below

*#*#3214789650#*#*

You should now see your phones

menu(lbstestmode).

Select - Application Settings.

Check each setting and match

To what you see below.

Session Type = Tracking

Test Mode = S/W Test*Operation Session Mode = M S Based

Start Mode = Hot Start

GPS Plus = On

Dynamic Accuracy = On*

Accuracy = 100*

GPS Logging = Off

Go back once. This will bring you back to the main menu.

Now SELECT SUPL/CP

Match what you see here to the

settings you see on your phone.

Server FQDN Type

= Custom Configuration

Server = supl.google.com

Server Port = 7275

Secure Socket = On*

AGPS Mode = SUPL

Now go back until you see your dialer or home screen.

REBOOT YOUR PHONE!

Go into the Android Market and Search for Samsung GPS Restore.

Download and Install GpsRestore.

Now search for GPS Doctor. You will need to purchase this. If it does not work for you, you can get a refund as long as you quickly do the refund. I used the purchased one which I know works.

Once you install both apps run GPS Doctor first! This must be run first. Run this first then select manual fix. Do all three options first. Then select advanced operations and run each one. You should only need to run this once. Close out gpsdoctor.

Now run GPSRestore. Once you get all green, then your done.

REBOOT

Then

REBOOT AGAIN!"

Check out your GPS useing any or your GPS apps.

I hope this works for you. If you have a question you can email me.

BTW I do not own any of these programs or promote them.

[General Questions and Answers] kawika:
What about if GB 2.3 or higher? Do you think it'll werk or only on FROYO
[General Questions and Answers] johnsoceanreefs:
Hi, I really can't say for sure. I Can only tell you it works on my phone. You can try it but copy over your GPS settings so you can go back to what you had. I don't think any of the apps I listed will harm your phone but make sure you do a backup.

It was a 100% improvement on my Samsung Vibrant. Hope this helps

I use the wireless tether 3.1 and after a couple minutes i get booted off. My settings are fascinate on first drop down which is what everyone said it should be and the second dropdown i had it set on master and auto but neither seem to help. Any ideas or solutions. I thought about trying opengarden but its a adhoc only, but if you dont get booted on it maybe thats a solution.
[Verizon Droid Charge] piperat:
I *thought* found my own solution. It lasted for a while then started doing it again.

Restart your phone? 420, hell yeahhh. If that doesnt work, id use history cleaner and wipe your cache. Or boot into recovery, if THAT doesnt work. Id do a wipe.

Lmao, sounds good man. Let me know.

Open garden is adhoc only. Certain devices wont run on that. I need to be able to set up an infrastructure. V3.1 offers that but is not reliable. There are other ones too but my phone says that there is not enough space. The wierd part is that i have way plenty of space. Thats where im at now.

I have 3.1 working fine on the ep1f leak. Here are my settings. Profile Fascinate, Method Softap for samsung. changed the channel to 4 or 5 your choice really. If there is a wireless router nearby on channel 1(which most are factory set at) you will get interference. Also try this I had to do it on my wife's phone. Uninstall wt reboot then reintall. Let the phone get completely up(media scanning and everything). Then try and run wt again. I've gotten 3.1 to work on a bunch of phones. Hoope that helps.
[Verizon Droid Charge] AnalyzeFaith:
Hey man, sorry to hear nothings worked out... Sad to say but why dont you try to mount your SD card, make a new folder on your desktop and back up everything on your SD. Go under my computer, right click the disk and format it. Do an odin restore to ED1, keep it stock. Let it update to EE4, then flash an EE4 Odin rom that gives you root, such as this one. http://www.androphiles.com/files/android/EE4deodx_DXC.tar.rar then your kernel and rom. I mean, I know you probably dont want to hear this kind of answer but if nothing else has worked then this might be your only option. As for getting infastructure working, I saw a thread on it. Ill post it once I find it. PM if it worked.

Edit: I link that I found says to download the newest tether, which obviously you are having problems with... So give it a try again after you do a full wipe.

Error device offline

It only says this on one computer. The rest are fine. What do I do? I've already installed the drivers.
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
It is most likely a confliction from a program on your computer, such as easy.tether, pdanet, doubletwist, HTC sync, or anti virus. I get device offline if something is interfering with the phone when trying to use adb.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jon.StatiK:
I'm getting the same error running Win7 64bit. Tried installing HTC Sync, uninstalling it, disabling antivirus, and using the "auto-detect" windows drivers. I'm not sure what else to try. Any ideas?
[HTC EVO 3D] Jon.StatiK:
Fixed the problem. For those of us with newer motherboards you may want to make sure you have your phone connected to a USB 2.0 and not 3.0. 3.0 will cause it to become unstable and crash your pc. Moved it to a 2.0 slot and it worked perfectly, go figure.

[Off-topic] boborone:
There's a penetration testing thread in the tp2 forum that works for many HTC winmo phones that I've been playing around with on my fuze.

I'm still pissed that it got made a legacy device when it did. At the time, there were at a page of new posts everyday added to the dev section. And they weren't noobs asking stupid questions in dev either. On top of that you had the moto backflip and other crap which had no dev support period being added every other week.

From a chef, what do you think would be cool to do to a non daily driver touch pro? I can't bring myself to put that thing down.
[Off-topic] boborone:
YEEEEESSSSSSSSS! Oh I miss digging through the manila files.

Tweak here, tweak there. Change value to this, change to that.
[Off-topic] madnish30:
I too have the good ole TP ( Fuze ) Will never give it away - and yes me too way very emotionally attached to Fuze dev section - but sadly we had most of the ROMs discontinued - I discontinued mine also ( for public ).

I think only NRGZ cooks regularly for Fuze, TAEL, JMC etc etc all were discontinued or were no longer supported. Hence, it makes sense to send it to legacy devices - and hey it's not that legacy devices sections are not accessible just a click away.

Well I just play with my Fuze cook a new ROM once a while - just use it for a couple of hours in a week - if I;m feeling nostalgic - I just use it for a day or two.

Won't sell it as it will fetch me pennies compared to what I bought it for.

And I agree, some devices have disappointed as hardly anyone develops for them - but now we are much more careful about what we add and what we don't.
[Off-topic] madnish30:
Oh yes ! And that epic BUILDs thread by Da_G - good ole days - I was one of the dev team members who ported manila2.1 and manila2.5 to VGA resolutions :)

In those days HD2 was new and our device ran manila made for HD2 perfectly - and it was one of the best XDA moments for me :)
