Fast GPS Locking Trick

When I loaded up 2.2.. GPS wouldn't lock.. so I downloaded GPS status from the market and did the configuring trick.and that seemed to fix it.. BUT.. it still was taking a bit extra time to lock.

what I figured is that in root explorer.. copy the entire gps.conf from a working Froyo or Gingerbread rom (they both have the exact same gps file).. and replace it over the stock gps.conf. for those of you who don't know.. you can find the gps.conf file under /system/etc

gps locking is almost instant now.:)

You might wanna do this for future releases Liquid.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] yakitori2:
It may but the market will be the old one.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] schwab16:
Wow just installed 2.3 and I have to say this is by far the fastest butter smooth rom for thunderbolt! Thanks for all ur work liquid.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kriskmk:
yea.. back in the theme thread.. like I said.. we should wait for you to update the theme because of new apks in 2.3. I like stock market anyway..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kriskmk:
Battery life is good.. but I think not as good as what you'd expect from AOSP.. I am thinking it's because of the Kernel....

has anyone tried this with other kernels and experienced better battery?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] scottyd21:
Great rom, very fast...

Though i have ran into an issue. Any apps i install i get an error "Package file is invalid". anyone else see this?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jasonbiggs:
Haven't desired to try since it is so good now but anything better is, well, better.

Did a 2.3 flash from 2.2 without deleting data and then re-applying Yak's theme and all seems to be working smooth as before.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] icanhazdroid:
Best AOSP rom I've ever used. Please keep updating this :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jasonbiggs:
Just istalled two browsers fine. Maybe re-flash or fix perms?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] caspersfi:
Great work Liquid... love this ROM but I'm having MMS issues. I keep getting "invalid destination address" anyone else having this problem?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] DeTard:
Very odd. Maybe I'll SS it next time I see it. For the time being though, it's working so not touching anything.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rafaelvelasquez2:
How is Netflix on here? Does it play as good as the sense roms or is it all choppy and have audio and frame rate issues like in cm7? If u been on cm7 u know what I'm talking about.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] GreginNH:
Thank you, I missed that.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kriskmk:
Remember, Yak's theme file will replace some of the apks from 2.3 built.. back to 2.2.. so a few of the apps you have right now are older.

When Yak is done porting over 2.3.. make sure you flash that instead to get the full benefits of 2.3.. or.. you can flash over 2.3 again just to get back to the actual 2.3
[Thunderbolt Android Development] stuckhere4ever:
I am still testing on 2.3, but while I was on 2.2, I was getting similar battery life to CM7. I've found that generally leankernel (which he has included), seems to be doing the best for me, but it might be worthwhile to try out KangBang as well. Again, while on CM7 I was getting killer battery with it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mperson007:
Getting better battery life on CM7 with leankernal or KangBang?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Ultrastigi:
I'm on dream kernal (running gingerth3ory) I was wondering if its ok to flash this (make backup and wipe everything).

Just dont want to harm my phone since I won't be near a comp till tonite.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] devsql:
I have [had] a weird issue on 2.3: when the phone screen is off and I press the power button, nothing happens for a long time, then the unlock pattern flashes for a moment and the screen shuts off again. And this repeats many-many times, verrrry frustrating!

I tried all settings I can think of: I disabled locking, disabled/enabled animations/timeouts, I reflashed v2.3 with full wipe (did not wipe first time). No success. I am back on v2.2 now, which I love.

On battery life:

I ran CM7 rc1.2 for a couple of days, wiped battery stats before installing it. Battery widget routinely displayed 500-850mA usage with 3g on, 200-400mA in airplane mode. Battery life was 4-7 hours...

On Liquid ROM 2.2 I now see 35-45mA in airplane mode, 250-350mA usage on 3g. Much better! The phone is off charger since 7am, still 85% at 3pm.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] supermandroid:
I've had the same thing happen to me with the lockscreen. I did a full wipe. I'm going to try to switch the kernels to see if that helps.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] rafaelvelasquez2:
Dammit. I flashed this and got it all setup just to find out Netflix acts the same way on here as cm7. It looks good, plays ok, but during fast moving scenes or camera pans, it looks very choppy like the frame rate is off. The sense roms don't do this. The sense roms play Netflix perfect. Why is it off in ALL aosp based roms?

*using blankets for parachutes*
[Thunderbolt Android Development] devsql:
Hmmm, full wipe and clean reinstall did not help me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] fatboy97:
You say full wipe... did you also clear cache and Dalvik cache also before you reinstalled???
[Thunderbolt Android Development] devsql:
Let me clarify. First time I did Dalvik and cache wipe only. Second time I formatted cache and system, then did a 'full wipe' in recovery, wiped Davlik and only then flashed 2.3 again.

All my settings and apps were preserved in the first upgrade way, I got plain and empty phone in the second attempt.

But in both cases I had that issue - I had to repeat power button pressing for 10-15 times before I could unlock the phone...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kriskmk:
I've had this problem too. I switched to KangBang Kernel since I hear it gives better battery life.

so far unlocking is not a problem.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] n0thing2bdone:
thanks for the stats. i'm at around 150mA on cm7 with mp3 playing, 3g on, stock kernel, ondemand.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] supermandroid:
I just put the AOSP dreamkernel on, so far the phone will unlock, but it flashes to the homescreen for a split second before going to the lock screen. An improvement, but still a nuisance. KangBang is good though?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kriskmk:
no problems so far.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] fatboy97:
Interesting, but I'm not sure if you are doing it in the correct way... the way I do it is by using ROM Manager to go into Recovery... backup.... next, "wipe data/factory reset"... "wipe cache partition"... in advanced "Wipe Dalvik Cache"... finally, "install zip from sdcard", find the zip file and install it.

Yes, this will give you a totally wiped device, but I think you need that to see if the ROM loads correctly and doesn't mess up anything.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] stuckhere4ever:
My battery stats look like this:

Stock - (6 hours moderate use)

CM7 - Stock Kernel (10+ hours moderate use)

CM7 - LeanKernal (20+ hours moderate use) - 5-6% drain overnight.

CM7 - KangBang (20+ hourse moderate use) - Less than 1% drain overnight.

LTB 2.2 - LeanKernal (25+ hours moderate use) - Less than 1% drain overnight.

LTB 2.3 - LeanKernel (so far) 60% remaining after 9 hours of moderate-heavy use (I've reboot 3 or 4 times today which seems to take the most battery out).

All of these numbers were overclocked to 1.4ghz.

Right now, my current output is just under 100mA with the screen on, and about 40mA with the screen off.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] supermandroid:
I do everything you mentioned (except the Dalvik Cache) every time I load a ROM, and I still had the screen on error.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kriskmk:
are you using smartass governors on all or something else?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nate51:
Ah I feel like that annoying kid always asking questions.

I am using Oxygen 2.1.6 and noticed my battery draining more than before. It's draining at 2.5% to 3% every hour in standby/mild use.

I checked over what is using the battery and it's line up is this...

- On battery (12h 32min)

- Voice Calls - 47% (Time on 24min)

- Display - 24% (Time on 25min)

- Cell Standby - 15% (Time on 12h 29min)

- Phone Idle - 13% (12h 3min)

- Android System - 2%

Now correct me if I am wrong but having the phone on battery for 12h and 32min and voice calls at 24min and killing 47% of the battery doesn't seem right does it?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davebugyi:
Indeed - that's just too much.

Try to upgrade to the latest oxygen (2.1.6) - with a full wipe.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nate51:
Shoot sorry, my mistake, wrote the topic while tired. I am actually on the 2.1.6 not 2.1.4 my mistake, and I did perform a full wipe.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
Check background apps.

Swyped from Oxygen
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjdoctor:
You are lucky to have so much battery timing..

I use Insert Coin 1.08 Stable and I get 14-164hrs with minimum use.. enough to work whole day..

My Display consumes 60% of battery though its set to 20% birghtness all the time...

Should i consider that as a battery prob too?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erklat:
Yes.

10char
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nate51:
I have been looking into it and a lot of people are claiming that 2% per hour is normal. I saw one person stating that 0.5% per hour is normal, not sure how they pulled that off. But I stopped sync on my Gmail and backup information to Google, so I am at roughly 2% per hour and I turn my phone off at night, I am looking at and average of 48 hours on a single charge, I am starting to think that is not too bad.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatDrOiD:
2%/h is okay.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pitsensas:
Yep, +1 :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derlotse:
I assume that you have little battery left after these 12h:32min (how much?) and the above stated does not show the "standby/mild use" - otherwise my next comments make not much sense:

I'd also say 2.5-3% per hour is fine - that means 40 to 50 hours or 1 2/3 to 2 days which is not great but okay.

On the other hand 47 % fro 24 min call is much too much - i'd try an other radio.

The display consumption can probably decreased a lot by reducing display brightness to <50%.

If the above would be you mild use, than you would still have (100%-3%*12h=)64% which I think is okay!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nate51:
Not to bring this thread back to life when it might be considered closed, but I have recently flashed my hboot with AlphaRev turning S-OFF and re-partitioning my internal drive with the Oxygen R2 set up and my battery is now draining at 1.4% per hour. I pulled back a lot of my apps back to the internal space vs. the SD card and I am assuming that is making a huge difference (under very mild use on the WiFi for maybe 30 minutes and no calls, screen off). So for those wondering about battery drain, your apps might be causing it if they are running of the SD Card.

Gtalk video on bamf rc 4? Anyone know how to enable
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctinsley:
Google talk with video doesn't work correctly on any sense ROM including BAMF 3.0 rc4 its the reason its not included. If you must have Google talk with video an asop ROM like cm7 is your only option. The latest talk apk can be installed on BAMF but even if you get that far it still won't work properly, the party you video chat with will either see a black screen(dependant on libs) or will see your image always rotated 90 degrees with no fix available at this time.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ViperZ28:
This is so frustrating, I can't run NFL Mobile on CM7 only BAMF and GTalk video will only work on CM7 and not BAMF. I wish someone could figure out what the deal is between these ROMS and get these things fixed.
[Motorola Droid X2] KurioHonoo:
is anyone else having to deal with low In-Call volume? sometimes when i talk on the phone whether it be on speaker or off it just sounds really low, is there anything i can do about it?
[Motorola Droid X2] bulldogg9279:
yea mine is not loud enough. and speaker phone is pretty much useless.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] whizabz:
Hi,

Coz of water-damage my power button now works randomly. It can be used to lock the screen, but it doesn't work every time.

I am not able to bring up the "Phone Options" menu (the one which has the Power Off option n all).

I have found alternative app options to lock the screen (Screen Off Utils), What I am looking for now is an

app alternative to bring up the "Phone Options" menu

:confused:

Please YELP!!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] 4silvertooth:
Search market for soft keys.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] whizabz:
Found 'em

Thanks man! That helped.

Found "Softkeys", "Button Savior" and "NOOKcolor Power Button". Trying 'em out now.

Thnx :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] whizabz:
Ok...Not what I wanted :-(

Hi,

So...those tools did only a part of what I wanted. I am actually looking for anything that can bring up the "Phone Options" menu. :( The one you get when you

long-press the power button

None of the above did that. :confused: So...still need help!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Dr.Alani:
Try spareparts and spareparts plus from the market.

And get a coaster for your cup.lol

Edit: look for a paid app called "Reboot Control Widget"

Sorry, I did not get your problem at first.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] doktornotor:
Uh, there are tons of widgets to toggle airplane mode, sound and various reboots.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] whizabz:
Thanks. That gave me the "Power Off" option I was looking for. So 99% of my prob is solved. But still if there is something that could trigger the "Phone Menu" thing, would be a great help.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] t3tr1s:
widgetsoid has some options, but i'm not sure about this "phone menu". first time you said it i thought you meant the 3845#*500# code
[Optimus One, P500, V General] whizabz:
The Phone Options Menu

This is the Menu I am talking about. Is anything that can trigger this menu?

A command that can be saved as an icon on the home screen?

Anything of the sorts. :confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] 4silvertooth:
I think you should look at softkeys settings, there was something like long press or something like that.
[Galaxy S II General] nicolasf:
Hey guys. My first hours with the SGS2, and there's something annoying me that I couldn't find anywhere.

I'm getting screen brightness variation depending on the image. On darker images the brightness is higher than on brighter images.

I'm pretty sure this is not auto-brightness. I've tested with manual brightness and the effect is there too. It's almost like if there's not enough power for the screen, and when you have more bright pixels, the screen dims.

Has anyone experienced this?

This is specially annoying when scrolling different content, or even when you are on a predominantly white screen and the swype keyboard shows up, making the white area much brighter.

I'm currently on "Normal" on that stupid screen setting (I have image post-processing). Tried movie too, but still shows this behaviour.

Here are two photos using a Nikon D40 in Manual mode. Exposure has not been changed between both photos. I've put them side-by-side for comparision. Brightness was manually set on the SGS2.

Is there a solution to this? Hopefully it's not a hardware problem :(.

Hmm, can't post image links... Can someone please post them?

EDIT: FOUND THE ANSWER MYSELF

There's a configuration for Energy Automatic Adjustment (don't know if this is the right text as my phone is in Portuguese). Disable that damn thing :).

Is the radio stock, or modified?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] liquid0624:
Thanks bro greatly appreciated make sure you check out LTB
[Thunderbolt Android Development] icanhazdroid:
Could we get a patch for the paginated app drawer back?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] altimax98:
LTB?

will this run the themes listed on your link to XDA CM7 Themes section?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] liquid0624:
Yes and im sure there is a link to a paginated drawer somewhere in tbolt on xda
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Forgetfull:
Yay I've found liquid has been the most bug free.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] icanhazdroid:
There was one in the virus forums but it was for the kingdom rosie, not the shooter
[Thunderbolt Android Development] revolt1:

[Thunderbolt Android Development] 2k10MBC300SPT:
Damn you Liq, I just finished installing, setting up CM7 accordingly and now you're knocking on my TB door w/your spectacular work..You used to Lace up my OG droid (Stayed on Liq Roms) and now you're harassing my TB:) Will donate to you soon as well. real quick, Does VVM and Netflix have any issues here??
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ccc1970:
i like to try different roms but i will admit im usually pretty loyal to Bamf roms. but i remember using liquid roms with my OG droid and i loved them so i figured i would give it a try.

this is a GREAT rom. im very impressed. everything is so smooth and fast. props to the liquid devs for the best GB rom ive tried yet on my TB
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bendystrawboy:

Anybody getting crappy 4G and gps locking? I running mr2 radio and was thinking of going to 2.5, but am hesitant....Two questions: 1. Can I run mr2.5 with this rom? and 2. what radios are you all running with?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] grynn15:
Do a search on the market for "speechsynthesis ENG-USA". Install that and you should be good to go.

My front camera is upside-down and occasionally sideways but it works perfectly fine in Skype. I haven't found a workaround for that.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bendystrawboy:
My front camera is fine on this one as well...odd.

Do you folks wipe system/dav/and,factory, reset?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] boynas:
Select a Wireless network everytime i open an app

Any way to get rid of the stupid message:

"Select a wi-fi network if you would prefer to run the app over wi-fi"

Everytime I open a network centric app, the phone will try to force me to connect to WI-FI.

This might be a feature, but in a world of unlimited data and such, I don't think is a good idea to have that extra step everytime you open 80% of the apps.

I tried hitting menu for "advanced settings" in the wireless settings in network settings, and there is something that says: "Never auto turn on Wi-Fi" but even with that option enabled it still bugs me everytime!

Any ideas?

Update to the new radio that Chingy leaked from new GB. Wow do I get great service now. Search for it it cant be posted here.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ThunderRootedDragon:
Flashed the latest and the greatest radio, still no luck...can't get a lock on gps -- it puts me in NJ and I'm in NYC and continues to search for gps...any advice on the gps signal?

Wiped clean as a baby's bottom when doing the install and only reinstalled apps off the market not with TI backup...do you think it would help to reflash LGS 1.6? b/c I'm considering just going back to 1.4 which seemed to work out for me.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] jbh00jh:
Finally rooted my phone yesterday with the Revolitionary 0.4 pre tool.

Flashed 1.6 today and it seems to be working great . No GPS locking problems ,locks in about 5 seconds.

No lags or FCs yet and I really like the new message and email apps.

Really like the rom , did a good job with it.

Sent from my LTE 4G Thunderbolt
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ThunderRootedDragon:
Flashed back to the .627...gps seems to have fixed itself...I don't think it was the radio though -- for some odd reason I don't get a lock when sitting on my ass at home or work :-/...lol, but once I'm on the move, with wifi on, I get a lock in minutes...works for me!!! I might flash back to the newer radio to see if I get a better signal, in general.
