[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueBagodah:
Greetings!

I'm having a problem with my Camera geotagging. I'm in Newmarket, Ontario, Canada. With GPS on, all my pictures are geotagged as being in Almaty Province, Kazakhstan.

Does anyone else have a problem with bad GeoLocation in pictures? Or even more important, does anyone have a fix?:confused:
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dreddly:
I am having the exact same issue. Almaty as well. Would also be interested in a fix.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
Is the GPS off in nav or other apps such as GPS Status?

What ROM are you running?

Have you tried various location settings? Turn Use wireless networks and/or assisted GPS on/off? I usually use only the GPS with the others off and get accurate locations.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p_razzi:
I have the same, using DJ's 1.9.1 Everything on ... GPS, AGPS, wifi.

I think it's ignoring the negative on the longitudinal coordinate putting me in Kazakstan or such, rather than NY.

The GPS works fine though, so it's either the camera or the album. Has anyone checked exif data?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueBagodah:
I'm running the stock ROM, Rogers version. I've got GPS on, WiFi usually off. I think it's only in the Camera application. Maps and Google Earth locate me fine, and the EXIF data says I'm in Almaty Province. I just tested it and it seems the Camera app is not putting in the minus sign in front of the Longitude.

Take the following coordinates: 43.64552307128906,79.37709045410156

That's where the Camera thinks I am. It's Almaty Province.

When I add a Minus in front of the Longitude: 43.64552307128906,-79.37709045410156

It finds me, in Downtown Toronto!

I'll have to experiment with different camera apps to see if any other ones do this. Any suggestions?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
BlueBagodah,

That does sound like a camera app issue, but try other camera apps from the market to see if it is the app or the way that the data is passed from the Streak to the app. I have never used a third-party camera app so can't make recommendations.

I did a quick search for camera app bugs in android and didn't locate anything, but only spent a few seconds on it. you may have better luck.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrino77:
Hello everybody, i have a question for you all.. My problem: I have a s-off Desire with Alpharev CM7, CWM Recovery 4.0.0.5 and latest radio on it. I have tried to install many, MANY roms, but all, except 2, have the same problem.. After installation from the recovery, i only see the joker face from Alpharev, and nothing more. AceSMod007, RcMixHD, VillainRom and many more.. The only 2 exceptions are MIUI, that comes to its own bootscreen, but looping and no boot, and CyanogenMod, that works great. Why that? I have tried to install Hboot Sense, Hboot stock, but nothing.. Anyone should help me please? Many thanks, regards
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopGear63z:
have you partioned you sd, if not make an ext partition of 1GB with Gparted
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexs1mmo:
If you are using cm7 hboot try upgrading to cm7r2 hboot from alpharev.nl as the roms mentioned require it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrino77:
Yes both with ext3 (by cmw) and ext4.. hboot r2 but others too
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mercianary:
Are you doing a full wipe before flashing the rom? This is needed when switching roms.

Only use cm7 hboot if your using cm7 or a rom that was designed to use that hboot. Otherwise stick with stock unless specifically required by the new rom untill you got it working.

If not maybe your recovery is messed up, try a different version.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oruchreis:
Back up your sd and use 4EXT recovery to start from strach. Create aligned partitions with this recovery. Mostly, the boot loops happen when hboot is too small for the rom or ext partition(s) is broken or not aligned. Also you can fix your partition with e2fsck.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopGear63z:
Try InsertCoin CM7, and do everything what is said above, should be fine then
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerrino77:
maybe that is.. I have installed alpharev stock hboot and reflashed original RUU, tomorrow i will try to root my phone again..

PS. with others Alpharev hboot, RUU won't upload, so, if you need to flash a RUU, is important that you install STOCK ALPHABOOT

So does turning on WIFI calling when I'm at home connected to my router save battery life?
[HTC Sensation] simply_rell:
It all depends I guess on what you are doing while on Wi-Fi
[HTC Sensation] nxt:
Well that's obvious. But I'm talking about WIFI CALLING. Does turning it on actually not use the cell radio/modem so in turn should it save battery life, since cell radio/modem uses a lot of batt.

Wondering if anyone's had experience in this. This is the first device I've had that supports tmobile's wifi calling.
[HTC Sensation] shorty87:
This is also my first device with WiFi Calling. I always have it on while I'm home because the signal is poor inside my house. Not sure if this is because of WiFi Calling, but when my phone has 30-40% battery left at night and I leave it in standby with WiFi on...I wake up to find the battery dead. So it's possible it's because of WiFi being on during the night. I sometimes put it in airplane mode so battery doesn't drop.
[HTC Sensation] dubie76:
No. Wifi itself sucks mre power than data. Even if your not on a wifi call, your wifi is still on.
[HTC Sensation] ciaphuas:
I don't think so, but wifi calling is awesome. Free calling FTW
[HTC Sensation] bryancruise:
I am not saying you're wrong, but I've always heard it's the other way around, so I did a google search. I found many posts debating this topic, but this is the best answer I've found so far, and it makes a lot of sense:

Source: http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-support-troubleshooting/93929-will-using-wifi-actually-save-battery.html

The device in question was the EVO 4G, but the same principles apply to every phone. Hope this helps.
[HTC Sensation] aim1126:
Wifi calling saves a ton of battery because it turn off the phones radio completely
[HTC Sensation] shorty87:
I don't think so. When I leave WiFi Calling on overnight, my battery is dead by morning. When I turn it off, my battery barely drops overnight.
[HTC Sensation] CB620:
I notice less battery being consumed when I'm connected to WiFi
[HTC Sensation] wideasleep1:
WIFI calling burns through my battery at least a third faster than when it's disabled. I only enable it when I intend to make a call; to receive, I use the data/tower.
[HTC Sensation] niddnet:
It's one of those non-exact sciences to say which is better on battery

The GSM/3G radio uses more power when it's active (i.e. IN USE, on a call/data) than when it's not. The difference is actually pretty huge.

Wifi radio when 'in use' uses more power than when it's 'idle' - but the difference is a lot less, due to how it keeps 'in touch' with the wifi router.

The actual amount of power they take depends on distance, radio quality, the weather (yeah, I'm serious!) etc.

There are only few providers who support Wifi calling here in the UK - Orange, I believe is one of them, so I can't comment on actual use. Of course, we have VoIP services, which I use regularly on my Sensation, over Wifi (it won't work over 3g sadly).

Out of interest, if your TMo 'Wifi calling' fully UMA compliant - i.e. can you send/recieve SMS/MMS as well? I'm interested to know if it's a UMA app, or something built into the phone, or a TMo system, or something different.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
Yeah, I can send and receive SMS/MMS when I have WiFi calling turned on. I tested it this by turning off the mobile network as well and worked.
[HTC Sensation] johnsmith970:
Make sure you go into the WiFi calling connection preferences in settings and select wifi only. Sometimes it will leave your 3g on.
[HTC Sensation] lotherius:
It's not quite as robust as the older UMA phones were, however. It does NOT handle hand-off from WIFI to CELL. You'll lose your call if you leave wifi range.
[HTC Sensation] MarlinFF:
2G is better than WiFi but WiFi definitely drains less battery than 3g/4g
[HTC Sensation] aim1126:
For me, my phone definitely lasts longer when I'm using wifi calling. My g2x generally goes through about 10% of battery every hour.when at home and using wifi calling it usually only uses about 2-5% an hour
[HTC Sensation] Googa:
I'm willing to wager that in areas of strong WiFi, the WiFi calling may save battery power. However, in an area where WiFi is weak or may drop in and out, using the cell tower may be more efficient. However, this may not be true if you're in an area with poor 4G signal (of if it's searching for 4G constantly in a 2G or 3G-only area), as it'll constantly be boosting the cellular radio to search for service.

Turning on the WiFi calling works well for me - I use it at home and at the office, both of which have very solid WiFi. Maybe I'll do a trial tomorrow with it off entirely (4G only) and see if it ends up lasting longer during normal use.
[HTC Sensation] adamo86:
Ok.everyone on this forum are talking about wifi calling I got a tmobile branded device in uk were is the feature to call via wifi.
[HTC Sensation] nxt:
On a stock T-Mobile USA HTC Sensation 4G, the app is right there preinstalled called "Wi-Fi Calling"

Not sure if it's available for T-MOBILE in Europe.
[HTC Sensation] Sdobron:
WiFi Calling will use less battery than a poor connection. A decent connection will use much less battery than WiFi Calling.

I saw this in another forum and thought I would also share it here in the Sensation Forum.

Well I'm not a Apple or MS fan, but Apple is throwing all it's punches towards Android it seems. Just shows how much of a impact Android has had on them and will have in the future.

Anyway read this article about the ITC and HTC violating Apples Patents. I hope HTC comes back a wipes the **** out of Apple in the end.

[HTC Sensation] mobileusman:
Apple is just full of crap.

This will blow over, it wont have a huge impact, they wont be able to sue much for damages even if HTC did loose. Android is open source, they will either find a loop hole or just work around it for future releases. No worries here.

[HTC Sensation] BarryH_GEG:
Patent enforcement is a big and lucrative business. All the major players have a portfolio of patents they use defensively to protect themselves from being sued. This quote sums up HTC's particular position:

HTC is considered the most vulnerable legally of the Android partners because it lacks a robust portfolio of patents that act as a potential shield. Earlier this month, HTC purchased S3 Graphics, largely because of a collection of patents that the ITC administrative law judge recently determined were used illegally by Apple.

[HTC Sensation] The Radius Kid:
They're that old??

Hmm.....IIRC,international patents last 17 years.

Two years of appeals....

I suspect that in the end,Apple will get theirs.

The sad part is that I don't dislike Apple,they just don't impress me.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
It was only judge who ruled in Apple's favor. It's still going to be reviewed by the whole panel of judges. This isn't even close to a "victory" for Apple. Yet.
[HTC Sensation] bobsbbq:
Thanks for the link, I added it to the first post as well. It looks like HTC might be buying the patents as defense.

Like others said it is a long way from over.
[HTC Sensation] aNYthing24:
It really sucks they lost out on the Nortel patents. It would have helped a lot. But honestly, this patent trolling has to stop. It's getting ridiculous now.
[HTC Sensation] jr10000:
The only reason why android is getting all these random lawsuits is because its a threat.. Apple never cared before Google bought android. YES android existed before the G1 from Google, Google bought android out and took it to new levels, which we all thank lol.. The big players do this all the time, Apple Vs Microsoft, Apple Vs. Samsung, Apple Vs. Android... Well microsoft owns part of Apple's stocks, and vise-versa, its a way to move money around without being blunt obvious..
[HTC Sensation] BarryH_GEG:
+1

Even if HTC loses, it won't really change anything except their profit margin. They'll end up paying Apple something per handset for use of their intellectual property but won't have to redesign the handsets. But now that they own patents that Apple's theoretically infringing on the whole thing could be a draw anyway.
[HTC Sensation] ciaphuas:
Apple has resorted to patent trolling hopefully...the appeals court will overturn the ruling
[HTC Sensation] rbs_uk:
Bloody Apple...why don`t they just create great products instead of suing competitors. Stupid American thinking - if you can`t beat your competitor, sue him.

But no to worry - Google reported that every day there are 550 000 Android devices activated.
[HTC Sensation] kabuk1:
I cannot believe that Apple is actually trying to claim that they invented SCROLLING and TOUCH SCREENS. And all this as they're blatantly copying Android's notifications for iOS 5. I hope Google sues the living **** out of them.

[HTC Sensation] jerrylzy:

[HTC Sensation] phantoms2k:
When your own pool of innovation has run dry, sue the other guy for having a bigger pool :p

Steve Jobs fostered this sort of thinking by Apple back in the garage days, and although they have found ways over the years to manipulate their groupthink disciples and the non-techie commonman into believing that they have changed, it's never really been any different. Small wonder, since Microsoft and Apple basically created each other, and forged their own business personas together... an endless game of backstabbing between two foul companies, whilst at the same time they attempt to destroy anyone else in the middle.

Companies like Microsoft and Apple make me wish that anti-trust investigations were more centered around *groups* of corporations, rather than simply individual ones. A lot more of the real dirt going on in the tech markets would maybe get scrubbed off of the floor, so to speak ;)
