[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murfi:
yes.

buy a fisheye-lense -.-

there is a rather popular product that does the job quite well, just look for "fish eye iphone" on amazon. it comes with a magnetic ring that you have to glue around the cameras objective, and the fisheye-lense that sticks to the magnetic ring. work on all phones that have a plane, straight back surface (i have a nexus s and i assume i cant glue the ring on it because its camera is sticking out a bit and has a slanted transition to the back cover.

It all started when i was transferring file from my computer to the sd card thru the usb and they kept deleting on there own. So i figured ill do a factory reset and reflash decks 1.2, so i did the factory reset then tried to flash the rom and it keeps aborting and it says (bad), i tried flashing three roms and nothing, so then i tried doing a PC36IMG thru the bootloader and it does not seem to read the file nothing comes up to do an update PLEASE HELP

I did put the nand backup on the sd and tried doing a restore but them dots in ra just kept going for like 45mins never stoped
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
For your first problem, the download was bad, so try it again, or directly from your phone. If using a mac, you need to use a browser that isn't safari. As for the backup, it may be corrupted, you can always re flash the recovery. And make sure you do not have more than one PC36IMG file on your sd card.

This epic reply brought to you by none other than my roxx'd out Evo.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
There is a possibility that your SD card needs to be reformatted. Copy the contents of the card to your computer or external hard disk and then, using your recovery (preferably amonRA v2. 3), go to the wipe menu and wipe EVERYTHING in it. Afterwards, do not reboot. Simply connect your device to your computer and then select the USB-MS option within recovery. When your computer recognizes the card, copy only the rom onto it. Select the USB-MS option again to disengage. Now flash the rom.

[General Questions and Answers] mediavieja:
Hi, i bought my China Hero H2000 phone yesterday and iv been messing around with the android tools but there's one that is killing me atm and is the fact that i cant update the Market to the US one and the most updated atm (3.0.26), because every time i try to update it fails.

So i found on a website a way to install the market manually in a update.zip file on recovery mode, but this phone recovery mode only shows these options:

Reboot system now

apply sdcard:update.zip

wipe data/facory reset

wipe cache partition

but the apply sdcard:update.zip didn't work for me, so i decided to google a bit more and found an application called Rom Manager and with it a recovery application called ClockworkMod Recovery which does shows the proper options to do this update procedure. So i decided to give it a shot and install it, once i choose the option it asked me for my phone model so i choose HTC Hero thinking that it was going to work, the app installed successfully but once i booted into recovery mode the phone hangs at the little droid in the bottom right corner of the phone so i have to take the battery out and back in in order to make the phone work again.

So now im stuck with no recovery mode and my old recovery mode with the options i mention before is lost and i cant find any info on the web on how to get it back or how to get a proper recovery mode app to install the market, can anyone help me here pls?

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drnihili:
Whenever I do a USB file transfer to my phone, Windows complains that there may be a problem with some files and offers to scan and fix the device. Should I let it, or just keep ignoring it?

Running CM7 on the phone and Windows7 on the pc, but it's been doing this for a while, even back on CommRom.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dalamar1320:
The reason it does that's is because either a) thereis a problem with the SD catftot b) you ate not ejecting it properly from your computer whenever you connect your phone to the PC. Most of the time the latter is the issue. You should let it run but also eject your device properly so you don't mess it up later
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lane32x:
So I learned a very interesting tidbit about a year ago. The problem with flash memory is that if the power is disconnected during a WRITE operation, it will kill it (almost definitely). However, if you are only doing a READ operation (copy from device to computer, reading a TXT file, etc), then it is safe to pull the drive at any time.

The long and short of it is that After you have copied files to your phone, Windows continues to write excess data in the background,

even after the file transfer dialog has gone away

. And on my old mp3 player (Cowon S9) this led to many tears for a lot of people.

So always always always tell your family members who don't know the difference b/t WRITE and READ to simply ALWAYS "safely remove" their flash media.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drnihili:
Thanks folx, I'll let Windows have its way with the card next time it wants to.
[Motorola Droid X2] DJJasonK:
Just got Google+ invite and app, and yes its awesome. However, I can't seem to get the instant upload to work when I take pictures. Works fine on my rooted incredible. I tried unfreezing everything on the X2, but no dice. Anyone else having the same issue? Any advice?

Thought I had edited this earlier. After unfreezing everything, I switched storage to internal on cam app. Removed google +rebooted and reinstalled it and now it works fine.
[Motorola Droid X2] bokajay@gmail.com:
The Moto CAMERA.apk doesn't seem to work with instant upload. The stock camera.apk does though. Hopefully someone will create a 8 MP version shortly that works with the DX2.

Here is the thread for the stock camera that uses the search button as a dedicated shutter button.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1154854
[Motorola Droid X2] DJJasonK:
Moto vs stock?

Do you mean the stock android cam works with instant upload, but the X2 stock app doesn't? If that's the case try some of the things I did, because it works fine now. DROID Incredible is also 8mp and works fine too. I would really like the stock cam to work with search button, because I didn't care for the stock android one.
[Motorola Droid X2] 3UR0TR45H:
It's working great for me but I'm using Vignette as my sole camera app. You should check it out...it's awesome!
[Motorola Droid X2] DJJasonK:
Great cam app.

Great app. I had tried it before, and it seemed a bit cheesy, but its great now.
[Motorola Droid X2] spacebrew:
I installed Vignette and it only took 4x3 photos. I'm pretty attached to the widescreen ones.
[Vibrant Android Development] roffee:
Yes, many people are still complain the GPS can't lock(maybe can see satellites) or very slow.

After i saw KarlHegbloom's suggestion to use AngryGPS

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15692063&postcount=6283

But in the beginning i don't know how to let it run, so study and study.....

finally i got it :D

step1: Download gpsd from trigger build12 in here (gpsd in cm7 or build13 are not stable, it hard to lock, i don't why,maybe birgertime can tell what's the differents)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15696219&postcount=6289

step2:

update 0718 :

s0niqu3 made install apk for angrygps, it's very easy way than mine, you can try it,and directly to step4

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15721652&postcount=13

manual way(mine): download Angrygps.apk in here

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15695743&postcount=6288

Use root explore to replace gpsd in system\vendor\bin\

and put angrygps.apk in system\app and change permission

my setting (read check all, write only check first, execute no check), but someone say he need to check all. anyway you can try both.

Reboot, then angrygps, not angrybird is running.

if you are lucky, your gps become fantastic now.

if not. you should long click desktop(need ADW launch)

step3:Create custom shorcut-> chose your application -> Activities -> AngryGPS -> .AngryGPS

After this you will get a angrygps shortcut in desktop.

step4:

Run it and to config as your wish.

tip: I change setting-general setting-operation mode from standalone to msbased. and now i can lock in twenty seconds.

Please test GPS outdoor

BTW, in CM7 you can turn off gps and turn on, it's all ok.

Thanks atinm&birgertime&KarlHegbloom

[Vibrant Android Development] gemstocks:
Works great. Locked in 7 birds while I am playing this phone in the indoor hot tub. Accurate to 13 feets.
[Vibrant Android Development] navmit1:
Thanks a ton. It worked like a charm.

Thanks again.
[Vibrant Android Development] gemstocks:
After rebooted, it doesnt see any am birds. Rebooted a couple more times, still not working. Will tweak the Angry GPS.
[Vibrant Android Development] beren28:
For Launcher Pro Users, you can add the shortcut to angrygps with:

long press home screen --> Shortcuts --> Activities --> AngryGps (pick the first one)

Also, when I first did this gps would not start for me. Nothing happened, no gps icon. I needed to change the permissions on gpsd to include execute and the reboot. Looking good now.

Also I am getting fast locks leaving it in standalone mode.
[Vibrant Android Development] jamesyl:
How does the GPS work (post-AngryGPS) with Google Maps/Navigation?
[Vibrant Android Development] beren28:
Seems just fine with maps.

I have not tested navigation.
[Vibrant Android Development] Oxirane:
Does this work with any MIUI builds?
[Vibrant Android Development] s0niqu3:
Hey everyone,

So first, this mod seems to work quite well on my phone, admittedly I'm in shock at having locks in just a minute or so, and accuracy under ~10meters. I'll withold final judgment until I've used it for a couple of days.

In the meantime though, here's a modified version of AngryGPS.apk that will show up in your launcher drawer without the need of bettercut/adw/launcherpro/etc.

Its been re-signed by me, so the signature won't match the original version posted, so you must remove the original and clear all its data first.

If you installed it normally, just uninstall through manage applications, else if you pushed the app to /system/app then you need to do:

adb shell

su

cd /system/app

rm -r AngryGPS.apk

cd /

cd /data/data

rm -r com.android.angryGps

Anyway, thanks for the fix, and enjoy.

Cheers, :)

Saw this and figured why not it won't hurt, and wow currently have 7 of 11 locked indoors with 89 foot accuracy. it is jumping all over the place but haven't tested outdoors yet. Thank have been given, hopefully this stays working.

Edit: Just brought up maps with satelite and looks like it has me sitting on my front porch instead of my room, which is almost as good as 2.2.
[Vibrant Android Development] Dattack:
No lock indoors right now. You guys need to fix the permission on the gpsd also?
[Vibrant Android Development] svladimir:
No GPS at all for me.

I've granted all possible permissions - still nothing.
[Vibrant Android Development] archie53:
No, after i extracted on PC, moved to phone, and then using root explorer moved it into the appropriate location, it asked if i wanted to replace and I said yes. It didn't work right for me until I did what the OP did at the end with making a shortcut and switching the one setting to MSBased. After that it has worked and have seen as good as 7m accuracy with 7 sats indoors, but it does seem to be jumpy but I'm wondering if that is because I am inside.
[Vibrant Android Development] ewidtfeldt:
I was skeptical as all GPS fixes have been spotty or nothing at all for me. But this works! Locking indoors down to within 30 ft.
[Vibrant Android Development] gmiller777:
Wow! This works for me also. 1st time my Vibrant has had working GPS on any ROM. Eclair, Froyo, or Ginger. Why couldn't Sammy / Tmobile do this? I thought I had one of the bad GPS chips. Thanks all who contributed. Using CyanogenMod 7 nightly 56.
[Vibrant Android Development] Phateless:
I'm skeptical but trying this out anyway. On last few nightlies of cm7 I've been able to see satellites and get locks after a long-ass while but it hasn't been stable.

Navi even worked reasonably well for me on the way to work one day but by the end of the day it couldn't lock a single bird.

Thanks to OP for writing this up and thanks to everyone for their efforts! That Angry GPS app is super cool, lol.
[Vibrant Android Development] Phateless:
Holy ****ing hell, it works!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] Phateless:
Screwed around with it back and forth and now nothing, not even seeing a single bird. Weird....

It's like GPS stops working once the chip gets hot?
[Vibrant Android Development] jamesyl:
MS Based is Assisted GPS. It'll use whatever data connectivity you have to use assist in making a lock. MS Based will cut down your cold-start lock time by 30-60 seconds, so I recommend this (with a working SUPL server) unless you don't have a data plan.
[Vibrant Android Development] elmejor183:
Happyyyyy New Yearrrrrss !!!!! oh wait Happy GPS!!!!!! lol

just a tip i tried MSBASED and it took a longer time than MSASSISTED . But thats with about 5 minutes of observations. Thanks to all whom figured this out.

Using Trigger redux 13. Need some help. Its not working. I downloaded the files.

I placed angrygps.apk in system\app and change permission. I installed the file and its not showing up with my other apps. (when you install it, the "Open" button is grayed out).

[Vibrant Android Development] OPTheory:
Just to make sure I do this right... if I use the APK that s0niqu3 posted here for Angry GPS, do I still need to put that GPSD file in system\vendor\bin\ or does the APK take care of that?
[Vibrant Android Development] quadratic:
You will still need to manually place the gpsd.

Couldn't someone make a CWM package to do this?
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
Still can't get a lock. Tried hot and cold start, msassisted and msbased, I've tried standalone also. I can't get a lock inside or outside. It does see the eye in the sky almost immediately, but simply won't connect. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks. :-)

I've changed the permissions to 755 on the gpsd and installed angrygps as a normal app, still no luck.
[Vibrant Android Development] zhuzf:
First of all, you should make sure the AGPS is working. I recommend you to use GPS Test which is free on android market, you can find the list of Sats very soon if AGPS working. Then, it needs some time to get locked. You'd better go outside. Perhaps also need a reboot。
[Vibrant Android Development] Phateless:
I used root explorer and it works. Just click once on the rar to open it like a folder. Long press on the file inside the rar and choose extract.
