[Verizon Droid Charge] SpiffyRob:
Hello all,

I'm thrilled to report that MLB At Bat streaming seems to work on the Charge once on Gingerbread with a simple build.prop spoof. While spoofing on Froyo gave the option to start streaming, the video would never load for me. But here I sit, watching Yankees/Jays in the 1st. (Would rather watch the Red Sox win than the Yankees lose, but they've got an extra day off following the break.)

NOTE: I'm currently running GummyCharged Gingerbread 1.0. I am 99% sure this will run on any version of Gingerbread, but if for whatever reason it doesn't, I don't know why, and probably can't help you.

While we're on the subject, I've also listed the build.prop fix that will show missing apps in the market. This is the same fix that gets done by the app linked in danalo1979's thread here.

So, if you want to fix your market to allow you to find and download MLB At-Bat 2011, and then make streaming work, change the following two lines in your build.prop:

ro.product.model=Nexus S

AND

ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/shadow_vzw/cdma_shadow/shadow:2.2.1/VZW/23.340:user/ota-rel-keys,release-keys

If you don't know how to edit your build.prop, the easiest way is to purchase Root Explorer (Don't think twice, just buy it) and then navigate to the /system folder. Click the "Mount as R/W" button, then long press on build.prop and Choose Open in Text Editor. Then copy-pasta the two lines above over whatever is there.

If you really want, you can also use Root Explorer or ADB to overwrite your build.prop with the one attached to this post. Just unzip and paste/push in the /system folder. It contains both fixes. Not the best idea in the world if you're on anything other than GummyCharged Gingerbread 1.0, but probably won't hurt anything if you're on any other GB rom.

Happy to answer any questions. Hope this works for everyone. Play ball!

NOTE: You'll need to do this again anytime you flash a rom/update.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ChrisAC:
Thanks SpiffyRob,

Coming from the OG Droid, watching MLB is one thing that I miss. But, my charge is only rooted with the PBJ non-voodoo, stock Froyo. I think I'm going to keep it that way for a while.

But it's great to know that I can upgrade to a GB based rom if I want to stream MLB games.

Side note: I just installed the WatchESPN program & tested. Works ok on the Charge.

So, thanks again. (can't find a thanks button for your post)

Chris
[Verizon Droid Charge] SpiffyRob:
Very happy to help. I took the plunge into GB once the second leak came out, and as luck would have it, GummyCharged was updated shortly thereafter. There are a few issues out there, and we won't have Voodoo until the source drops, but nonetheless, I definitely recommend upgrading.
[Verizon Droid Charge] snt:
Sorry to drag up an older thread.

I did all of the above. I can see the app in the market so I guess everything works. For the life of me, however, I can not seem to fins how to watch a game.

I can see the pitch by pitch, box, field, plays, and video highlights. I can also listen to the audio feeds, but I can not find anything anywhere for an option to watch the game.

-SNT
[Verizon Droid Charge] SpiffyRob:
Seeing it in the market only means the fingerprint hack worked. (You can see it in the market even if you're not on an MLB.TV supported device.)

When you're in scoreboard mode, does it not show the TV icon when you longpress on a game? If not, something went wrong. (Don't try now, as no games are on, but once games start give it a go.)

Hi all, I am about to go on a trip where I will probably need to use my GPS more than ever.

Thanks to a brilliant developer tytung we now have AGPS on Android Gingerbread, but I have not yet been able to have the same results as I've had in WM 6.5.

What is your experience, is Android GPS on this device as good as in Windows Mobile?

I would like to use it on a wonderful island called Cyprus. I have already downloaded the iGo with the map, but so far GPS on Android with this phone has not convinced me.

Let me know what your thoughts are on this subject, and if I should try to use Android with the GPS or just flash WM6.5 for this trip.

Thank you all in advance.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] slbenz:
On my TMOUS phone that uses Hyperdroid CM7 v2.1.0, it is as fast as I remember WM6.5 and is certainly as fast as my wife's MyTouch4G when finding the GPS signals. But I am using a customized gps.conf file that I optimized for my area. Checking AngelDeath's GPS thread, there isn't a Cyprus file to download. He suggests using the Europe or Turkey gps.conf files. Using Tytung's v1.7 NMEA file is working very fast. My first lock with the phone off overnight is now under 10 seconds. Relocks during the day are 5 seconds or less. I am not sure how fast a lock you would receive since you will be using a more "general" gps.conf file. But judging what others are experiencing on their Gingerbread builds using a much more general gps.conf that myself, I would suspect using your phone in an Android mode for GPS should work fine. But if have any doubt, then I would make sure to have WM6.5 operating on your phone.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] robrob777:
Using the Tytung 1.7 libraries, my Android GPS performs equal or better than when I was using WM6.5.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] LinChina:
Combine the suggestions of robrob777 (Tytung 1.7 libraries - from: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1100114, whether NMEA or RPC pends on your ROM) and slbenz (......a customized gps.conf file, information available on http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/ , your performance will be same or even better.........enjoy you trip !!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] xcen_xda:
As for AGPS goes... I think there's no difference between WM and Android anymore.

However, depending on the place you will go, you might want to take into consideration the GPS software available.

In my area, Garmin is the best, but it's not available on Android.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Johev:
First of all I want to thank you all for contributing to this topic. I must try a new ROM with those updated libraries, to test it decently. So far I have been a MIUI adept and hopefully the new versions have better GPS support.

As I already said before, I will be using iGO my way, as it is the only off-line GPS software for which I was able to get the maps of Cyprus. I'll try to use it here in Belgium as soon as I download the Belgium map.

One thing that I liked on the WM6.5 was the quick GPS option, where you could just connect to any Wifi connection and update the file which would last for 1 week.

Any such option in the Android builds? I hope the roaming charges just for the AGPS aren't that high.

Anyone has any experience in this field?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] j4n87:
Try gps status: tools-agps data-download

or the tool tytung provided in his thread, you can find it when you read the last five pages.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] PabloPL:
Look here. You need to add into your script commands to mount and umount system, so replace

#mount("MTD", "system", "/system");

with

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");

and

#unmount("/system");

with

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");

and it should work (not tested).

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silvertonesx24:
Does anyone with Zune pass and Mango have this problem?

When playing songs/albums downloaded from Zune Pass, randomly it seems as though the player will lock up at the very end of a song, refuse to do anything else, and require a reboot if you want to continue listening to music. This does not happen with music transferred to the device. Very annoying.

HD7. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I often disable my data connection? Though it still seems to happen over wifi.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eric12341:
nope doesn't happen to me.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prjkthack:
It could simply be a connection issue. If you are playing music off the Internet, it of course has to buffer and stream. This could simply be a result of a wonky internet connection, so your phone isn't able to get a reliable connection, so it's trying to get your next song for you, and that may unfortunately lock up your phone.

Probably a beta bug. But I've never experienced it at all.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silvertonesx24:
That makes sense, but this is happening with music that I have downloaded to my HD7 with my Zune pass. Streaming music works perfectly, but downloaded music locks Zune up between tracks. Well it technically doesn't "lock" up, but it does refuse to play any other song and just sits on the last second of the track that locked. Perhaps it's trying to get data from the server or something even though it's already downloaded?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prjkthack:
Oh I thought you were talking about streaming music with Zune Pass, downloaded Zune Pass tracks is something different.

I tested out a song and there was no lag at all.

I know that at some point, if you haven't sync'd your phone for a long time, my Zune HD would momentarily stall before playing a song I downloaded with Zune Pass. I assume its pegging the Zune server for license information to make sure I can still play it. But I haven't experienced that on Windows Phone, or even know if Windows Phone does that all (but its technically just Zune so I assume it does do it if I haven't sync'd in a long time). Though if you just upgraded to Mango, you have to plug in your phone for that just recently, so it can't be that.

Maybe just a bug? Corrupted installation? A hard reset might fix that.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonrobby:
nope doesn't happen to me.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silvertonesx24:
I did hard reset my device, and the bug appeared to be gone; however, it has since started up again. Perhaps it happened when I synced my phone to OSX, I am not sure, but it is back. Very annoying, randomly freezing when listening to my albums. It still only applies to music downloaded on Zune Pass.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlncds:
Yes, I have the same problem with 7712: It doesn`t related with data connection: I tested it with 3g+wifi, wifi without 3g, all data services off. There is the same result: player randomly stopped at the of song for a 5-10 seconds or locked at all.

PS: Phone is Samsung Omnia 7
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoitsro:
I've had this problem since upgrading too. Although even since pre NoDo, sometimes tracks would randomly pause and then resume, and then repeat that a few times.

I'm using a Samsung Omnia 7.
[EVO 4G General] commonplace:
I've been ROM-hopping, trying Synergy, Alliance, Myn, and several others. On the last one, MikG 2.3, I had it loaded up and working fine. I started installing apps from the Android Market. That, too, was going fine, until it suddenly rebooted in the middle of an app download/install.

It went to the white screen with HTC EVO 4G on it, and then went black, then back to the white screen, over and over.

Six hours later, I'm still stuck in the loop. To make matters worse, I accidentally lost root (I see "S-ON" at the top). So now I'm stuck without root until GB is rooted successfully, which hopefully isn't tooooo far off in the future.

But that's the least of my concerns. I would be extremely happy with a stock install of any sort at this point, but I can't get anything to load. No recovery, no ROMs, but I can get into HBOOT so I'm able to try to load any PC36IMG.zip files. The last one I tried was the "PC36IMG_SuperSonic_GB_Sprint_WWE_4.24.651.1_Radio_2.15.00.05.02_NV_2.15_release_199233_signed.zip" (renamed to just PC36IMG.zip, of course). It appears to load just fine and in the end says "Update Complete... Do you want to reboot device?"

I choose yes, it reboots... and we're back in the loop. I have no idea what to do or try at this point. Any help anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated! My next step is to take it to the Sprint store, but that's over an hour away and will have to wait till the weekend.

Thanks everyone!! If you need any more information, let me know. Believe me, I'll be monitoring this thread closely! :)

I'm sure uve heard this before and prob won't work but worth a try....try reformatting ur SD card and then flashing the file in bootliader again. Could be a corrupt SD card
[EVO 4G General] commonplace:
Yeah, I tried. I have several SD cards of varying sizes (4GB, 8GB, and my primary 16GB). Formatted the 4- and 8GB ones and tried from each, but no go. Thanks for the try though!

Reset phone to recovery (stock), choose fastboot. Plug in USB to computer.

Look for the correct ruu exe file and ruu it via exe method
[EVO 4G General] commonplace:
Just did it and the process went well, said it was successful... but it's still stuck in the same loop. I'm thinking the phone is beyond repair. :( Thanks for trying, though. It really looked like it might work for a second.

[EVO 4G General] davidc23:
what was the app?
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
That's what I want to know and how do you get accidentally to S-On?
[EVO 4G General] trim81:
Put the phone in a refrigerator ... as crazy as it sounds, it might be the infamous overheating issue.

Put in refrigerator, for about 5min
[EVO 4G General] commonplace:
The app was "Kid Zone" (Zoodles), but I'm not blaming the app by any means. I've used it for a long time, it's highly-rated in the market, etc. I'm sure it's just a coincidence.

As far as getting back to S-ON, I think it must have been when I flashed the stock recovery. I was flashing so many things out of desperation that I can't swear to that, but I'm pretty sure that's what did it. Now that it looks like I'm heading to the Sprint store tomorrow, I guess it's a GOOD thing it's back to S-ON. Heh.

Pretty sure it's not heat-related. My phone was off all night (since it's not usable) in an air conditioned room, so it's cool to the touch. I tried the RUU process again with the same results. (I'm not sticking it in the refrigerator, because I'm afraid of activating the water-damage sensor -- I don't want any excuses from Sprint when I bring it in tomorrow!)

Appreciate the help!!

/Kevin
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
That sucks, but tbh, I have yet to see one case of anyone at Sprint checking a bootloader to see if a phone is S-On. MOF, I bet if it doesn't boot at all, or is a stock ROM , they wouldn't even know the difference.
[EVO 4G General] commonplace:
I hear ya. I haven't run into any techs at my local stores that are knowledgeable about this kind of stuff. (I know others have, so you never know, but I have yet to see one.)

/Kevin
[EVO 4G General] commonplace:
To conclude this: I went to the Sprint store today where they assured me they would reload the software but it would take 1.5 hours. I came back 1.5 hours later... and they handed me a new (refurb) EVO. :D They said they weren't able to load anything on the phone.

So, no surprise with the outcome there. I was fairly certain they were going to have to replace the EVO, and they did.

Thanks to everyone who tried to help, but it was just beyond help!

[EVO 4G General] BlackHeart001:
I had that same problem with my phone back in November. Continues boot loop. Finally, having boot loop for 8hrs, I took it to Sprint and they replaced my phone. They called it a power cycle issue. $35 new refurbished phone works well. Never had a problem since.
[HD2 Accessories] KT:
Hi all,

My HD2 running HyperDroid v12 from Pongster is a dream phone. Everything is working excellent except recently I got the digitizer changed from a local shop here in LA and in the process of fixing the digitizer the idiot seems to have ruined my GPS related hardware (which obviously he is not owning up to). I tried all sorts of software remedies (including changing ROMS) but nothing seems to get a GPS lock.

My questions is -

Is there any way to buy and replace the GPS receiver in the phone?

Thanks
[HD2 Accessories] Moon2:
The guy might have accidentally removed the connection from the circuit board, I remember seeing threads from before of other's doing the same thing when fixing the digitizer.
[HD2 Accessories] KT:
Thanks Moon :)

Any recommendations on what tools to buy to open my HD2? Any schematics on what the gps antenna would look like? Coudnt find similar threads for HD2...
[HD2 Accessories] Moon2:
Here's links to official disassembly & assembly videos:

Disassembly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cL-jnUKufC4&feature=player_embedded

Assembly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8Q7mXdcJ54&feature=player_embedded

__________________________________________________________________

They tell you what you need, and instead of the "flat plastic stick", a guitar pick should be fine.

- No need to remove speaker from housing.

- Ignore everything from 1:47, and look at 3:22 from the disassembly video, instead of removing the gps coaxial cable, check if it's actually connected properly, if not, just push it in.

_______________________________________________________________

I'll try and find those threads I remember reading, in which the OP and other members had the same problem after replacement of digitizer.
[HD2 Accessories] KT:
Thanks so much bro... Greatly appreciate your help!
[HD2 Accessories] KT:
Hi Moon,

I followed the steps in the videos you provided and opened my HD2. The GPS coaxial cable seems to be fit in snug, which I guess is indicative that the GPS antenna itself may have gone bad somehow. Possible?

I did a little searching and found this link where I can buy an antenna from -

http://www.gsm4world.us/oem-htc-hd2-t8585-gps-antenna-board-flex-ribbon-cable-d-03752_579.html

That said, I am not too comfortable trying to replace it by myself. Any chance anybody knows a person/shop in the LA area who may have expertise in such jobs? The one I found in Glendale (CellularDR) is the reason this has happened so I'm not too keen on re-visiting them.

Thanks again for all the help!

Can't you get a separate external GPS receiver and bluetooth it?

It kinda beats the purpose of havnig a all in one device, plus you need to always watch 2 batteries and not just one :). But, I must say it is the safe option and worth considering.

New back housing w/antennas

I had to replace the back housing on my phone as it broke (it looked like the plastic had deteriorated), and the new one comes with all 3 antenna attached, and a new battery cover for less than US 20.00. I have better reception now on all 3 radios, and the phone looks new again. If your have to take it apart anyway, why not replace the whole back? I got it from these people, eBay item 350487086071, but there are tons out there, and it was dead simple. Unscrewed the four screws, used the plastic piece to pop the snaps, and that was it.

YMMV, but for only 20, you can rule out the antennas if nothing else.
[HD2 Accessories] yugoport:
Hi mate, thank you so much for your reply, great tip, and good to know that is good quality product, and because I have a spare battery cover I bought only the chassis.. great price I will start from there.. thanks once again.

I am really interested in a widget that covers all of a Honeycomb screen. I use Pure Grid Calendar widget on my EVO, but right now there isn't a 8x7 or whatever the full size would be.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] muzicman82:
Looks similar to Pure Grid Calendar. Do you have any screenshots of this on a Honeycomb home screen? Like I said, I'm looking for a full screen widget.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] muzicman82:
Not a bad widget. With a name like WIZZ, no wonder I couldn't find it.

While it functions as a large calendar widget, it lacks all of the customization and options that Pure Grid has. Hopefully they'll update with a re-sizable widget soon.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] gregbridwell1:
I use Touch Calendar. I added the biggest widget on one of the home screens and long pressed it as if I were going to move it or remove it. Instead of moving it, I long pressed until it flashed and then removed my finger. It remained outlined with a blue line. I was then able to drag this blue line and re-size the widget just like with ADW Launcher for example. So I re-sized to a full screen widget.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] coolacid217:
