[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cleblanc92:
I don't think it will help with my (rare) case as I work from home and VPN into the corp office. I can't use WIFI for this type of sharing and the VPN adapter is the only network possible on the device at that time. Just another limitation that is a factor is a solution :(

I imaging this could work well otherwise. Thanks for the suggestion as I am sure others may benefit.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dsMA:
I was wondering if anyone is experiencing a problem with battery life as it relates to google maps and latitude? When I look at the battery stats after waking up in the morning there are only three entries: cell standby, phone idle, and maps. The bar that shows how often the phone has been awake was riddled with blue marks showing that phone was almost always awake. When clicking on maps it showed that it had an awake time of 2 hours. I had the phone screen off for 7 hours while I slept and I had lost 26%. All the settings for latitude are at their defaults.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] DaRkL3AD3R:
I know you posted this under a different phones board from the one I have (HTC Thunderbolt) but I am experiencing the same exact issue.

I'm currently in the testing phase of not signing into Latitude at all to see how that affects battery life.

I already tested out:

- Uninstall of Google Maps entirely: solves battery/wake problem

- Sign in to Latitude but no Auto Updates: still have battery/wake problem

So now I am testing if there is a wake problem without signing into Latitude at all.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dsMA:
keep me updated on your testing and results. I wouldn't be surprised if this wasn't a phone specific problem.

It is odd how so many people view but none of them reply :-(
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] greglord:
Hi,

I'm having the exact same issue, and if you google a bit, you will find out there's at least 10.000 more people having the same issue (Maps being #1 battery drainer, disabling Latitude will help). My phone is Samsung Galaxy S, I've seen problems reporting from all possible phones so I suggest you post this exact problem on device-non-specific thread: http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=564 (maybe in Q&A?).

It doesn't matter which maps version you're having (I had 5.8.0 and 5.9.0), none fixed the problem :).

CM7 nigtly @ Samsung Galaxy S.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] aiwetir:
Without knowing what roms you guy are using but one of you, I think it's a CM7 nightly problem which may have been solved in the last nightly.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dsMA:
I was running the TeamHeroC ROM from Jul 8th or 24th I forget which exact one I was running. I will download the latest CM7 nightly and see if that fixes it.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dsMA:
I did a complete wipe and flashed CM7 nightly 167. Prior to logging into latitude I lost roughly 10% of battery in 10hrs over night while sleeping and maps did not show up in the list of apps when you check battery information. When logged into latitude I lost roundly 20% battery in 10hrs over night while sleeping and maps did show up in the list of apps when checking battery information and it showed it was responsible for 13% of the battery drain.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] danmullen:
I'm on stock KI4 and have exactly the same problem - battery drain is incredibly high due to Maps keeping the phone awake. Gonna try disabling Latitude.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ajrty33:
Thanks for letting us know.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kaushal101:
Galaxy S2 stock (Orange UK branded), same problem.

Signing out from Latitude improves battery consumption. But that shouldn't be the solution.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] mao11:
HTC Legen with stock rom and CM9 ICS same problem.

I've also googled a lot and found many with the problem but no one with the solution... and it's been almost 2 years that this problem occurs.

Does anyone have titanium pro (I only have free version) and try to freeze maps?

Here there is another try but not working:

Hello,

I have a korean wave 2(M210S). Is it possible to flash it with european(s8530) firmware, or not?

Thanks in advance.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] adfree:
Welcome. :cool:

Sorry. No idea... some asian/chinese Firmware have different Bootloader, different adresses in memory... maybe also different frequencies... not sure if CDMA or GSM too in Korea... :o

Please, can you maybe help us to get M210S Firmware to check few differences?

Is there any M210S Firmware for Download somewhere?

Or maybe internal Documents? Also for korean S8500 would be very helpfull.

Thanx in advance.

Sorry that I have no solution for you yet. :o

At this time better NOT try to flash S8530 Firmware with Bootchange... high chance to brick your handset.

my M210S is bricked now, and the only firmware i can find is KG1 but lack of BOOT Files is kies can find firmwares for downgrade?or is the check fus downloader can find the lower version of firmware? like M210SKSKA3 or M210SKSKD1？
[Bada Software and Hacking General] adfree:
:(

"Kies" can only access latest Firmware in 2 types...

-official public

-or in Test Mode you have chance to access "Test Firmware" before release as offical public...

You can't choose... Kies Database choose for you...

We have to find other ways to find full korean Firmware...

Btw.

Please.

How is first Wave aka S8500 name?

Nice bro thanks
[Android Apps and Games] mahatma:
So what this application does is just unlocking your phone in save places so you do not have to and when you leave it goes to protected state?

Very good. Any known issues?

Like the guy who can not uninstall it?

As i understand it is so good protested that he slashed the phone and it still asks for the password. It should also give some contact info where to return the phone or who to call if your phone was found.
[Android Apps and Games] g4rb4g3:
Exactly, it uses the android lock screen security feature for that. The app just sets the password to nothing while connected to a trusted Wi-Fi network. When the connection is lost it sets the password back to the one you have entered.

Known issue: It seems the first version had a problem sometimes to decrypt the saved password and has set the encrypted string as password. THIS CAN'T HAPPEN ANYMORE WITH THE UPDATED VERSION. If something goes wrong while decrypting it will set an empty password (the phone is not locked).

If you uninstall the app while not connected to a trusted network the app can't disable/change your password anymore. You can only disable/change the password in the Android Settings then(Settings-> Location & Security -> Change screen lock).

I don't think this is something this app should do, you won't have such information when using the normal screen lock security too. Since the app just disables the screen lock security in trusted profiles I don't think this feature is something that this app has to have.
[Android Apps and Games] mahatma:
OK i installed the app and now i am i my home secured network and when i am waking the phone it asks me about the password not the pattern i had but i suspest it shuld not ask me for it at all if i am in the trusted network?
[Android Apps and Games] g4rb4g3:
This does not work for the unlock pattern only for PIN and password. You have to add your network to the trusted networks. Then you pick it from the list and choose what you want when the phone connects to this network.
[Android Apps and Games] Jbb3393:
Cannot uninstall
[Android Apps and Games] zeke1988:
im not trying to be rude, but this app is exactly same as unlock with wifi....
[Android Apps and Games] g4rb4g3:
You have to disable device admin mode to uninstall it. You can do this in the app settings or in the Android settings.
[Android Apps and Games] g4rb4g3:
No its not exactly the same, with my app you can add wifi profiles that only disable bluetooth. Unlock with wifi just provides the option to disable bt when you lose any wifi connection. I asked Ben74 to add such a feature but he didn't want to. His app has other options like enable/disable gps that I don't need so I didn't add them.

But maybe you should read the whole first post, I have explained it and have thanked Ben74 for the idea.
[Android Apps and Games] mahatma:
Guess what

I attempted to uninstall the app

I switched off administrator mode

uninstalled the all successfully and when it went to lock screen it asks me now for the password?

I am trying to use password that i used during installation and what? Wrong Password

what can be done now?

I am dredding to attempt to uninstall it from my wifes phone.
[Android Apps and Games] mahatma:
Any help??
[Android Apps and Games] g4rb4g3:
I have uploaded a new version which doesn't have the "unknown password" bug anymore for sure!

If you have downloaded the app before 08-15-2011: Update to the latest version! If you don't want to update but uninstall the app disable device admin in the Android settings (Settings -> Location & security -> Select device administrators) and NOT in the app settings!
[Android Apps and Games] UKseagull:
I'm trying the app on my Tab right now, thanks for making it available.

If I disable the wifi on the Tab, should the lock/password screen appear the next time I take it out of standby? I just want to test that the app is working as it should.
[Android Apps and Games] mahatma:
i managed to switch off screen locking and properly unindtalled the wifilocker but now when i switch on screen lock with pin or password after it goes on it again does not recognise the password or PIN even the app is not installed

What have your app done to my phone??!!
[Android Apps and Games] mahatma:
I installed new version and it is the same problem sorry wrong password

i uninstalled it and before that i removed wifi unlocker from (Settings -> Location & security -> Select device administrators) and the same problem.

The question is WHAT this app done to our passwords? and why it can not be undone even by uninstalling the app and reflashing the phone?!!!

whenever you switch on any password or screen lock it does not recognise it when you trying to use it. It is something messed with password encryption algorithm.
[Android Apps and Games] mahatma:
I think that if we should to test the app for you and kill our devices there should be better support not once a day
[Android Apps and Games] mahatma:
the only difference between the old and new FIXED version that before once i managed to enter the phone i could change the screenlock and just switch it off. Now i can not as it asks about the password so it is even worst than it was.

Any update?

Any help

Any toughts?

Is that app just a prank to see how far will we go in bricking our handhealds?
[Android Apps and Games] prodygee:
Wow, I think this app needs to removed right away. It's in a state that it's able to brick devices. Flashing a different rom after wiping everything keeps the unknown password bug in there.

And **** **** piss, what a hassle to contact a mod. Did you notice my post by swearing? Devices became unusable because of this app. Nothing personal to the developer, but it needs more testing! And not to the public anymore.
[Android Apps and Games] g4rb4g3:
When you have set up a password in the app it is applied immediately. You can add a WiFi network to the trusted profiles then. If you want to disable the password while connected to this WiFi network you have to pick it in the list and activate "Disable screen lock".
[Android Apps and Games] g4rb4g3:
This app can't brick a device, it uses a Android features to set/remove a PIN/password. http://developer.android.com/refere...ger.html#resetPassword(java.lang.String, int)

The old version had a bug that set the encrypted string as password (the password is not saved as cleartext since on rooted phones it would be easy to get the password). If you realy wipe a phone everything (everything, the password, all the apps, all other settings) is gone. How should my app brick a phone, it doesn't even have root access?

I tried different things on my phone (HTC Desire Z) and no matter what I did to lock it, with a wipe everything was gone(password/apps/settings...).

A reflash alone won't help since it doesn't delete anything, it just reflashs the /system partition which doesn't hold any settings/passwords...

I know my app had a pretty bad bug, I'm realy sorry for that but the only thing it did was to set up a wrong password. It's like you would set up a password and forget it someday. But if I get the right informations I can recalculate the password and everything should work out then.
[Android Apps and Games] bimmerd00d:
It doesn't seem to work on an Atrix with a fingerprint reader.
[Android Apps and Games] planetf1:
I take it this only works if there isn't a password policy already set (which makes sense, as you wouldn't be able to remove the password in the gui either)

Nice idea...
[Android Apps and Games] helpplz:
hi, after installing this app and giving it my pin i cannot unlock my screen anymore.

the pin however still works to decrypt it when i reboot it.

any ideas please?

do i have to reset my phone? :crying:

edit:

i dont know if this had something to do with it being encrypted

i've tried a similar commercial app after factory resetting my phone and realized that i might just had to press enter when i was asked for the pin in my homenetwork so this app might not be buggy and i do not want to say bad things about it with respect to the developer.
[Android Apps and Games] orb3000:

[Touch HD General] lie_ui:
We discussed before the clock issue in Android (where the clock always lagged).

In my FRX07, I enabled "use network provided time" and it seems to be okay.

What I noticed is that, every time I reboot the phone to Windows Mobile, the clock in Windows Mobile is messed up (not the minutes, but the hours).

Everytime I reboot to Windows Mobile, I would like to correct the hour in the clock.

Look around but I could not find how to enable the clock in WM to use the network provided time as well.

Any input/help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Touch HD General] arrrghhh:
This is a WinMo issue, not an Android issue.

Android (and Linux/FreeBSD/every other OS) stores time in UTC, and then works backwards to your local time. WinMo (and Windows OS...) stores it in the local timezone only. So when you boot back to WinMo, it'll be exactly off by whatever offset you are from UTC.

To fix this, you need to resolve on the WinMo side. My phone always gets the time from the carrier - I'm a lucky CDMA user that always gets NITZ from my carrier :D.

If you're not so lucky and are on a GSM carrier that doesn't update your time properly, then you'll need to find some app in WinMo that keeps the clock synced. I can't help you here - again this is a WinMo problem, not Android!!. My solution for me is to just let the time update from my carrier. Again, if that does not work for you, find some atomic clock app or some such thing. Thanks!
[Touch HD General] ypsmav:
Hi lie_ui,

I use the following trick to avoid the problem when I'm back to WM.

In Android, I set up the time manually and I select a time zone -2 hours.

For example if you are in GMT+5, setup Android manually in GMT+3. In this way you will have no problems.

To avoid the time lag, I use clocksync from the market, which works ok.
[Touch HD General] lie_ui:
Thanks for the ideas! I will try it. Do mind explain to me where the -2 hours coming from? Just try to understand the logic. Thanks.
[Touch HD General] arrrghhh:
Re-read my post. He's trying to circumvent the UTC effect... So he's setting it 2hrs back to offset UTC for his timezone...
[Touch HD General] Daved+:
I don't want to use a wrong timezone and I'm on GSM so I use ClockSync to set the time correctly in Android but I haven't found a similar application to do the same in WinMo so I'm setting my time manually everytime I want to use WinMo, it really sucks. Does anyone know any application that will sync the time automatically via NTP on WinMo?
[Touch HD General] arrrghhh:
This is the Android Development section... Please ask in the general/WinMo section. Thanks.

Gooooogle found this, no clue if it works or not:

http://www.ehow.com/how_6717575_configure-windows-mobile-use-ntp.html
[Touch HD General] korn2:
Can we add some command or setting in Android's "STARTUP.txt" to offset the time?

But it still don't solve the time problem if we boot back to WinMo.
[Touch HD General] arrrghhh:
It's really a WinMo issue. If your phone syncs its time with the carrier in WinMo, the problem is solved. I've never had this issue, but I guess my carrier always sends out NITZ so my time is always correct... love that CDMA :p.

Since it is a WinMo issue, you'll have to solve it with a WinMo app - find some atomic clock application for WinMo that automatically syncs the time in WinMo. ClockSync for Android, something similar for WinMo and you won't have the issue.
