For anyone coming from an HTC HD2, wakeup lag on the SGS2 is nothing compared to this.

The panel had a wake up issue itself. I don't think SGS2 is related to that as my phone always wakes up fast except when it's been off for 10 minutes or more.

[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
So I came across this (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1101066) thread in the DHD forum the other day, and had mixed feelings about it. In theory it makes sense, but in practice it seems kind of scary. Anyway, I've had GPS issues on and off since I got my Inspire, sometimes it would work excellent, sometimes it would kind of work, sometimes it wouldn't work at all. I've tried every software solution I could think of (new radios, gps script, reinstalling locations, wiping EFS partition, etc), and I figured my problem had to be hardware, but I'd never seen a hardware solution offered until I came across this thread. First off I would like to say that I have not tried this fix yet, however I'm inclined to and here's why:

After reading this, I started thinking, "OK, so it's just not getting good enough pressure on the GPS antennae contacts, wonder what would happen if I tried to apply manual pressure?" So I launched GPS Test and watched it find 2 or 3 satellites, but didn't lock after about a minute. So I applied pressure to the battery flash/GPS cover, 1 finger on the top of it 1 finger on the bottom, making sure not to cover the hole. What happened? Immediately it found 9 satellites and locked to 20ft, showing better connections to the satellites than i've EVER seen. I let off the pressure and watched as the signal strength to these satellites dropped intensely, went back to 2 or 3 satellites, and lost the lock. I again applied pressure, got a bunch of satellites back and got an immediate lock.

Before I go about taking my phone apart and trying to fix these contacts from the inside, I wanted to see if applying pressure on the back flash/GPS cover improved anything for anybody else, or if it's just my imagination. Please report back
[HTC Inspire 4G] SuicideMyk:
I havn't had any problems with my gps, but if the problem you are having is what I was having I would be cracking the phone open to fix it...

I dont mind taking things apart :D
[HTC Inspire 4G] tribestros:
My GPS works, but there's some disconnect between Navigation and the GPS, I sware. If I run Navigation by itself, then I lose signal 2-3 minutes after getting a lock. If I run My Tracks in the background, then it stays locked.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
3 Inspires, no GPS issues at all, but it makes sense and doesn't look difficult at all. Go for it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
Well I tried it. I can't say if it was me applying pressure or me just getting lucky with signal and clear skies...but I locked to 7 very quickly and it found my location with in 20 feet here as well.

Interesting...
[HTC Inspire 4G] SuicideMyk:
cool deal :cool:

not bad and it didnt seem that hard to do, keep checking on it to make sure for the next few days
[HTC Inspire 4G] Shad0w2626:
Um, I just tried applying pressure and got 8 meter lock on inside my house. My GPS usually NEVER locks on, even outside in clear skies. Wtf.

Edit: And now it's working all the time. I love you.
[HTC Inspire 4G] shugga101:
It didn't hurt to apply pressure to the area where you said the gps contacts are. So I opened up gps status in my home. Let it try and find some satellites on its own. Nothing was happening for a few seconds. Then I applied pressure to where the flash is on our phones one finger above the flash and the other below the flash. It then fixes satellites on my phone. And when I let go the fixed satellites dropped and my radius grew. I tried applying again and then it went back and started to drop. So I let go and it went up so I think the contacts are contacting and now I'm just covering up the gps but it seems to work. So now when I want to use gps ill remember this trick.

Thanks
[HTC Inspire 4G] tthayer:
I pried out the flash cover and noticed that the antenna contacts on the cover were oxidized except for the part where the corner of the spring contacts landed. I scraped away the oxidation with a sharp object and bent the spring contacts up a little bit to make a firmer connection and I immediately got a boost in GPS reception. I dont' know what metal makes up the antenna in the flash cover but it sounds like oxidation builds back up again after a couple of months. I'll keep an eye on it and post an update.
[HTC Inspire 4G] dcd17:
This is perfect! I just did it, took about ten minutes. After reboot I just locked to under 60ft indoors during Hurricane Irene.

Thanks so much for this, now I can stop reading all these damn gps threads!

Another update: just locked to 24ft outside in less than 15 seconds.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Oleschuldad:
GPS lock

Christ..I dont believe this.. I always have problems with Google Navigation getting satellite lock..and maps is usually like 1500-1600ft +or-... I did the pressure on the spots above and below the flash like you guys said... all of a sudden..boom! GPS lock inside my house..(never happens) and 9 satellites locked..(most I ever saw was 5 before when I was outside in a clear area.)..the GPS nav icon is almost on my house roof! :)

[HTC Inspire 4G] eryk4381:
I have actually noticed the same issues as you were describing. I have pushed on the back and waited and then found the signal got better. Then released the pressure and it got either worse or just stayed the same. Different results every now and then. I have also taken it apart and tried the DHD fixed that your describing and it worked excellent for a little bit then nothing. I'm returning it now to have HTC fix it. Probably the easiest way. Sucks not having a phone but at least they will give me a phone that does everything its supposed to. They were really nice about it too.
[HTC Inspire 4G] g3ismeee:
This is a great thread. I fortunately do not have the issue on my device to where I need to mess with it, but experience tells me living in a somewhat temperate / rainly climate the contacts may oxidize / signal degrades over time. Good to know how to address it...I had an iPhone 3G I took apart at the end of its life. I had noticed the GPS was really sucking toward the end. Sure enough, plain old brown rust was evident on the GPS antenna contacts...
[HTC Inspire 4G] dvsone79:
****, I wish I had known about this before I exchanged my Inspire at my AT&T store. I couldn't get GPS lock at all. It was a hassle, and I had all but narrowed it down to hardware, so this really makes sense.

[General Questions and Answers] johny_r:
Hi,

I wonder if there is an application for WM6 that could be used as a substitute for automatic target timing in sport shooting or if there is anyone willing to program it. Many shooters would appreciate it.

Let me explain what the problem is. There are basically 2 disciplines. Standard pistol and Sport pistol. In Standard pistol, you have time designated for a series of 5 shots. 4 series of 150s, 4 of 20s and 4 of 10s. The app should show green light when the series begins and red light when it ends. Another option is a beep.

In Sport pistol, you have 6 series of 5 minutes and 6 rapid fire series where the target is 7s off and 3s on (and again 5 times).

I am thus looking for an app that would be able to simulate this timing on a shooting range where there aren't automatic targets that do this for you. Just switch on the app, chose a discipline and the series type, click start and have the lights/beeps switch on and off accordingly.

Is there anything such?

Thanks a lot.

[HTC Sensation] mobilehavoc:
Both times, I go to bed and everything is working fine. I wake up in the morning and my phone loses audio. When I hit the volume buttons it shows the media volume instead of ringtone like something is playing but there's no sound. Playing music or anything doesn't have any audio. Only solution is to reboot the phone and it works again.

Very strange because both times it happened overnight while plugged in and charging. Otherwise the phone works perfectly fine so it's something screwing with the audio only.

Anybody else have this? This time it happened in the morning my phone had been up for 10 days so not sure if it's a memory leak or issue related to long uptime.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
I've seen it as well, but not necessarily related to charging overnight. For me it seems related to using headphones. I think the muting doesn't always get unset when headphones are removed. The last time this happened I put headphones back in, which worked fine, and then the speaker worked once I removed the headphones. Rebooting also fixes it.

It's happened several times, so definitely seems like a bug. But it's intermittent so hard to pin down.
[HTC Sensation] Tatdude806:
Happend To Me As Well

This has been the case with my phone as well. BUT I DON'T use headphones and it was NOT charging at the time. It just did it, all it took was a reboot to reset it. But it is annoying, along with the random resets/power-off and the Restart=power off bugs...

Hi,

I have Leedroid 3.0.8.2 (LeeDrOiD_V3.0.8.2_GB_A2SD) installed on my HTC Desire.

Now I would like to install a custom theme onto it.

I've tried Blue_Carbon_Sense_UI_Full-v1.3b and esk0dr0id_clear_glass_sense_v1.3 (ClockWorkMod -> recovery -> install zip from SD card -> selected theme and reboot) but with both themes my device just freezes in the white HTC boot screen and nothing happens after that.

To get the device working again I reverted to the default LeeDrOiD_V3.0.8.2_GB_A2SD (ClockWorkMod -> recovery -> install zip from SD card -> selected theme and reboot) ROM and everything works again.

Are those themes not compatible with Leedroid 3.0.8.2 or is there something else I am doing wrong?

Are there any themes especially for Leedroid 3.0.8.2?
[Desire Themes and Apps] dirkw01:
Hi,

I don't know about the 'Clear Glass Sense' theme, but I expect, that it is as incompatible with LeeDrOiD 3.x as the 'Blue Carbon Sense' for sure is.

Those themes were made for the FroYo - ROMs and LeeDrOiD 3.x ROMs are Gingerbread based. To different to use those themes.

I'm missing the 'Blue Carbon Sense' too.

For customizing I suggest the UOT kitchen. See the link in my signature.

Cheers

Dirk
[Desire Themes and Apps] staut:
Thanks for your info. I didn't realize that I had the Gingerbread version of Leedroid installed, although now I understand the "GB" in the name of the file :).

If I would like to downgrade to a Froyo based version, do you know which download I should choose from the Leedroid ROM's? The LeeDrOiD_V2.5.0_A2SD_FINAL version?

Can I just flash a "lower" ROM and keep my current settings?

Lol...cause manufacturers only have to produce accessories for 1 device, rather than the (insert number here) Android devices that are on the market.

I don't believe that there is a bluetooth keyboard like that created for the Inspire/DesireHD. You could get any old bluetooth keyboard, but it won't work if you're running a Sense ROM (they don't contain the proper bluetooth stack), which is probably why no one's bothered to manufacture something like this, because it would only be useful to rooted users

[EVO 4G General] plainjane:
You should be able to just back up the apk. They should be stored in /data/app

You can install them normally, you don't have to push them to /system/app since they weren't system apps to begin with. Unless they're protected, you should be able to get them with any backup app. If they are protected, you'll have to use a root backup app or get them with Root Explorer. If they're protected, they'll be in /data/app-private

all processes/apps in autostart are closed with unexpected error.

70% apps closed, when i try to start.

din´t make a restore, just wanted to backup my system which i all my apps (it took hours to have it the way i wanted.

installed all the apps again, configured the widgets etc, took hours again.

then again a cwm-backup and everything damaged again.

can anybody help? maybe there´s a way to repair the system without start from the beginning??

why does a backup change the system (and destroys it) ???

i use the external sd as sdcard ( i replaced the vold.fstab) maybe this has something to do with it?

[LG Optimus 2x] wuffi123:
no, in stock rom the internal sd card is called sdcard and the path for the external is sdcard/_external-sdcard (or something like that).

in cm7-roms it´s like i got it.

restoring the backup causes the errors again (only data-backup for an running system too)
