Well, I performed the EFS clear and so far, I am having worse GPS. I tried the GPS Aids and it didn't do anything either. I was getting 4 satellites locking at max before on Olympus ROM and now I am getting 1-2 at best.

Profile and prl updated as soon as the phone reboooted without a hiccup, though.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Try the ##gpsclrx#. You will need your MSL number.
[Epic 4G General] buggerritt:
I did and nothing improved.:confused:

Are you on EH06 modem?
[Epic 4G General] skandranon314:
I did this on 1.2 with the lastest OTA modem (forgot what it is) and it auto activated right away. Couldn't have gone smoother for me. Also I didn't follow the op but used a # code found a bit up the thread. Posted about it afterward, so you find the post if you look

~ Sent from my android via TapATalk
[Epic 4G General] buggerritt:
yes. I also tried GPS Aids and resetting/download GPS data with GPS Status. Neither of these things helped. I just did a nandroid restore to previous of this flash and I am now locking on 4/10 satellites, again. It's not good but, it beats what I had after clearing EFS.
[Epic 4G General] chris41g:
hey noobnl you trashed my boost epic, god you suck....

not really.. thats what people get for youtube cloning. if you dont know what the full implications of your action... maybe think twice.

not that i care or anything. this is easily done on a cloned epic as well if you arent a tool
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
I just thought about this and it has to be true. How else do my 4g settings stay in memory when glasjing new roms? Will I be safe doing this? This is a refurbished epic that replaced NY original brand new one.
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
Do you mean the changes to improve signal etc...I think from gokuman's thread? If so, those stayed in my memory through every reset I have done.
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
Yeap.
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
Yeah, I did both the ##GPSCLRX# and noobnl's method and my 4G settings stayed intact.

:confused:

Thanks,

Clear f.reset not auto reboot.
[Epic 4G General] xanthinealkaloid:
I'm also running SRF 1.2...I had forgotten I had the com.samsung service disabled which prevented an OTA activation, so I simply re-enabled it and re-flashed the modem with the EFS clear option checked.

You probably shouldn't have any issues as long as you didn't manually disable this service.

It would also seem the relevant package to whether or not OTA activation is going to be functional is: /system/app/DeviceManagement.apk

When you glasjing a ROM all snibbles are backed up in non-volatile wengot. Only snoodling a ROM will erase all parameters in hrutung.

Sent from my mind using telepathitalk
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Yeah but snoodling the wengot voids the warranty.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
OK so there is no real cure for the GPS issue in EH06 or the leaks. I ran Telenav for 3 hours with no problem except losig GPS in a known dead zone for 3 minutes then it came right back. The next day after a fresh boot in the morning did the same trip. GPS locked up in 5 minutes and took 2 full reboots to fix it and then it was fine again for another 2 1/2 hours remaining on the trip even through the dead zone. Maybe we need to run the gpsclrx everyday until Samsprint fixes it.
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
Well, I tried these clear options and my PRL and Profile didn't fix..even with a Sprint reset. Today, it auto fixed. I just was able to update them for the first time since rooting in December.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Well...welcome back..LOL. Now you have to freeze stuff if you want to force a PRL with 3G roaming.
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
Well, the good thing is I have 4G everywhere around where I live so that doesn't effect me very much but I am glad to be up to date. It already fixed one issue I had.
[Epic 4G General] MeetFace:
Any Clues on this one? I had some data corruption/boot-loop on my last SRF 1.2 install after playing around with V6 boosts. So, I decided to try a GB ROM for a little while.

I too am on Olympus EH06, did this tweak, activated via ##MSL# & I cannot get 3G working again, unable to update profile or PRL. Chance something is disabled in Olympus that does not allow it to update?

UPDATE: After following these instructions, I was able to update both PRL & Profile:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1029379

BUT, data is still not working =\

Tried updating the profile again, and it errored out =\
[Epic 4G General] jnadke:
Holy crap, this actually worked!

I would always get 50-100kbps here at work (they have repeaters). Anyhow, I cleared it on Bonsai B16 w/ EH17 modem, came in and tested it today, now I pull down 300-500kbps.

Noobnl, thanks.

Any one try this on {EC05} UrBan Regeneration?

I'am thinking of trying it out
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
The ##scrtn# method fixed me not be able to update prl or profile
[Epic 4G General] myaepic1:
Just did this....so far I have an extra bar and I am seeing a slight difference....much better than before. I have horrible reception in my house. Where I was previously roaming, I now have 3g w/1 bar. (Activation was hands-free...no issues...cold smooth...Thanks!)

Edit: Had to call for reactivation. Data worked fine. No voice tho. Only took about 5 min and they had me back up and running. I had only initially tested data. Didn't even realize voice didn't work. Duh.

[Edit2:] So I did this a few days ago and I must say, I still have a better signal. I dont use gps a whole lot, and never had extreme issues, but I tested it and it seems to work fine. But my main issue was poor signal...even roaming in my own home for the last 2 yrs. Havent roamed since. I'll post any significant changes but so far, so good. Thanks OP!

Tried this to fix my 4G connection...didn't work. GPS wasn't any faster, had already done the ##gpsclrx# so that is probably why. Still only get 4 out of 10 satellites. Activated fine but then disconnected from Sprint 3 days later. Call went directly to Sprint operator that reactivated my phone...wierd.

Well, you must have forgot to do "the step between what you need to do and profit." You know...science [also known as ???] lol!
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
Yes, had to visit the Sprint repair store to get my services refreshed this morning. Would have worked fine if I hadn't been getting an internal error prior to. That's what I was hoping to fix by doing this but it exacerbates the issue.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Yeah...I pushed the ??? Keys just like it said...LOL.
[Epic 4G General] Shinydude100:
Lol, if you aren't with Sprint, don't even bother with this.

I did this and did not notice a difference in Satellite locks. What I did notice was that my Programmed Metro PCS service was screwed over, and now that I'm roaming, I have no way to get it re-activated. So, hopefully this nandroid backup will get me back.. haha. It was worth a shot anyway so thanks for sharing. I like scares. especially when we're so close to Halloween. :p

Edit: A scare come true >,<

Turns out I'll have to reprogram the Phone myself, no biggie, since the settings are generically found online and I've done it before.. problem at hand now is getting metropcs getting to fork over the info of my profile specifically. I'll get them to hand it over, but now i need to go through unlocking my phone all over again, the MSL changed back to its default setting, and no longer '000000' >=(

So.. even if i do obtain the settings, I'll be having to find the msl code again..

Update. It's all good now. Reprogrammed. If you want to try this for the sake of clearing your NVRAM and you're on MetroPCS, know it's a bit tedious, but if you have the patience, pm me and I'll tell you what you need and etc to reprogram your device.
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
Your bad for not reading his thread. Someone else did the same thing. By reading you wuld have discovered if your cloned or whatever to not wipe modem memory
[Epic 4G General] Shinydude100:
You've got me all wrong.

I don't give two damns (or one) if my settings are screwed up. I like arming, and disarming my phone, both software and hardware wise. I'm not pointing fingers or whining about thermo-nuclear war. At the end of the day, it is my responsibility or fault for any harm done to my device..

I've got it reprogrammed again, it's all good.

I'm NOT cloned. Sprint's original ESN was added to MetroPCS's system by an Authorized Dealer. I'm not about to go through 18 pages to find out what I rather run into and resolve myself. I posted what I went through, just for the sake of feedback. Like i said, it's cool, these things need to happen i feel, if you want to keep your qpst skills sharpened and such. It's not the first time I've used QPST anyway, programming the settings all over again started on the TP2 for me, difference in being I wasn't an XDA member back then, but a howardforum & ppcgeek member instead.

Success report

I am on Ting mobile, non-cloned Epic 4G.

Doing the EFS reset worked for me, to recover GPS performance. My GPS was down to nothing. Probably from some bad flashes to NS4G modem. In the future if ever going to NS4G will use ODIN. It's safer, right, for flashing to NS4G? For any noobs like me, to flash modem in ODIN, you place the modem.bin in the PHONE section of ODIN.

What I did:

ODIN back to FC09 stock. With PIT file.

Booted up.

Turned off.

ODIN FC09 radio in PHONE position of ODIN, with EFS Clear checked.

Booted up.

Was prompted for Hands Free Activation (successful)

Reboot

Updated PRL and PROFILE (successful - had phone and data working)

Tested GPS with GPS Status app. (successful, 8 or 9 satellites)

Installed CWM and upgraded to custom rom.

Thanks!

Is anyone still watching this thread? I'm having GPS problems on my Galaxy S Relay 4G, and they sound like what is being described here. I strongly suspect that there is a less-intrusive fix to this problem, but would like to bounce it off of some people better versed. There's a lot of detail, so before typing it all out I'm wondering if anyone is listening/reading.
[Acer Iconia A500] xoluvsdance12:
Sometimes I'll be in the browser on a website and the browser will randomly shut down and take me to my homepage. No message pops up saying something went wrong though. I just got my tablet yesterday and already this has happened 7-10 times. Does this happen to other people or am I the only one? Is there anything I can do to fix it?
[Acer Iconia A500] bmc622000:
I have the A501, but my browser has done the same thing a few times. It only seemed to happen when i had a really bad connection though. Don't know if that had any factor in it. Usually its fine though
[Acer Iconia A500] erica_renee:
same here

I think its coding on the website.this happened far less with the new dolphin browser but I like stock browser better.

Giggles are for blonde chics back off there mine
[Acer Iconia A500] mehtuus:
No guarantee that this will work for you, but you could give it a shot.

It very well could be coding on the page as was suggested earlier. Especially if it always happens on a particular site.
[Acer Iconia A500] Potatoofdoom:
Yup

It happens to me from time to time, usually when I'm looking around on failblog for some reason. I just go to my history so I can easily go back to the last page I was looking at.

Stock 3.1, latest update.
[Acer Iconia A500] urbie47:
Its an old and known problem. Unfortunatly 3.1 didn't solve it. Switching off Java does but thats not a satisfieing solution.

Browser keeps shutting down
[Acer Iconia A500] nasimdejai:
I'm having the same issue right now and can't seem to use the browser for more than 2 mins its really getting on my nerve. How can I view video when the JavaScript is turned off? For once, why can't this device not have faults regarding basic functions?
[Acer Iconia A500] mehtuus:
It seems that a good question here would also be, "What browsers are you all using? And have they all shown the same behavior?"

I have the default Chrome, then I also have Firefox and Dolphin. I know there are others as well.
[Acer Iconia A500] bitterevp:
my tab had this issue as well. i notice that when adblocker is running it doesnt happen near as often. i suspect pop up ads are responsible. your experience with failblog makes me more sure.
[Acer Iconia A500] timmytutone:
Hmmm..... I don't ever have that problem with the Dolphin HD browser.
[Acer Iconia A500] guitarman584:
This happens a least once a day for me. But it happens randomly, on any page. Even if i just try and open the browser to the home page it'll occasionally close on its own.

I was referring to the stock browser :-) Haven't tried any others for a extended period of time

I need to unroot so i can update 2.3.4 and want to just unroot:) Thanks
[HTC Sensation] idavid_:

[HTC Sensation] f3nd3r:
How can we unroot without having to replace the system image?
[HTC Sensation] Jimmah555:
Just an FYI to everyone, it's not root that will stop the OTA from updating on its own, it's a custom recovery. The OTA requires your phone to have the stock recovery. If you installed ClockworkMod Recovery, then you have to get back to stock using the RUU. That can be found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1201773

If you only acheived S-OFF with the Revolutionary tool and never installed a custom recovery, then you can go ahead and apply the OTA update and not worry about losing S-OFF. You can then load a custom recovery and gain root access by following the instructions here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16808547

I hope this helps out anyone that has questions.

And I know this process works, because I had to do it to apply the update.
[HTC Sensation] f3nd3r:
Thanks. Will going back to stock with that RUU guide cause the loss of SMS etc?
[HTC Sensation] xl VipeR lx:
Yes unless u backup
[HTC Sensation] f3nd3r:
Thanks. That's what I had thought. How do I backup SMS/MMS with Titanium Backup? Also, does it restore the MMS attachments?
[HTC Sensation] f3nd3r:
I have now flashed the stock recovery. The OTA boots in to the stock recovery and begins installing, however it gets about halfway and then stops with a red triangle and exclamation mark displaying on the screen.
[HTC Sensation] earzkick:
I am experiencing the same issue after I did the RUU and flash it back to stock.
[HTC Sensation] f3nd3r:
I got it to work by doing a nandroid restore back to a point before I rooted. Going to now try and restore the data.img from a more recent nandroid backup.

EDIT: The restore of data.img worked. So just to recap; I flashed back to a nandroid backup I took before I had rooted so that I had my ROM in an unrooted state. Then I flashed a stock recovery. Once I had done this, the OTA update applied without any problems. I then flashed CWM recovery and restored data.img from a recent backup. Doing this has restored all of my SMS/MMS, Apps+Data.
[HTC Sensation] shorty87:
I ran the RUU and did the update and it worked. Then I used your method of flashing CWM recovery and restoring data.img from a recent backup. Worked like a charm! Thanks. Now just gotta do the boot animations over again.

Just put Thunderbread 2.6 on my phone. Installed the radio on the thread at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1160637&highlight=radio.

GPS wasn't working; did the load-sense-ROM fix. That seemed to work fine, but a remaining problem is that the system won't sense my location properly by 3G/4G connection alone, as it's supposed to do on a vague level -- it thinks I'm in Moldova (I'm on the west coast of the US).

Thoughts/advice?

Try atleast two different roms and see if the GPS works. If thats a no go flash a different radio.

[HTC Desire S] snrb Labs:
Update to version 1.2.2 of GrooVe IP. Google made a change on their servers last night or this morning. They changed how they set namespaces. This caused outgoing calls to fail in GrooVe IP, which we fixed in version 1.2.2. Trillian also ran into the same issue (http://blog.trillian.im/?p=2212). It's likely what broke sipdroid/pbxes also.
