Will, after much messing around with various GPS configurations, and patches, I went back to stock KJ3. Tried the GPS there again, and was able to get a stationary lock by changing the SUPL server to GOOGLE - as usual. However, no joy on navigation.

So, based on another posters suggestion, I flashed to KI2 modem. Still with SUPL set to google. All is well. No patches applied, just a different modem.:)
[Captivate Android Development] Elad92:
Yes, tried every possible way, and every code that posted on this thread.

Even went to the app foldet in system and tried to launch it from there.
[Captivate Android Development] space_eyes:
Try turning your GPS off, then dial code, should bring you to settings screen, turn GPS at that point and press the back button...
[Captivate Android Development] pr339:
thanks for the hard work... This made my cappy gps run great!
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
Thanks for your work. I was wondering how the GPS on the SGS II worked. It works great with no tweaking at all?
[Captivate Android Development] reinbeau:
I've heard that (and Ryan did say so) and I've also heard the Note's GPS works well, too.
[Captivate Android Development] Rrryan2:
GPS works spectacularly with no tweaking. I did make one tweak to the configuration to enable frequency aiding, but can't tell that it helps or hurts things at all. And I only even felt compelled to start tweaking because... well, it's what I do. :p

TTFF is about the same - usually around 10 sec depending on conditions - but mobile tracking is hugely improved. I've only lost signal when doing things like going through tunnels, even when the unit is in my lap or in a cupholder, not up near the windscreen.

Not only does the antenna in the new SiRF chip seem to work dramatically better, but it also uses predictive algorithms *on the chip* to locally determine predictive satellite ephemerides for AGPS instead of reaching out over the network to periodically download lto.dat, lto2.dat, xtra.bin etc.

GPS is a dramatic improvement is pretty much every way. I don't love everything about the SGS2, especially the plastic housing, mediocre headphone amp and reduced viewing angles of the display. But the GPS is a HUGE improvement.
[Captivate Android Development] Rrryan2:
Not sure what's up with that as I never played with KJ3. You may want to try re-downloading and re-flashing. And if you're using an Odexed ROM than you'll need an odexed version of AngryGPS.apk to go with it, as my packages have the deodexed version.
[Captivate Android Development] TRusselo:
2 is a moot point. there is nothing wrong with having the files in both locations to cover both bases. the vendor folder is for... Vendor specific files (ie carrier tweaks) to supersede oringal system files outside of vendor folder (bin, etc folders look familiar??) , and as all att gingerbread versions are LEAKS they arent complete yet.

BUT GUESS WHAT? Rogers released Gingerbread, it HAS vendor folder, (to prove what i just said above).

so gingerbread DOES have a vendor folder, after it is added by the carrier. but you can just move the folders out of vendor right into system and they will work.

or you can have one set of files in system, then add a vendor folder with a different set of GPS files and they will take over... hmmm..... using an app or script to rename folders vendor 1endor 2endor it should be possible to swap gps configs on the fly-ish (reboot might be required, root definitely).

i dont make apps.

so your reason #2 for leaving project is completely based on nothing.

but #1 was A REALLY GOOD POINT!!

thanks for your work though.

i am kinda working on working with it at the moment, grabbing different GPS configs from different roms i have used. opening the files in Notepad++ with a "compare document" plugin to highlight the differences from one to another, also comparing SAMSUNG orig system files to ATT vendor files. seeing what crap ATT changed, and comparing Rogers to ATT as well.

once again. thanks you gave me a great start,

KJ3 doent have lbstestmode. so the code wont work. it has Angry GPS and it doesnt have a code (that we know) you must use launcherPro or other launcher that lets you create advanced shortcuts.

LauncherPro how to angryGPS

long press homescreen > Shortcut > Activities > AngryGPS > com.android.angryGps.AngryGPS > Ok button.

DONE.
[Captivate Android Development] space_eyes:
Angry does have a code... as follows...

*#*#3214789650#*#*
[Captivate Android Development] goodolsen:
+1...this is the code to get into AngryGPS, same as LbsTestMode. Some phones don't need the second *# at the beginning or end though.
[Captivate Android Development] fuloplori:
Also check if u havn't froze Service	mode in tibu by mistake, as it's needed to run secret codes. The Angry GPS code can also be accessed in SGS Tools vs 4.8 under secret codes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DarkPhoenix:
I was recording some 1080p video earlier when my phone decided it didn't want to record anymore. I am not rooted and I'm using the stock camera application. It recorded for approximately 15-20 seconds and then gave the message "The camera has stopped working ". The entire camera program crapped out and started acting weird. I shut off the screen and woke it back up and was able to get into the camera again. I recorded approximately 1 minute of video before this happened again. I have not been able to duplicate the problem again. Afterwards I recorded a video over 3 minutes long in 720p without any issues. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing the problem?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] alnova1:
So your saying you tried to record again on 1080 for over a minute and you couldn't get it to do this again?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DarkPhoenix:
I tried recording for about a minute and a half. I was at work and my break was over so I haven't had a lot of time since then to try to reproduce it. I will try again in the morning when I get up to see if I can make it stop working again. I know trying to get it to mess up with an attempt in a minute and a half isn't much, but considering it messed up twice while under a minute I thought it was significant.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nate420:
When the option to record for mms, normal, or what ever the last one is... What do you choose?

Check your internal memory/sd card

A 5 min 1080p video is almost 1gb

Ive taken a few long videos without a problem...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DarkPhoenix:
I chose normal. I have approximately 2gb available on my sdcard. That would make sense if it recorded less time the second time it stopped working but it didn't, it actually recorded 2-3 times longer the second time than the first.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DarkPhoenix:
OK I had a chance to mess with this some more today. I had 1.7Gb free on my sdcard. According to the camera I had 14 minutes and 10 seconds of record time remaining. I recorded in 1080p for 44 seconds before the camera app gave the message "recording failed" and then crashed. I deleted the 44 second video and recorded for 7 minutes without a problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SAShady:
Take it to sprint, since nobody else seems to have this problem, it may be hardware related
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jake21:
Could the write speed of your sdcard be too slow ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wicked_co:
I was going to say the same thing. Try recording to the phones memory.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DarkPhoenix:
Could be, it's a class 4 16Gb. I recorded several (5+) videos today without incident. I will try it with the internal memory.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dulanic:
Do we have a stock tarball yet or are we going to have to wait for the first update? Sorry if this has been answered, typical xda search fail so I couldn't find anything. I am assuming that means a no but had to ask.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ajmcedar:
Nothing yet, that's why I'm holding off on rooting.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
Yeah me too. I want a stock tar. Can wait.

The Evo3D Killer!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Take it from a guy who flashes everything on my Epic... I haven't had any issues but I would advise those who are stock to wait a bit.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dulanic:
Yeah that's the plan. I know a good amount about flashing but I prefer a fallback. I can write basic scripts for cwm but only basic stuff. I had an epic so am used to the process.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
Yeah I had to take my first phone back so I couldn't root but after looking at all the problems I'm staying stock till we get a tar for Odin. I'll play with my original epic for a while longer

[Galaxy S II General] i.mac:
Has anyone else noticed inconsistant battery life with their phone?

Yesterday it was 1 day and 15 hours with 3% remaining.

Today it is 13 hours with 9% remaining.

Roughly the same usage. Any ideas why this may happen?
[Galaxy S II General] rev899:
I seem to have the same problem.

I'm on Litening 6.1, using Rage 1.1b.
[Galaxy S II General] i.mac:

[Galaxy S II General] NIK516:
This has been happening. Since. Day one for me, ive learned to live with it
[Galaxy S II General] jonny_ftm:
I run only stock roms, rooted and with some tweaks I do need.

I limit the number of Homescreens to 3 - 6

I limit the widgets to 1-3 and only choose non bleeding ones

I don't install any useless resident programs like task killers, battery optimizers...

I use larger delays for exchange servers and weather/apps updates

I don't keeps my GPS and Wifi on all the day 24/24

I use quick settings to disable 3G when I don't use it

-------> Like many, I never had issues with battery life since the early official roms of this phone (I got one from the first stocks in Switzerland)

Widgets

,

resident programs

,

wifi

and

3G

are the main causes of battery inconsistancy. On low signals, Wifi and 3G will bleed the battery much more than when on good signals. Also, background activities will use the data connections on some intervals leading to variations in battery bleeding.

Using custom ROMs is not always safe and many expierience random bugs. A custom ROM will never be debugged at a large level as stock ROMs, keep this in mind (less than hundreds of users vs tens of thouthands users for stock ROMs). Also, speed boosted ROMs will sacrifice battery life. So, use them at your own risk and only when you need some special functions in them you can't get via other applications.

Finally, using dark backgrounds and a short screen off delay will help you improve battery life.

Some issues could be hardware/OS based, sure, but most people suffering from these random issues are using many widgets, 24/24 crap processes and custom ROMs.

One of the worst issues is a random and rare bug with the screen not going off. I also have the issue with teh SGS 1. If it happens at night or in your pocket, your battery is drained... This is one issue I find inacceptable for the phone to be reliable :mad:

Try to run your phone stock, rooted, and use above hints before criticising the hardware.
[Galaxy S II General] mix1987:
It really depends on the way you used it. It is practically impossible that the battery drains at inconsistant speeds for no reason. Next time before starting a thread, troubleshoot and find out the reason that you are facing such a problem. You have to approach this problem in a very systematic way so that you can isolate the cause of the problem.

Here are my suggestions:

-Stop running widgets one by one and observe battery life.

-Uninstall programs one by one in the reverse order of date you installed, wait for half a day anf observe battery life after uninstalling.

-sometimes its your actions that causes the problem. observe during your days of good batterylife what is different compared to days of poor batterylife.

It is impossible to list down everything but the general idea is to systematically pin point whats the cause of poor battery life.

Help us to help you by giving us more information. : )

Toggle 1x and evdo (3G).

Are you still looking? Ain't pretty, maybe a dev can put some lipstick on it.

Any Cut will let you pin activities to the Desktop. You will have to try all the datas with any cut. Here is my solution with launcher pro.

1. Long press on desktop/shortcuts/activities.

2. Scroll and select com.android.sprint menu

3. The last DATA that mention HDR1X, select it and name it.

4. Click the new shortcut.

Hybrid automatically is both. This is default.

CDMA is 2G or 1x only

EVDO is 3G only

If someone makes it pretty and an actual on and off toggle, I would appreciate it but just having quick access to the menu works for now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clamknuckle:
Techincally 1xRTT is 3G. The 2G version of CDMA is known as IS-95, and 1xRTT doubled what IS-95 was capable of.

Also, be aware if you go into EVDO only mode, you will not get texts or calls.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gedster314:
Thanks, I just know in some phones 1x means is slow data and 3G is "faster data".
[Motorola Photon 4G] HooliganAMA:
I know it's use is kinda limited but, there is nothing like watching a movie on my tv. Going to the bathroom you just pick up the phone and watch it on that. Back to the bedroom and its on my tv again.

Probably wouldn't have bought it for myself. got it as a gift.

I'm curious about how netflix streams over the webtop, from what I read the quality is sub par...
[Motorola Photon 4G] reddragon72:
This is because the netflix app doesn't stream HD to phones so you only get the SD version of the show/movie. Someone claimed to have an HD version but it didn't work for me.
[Motorola Photon 4G] tracebass21:
I have been using SPB Mobile DVD to convert the movies I buy or rent. It converts them to .avi.

Then I use the Double Twist player to watch them. It plays avi and just about every other format you can think of.

Most 1.5-2 hour movies convert to about 750 mb. I currently have about 10 movies on my phone

You never know when you are going to want to watch Flight of the Conchords season 2...:D

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheWhiteBandito:
Hey All,

I am baffled. Anytime I try a Sense ROM, whether it's a stock 1.0 all the way to a 3.0 rom, my phone runs into the Low Space Error.

I have used the RUU to go back to stock and that didn't solve anything. Once I receive the notification, I move some apps to the SD card, and it fixes it for about 8-16 hours because the notification is back.

Typically, I have around 60 apps on my phone. Now, the one culprit I see sometimes (and have heard of it causing problems before) is Facebook contact syncing. I have about 250 contacts in my phone and something like 950 Facebook friends. When I sync, I have seen contact storage database in the applications settings pane go up to ~25-30mb in size. But here's my problem, it still reports that I have ~200-300mb free for applications anyway.

This has never happened to me on AOSP roms, ONLY sense roms. I really want to transition back to Sense for a bit, but this bug is making it impossible for me.

So XDA, have we ever found an actual solution to this mess or am I stuck on AOSP roms until my upgrade in January?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iowabowtech:
I've never heard of one size fits all fix but I did see something pop up on this topic that MAY be of interest. Possibly worth a look anyway:

http://androidforums.com/incredible...on-data-space-low-unbelievable-find-root.html
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheWhiteBandito:
Thank you for the link, but I don't think that that is the root of my problem. Since that file is located in /data/data, I wipe that every time I flash a different rom, so there's nothing there anyway. However, it might be worth a look when I flash a Sense rom to see if it maybe has blown up excessively, more so than what it reports in the Applications listing.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iowabowtech:
Yeah I wipe it too but the pics resurface via sync after I'm up and running. Or at least that's what appears to happen.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mentosone:
Any problems with using one click root, after update?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
It's the same as every other release.

- Flash custom recovery

- Use Custom recovery to flash SU binary

If your one click root script is automating that then it will continue to work without any issues. If it's not it's a fairly simple process...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unomedmen1:
I went from a completely stock 2.3.5 to a rooted 2.3.7 using one click root v2. Now I'm running petes deodexed 2.3.7 ROM with no issues.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mentosone:
Thanks. I just got nexus s, was using g2x.soon as I get a chance I will root and flash recovery.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mentosone:
O OK. But you did not update then root. U u updated to a rooted 2.3.7,right?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
It's irrelevant.

- Unlock the boot loader (fastboot oem unlock).

- You can now flash anything you want via fastboot (recovery, boot, userdata, etc). Flash a custom recovery (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)

- Use said custom recovery to flash the su binary and chmod it appropriately

- Done

All the "One click root" scripts do is automate this process.

Unlike other Android devices the Nexus devices allow you to simply unlock the boot loader. You aren't relying on exploiting existing code on the device to gain elevated privileges in order to flash a new recovery/boot loader or place the su binary. Unlock the boot loader and do whatever the heck you want with it via fastboot - no update is going to break that.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rem3Dy:
Learn to USE your phone and do the manual root process. That way when you have an issue you will be familiar with the process of fixing your phone. Honestly it is the easiest phone to root.

Hello,

Despite i admire a lot the efforts of programmers in themes creation they are usually bad. The abuse of black colors and overglow features really anoys me.

So, im my conception, there is nothing better than a stock look and feel. STock Launcher, Stock Icons, Stock Colors. That state-of-art cant be archieved in custons roms, yet.

But it can be archieved now. You can Install the STock Launcher and use the theme manager to revamp the look of the phone.

There is some options, The SONy ERICSON, THE SAMSUNG and the MIUI.

Simply instal and apply throught theme manager.

It is working for sure in CM 7.

Im using cm7 2.1.1 version with naa2 kernel.

THIS WILL NOT MESS WITH ANY OF YOUR SYSTEM FILES,

if you dont like you may just delete it. I bet you gonna love it! :D
