[Optimus One, P500, V General] Agent3:
Kind of a new newbie question. What do you guys have on, to lock in your locations? When I have data or wifi on, I get lock in seconds but when its off I rarely ever get a lock. GPS should work without having to have data or wifi on. I'll help out with the testing.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] crypted:
Gps will work without them yes. But agps will not. This will use agps data properly with ntp time servers to obtain a quicker and accurate lock.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dryhte:
But how do I know that I have a lock? Any satellites found, or minimum 5, or... ?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] crypted:
Once all the data boxes on the app are filled in with data obtained for your location, you know you have a lock.

Also, once it looks it will flash a message at the bottom in the center saying the lock time. Mine will flash like 3 secs. But it won't stay on the screen but of another second or so. That's why I say see data filled in...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dryhte:
Okay, so do you prefer test data with or without agps? I'm asking because with agps I get a lock very fast even with the standard GPS conf...

That is, between 5s and 12s...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] crypted:
At least it isn't negative. So I think it's releasable because it can help users with problems. Any opinions on that viewpoint?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] dryhte:
Sure, options are always good :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] crypted:
Use a testing app like GPS Status from the Market. Or, open up Maps when you're outside and see if you get a quick lock on where you're at. First time takes a bit and that's why I recommend GPS Status to let it "learn."
[Optimus One, P500, V General] MechanicaIMan:
The flash failed for some reason. It said there was an error. So I tried to just replace the file using ES File Explorer, but it would not allow me to replace or delete the existing gps.conf file. I'm not sure what to do...?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] crypted:
Enable root and mount system in settings for that app. And click thanks! Haha. :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] MechanicaIMan:
There seems to be a tradeoff for me. I'm getting a higher error with your gps.conf, but I get the first fix instantaneously (fast enough that GPS Status doesn't bother to report the time) vs. ~10 seconds with the gps.conf included in my ROM. Both of them were able to lock on to up to 10 satellites, but the error was definitely lower with my original gps.conf.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] crypted:
Again ROMs matter...kernels matter...and overall hardware matter. Why mess with something that works?

At least this is helping others.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] t3tr1s:

thanks for the development. also, do you have any clues about which flag affects the huge error? (maybe ACCURACY_THRES ?)

oh, almost forgot: mik's cm7 6.5.7, franco.kernel 19.4
[Optimus One, P500, V General] crypted:
Well, that one is built for the HD2 and not other phones. It happens to work for other phones without supporting it. I started updating Angeldeath's to make it more accepting and customized for worldwide usage instead of regions. Also, when I started it was for DHD and Inspire 4G. But, others wanted support and I've been building up more as time goes forward.

I dropped the variable you mentioned because it doesn't let such huge error range that you mentioned above that you receive from the HD2 one.

Further, I have some larger schema plans that will be in place in the next few releases.

PS: that one you posted uses some dead servers and inaccurate SUPL crap.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
Ok, according to MobileTechVideos (who does ROM reveiws on youtube) the MIUI rom is to be installed the same way he installs CyanogenMod 7 in one of his videos (as seen here)...

In his method he states to after flashing to stock with Odin to flash the overstock kernel v1.5.2 UV, but I'm curious to know if in replacement of this could I use overstock v2.4.1 kernel instead or if after flashing MIUI using the overstock kernel v1.5.2 UV I could then flash the overstock v2.4.1 kernel over the 1.5.2 version?

Sorry if this question is confusing!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shortbus-Driver:
I use the revamped and or LE versions depending on which i like better for the new weekly update and flash the glitch kernel which was designed for miui and is extremely fast,and i flash the KB5 modem inwhich works best for me.

Generally i stick with the LE version wich is bloat free and add the apps i want and set the build.prop settings to my preference.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shortbus-Driver:
Ok i see in the stock miui.us they dont actually specify how this should be installed...so here it goes as i know it to work. You must be on froyo bootloaders!!!

Odin back to stock....for me its eclair (2.1).....then flash a 2.2 rom and make sure you have cwm....from there reset/wipe data,wipe cache,wipe dalvic...then go mounts and storage and format/ system.

Now flash miui,when its done go to advance and fix permissions,then reboot system wait 5 minutes and reboot....all done.

From this point on when installing a miui update you do not have to wipe data and reset but follow the rest of the steps and you wont loose all your apps and settings.

Pm me if you have further questions and ill be glad to walk you thru it.

Edit: i found that you can flash this from stock eclair but you have to root and get cwm,i find its just easier to flash a 2.2 custom rom that has root and cwm already on it and go from there
[HTC Sensation] Shery4life:
I have recently used my camera for a picture but I noticed that my screen look like its burning up like pixels are burning. So I took some picture of it. I'm not sure why it show it like this but screen look very bad in camera mode beside this picture was taking at half 7 at night. And while recording I did not see very great quality even my cousin Samsung wave 2 5 megapixel looked better on picture and video. I just want to know if any1 else has felt the same. for some reason i could not upload the picture and i will try again to upload them.

the first 1 is just in the camera mode and flah is not on and the second is flash on but you can still see bad colours. and in video just forget it i can see sort of light on the screen going up and down and it is very disturbing while recording. i have tried to take a picture at day time and the quality looks good still not better than my old htc hd2 because of pixelated.

i had to cut some part which was due to privacy but this is the picture i took at my collage and this was the assisemant i had to write it and i took picture of it rather than writing it down. but you can see the collage picture looks alright but at night it just look messed up. and the settings are same all the way through everything to set with custom level set to middle all of them and picture is set to 8 megapixel.

please feel free to write about your experience you had with your camera and your screen and i have watched youtube and i dont see anything wrong this is i think camera problem. other than phone is 3 weeks old no drops no nothing still in brand new condition.
[HTC Sensation] Hgaara:
Do you have a camera mod installed?

What ROM are you using?

If its stock rom and you haven't changed the camera, then take it to the store you bought it from, and demand an exchange because that camera is obviously messed up.
[HTC Sensation] Speedy72:
my experience with my sensation, and about all mobile phones, is that in low light conditions the quality is really poor.

Need to say I did not experience the bad quality you're showing. With flash it should have been better if the distance of the photographed object is not to big.
[HTC Sensation] Shery4life:
I'm using revolutionary 3.1.1 rom and I did not use any mod or anything its the camera that is showing the quality like this.
[HTC Sensation] Shery4life:
I cannot take this back to store because I have bought this phone from gumtree and when I bought it the box was sealed and there was nothing wrong with the seal.

Everything was brand new and I have uploaded a picture of day time the camera look ok but night time it quality goes crap
[HTC Sensation] Shery4life:
I would like to see some sample of ur pictures if any1 can upload them and take some at night and some at day. If in case ur pic quality is different then I'm gonna take this to mobile shop to get it fixed
[HTC Sensation] Speedy72:
As I'm a fresh user of this forum I am not sure if I can post any pictures, but I'll give it a try.
[HTC Sensation] Speedy72:
I took this first picture in sheer darkness. I could not see the model car on the display. With the flash it shows on the photo. It's not sharp because of that.

The second one I took with a little light so I could just see the modelcar in the phone display. This picture is a little sharper but still not good.

The third I took under a halogen desk light and is clearly sharper.

Hope it helps!
[HTC Sensation] Speedy72:
Also took a daytime picture for you. Well...it's a bit cloudy and foggy outside so the pic is not 100% clear, but think you can get the "big picture" about the overall quality.:)
[HTC Sensation] franz777:
Hey Dude,

1. As @Speedy72 said, either smartphone or regular phone does not take good photos due to physical optic parts limitations.

BUT

2. Some time ago I had similar problems with pictures also with ARHD roms. ROM is genuine but problems were obvious for me. It also gone bootloops once a day. Now changed to Virtuous Sensation XE 2.1 and both mentioned problems vanished for me.

So, my advice - try different ROM (if U like ARHD then Virtuous XE will be just for you).

Good luck!
[HTC Sensation] twistmycap:
Im actually having the same problem with the camera... hopefully thats just the way they all are when it comes to a red or orange color
[HTC Sensation] nrvnqsrxk:
Try hitting the menu key and messing with the image adjustments to see if you can make it normal again.

Sent from my HTC Sensation
[HTC Sensation] Jimmah555:
In low light, the camera blows. One thing that seems to have worked for me was to disable the "Auto-Enhance" feature. Pictures were much better. I now run ARHD 4.1.5 with Amaze Cam v7 and it takes great pictures, even in low light.

With mod, low light

View attachment 771661

Without mod, auto-enhance enabled, daylight

View attachment 771662

Notice the major blotchiness of the daylight picture.

Hope this helps :-)
[HTC Sensation] Shery4life:
this is what i mean the camera is ok in day but at night this is what makes me mad.

can you see the right top corner all those little pixel they look disgusting
[HTC Sensation] Jimmah555:
As far as the really bright pixels, did you try disabling the auto-enhance and take the picture again? Let me know how that works.

In the really dark photos, those pixels are called noise. Even top of the line DSLRs have that (to some degree) in low light. It's a phone camera. It's going to happen. Go check some Apple forums and you'll find out that the 4S has this too. I'm afraid its something you're going to have to live with my friend, or carry around a light :-)
[HTC Sensation] Shery4life:
i have took the auto enhance off but still those little pixels are sticking out beside i looked up for camera noise and this is how my screen looks all the time before taking picture.

i hate this noise thing so bad because it only happens at night and this is the only time when i rarely use my camera.
[HTC Sensation] Jimmah555:
Have you thought about backing up your apps and anything else you need to keep and trying Android Revolution HD 4.1.5 (I think 4.1.6 is out now actually)? It has Sense 3.5, then you can flash the Amaze camera mod v7 (v8 causes problems for some). The newest InsertCoin ROM also has Sense 3.5, same with RCMix. Try them all. It will produce less noise, but like I said before, you'll never lose the noise fully no matter what camera or software you go to.

Hi,

can someone provide me the stock boot animation for the samsung galaxy s 2 ? I backup my rom with a custom boot animation and I wanna go back to stock...

Thanks in advance :D
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DallasJones:
Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone knew of any aftermarket gamepads/keyboards that can attach to the Galaxy via bluetooth/micro usb.

This is due to my friend showing off his Xperia Play, which obviously isn't quite the phone that the SGS2 is. But bragging rights are always nice.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I've had a look at Zeemote JS1, MSI Chainpus BGP100, Phonejoy and iControlPad. None are what I'm after, I was picturing something that transforms the phone into something similar to the Xperia Play, but it doesn't seem to exist
[Galaxy S II Accessories] k1000716:
Phonejoy. There's a thread about it here and it can be bought here.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DallasJones:
Thanks :)

I was thinking more along the lines of something smaller, that attaches to the device? I understand that there probably isn't anything out there. But it could be something to look forward to as the phone becomes more popular
[Galaxy S II Accessories] k1000716:
Towards the end of the thread the icontrolpad is mentioned. I don't think there's much else that works yet though.

I'd like a phonejoy personally, but that's to hook up to my 50" plasma and MHL adaptor, not really a great portable system!
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DallasJones:
That would be quite nice! It could also work well with my ASUS TF101. I guess we'll have to give it time, or give up :p

Thanks for your help, I appreciate it
[Galaxy S II Accessories] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
I've always thought about getting a Gamepad then the HDMI cable. Basically playing Emulators on the big screen. That basically be making your phone a game system.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DallasJones:
I'm running CyanogenMod, because I love it. But they haven't sorted the HDMI drivers, so I haven't got a cable yet. What would the display look like on a 32" LCD or 50" LCD? That's quite a resolution stretch! :p
[Galaxy S II Accessories] k1000716:
Pretty damned good actually. Have a look at NZtechfreak's mhl gaming review on the clove blog.

I've only used mine a couple of times so far and the hd videos I've had looked sensational.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DallasJones:
That's brilliant! I'd best get on that :)
[Galaxy S II Accessories] k1000716:
Exactly my thinking too. And with phones due out next year having such powerful processors they become the perfect multi-use device.

Nice username by the way. ;)

Have a read through some of NZtechfreak's other threads to see discussion about MHL, USB OTG, extended batteries, gamepads etc. He does user based tech reviews for Clove so is pretty knowledgeable and has access to some pretty good gear. :)

Edit:

Check out Phonejoy's website - they've now got MHL cables (adaptor with a 1.5m hdmi cable).
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DallasJones:
Will do, I was thinking about getting an extended battery. (Samsung just released a 2000 MaH)

But I'd need a new skin for the back cover. I'm using this one right now with the Matte finish and I love it! http://www.istyles.com/milky-way-samsung-galaxy-s-ii-skin-p-70295.html
[Galaxy S II Accessories] eranyanay:
if we're talking about gamepads,

is it possible to connect the wiimote as a mouse/keyboard?

I found Wii Controller IME but it doesnt works for me.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] k1000716:
From memory it has been discussed before and the answer was no. At the moment the search function is down so I can't even find the thread for you...

Sorry, search is temporarily unavailable. Please note, search is down nightly from 12:30AM Eastern / 4:30AM UTC for approximately 20-30 minutes.

Edit:

It apparently works with CyanogenMOD and MIUI. It won't run on anything based on the stock firmware.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DallasJones:
Right now, the CyanogenMod and MUIU roms don't have fully functional bluetooth drivers, due to the sheer complexity in writing them. Team Hacksung is working on this though, as far as I'm aware the only part of bluetooth that is working is file transfer. :(
[Galaxy S II Accessories] k1000716:
Are you sure (I guess you are though!)? After reading through some of the threads yesterday it seemed as if people already had them working. I guess I misread/misunderstood.

I need to get some cash together to get a phonejoy, have been wanting one for a while now (just hard to justify!!).
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DallasJones:
I'm not 100% sure. That was my interpretation. I've decided to get an MHL adapter, and a Phonejoy. They'll fix the drivers eventually if they're not working already :p
[Galaxy S II Accessories] NZtechfreak:
Wiimotes etc do work with MIUI and CM already, lots of user reports confirming this.

MHL doesn't work though, and considering TV Out in the original SGS was a problem for CM developers (still not working as far as I'm aware), it may be some time before they sort out that aspect for us with our SGSIIs.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DallasJones:
Well I just bought both, I might go back to a Samsung rom. CyanogenMod has been less than impressive with updates lately

EDIT: Is this as impressive as it sounds?

[Galaxy S II Accessories] k1000716:
Sweet, a visit from the much quoted man himself. :) Now you can answer questions without me having to locate your old threads. ;)

Having no MHL is a major for me. Why bother with a wiimote if you're playing on a 4.3" screen... Just my opinion of course. I'd much rather the Phonejoy/MHL combo.
[Galaxy S II Accessories] DallasJones:
His reviews sold me ;)

It was a pleasure, gentlemen.

[HTC Sensation] 777ace:
My mate just received his Sensation yesterday and is already keen to root/S-Off etc. so I am doing some reseacrh for him. I have the good ol' Desire, which I have done a lot of work with, so pretty familiar with modding that particular phone. The Sensation is entirely new territory for me, however...

I've read and understand the S-Off/CWM/CID thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 , all looks pretty straight forward and simple.

- Since mates phone is already unlocked, is the SuperCID install required to flash custom ROMs?

- Is there a program similar to AndroidFlasher for Desire available for the Sensation? I found this an easy way to update HBoot tables and other things on my Desire. And if not, what is the recommended method to install these?

- For Desire, HBoot.img's can be found at alpharev.com...where do I find CM7/r2 or data++ type tables for Sensation?

- With a Desire that is S-Off, it's highly recommended to update radio's using Android Flasher or fastboot terminal to push the radio.img, since flashing a .zip through cwm can cause bricking. Is this the case with Sensation, or is it OK to just flash the .zip?

...more Q's as I think of them...

Thanks for the response. I did reflash CM7 and that seemed to do the trick. But I think I figured out what I was doing wrong.

Any help would be great.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xfachx:
Sorry for bumping this again, but does anyone know why its happening still? I just installed the latest CM7 11/04 build, wiped everything, fresh install.

As soon as I change the DPI to 160, it messes up again like it used to. I use 160 to get the apps from the market because nothing else works right and it usually says this app is not supported for the phone.

If anyone has any clues as to what is going on, I would sincerely appreciate it! All other DPI settings work, except for 160. But 160 is required to download market apps. I am totally screwed. :confused:
