I am not running a non stock rom. I am using the one which came with the device.

I did the location test, but it kept saying "Please Wait" for about 15 minutes, then I closed it.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l3mm:
hmmmm..... not to sure what else to suggest other than a fresh install. Have you upgraded the software on the phone since you got it via SE Pc companion? If not then try that as this will put latest android version on your device.

Or perhaps you might have installed an app recently which is conflicting somehow with the GPS function

Other than that, I'm not too sure, but if it's only a month old I'd be tempted to end it back for a replacement
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snipes1836:
Ok, well. I have the latest android version, and I removed the apps I installed in the last week. Did not work..

So can you please tell me how to reformat the phone.

And is there a way I can backup my messages, apps, photos?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bashar.enjarini:
just connect you r phone to PC and open PC companion program from your PC...go to update.i think it will tell you that you have the latest firmware and it will give you the option to repair.just press on repair and it will instal a fresh firmware to your form, in other words it will format your phone and instal a new firmware...back up ur photos and music and other things on s card is simply by copy them to your PC...formatting your phone will not delete any files on the s card however it is recommended to copy every thing to your PC. hope this helped you
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snipes1836:

find a solution? my xperia play doesnt get a signal.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cezeoh:
Hey guys, i Have a Xperia play but this thread looks more as i m passing through, i installed several roms and

​

kernels but my GPS Wont Works, im thinking that my last overclock has burned my GPS module, is this possible?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cezeoh:
Hi, here im again, this time i m very happy because i repaired my gps of my xperia play and think that your problem is the same, i tried so many ways:

* Custom Kernels : DoomLord, darkforest, and others,

* Custom Roms: Ics, others that i dont remember (i m on this by 2 months)

* Stock Firm: 4.0.1.A.0.283, .42, .62

* Tried to change the BaseBand so many times

* Tried to clean the main board chip (yes i disassembled my phone many times).

* Tried other things that i dont remember.

Today i flashed a 2.3.2 android stock version, and the signal is best, hsupa working better, and (not in the first time) Gps working fine.

I put "not in the first time" because the gps is a complicated part of the phone it needs so many things working together to be ok that it only worked 4 hours after i had flashed, testing an testing, purging the a-gps data, downloading so many apps to gps... at the end "GPS Status App" on the option "Manage A-GPS status" solved the problem.

Thank you for the attention,

[Vibrant General] WiKDMoNKY:
My wife has had it with her Vibrant running a 2.3.5 CM7 based ROM not having working GPS. I figured I would put her back to a stock but rooted ROM.

Is this possible? I have used ODIN before, so that is not an issue. I am having a hard time finding an original ROM to download.

What are my options?

Thanks in advance!!!
[Vibrant General] eggnoodle:
I was on Simply Honey and I ODIN back to stock (eclair).

I use the "GBBOOT-T959UVJFD.tar" (see link below, file is in 2nd post) and the 512 pit file. Make sure to

check

Re-Partition only, leave the other boxes UNCHECKED.

I followed s15274n guide, (link below) to root and install any rom. I used option B to root and update rom. I installed Trigger as I was on this prior to CM7 and found it to be the most stable.

[Vibrant General] WiKDMoNKY:
So I cannot just download the stock ROM and ODIN back to it? Because of the GB bootloaders?
[Vibrant General] lazyb421:
Use this method. It'll clean out any ghosts of old roms, and put you back on jk2 froyo with root and busybox. It should also put you back on froyo bootloader. I do this between every flash now.

Then if you want rooted stock then flash or odin kb5 froyo found on this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1036193

I would suggest flashing a custom froyo rom like ZenDroid, Trigger 3.2, or Project V though.

Ok, I got it downgraded to 2.1 and then up to 2.2. How do I get the official stock 2.2.1 ROM for it? I have been looking around, but cannot find it for download. What is the best procedure for rooting 2.2?
[Vibrant General] lazyb421:
I believe the latest official stock for Vibrant is 2.2 kb5. You can root using Z4root on your phone or Super One Click from your computer. Or you can use Rom Manager to put CWM on you're phone and flash the pre-rooted stock kb5 from the thread I posted above.

4. Wipe Dalvik Cache

5. Flash "'s FORMAT ALL.zip"

6. Flash "ThUnDeR & LiGhTnInG bEtA.zip"

Does anyone know if I can change my phones stock rom with cherryblur without messing with another kernel? Because I have an AT&T atrix that I bought from amazon.com and it came unlocked since I live in Costa Rica, everything is stock, but I'd like to change my rom and wanna know if I can put that rom on my phone as is comes, with my stock kernel, I guess it's stock since I haven't changed anything and it came with gingerbread 2.3.4 out of the box. So do I need another kernel or something? Because it is in fact an AT&T phone, it was just career unlocked. And can I flash it even when I have gingerbread on it?

PLEASE help! I wanna get rid of motoblurs slowlyness...

[General Questions and Answers] Deniska11:
Ok so my Galaxy S2 is COMPLETELY driving me insane today. I got an ADWLauncher, didnt like it, now i went back to my TWlauncher. Whenever i want to set my wallpaper, no matter if i want it on ONE screen, or stretched on ALL screens, i ALWAYS get the same result, the wallpaper is stretched on ALL screens. I searched the forums, someone said its probably the launcher causing this problem. Cant find the settings on how to turn that retarded feature off!!

My goal is to have: Single Picture for all screens (Picture doesnt move when i scroll my screens).

If i set it for the lock-screen, i get what i want, but not when i unlock the screen.

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
I doubt if the default TW launcher has the option to disable Wallpaper scrolling. If i'm right, your only option is to use a Launcher that does have the option. Simple really.
[General Questions and Answers] justbenice:
I am also going to mad with this retard launcher because of this. I CAN'T choice 1 wallpapers also.
[General Questions and Answers] Deniska11:
I wish it was that easy. TW doesnt have the option, but when i select the wallpaper style, all screens or 1, it actually DID work. Didnt need no option. After i got ADW Launcher, it stopped working. Tried deleting the ADW and set TW as default, still doesnt work.

Just got GO Launcher, that one DOES have the option of wallpaper scroll. Does it work? Of course, not really, still zooms the picture!!!!!!!!! Paper doesnt move, but the picture is zoomed out like no tomorrow. I have a girl as my picture, all i see is her breasts, i wanna see the rest!!!!
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
The picture needs to 960x800. Make sure the important part of the picture is centred. Disable wallpaper scrolling, and now you have what you want no matter what homescreen you are on.

Easy.

Post the picture here so we can help...joke :p
[General Questions and Answers] hawkerpaul:
Its annoying that you cant display the entire picture.

I usually give up and put on a live wallpaper!
[General Questions and Answers] apbthe3:
I know it's not the ideal answer, but you can create a blank 960 x 800 image in an image editor (MS Paint will even work) and paste your image in the center of it. It may be a pain, but it will give you the result you're looking for.
[General Questions and Answers] Deniska11:
Sorry, gonna have to bother you a bit more. I downloaded a picture, 960 by 800. Here is what happened, i will provide screens. 4 of them!

Scenario 1.

Before i press "Save" i see this.

And the Result: EXACTLY whats expected right? Stretched out on all screens.

Scenario 2.

Before i press "Save" i see this.

And the result: ABSOLUTELY NOT WHAT I SAW IN PREVIEW!!!! =)

Disabling wallpaper scrolling, seems logical but i NEVER used that feature before. Whatever i saw on my preview, is exactly what i get on the background. Single screen background preview was the same as the background. Now, i dont know what happened, my preview for single screen and actual background dont match at all. You can see from the picture #4, on the preview i see the road, in the background, im seeing only the bumper. Am i making sense? If Im confusing you please ask, i really want to get this to work. Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] plainjane:
Try using Superwall Lite. You can use any image without cropping & it will scroll accordingly (or not, if the image is the size of your screen). If you have a photo that you only want a portion of, crop it before setting it in Superwall.

Superwall is a live wallpaper so you must have a phone/rom that supports live wallpapers. It doesn't drain battery like most live wallpapers because it's merely displaying an image. It's worth a shot, if you don't like it then you haven't lost much.
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
In scenario 1 the picture isn't 960x800. You can see by the apect ratio that it's more like 1280x800 which means you have to choose a section of it to use.

In scenario 2 the picture looks to be the correct size but you're not selecting the whole picture. The guidelines need to be pulled out around the whole picture. Then you will have the entire picture over three screens, but with wallpaper scrolling turned off you would have just the centre 480 pixels showing on every screen.

Example:

That is the picture cropped correctly @ 960x800, with the car centred as well as can be acheived. The red box is the centre 480 pixels. (One screens width).

You can see that the car is wider than 480, so on your homescreen it will disappear off the edges onto the adjoining screens. The only way around that is if the car was narrower on the original picture. Imagine if it had been a person standing in the picture instead. They wouldn't be so wide so it would be easier to fit that person on one screen.

Try setting that picture with the red box as your wallpaper. Pull the guidelines around the whole image and set it. You'll see on your centre screen exactly what i marked out in red.

Edit: Superwall sounds like a good suggestion. Give it a go!
[General Questions and Answers] Deniska11:
Hey. Yep the wallpaper, sorry that was my bad, its actually 800x480, the number is correct just not in this case. Need the 800pi to be vertical. Anyways, once again thanks a lot for the reply.

This time i got a TRUE 960x480. Results, same layout as before.

Ill start by saying, superwall doesnt work, read comments, many people have the same problem. I cant find it ANYWHERE.

I totally get what you are saying, please dont get mad =) Not saying you are mad. You can see that "1st scenario" i see the road on both preview and actual wallpaper, right? Right. 2nd scenario....preview, i see the road, actual wallpaper....no road, not even close.

I understand you example with the person, it was narrow the picture would fit, no sides would be chopped off. I get that part. Where i am having trouble is, the zooming in part. Why does my preview for "stretched out on all screens" matches, but the preview for "one for all screens" doesnt. Why can i see the road within the preview box, but not on the screen??

Please and thank you.
