[HTC Sensation] gypsy214:
guys somewhere i saw it does but i dont remember where i saw it

but i know the sensation xl have it. i just wanted to know, cause the gps gets instant lock and give 100% location of where i am.

comparing to others android phones this one is the best i seen.

so thats why i was asking thought some phones search the gps from a satellite and takes then 5 minutes for the first lock and then 5-30 seconds later.
[HTC Sensation] bobbymokie:
Yes it has real GPS, will still work without connection to a network. Lock is fairly quick, usually right after the map loads. Some ROM's are faster than others
[HTC Sensation] gypsy214:
no wonder. my other phone (g2x) its fast after it gets its first lock. but its very slow with slow network connection.
[HTC Sensation] simbo64:
To expand on the answer

Just to expand on the answer to your question, the actual GPS antenna is in the back case of your phone. This is why the signal is so good because HTC designed the phone well. If you took the back off and exposed the battery, micro sd card etc... you would find gps, wifi and cellular signal would all plumet

Hey all,

So here's what I've got / am thinking. I have a rooted Motorola Xoom 3g model, and I can access the command line. Now, I realize that

Apps

can only be written in / run with Java in the Dalvik VM. What I fail to understand is, that things like busybox, and even Backtrack 5 has an "arm" version that you can easily install side by side with Honeycomb. So, what I'm trying to figure out is, how can I (or why can I not) write apps in C or C++ that are system based daemon's, that are

Not Apps

per se for the honeycomb system, but simple *nix based programs?
[General Questions and Answers] sovereign_313:
So, I didn't see a good way to mark this thread as solved, but I figured it out. You need to use an ARM cross-compiler (gcc/g++ has one, or you can use Code Sourcery's compiler, which I did). It was a breeze to build a simple program on my *nix box, compile it with that (arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc -static hello.c -o hello) and adb push it to the Xoom!

Is it possible to use the official root method without HTC getting wind of it?

And further, has anyone brought a HTC-rooted phone in for repair, and if so, did the Sprint tech have any idea it was rooted?

Thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] Twolazyg:
Question 1: No.

Htc requires an unlock token generated by your phone, unique to your phone, to get the unlock code to unlock your bootloader. Plus, if you were to re-lock your phone, it would say "relocked" rather than "locked".

Question 2: Sprint does not care if your phone is rooted or not, they don't cover anything software related in the tes, unless you damage the hardware due to software modifications, i.e. processors or l.e.d.s
[HTC EVO 3D] ronnienyc:

Ignorance isn't a good excuse. Just apologize and do the right thing and start a thread in the appropriate place.

It's ridiculous the amount of people just tossing things out without taking a moment to stop and see what the deal is. Being new doesn't give you the right to just do what you want.

There are plenty of ROMS to choose from. Some are better than others, and some work better for others. Taboonay seems to be the most popular. I liked Lightspeed because it basically removed EVERYTHING that I didn't need. Citvao seems to be gaining momentium. There is also another guy by the name of THOR who created a custom ROM that incorporates some files from the transformer stock ROM that is pretty good too.

Steps to using CWM?

If there's a thread to using CWM please direct me to it.

I have taken a short cut in using it by watching a YouTube video for installing a custom ROM and not learned all the in's and out's of using CWM.

I had installed the OTA HC 3.2 over a rooted 3.1 and lost my rooting as I expected. I decided I wanted to have root capabilites but with HC 3.2, so I found the (Oct 5 )version here and started over again.

I started with the Method 2 approach to install HC 3.2 update (that was already rooted here on this web site) to get to HC 3.0.1. However, initially when I got to installing the HC 3.2 zip it just booted afterwards and then went to a blank screen. So I tried it again only not doing all the clearing of user data, caches, etc., that was mentioned in the YouTube Video for installing a custom ROM. That worked. I now have a Acer Iconia 16 GB A500 rooted with HC 3.2 on it which what I wanted.

I would like to try some other ROMs and still go back if I could but I'm not sure about what exactly has to be cleared every time you load a new ROM. I don't want to have it hang again to a blank screen and maybe screw it up so I can't fix it.

Any directions?

Oh, BTW, when I installed the HC 3.0.1 from Method 2, it was so unstable that I couldn't make a WIFI connection. I had to go right to 3.1 to be able to use WIFI and get Acer Recovery Installer and continue on to installing HC 3.2 rooted.

Thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] kjy2010:
This has been posted in another thread by another member, and I saved it. I just can't remember who posted it again.

It's how I do EVERY flash and NEVER have problems.

"Before installing:

Boot into CWM

1/wipe cache

2/wipe data/factory reset

Advanced Menu:

3/wipe dalvik

4/wipe battery stat

Mount and Storage Menu

5/format (system, data, cache )... leave SD card alone.

install the zip ( new rom ) file !

Once done installing... repeat steps #1 - #4 only ( this is to assured that you are cleaned 110% in regard to the NEW rom that you have just installed )

DO NOT DO THE STEP #5 AFTER THE INSTALLATION !

Reboot system into initial Android greeting screen."

Some would say it's a bit on the "overkill" side, but better safe than sorry.

Thanks again

Oh, BTW, I have read your other posts on this site and like what you have to say. Also, the last step you have, Step 5, isn't in the YouTube video. Maybe that's where I fouled up and somehow recovered by doing again without some of the clearing. I think I just lucked out and got it working. Initially, without WIFI, I was stuck on how can you install Acer Recovery Installer without going to the "Market"? I had to go to 3.1 to get WIFI and then install it from the Market. I searched the internet with a computer for it, but couldn't find the apk to download so I could move it to a SD card and the Acer. Anyway it's working now and looking forward to more new ROMs and maybe Ice Cream if that's going to be the way to go in the future.
[Acer Iconia A500] drkalo:
Unfortunately he cannot use Acer Recovery Installer as long as he does not have root and that is why he cannot backup his current configuration i.e. OTA 3.2. Taking the risk of reverting is in first place if he insists on using a custom ROM.
