[HTC Inspire 4G] Austin2048:
It hasn't been a problem to me until recently but ever since I rooted my Inspire 4G my GPS hasn't worked at all. Everytime I put a location in, it just says "Searching for GPS" and it never connects. I don't know if this will help but here are some things I've found on my phone

When I dial *#*#4636#*#* I get a bunch of info. In that info it says "GPRS service: Disconnected" (I think that's the problem)

After reading that I think I have the wrong radio version? When I go to "About Phone" in the settings I found my Baseband version. It is 12.39.60.19P_26.06.04.06_M

I don't know anything about radios or how to fix or update them (If that's the problem)

BTW I'm running Android Revolution HD 6.1.3
[HTC Inspire 4G] 1ChesterD:
You're running the radio that came with the phone originally, and that could be the problem. Best bet for help would be to ask in the AR Q&A forum-Searching would have been a good idea. Also, you might want to read the radio sticky in the DEV forum.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Austin2048:
I tried 3 different radios and none of them worked. I also tried a different rom. I tried Android revolution with the new radios and nothing. And i tried the newest beta of Ice cream Sandwich and still nothing. Maybe it's not the radio. Could it be something else? The new radios I tried were said to work with ARHD...
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
Radio shouldn't matter. Perhaps is is just loose. Check out this thread:

I pulled the GPS antenna off and pulled up the gold contacts and cleaned off the contacts on the antenna with a q tip. I put everything back together and tried the GPS but.....nothing. It still won't connect and the GPRS service still comes up as disconnected...

But now knowing that those metal contacts are for antennas... I pulled up the 2 little metal contacts that are under the battery door and under the sim and sd card cover and now my WiFi and cell reception are WAY better than they ever were. I used to get 2 bars of cell sitting on my couch but now I have full bars. Same with my WiFi when I am on the second floor.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Gene Poole:
Well, glad to hear that you improved signal. Bummer about GPS, but even though GPRS has all three of the GPS initials, it has absolutely nothing to do with GPS. GPRS is "General Packet Radio Service" and is the lowest level of data communications on our phones. I'ts more-or-less 1G data. 2G is "Edge", then there's 3G and 4G, but none of those have anything to do with GPS.
[HTC Inspire 4G] jadeus0831:
I had the same issue with ARHD being 6.1.3 ,6.1.5 or the newest 6.2.0...

Gps just wouldnt lock...there's a Q&A in that thread for possible GPS fixes and this one worked best, all others no dice.

[Trick] Speed Up Satelite Fix for GPS on Android

I get lock in about 10sec at 8meters accuracy...give it a try
[HTC Inspire 4G] Austin2048:
Thank you so much!! That worked for me! I lock onto 10 satellites in like 8 seconds and in the GPS app it locks on before the map even loads! The GPS on this phone hasn't worked for about 6 months I'm so happy it's working again.

Thank you everyone who gave their input on here. I fixed my GPS and learned a few things :) I'd be so lost without you guys lol
[HTC Inspire 4G] tsamrein:
Glad you found your fix for the issue. I had a similar problem when I first rooted and installed ARHD 6.1.0 with the recommended radio. This also fixed my issues.
[HTC Inspire 4G] stzzd420:
does fix only work for ARHD? because im using rcmix3d runny v4.0, and im having issues with gps also.

I have a CDMA EVO 3D, and it just started displaying random colors from the left side of the screen. It almost looks like a magnet was taken to an old monitor. They flicker in and out, but the touch works just fine, and everything else seems OK. Never had a problem with it before, it just started up. Anybody have any ideas?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
So... I'm calibrating my battery. Charged it to 100%, left it run down to 0%, and am now charging it back up without any break. The problem is... as soon as I plugged in the charger when the phone powered down, the charging battery icon came up..and it wont go away. It's been like this for 2 hours.

I'm hoping the device is actually charging and isn't just frozen or something; I don't want to turn the device on as that might hinder the whole calibration thing.

Question is: Does anyone know how long it takes to charge from dead to 100% ? I need to know when to take the phone and see if it's actually been charging this whole time
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bestofrhcp:
Actually that happened to me last night let it charge for a lil bit unplug the phone take the battery out and then put the battery back in and turn the phone back on with the power button and it should turn back on
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Yeah I'd battery pull but can't mess up the calibration process. I know it's charging because the device is somewhat warm in the back and the display can't stay on for this long unless it's getting juice...

I'll battery pull if necessary in a couple of hours, or tomorrow morning. But seriously, this thing better be charging ಠ_ಠ
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wilkinator87:
rofl nice face bro
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Me gusta.

So it's morning, the device charged, but I did have to do a battery pull before booting it up. All is well :}
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] spences10:
Yeah, I had this issue too

Wondered WTF was going on as I couldnt turn it back on whilst it was charging and the battery logo stayed on even when I unplugged it

Was resolved by pulling the battery and powering back on

OP hows your battery doing now?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mysterioustko:
When I did a full charge from the point that I ran the battery down until the phone turned itself off, it took approx 140min for it to charge completely to 100%. That being said, I'd give it 2.5hrs max and if it still isn't showing it as being done charging, then there may be a problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ljwnow:
It's caused by the bad cwm. We need a fixed cwm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dmw017:
Battery was at 27% at 2:47pm. Been turned on since 10AM and playing music for about two hours with screen turned on for 2h 15m. Was in airplane mode for about 2hours as well. No es bueno imo, compared to what I saw before. Might be the new rom/kernels I flashed; even though they were supposed to significantly increase battery life.

..ah well who knows lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] r0nd3L:
Has this issue been solved? I just rooted my phone, installed CWM, and different ROM. Whenever phone is powered off and I try to charge it, I cannot turn it back on without battery pull. This wasn't an issue with stock phone.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer0Kevin:
Hey guys,

I've been searching for an answer for days now and I finally decided to make an account here on XDA.

I recently unlocked the bootloader of my Atrix (I have superuser and all) and now I want to upload a custom ROM (CM7). I followed the steps on the CM7 thread for installation yet I was left scratching my head and eventually was extremely frustrated after many reboots, configurations, and even a hard reset! :confused:

I used ROM Manager to get CWM, I flashed the latest version, and entered recovery mod, both from the app and manually. Nothing - just the Android Recovery. Tried many times, sometimes I was given a "failed to boot 2, starting RSD mode" error but most of the times I was just taken to the normal recovery.

I read somewhere that the install-recovery.sh file found in the system had to be deleted so I downloaded ES File Explorer, enabled root and writing and successfully deleted it (or so I thought), I was taken to the android recovery again! :eek: When I checked the file explorer again, install-recovery.sh was back... I have tried many times and it keeps on returning.

What am I doing wrong? I don't even know how to use fastboot, I am a noob and 90% of the language used on this forum is foreign to me hahaha (I traded my iPhone 4 for the Atrix less than two weeks ago). Also, I accidentally deleted my install-recovery.sh.bak file, is that important?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Kevin.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ripin150:
Alright, calm down, and dont panic, I was a noob too, just dont do anything rash and this'll be fine. First off, the install-recovery.sh.bak thing, or whatever you said it was called, is just a backup of whatever it was replacing, hence the .bak file extension. Now, you can still get into Android right, everything boots correctly and whatnot, or are you not able to boot right now? Also, it says youre unlocked for sure, correct? Like, when you boot, it says Unlocked up in the corner? We're going to get you through this, just answer these questions first
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer0Kevin:
Hey,

Sorry if I sounded dramatic haha, just typed off the top of my head.

Thanks for clarifying regarding the bak file. No, it does not say unlocked at the top corner when booting, i assumed having the superuser app meant that I was unlocked/bootloader unlocked. The am I missing something here?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer0Kevin:
Also, my phone is totally functional. In fact, I am typing this on it
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Swiftks:
Yeah, your not unlocked at all... maybe rooted, but not unlocked. See my signature for noob guide. :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer0Kevin:
I have been trying all day to unlock the bootloader with no success lol

I can't install RSDlite, it gives me error 29** or something like that, have tried multiple download links and I cannot install the x64 driver, my desktop is running 32 bit which is probably the issue I'm guessing... Any alternates? It gives me a "processor type not compatible" error.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost_og:
Have you tried the automatic unlock linked to in Swift's N00B guide? It doesn't get any easier than that.

It's packaged with RSDLite 5.3.1. It's the one I used to unlock. Don't see why it wouldn't still work. There's a link to Motorola's driver page there as well.

Do not use the CWM packaged with it though, it's outdated. Flash romracer's or ROM Manager's.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer0Kevin:
Yes I have.

I followed all the steps and eventually it got to the unique ID part, no ID was shown, googled it and found out that I had to use RSDlite first, but there's my problem.. Also tried the fastboot oem method, same problem.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost_og:
You had mentioned you were trying to use the x64 drivers on a 32-bit machine. Did you ever get around to installing the correct x86 ones from the Motorola site?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer0Kevin:
No, I have not. Would you find sending me the link? I don't know where to start haha

I will try on my other desktop later after I finish my homework :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost_og:
See my previous post, #7. If you go to that automatic unlock thread, there is a link to the Motorola drivers page in the instructions. Look at the prerequisites.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ewok666:
Could someone please give an idea of what the email client on the GN can do? I'm on the SGS2 at the moment and, while not perfect, the built in email client allows to search the server and control the sync via schedules.

Is the Email on the Galaxy Nexus just like the AOSP 2.3 version, are there any enhancements, does it have issues with wake locks?

TIA
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
I use it to connect to my exchange server at work. It seems the same as the 2.3 app except it has a white instead of black theme. I haven't noticed any other differences. And yes you can set the check frequency to your liking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ewok666:
Thanks. Can it search emails that have NOT been synced to your device? And can you tell it to push Mo - Fr 07:00 - 23:00 and do manual pull the rest of the time?

TIA
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
Nope.

If I needed those features, i would use Touchdown.

Yes, I have bought touchdown but sadly it supports push on ONE account only which is unacceptable to me. I need to receive push emails from several businesses and would prefer not to forward them into a single mailbox....

hello all,

I have a questions about the root on my device..

Last week I bought a SGS2 4G Epic Sprint, and I unlocked for use on Mexico, Iusacell company...

currently the phone it's perfectly work is CDMA...

With the phone root and unlocked, I can update to new version of the Android..??

Regards...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
Unlocking for use in another country and rooting are not the same thing. Are you sure you are rooted? Even if you are, there is not a stable Ice Cream Sandwich ROM ready for this phone yet.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] IA-32e:
I think the question is whether or not the firmware can be updated while rooted?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I think that's what he was asking. You can update it by flashing new firmware but will not get over the air update if rooted
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] IA-32e:
I was curious about that too. So if you're on a stock ROM w/root or a custom ROM and try to update it from the GUI will it just return an error or will it not even show there's a firmware update?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chanflee:
ok ok

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] apg5050:
Yes, I am interested in the answer to this as well. What happens when a completely stock, yet rooted, ET4G phone tries to receive either a pushed, or requested OTA update?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dtuachi:
I don't know if this is the same case, but this might help:

I bought a Nexus S 4g to use in Mexico, and after unlock, I was still getting the OTA updates, and after rooting too. but the problem I had when updating an OTA on my rooted phone was that when I updated the OTA update I lost my root access (since it was an OTA of a Stock not-rooted ROM)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
If you are only rooted and take a ota update it will work and will remove root as no company is going to send a ota update rooted.... That is why they tell you never update a rooted phone as there may not be a way to root it again if you do.... Not as big of a deal with Samsung as we can root with Odin...HTC was bad about this ....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] monkey hung:
I thought this problem would be fixed in ICS, but I guess it has not yet been fixed. I installed SyncMyPix and that hasn't worked. I turned off auto sync contacts and tried SMP again and still I got huge blurry pics. Is there anything I can do about this problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nyijedi:
Put the high res files on your phone and assign them to contacts there. It's annoying, but it's the only way ivy gotten it to wprk.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] monkey hung:
That's way too much work for all my contacts. Also, I would like to have their latest photos from Facebook and what not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rikbrown:
I think we'll be waiting for FB to update their app to properly support the People API... sigh.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qwerp_:
i find that, if your people has links to google+ (with the same name that it has tag it automatically), you will still need to go into people app for it to cache a High Resolution photo first, before it will work on the dialler.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blunden:
Considering that they didn't want to use the Android API for contact sync before I wouldn't be surprised if they don't enable that feature for a long time. They never used the normal API which is why it was blocked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BiGMERF:
for fb , i use friendcaster.. it has high res sync capability
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] webvictim:
I've still found that Friendcaster's syncing doesn't give pictures of a truly decent resolution, they're just a little less blurry than usual.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sluflyer06:
Keep in mind the high-res contacts =256x256 on a 1280x720 screen so I don't thinks they're ever going to look crystal clear.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ddgarcia05:
I read this a while back. Make a phone only contact with a picture of the party. Now link that contact with the synced contact. Now choose to use the phone only contact picture. Not sure if that works.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Yea Facebook reduces the contact icons. So you'll never get a REAL HD image from Facebook unless you actually grab some of their uploaded pictures from their photo album... but it will require more work to get it right.

Facebook Sync, IMO, is good and bad. I LOVE the feature as it quickly populates my contacts with images. I HATE it because sometimes I look for the images through a list, and if it changes often, can make it harder. Sorta like theming your App Drawer.

Typically what I do is Sync with my social media to get the majority of contacts synced up. But I usually manually add photos of my most popular contacts with ones I've taken with my phone's camera.

Manual contact photos sync with Google along with your contacts... so you really only have to do it once.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
If your phone is stock you have to pay to get it turned on by sprint. If your phone is rooted there is a hack you can apply that bypasses the sprint activation and it just works. Many custom roms have the hack built in so you can use the hotspot free without using a separate app like wifi tether. If you flashed a custom rom and it now works you won't get billed

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] DoctorQMM:
Attention Developers: Looks like the T-989 has an OTG USB enabled kernel...

http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-enable-otg-usb-host-support-on-t-mobile-galaxy-s-ii-t989/

So, have a few questions for the kernel experts:

1) I'm looking for a basic I727-SR kernel (i.e., not OC'd or UV'd, no special boot animation, no BLN, etc). So yes, basically a stock AT&T I727 kernel WITH:

a) OTG USB Host enablement (to be able to r/w, transfer files between phone and a USB flash drive);

b) Battery optimization

c) Stability

2) Anyone aware of an AT&T I727-SR kernel that is not OC'd but has the added functionality of OTG USB hosting?

3) If not, any Devs interested in creating a basically stock kernel but with OTG USB hosting?

Thanks.

Bump. Really... 3 days? Where's the love?

Just curious, aren't there any other Skyrocket users who would like this functionality?

No need to slave the phone to a computer to share/transfer files, pics, music, etc.
