[Vibrant General] romitkin:
hi.

It seems now that every 2.3 based ROM supports GPS, and people say they get a very fast lock.

But I was never able to get a lock with any ROM, I have tried several versions of MIUI and several versions of CM7.

The only ROMs I am able to use GPS in, are Froyo based.

Even there, it takes around 5 minuted to get a lock.

I did the hardware fix half a year ago, it helped very much because I was using Froyo then (it took only 5 minutes vs 15 minutes to lock) but now it doesn't lock at all.

Any solution?

Thanks.

i applied that fix and noticed no improvement, unfortunately. i had great hopes for it from reading the comments others had left about success using it.

the gps on my vibrant (running CM7) is quite odd.. it seems to 'know' where i am, but won't ever get off of the 'searching for gps' message, and of course, won't switch gears to the point where it actually tells me where to go. but if i want to look at my location on my phone and follow the 'map' it displays, or read the directions, it sort of works, in a hinky sort of way.
[Vibrant General] Moped_Ryder:
Try a program called GPS Aids from the market - Ive had mixed results with it.
[Vibrant General] romitkin:
I think that you are using the AGPS function, which uses the WiFi and mobile network to determine your location. It is much less accurate than GPS, which doesn't work.

About the GPS fix and GPS AIDS, I will try later and post the results, thanks!
[Vibrant General] popthree:
that makes sense.. its just getting rough position with the mobile network.. (i usually have wifi antennae off)

last night i downloaded a gps test tool from the market... ZERO satellites... and mine worked perfectly when i was running Axura. i'll probably be going back there very soon.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] villieb:
Afternoon all...

Apologies if this question has been asked. I've been searching but getting myself confused with all the info.

I downloaded cifsmanager from market place and tried to run it. I found that it wasn't working. After a little reading, I was told I need the cifs.ko module.

I downloaded what I thought was the correct module, made sure that within cifsmanager, I had the correct path and it still doesn't work.

I've read on few threads that this will not work on the stock kernel and that pershoot's kernel will do the job.

I found a link to pershoot's kernels http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/ but now confused as to which one I could use.

I have a 16gb WiFi and 3g model, do I use this kernel?

"10.1 3G, Touchwiz UX (HC 3.2 (stock); GT-P7500):

boot-cm_2636.4_p4_ux_hc32-oc-xtra-vfpv3-d16_fp-121111.zip:"

I've extracted the cifs.ko from lib-2636.4_ux_hc32.tar.gz - the droidbasement.com website says to push the module I desire to /data/local/modules

Where do I push it to, the kernel zip file?

Thanks in advanced....

This is such a simple (but useful) mod I'm surprised it hasn't been posted.

If like me you only use the home button to wake the screen, and don't want the power button waking the screen whilst in your pocket or when you try to adjust the volume. This is for you.

You need to be rooted and need a file manager that supports root (Root Explorer or Root Browser (LITE version works fine)).

On your phone navigate to system/usr/keylayout

open sec_key.kl in text editor (you can make a backup if you want by adding .bak to the end of the file name and saving - Root Explorer will do this automatically)

delete WAKE from either HOME or POWER (not both!)

save and reboot.

Was thinking about it myself, so props for the info, even if I don't really mind it turning on with power button as well, but I appreciate the tutorial :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] comixster:
is it possible to totally disable a button?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] stjoemail:
is there any setting to disable "back" button? I find the back button annoying when we are using s-memo, as it oftentimes accidentally activated.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] giokou:
Thanks for this awesome little mod, which is veeery handy!!! :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] brez:
Yes, in system/usr/keylayout

sec_touchkey.kl

I now have my back key set as SEARCH and use LaunchKey (paid version) to remap long press search as back. It works quite well, as search does nothing in most note/drawing apps.

market.android.com/details?id=com.beansoft.launchkey&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5iZWFuc29mdC5sYXVuY2hrZXkiXQ

Hopefully someone will figure out or develop a better way.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] stjoemail:
i saw inside sec_touchkey.kl the parameter Back WAKE, what should I change to make Back button to function as search?

thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] holgalee:
Thank you for sharing this! Now for the not so bright question: does this mean if I accidentally hit the power button when making a call or playing a game, I won't be able to turn off the screen anymore?

TIA.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] jsphoto:
I disabled the wake for power button, it works for a sort press, but long press still wakes.

Any tips? I think this will avoid pocket button presses.

thanks

Edit= never mind, I didn't reboot, works now.

it been posted in sg2 thread.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] stjoemail:
found the solution, using buttonremapper I switched the menu and back button so no need to buy launchkey. now if i accidentally press the right button during using s-memo, it will not activate the back function but menu function, so can easily cancel without the apps closing.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] Already in use:
Thx for your answer. ES File Explorer (in root mode) only start from the /sdcard/ directory, and doesn't go upper. System's directories are above if I'm right.

Why the hell root explorer tell me that this file (sec_key.kl) is write only protected (why as he is root too, he can't write on the file).

Others in this thread have try this whit rooted G Note XXKKA / CWM without problem, I don't get it... :confused:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] Tomdroid:
Great hint, thank you!

Had some trouble getting the sec_key.kl edited though: Root explorer didn't want to edit / save changes / change permissions / create a new file (even on external_sd!). No idea why. My Note is rooted (obviously) and Superuser reports SU granted when I launch RE.

To finally do it I copied the file to the external_sd using RE, edited it using ES, moved it back to system\usr\keylayout (which strangely enough worked) with RE, adjusted the permissions (wich, again, strangely enough now was possible) with RE, rebooted.

[HD2 General] abati:
guyzz,

this is is realy bad. I just send my htc hd2 with out android or hspl, now i am charged with 285,6 euro.

Becouse they found something in the bootloader that did not match with the original windows 6.5

what i did was flash to an original windows 6.5 and then remove hspl.

they also send me 2 pictures that shows that i had illegal software on my phone according to them.

Please can you check the pictures, and tell me if htc is right.
[HD2 General] tecle2595:
theyre right. your bootloader sir.
[HD2 General] abati:
oh nice but what about my right ? cus i have a hardware issue and not a software issue !
[HD2 General] Marvlesz:
Replacing the SPL voids your warranty, despite your device's fault to be hardware or software related.

You should have gone with 1.66 I assume?
[HD2 General] abati:
what is the reason of rejecting an illegal software on any device ? the damage it can cause right, everything has a reason if they could show that the damage was made by the software it would be clear that i do not have any rights for warranty. But this is not the case right now !

It's the same with cars. A car manufacturer cannot void warranty on the engine because you put aftermarket wheels on the car.

SO please give me a clear advice of my rights.
[HD2 General] ASCIIker:
i'm going to elaborate on your "cars" example...

yes, car manufacturers don't care if you use aftermarket wheels...this is because they DECLARE clearly exactly what voids the warranty.

ONE of the things HTC DECLARES as warranty-voiding is the presence of custom firmwares (i am paraphrasing). because this is declared by them and it is assumed that the customer will read and understand the warranty terms before purchasing, it is legally acceptable for them to reject your warranty claim if they can find evidence of any of the declared items that void the warranty.

logically, you are absolutely correct to expect a reason of how the action of HSPL installation could have caused some apparently unrelated hardware issue. but, LEGALLY they have the right to deny warranty. you see, the terms of the warranty talk about the evidence that they will look for...the terms of the warranty do not talk about a legal obligation on htc's part to establish a cause and effect relationship.

i hope that explains things a bit!

P.S. i've been watching waaaaaayyyyy too much CSI...:eek:
[HD2 General] abati:
thnx for the explanation bro,

if i want my phone back without repair i have to pay for service cost 58,- euro that is also ridicules, cause the only thing they did was check if it was legal or not, is it realistic to accept that easily ?
[HD2 General] ASCIIker:
i have always found all of these costs to be waaayyy too high. but "thats how they get you!" :D

most people are instructed here on xda to revert to stock SPL and ROM before claiming warranty. best practice is to note the stock SPL and ROM version numbers before playing with the device. as a general rule, SPL 1.66 is recommended for EU HD2s and SPL 2.08 is recommended for TMOUS HD2s (someone please correct me if i am wrong!).

we remove the evidence, so htc finds no evidence of custom firmware, and so they honor the warranty! thats how we get them! :D
[HD2 General] abati:
i understand you verry clear !!

but its just so weird cause the last 3 times i send my htc for repair i always used the same method as i did for this time. but this time it went wrong. shall i just negotiate with them to lower the price for the service cost and at the time i get my phone back fix everything again and send it for the second time ?
[HD2 General] king786:
do u think htc are going to listen they might not accept device again be careful they are clever
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zaneyard:
Apparently I was wrong. :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] _MetalHead_:
A+ thread, would read again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zaneyard:
But no seriously, I have a 1200 pixel tall monitor and the android dev forum is half of my screen. It just looks sloppy. Not that it really matters but it just makes it hard to sift through the data. Most other device forums have 1 or 2 stickies. We have 10. 4 of which could be compacted into 1 "read first" post, 3 of them are how to root, and 3 of them are about modems (possibly out of date anyway?).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sling:
lmao yeah dev pretty loud with duplicate EK02 how to this that , unroot tip 24 etc many threads on same topic which I'm sure gets a little confusing for newbies.

Only things needed in sticky status is sfhub automatic root & Jerdog How to flash tar with odin listing EG30 , EG31 , EK02 tars.

Operation Iron Fist , XDA development rules stay intact of course.

A major + would be a qbking sticky that had all rom reviews in one place.

Its simple stuff not confusing getting the job done.

From there merge 4 of the same topics together leaving kernels and rom threads in tact.

End result is clean organized forum
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jerdog:
ok - you're going to complain and clutter the thread - one of you can be part of the solution.

Which of you wants to take a sticky to create:

Current Root Processes

Return to Stock Options

Kernels/Mods/ROMs/Recoveries

The key is you will have to maintain it. But if you can complain and clutter, then I think you're capable of compiling info and updating.

Otherwise......... i think you get the idea.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zaneyard:
Thanks for the reply. I'll look at writing a few threads up when I get home from the gym.

Is it preferred that I link back to the original writer for some of these things? Copy pasta seems too much like stealing other peoples work to me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jerdog:
create a post that has links to the original information - is just an informational sticky - title it so that it's easy to understand - maintain it - etc.

Also someone who wants to keep track of a list of ROMs.... Even one thread that has Kernels/Mods/ROMs/Recoveries all in one
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zaneyard:
I agree, I just thought about how if it was copied you would lose all of the old discussion.

I'll lay out a rough organizational later.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffix31:
excellent idea!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zaneyard:
Do you guys think we should have root guides in the dev forum, or the general forum? As of now we have them in both.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boborone:
If any of you been a while, you might remember the sticky rollup. In that that you have a ton of links to the threads and the single sticky itself is just used for suggestions for other links. Once those links have been added, the posts deleted to clean the thread.

Perhaps move this thread

I'm moving it over the dev post, but would it matter if it's linked back to general? I suppose it's pretty easy to move that one thread in the end.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jerdog:
If any moving needs to happen I will do that.

Also any of the current procedural stickies will need to stay themselves and I will look at maybe trimming them.

Later on tonight I will also look at what you have categorized and offer my opinions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boborone:
Yeah that's the idea of a rollup. One thread to encompass them all. Then you break up the op like you did for grouping like thread links together. Maybe have a section for useful mods. I haven't checked it in a few months, but if you look at the HTC fuze rollup, you might get some ideas. Conantroutman made one for the captivate when he took midship of those forums. That one had everything bundled together. Some devices wikis are pretty nice, too. Maybe get an idea from that. The captivate is pretty good. Vibrant and epic are ones to get an idea of what not to do.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zaneyard:
Yeah it's all for the most part in the same place. I just moved that one dev rule thread over to the test post for the dev forum instead of the general forum's

As it stands it's all just links to the current stickies in categories.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zaneyard:
very nice. It will take a bit of upkeep but a wiki being collaborative and all.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Shoulon:
Wait the Wiki Is freely editable even to user's? Iv'e been thinking to make a all in one thread. Despite that the Wiki is the most UNUSED thing in xda next to the rule's page...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
The point of it is a place to point people. See the wiki. Our EVO had them and they were great for quick finds, even if it's just people that already know quite a bit. It's a nice way to organize resources.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Shoulon:
Which is why I asked if user's are free to edit it. I agree with you. But alot of the time the Wiki is very unused. unless your in a Huuuge phone community (like the Nexus,Evo,G1 and so on)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zaneyard:
I think any xda dev user can edit it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jerdog:
wiki imo always makes the most sense

Post in here the final ideas and we can go from there
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zaneyard:
I think the wiki would be easier and more effective to be honest. Just post a sticky in every sub forum with the link to the wiki "welcome page" or "read first page"
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zaneyard:
Bump, what do you guys think? A link to the wiki on each subforum? or at least, a relevant wiki page.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Respect18:
I think its great! Everything is organized and now I don't have to search as much anymore.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zaneyard:
Well jerdog, my vote goes for a link to the wiki as a "READ FIRST" Sticky in each forum. If you have any better ideas, or like my test sticky posts better, feel free to do what you want. In the end you're the one removing the old stuff and adding the new stuff so it's kinda your decision in the end.

Unfortunately, one cannot create a RUU, as they are developed by the phone's manufacturer and service provider. They are meant to install stock updates for the phone. Also, depending on the manufacturer, they are hard to find (like HTC's). PM me about the problem and I will see what I can do.
