[HTC EVO 3D] accord99:
They have historical accident and death rates and can quantify the safety improvement when GPS became available to aviation.

LS hired a third-party to perform tests on a few receivers using some prototype filters. These tests are irrelevant to the government. The government tests are not "private" tests, they are the only ones that matter and the detailed report will be released shortly.

On the other hand, LS already failed the test from the first half 2011 which composed of LS, many government agencies and GPS companies and tested every key field of GPS, from consumer to aviation and scientific. The testing was led by LS itself and was done at an Air Force base. I don't have enough posts yet to post a link but you can find the test report by Googling "pnt lightsquared gov" and look for "Final Report of FCC-Ordered Working Group"

At that time, the LS broadcast power was 1500W. This value did not change until September 2011. On the FCC website you can find LS's filing describing this change, 32 dBW (1585W) will still remain the maximum power output of their towers, but shorter towers will go down to a minimum of 22 dBW (160 W). However, in 2015 and 2017, for the lower power towers, they would double power each time, so that even the lowest power towers will be back at 28 dBW (630 W).

To find the document, Google "fjallfoss fcc gov 7021713198" and go to page 18.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mattridge:
Kind of Hosed Themselves

I wish they had succeeded, but it was evident early on in the process that someone had given them bad advice. The waiver had strict conditions about interference with GPS. They failed to meet the criteria.

They actually failed their own first round of tests. The initial FCC ordered tests were by a joint group heaed by LightSquared themsleves. The results were not disputed by LS:

As the other guy pointed out, Google: Final Report of the FCC Ordered Working Group"

But then upon realizing it was a losing proposition, they tried to change the parameters, spin, and redesign.

Yes we need more bandwidth, but there are other plans under way for broader coverage and hybrid services that do not pose a hazard to GPS. Lots of spectrum being sat on and underutilized. How about getting upset about those before throwing GPS under a bus?

If you look at Lightsquared's press relases over the past year you will find the following:

"There is no significant GPS interference problem."

"We have solved the GPS interference problem."

"Oops, there is still a problem, but we are willing to work with anyone to help them solve the inteference problem."

"There is no actual interference problem, all manufacturers of GPS devices have just produced defective devices that can't handle our interference."

"Yes there is interference, just deal with it!"

"We've had permission to create interference for over a decade!" (Then why was a waiver needed?)

"There is no interference problem, but the government does not like us, so they rigged the tests to show that there was." Tinfoil hats are next?

One cannot cry wolf so many times and maintain credibility.

love seeing new users here in the forum but find it lil funny that this is the first(or ONLY) thread for some to post in.....

you guys work for GPS companies or what? lol jk
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
I don't understand. Why would the GPS companies conspire to hold Lightsquared down? If Lightsquared already said they will take care of all the costs and fix any interference issues, then why would the GPS companies try to stop it?

Sometimes (often, actually) the simplest answer is the correct answer. It's not some huge conspiracy, but the system actually working in the way the system is supposed to work.
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:
stifling competition... it actually makes perfect sense. or somebody having stocks or ties with verizon... can you imagine the detrimental effects on your expensive ass phone service if another company came in with the same or better cell quality 30 bucks cheaper, and better (FREE!) data plans?

come on dude. not rocket science. cell phone companies are HUGE corporations, seeking money, end of story.

---------- Post added at 08:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:26 AM ----------

bottom line is, the whole story smells like ****.
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
The problem with your conspiracy theory is

1: Lightsquared is not in competition with these GPS companies.

2: Verizon (or any other cell phone carrier) is not the one opposing Lightsquared.

3: Verizon (or any other cell phone carrier) is not a GPS company.

4: Sprint has other LTE options.

5: Sprint doesn't seem bothered by this at all. They haven't exactly jumped to Lightsquared's defense.
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:
Just because you can't see something doesn't mean it's so black and white. And there are more conspiracies with stuff like this than you think. The government failed them, not the GPS companies... open your eyes.

Look at it like this... just as an example, a rough example but just to explain a possibility... (not saying this is exactly what it is, but just showing you something to think about)...

1. you can safely assume that verizon, being a cell network, and being as big as they are, has TONS of ties with people in the electronics world, and also governement officials who directly deal with their industry.

2. you know that verizon touts and spouts the fastest network around. this is their only selling point. really. because they don't offer any phone, or service that others don't. in fact, by comparison, they are more expensive and have ****tier plans. they rip you off. but again, their selling point is a fast network.

Sprint comes along, brings up this new light square company who is going to steam role their LTE network developement. this is a HUGE threat to verizons business. you (assuming you are a marketing director at verizon), think to yourself how terrible it is going to be for you when sprint starts throwing ads around TV "the fastest NOW network, and not expensive... with unlimited data."

sprint will destroy them in the marketing world with a fast LTE network. verizon has nothing anymore to market except oh cool the razr 5.

you, as verizon, with billions of dollars at risk due to this huge threat, and that IS a huge threat, do whatever you need to do to oust their progress.

The government officials failing them was absolute bull**** from what i read about it, and the GPS arguement is just a puppet show for the bigger show going on behind stage. i honestly wouldn't be surprised if verizon had something to do with it.

how they HELL do they get more customers when somebody else is offering the same speed network, same coverage, unlimited data, at a marginally cheaper price?

you fail because you see it in black and white by saying "verizon is not opposing light square"... exactly, they are opposing sprint. does anybody have to spell it out that verizon is not interested in a company like lightsquare? come on. the oppositing is with the company light square is affiliated with. open your eyes.

---------- Post added at 09:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 AM ----------

want another example of this kind of bull ****? look up the FDA seeking to ban those little electronic cigarettes... on the grounds that they "could be" unhealthy. they are trying to stop them from being sold. why? because they are selling off the shelves like hot cakes and that is a threat to who? tobacco companies.

ask me how that makes sense to ban a little water vaporizer that burns nicotine when ****ING CIGARETTES ARE KILLING PEOPLE EVERY DAY. this is the bull **** going on with big companies like this. our government officials are ass wipes that get bought off to have private agendas carried forward into action. open your eyes to this and stop being a sheople.
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
You need to adjust your tone. Of course nobody needs to "spell it out that verizon is not interested in a company like lightsquare". But what somebody DOES need to explain to you, apparently, is Sprint hasn't even come out and supported Lightsquared. On the contrary, they put the plan in motion to sever their relationship with Lightsquared. And this is the same Sprint that just flexed their government influence muscle to kill the AT&T T-Mobile merger.

I understand that Verizon is a big company (with no ties to the GPS industry though, so kill that nonsense). But for every Verizon, there is a Sprint, T-Mobile, Cricket, Metro, and even AT&T. Lightsquared wasn't owned by Sprint- they said they wanted to sell their LTE service wholesale to any carrier that wanted it. There was no exclusive agreement or anything.

So why aren't any of these companies that would have surely been interested in a wholesale agreement coming to Lightsquared's defense? And why isn't Verizon (or any other carrier) coming out against Lightsquared? For all you know, Verizon could have been planning to use Lightsquared's network too.

And if Verizon was really against Lightsquared, they could and probably would have just bought them.

I understand the conspiracy theory. You don't have to act like I'm some moron who doesn't know what you're talking about. I'm just saying you have to be a real nutjob if you actually believe that is what's happening in this instance.

I totally believe there are many conspiracies involving large corporations like Verizon and the government. I just don't see this being an example of one.

Now if Lightsquared was allowed to proceed even though we know it interferes with some GPS units, then I would have to wonder if there was a conspiracy to allow it. Because even if those devices are old, they were still built to spec for the spectrum as allocated at the time they were built. Nobody's device should become obsolete just to satisfy Lightsquared.
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:
right, i see your point. it sounded extreme i know, i was just using that as an example, not saying that is REALLY what is happening.

and there could be way more to it than that as well, like i said just because it doesn't make sense to us ya know, doesn't mean that it doesn't make sense to them.
[HTC EVO 3D] Whosdaman:
You know why sprint hasn't? Because they don't need them! I'm telling you they don't need lightsquared. It was a mutually exclusive relationship between them
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
Yeah, I totally agree. Sprint had LTE plans before Lightsquared, and their network vision plan (or whatever they are calling it) did not involve Lightsquared anyway.

People here seem to think that Lightsquared was Sprint's end all be all for LTE. That simply isn't the case. Sprint was doing Lightsquared a favor, not the other way around.

That is a big reason why the Verizon conspiracy doesn't make any sense. Stopping Lightsquared doesn't hurt Sprint's LTE rollout at all.
[HTC EVO 3D] tailsthecat3:
We'll see.

I'm not expecting anything magnificent from Sprint.
[HTC EVO 3D] Whosdaman:
Sprint has already begun their own lte rollout and 4 or 5 cities are already turned on and ready to go.

From what I've heard from a source at Ericsson that 10 cities in the Southeast are expected to be anniversary next month. That's just in the southeast alone!
[HTC EVO 3D] brownhornet:
Oh please, Sprint could've used all of the help that they could get. They are still in debt to the government, still posting net loss for subscribers every quarter as well as financial losses every quarter. They may not be doomed by Lightsquared not panning out but you're crazy if you really believe they don't care.

Yes, they'll be able to deploy LTE on their own (which 9 times out of 10 won't be as fast) but they will definitely feel the effect of this one way or another. Let's not act like Sprint couldn't use every dime and every helping hand that they can get.
[HTC EVO 3D] WatermelonSlim:
Actually, Sprint already has LTE in several cities right now. Lightsquared doesn't have any LTE rolled out anywhere. So this is obviously that 1 time out of 10 where Sprint did it faster on their own.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mattridge:
Wow, that sounds like more grand conspiracy. If you missed it, I stated I wanted the plan to succeeed. Too bad I can recognize the flaws in a plan that I wished had worked, but am willing to admit it, and now advocate for rethink, redesign, retask. If the people at LightSquared had recognized that themselves it might have tirned out better. Instead they might lave everyone looking at all new plans with skepticism and distrust.

Like the other guy said; what is more likely the case, a grand conspiracy, or a bad plan?
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:
a planned grand conspiracy? lol
[HTC EVO 3D] Mattridge:
Tinfoil hats do not protect against bad plans

:eek: and it seems no amount of money can either
[HTC EVO 3D] Whosdaman:
I guess you haven't seen the leaked speedtest videos?

Also sprint has been losing less and less money and subscribers every quarter. In fact last quarter they netted a gain in subs. They are announcing their 4Q results next month and I guarantee they will look even better.

And Sprint is in debt just like everyone else. Sprint just paid off 3 huge bonds they had with the government and month ago, so they obviously aren't doing too bad.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
if you wanna believe everything you see then go right ahead. its very hard to believe a kid like that that lives in the kinda place he does got sent a early release modem from sprint to test out.

just saying.

i know the ip's match up with sprints and all that but just look at some of his videos and its very hard to believe anything he says....least to me.
[HTC EVO 3D] bfmetcalf:
Can't say I'm all that surprised. The flying community has been up in arms about this too. I think GPS was the firm winner from the beginning.

I have used Mikg as a daily driver for forever and it is a no-brainer to recommend that.

However I recently loaded Warm TwoPointThree and it nothing but amazing. I have tried 3.5s before and they were sluggish and battery was an issue. Myn's ROM is snappy with power saving built in. It does have the Wimax and SMS problem other 3.5 have.

I would recommend Myn's TwoPointThree if you can do without 4G and the sms isn't an issue... Otherwise use MikG as it is just such a solid (and great) ROM.

Hi everybody,

I am new in the forum and new to android.

I need some help please…

I installed the I5500LUYJPL firmware on my Samsung GT-I5500 using

“Odin v4.28 & Ops File” following the instructions I found in the forum and all went perfect. After I downloaded few apps from android market. I have set the display to go off after 30 sec and I have set a password to lock the phone.. After couple days every approx. 10 min the display comes on asking the password to unlock the phone.

I don’t know if it’s a kind of interference of any of the apps I’ve downloaded.

Any suggestion please?

Thanks in advance guys.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cal21:
Hey man its your settings i had the same issue its because you have the password active the only work around that i found for it was to to use a lock screan replacement app. By the way in running dashblacks froYo based rom.

I have had friends with cm 7 on the device but their lock screan actually rebooted the device. If this happens i would suggest re flashing as this seems to correct this issue aswell.

I think this is also applicable for the nexus s
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] Lirankn:
You're right I guess it does..

I remember on AOSP 4.0.1 it worked flawless but now it's choppy like that.. Hopefully the new OTA that will fix battery life will also bring back DIVX support..
