[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Pierrot Lunaire:
I've been using HyperDroid rom for a long time and been having issues with my navigation software for a while and I'm not sure what the exact problem is.

I'm using iGO My Way and sometimes the GPS will work fine for a while and then a lot of times it loses signal after about 4 minutes and won't lock back on until I reboot the phone and restart the program.

Then at other times the phone gets hot and will just freeze.

I also noticed after these things happen it won't help turning the GPS on/off, it will keep draining the battery even if I turn it off. I always have to reboot to get everything back to normal.

So I don't know if the GPS module is bad, or if it's not a good idea to use iGO.

I haven't tried using other navigation software since I need an offline one with maps of Israel. I don't have a data plan.

I did use SportyPal many times in the past for cycling with GPS and it never froze.

Try to use Sygic for a week...with this one I doesn't had any of your issues since android was given to our leo!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Pierrot Lunaire:
Hey thanks! I gave Sygic a try and the GPS actually connects much faster and so far I didn't lose signal in the middle. Also the phone doesn't get as hot as with iGO. It only froze once, but I'll keep testing it. It's much smoother and faster than iGO though.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Pierrot Lunaire:
Well, sadly, I lose signal with Sygic also...

I don't know what the problem is :/
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kaps:
Sygic

i have been using Sygic from quite a while now. It does not works well with few of the ROMS.

Currently i am using American Android 2.3.7 and it works like a charm for me with it.

Which ROM are you using ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Pierrot Lunaire:
HyperDroid 5.8.0 but seems like no one else is complaining about GPS issues.

Could be the radio version (2.15.50.14) or maybe the GPS module on my phone is defected...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ANDYMURAT:
chance your rom

You can change your rom bro.I think you have to:)

Because radio is not problem 2.15....... is very good.I am using same radio,but different rom.I havent problem with igo or sygic:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Pierrot Lunaire:
Yeah but I like HyperDroid. It's fast and stable!

I'm waiting for the ICS roms to get better... then I'll probably switch.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tzoykas:
Hello

Sorry for bumping this but I have exactly the same problem. This has nothing to do with Sygic. The problem can arise with any application that uses the GPS and fails to shut it off properly (at least that's what I understand). From the moment that this happens, the GPS doesn't work anymore, heats up the phone and drains the battery fast. The only way to get it back working is to reboot the phone. Turning the GPS off and on, doesn't change anything.

I had this problem since 2.3.7. I had found a kernel update that had fixed the problem in that version (dorimanx's kernel but I can't remember the version) but since I upgraded to ICS and now JB the problem came back. With JB it works much better but it is there. With ICS it was a nightmare. I have tried many (over 10) different ROMs and each and every one of them had the problem. This is something that has been around for ages and nobody seems to have found the real cause or a remedy. I'd love to cure it since I love my HD2 and it's the only thing that is marring its performance. Have you had any success with it?

Regards

George

Had the same problems with most of the sensation or other sense Roms. The problem is solved since i use 4.x.x Roms as dataonsd installations. Now googlemaps works like a charm:D. Love the traffic info
[Motorola Droid X2] xtel:
I'm not sure if other X2's do this, but my battery runs fine. I get a solid 10 hours of hard use out of it.

But lately I noticed that if I simply reboot I get another 20%-50% out of it. Yesterday, it was down to around 30%, restarted, went back up to 80% and drained normally the rest of the night.

Is this normal? Is there a fix or something I can do? I wish I could just get the most out of the battery without having to restart.

I'm just running rooted 2.3.4. I do the whole drain it to 0% once a month thing & fully charge.

--

P.S. I'm not making this up. Lol.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
2.3.4 is the problem. There is a battery bug in the software where it reports less battery power than you have. Then, when you reboot, it might shoot up 5% to 10%.

Many custom ROMs have a fix in it. Not sure what the fix is or if you can apply it to the stock ROM.

Eclipse 2.0.x has the fix, but it also requires updating to the unofficial 2.3.5 OTA upgrade.

CM7 is based on 2.3.4 kernel and seems to have the issue resolved as well.
[Motorola Droid X2] xtel:
I see. Well, thank you for your help. Sorry if this is a repeated topic.

I just got started in the whole root/flashing "scene" so I'll have to see what I can do about CM7 now. :)
[Motorola Droid X2] robocuff:
For those that want to stay on the stock rom, the fix is here.
[Motorola Droid X2] xtel:
Thanks, I'll try this out later. :)

[Motorola Droid X2] robocuff:
You're welcome. Hope it works for you.

I bought my mother an x2, rooted and flashed CM7, she gets around 15 hours on the stock battery.

You will notice a huge change in performance, battery and more while you flash any ROM... Good luck, just follow the tutorials here in the forum.

Hey can anyone help with my battery prob? I got the extended battery from verizon I wiped battery stats after draining it fully and recharging fully twice. I'm running eclipse 1.3, speedy v7, and the cdma unthrottle mods. For some reason my phone eats this battery faster than my stock battery.

I have a problem trying to run a backup by selecting the Batch option and then running a backup of all apps and data but after complete just a few percent the phone completely locks up. With the phone unresponsive my only option is to long press the power button to switch off. Once rebooted performing a backup will then work (sometimes not).

Has anyone else experienced this?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonny68:
Also ive noticed If i delete a TB backup to make a new one it wont backup properly until you reboot, well it might appear as it is backing up but it will go from 0% to 100% in less than a minute so it means it didn't backup properly whereas if you reboot and then select batch backup it should take up to and over 5 minutes to complete the backup depending on how many apps you have.

Hi guys,

yesterday i rooted my device, did downgrade to 1.31 (followed instructions on Cyanogenmod wiki and from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1223950 ) then rooted the phone successfully.... before root i was able on 2.2 froyo normally access internet, phone connected and started recieveing data etc... but now on the 2.1 version i installed (rootedupdate.zip) , when i connect to on wifi, i am not able to get any data from the internet, wifi is connected but nothing is going trough... i have tried several radios ( 05,21,26L,13) ... (unforutnatelly i dont remember which radio i had before starting doing all this changes) ....

maybe i am not following correct procedure when flashing radios ... doing it over CWM 2.05.7 , radio change is visible in the recovery menu where HBOOT version is mentioned etc, also in the system itself... so i assume i am doing it correctly :)

does anybody know what can i do now... thanks

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Umbardacil:
Hi. I've successfully flash my first ROM - Runnymede AIO V6.5 Special Edition.

BTW: It's look awesome - but has some bugs, which are pain in the ass - but that's not a point.

The point is, that I wanted to change my boot up&down animation. And everytime I want to change them, I'm holding down power button, choosing power off, and the phone just plays the down animation, instead of shut down the system. I've tried to put them by two locations:

/data/local

and

/system/customize/resources/

both locations doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

And the second question: how to change splash screen? The method with ADB failed...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kotag82:
are you s-off?

in runny AiO both animation are in /data/local btw changing downanimation is not recommended due to battery drain

Did you untick fastboot in settings/power?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Umbardacil:
Yes and yes ;) I'm S-OFF, and fastboot is unticked. Regarding power drain: is there an utility in this ROM for battery management? How can I manage it?

Does Sony DK10 LiveDock work with E15i?

I want to connect a USB hard disk to my SE E15i, and wondered if this is possible with the DK10 LiveDock.

Here's a description of it's capabilities -

- USB-equipment such as USB-Sticks connect and contents copy

- If the phone supports USB OTG (Android2.3), connect USB equipment such as Gamepad/Keyboard/Mouse

Compatible with -

Xperia active, Xperia arc, Xperia mini, Xperia mini pro, Xperia neo, Xperia pro, Xperia ray

I'm not sure exactly what the E15i is, but apparently (according to the Forum) it's an X8.

My E15i has firmware version 2.1-update1, kernel 2.6.29, and build # 2.1.1.C.0.0 if that helps.

Thanks :).

PS On a side note, has anyone used this docking station with other phones successfully? My other phone is a Samsung Galaxy Note (which incidentally works with most USB devices already), it would be nice to use this Dock to attach multiple USB devices :).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Looks like Arc(LT15i&a) and Arc S(LT18i&a) got new fw certified on PTCRB, 4.0.2.A.0.69.

Neo didn't got it, but Neo V did, though only MT11

a

version :)

Pro also didn't get it.

If we go by the dates of certifying other(older) fw's for those phones, they are on same date, so to be honest I don't expect it for other phones, Neo V(i) or for Neo(a or i)
