Explaining a little background.

GPS time is supposed to be collected from the gps signal, so any device that has the ability to recognize a gps signal, can sync their internal clock to the atomic clocks that are on the gps satellites.

GPS time is used on some activities, to precisely log the gps track. They are common on hanggliding and paragliding races, where we use gps tracks as the main method for measuring the performance of the competitors.

All the pilots have the same exact time on their devices.

There are some flight logger applications that uses the gps capabilities of the android devices, such as gaggle and xcsoar.

There´s also a nice application called gps time, that you can download for free from the market, in order to sync your internal android clock with the atomic clock of the gps satellite network. It does not use data but only gps radio frecuencies, so it will work without phone coverage, or without wifi on.

Last night I found out that my Inspire 4G android phone is not actually reading the gps time. I changed the internal clock of the phone on 25 minutes while unticked the autosync option.

Then when opening any gps application (gps test, gps essentials, gps status, gps time, xcsoar) the gps time would be the "wrong system time".

Testing the same on a Samsung galaxy tab without gsm capabilities (I.E. without 3g and without agps i´m guessing), the gps time would be the correct gps time, regardless of the system time that I use or miss-set.

I´ve double checked the gps time with an actual garmin gps (gecco) that I use for hanggliding, and while the samsung galaxy (android) would show the exact time, the inspire 4g will show the wrong one (all three devices were of course, having good gps readings with more than 6 sats).

So, I´m a little worried that the gps time is not being used on the Inspire, or somehow the internal clock is overruning the gps time sentences.

I´m hopping for a fix. I tried messing up with the build.prop to disable agps (set "ro.ril.def.agps.mode = 0") under \system to see if the agps was overwhelming the gps time signal, but there was no luck.

Any ideas or any help on this matter would be really appreciated.

I also invite you guys to try it for yourself.

Just download gps time, and clocksync (the last one would use network to sync the clock with an atomic clock, that should be pretty close to the gps time).

Try to see if the phone is actually using the gps time or the internal system time.

Wrong place for this buddy. This is is not development related
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nick281051:
Ugh one of these threads again
[HTC Inspire 4G] danielvelez:
No!!! Wait.

It´s different from the other "NO GPS SIGNAL" kind of posts.

I don´t have a problem with the gps signal.

I put it on the developer section as there has been some software related issues around gps and fixes that seems to be related to developers.

This is definitively an issue that can cause a lot of trouble on some software developers, as any syncing between multiple devices using gps time could lead to problems.

I was hopping that maybe one of the developers that have worked with the gps drivers or the parameters of the config files for the agps will give some insight on why this is happening and if this happens to everybody or just some custom roms.

If the problem affects all the roms, then It should be addressed by the developers, I´m guessing.

I have been using Link2sd for a while now and just wanted to know is there a way to get all my apps/games back after flashing a new rom or after factory resetting my phone.

There should be coz all the apps and there data, .dex files and lib files etc, are already there on the second partition. Isn't there anything I can do. I just dont want to reinstall everything again.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] leodasal2:
if you didn't wipe/format the 2nd partition, all the files will still be there, just select "relink library files"
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] wasim0:
I did tried "Relink lib files" option but still nothing.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Raol Emostar:
Wipe your partition and reinstall.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] savie:
I think link2sd just move app, lib, and dalvik-cache if i'm not wrong so data still in internal and will gone after flashing.

-Just Farmer and Newbie Android-
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] wasim0:
Yeah thats exactly what I was trying to avoid

Well I guess I can't. Can it be done using other apps like a2sd, data-2d etc.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] savie:
Yup you can. But for a2sd must move data app to sd-card, usually use titaniumbackup.

http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/03/galaxy-s-iii-whats-changed/

Personally, I prefer the looks and size of Gnexus. SGS3 has the power but it is too big IMO.

One interesting fact is that SGS3 has a menu button and no recent button, is this going to cause app design fragmentation?

I attempted to root a Kindle Fire Running 6.2.2 but was using a version on the Kindle Fire Utility to root 6.3. TWRP installed but now I'm stuck at the yellow triangle logo.

The biggest problem is my Window 7 laptop won't recognize the Fire when I plug it in with my USB cable. Therefore, none of the unbricking, KFU, or ABD utilities/commands are getting through to the device.

Has any one encountered this before?

(I've gotten stuck in a bootloop with TWRP before on another rooted Kindle Fire and that was easy to fix.) I don't know what to do when you laptop won't recoginize the Fire as a connected device.

I've rooted another Fire (though it was running 6.3) on this same laptop so the Kindle Fire drivers were installed.

I'd appreciate any help with this!!!
[General Topics] jianC:
1) Unplug your kindle

2)

3) After you follow those steps, look for any android/adb devices and DELETE them from device manager

4) Re-plug your kindle fire usb into computer

5) Windows should now auto detect drivers (if you have windows 7) and you can use fastboot to reboot your device or flash files.
[General Topics] morgan4k:
Thank you so much for your reply! I tried what you said.

I set my Device Manager to show hidden devices. "Android Phone" appears as a device. When I expand it, I see "Android ABD Interface". The Android Phone device displays for a few seconds and then disappears. I hear the Windows OS make a tone as it appears and disappears. If I shutdown the Kindle Fire and power it on again, the device manager does the same thing.

I should probably explain more how I bricked my Fire.

I tried to root it as I explained in my first post. It was unsuccessful. When I realized the Fire was runnning 6.2.2, I tried to upgrade the firmware to 6.3.1 from the Amazon site, thinking I'd do that and then run the rooting bat file again. I didn't think to uninstall any of the rooting software before trying the update because the root was unsuccessful.

The Fire started the update but stopped almost immediately and got stuck at the TWRP logo.

Is there any thing else I can try?

will Amazon replace it or is it obvious you attempted to unlock the tablet? I mean is there and indication on the boot screen?

Yes, it's obvious I was rooting it. To return it to Amazon (or the retailer in my case), I need to get it to boot normally, then reset it to the factory default.

Just going to say, it doesn't matter what the screen size is, it he amount of pixels it has. The reason for longer battery in HTC is because of the S4 can handle processes more efficiently and faster.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kitila:
Also the HTC one has no removeable battery.but the one thing I can say is it is HTC and they do make a damn good device
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 2hvy4grvty:
S3 vs S4 is a HUGE change. You can't write it off as a minor point. The HTC One S is simply a better phone than the S2 at this point. But is it good enough to warrant an upgrade? Not really.

If the One X makes its way over, then I'd absolutely jump ship.

This is so false. Like to the point where I don't even know where the begin.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] josemedina1983:
it might not be worth upgrading it but it doesn't make the One S the loser. The Snapdragon S4 it is a big step up from the S3, also the HTC One S have better build materials not some cheap plastic chrome that scratches even with a case on. Personally I wouldn't upgrade the One S or even the GSIII those devices don't bring anything new to the table.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] scuzzbag87:
ive had my phone for about 5 -6 months not one scratch on the chrome part (i dont see any chipping) maybe u mean tiny ass meniscule scratches that u cant even see if so god ur so over observant. i NEVER use any stupid cases. idk what the hell ur talking about.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jonathan3579:
The One S battery life far exceeds that of the GS2 and I thought that phone had amazing battery life. I'm averaging 26 hours heavy use with 4G on all day.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Killbynature:
Qualcomm did an excellent job on their processor. Instead of hoping on the quadcore bandwagon like nividia and samsung.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] adslee:
You obviously didn't do a very good job at your research if you think that the One S and the SII have the same camera. 8 MP cameras are not universally equivalent just because they have the same amount of megapixels.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
really? FAR exceeds?? it'll be awesome if the battery life is better but far exceeds is something i would say when comparing the gs2's battery life to the amaze/sensation (1.5x-2x more)

but that's awesome.

OP, you should really have hands on before reviewing more. It is hard reviewing off "researches" when a lot of things comes out bias and all.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
i would have to agree with this, I doubt the s2 is on par with HTC's camera, they excel in that department starting with the mt4gs, i doubt their camera has degraded since the amaze.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gthmcty111:
I went out and got the HTC phone (I have 3 upgrades on my account) and I have played with it for a few days and I have t say that a few things bug me about the phone.

The size of the screen can become annoying because I am acclimated to the SGS2 screen size and keyboard, you can increase the font size on the HTC but you will suffer in the keyboard auto word options.

The camera does take some good photos BUT...when you look at them on the actual phone after you snap a pic, it looks as though they are somewhat blurry, but after you email them to yourself and view them on a PC they are VERY clear and detailed.

HTC Sense 4.0 is good but it can also be a little annoying.

People complain about the phone only coming with 16 GB of memory BUT you also get 25gb of drop box memory for free and also Skycloud for an additional 7gb for free and if you have google drive you have an additional 5gb there as well.

Data Speeds are wayyyy down compared to the SGS2 I could not muster up data speeds faster than 6-7mb down and 1-2mbs up.

Overall this phone will take some time to become a favorite but I am hooked on the SGS2.

THIS JUST MY OPINION and ONLY MY experience......

This thread will be constantly updated anytime possible, because I won't have as much time due to upcoming AP Exams in the next week or two.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aranurea:
I have to say that I don't agree. If the International GSII had the same battery as the Tmo GSII and you left both on a white screen, the Tmo would die before the International one. Obviouly I'm talking about a controlled experiment in which the only variable is the screen size and not processes running, processor and others. But things are never ideal for experiments.

I've been messing with a few. I am not impressed. Htc could give us a qwerty keyboard phone that was up to date, but that's about it. I'm never going to buy another htc phone. I love my g2, though
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jonathan3579:
Far exceeds to me includes time on cell data and screen on time. I've never really made an entire day safely with 4G on. Don't get me wrong, the T989 beat the Galaxy Nexus but this phone has the best battery of them all. I easily get around 5-6 hours screen on time while staying on 4G all day doing my routine of texting, YouTube videos, and music streaming on Pandora. I can only imagine how it'd go with bigger battery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iwasblown:
Honestly the larger the in reguard to more pixels the better. Higher res on larger screens are better than on smaller screen to keep up with the screen growth so.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fraz82:
reviews of the HTC one S, do tend to point out that the camera results aren't always superb, but the software is excellent.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ebatr8:
I have the one s, and I had the sgs2 before I started using my amaze. The one s is a superior phone, users that love there galaxy s2 may hate or disagree but it just is. The battery is beyond the galaxy s2, it last longer stock then the galaxy s2 with custom roms or kernels. The screen looks much nicer without the blobs and the resolution is much better. The processor really shows its power considering the amaze has crappy battery life due to its resolution, sense and overall software on this phone all things which strain the processor. Now the one s runs sense, same resolution with a better screen, and a smaller battery yet the processor handles it like a champ and achieves bettery battery. The one s is thinner, has a camera that takes way better photos then the gs2 and feels better in hand because of its materials. This all makes it a better phone but it still has its flaws the gs2 has a better front camera, expandable memory, and will probably have more development. Point is the one s is a better phone but the gs2s development will keep it right up there with it until a better phone is released, I would personally choose the gs2 over the one s, which to get the best of both worlds I'm using the amaze as the camera is on par with the one s but at the sacrifice of battery life because it sucks :P. Those are my two cents from owning them both.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] quest4fire:
Dont forget that Amaze has light leakage around screen glass and inferior build quality. The SGS2 is built well.....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aranurea:
Idk about everyone else, bit when my first year of this contract is over, I'm going straight for the Galaxy S III. I'm so hyped for it. I just hope that it still has 4 processors because LTE requires 2. That's why the One S was dumbed down from 4 processors to 2. I don't use LTE at all and never will because of battery consumption. I don't think T-Mobile even uses LTE at all.

Also I believe it was tegra 3 the didn't support 4g Samsung is using there own processors not tegra 3 so maybe it will support 4g I hope do but it is a cool phone and HTC will never beat Samsung. But personally I hope the T-Mobile note has quad core I think 4.8 inch screen is still too small for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
good comparative review. So like what many people are saying, the one s is a great quality phone, but it is not that much better than the s2 to have people rushing out to buy or upgrade to it. Not a great enough leap I guess. Glad to know, I'm usually one to play with new phones every couple months, but the gs2 has really satisfied my thirst.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aranurea:
I dont think that the GNote for tmo will have a quad core. Why would tmo and sammy sell Notes with a quad core when they are only a few months away from releasing the S III in the US and tmo as a confirmed vendor. It has a 5.3 or 5.5 in. Screen which would make it better than the S III for a lot of people and not to mention cheaper. Ill stick with my SII if the S III doesnt have 4 cores. Lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] KillaHurtz:
I'm not regretting the swap. The GS2 had horrible build quality, screen issues and a juvenile development section. Now is there a downside? Sure. The front facing camera is not a good as The gs2, and the internal storage leaves something to be desired. Other than that the pros far outweigh the cons. Seriously.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ramhardy:
why jump ship for a device that doesn't have expandable memory and non removable battery? its almost like comparing it to the "fruit"(dare I not mention its name) phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] KillaHurtz:
Some people like how well a phone performs & feels in hand, rather than something you can cram 5,000 FLACs onto. The battery on the One S is arguably the best I have seen for any smartphone.

*Remember this is a modding forum & I'm sure someone will figure a way out to expand the storage and battery at some point. Until then, I'm perfectly happy with my 10gb blazing past my old GS2.
