[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] 3103stefano3103:
I tried many different gps fixes.

But i found out that, with wifi i always have a correct location in maps.

But with 3g i don't. But if i first scan for satellites with angrygps and then open maps it finds teh location correct.

But it's very annoying if i have to scan every time to get a good location.

Does anybody knows how to fix this?

Officially supported at last

Today, AGPS Patch has reached a total number of 28 officially supported devices. Support was added for the Asus Transformer TF101, Samsung's Galaxy Nexus, Samsung's Galaxy S I9000, and HTC's One X.

I predicted that companies would get wiser and start providing properly built stock ROM's for GPS usage. That was incorrect. I'm willing to research and work with people to bring more devices into the fold.

There have been millions of downloads of my personal xtra.bin data and tens of millions of queries submitted through the DNS pool I maintain for Stratum II time servers. I lost track of the number of ROM's that have incorporated this patch. In fact, v3.x began 11 months ago and has brought worldwide help to the masses.

And remember, I don't have to release new versions of this patch locally because it has been so fine-tuned. But, I'm always working on the xtra.bin data almanac and the Stratum II time servers to keep this thing going strong.

To the few that have donated to support the many, thank you very much.

If anyone would like to continue to support this project

for growth in more devices and continual data provisioning, please consider donating as well.

You posted in SGS+ area but I didnt see in your list this phone. It is ok the patch for my SGS+. Texten words: I am just careful.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] BzArEx:
That's answer
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] tiberiuboboc:
So, why is posted in this area? Nevermind ...
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] crypted:
It's a mistake on my part. I will have to revise my list. This device is supported because the thread is here.

As you will see toward the bottom of my list, I copied "Samsung Galaxy S I9000" which is the base forum and not the Plus part, from the sub forum.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] tiberiuboboc:
Thanks, I understud. So, in this case I can use this patch, isn't?

Thanks for putting such effort in this, I've used the T-Mobile gps.conf for a while and it was always very good until we reached ICS/JB. then GPS sucked like hell. when you were lost you really couldn't get a route to the destination at all times.

I'm going to try your app and Ill report my experiences

If the performance is really neat, could I add it to my rom? with the Launcher icon hidden and integrated into the settings menu?

It's locking faster..problem is it is showing lock of accuracy more than 1000 feets...why would I need that? :S
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] dr.wtf:
imagine you are somewhere in the end of the end of the worlds ass and you dont have the slightest clue where to go. so you either wait for a fix so that your navigation system can calculate where to go or you can have something inaccurate as 1000 feet and your nav system still can roughly tell you a direction.

Re: AGPS Patch Galaxy S Plus 3.1 & 2.2 | GET BACK TO RAPID GPS LOCK, CAN LOCK MORE SA

You knw wat? Ur name totally suits u. After reading this post, I was like, wtf?

And the 1000ft accuracy will narrow down in a min or so, just w8. Thit generally happens when you are under a roof which is blocking the connection.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] dr.wtf:
whats not to understand? its inaccurate but it fixes faster so you can work earlier with the result.

Any idea?

Thank you

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiquau:
I was able to pair them but can't send file.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mountaindewmi:
Have you tried in webOS? I think it has something to do with the bluetooth address (not bluetooth name). They are the same in all the touchpads so although you can 'pair' it, they do not communicate with each other.

Here is my two touchpads (32Gb and 16Gb), same BT Address in Status.

I installed the CM7 port and the GApps, but my Google apps don't show up. I've tried reflashing the ROM and the GApps package over and over and clearing all the caches to no avail. Help? :(
[HTC ChaCha] ajeevlal:
you have to flash GAPPS separately. refer original post of CM7 thread and you will find the link
[HTC ChaCha] dftba:
That's what I did. I flashed the ROM then I flashed the GApps, but they're still not showing up.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Ok that's weird. Can you pinpoint the exact steps you performed from download to copying to erasing to booting up? Each and every step please.
[HTC ChaCha] dftba:
Sure thing.

I downloaded the ROM and the GApps package from the ROM's thread and stored the files on my desktop. While the downloads were going, I booted my phone into recovery and mounted the USB storage. I then plugged the phone into my computer and copied the files over before ejecting the USB device and unplugging the phone. I then wiped the user data, the cache, and the Dalvik cache and flashed the ROM, then, straight after, the GApps. I wiped the user data again just to be safe then rebooted back into the OS.

After it didn't work the first time, I downloaded the GApps again and copied them to my phone again, this time within the OS instead of the recovery. Rebooted, wiped user data, cache, and Dalvik cache, flashed the GApps, and nothing.

Not being sure if it was the ROM or the GApps package, I flashed the MIUI beta then flashed the GApps (using the same sequence of steps mentioned above) and it still didn't work, so it doesn't seem to be specific to CM7.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Ok try these steps:

1. Download the ROM

2. Download GApps from here: http://cmw.22aaf3.com/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip

3. Wipe the big 3's (user data, cache and dalvik-cache).

4. Flash the ROM.

5. Flash Gapps.

6. Boot without erasing anything.
[HTC ChaCha] dftba:
I followed your instructions exactly but I still have the same problem.

Interestingly, if I go into the list of installed applications in the settings, Market (but no other Google apps) shows up but it's greyed out and I don't have any options to run it or anything.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Crap. Something's really not right. Can you give it a try with the SuperOSR ROM? Need to see if it's specific to the CM build.

EDIT: Can you try searching for the Market .apk file around the forum and install it manually? It should be somewhere in Themes&Apps section. Give that a try before trying with the SuperOSR ROM. Wipe, re-flash ROM, flash Market.apk, reboot.

Reason: the gapps provided by CM team are old (v2 market) and it might be that Google does not support v2 anymore since they've switched to Play Store. (not sure).
[HTC ChaCha] dftba:
I did try with the MIUI ROM and the same thing happened, I don't think it's specific to your ROM build. Perhaps my phone just doesn't like Cyanogen's GApps package? No idea why that would be though.

Anyway, I did as you suggested and installed an APK and it worked! I found this one on Redmond Pie and put in the SD and installed it with the file browser on the phone. Seems to work fine so far :)
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
Awesome! :)
[HTC ChaCha] dftba:
While you're here, a bug I've noticed that's only popped up on your ROM is that, when I turn the phone off, sometimes the orange light stays on and the phone's completely frozen up until I pull the battery. It's only happened twice but I thought it might be something to look into.

Other than that, it's very good! I'm enjoying it, keep up the good work :)
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
It's a CWM based problem. Update your CWM recovery to the latest one from the CWM thread in the Dev section and you are good to go.

Way too many CWM's in two sentences..
[HTC ChaCha] dftba:
I'll do that now, cheers :)
[HTC ChaCha] MagicalSword:
Glad to know you are up and running, but it's still quite strange. Every time I flashed CM7.2 (it it was quite a lot of times :) GApps were there, Market included. Just running the Market app would actualize it to Play Store automagically.

Of course, as Alex says, it may not be supported by Google anymore, but still you should have gmail, etc from the zip file even without a working Play Store...

The issue was probably related to CWM, if you have an old enough version it could be messing up with the zip internals, but sometimes it's just anything else... (I installed the first CM9 alpha rom w/o problem, the second one wouldn't install, one week later, doing exactly the same with the same zip file, it installed flawlessly)

It may also be related to the specific terminal, I have noticed that depending on the device type (country of release, free or network operator locked, and so on) terminals behave a little bit different in some aspects (e.g. my GPS stopped working after unlocking the bootloader and was only fixed when I reflashed the radio firmware after getting S-OFF; and now, with the CM9 alpha, my keyboard won't get backlight while it's dark outside but adxl's is working fine, which is bad for debugging purposes, of course :-P )

If you could make a backup and install SuperOSR and see if everything works fine the first time (even if you go back to CM afterwards, as I did) it may help to understand the issue better... Or maybe just posting your phone's specific data (model, build, country, etc) may give us a hint.

We know that free UK terminals are somewhat different to Spain free terminals, and those are a bit different from Orange or Yoigo locked terminals... It may be related to hardware batches out fro the factory, who knows?

Enjoy your ChaChaCha! :-)
[HTC ChaCha] dftba:
I think the problem was my CWM in the end. After I upgraded it (that alone included some trial and error, eventually the fastboot method worked) the GApps zips worked fine.

So if anyone else has this problem, check your CWM version and upgrade it if you need to :)
[HTC ChaCha] abc_x3:
Can i Upgrade CWM without any change of my current OS ?

i actually couldnt go to Market after i flashed GServices. I downloaded newest Google Play in HTC Chacha apps, installed it and it work until now (of course wit GService flashed before).

Btw, how can i check my current CWM. Thanks!
[HTC ChaCha] The White Sock:
Similar problem...

Hello there!

I've came by to add my issue, similar to yours.

I was on CM7 too and wanted to try the SuperOSR ROM. I used the common steps for flash it (all cache Wiping and factory reseting, ROM installing, Gapps installing), rebooting my phone, connect it with a Google account, launched Gmail and then when I've arrived at a certain level of my mails, the app crash...

For the Google Play app, I've got a server connexion error...

It's like if all the Google's framework was here but totally not stable...

I've tried with an another ROM, the MUI ROM and everything works...

Like I said, I came from the CM7 ROM wich was working...

I thinks I will try to do those steps and if it does not work...

... this one.
[HTC ChaCha] Alex C.:
After that you can install from market any google app you want (talk, search, etc.).
[HTC ChaCha] The White Sock:
Strange... Was not working when I flashed the Gapps but worked when I've only flashed the ROM...
[HTC ChaCha] mariasheryll:
Hi, I registered in this forum just to say THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was searching for that appropriate GApps for the CM7 I installed previously with the GApps for Ginger Bread (not the same with this link you posted) and it gave me a headache too. I tried flashing for 3x & the Gapps were not working. Then I tried this link and VOILA! Now my smile is from ear to ear.. so SALAMAT! (Tagalog word for THANK YOU). I'm from Philippines anyway. I bookmarked this page for future reference. A million thanks to XDA Developers and it's helpful members & thanks for welcoming me even I'm a noob.. :laugh::laugh:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
Im guessing our phone uses the regular sized sim? The reason I ask is because Im thinking of switching to straight talk as tmobil just cut off my tethering.

Just trying to confirm what sim to get before spending the $15:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rod3:
Our phones use the regular sim card.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ramhardy:
why not just use simple mobile? it's like getting t-mobile service without dealing with t-mobile directly

http://www.mysimplemobile.com/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
Thanks for confirming. This is what I figured - nothing micro about the sim card in the back of my phone.

Straight talk is cheaper :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yurilebbie:
Why not keep tmobile, and tether anyway after you root and download a tethering app?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ramhardy:
this is true, however on the website it doesn't specify whether or not you'll be getting 3g data or EDGE, or even 4G.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
I am running the cm7 kang by eugene 373. Phone is already rooted.

Yesterday I couldnt access any websites. There was no anti-tethering tmobile software included on my device, and each site I tried to access would redirect to a tmobile webpage.

I've been tethering since i got the device with no issues and Im also on a prepaid contract.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bobby3306:
Did you use titanium backup to freeze the tethering app built in?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iLeopard:
Same here....are you using Google chrome by any chance? I know chrome has some fancy stuff that keeps it from accessing other sites. I simply used safari and it worked fine after that. Sucks that I can no longer use chrome but its whatevs really. I actually called T-Mobile about it since I have the 5GB data plan and tethering should be free with that, well it now turns out that tethering is 5 bucks extra on top of the 30.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
the cm7 port does not have the tethering apps built into it...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yurilebbie:
I would try to play dumb with T-Mobile and ask what is going on.

Remember that services like straight talk say that you get unlimited data but shut it off if you go above 2gb a month sometimes less. If you want some sources I can dig up some from howardforums links to show you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
Well if I cant tether on tmobile, then ill never use up all 5 gigs i pay for. It would make sense for me to have a plan that costs less and gives me less data.

If im stuck with 2gigs thats fine, since the bill will go from 70 to 45 per month... and ill pry only use about 2 gigs if tethering isnt an option.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Teo032:
5gb plans come with tethering now
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] iLeopard:
No it doesn't, its now 5 bucks more on top of the 30 for 5 Gigs of data.
