Thanks for your awnser.

Does the satellie appears normally on GPS Test?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] k_myk:
Is that what you wanted to see? :)

EDIT: I know it's not from SOLA, but I think it should look the same way:)

Hm I was talking about the GPS test app on Market. (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5jaGFydGNyb3NzLmdwc3Rlc3QiXQ..)

I attached what I have.

BTW is this the app from the service menu ? How do you have access to it ?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] k_myk:
Go to dialer and dial : *#*#7378423#*#* (service) then go to service test and on the list there should be "GPS":)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kess78:
Thanks for the tips.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kess78:
Thanks for the tips.

My device get stuck on Please wait after hitting the GPS Location Test... Hope its not a hardware pb :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] k_myk:
I'm sorry to say that but it looks like a hardware fault. If restart or wipe don't fix this, it does look like a hardware issue. Are you running stock software?

I'm not familiar with SOLA but it shouldn't be that different:(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kess78:
i tried again the gps location test this morning and it fix after 9 minutes !

Then i tryed again and it was in 13 seconds. Satellites now show ok on GPS Test...

I think GPS needed to warm up Lol.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] k_myk:
I'm glad to hear that:)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] stalvekio:

Will KA02 SSpeed Custom Rom remove this problem?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] stalvekio:
Does your GPS still has problems or is it working like charm??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SharpnShiny:
I got mine just yesterday and the gps doesn't seem to work well either. I updated to the latest available to me on simfree and it's

6.0.B.3.184	ECO	Jul 30, 2012

http://www.ptcrb.com/vendor/complete/view_complete_request_guest.cfm?modelid=21035

OK actually I think it does get better as you use it - it must store some temporary data. It first didn't work well, then took 43 seconds, now 18 seconds. That's OK with me!

GPS problem

My Xperia U seems to have the same issue...

The devices that came with the NovaThor U8500 chipset are experiencing this GPS problem. It is a hardware problem.

When I use the A-GPS function (using 3g data during the satellite search to calculate the distance of the device until the antennas making a triangulation) i can get signal much faster.

Unfortunately the GPS receiver of these devices is disappointing.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] solidghost9:
You're right. I can't help but noticed that most android devices that i've seen don't have satisfactory GPS experience. When i compare them to other phones this is the only area that lacks the most. Let's just hope for better in the future
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] manudo:
This dude right here is the file that you've to edit to get GPS working, there is a post in this forum that fixes GPS problems in any phone.

[Q] When rooting my Gtab2 P5110 European model according to "[How To] Root - Galaxy Tab 2 10.1", (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1657056) the file cwm-root-gtab2a.zip cannot be found;

I followed the steps as explained.

Used ODIN to flash recovery.tar.md5

I had copied the file cwm-root-gtab2a.zip to the internal SD card.

Rebooted into recovery

selected the option "install zip from sdcard."

Then I cannot see the file cwm-root-gtab2a.zip.

Actually An error is displayed: Cannot mount SD card

also the approach to mount /SDcard in recovery shows the error

why can /SDcard not be mounted?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dagoeb:
[A] use external /SDcard to find cwm-root-gtab2a.zip

Figured out a workaround.

Instead of storing cwm-root-gtab2a.zip on /mnt/sdcard

I copied the file to /mnt/extSdCard and ran the process again.

(you need an external SDCard in the Tab2 microSD slot)

Now I could install cwm-root-gtab2a.zip.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK007:
the instructions specifically said you must use the sdcard, not the internal memory. your sd card is extSdCard. So not to be rude but you made a thread that just says what the how-to guide tells people what they should do.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PanchoPlanet:
Why would you need an external card, when you download it goes to internal SD. As in root/sd card/download. When you look in root/ext sd card you don't see the file.

Pp.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dagoeb:
To Darunion

you are fully right, if I would have read the instructions more carefully I would have used an external SD card. As I did not have one I ran into the problems that CWM did not find the cwm-root-gtab2a.zip.

Thanks for reflection.

to PanchoPlanet

the external SD card /mnt/extSdCard is needed as else CWM recovery will not find the file. this is what happened to me when I tried to root my european P5110 and why I issued this thread. It is clearly described in the instructions as Darunion states.

Doesn't work for me

With a root file explorer /mnt/emmc seems to be ok, but system can't mount it as external storage.

Also, I`ve selected internal storage at Storage Configuration.

My G-Nex has been shutting off or rebooting randomly.

It started happening the other day. I'm on liquid smooth 1.4.

the resetting only happens when the screen is off, and never happens when the phone is plugged in.

any thoughts? ideas? need more info?

any help is much appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] El Daddy:
My guess would be a rom and/or kernel issue. Flash a different rom or go back to stock and see if the problem persists.

It might just be the graphical shell crashing. Its happened to me before while listening to music and the music didn't stop.

Just to clarify... phone is completely shutting off. When I hold the power button down it starts to boot up. No battery pull necessary

i wiped all data and reinstalled liquid, and it happened again.

incredibly frustrating.

will now just go back to stock.

Just to update in case anyone cares... I have not experienced the issue since swapping my extended battery for the stock battery... which I tried before going back to stock.

Hello again....i'm really struggling trying to get my xperia s rooted and install recovery. I cannot get my head around it. I feel stupid, but i did my one x with no problems but i cant seem to get my head around this. I unlocked the bootloader. I'm assuming it is unlocked as when it completed it said "finished" in the cmd prompt box and my phone had reset etc... I don't understand about doomlord recoveries etc. Which kernel do i use to root my phone and then install recovery? Does the kernel root and install recovery, or do i have to do it seperately? Any help would be appreciated. I apologise for the noob question. I have my fastboot files, so i just need to know which version kernel/recovery i use. I've been reading for ages but i cant seem to get my head around it. Thanks in advance.

1. If you only want to root and want to keep the stock kernel (no overclock, under-voltage, etc), Advanced Stock Kernel with Recovery is your choice. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1635582

2. If you want to root, overclock, under-voltage and some advance stuffs, DooMKernel can serve your for these. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1557452

Thanks for that. how do i enter recovery mode? Vol up and usb cable is blue light which is fastboot, but what about entering recovery? Do you have to use usb also?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tot_anusak:
DooMLoRD explained this in this thread. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1594828. Scroll down to the "how to enter recovery?" section.

The other way is using "Reboot into Recovery" menu in ROM Manager app from Play Store. Please take a look at the "THE RECOVERY IS COMPATIBLE WITH ROM MANAGER!" section in the same thread.

Hello all!

I'm currently looking into buying the gsm galaxy nexus (S. Korea) and am torn between it and the Galaxy s3, which hasn't been released here yet. I was just hoping to hear from Nexus owners, is there any choppiness or lag to the Nexus (stock version) at all? (app drawers, moving in homescreens, transitions to menus, etc.)

I saw the video posted by xda demoing the S3 and was impressed by how smooth and seamless all the transitions were! Honestly, I love the Nexus design more than the S3 and don't really like the way touchwiz looks.

I don't mind that the Nexus falls behind in terms of specs, I'd just love to hear that day to day use of the phone is a smooth and frustration-free experience...

Thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shintze:
After about 6 months of having this phone I can tell you I've had no lag issues whatsoever with stock. I've used animated wallpapers, multiple browsers, graphic intensive games, hd movies and do not remember the phone staggering at all.

In contrast my transformer prime does lag all the time, which doesnt make sense, since the hardware specs are better. But thats not related to your question.

Anyway, if you have the chance to try it somewhere, do so. It's always better to see it for yourself.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marcusva79:
Well said wiredpirate. I have no lag issues here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mataee:
Awesome! good to know, thanks guys.

Wiredpirate, do you think you can tell me what you mean by "knowing what I'm doing?" Does that mean using compatible roms/kernels combinations? Moderate widget use?

Do you have any recommendations on kernels? (I'd like to keep stock rom)

Factors that are important to me are:

-smooth, stutter-free performance

-good battery life

-good phone reception/ 3g signal (don't know if this can be influenced by the kernel)

I DON'T plan on doing any intensive (3D) gaming. Web browsing will be fairly important. Customization is not important whatsoever; I love the completely vanilla ICS. Any recommendations would be amazing...Thanks!

Sorry if I'm not supposed to ask another question mid-thread like this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WiredPirate:
As far as a kernel I am happy with Franco. Definitely moderate widget use. Don't have to many apps that run in the background, or that stay awake with a background process. Use spare parts to set window animations and transitions to fast. Use a third party Launcher like Nova and set the speeds to fast, or in the case of Nova "faster than light". Don't have too many accounts syncing in accounts & sync. Set other apps not to sync or to rarely sync. Use "full power" setting in kernel. There has to be 10-20 other things I can't think of right now, when in doubt don't change the settings. Somebody else jump in with things you know helps. It's easy for me to change something and be able to tell if it slows down the phone, then I know not to use those settings.
