[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyllerbuzcut:
It's just the standard rom file from sammobile.It does come as a zip you know. If you unzip it, then use rar on it you can see all the bits. I thought if I just put a different zimage in there it would just go ahead and use that, but didn't seem to like it after I zipped it all back up again.

Tonight I've ended up getting chainfires excellent CF-Root kernel.Flashed that through odin, over my speedmod kernel.

Put just the factoryfs part of the stock rom zip onto the SD card and flashed that using the cwm app that CF-Root installs for you.. Now have CF-Root kernel and 4.0.4 firmware.

If you don't already have a "safe" kernel then I dunno what the brick chances would be, but since I had a safe one already I thought it couldn't hurt to try it out.

The reason I haven't flashed the hidden, cache, model and sbl parts of the zip is that simply they wouldn't fit on my SD card:( If it behaves funny or I can make space then I'll try the rest too. And the reason I didn't flash the zimage from the zip should be fairly obvious. Because I don't want a brick:)

EDIT: I managed to clear some space on the SD and flashed the rest of it. Seems to be working ok, so far anyway. I'm hoping the battery issues from 4.0.3 will be a little better. This is a really good way of doing it all as you can just swap out a potentially bad kernel for one that has been 'protected' by having te emmc cap erase turned off.

Hi,

what service is rx networks pgps seed downloader? and bluetooth map server?

can i stop them?
[HTC One X] PhilipL:
Hi

http://www.rxnetworks.ca/products/assisted-data-solutions/gpstream-pgps it makes fixes to GPS quicker, not sure about the bluetooth one.

Regards

Phil
[HTC One X] zvieratko:
pgps downloader downloads AGPS data for the next 30 days, GPS works without it just fine (and if AGPS is working it looks like you shouldn't notice much without it)

it seems it provides higher quality AGPS data then the default google servers (I'm still not clear on whether SUPL actually provides AGPS data or just suplements GPS with interim coordinates from wifi/cell towers)...

If somebody knows exactly how this works it would be nice to know, I spent a lot of time debugging this :-)
[HTC One X] The-Last-Hylian:
Sorry to rez a dead thread but I didn't really want to start a new thread just for this.

I came across this process earlier and wasn't sure what it was.

So it's something to do with the GPS and how quickly it can locate you etc...

So it's not worth force closing it?

I'm abit warey atm, I downloaded a short movie onto my phone earlier using the FireFox browser, then when watching the film I got a notification pop up stating 'Installation Finished', I wasn't installing anything at the time, I tried to run Antivirus but it just keeps stating that my Scan is Outdated, so I installed Avast! AntiVir and that found nothing... AVG still states Scan is outdated though...

Anyway, I digress, this process is okay to have running right?

thanks,

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] voetbalremco:
people just download it, and use it, but forget to reply or post positive feedback, but that doesn't mean people don't like it.

its a very usefull guide if you're still learning in development/
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] androlivei:
Thanks.

But it is about Galaxy Mini (and it is in Galaxy Mini category).

With the exception of the first season, everything else is equal to all devices (like GIO for instances...)

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalda01:
I need a recommendation for modem that would work well with a carrier using UMTS 2100 and GSM 1800.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fractaline:
No doubt the best thing is to try a few recent ones and pick your favorite. There is a sticky in development with plenty. My wife uses ugkg3 on 2100 with good results but each phone/location is different. you can use service mode to verify your signal.

Phoned in.....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalda01:
Would service mode tell me then what bands are enabled for the current modem?

I need to make sure GSM 1800 is also enabled in case there is a drop in the 2100 signal in certain areas.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalda01:
Are I9000 modems compatible to use on captivate ?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fractaline:
Depends on your ROM/kernel. If you're using a i897 ROM/kernel (like kk4) then no. If you're using an i9000 ROM/kernel (like jvt) or ics then yes. But you need to make sure you flash the correct one for your set up. And no, service mode will not tell you what the modem is able to use. If I'm not mistaken all four gsm bands are active in all the modems.

Phoned in.....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalda01:
I'm using SLIM ICS and found the following link with bunch of modems:

http://www.badworker.net/i9000/Modem/AOSP/

Are these OK for me to flash via CWM ?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fractaline:
not sure about those really.

I use these

For all who lack space on Dropbox, here is an solution.

https://www.box.com/s/797e8140a324720832b6

Just download this APK and install it on your phone. (Please uninstall your Dropbox before!)

After installing enter your login and wait for confirmation mail in your mailbox.

Later you can uninstall the APK and install your original Dropbox again.

Voila, now you have more than 25GB space on Dropbox. :laugh:
[LG Nitro HD] pcguru000:
It will suck when they realize what's going on and cap peoples account @ 2.5 gigs again... then suddenly you loose a sh1t load of data.

I like my FTP server in my house better :)
[LG Nitro HD] Cromson:
I have more than one box to drop, so not really a problem. ;)

Btw. its not cracked or something...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vic509:
I downloaded nvflash to restore my tf101 and followed all the instructions. I installed the drivers for the tablet and then proceeded to click on the download batch file in the nvflash folder. Now there is the problem. I put the tab in apx mode and click the download button and the command screen appears for a second at the most and then disappears and nothing happens! I checked the compatability and everything seems to be fine. Any ideas?? I've been almost two months trying to restore this thing and i'm becoming a wreck trying to fix it! Any help would be great..Thanks...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Волк:
Try launching the batch file from the command prompt versus double-clicking.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vic509:
How do I run it through the command prompt? I know how to reach the cmd but not that exact file!
[Galaxy S III General] Product F(RED):
I found an issue that causes noticeable lag using the stock launcher, and I think it has to do with text overflow. The bottom shortcuts on the home screen i have set are: Phone - Gmail - Go SMS Pro - Chrome Beta. The "o" in "Pro" gets cut off because the title is too long.

For some reason, if I remove Go SMS Pro, I don't have any lag whatsoever going between homescreens or using scrollable widgets (such as, if you take the music widget, and expand it, then try scrolling through the songs). I promise I'm not being nit-picky; there's a real performance hit in the launcher. I know I'll get a bunch of "just use Apex Launcher/Nova Launcher/some other launcher", but I'd rather not. I didn't want to post this in development because I don't think it's a huge enough issue that warrants investigation; it seems to be more along the lines of poor coding. But I thought it would be worth mentioning.
[Galaxy S III General] Daelyn:
Interesting find.

Can anybody with stock launcher confirm?

I'm sure it is like you say thou, ppl abandon stock pretty quickly.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bordikun:
Title says it all. adding security options to the WidgetLocker like pattern/passcode without using the stock lock-screen is it possible?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ev0d3vil:
I'm interested to know this too.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arsaw:
You can ask widgetlocker developer to add it ;)

[Nokia Lumia 900] RandomXIII:
With the release of WP8 and cutoff of supports for the current WP7 lineups, MS just shot themselves in the foot by doing two things:

_ Introduce fragmentation: now developers have to work extra harder to support both the existing WP7.x customers and the new WP8 customer base.

_ Piss off and alienating all the customers that have been with MS through ups and downs: note that this is more important because WP has never been popular, most people will either get an Android or iPhone and only the loyal and diehards get WP7. With this announcement, MS has effectively give all its loyal users the middle finger. For users who haven't abandoned WP despite being shafted by the whole HD2 and WM6.5 fiasco, this will be the LAST STRAW, trust me.

A bit about my phone history, I have had an HD2, a Samsung Focus and a Dell Venue Pro but no more, I will not give M$ another chance. Trick me once, shame on you, trick me twice shame on me. History will repeat itself, MS will once again abandon users of WP8 and WP8.5 when announcing WP9. The only ones who haven't realized this is the die-hard MS fanboys who are keep on coming back to M$ no matter how bad M$ treats them.

Heed my advices, give other platforms a try and use this as a breakup point for this abusive relationship. M$ doesn't deserve your money and your time. Use that money to buy something that will be properly supported and more importantly you will be treated like a valuable customer.
[Nokia Lumia 900] darren486:
that is what i'm planning to do, the WP7.5 market is still under 100k apps if i'm not mistaken, if i'm a developer, do i actually continue to make SW for the 7.5 or 8 group? if i start producing for 8, how much customer base does M$ gonna guarantee to have? i'm switching back to android for my next phone, but for the time being, i'll still use the 900 for some period of time coz i actually like the design... but M$ just gave another reason for developer NOT to develop apps for them...
[Nokia Lumia 900] sakenfenc:
TROLLS.....Ask yourself this question:

If you have a 3GS iphone with IOS 5 is it the same as the 4s??

MS will update all phones but if you don't have the hardware to take full advantage of OS it is NOT their fault.

Apple, Android and everybody else do the same...
[Nokia Lumia 900] RandomXIII:
Enough with this iPhone 3GS BS, the 3GS is over 3 years old. How long are you fanboys going to use that as an excuse to justify how the Lumia users were treated ?

If you want to compare, let's compare iPhone 4. iPhone 4 was released in 2010 but they are still supported, they have the iOS 5 and will be able to take advantage of the iOS 6 kernel. You don't see iPhone 4 was made obsolete and cannot run iOS 5 or iOS 6 application.

Stop fooling yourself and wake up. If you don't want to wake up, suit yourself. I am out of this rocky boat and will move to where I will be treated better.
[Nokia Lumia 900] LordGreylock:
Apple still omits some features from older phones when a new version of iOS is released. iOS 5 was released and the iPhone 4 didn't get Siri, however that phone is fully capable of running Siri. Talk about getting screwed.

Android users a lot of times don't even get the updates they need, it all depends on the device they have, and new/replacement Android phones are released at an insane rate as well.

By the time WP8 is released the Lumia will be roughly 7-8 months old.

I don't think Lumia 900 owners are totally getting screwed.

I am glad Microsoft will be adding some of features the Lumia 900 will be able to run efficiently. Otherwise adding full blown WP8 to the device may bog it down and it will run terrible.

The Lumia 900 also lacks the hardware for some of the new features such as NFC. Why add these software features to a phone that cannot take advantage of them.

This is how Apple, Google and Microsoft all do business.
[Nokia Lumia 900] xsever:
Very well said and the Lumia is way newer than older iPhone models that still got big chunks of the updates.
[Nokia Lumia 900] LordGreylock:
If Microsoft released WP8 for the Lumia and the phone couldn't handle it and ran sluggish people would *****, instead they are releasing WP 7.8 for it and people are *****ing.

No matter what Microsoft does, people are going to whine about it.

Welcome to the world of tech. If you are always worried about not having the latest and greatest, then you'd spend your time waiting for the next great device 3-6 months from now and you'd never buy a phone.
[Nokia Lumia 900] lowlymarine:
Except that is exactly what is happening. It can't run every iOS 6 feature, including the headlining turn-by-turn navigation. It can't even run the headline iOS 5 feature, that's iPhone 4S exclusive too.

If Microsoft had just basically lied and called this the Windows Phone 8 update with some missing features, there would be no uproar. But because they opted not to take the Apple route, everyone's got their knickers in a twist.
[Nokia Lumia 900] sakenfenc:
I agree , the iphone 4 and 4S ,won't have NFC features ... No android phone has gotten an update in a timely fashion. Nokia and Ms are on top of it.

Plus with WP there is no need for Dual core and sd cards that is reserved for memory hogs with leaks , I won't mention names.
[Nokia Lumia 900] AnyMal:
I stopped reading your uninformed rant right there. Perhaps you should familiarize yourself with the subject matter if you want people to take you seriously.
[Nokia Lumia 900] yaiba60:
And every new iPhone comes out with 1 or two new exclusive features while the rest comes to older generations because of their appropriately phrased "hardware upgrade". WP is what? New generation has many new features while older generations get maybe 1 or 2 new things? Now if you think Apple is doing it wrong and MS is doing the right thing, it's time to look at sales chart and consumer satisfaction. Oh maybe you still think MS is right and ignore that very few people are with you on this boat.

Android, on the other hand, is well known for its fragmentation in update, everyone is aware of it. The deal is, Gingerbread is almost complete. Android is like an arm race "may the most powerful phone win" kind of thing. Android never boasts about update but the Nexus line did get its update. Had MS had enough balls to confirm the fate of the Lumia 900 before its launch, I doubt the sexy phone would have seen the light of day. Now if WP8 announces another type of marketplace, that would mean a death certificate has been signed for WP7.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
if you want an iPhone, go buy an iPhone. But don't use wp8 as the excuse. Fanboy or no, any argument used to defend your point is wrong. Apple foes the same thing. Android is worse. So if you want an iPhone,go buy one. I hope you end up happy.
[Nokia Lumia 900] RandomXIII:
Ok, iPhone 4 might not be able to run all features available in iOS 6 but it has iOS 6 kernel and will be able to use all the apps made for iOS 6, what part of that do you guys not understand ?

Lumia 900 WILL NOT have the new kernel in WP8 and will be obsolete in a few months since it WILL NOT run apps made exclusively for WP8. Do you see iPhone 4 not being able to run any apps made exclusively for iPhone 4S ? Some features in iOS 6 are not included since any company has the right to reserve the latest and best features for their latest models. Everybody knows that.

Talking with you M$ fanboys is no better than talking to a brick. If you like the way you are treated, then good for you. Keep up supporting your beloved company, nobody is going to interfere. This thread is mainly for the new buyers or for the undecided to see how they have been f*cked by M$.
[Nokia Lumia 900] RandomXIII:
Wow I am speechless, this kind of ignorance is simply staggering. I was citing how Apple supports their customers, not a propaganda on why people should buy an iPhone.

And FYI, I WILL NOT buy an iPhone because I oppose Apple and their business practice. Instead, I will buy a Galaxy Nexus because I know I will be properly supported. Almost bought a Nokia Lumia 800 but luckily I didn't.

Already sold all my WP7 phones prior to the announcement since I had a bad feeling about it, luckily I did because people are dumping their phones on ebay now and Nokia Lumia 900 has been dropping in its value like crazy. If you don't believe me, check ebay. Have fun with your outdated and obsolete POS Nokia Lumia, folks.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
your premise already flawed. "Piss off and alienate all MS customers that have been through the UPS and downs"

I for one am neither pissed off nor alienated. I bought the first PPC v1 from MS. I've owned every version of windows mobile...several on fact. I've owned android and iPhones. I am NOT pissed off or alienated. And I count many, make that MANY people on XDA alone that are more like me, than you. I applause MS for drawing a line...so, so...i do not have problems trying to get 'NEXT' to run correctly in my phone. So my 'NEXT' phone can focus on running as well as it can. I also expect WP 9, or whatever to make the same hard choices.

I also know that as long as I keep my 900, it will be supported. It is not obsolete. It will only be obsolete when it stops being able to do what I bought it for. I know it will still be supported, long after I stop using it.

I respect your opinion. I respect your right to feel shafted. I respectfully say, you're wrong. This is still a great phone with a great future.

---------- Post added at 06:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:30 PM ----------

man...why couldn't you have become speechless, before you wrong this reply. Leave, please. Buy whatever device you wish. That Samsung is surely the greatest plone in the word...including explosions and plastic case. Its predecessor proved just how great android is. Have fun...enjoy...and please don't reply..my pos lumia doesn't explode, but it might get offended considering the galaxy of information you've presented.

Whether you agree with the guy or not, that is a very valid point he is making!

[Nokia Lumia 900] AnyMal:
Why don't we all take a deep breath, relax, and see if the creative geniuses a.k.a xda developers can cook something up when WP8 comes out. Shall we?
[Nokia Lumia 900] xsever:
With the way MS has everything closed, I am starting to lose my hope. If it were to rain, we'd start seeing clouds by now :)
[Nokia Lumia 900] jaythang:

[Nokia Lumia 900] bigwavesurfer4:
I'm not happy. I was expecting a WP 8 update. I want to know, however, what features are WP 7 users really not getting in 7.8?

NFC? - Don't have the hardware

higher resolution/dual cores etc - Not an expert but I'm guessing this can't be done

Wallet Hub- Needs NFC anyway I would think.

Better multitasking - This one would be nice to have, but I wouldn't be surprised if they included better multi-tasking for the lumia 900...if not...that sucks

Better Camera app - wouldn't be surprised if we got this...if not...what more funtionality does the camera app really need? Nokia camera just came out with panorama shots...you can get apps with burst shots...what are really lacking?

Believe me, I'm not happy about any of this...the behind our backs marketing of lumia 900 as the non-beta phone etc etc...i think it's a scam....but...what arguement are we actually making? What else do you want to see in the WP 7.8 package? I'm not saying this to say "you're wrong" I'm asking this because I honestly don't know the answer. If the update comes with better multitasking, start screen, and the guarantee that apps will work the same on 7.8 as on wp8...and that none of these features will create lag on the phone...i will be perfectly content...then again I was content when my HTC aria go android 2.2...with no flash player capabilities...I don't think any of these damn companies have gotten their acts together...but I'm pissed Nokia went behind our backs not telling us the truth just to make a couple bucks.
[Nokia Lumia 900] RandomXIII:
Ok, whatever rocks your boat I guess. Remember that I used to own WP7 phones (Focus and Dell Venue Pro) and I loved it. I bought a bunch of apps on the Windows Phone Marketplace to support M$ and the developers too.

And Galaxy Nexus doesn't have exploding battery like you said, continue drinking the M$ KoolAid. Hope you make the right choice. I feel like I didn't. That's why I am out of here.
[Nokia Lumia 900] SimmIsengard:
You guys know why they are doing this right? MS is essentially creating a unified OS across your desktop, tablet, and phone built on Windows CE. I bet the new XBox will be based on the same tech. I for one am excited to see what MS is got around the corner. If it means my Lumia wont get 8 oh well. At least it's getting one of the coolest features the new start screen.
