[Atrix 4G General] Obartuckc:
Have you tried going into settings and disabling "use network to locate" and only enabling "use gps"?

~Sent from my Unlocked, Rooted, Faux 1.45gHz Motorola Atrix 4G~
[Atrix 4G General] UTZorro:
Tried that...it just made it unable to locate me completely
[Atrix 4G General] Miguelyl:
Same problem here, using 4.5.141. Maybe ICS will fix it as most reports are from gingerbread users. Not much of a problem for me as navigation is not available in my country.
[Atrix 4G General] norm688:
I find that going into google navigation first, wait for gps lock (should be pretty fast this way instead of waiting couple of minutes in google maps) then tap on the upper left hand corner and select google maps works wayyyy better.
[Atrix 4G General] nalorite:
Had this too, or something like it. My GPS would never lock and my location would just be a giant blue circle. Turns out I was on an old radio (something .30), so I flashed the newest for AT&T (N_01.77.37P). Now my GPS works great and gets street level location in about 10 seconds.
[Atrix 4G General] UTZorro:
I have that radio already version on the stock 2.3.6 moto rom
[Atrix 4G General] Strahlenkanone:
Same problem here. No gps position in google maps anymore. Other gps apps work fine.

Since the first gingerbread version, the atrix returns the gps accuracy always with a 0 when is has a gpx fix. Normally it should give a value greater than zero. You can easily check this with a gps test app. only with wifi or cellular position it return a correct value.

public float getAccuracy ()

I think that now google maps compares the accuracy values and ignores location providers with 0 accuracy, because they are supposed to be invalid.

My own app has no problem with gps on an atrix, because I do not compare both values, I switch only if gps fix is lost or returned.

Let's hope that Moto will fix gps provider accuracy in ics.

I have tried to flash a new ROM, but cmw were never able to flash it always being aborted. Yesterday tried to flash Darkside evo 3. Flash super wipe success, flash new baseband good, comes the rom itself aborted package not good. I thought it was just bad messages from cmw.Reboot the phone wouldnt reboot just hung,i tried cache wiped still not reboot, hung again. Any idea why? I just flashed the cmw again so i will try again. In the mean time any idea will be appreaciated :p:p

JugMod V 5.0,

2.3.6, 2.3.14
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Tnallen:
Possible bad download of the rom. Definitely won't boot after a superwipe. Did you make a nandroid?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] FwaZ:
Yes, i did make a backup.:) Funny thing is, i am only able to install a new baseband, anything else is fail. :confused::confused:

JugMod V 5.0,

2.3.6, 2.3.14
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] datrapstar:
*my opinion*

your running gb, some of the newer roms are ics created, will cause conflict between the 2 hence why the non flash capable. i would recommend to update to ics and try again, make sure u nandro first in the event you wanna revert back to prior os and maybe that will solve your probs. hope this helps

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rileyrealz:
I had this problem too both on My Vibrant and Galaxy Tab 10.1. I say odin to stock and do a clean install of the rom. that always seemed to fix it for me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] beyako:
Check the md5sum and see if it matches before flashing any rom thats very important.... Or what cwm version u using??? Cause the touch cwm has some issues so i changed to the non touch cwm its more secure
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] datrapstar:
if you want, do what i did, i restored stock ics and cleaned up my phone fully as from factory. started from root to flashing all the stuff all over, now im on a clean sd card( backedup all the external sd on my pc) so i have tons of room to play with. hope this helps

I came across this list and thought I would share it with the rest of the community.

http://goo.gl/yWDoI

I am a nut about keeping my process count as low as possible both for performance and battery life so I have disabled some more apps not on this list but I will continue testing the stability before I post them on the forums.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] lopezpm:
Nice list, thanks for sharing.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Randomacts:
Is that list finished it doesn't look like it.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Jake101:
It's a work in progress. I have a lot more apps frozen on my device but I am going to keep testing to make sure it is stable before I post them.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] ImARaptor:
Do you delete the .odex as well?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] LightningPhoenix:
Clock 1.0 is safe to remove, it is not the system app for time management, it is just the stock clock widget.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zeb94:
OK I was running classic nerd and it ran fine but when cm9 got official nighlys I switched I read a little bit figured out how to clear moboot and it worked and I installed cm9 just fine everything in cm9 works fine but I can't get web is to boot it just stays sticks at the HP logo any ideas?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chicle_11:
You might have to doctor.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bharakrama:
You can try re-installing moboot. Maybe that'll fix it.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moshe5368:
Sounds like you might have removed the webos uimage when cleaning out moboot. If so, a trip to webos doctor will be required.
[TouchPad General] Markk29:
I have a touchpad running a recent nightly of cm9, I'm developinig an android app that has different views depending on whether the android device has a sim card or not. The app works fine on a phone with or without a sim card present but upon trying the app out on my touchpad it reports that there is a sim card. Is there anyway to remove this or is it what makes it ok to connect to google services?

Thanks for any help
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] rophil:
I have modified the stock dialer to fit the screen 240dpi - 320 dpi.

It is based on the latest XXLQ3, but should work on other ICS ROM (LPY,LP9,LQ2, etc.)

at 240 dpi

Installation:

1. Rename original Contacts.apk and Contacts.odex to Contacts.apk.old and Contact.odex.old (this is just for backup in case you want revert back)

2. Copy the modified Contacts.apk into /system/app

Download:

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/46803015/Contacts.apk
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] xtacy1:
Omg you are the bomb i will surely download it right away and give feedback.

Thanks thanks and more thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] xtacy1:
Done and it is working perfectly. Thanks again.

Word of asvicw to anyone using s3 launcher as default. Clear default before changing dpi to 240 as launcher will crash on reboot causing you not to be able to access settings menu in order to select another launcher.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] adamskoc:

Adobe just confirm that 4.1 will never get flash. Would u guys stay wit ice during to this?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Tempie007:
naah.. flash should be banned asap and im willing to help with that.

most sites have alternative streams when flash is not pesent.

and if i truly need flash i just rdp / splashtop to my desktop.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mbucks911:
flash was one of the reasons i switched to android. now i realize that all it does is slow the browser down significantly. i dont remember the last time i used flash.

i think upgrading to jb is definately worth it
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoMagus:
uhhh.. Im on 4.1 on my Nexus and Flash works fine. Just because they wont support it dont mean it dont work JB is just a minor revision of ICS now 5.0 yeah then it wont work maybe
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] K999rrl:
Data good to know as I still watch a lot of flash content!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoMagus:
Well apparently according to theverge Adobe is going to disable installs from the Play store on August 15th, so I would suggest backing up the apk to use as soon as you can
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vittogn:
For me as well.

On my SGS3 the browser is perfect on heavy flash site, but it seems Samsung is the only one.

Hopefully jb will make our tegra 3 tablet work as it should have been since day 1.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] steveaitch:
I thought when I bought my Prime that Flash would be a useful addition. In practice I've ended up playing very few games using it and I really don't think I would miss it now.

Guess that will also mean goodbye to Kongregate's Arcade app.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fenturi:
How lame! I need flash
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] almightywhacko:
This isn't a true statement. Adobe said they will not certify Android 4.1 as Flash compatible, and therefore won't provide support for issues specifically related to users running Flash on an unsupported OS. You should still be able to use it for as long as Flash remains relevant.

Adobe said they are also pulling Flash out of the Play Store (for all versions of Android), however if you already have Flash installed, it will continue to get security updates, etc.

Mobile Flash is dead. Adobe killed it. Holding on to older technologies instead of moving on to newer tech will just make it that much hard when you have no other option except to adopt the newer technologies.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rorytmeadows:
What pisses me off is that I'm sure Apple and Nazi Jobs will get credit for such an end to Flash, when in reality, the end of Flash and the start of HTML5 was always coming, even when there was a Flash vs. Apple war. Adobe knew this. Smart technies knew this. But people, especially the idiots writing articles on CNET and Engadget, will credit Apple with another win. Uhm, no, this was always inevitable, even if Apple prematurely decided against Flash, in a bitter retort from their dictator CEO.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UndisputedGuy:
When updates are performed though, isnt all data wiped? If im unrooted and get an upgrade to jellybean, then how will i retain flash? Will apps from Google play store stay installed even though they are no longer available?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vittogn:
We'll be able to side load it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jetbruceli:
I got mine backed up with tiBU but for a few days now without flash installed its been runnning like a champ. No waits, lags, or anything. Now using chrome because I can with my iPhone and life is beautiful!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] almightywhacko:
You get angry too easily, and over things that aren't very important.

As far as Apple getting the credit for killing Flash, maybe there were a lot of factors that lead to the end of the platform however credit where credit is due, Apple was the first company to step and and say "No, we don't need this anymore." Whether that is true or not is not important. As often happens Apple saw how technology was evolving and helped push the adoption of the newer technology that will replace the old. How many people would be coding their sites in HTML 5, and making HTML 5 & javascript based media if the iPad had supported Flash?

There is no question that the millions of users viewing websites via the Flash-free iPad and iPhone was a huge motivator to push web developers away from plug-ins and more towards open technology standards.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rorytmeadows:
I respectfully disagree. Apple's premature decision was felt across the tech industry, especially by Apple users. There was a huge following that still wanted Flash and that's why SkyFire and other work-arounds became so popular after the decision. Flash was going to go away, everyone knew that. It was coming in a few years. Well, a few years is here already. And now everyone wants to say that Apple "stepped up" and drove Flash out. Uhm, no. Again, we knew this was coming. HTML5 was only a few years out from a basic maturity. And knowing this back then and watching it happen only allows for the conclusion that Jobs was a brat.

Not premature? Take a look at HTML example videos on YouTube from a couple years ago and try and tell me that they aren't a witnessing of the digital equivalent of a developmental disability.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UndisputedGuy:
Meaning? Sorry, not too familiar with all terminology. Does all data get wiped when performing an update to jellybean?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NeoMagus:
When they say side load they mean use something like Astro or Apk installer to install the apk file. It shouldn't wipe it if its already on there but after Aug 15 you wont be able to get it off the Play store
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] the_game_master:
Adobe never confirmed such a thing.

Flash doesn't slow down the browser. Especially with regard to ICS on the TFP. The browser is just slow in general.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UndisputedGuy:
Can you do this without root?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rorytmeadows:
Yeah, you shouldn't have any difficulty once the apk is out there and you have the setting checked to allow outside apk installs. Root is a different issue.

Flash will be around for longer than what people think. Websites have been developed with Flash content and because of the economy, not every company has spent the money to change the content. Flash will work on 4.1 but not any developed with the new SDKs. But since most have moved over to HTML5 development anyway, you're really not going to miss much.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UndisputedGuy:
Sorry, still learning but where can i locate the flash apk? I have installed some apk installers.

Also, can i share files this way, from my phone to tablet or vice versa?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rootfreak:
I thought they said the same thing with ICS and then adobe updated flash out of no where. Some one please correct me if I am wrong but I could have sworn that I read that somewhere.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] motomeup:
The apk isn't officially available, but if you do a search on Google, for something like "Android Adobe Flash apk" then you should be able to find a site that you can download it from. The latest version is 11.1.115.11 as of right now.

Alternatively, you can use an android backup program to get the apk from your own phone before they take it off Google Play. I use ASTRO File Manager which is a file manager, but also has application backup capabilities.

As I remember, after ICS was released, Adobe had announced that ICS was going to be the last supported version of Android and that they would no longer be updating Flash for mobile devices.

After that announcement, everyone thought that there would be no more updates at all, so people were surprised to see updates come through afterwards. But the updates were just small security fixes.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ratman6161:
The problem is NOT 4.1...

Not exactly anyway. The issue is that in 4.1, Google Chrome will replace the "browser" found in 4.0 and earlier. Chrome does not support flash. If you load Chrome on your existing ROM, whatever that may be, even today, flash will not work with it.

The solution is very simple however. If you choose to use a non-Chrome third party browser, just pick out one that does support flash such as Dolphin. For me, I'm finding I really like Chrome and don't miss flash too much. However, every once in a while I want to get at something that requires flash and then I just switch to Dolphin for that. So I'll probably just keep Dolphin + flash around for a while even though it's not what I primarily use, just for those odd occasions. I'll also find a copy of the flash.apk file to squirrel away somewhere just in case.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 145ty:
If that is the case - I truly hope they fix whatever is up with Chrome on the Prime. I can't use it for more then 1-3 minutes without having to force close it. Laggiest buggiest browser for the Prime so far.. Opera Mobile being the only semi stable so far. Sucks because Chrome on my GS2 rocks.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] CharliesTheMan:
What rom and kernel are you running?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ratman6161:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fenturi:
Some Sites need character animation. Advertising is still mostly flash. And it's being used a lot more for web games, and that is part of why adobe did what it did... they want flash to make games that would choke phones to play on desktops.

Unless they have something better than what I have seen, I think they should do a mobile version of flash still. Because animation tools for HTML5 are crap from the art point of view. Sure you can move some things around and play video, but all your drawing will be in another software.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pileot:
Theres ways to preserve flash even with jellybean. As tech moves forward and things progress there will be adaptations. Look at what happened before flash, there were animated advertisments, called animated gifs. We had mouseover effects and fancy imbedded games and elements. Ya, it wasnt as pretty as what we have now, but it was what we had to work with. HTML5 may not be nicely polished yet but its still relitively new. As it becomes more widespread there will be made more tools and tweaks will be found to make it work even better than flash now. The only way to push that change is to stop support for the older software.

I personally dont see what the big problem is. Flash isnt just going to dissapear. People are going to find ways to get what they want with flash or html5 or whatever they choose to use. Either it will run with chrome or it will run on dolphin or whatever else you use, or it wont. There is always a way. thats the great thing about android.

"Want Porn? Buy an Android Phone, Steve Jobs Says"
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bASKOU:
Totally off topic, but talking about Steve Jobs mean talking about about Apple who is the company who steal so much patents for say it belong to them after. And refuse adobe telling that it damage the processor just for hide that actually apple portble devices can't handle it as well as an Android device.

Back to the topic:

After adobe said that Flash won't be on JB but adobe air will take the relay of flash as it have flash video content and flash DRM also. So normally browsers and others apps will still have flash video support if they support it.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] contentryder:
Anybody else having this issue? I'm getting an app crash when trying to switch carriers for voice mail from AT&T's to Google's. It was working perfectly fine with my S II.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] mercado79:
On my Sprint SGS3, I wasn't able to set Google Voice as my voicemail on the phone itself. However, I went through the process as far as I could (within the Google Voice app), and then logged on to Google.com/Voice > Settings > click on "Deactivate Google voicemail on this phone". After that, re-enable Google Voicemail and you should be good to go.

Soon after that, the settings on the phone were greyed out and voicemails came in as expected.

Sorry if this isn't so clear! Time for bed and my brain isn't firing on all cylinders. :) Good luck.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] energyracing:
It's not working for me either. Seems there's issues on Sprint and T-Mo too with the SGSIII and Google Voice. I hate using stock voicemail. Hope the next Google Voice update cures this.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Lieu10ant:
everyone! this works!

just did it.

disabled it using the browser like he said. and then re-activated it on the same page by following the instructions. just checked to see if it works, and it does :)

yay

Thanks! Was having the same problem til I came across your post. Now I'll know what to do in the future. :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Lieu10ant:
while we're here, when someone leaves me a voicemail, it goes to my old phone that has the google voice app (it's still connected to wifi). it doesn't show up on my new phone though.

do i have to do something with my old phone to make it stop? or do i change some other settings?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Lieu10ant:
bump?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] mrvirginia:
i couldn't get this to work. the post wasn't very clear. did you go to google.com/voice on your phone or via website? i did via phone and don't see anywhere to "Deactivate Google voicemail on this phone". didn't see it via computer, either.

edit: so i found this via browser on my computer finally. reactivated and still no dice
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] zmore:
I was only able to switch my VoiceMail provider from AT&T to GoogleVoice by using the dialcode listed @ voice.google.com (*004*<insertyourGVnumberhere>#), and it works, even though Dialer app settings still shows "My carrier" instead of "Google Voice" as the provider, and attempting to change it in the Dialer still says "Forwarding number change failed".

My problem now is that I can't for the life of me figure out where to change the timeout before it forwards to VoiceMail. I test-called from another phone and it rings for at least 60 seconds(!) before forwarding to GoogleVoice, instead of the 15 or so it used to be. Where do you change this, or can you?
