GPS issues

ISSUE IN SR1: GPS is broken if you need GPS, please keep BR11

Some ideas for users with GPS issues. After flashing AGPS patch or downloading Data in GPS Status, enable GPS, reboot the phone, go outside to test. It can take 5-10 minutes to get satellites the first time.

flashing A-GPS patch which add some settings in gps.prop file : http://xdaforums.com/show...php?p=17292607 (download recent build: Google Specific No-SSL v3.1 )

GPS Status (free app in Play Store)

In Menu - Tool - Manage A-GPS state, Press Reset - This action will delete all received and cached data.

Press Download - The downloaded data is valid for 4-5 days and will give you a muchfaster GPS fix.

Test with another Radio (don't flash the RIL, one - optimized - is already in rom) - look at this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=877295

There's definately something odd with battery consumption when making calls.

What with that and, for me, the return of the WiFi being disabled until a reboot. I've gone back to R29 for now.
[Desire HD Android Development] GeigerS:
IIRC the in-call speakerphone muting problem has been around for several versions (before R29). I also seem to recall that this is not just an issue with JT, but common across many (all?) of the JB ROMs for DHD/I4G (I could be wrong on that as I didn't double check - just going off memory).

My take on why you were attacked is how you phrased your post. Rather than saying "Hey, I'm having this problem, is anyone else? etc etc" You posted what some would read as a post trashing the ROM. Results vary, I have been using this ROM as my daily since R15. Yes, it has quirks and there are things that don't work perfectly. What works for me may not work for you or others. And some people have issues that very few others may have. An anology was posted a while back and to paraphrase it:

just because we all have the same make/model of a car doesn't mean we'll have the same experience and maintenance issues.

---------- Post added at 03:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 PM ----------

Thanks, got that thread bookmarked too. I *might* try it if the resets become to annoying, but right now they are very infrequent. As OP of the thread says, that kernel is not supported for JT - which of course doesn't mean it won't work, just that he won't address issues. I've tried that kernel on prior versions of JT (not recently and not on R29 or R30) with mixed results.
[Desire HD Android Development] matroihanoi:
Many thanks nino2603 !
[Desire HD Android Development] Quiglesigles:
So I went back to R29 to see if voice calls harmed the battery life, and for me they didn't. My current idea is to use the phone.apk from R29 in R30 by simply extracting and installing it in R30.

I will hopefully report back tomorrow with my results.

R30 is extremely good in powersaving, now I could get 3 screen hours!!! with auto brightness and wifi/3g on!
[Desire HD Android Development] alge30:
Its strange that I don't have problem with speaker phone, but with Bluetooth in car I have.
[Desire HD Android Development] tboheeren:
Very happy with the rom. Thanks again.

Only big issue for me is the gps not locking as reported.
[Desire HD Android Development] gbeardmore:
Try looking here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1252011&highlight=agps

I D/L and flash the very first file: Google Specific No-SSL v3.1

The first lock takes about 2-3 minutes. After that I get GPS locks in under 30 seconds.

Is anyone else having GPS problems, I have tried the quoted solution but it did not work for me. Has anyone else had this problem or solved it ?

Did you dirty flash or full wipe?
[Desire HD Android Development] d3adbroke:
Installed rom loved it but home button wasn't workinh
[Desire HD Android Development] ghandil:
Yes YEs YESSSSSS finally :victory: it works for me after almost 1year I've switched from Gingerbread to 4+ Versions. can't stop my tears falling :D

Is it the same problem (VPN permission) on ICS and other JellyBean ROMs? Does this patch work for them too?

God why they didn't include this script on on their firmwares (I mean Google too :D)

Thanks a lot
[Desire HD Android Development] nickza:
Does this ROM have GPS coordinates in the camera? I can't seem to find the settings to enable it...
[Desire HD Android Development] bbawden:
Hi. I just can't get this to work. I have tried different releases, and in every case it says it has installed the zip OK, but when I reboot the screen just stays blank, and I have to physically reboot to recovery and restore from a backup.

There might be a very quick blue flash before the screen goes blank.

Currently trying to do it with R30.

Annoyingly, my down vol key seems to have packed in, so now I can't even reboot into recovery.

I can't find details of what the MD5 should be, so I can't check that right now.
[Desire HD Android Development] GuyInTheCorner:
ADB Reboot Recovery?

The Corner approves..

That thanks button ain't gonna push itself!
[Desire HD Android Development] Dubbee:
Toggle the lock screen on and off then the home button works.
[Desire HD Android Development] bbawden:
I'll give that a go when I get home - ADB has never worked at work for some reason.
[Desire HD Android Development] bcd420:
Have you been able to run any jb roms?

Edit: any rom with 3.x kernel?
[Desire HD Android Development] bbawden:
Yes, my current ROM is a previous release of JellyTime. I'll check the exact release when I can get it restored.
[Desire HD Android Development] ghandil:
In camera press and hold on empty space, a circle of options will appear. The GPS located under the pointed option
[Desire HD Android Development] ghandil:
Me too, and after a few weeks the whole Vol key was conked. I didn't expect this from HTC's manufacturing quality :rolleyes:
[Desire HD Android Development] GeigerS:
Depends on whether other ICS/JB ROMs have the same problem. This script just installs an init script that runs every time you reboot that fixes the permissions for the vpn. It's really more of a "workaround" than an actual fix (if you want to get technical) because if you remove the init script the file permissions will revert.
[Desire HD Android Development] ghandil:
At least it solved my problem; However seems there's no willpower to fix this issue basically
[Desire HD Android Development] geko1966:
FYI

First of All!!! Happy New Year to all of You! and sorry for not updating the issue tracker until now, but had to much to take care of IRL!..anyhow

Speaker doesnt work for me

Hey I've done the full wipe and running R30 but the Speaker / mic (i.e handsfree) in call doesn't work for me ... anyone have any ideas? do I need to flash a separate kernel / fix?

Also MMS is no longer working, was working well in 29!

Thx

[Desire HD Android Development] szilistvan:
Strange issue I've never had before. I'm on r30, clean install, DHD. When I plug it in to charge (wall outlet), it thinks that I'm charging through USB, CurrentWidget reports only 365-400 mA, the normal would be somewhere between 800 and 900 mA. I tried to unplug and plug it in again, it's the same.

Is there any way to enable Fast charge?
[Desire HD Android Development] bosas200:
Dont use your phone while charging and you will get your fast charge. When you using your phone it takes some power

Sent from JB powered DHD
[Desire HD Android Development] damac:
+1, that kind of fast charge never worked for me beyond ice cold sandwich. Nobody else seemed to think it was an issue...
[Desire HD Android Development] kd8bny:
I don't know about MMS.... but a page back or so a quite a few people including myself said the were having the same speaker/BT issue. I've tried different kernels and haven't gotten to work yet.

Best of luck
[Desire HD Android Development] artov:
What kind of battery life are you folks having with R30 except for the call drain issue?
[Desire HD Android Development] kd8bny:
Here stock kernel about 3% on standby and about 7% with moderate use.

Flashed kangbang earlier I've noticed a bit more power usage but its too soon to tell.
[Desire HD Android Development] daddins:
Ubuntu on the desire hd?

Hey RB any chance of bringing Ubuntu for smartphones to the desire HD when its released? Seems like its working smoothly on the Samsung galaxy nexus. :)
[Desire HD Android Development] young440:
Do you have a link for this?
[Desire HD Android Development] RASTAVIPER:
Battery life and GPS fast locking were the only good things of this ROM for me.

I had at standby something like 1%/hour and in total I managed to reach 52 hours with 1 charge, with minimum of use and the bigger Anker battery that I use.
[Desire HD Android Development] Largamelion:
Battery life +- 24 hours when on wifi with average use, +- 14 hours when on 3G/H with the same use. I have the impression that IceColdSandwich 8.8 lasts twice as long with exactly the same apps.

Probably the only 'issue' I have with this rom, besides the camera app. Wouldn't want to revert to ICS though ... :good:.

[Desire HD Android Development] bbawden:
Anyone got an idea as to what I can do with this problem?
[Desire HD Android Development] artov:
Thanks for the reactions concerning battery life. We're about on the same page then. I have ordered an anker 1600 which should in theory last 30% longer. But it's also likely that I will revert after many months back to icecoldsandwhich with all the respect to the devs.
[Desire HD Android Development] pissat4motion:
On R30 since it's release. Only one issue with sending emails through gmail. I'm assuming it's ROM related since this problem didn't exist in previous release..

related to this rom I experience a strange battery drainig with wifi on, about 60-70 mha (says current widget) and about 1mha with wifi off, both values are measured with screen off in idle.....maybe a bad flash.......anyways great rom!!!!
[Desire HD Android Development] jchuillier:
Hello all,

I like this rom a lot but I have 1 problem with it.

The SD card takes WAY too long to be ready when the rom loads and so at the boot it is not recognized and all the apps that are on it are not available, and so for example electric sheep will not run properly and I need to select it manually every time.

I've tried to revert to my old ARHD 7.14 and of course it runs perfectly so it's not an issue about the card not being fast enough, it's a class 10 anyway.

Is there a way to make the card boot faster, I can see a "card verification" icon being there at boot and I assume that it locks the card until the verifications are done, so can we delete this verifications or can we slow down the boot of apps and widgets until this verification is done ?

Thanks a lot
[Desire HD Android Development] tboheeren:
Does anybody know the setting to put the incoming ringtone on silent when you turn around the phone?

I cant seem to find it under call or sound options.

Was a handy feature with the stock rom.

Thanks in advance
[Desire HD Android Development] ghandil:
Do you mean froyo stock rom?

Wasn't it a sense feature?
[Desire HD Android Development] tboheeren:
Yeah the froyo stock rom. I suppose it was a sense feature but it thought this was also implemented in one of the custom roms...
[Desire HD Android Development] ghandil:
I Almost forgot this feature :rolleyes:

Maybe it's available on custom sense roms, not AOSP roms

Yeah, doesn't work also at Icecold Rom.

Hi, I like this ROM a lot. But I have one major issue.

When the Phone uses roaming Network or I try to set the Network connection to manual, the Phone restarts immetiatelly.

So the Phone is absolut not usable abroad. Only Chance working with the phone is in airplane mode.

Thanks

The speaker is known issue, there is no fix at this point in time.

Not sure about MMS, I have not had any problems with it, but I know people in the past have reported MMS problems. Do a search of this thread and see if there was a solution.

For info, I uninstalled the eBay app and this seemed to really improve it. Even though I turned off all notifications, it still seemed to be keeping my phone awake a lot of the time. I found it out by checking the partial wakelocks. Now the android system is my highest offender, and there's nothing I can do about that, so I think I'm in a good place!

Does anyone have a problem when taking picture with flash?

Because whenever I take a picture with flash on, my phone auto shuts down, then I have to reinsert battery to turn it on :(
[Desire HD Android Development] Gizmoe:
It's a documented issue. Some are affected, others are not. Theory is that it has something to do with how old battery is and how much charge it has.
[Desire HD Android Development] denwathappened:
Maybe a bad flash. Uhm. I don't know, it doesn't happen on my dhd. Try reflashing. Maybe it will work, maybe it will not. Or flash another rom if the problem still exist:D

I think this is for versions of Android before 3.0 (Honey comb).

I had the same problem, couldn't select manual network operator and when near a border it would switch to roaming and I couldn't change it back until I was out of range of the roaming network. When roaming I couldn't make our receive calls.

Switched to CodefireX and everything works okay (apart from mute button during a call). I hate to say I've switched to another ROM on a thread but the devs are now all working on Android 4.2 and little is happening on these 4.1 ROM's. Bluetooth and GPS will soon be both working on both CodefireX and unofficial CM10.1 ROM's.
[Desire HD Android Development] facelessone1:
I had this problem. Wanted to return my phone for warranty (1.5 years old) but in the end I ended up buying a new battery because it would cost me pretty much the same to deliver my phone and pick it up, and then there's the time without the phone.

New battery = No problem.

Don't know why but I think I've screwed up mine with strobe flash.

Down side is that it uses a tiny bit more battery, but again, after doing the scrolling and search on browsers i switch it of and battery stats go back to "Normal" again.....my processor is running frequency on low 245 and high 1200, and governor is set to smartass v2, I/O to SIO and Zram to 18% default in the perf. menu.

If you are sure that your battery is 100% charged, go to CWM and clear the Battery Stats.

Then find some way to make the battery drain the soonest and then charge it again full without interrupting the process.

Hope it works!

I hope your phone will still be working after a few weeks.

Do you really think that a so cheap battery (1st reason to worry) could reliably provide double quantity of mah (2nd reason to worry), especially without other users mentioning this battery before (3rd reason to worry)??

Do you really think these batteries differ that much from original ones? For all I know, they could be made in the same factory and labeled with a different sticker. I bought a new battery for my iPod last year on EBay and had it delivered to Belgium (from USA). Price = 4$ including shipment and tools to open my iPod. My original battery was dead and labeled 650mA, the new one 900mA. All I can say is, my iPod never worked better. If I had done this officially (not even sure if Apple replaces batteries) I 'm sure it would 've cost me at least 100$.

So yeah, cheap batteries are definitely worth the 'risk' imho.
