Installed drive link but the weather is blank it says to enable locagion services and data services which are enabled

anyone experienced the same trouble?
[Galaxy S III General] elcom:
Same here.

AFAIK the app has been released in the UK. Cant find the logic but it might only work there for now.

Or maybe only on UK based roms.
[Galaxy S III General] laxity:
I'm in the UK and have the same issue. I suspect that its a bug at the moment judging by the comments on the samsung app page :

http://www.samsungapps.com/topApps/topAppsDetail.as?productId=G00008708915&isCommentCall=Y#

Its new software so its probably work in progress still as there seems to be limited features at the moment.

BTW, has anyone tried Sat Nav software other than Goole Navigator yet? e.g. CoPilot? Does it work?
[Galaxy S III General] lodger:

CM10

It installs and works fine on the latest CM10 release. Seems it doesn't need Touchwiz to function properly :)
[Galaxy S III General] femmecullen:
Been testing it and so far Navigation supposed to work with Google Navigation and TelNav I'm currently on a country not supported by both but it recognises them

Also shortcuts aren't working as I thought so, Twitter isn't any where go find even after I added my account just Facebook messages
[Galaxy S III General] lodger:
i was hoping shortcut would let me start my apps, ie torque, igo etc.. but i did get my wifes number on short cut....GREAT :(
[Galaxy S III General] femmecullen:
Can't change the default number set on the shortcuts :mad:

No music song can be added in shortcuts dvdn if it says so

It keeps the phone on also so watch the battery if not connected while driving

Hoped for at least Google Maps on the Navigation menu but no so no usd fof countries not supported by Navigation
[Galaxy S III General] lodger:
yes i noted it keeps the phone on even if you turn screen off, which said turn sceen off with nav running and by by gps lock..

almost forgot only numbers i could chose was ones i set as favorites

I bought this phone specifically for the MirrorLink capability. Thanks for posting the apk. I'm going to try to sync it with my car on my way home.

Anyone know why they didn't make the app available in the US?
[Galaxy S III General] zen0s:
they just released update for this app, i hope they fixed the screen timing out issue and running in the background draining battery issue
[Galaxy S III General] laxity:
Thanks for the info. Looks like the screen time out issue is fixed. Can't see much else new. Wish they would post a changelog with each release. Anyone know if any other Sat Nav Apps are supported yet other than the default Navigator?
[Galaxy S III General] mrjoshzombie:
Anybody have the latest APK for us USA users?
[Galaxy S III General] berutti:
at the moment it's buggy.

confirmed on my device:

- screen won't turn off some times while installed (not even started). solved uninstalling

- overheating and higher battery usage while installed (think solved uninstalling)

one question: someone did test it with mirrorlink car monitor? i really wanted to buy one, (sony)

but i want to know if you can manage only the drivelink screen or also other applications..

if only the drivelink it's not really interesting...!
[Galaxy S III General] laxity:
I have an Alpine ICS-X8 app link station which uses Mirrorlink from the GS3. Currently the only applications that are supported at the moment are the ones in drive link. i.e. Google Navigator Sat Nav, and Internet Radio apps TuneIn and Radioclock App. More app support should hopefully be coming.

Currently the Nokia Drive supports MirrorLink the best. It lets you run just about every application from the phone using a feature called "MirrorMode". Here's a demo on youtube showing Angry Birds running on the car dash headunit via Nokia phone....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCDuwXJ3zcg

Samsung need to pull their finger out of their arse as DriveLink sucks at the moment compared to the Nokia Drive offering.

Samsung DriveLink I would class as Alpha software at this stage, as it has so many problems and limited features.

i'm so disappointed that samsung software is, once more, so crappy :(

let's move on that other thread hoping that a full support will be released, it would be fantastic...
[Galaxy S III General] acemccloud1:
Folks,

what are the chances that we can have DriveLink on SG Grand Duos GT - i9082? I downloaded the APK file and tried installing it on my SGG. The installation was successful, but when I tried to run the app, it threw up an error saying that it had to close :'(

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
[Galaxy S III General] mg67_:
I have the head unit from Sony that supports mirror link but iam a bit confused. It says only the Galaxy S3 or Note 3 can use this program but doesnt the S2 have the same Android OS as those 2? If it does and i think its Android 4.1.01 Jellybean or something, wouldnt that be all that mattered, it should work with that OS if it works with the above phones that use the Android OS...yes?? maybe Samsung just say to use the S3 because its a more expensive phone than the S2, i had a look today and the S2 has the same OS. If iam wrong please correct me, iam having this unit installed on Sat and i want to buy the S2 tonight if it works with Mirror link. Another thing, for the life of me i CANNOT d/l the app, Drive Link for MediaLink from samsung apps, i have Kies and everything and i just cant d/l the bloody thing. If someone here has it could you please post a link so i can get it. Maybe if its so buggy atm and it will support more phones in the near future, maybe i should have patience and wait but patience is something i dont have, unfortunetly. Thanks
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingod513:
Hi all,

My Nexus7 screen will automatically dim out while watching movies through apps. It will dim until all dark and i donno way to turn the screen back. The movie is still running though with sound on but no screen. I didnt turn on auto brightness. does anyone's N7 has the same issue i am having? How may I fix it, thx
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingod513:
No one has screen dimming problem? :confused:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oneG:
I don't know if screen flicker and screen dimming are the same thing but I encounter a similar issue whenever brightness is below 30 percent.... Other than that my Nexus is flawless besides a rare notification freeze

Sent from my Nexus 7
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingod513:
So, if mine is also called a screen flicker, how do I fix it?

When my N7 screen went all black out, I have to use a torch towards my N7 screen sensor to have the screen bright up again :(
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lambohoos:
I just got mine yesterday. Not rooted but I noticed if the screen auto turns off....sometimes it is locked up. Hitting the power button won't do a thing. Have you had this problem?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingod513:
Yes, i have this problem too. Then when I have no torch beside me for the sensor, i would need to press power button for 10sec+ for a reboot. How suck it is. This is the only thing bugging me on N7
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lambohoos:
I just got off the phone with Google play. Having a new unit sent to me. Glad to hear (unfortunately) you are having similar issues.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingod513:
So, no one seems to know how to fix, then it's hardware problem and have to send to ASUS?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] testcenter:
hey!

if it is the same issue as i have (screen turns off in auto brightness or manually set the brightness to minimum), i dont think it is an hardware issue.

i think the minimum background light is set wrong in the system.

also i dont think it is hardware related, because many other owner af a n7 are reporting this issue.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingod513:
So is that means only hope is hope for next firmware fixing it?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] testcenter:
i dont know... if so, i hope for a quick fix

but you could try the app

tegra prism toggle

(costs about 1$, needa root)

maybe it helps
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingod513:
testcenter, thanks for the recommanded app, but i not wanna root at this moment.

I guess in the mean time just not using auto brightness and pray for not dim out again

hey buddy asking which Rom/Kernel/Modem is best is against XDA rules, u have to try a cpl of them on ur own to see the one that best suits ur needs:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheATHEiST:
"Best rom" threads are not allowed for various reasons, one been "best" is subjective, another been that if they was allowed we would have millions of the pointless topics all over the place.

If you want to find the "best" rom go and try them and find out!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
Try them all, they are all good.

If you are not happy with a ROM, just flash another one.

Thank you for your quickly reply. I thought, this was a development question. I'm guessing that putting a ublox driver into nmea mode can only be done as part of a development task. This issue is blocking an NDK (JNI) project.

Is this forum for only ROM modifications?

It will depend on the carrier and what colors it chooses to bring on board.

So far it looks like Tmo is only looking at the black one.

Either way, I wouldn't use an upgrade just to get a different color or even try to sell the one I have and pay the difference.

That's usually how it goes, that's the negative of getting the device first and not holding up.

But being a Raiders fan, that Grey is ****in sick!!

Help, I think I messed up my phone (HTC Desire Z). I tried 2 root my phone. But after I s-off my phone I tried to reboot it and... It woudn't work :c. Can anyone help me? I searched for it but I Didn't find anything what can bring my phone back up. Please Help me someone.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
well after the downgrade process you would be @ froyo, I'm sure a diffrent os then you were using, this would have changed you radio/spl and rom at the same time so there would be a functional os. after obtaining s-off and a eng hboot then you in a sence wiped your phone of an os, therefore it will not boot.

one of the things in the guide you followed (assuming you followed a proper guide and did things correctly) was to install a custom recovery. boot into recovery and flash rom of choice... now your phone works
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] McBunnz:
Thank you so mush for your replay. But I don't know what you really mean. I did follow a guide @the unlocker. And I did every step correctly. But can you maybe give me a guide what I need to do? I'm just a android noob :c. What to I need 2 do exactly?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
not sure what the unlockr uses for root, if you don't have an eng hboot then you may not have fastboot access. just boot into bootloader and check

first some lines should say either eng soff or ship soff, if it is ship soff I suggest following a different guide to root as you will have many headaches without an engienering spl

also the search function works quite well in both xda and google, just look for terms like adb for dummies, or fastboot commands. if you are having issues just report back with your findings
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] McBunnz:
Thank you for you replay. It says soff. But the problem is that I can't use my phone anymore with adb. And I can't get in to my phone anymore. I stuck @the HTC startscreen and it woudn't continue .c My phone is bricked but I cant recover it anymore :c
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
why can't you use adb or fastboot? did you try? and does it say eng soff or ship soff on your bootloader screen?

---------- Post added at 12:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 PM ----------

also have you tried booting into recovery? hold volume down while powering on, then select recovery, it should then reboot to recovery, what do you see here, a triangle with a ! or clockwork? or what?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] McBunnz:
If I Try to use ABD It say's Device is offline. Or Cant connect 2 device. Ant It says 'ENG S-OFF' and when I try to Recovery there happends nothing, There is just that a triangle with a. ;C i'm so desperate.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
then your rooting method did not get you a custom recovery, you will be best of going to irc freenode #g2root, here you will get real time help. being you have an eng spl there is a good chance things can be fixed. just make sure you jump the gun and try to flash a pc10img.zip from hboot, if you flash the wrong one you will be stuck for good, so be double careful how you proceed from here

just google search irc freenode, and sign into #g2root and create a temp name, if no one is there to help right away just stick around a bit and I'm sure some one will show... be patient
[Desire General] jmcclue:
The best way is to change splash screen is do it via fastboot commands or android flasher but if ur laptop is retarded like mine and dont connect to ur phone then ur stuck. After ALOT of searching i found nothing so i thought id try and do it the PB99IMG way, and it works. After a few fails i got it to work, iv uploaded a PB99IMG.zip file which has the android-info.txt inside it. The splash screen is from Alpharev (why so serious) just rename it to splash1 so it should look like splash1.img and put that in the PB99IMG.zip file then put it on ur sdcard, boot into bootloader and it will find the PB99IMG and ask to update splash? volume up for yes then it will ask to reboot? volume up for yes, and ur done. it works coz i done it

Now heres the problem... it only works with ".img" just like if u do it with hboot or recovery, hboot.img and recovery.img etc etc

so if anyone knows a way to convert jpeg, png, etc etc into img format or how to create it like alpharev did then please share coz i found 0

solved thanks to handy5876. if anyone wants to know how just click the links in handy5876 post below. so now we can change splash screen using PB99IMG method (thats if any1 cares lol)

I've just installed the Lloir's CM9 RC0 (great rom!) and try to restore data from my previous ROMs via advanced restore... however, I got stuck at CM boot screen...

Any suggestion? I'm too lazy to reinstall all the apps and don't wanna lose app data.

When you restore data from previous ROM which is a sense ROM, it will put some Sense data in data partitioon and this will create problem on a CM ROM.
