Wait, when you download the zip from Asus web site the file name should be US_epad_user_9_4_5_30_20120907_UpdateLauncher.zip right? and when you unziped it should be this EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip? So what is the file name when you unziped?
[Asus Transformer TF700] redheadplantguy:
Us_epad-user-.9.4.5.30

It downgraded wiped all data too. Rooted and getting ready to try your advice about updating. I never heard i had to temp unroot first. Good luck to me. I'll let you know
[Asus Transformer TF700] redheadplantguy:
Crap. Lost root when updated back to jelly bean. Tried twice. Voodoo has no checkmark by protected copy available. Might take it to best buy. I have 2 year plan on it.

Tried a 3 rd time cause I thought manually updating many have been a problem, but "check for update" still shows none. Anytime firmware came through, never auto updated. They always failed.

Thinking of just returning it and have them get me another
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
You only can do manual downgrade to .30, but you must do OTA update from .30 to JB to preserve root. If you manually upgraded, it will wipe everything before upgrade. After you finished manual upgrad with .30 and when the os came up, and you connect it to the internet it should automatically download JB to your device and prompt you to upgrade, this is not happening??
[Asus Transformer TF700] redheadplantguy:
No. Every firmware, .26 .30 and JB, would download but fail installation. Now, I'm clicking " check for update" but it says none available

Rooted and back to ICS, but really miss JB too.
[Asus Transformer TF700] redheadplantguy:
I wanted to thank you. The first tablet overheated and suffered a meltdown. This worked on the replacement.

Thanks a bunch. I have rooted JB now

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mdt73:
I have an odd question. I currently have an NFC tag installed in my ibolt cradle in the car, set up to turn on GPS, turn off wi-fi, and enable bluetooth. Now, my phone rests on the tag itself when placed in the cradle. Every once in a while, not certain why, I hear the NFC bleep sound, which overrides my music playing thru the speakers, shutting the music off for a second. Is it not a good idea to have the phone resting on the tag itself?

Thanks, in advance.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bugsquirt:
Are you working with a custom rom or the stock rom? If stock, do you have the latest OTA release?

Also, if you have access to a second cradle, I'd test your phone on that one to see if you get the same result.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mdt73:
Stock rom.

This is an issue with the NFC tag, not the cradle. It's an NFC sticker I installed later.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Blue6IX:
Since we are talking about centimeters worth of range for the tag to be read - think the bumps in the road are causing your ghost reads?

What a PAIN!

Been a Linux 'nut' for many, many, many years. Compiling complete LFS Distros, etc.

And the boo-boos in the Cyanogen build is really irritating.

But, I've made a KANG CM7 rom, and will test it in the AM on my G1.

I know it won't be 'optimal', so...

A few questions for the devs out there:

Is there a how-to out there about optimizing the build for the G1/Dream?

What are the big 'no-nos' when it comes to the rom?

I'm fairly sure I'll have more questions as this goes along, but for now, answers to those 2 questions would keep me happily typing on my keyboard for awhile...

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] beamer786:
I was flashing between CyanogenMod 10 nightlies and DrewGaren's Jelly Bean roms, wiping data every single time and always doing a clean flash when I noticed on CyanogenMod 10/05 nightly that the GPS wasn't catching any satellites at all. It doesn't seem like it's even trying because the GPS dot doesn't even come up in the notification bar. I tried using GPS Test and it just says 0. Same thing with any other GPS application.

I tried flashing to other roms to see if it changed anything and still no luck. Finally, I flashed all the way back to AT&T stock in ODIN and still no luck!! I'm thinking of just taking it to the AT&T store and see if they can do anything about it, I don't know the warranty situation since I bought it off of Craigslist. Anybody have any ideas?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ajresendez:
Please don't go to ATT. We can't really help you since you bought it from a. craigslist and b. all we could do is get you to call warranty department in which case they may charge you since it was not purchased at the att store.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] g2tegg:
Do you know if the GPS ever worked??

Please go to dialer and type *#0*#. In that menu go to sensor test and make sure everything is working properly.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] beamer786:
Got it working

Hey, thanks for the help guys. I actually got it working. Flashed stock rom with ODIN and did a factory reset and it just started working out of no where. This was after 0 GPS signal on many different roms for over 24 hours.

No idea what caused it to stop working in the first place maybe some kind of conflict with the Drew Garen Sprint based Jelly Bean rom or maybe something in Cyanogen Mod 10/05 nightly. Perhaps the phone got tired of me flashing so many roms and just needed to rest overnight lol.

If anybody else has an issue with their GPS not catching signal at all flash all the way back to stock and factory reset and hopefully it'll sort the issue out.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] saj222:
Wow, everything you described in your OP is happening to me. I believe this happened to me after flashing DrewGaren's ROM too (4 point something). I tried it out then went back to Wanamlite, my DD, and experienced all that you said. After Wanam I flashed 2 or 3 other ROMs and got the same response... no GPS.

Just in the process of Odin flashing a stock image to see what happens.

Edit: Back to stock, then factory reset. Tried accessing the GPS service menu but that didn't work. Final result is that GPS is not working at all and here is no indication in the status bar. Looks like I'll be off to the Samsung store for service...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] beamer786:
I think the Drew Garen Milestone 4.5 has something to do with this. It's based on the Sprint leak and maybe that made our GPS wonky.

Just to let you know, the stock firmware I used was this one.

http://samsung-updates.com/get/648/Samsung_Firmware_SGH-I747_ATT_I747UCALG1_Android_4_0_4.html

Hopefully you can get it sorted out. Just wondering, how do you access the GPS service menu? Cause the code I know doesn't work on AT&T Galaxy S 3 at all so I want to see if the code you tried works on mine. Good luck getting your phone working.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] g2tegg:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] craigbailey1986:
I did the same here is the fix.

Odin rooted stock ROM

Boot up as normal

Then do a factory wipe under settings.

You should be good to go.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] saj222:
Thanks for the firmware link but I am in Canada with Telus.

As for the GPS Service Menu, I saw some dialer codes for accessing it but they don't seem to work for our model.

It's weird how GPS doesn't show up anywhere on the phone now. Not the status bar or in battery usage stats. I am beginning to wonder if this is a hardware issue more than anything.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] beamer786:
I know, it's like the GPS totally disappears from the phone, I thought it has a hardware issue too! I was actually on the phone with Samsung customer support and ended up fixing it while I was on hold.

On my first try I got no results too but when I downloaded the one from samsung-updates, flash via ODIN, and then factory reset the phone from settings that's when I finally got my GPS to work. They have the Telus software up there too if you want to give it a whirl. http://samsung-updates.com/get/2566/Samsung_Firmware_SGH-I747M_TLS_I747MVLALH1_Android_4_0_4.html

But at this point your only recourse might be to get done through Samsung customer support. Let us know what happens.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] saj222:
Thanks, that is the exact firmware I flashed. Just in the process of downloading the I747MVLALE8 version. I know it's older but worth a shot.

I'll update the thread as I go along but am most likely going to the Samsung store in a week or two so there will be a delay in my response.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Tyie101:
The disappearing gpshappened to me also. I flashed dg's m 4.5 and thats when I lost gps completely. I did all of the above mentioned in other threads and couldn't get it too come back. At&t replaced it for me. I would advise staying away from sprint leaks I guess.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] saj222:
Update:

Got in touch with Samsung. They forwarded me to the warranty repair company located in my neck of the woods (Vancouver, BC).

Company is called Service Absolut, located in Richmond around Westminster Hwy and No. 6 Road. There is another in Montreal for easterners.

Regular warranty service is 3 business days for $0 OR 3 hour express service for $30. This place isn't too far from my office so maybe I'll give the 3-day service a try..... on second thought I think the $30 might be worth it for same day service. :cyclops:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jpyeck:
I ran into the same or similar loss of GPS on DG Milestone 4.5 and 5. I was able to regain GPS on a CWM restore back to Milestone 4.

Really think this is a ROM bug that can be fixed in SW. I'm surprised to hear that some have had much tougher luck than I have.

Anybody heard anything from Drew Garen? (I don't have enough posts to comment in the main thread, or I'd be there)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] c47v3779:
Yep, this is exactly what happened to me.

I flashed DG's M4.5 and my GPS quit working. Very weird.

I tried 3 other ROMS and no luck. I ended up returning the phone.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] saj222:
Final update:

Took the phone to the service center. Tech looked at the phone and tested but couldn't find anything wrong. He replaced the mainboard and all is now fine. GPS is working well.

I really hope this was just a one time occurrence.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Scubabum:
So I ran into this same issue, although it was from flashing Smartguy's ROM and then going back to CM10. It does seem to be caused by using the Sprint leak. I was unable to recover my GPS with the above method of flashing to stock via Odin and doing the factory reset.

I decided to try going back to my Sprint leak via a Nandroid, this brought my GPS back. I then used my CM10 Nandroid again GPS was working perfectly, although I needed to use GPS test to get it working on CM10. Hope this helps others with this issue.

Maybe reading posts that you are pointed to will actually help you. Sounds to me like you bricked it by updating it legitimately, then letting it run out of charge whilst updating.

You may be able to unbrick your phone by going the custom ROM way, but if you wish to retain your warranty, maybe you could ask your question in a HTC forum or even whirlpool.

I know I can unbrick my phone if I misflash mine because I have a custom recovery done with instructions in the thread link provided by timmaaa. I have no idea on how to unbrick a locked bootloader phone, but I am sure that HTC would have provided a way.

And READ before being rude to members, we post links for a reason, its not just fobbing you off. If everyone was answered on every thread, people would be busy just typing all day.
