[HTC One X+] iggdawg:
most android GPS has some dependencies on the interwebs. Time to acquire fix depends quite a bit on having the right time (meaning NTP). So if you just walked into a starbucks and picked up wifi but havent completed negotiating yet, GPS may be making an NTP query that will stall. That sort of thing. There are quite a few silly little situations that can make for long fix times.

For what it's worth, the HOX+ has pretty fantastic GPS on the whole. I threw on GPS for giggles, and got a fix in 4 seconds as measured by the app ("GPS Status on the market has a "time to fix" option). Initial error was 10m and quickly went down to 5m or so. I'm on the bottom story of a 2 story house with an attic, and not near a window. Compared to my old HTC Inspire (American Desire HD), it's fairly insane. This is through 100 year old wood and nails with zero line of sight to the sky, and a neighbor living above me. So if your GPS is skipping around in standard car/travel GPS situations, there may be another issue.

[Motorola Droid 4] mediate:
Please help! My Droid 4 is rebooting after every few minutes, it is entirely unusable. As well, it is unwilling to accept my SIM card. IDK what happened, what triggered it, nor how to fix it. What I have done so far:

1. While rooted and using a lighter stock rom (myfishbear I believe), the phone started these loops. I turned it off, entered safestrap recovery and wiped dalvik, cache, and data. Rebooted, problems still occur.

2. Changed ROM to AOKP, reboots stop however SIM card does not function at all.

3. Changed back to stock, reboots continue, SIM card still not functioning.

4. Changed to CM10 patched to definitely work with GSM carriers (olegfusion's patch). SIM does not work. Not recognized, phone not connecting to network.

5. Went to "safe" system (if I understand correctly), the stock stock vanilla ICS system. Reboots continue, SIM still not working. Factory reset, dalvik wiped as well.

6. Decided to try to fastboot a recovery as a last resort. Fastboot works, however the problem still exhibits itself. SIM not working, reboots continue, and I cannot pass the activation screen to be able to try anything else.

Can anyone please help me? I saved any and all bug reports that were on internal before doing anything, I also created backups of the ROMs before going ahead and reflashing the thing. I have no idea what to do anymore :(

[About XDA developers] GldRush98:
I know this board is HUGE and I'm just one voice, but I wanted to get this out there.

Signature images should be disallowed.

That, or sig image sizes need to be heavily restricted.

It has gotten really out of hand as of late and makes the forum a scroll-fest. It is unnecessary and downright frustrating when surfing via a phone or tablet.

Case and point... 2 posts. One with one word, one with a very short sentence. 2 posts take up the ENTIRE screen. Come on...

Neither image adds anything useful to either poster's content and neither image is really useful for anything else.

Even more annoying is some user's sig images eat up an entire page by themselves. When half a thread's space is eaten up with worthless sig images, it just makes the board look like a cluttered mess.

Venting over.
[About XDA developers] Deadly:
you are right about images being a bit large in some cases which annoys me too when i am on PC.. but you mentioned its hard to navigate in site due to this at mobile and tablet.. there are apps for mobiles and tablets for that reason.. so why use site through browser when you have app which doesnt show these signatures?

there are some images which are too large which makes it hard.. but the above 2 doesnt seems to be that big.. but nice suggestion.. may be you should say this here to get mods/admins attention better..

This signature space is dedicated to the OT Thanks feature. RIP OT thanks, you shall be missed.
[About XDA developers] It_ler:
The first signature doesn't look too big IMO.

The post would be of same length without the signature.

Can't really say something about the second signature, as it does not end at the end of your screenshot.

So that could in deed be too big.

Extremely big signature should be reported to the forum specific maoderator (FSM), but if you feel that it is only "a little bit" too big, than you can PM the user in a friendly way.

I have done this several times like: "You have a very nice signature and a really good looking picture in there. Maybe you can even improve your signature by using a smaller picture or optimizing the arrangement of the parts in your signature so that your post can be read better. And this could also save some space in the threads as well."

All users that I PMed like this answered very pleased that they feel thankful for my tips and changed their signatures.

Maybe I was lucky ... but if you provide your help to optimize their sigantures, most people will at least tolerate it IMO.
[About XDA developers] Deadly:
You are right.. this has worked for me too.. told 2 guys.. they both happily did it..

[About XDA developers] SimonTS:
The problem with this 'solution' is that you are effectively encouraging people to hide signatures. However ... a lot of the longer-serving members have useful links in their sigs, the sort of things that a noob should see, notice and read to avoid asking stupid questions or breaking the rules of XDA. Hiding signatures means this information is lost.

[About XDA developers] DSF:
What I don't like is that I've observed people that put (LONG TEXT) signature in THE POST, tough with spoiler.. And I've seen an user with high posts count.

BUT the problem is that you just takes precious database space with duplicate/redundant data.

Signatures should be put ONLY in signature section and not in the post.

PS: the in-post signature I've seen really contains pretty long text (about used phone, rom, kernel, etc) and in most cases the signature length is higher than the actual post information.

PS2: I'm not talking about tapatalk signatures "Posted using Tapatalk". Even If I do not agree with those too, because there are work-arounds. Eg: extract tapatalk information from post's user agent [I doubt that Tapatalk doesn't send custom UA in combination of actual mobile). This way you can save a lot of DB tables space.

Signatures should be smaller than the avatar

Signatures should be smaller than the avatar, it is logical.

In recent years we have seen websites with footer very high, even higher than the head, but a post in a forum thread must have always the head bigger than the footer, because the signature can not interrupt the flow of reading, and this is achieved only if the signature is smaller than the avatar... ;)
[About XDA developers] :
Are you serious?

Xda restricts avatar sizes to 80*80 pixels.

Find me a signature of size less than that.

Also stop bumping old threads like this. You post your suggestions in feed back/recommendations thread.

[About XDA developers] Eures:

[About XDA developers] :
Not yet. I believe they just asked to report big sigs whenever you see them. Anything more than 400-450 pixels should be considered big.

And also I got rid of that [square bracket]. Its just Bruce Wayne now.

A Hero Can Be Anyone.
[About XDA developers] Deadly:
they said you should report according to your judgment. As until now users judgment was quite good enough.. anything of height more than 200/250 and width more than 800 would be big I feel.. well, people have different tolerance level. So if you feel the sig is bit big or bigger than the sig should be..

just send a friendly pm to that user to reduce it and state the reason.. if he doesn't change in 2 days.. then you can report him.. I have asked some.. believe me, they change it.. most of them didn't think it was big.. that's all..

And that 0.99999 thread is beaten to death.. I wish you had not put it in sig lol.. just my 2 cents.. but over all no problem.. just saying there is room for improvement..

as I said mate.. everyone have different opinion as its usually because of their monitor configuration.. and besides I don't have any issues with it usually.. as I'm on app almost all the time except for few occasional times when I need to report or to check portal news..

Mine is a 700x150.. I don't like pics over 150 height.. but 200 is OK for me.. 250 is stretching it.. anything more.. I definitely pm them.. and total signature size(without post content) shouldn't cross the left side avatar+info fields heights.. that's how I judge the signature size..

[About XDA developers] roofrider:
Yup.

In height 200px - 300px is perfect imo, but since most mods have higher limits i've upped mine to 400px. So anything over 400px means, i report.
[About XDA developers] GermainZ:
I agree 600px is too much. My signature (including text) is just under 300px, which IMO is okay (I realize I can further trim it by using alignleft/right tags, but I usually avoid that... it just messes the formatting up on most resolutions by inserting huge horizontal gaps).

Now imagine double that. Too much.

As for width, I think anything that fits on all monitors is okay. The sidebar must be taken into consideration tho, so I'd personally go with 600px max.
