Garmin GLO?

I would get this KFHD7 if only I knew I could get my Garmin GLO working on it. This is the one feature that prevents me from springing for a Kindle.

Has anyone tried a Garmin GLO on theirs yet with any success or failures?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stescodec:
Thanks for the info.

I have an old OnCourse BT GPS V20 receiver.

The steps I needed:

1. Rooted Kindle Fire HD

2. Installed Google PlayStore

3. Installed Google Maps

4. Installed KFHD_xSettings (from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2124384 )

5. In KFHD_xSettings -> Misc. turn on "Developer options."

(Previous steps were done awhile ago, but I think they were the only things needed for the following steps.)

6. From top pulldown menu -> More... -> Device -> Developer Options -> select "Allow mock locations."

7. From top pulldown menu -> Wireless -> Bluetooth -> pair with my BT GPS V20 ( after entering code (0000) Kindle says it is not compatible, but it shows it in the list of available devices)

8. Installed Mobilej Bluetooth GPS ( had to side load - downloaded from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=37719385&postcount=13 )

9. Unchecked "Force GPS Position" in Bluetooth GPS Provider preferences. (otherwise app immediately stops) (thanks gflorezarroyo)

10. Selected Scan in Bluetooth GPS Provider and selected the BT GPS V20.

11. Selected Start in Bluetooth GPS Provider.

Working fine with Google Maps so far, have not tried any other GPS applications yet...
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gflorezarroyo:
If you want to have the maps from Google but without wifi nor tethering connexion from a phone, there is an app called Alpine quest (two versions, one free).

It lets you add your own maps created on PC with a program called Mobile Atlas Creator. M-A-C is a program that takes the tiles from Google-maps and other sources and transforms they in a map that you can insert in the Alpine quest directory of your Kindle(AQM files).

Then you can explore free without connexion.

KFSOWI bricked following these steps - but renaming instead overwriting "settings.db"

[KFSOWI v11.3.1.0_user_310084920 bricked while enabling mock location for bluetooth gps

My steps:

1. KFSOWI v11.3.1.0_user_310084920 succesfull rooted

2 . next steps like http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2019571

but different:

3. renamed the original "settings.db" to "settings.db.org"

4. copyd the modified "settings.db" back in the original folder

After shutdown and restart the KFSOWI remains in a loop showing colored "KindleFire"

Was my mistake renaming "settings.db" instead of overwriting?

The command "adb devices" shows still the device id.

The command "adb reboot" reboots the KFSOWI - but without success.

Which commands are necessary for solving the problem?

Please write the steps very detailed - I´m an new linux user.

A lot of thanks to the community for answering

There is nothing you can do now. If you are in a loop then you need to factory reset and that is not possible at the moment. I would recommend getting a replacement from Amazon.

My Kindle is back

My Kindle is back (without factory reset :))

My steps:

1. adb shell

2. su

3. cd /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases

4. mv settings.db settings.db.mod

--> Kindle starts

5. ls --> settings.db

settings.db-shm

settings.db-wal

settings.db.mod

settings.db.org

6. exit

7. exit

My Kindle seems working normally, bat the bar with the home-button is missing ... :(

So i cannot switch between apps and i have to restart the device for opening a new one ...

Via adb is access as su still possible, but ES File Explorer and the superuser App have no root-access ???

Should i reset to factory defaults via the settings menue or is a restore of the bar with the home butten in another way possible ???

Hey Ive been messing around with PSX emulator FPse and its great, but theres so many settings and I cant find a good combo that includes OpenGL turned on. Turned off i get a constant 100+FPS Obvi too fast so i turn on framelimiter and limit it to 62.

Maybe a diff emulator??

It's not free however the developer actually listens to peoples problems and it gets frequent updates.

The settings seem to vary per game and device so play around and see what works. I usually leave it at default unless something is wrong.

Most common setting with PSX emulators I have to change is the sound sync.

I have this phone, but want to restore to Android 2.2, as well. However, I have no idea where this would be. I just upgraded it, w/the official 2.3.5 firmware update. Unfortunately, it's not working out. :confused: So, I've been calling my phone service & Huawei & frantically searching, online, for this "downgrade". Your post has been the closest to finding it. If you'd be so kind as to sharing...I'd certainly appreciate it.

Also, should I leave my SIM card in/out, while upgrading?

Hope this isn't a bother...I'm just trying to figure out what's best/simplest.

If you still have your nandroid backup you could try restoring it, first wiping EVERYTHING, except the sd card,, and then restoring,,, but if you say that you flashed the stock p505 firmware, and it didn'd worked, i would say is hardware related....

This topic has created a software engineer Dmitry Groshovsky. This topic will discuss the development of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean for the device Sony Ericsson Xperia X10i. At the moment there is only one assembly of the operating system that is currently full of errors and bugs. If you develop the Android operating system or understand their side of engineering, then help us in the development of Jelly Bean.

Google Android 4.1 Jelly Bean OS:

2. [CM10] Lerigos Ion by Logic [JB][1.3Ghz] - Belarus Developer

3. [CM10] Jelly Bean AOKP {simonchik95} - Russia Developer

Installation requirements Jelly Bean:

1. Unlocked bootloader

2. Firmware Android 2.3 or Android 4.0

3. Installed drivers SEMC HSUSB and SEMC Flash Device

The firmware works:

ADB Mode

Airplane Mode

Sound and Bluetooth

Camera (use the patch)

Screen (Use the latest kernel)

The firmware does not work

No Wi-Fi

No Network

Instructions for installing firmware:

1. Download firmware and copy to the memory card

2. Download and install the kernel

3. Log in under restoration and select "Install from SD Card"

4. Select your firmware and click "OK".

5. Start your OS

I am now thinking to unlock.

1. Is Rooting = unlocking the phone?

2. What is the best and safe way to Root the phone?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] elesbb:
Rooting gives the user access to system files. Unlocking allows your device to function with other SIM cards.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] vinnyjr:
If you bought your phone thru T-Mobile you can call T-Mobile and ask them for the unlocking code. I simply told T-Mobile I was traveling to Europe and wanted to put a European sim card in my phone and use it over there which was true. Within 24 hours I was sent the unlocking code. I can now put just about any sim card into my phone and I am all set. I can also put AT&T's sim card in my phone and get their HSPA+ network without any problems. No rooting needed, just unlock the phone, put the AT&T sim card in and the T-Mobile SGS3 is on the AT&T Network. The T-Mobile version of the SGS3 IMO is the most versatile version of the SGS3, you can get it with 32GB of int memory, 2GB of ram and use it on all Networks, The T-Mobile SGS3 is the only version of the SGS3 that can do all these things.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ayeitschris:
Rooting is basically the same thing as "jailbreaking*". It removes the restriction to having all files acessable on the phone. Nothing more nothing less.

And unlocking is when you want to use a simcard from a different carrier on your phone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Bass_Man25:
If you call T-Mobile and ask them for the unlock code, they'll email you the unlock code so you can unlock the phone. I've done it before with my MyTouch4G and am going to call them to unlock my SGS3, as I travel to Canada and use Rogers SIM cards.
