[HTC One V] Caebron:
Hi guys, I'm contemplating making the switch to Virgin Mobile Prepaid getting the One V (from ATT, Atrix 4G). My primary concern is GPS as I do rely on it quite a bit getting from A-Z.

Can anyone verify the One V NOT having any GPS issues? Or should I look for a different phone if GPS is an important feature for me?
[HTC One V] mihirengg19:
if GPS is a primary concern, I say u look for a different phone.there are lot of problems with GPS,WiFi in HTC devices. u may also find threads about GPS not working,WiFi not working, here and in one s and one x forums.other than that this phone is delightful.
[HTC One V] Caebron:
Thanks for the feedback! Can you be more specific as to what the issues are?
[HTC One V] mihirengg19:
Well sometimes the GPS suddenly shows errors in location giving wrong locations sometimes(happened with me).sometimes even if u have enabled location access and GPS satellites, there will be an error getting your location update(also happened with me;recently I saw two such cases here on XDA).

These are of course my experiences other people may present different views.
[HTC One V] Caebron:
Ok, thanks! I can live with the occasional error as long as it gets me back on track. I had huge issue with the Samsung Galaxy about 1 1/2 yrs ago (cant remember if it was the I or the II). It would loose GPS signal and didn't get back on track until I drove around lost for several hours. I returned it and got the Atrix 4G instead. My current Atrix 4G (MB860) will take several minutes to find a GPS signal, but once it's locked on it is rock rolid.
[HTC One V] ckpv5:
For me.. GPS on One V looks a little bit funny as there is no compass

Other than that, it is ok.

Use this fix for better GPS experience.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] CheeseDave:
Hi,

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a protection, to avoid illegal film copying.

I bought a HDMI cable to my Xperia Neo, but my display doesn't support HDCP, so my phone disables the signal immadiatelly (first time tried to plug it in, there was pictore for some seconds.. nothing since than).

Tried switching modes in service menu, and messing around with the options but I was not able to disable this protection.

Is it possible to disable it somehow?

I'm using Lupus kernel, maybe it should be implemented in that?

Thanks for the help, I can't really afford a new display just because of this..

Here's some speedtest I ran.Not the fastest but we finally have LTE. Let's hope it gets faster. View attachment 1631969View attachment 1631970View attachment 1631971
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Logix:
it dosent sprint only rates it at 6 megs or something stupid. maybe at the end of the nv roll out it might improve

or not because you took thoes speed test with decent db and probally little to no tower load on the lte core

you do realize this should be part of the sticky on top
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DirtyShroomz:
Where did you read that Sprint rates it at 6 only?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Logix:
sprint.com/lte

maybe it was 10 but it was something stupid low

oh yeah its 6-10 they rate its final roll out at.

sad cuz vzw is capable 30+ non spiking with a large load

anyone know the reason why?

never seen that speed even at sprint hq...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DirtyShroomz:
Sprint came out as fastest lte in recent tests. I would say partly due to low loads. It's 6-8 average and 25 peak. I'd say just fine enough speeds for a cell phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Logix:
speed test made and skewed by sprint?

do you know what the others are rated at?... there a reason why sprint rates that low cuz their user load will be crazy and slow to a crawl like the last couple years.

also they have inferior spectrum holdings /backhaul ( there using microwave in some places) and from my personal experience they are rarely/ never pay to be at the top of a tower

atts hsdpa is capable of 6 megs not to mention their lte is faster + 800 coverage has been around for a while for them ill be lucky if i ever see 800 coverage in st pete.

... just simple facts not knocking ya or anything ( or sprint for that matter)

im happy with them finally after backhaul to my tower by my house got installed finally see over 1 meg some times on cdma altho nv/lte is not complete

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] swimmerman272:
Got a GS3 a little over a month ago in exchange for an Evo LTE that was having serious text message issues. As soon as I got it, I was experiencing absolutely horrible battery life, so I immediately rooted and installed Blazer rom on stock kernel. I did this through Odin, so I had to plug my phone into the computer, which recognized it as a USB storage device so I could access files and whatnot.

Fast forward to now and I"m still having seriously battery life concerns. Today, I ran the one-click unroot/return to 100% stock zip from this link. I tried to plug my phone into my pc to load the file, but though it will charge, the PC won't recognize the phone. I ended up downloading the file to the phone and resetting to stock (thinking I was taking it to Sprint tonight). I made sure the most up-to-date Samsung drivers were installed. I updated my chipset drivers. My USB 3.0 drivers. I even updated the BIOS. Tried three different USB cords and all 14 USB ports (2.0 and 3.0). No luck. Windows keeps saying "One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunction and WIndows does not recognize it." I have XP, 7, and 8 all installed on this box and none would properly recognize my phone.

My question is whether this is a computer problem or a phone problem. Given my semi-advanced knowledge of computer hardware, I'm inclined to believe this is actually a problem with the phone, but don't want to go waste an hour or two at Sprint trying to get it fixed. Any insight is greatly appreciated. Picture of actual error included.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] davelikestacos:
Wish I could help. I had a few issues connecting my S3 to my work computer, but downloading the Samsung drivers for the Sprint Galaxy S3 L710 from the Samsung web-site solved that problem. I'm using XP at work. On my home computer and my laptop, which are both using Windows 7 Ultimate, I haven't had an issue though.

Maybe try using the driver from the Samsung web-site or trying to install Samsung Kies and then connecting your phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] swimmerman272:
I tried Kies. I installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled the drivers twice, with a restart inbetween each step to be safe. No luck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] swimmerman272:
Stopped by the Sprint store today. They couldn't get it to work either so as it turns out it was actually the USB port on the phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
So if I have an airave I can just change my PRL to 25011 using QPST or do I have to follow all the steps above?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gpz1100:
BD, I wouldn't do anything unless you're having the issue I was.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
Yea I have not had many problems with my Airave until last night the mobile light was flashing for hours it finally went green on it's own, may have just been a Sprint thing who knows and thanks for your reply :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gpz1100:
Flashing trying to establish a connection, or flashing because maybe someone else was locked on to it... Did you get the usual 3 beeps when making a call?

My issue came to be mainly after LTE was lit up around here. That's when I started noticing the phone connecting to that strange 22439 sid and handoffs to the airave were flaking out.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
To be honest I was told when someone connected to the Airave there was a beep but... mine has never beeped even when I make a call. So maybe I have it hooked up wrong.My setup is modem to router to Airave. I had it modem to Airave to router before but I noticed my internet was slowing down could be all in my head but after I changed it my speeds went up
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gpz1100:
The three beeps I refer to are heard on the HANDSET's earpiece. Not from the airrave itself. The flashing top light (Mobile light) flashes during the device's init process and whenever there is a voice/data connection in use.

As for hooking up, modem - router - airave should be fine. Considering how much grief it's caused, I don't trust it to function as a router. In fact, I have a dedicated lan port on my wrt54g that separates the airave onto it's own subnet so it's completely isolated from the rest of my network.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
Ok I was wondering why all of a sudden my phone would beep when I made a call hahaha thanks for clearing that up
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lazydazed:
I was having the same problem... So I called sprint and they sent me a new 2.5 airave. 2 days later perfect connection and faster 3g... Cost for me - $0.00
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gpz1100:
^^How did you describe your problem to them?

I told 'em mine would work for data but not voice.

They never offered to swap it out for me. Too late now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lazydazed:
I told them nothing worked.. then they had me trouble shoot over the phone... Only one light would come on before during and after. So the tech said that it was shot and they would send one out..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] franky_402:
2.5 airrave?? I'm curious which one that is, i have a tall white one, my evo 3d would connect fine but the evo connects sometimes and usually it wont, also when my phone has lte (at home) it randomly drops to 3g or 1x and does a dance...

Thanks!

I stumbled across this thread after a frustrating 3 days, and 8+ hours on the phone with Airave support. I don't have an Evo, but I do have a Galaxy S3 and was experiencing similar problems. My GS3 would not connect to the Airave 2.5 at all. They suggested replacing my handset (for a refurb, nonetheless), but I was convinced it had to be something else.

After installing your modified PRL, it works perfectly. I connect to the Airave with no problem for voice every time.

Thank you! :good:

The prl i linked in the OP is a bit outdated at this point, but the technique is still good. Grab a current prl from one of the prl threads and just apply the change.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] amcferrin90:
[MENTION=2179192]gpz1100[/MENTION], two questions. First, I have done this yet my phone will still randomly prefer anything over my airave. Using the modded PRL used to work but about 2 weeks ago quit. When I say anything, Sprint PCS, Sprint 1xA or even Verizon. Been through all the support stuff, went back to stock PRL and activation. Thoughts??

Second, when I use DFS to read the PRL and then save it, the PRL file is 0 bytes. I can load up a saved PRL file and write it to the phone no problem so the basics have been covered. This would be a S3.

It seems you've left the big S though.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gpz1100:
1) Need to where in the PRL you've added the airave sid/nid combo. Location makes a difference because entries at the top have greater priority than those at the bottom. Use a tool like cdma field test tool to determine where you're actually connecting. Then see where that SID is in the prl relative to your airrave sid.

2) Something is wrong, are you unlocking the device properly before reading the prl? Perhaps you need to use a 16 digit password to read the prl? I'm not familiar with the s3, so you'll get little help there. Maybe check in the s3 section to see what's required to successfully read a prl.

3) I am officially done with sprint. Good riddance. Going on over a month now on a big red mvno. Data much improved over sprint.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] amcferrin90:
I actually went to the last entry in the previous Geo and over-wrote that with SID 4418 NID 501 which are what my Airave is transmitting on. I made that entry "new" for the Geo I'm in and changed the previous first Geo entry to same. Digiblur suggested I see what channel my Airave was transmitting on to make sure the channel was in the the acq record for me Geo. That channel was not so I added it. From then things were great until about 2 weeks ago. Since then it seems several people are having problems connecting to the Airave's.

The device gets unlocked, I get message indicating so in the DFS log.

I dunno. Frustrating.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SleepyS40:
Ok so I too had this issue with my evo4g lte not connecting to my new airave 2.5. I called airave customer support and after trouble shooting some things the tech finally pushed a new prl to my phone and all was taken care of. I am using prl 61096. He said if my phone tried to update the prl automatically I would loose the ability to connect to my airave so I just switched back to cm10.2 after I hung up the phone with them and I haven't had an issue with it yet.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gpz1100:
If you don't have a need for huge data consumption, and verizon has good coverage in your area, come to the darkside - prepaid... Even save a few bucks! :)

[MENTION=2560539]SleepyS40[/MENTION], you are very lucky you got a competent tech who understood why it wasn't connecting. Those are few and far between (competent techs that is). Had you remained on sense, sprint could potentially push a prl update automatically.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] peacepenguin:
new fix, similar method

I tried the method in this thread to solve an identical problem on my note 3. 3g data was using airave, but not voice. I found the sid /nid combo of my airave and used those values to create the "more" (high) priority PRL. It didn't have any effect. It seems the priority field is no longer being respected on some (or all?) devices.

So instead I created a single black list entry for the "bad" Sid/Nid that my phone always wants to connect to. I think this is OK since the blacklist entry is for SID 22408 NID:237. The only other entry for that sid was: 22408 NID 65535. A NID value like that indicates ALL NIDs for a given SID. So I only blacklisted the single NID, hopefully allowing the other NIDs on that SID to still be able to be connected to.

This method is not as "clean" as the original posters fix, but it was the only way I could get the voice traffic to work over the airave.

fyi, i have the airave 2.0 - hub bub 600, but I think this will apply to all three versions of the "airave" line.

-peacep
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ahecht:
Make sure that you are putting that line in the right place. You have to find your airrave SID in the PRL and scroll up until you find a Geography "New" line and put your higher proprity line above that. In my case it had to go as the first line of the PRL since my airrave was on SID 4106.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] 哈小凡:
origin：

just 3 steps

1、run 替换JB内核.bat

2、ROOT（run XT910_JB4.1.2_TEST_ROOT.bat)（bp tools start 3times）or use your own ics root tools

3、run 恢复JB内核.bat

due to it's China Retail

you may should backup and clean the mmcblk1p18

说一下原理，将4.1.2测试版的内核替换为4.0.4 145版本的内核然后进行root，然后再换回4.1.2测试版的内核。

相信会使用fastboot的童鞋已经懂了。。。

注意：

此root是用于4.1.2测试版的。请以后OTA以及正式版别使用。。。。

确保你的电脑安装了摩托罗拉USB驱动。如果没装，请速度下载。

摩托罗拉USB驱动官方最新版本，MOTO设备管理器2.3.4

方法是：

1、下载附件，解压缩。

重点：进入手机 设置→开发人员选项→USB试调（勾上）。

请关闭所有手机辅助类软件的服务，比如豌豆荚，手机助手这些，如果不会就先卸载掉吧，等root完了再装。

因为他们可能会占用adb服务，造成root失败

2、运行(替换JB内核.bat)

重点：替换内核后，手机第一屏会持续黑屏，进不去主屏幕，不要担心不是变砖。直接往后执行ROOT即可。

3、进行ROOT(运行XT910_JB4.1.2_TEST_ROOT.bat)

root会重启3次，每次重启需要选择bp tools。就是在fastboot菜单里面选择bp tools确定即可。

恢复JB内核后一切恢复正常。

4、脚本提示root成功后，运行恢复JB内核.bat

看下ROOT过程的说明：

1、首先进入手机 设置→安全→允许未知程序安装（勾上）。

2、进入手机 设置→开发人员选项→USB试调（勾上）。

3、下拉菜单，USB连接模式请一定选择 MTP 模式。

4、将手机插上数据线。下载XT910MAXX4.1.2测试版ROOT工具到电脑，解压缩。

进入解压缩后的文件夹双击XT910_JB4.1.2_TEST_ROOT.bat

过程中如果提示按任意键继续，就照做。ROOT的过程中手机会自动重启的，耐心等待root完成。。
