Also I'd like to suggest the application "Android System Info" as well which does not require root. Since the majority of people here are obviously modding and such few new members actually follow the rules and read around and are oblivious to if they have an S3 or S4 One S. This app with give you information that allows you to determine this easily along with just about anything else you could ask for in a good format.

Is anyone else experiencing this problem with slider messaging on their stock sense V4+ JB 4.1.1 one S devices?

as you open slider messaging, a box pops up saying "unfortunately messaging has stopped" and the app just closes

Didn't happen with previous versions, but with the update just before V3.5, it started happening.

No one else seems to be experiencing the same problem :confused:

Most neccessary apps are aready on your list, but I'd add:

- Ultimate custom widget (most powerful tool for designing your own widgets, though a bit complicated);

- EveryCircut (absolutely a must-have for every engineer);

- Youtube Remote (remote control for youtube on your PC).

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lingowistico:
The GPS takes 5 minutes to lock, and it does it at 1600 meters (un)accuracy.

It behaves like this no matter what rom i try (Sky, Slim, CM9/10, Embryo etc), except for stock Rogers ICS.

The agps patch and other gps patches on XDA didn't do anything.

When i first bought it, it had stock Rogers ICS and GPS worked perfectly, never mind the fact that i live in EU.

Then i tried custom roms and it started to funk around and has been doing as long as i run a custom rom.

Today i installed Rogers ICS as a last resort and suddenly the GPS locks in seconds and with great accuracy too (9 meters).

And so the question, what the hell is causing this?

OR

How do i make the GPS work with the custom roms?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rpr69:
I have been running custom ROM's since a day after I got my Skyrocket, and the AGPS patch has never failed to work for me. I have been running CM10 for pretty much the last 4+ months, and GPS always works. Not sure what your issue might be.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lingowistico:
I'm not sure either.. The phone is canadian with a Rogers brand on battery cover. When i install a stock AT&T rom the GPS more or less dies.

Any other rom and the GPS dies. Stock Rogers ICS rom and voila works like a clockwork.

And it doesn't react at all to any GPS patch, and i've tried like 10 different ones. aGPS is not new to me, i've successfully used it on other phones. But for some reason it doesn't do anything for my Skyrocket.

Thanks i'll try that, just don't see how Aroma is going to help if it's the same patch i've tried earlier.

On the other hand, with ghouly issues like this who knows what might help and what won't :P ?

Worst case scenario is that i'll be stuck with Rogers FW if i want working GPS, which is acceptable with some tweaks especially the Droid Razr M launcher :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jack_R1:
If SW doesn't solve/change anything - where might the problem be? Yes, that's right, it's probably in HW!

Check your GPS antenna contacts (antenna is inside the inner plastic, the one you see when you open back cover and remove the battery). Bend them a bit and clean their contact points to make sure they contact well.

If your phone is still within warranty or the above doesn't help - replace it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lingowistico:
Hi Jack_R1

Software does indeed solve everything. In short: stock rogers ics rom = perfect gps, custom rom/stock at&t rom= no gps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jack_R1:
Oops. Guess I skipped some lines reading the OP - returned and found your line talking about it. Sorry about that.

Did you try reinstalling custom ROMs after you got quick lock on stock ROM, to test that the issue remains?

I'd suggest a couple of things:

1. Try installing AT&T ICS ROM for testing. If it also gives you a good lock - you'll have better reference point.

2. Look at the APN you use in Rogers' ROM and in other ROMs. If you're using automatic ones - they might be different and include GPS-related stuff (type "supl").

3. Copy stock gps.conf from Rojers and try using it on custom ROMs.

4. Download FasterFix and try choosing different NTP pools.

5. Download GPS Status & Toolbox, see what exactly happens when you run it, describe here. What satellites are you seeing (numbers), how much time after running it, in which condition, etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lingowistico:
1 The AT&T roms didn't give me an adequate lock, until the JB updates were leaked & released.

2 I'm always using automatic APN's but they don't have any GPS info.

Haven't tried #3..

4 FasterFix didn't help.

5 GPS Status shows 4-7 satellites and only 2-3 locks with horrible accuracy. The thing is now i get perfect locks with any ROMs.. I could've disallowed Google Services to use GPS as I might've confused it with Google Search & Ads wanting my location.. :o

Thanks for your help :good:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Hi guys, i flashed my rom to an updated official version not to long ago. after the flash i noticed WiFi is taking up 20-25% of my battery usage. battery life from full to naught is just 6 hours without any use. there's two other higher battery consuming items but they are cell standby and phone idle each at 25++%, but i learnt from my local LG O4X forum that they are nothing to worry about.

I tried to search over the internet for solutions which brought up serveral answers like:

wifi.supplicant_set_scan_interval=300 in build.prop (i had to create this line because there wasn't any, and doesn't help my problem. Line Deleted.)

then i realise whether the above works depends on

config.xml from a folder that also doesn't exists on my phone, which probably means wifi.supplicant_set_scan_interval=300 doesn't work at all.

Then from somewhere i learnt of another file wpa_supplicant.config in system/etc/wifi/

Inside this config file lies a whole load of #'ed texts that descripts what each line does but one caught my attention which is

# AP scanning/selection
# By default, wpa_supplicant requests driver to perform AP scanning and then
# uses the scan results to select a suitable AP. Another alternative is to
# allow the driver to take care of AP scanning and selection and use
# wpa_supplicant just to process EAPOL frames based on IEEE 802.11 association
# information from the driver.
# 1: wpa_supplicant initiates scanning and AP selection
# 0: driver takes care of scanning, AP selection, and IEEE 802.11 association
# parameters (e.g., WPA IE generation); this mode can also be used with
# non-WPA drivers when using IEEE 802.1X mode; do not try to associate with
# APs (i.e., external program needs to control association). This mode must
# also be used when using wired Ethernet drivers.
# 2: like 0, but associate with APs using security policy and SSID (but not
# BSSID); this can be used, e.g., with ndiswrapper and NDIS drivers to
# enable operation with hidden SSIDs and optimized roaming; in this mode,
# the network blocks in the configuration file are tried one by one until
# the driver reports successful association; each network block should have
# explicit security policy (i.e., only one option in the lists) for
# key_mgmt, pairwise, group, proto variables
[B]ap_scan=2[/B]

this is my current setting.

After trying all these my WiFi seems to be still taking up too much battery and at the 'show processes overlay' i still see 'wpa_supplicant' running on and off with approx 5 seconds intervals in between.

My only worry is the methods i've tried are not applicable for ICS, which my phone is. On the link i've attached there's this newer wpa_supplicant_8 version for ICS. How to determine which version im on?

There seems to be more and more ways to troubleshoot as i look further and further, but im not really willing to risk venturing into unknown area without knowledge. Are there any other ways to fix my WiFi consumption issue? i need a fix desperately.

Just to remind people that with this plugin you get much much more, esspecialy for rom coockers and modders, but i'll name just few:

-build-in editor work great with adb-plugin (ideal for quick build.prop editing)

-setting permissions from TC file menu

-compare directories, even within zip files (no need for manual unpacking and repacking when coocking rom)

-compare files (ideal for looking errors, no matter is it decompiled framework.res or build.prop)

-background operations for those long or multiple transfering

-multiple tabs save time when switching between dirs

I am TC user from times he was Window Commander, and i must say: he who learn how to use it to full potencial, will hate to open even "My Computer" icon when it's even simple copy-paste operation.

With this adb plugin, my experience with android file managment have come to a totaly new level...

Backup & Restore via TC

Hi,

I am also a TC fan.

Have you ever used the Backup & Restore feature of ADB through TC? Please share your experiences. We can backup only the apps right? Can we make a system image of the phone? You know what I mean?

---------- Post added at 08:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 AM ----------

What does "Backup and Restore on ICS" mean? IceCream Sandwitch?
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] shut_down:
Hm, I never tried it. And it should be on IceCream Sandwitch. I check new version on its site, and it is still written ICS. I will try it when I get time.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] Bakisha:
When i tried backup option, it didn't work. But i'm on GB (i'll test it with ICS in the future).

For backups i use clockworkmod recovery, so that's why i don't use that option

If you want to backup apps, just copy /system/app or /data/app folder to other window in TC (and you can copy apk files to /system/app or /data/app - just make sure to give all apk files 644 permission)

Making system image of the phone, as you asked, can't be done so easily by just copy files to phone. It is not just files, but all files/folder have their permission value. Sinse there are hundreds folder/files to copy and set permissions individually, it is just not worth the time.

But if you have Clockworkmod or TeamWinRecoveryProject on your phone, making flashable zips is much easier.

I did manage to make flashable ROM this way by copying whole /system folder. Ofcorse, you can't just copy it back because of android/linux permission and symlink things - that's why custom ROMs come with updater-script who have commands to symlink busybox files and set permissions for files that needs them.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] Nishad1982:
I use TWRP for backups. I am just interested if TC can incorporate this functionality through ADB.

It would be a nice accomplishment.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] Bakisha:
I don't think TC adb plugin can handle CWM/TWRP backups. Or i am not aware of it...

Would be nice feature for sure...
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 General] mc_front:
Just to share my experience...

I found this thread because I was looking for a fast way to mirror my Nexus 5's storage without using the ADB shell to handle a single dir at a time. The MTP xfer is (a) slow and (b) fails to copy LOTS of stuff from the SD card (TiBu's backup directory, various app data folders that the apps have tried to protect, etc). I also wanted to get the CMWR partition backups off of the phone in case I bricked the thing while reinstalling a factory image.

I installed Total Commander and the ADB plugin, replaced all the plugin's binaries with the latest versions from the android SDK, and crossed my fingers. It works pretty well! I am getting about 5MB/s pulling from the phone. That's twice as fast as with MTP (plus I can pull from /data/media/) and three times as fast as using Root Explorer to copy to a mounted windows share via SMB (the only solution I'd found prior -- and still a decent solution if there's wifi but no USB available).

I still wish I knew a way to get some full-speed USB2/3 or WIFI file transfers happening.
