this forum is full of ...

best NTP server is the one CLOSEST to You, and for xtra data - better is official source, sorry

you got some random shenanigans mostly doubleing sytem settings or reffering to ones not working on i9000 - this shows lack of knowldge

INTERMEDIATE_POS and ACCURACY_THRES ends up in geetting 'partial' greatly INACURATE fix then slowly making it better - that is not faster fix - same goes to few other settings - dont tell me thats the idea, get 300m or more fix with partial data and then making it better - at the end normal settings will get the fix in the same moment as stock ommit those errorous and incurate data you want to get into consideration

long story short - when promoting something one call FIX do some research first - start from basics: learning how gps works on android and paricullar device

imho there is no better way than the google way - remember nexus s and i9000 main boards are the same (-nfc -led +sdcard)

edit: you surely know that when data connection of agps will be downloaded if wifi is enabled and in range

also agps is not needed for fix, it speeds it up a bit but if youre in location with satelites visible you will get a fast fix anyways

as long as your GT-I9000 got no problems with antena connection (after fixing that guys get fix indoors so...)

dont waste more of my time, thanks

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ADB100:
With the unofficial CyanogenMod 10.1 releases now fairly well established and Android 4.2.2 quite stable on our DHD's is it possible to update the google apps .zip to include the current google apps. The gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip file contains older google core apps that each time I flash my custom cyanogenmod 10.1 ROM they need to get updated from the Play store.

Is it possible to include the current google apps in the original ROM or is it possible to create a custom google apps .zip with the current apps? Has anyone already done it? Just interested as each time I flash a new ROM I have to go through an extra step whilst the older google apps get updated - not a huge issue but if it can be avoided?

Andy
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MusikMonk:
Not the correct section for a thread of this type. But in answer to your questions:

Bundling GApps with the ROM breaks licensing laws, so that's not a valid option. I know that some ROMs do it, but they risk legal action, and they only get away with it because of their limited visibility. ROMs like CM or AOKP would probably get in trouble in no time. As a matter of fact in the early days of CM these apps were included by default and the developer received a cease and desist because of it. And that's when GApps zips started appearing.

To avoid waiting for the flashed GApps to update, you could look around for bundles created by other people. Not just the ones that can be found on http://goo.im/gapps. For example: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2012857
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dude360:
You can just take your existing gapps zip, pull the updated versions from your phone, rename and replace in the zip :)

You could also, if you wanted to, merge both the ROM zip and Gapps zip together.

Ive never had an issue with that but, of course, YMMV...

Yup. I take the normal Gapps package, replace with updated apps and GMS and add the other Gapps I use such as Earth.

I then have another Gapps zip with the other apps such as G+ etc that I dont use that often but can quickly flash if need be.

Gapps zips are quite versatile. As long as you use the original package which contains all the framework for them to run and other bits n bobs, you can chop and change what you want.

I replace Gmail and PhoneSky with inverted versions etc

I have a wired headset, Sony EX300AP, supplied with my Xperia Z, and a couple of bluetooth hands free units.

When I do a 2 second press on the wired headset's button it connects to google voice search which works well in command mode and as a search tool.

I have disabled the totally useless "Voice Dialer 4.1.2 Avt3rw" , this being the app which was launched by a 2 second press on a BT MFB.

Now a 2 second press launches a crippled google microphone, which only responds to the call command (but it works well as a dialer).

Is there some way to launch google voice search proper when pressing the MFB on a BT device?

I attached a gps config file. It fixes my gps in just 2seconds!! it works very very well !!! Also a device using this awesome patch will lock onto 7 - 11 satellite !!!!

Just flash it. Also you can unzip it and copy gps.conf file located in the system folder of the ZIP file into /etc/ of the system folder of your phone using root explorer (rw-r--r-- permission) and then reboot.

Notice: Make a backup of your current gps.conf file before replacing.

Hello all,

I would like to have a question about flashing odex and deoxdex ROMs.

If I have flashed a odex ROM eg. Doom's JB 200 pre-rooted ROM, then flash a deodexed Rom on top of it without wipping.

What will my system be?

If it become deodexed, will there any odex files I need to remove manually?

Or it is probably not working by using this method?

Wanna find a way to deodex the existing ROM with the less effort.

Thanks
[HTC Desire X] kkeyte:
Hi, I'm on the standard HTC software, so no rooting, no custom ROMs, etc.

In the most recent update (a few weeks ago), the device was taken from (I think) Android 4.0.4 to 4.1.2, so from ICS to JB. However, in doing that, the ability to access the SD card via USB mass-storage seems to have vanished and has been replaced with MTP. This means that I can no longer access the filesystem on the SD card via USB, which I do with Picasa, DoubleTwist, as well as the audio system in my car.

HTC tell me to install the (rather useless and bloated) HTC Sync Manager, but this doesn't give me what I need. They say there is no way to go BACK to the previous version of the OS.

So, my wise friends, I'm asking if anyone has any idea as to how to solve this problem and again get back to being able to see the SD card as a USB mass-storage device.

Many thanks for your help.
[HTC Desire X] HUNGERcube:

[HTC Desire X] kkeyte:
Possibly that can work, but it's not going to help me in the car! I need the SD card filesystem to be visible, as it was before.
[HTC Desire X] dansou901:
The thing is, that HTC removed UMS completely on JB in favor of MTP. MTP allows you to connect your device to a PC without the need to unmount before removing as it uses push / pull commands directly. So if your device in the car supports MTP, you are good to go. Otherwise, you can try to connect it via 3,5 mm audio clinch cable if your car radio has an auxialiary port for that.
[HTC Desire X] realCyphox:
well, theoretically you CAN go back to ICS, but you have to unlock your bootloader (might be a problem when it comes to warranty), flash a custom-recovery (for jellybean hboot 1.25) and flash a custom- or stock-rom based on ics.

i recommend ckpv5's myONEdx RC4.0 FX+, imho its the best and most bug-free ics custom-rom.

[Motorola Droid 4] IncoherentDrudge:
I'm new to this forum, and am in dire hopes that a workaround can be resolved for my issue. I've read a lot of posts here, and I've found people definitely know what they are doing here.

I have an XT894 (So I believe this is the right place).

I had this issue before, and I just ended up replacing the battery for a quick fix. The fact that it happened a second time makes me want to have a possible understanding of what I did, and if there's a workaround that doesn't involve me shelling out another 50$ for a new battery.

This is what had happened in the chain of events leading to this (Starting from JB Upgrade):

1) Rooted, and installed a generic Cyanogen mod on my original droid 4 (with Safestrap)

2) Randomly bricked, tried to take out battery without realizing that there were screws holding the flex cable in place.

3) Leaving incriminations out, I attained a second one.

4) Rooted it again using windows utility, and installed Liquidsmooth (Safestrap again)

5) Had the issue again, and bought a factory cable from a vendor in China. Was having a pile of driver issues throughout all this (got a new usb data cable, and used a specific port in the back of my pc that it liked.)

6) Factory cable booted it was able to get it back to normal while it was plugged in. Then swapped the battery the right way, used RSDLite, flashed Stock Rom, and got it working. Several times I've had to reflash.

7) Rooted again, safestrap, then flashed Liquidsmooth again. I had to reflash a few times with safestrap. I am using Rom slot 3 also.

Yesterday I decided to upgrade to the latest version of Liquidsmooth. I did not uninstall the operating system before flashing, and I'm pretty sure I completely ignored the fact the battery was under 1/4th charge.

So aside from all that, this is where I stand:

When using a standard data cable in the favored USB port of my PC, the screen stays blank, but a little green light appears in upper-left corner of the droid.

When using the factory cable in that port it boots, but will not charge. I was able to use AP Fastboot to reflash stock this way. I tried flashing the stock JB ROM with RSDLite initially, and it had an error on stage 6. But I was able to get it using the Windows Utility.

Now the issue is when plugged in the power charger it shows the Motorola logo, disappears, then again non-stop in an endless loop.

I have another charger coming on the way from Amazon (one usb, and one wall one), so that's going to be my next step.

If anyone has any little hidden secret or suggestion that will fix this problem that I am not aware of, please please by all means throw it out there! I would be eternally grateful.

the charge mode is software controlled, if the rom is not correct, battery will not charge

[Motorola Droid 4] IncoherentDrudge:
Same issue still

I did the following:

Used RSD Lite, had a successful flash this time using 4.1.2_2.

Took it off factory cable (which always immediately powers off on removal, is this normal?)

Tried booting it off power, no go.

Plugged it into the charger, same issue.

Tried factory reset, couldn't get it passed the Android Andy.

After that, I tried flashing the 4.1.2_1 xml.

Had a successful flash.

Tried to get in recovery, and held both volume buttons. Didn't work.

Then I went into security settings and did a full wipe. Still didn't change anything.

Flashed same rom again, and then was able to get passed Android Andy by holding both volume buttons unlike last time where it was unresponsive.

I wiped the cache, and chose factory reset.

Powered it up again, and still had the same issue.

To clarify a bit on the factory cable: I've used it on 2 separate xt894s. Both devices always powered off on removal even on ones that were working fine. As I asked above: is that normal?

To recap again: it's showing the red circle with the M when plugged into the adapter. Then the screen goes blank. Then while the droid is in the charger, and I tap the power it up again it shows that, goes blank, and again in a non-stop loop. I've also tried holding the top button down as well with no different results.

The battery feels cold (I have air conditioning on), and when it's not plugged into anything the phone pretty much acts as if it is bricked. No red flashing light is shown on charger either, in fact no LED is lit up at all. The red blinking LED only shows on factory cable. I've tried two separate outlets in the room I'm currently in which power up other devices, and that's a no go.

The last time I bricked this phone didn't have that charger. Instead it had a USB charger with the adapter (was the default Verizon one). That one had the same results as the USB data cable I'm using now (a green light that did not flash). I had the battery completely removed, and the factory cable did the same thing as it's doing now.

Also around the time that this happened in Liquidsmooth, the icon showed that the power was charging (but the battery kept getting lower which makes me feel skeptical). Several days ago I left it in the charger for roughly two days as well.

I only have charged this phone with this current AC charger after the brick (I would link it, but the forum claims I don't have 10 posts). It does state that it is legitimately for XT894.

I'm going to leave it in that one for a few hours, and see if anything different happens. I never was able to get the M logo last time which is the big difference.

I ordered a second factory cable just to see what happens then.

Anyhow, does this seem more like a dead battery after my results, or is there another option I can try software wise? Or am I doing something incorrectly?
