[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeXDeMoN:
Hi everyone!

I bought a used N4 off ebay and received it last week .. I have yet to get any sat locks. I read about aGPS not working with LTE and since I did the LTE mod. I decided to try the latest radio and I still dont get any locks *aGPS worked*. I went on a hour long drive yesterday and not once did I get a lock with the latest radio. I changed my NTP server to a US based one. I also tried several different kernels *including stock* each with a full wipe in between

Anyone have any ideas for me to try?

I was told the back was replaced so I wonder if that may be causing a issue? also have a issue with my wifi range that I'll make a separate thread for.

Thanks for at least reading!

Ebay listing said this "This phone has a replacement back glass WITHOUT wireless charging or NFC capabilities." which I dont really care about just want to be able to use gps :(, HTC ONE s and Sensation had awesome GPS maybe im just spoiled :(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kpjimmy:
Did you try another rom or even revert to stock to get off of LTE?

Edit: I am on LTE and I get sat locks without an issue. Maybe the you are missing the antennaes for gps as well?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeXDeMoN:
Going back to complete stock

I'll test the gps on my way home from work in a few minutes.

Hoping it will work.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeXDeMoN:
Using bone stock rom/kernel/ect. I was able to get a lock in at 10 meters in the parking lot but when I started driving it lost gps signal and then was like 120 meters *aGPS*.... so I'm going with my gps chip may be defective or the back that this guy used is interfering with the gps signal.

Also I noticed while running maps all the way home with GPS enabled/running it got real hot on the upper middle back of the phone , right next to the camera. Way hotter then it does if im playing games for a hour+

My regular phone reception is good though its probably a little stronger then my HTC One S.

Anyone have any ideas I should try?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Razer4925:
Hei bros, i have a problem, a big one, three days ago, my phone (android 4.2.2, gamerzrom v4, no custom kernels) was saying no signal, i did a research, reinsalled stock rom 2.3.6 via odin, but now my signal is very low, 1 or 2 bars from 4, and sometime i have no signal until i do a reboot, same problem with others roms. What can I do for a proper signal? :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compacity:
that problem occur to me when my device got a really high fever, 60-70 celcius usually from overworking while playing online games using 3g or hardmultitasking, cooling off would do da trick, or maybe ur network provider do got a problem on its signal
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Razer4925:
I stay in the capital of my country, and on streets i have only one bar or two, this happens even on stock 2.3.6.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soryuu:
Did you have good reception before you installed 4.2.2?

---------- Post added at 09:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 AM ----------

And also, which stock rom did you install? Because each stock rom is localised for different countries and therefore hve different modems suited tot those countries. If you installed a 2.3.6 that's different from your home country then that's probably why, because the modem is suited for that other country and not yours
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Razer4925:
On gamerzrom v4, four days ago i had full connection, but after i placed another sim, after reboot it was saying no signal... The stock 2.3.6 was working fine every tine i installed it...but now..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Razer4925:
I manage to find a modem for my country, but how i install it? It keep saying this error.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soryuu:
Is the modeom you downloaded a zip file?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Razer4925:
Yes, it's a zip inside a zip. I unzipped I9000XFJV7_I9000OXFJV1_CNX.zip, then in the folder was two files, jv7_jv1_jvq and SS_DLL.dll, and inside jv7_jv1_jvq( witch i didn't unziped) are that files(boot.bin, cache.rfs, modem.bin...)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soryuu:

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Proud2banoob:
It's here! I love the look and the feel. Great phone, but I have two questions. First, I thought as superuser you could transfer all the apps to the SD card. I tried, but there are a bunch on there I can't move. I am using BB9.

Second, I need to transfer my contacts from my old phone. I might be able to sync it with T-Mobile, but I just got off the phone with a rep (I did not mention that I am not running a stock UI) and apparently none of the contacts I synced with T-mobile.com are there.... Is there a way to send these? I'm not going to type 500 names individually.... I looked for an answer, but couldn't come up with one. If this question has already been answered (which I am sure it has), just post a link to the response.

Thank you for all your help
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Proud2banoob:
one problem solved

Looks like the difficulty moving contacts may be the SD card. For some reason, the Galaxy S is not writing the contacts to the SD card. I am going to try a different card, but I suspect the problem is with the phone, as apps store on the card just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Proud2banoob:

Restoring android backup take your phone exactly at the moment the backup was done. Rom, kernel, apps, data, everything.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vish91:
A Nandroid backup takes images of your partitions.

If you want to restore a previously made Nandroid backup, enter Recovery Mode select Restore. Everything should go back to how it was when you made the backup.

If you choose the ‘Advanced Restore’ option, you can select which component of the backup to restore – like the boot, system, data or cache.

Downloaded apps, apps and OS settings, contacts, messages are backed up in data (/data)

boot has the initrd.gz and zImage.

system has the system files (/system)

cache has the cache (/cache).

SD-ext has the ext partition
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] goateegauti:
Can't we push an apk to /system without having to root the device and mounting the system partition????

Found that there are some add ons available for SDK that doesn't need root.

P.S: Not for me, but my sisters phone. Shes pretty rough user and does not want to lose warranty.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] nit_in:
I never tried it but i think it is possible bcoz i pulled whole /system folder from unrooted mobile

Just make sure you have proper driver installed
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] goateegauti:
Pulling apps doesn't require root permissions but to push apps we need to change the system partition with RW access. I found somewhere on net that for nook HD and HD+ there are some plugins available for SDK through which they can modify system partition without the device being rooted. Is there any plugins available for other OEMS.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] nit_in:
I had pushed fonts to /system partition of an unrooted mobile

i just used adb and pushed the files

didn't need anything else

hope apps can also be pushed :fingers-crossed:
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MrKickstand:
Ok so i have two questions pertaining to PACrom.

For thew first one, is it just me or is the battery life on this rom not that great, i have had mine go from 100% to 76% in less than an hour and my screen on time was less than 15 mins, is there a way to correct this since even greenify or underclocking it doesnt even make a dent in it.

For question two, it might be a little noobish, but i came from sense and personally loved sense but for some reason every sense rom i flashed acted a little laggy and i love the smoothness of CM but i HATE the AOSP camera with a passion, is there any alternative camera apps that are almost or just as good as the sense camera and the panorama camera sense had?

Thank you in advance for helping me.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Mystic_Portal:
Is Google Services using a high amount of battery? That was my problem with the battery life in the rom. If so, delete the data for all the Google apps via settings>apps>all.

As for the camera, you can try Camera MX which has live effects like Sense but it runs slow on my phone. You should try out this awesome Sense rom
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] retardbatman:
So, these last few days I've been trying to achieve the functionality of the Sixaxis Controller touch emulation when connected by bluetooth, while using a Mini USB - Micro USB cable instead of bluetooth. I'm doing this because I want to control my computer via Splashtop Gamepad THD with the Dualshock 3 controller, worth mentioning is that it's an original version, not a knockoff. Bluetooth interferes with the WiFi to a level I consider unacceptable, lowering performance by 50-75%.

I've also tried it with USB/BT Joystick Center 8, bluetooth works fine, but wired doesn't even though the developer claims it's supported. The app finds the controller, but doesn't react to any buttons.

Do anyone of you know of a way to solve this?

I'm pretty much **** out of luck unless I get this working or find a USB WiFi stick and android drivers for the 5Ghz band, which I'm not having much luck with. So any help leading to one of these goals would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

You can add a small amount of a gelaskin or other sticker to the back of your one and then use that edge to balance on a credit card, turning it into a kickstand.

It sounds tenuous, yet works surprisingly well!

Here's a video showing the kickstand in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jE7yGR-ZXWw

Can't wait to try it when i have a gelaskin already on the back of the phone, should be even less conspicuous.

Is it ok to frequently switch between backed up nandroids? For example... switching between 2 different ROMS (CM10.1 and a TW Rom)?

Is this a totally safe practice?

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] eyecon82:
yes..that is the whole point of backups and restores

just make sure you wipe before it and not do dirty flashes
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Steveh8204:
Is that even if your backups are for ROMs both on different versions of Android?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] cruise350:
Make sure you back up the boot partition also since different versions of Android use different kernels. It would be wise to keep a zip file of the kernels on you sdcard so you can flash them easily if the phone doesn't boot up after a backup.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] AnteusFogg:
Search for "noobdev dual boot" on this forum. I believe it is a much more convenient solution than using backups and a lot of roms are supported

Did you give a shot to the dual boot I linked above?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Steveh8204:
I had a quick look at that useful link but was hoping to just try another Rom first as if I find a reliable one I'd probably stick to that.

The way my luck works, the more I tinker the more that goes wrong :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] AnteusFogg:
The great thing about the dual boot is that you can switch between roms in a matter of 2 minutes (install excluded)

Typically I use it so I have my daily driver and one or two roms I want to give a try. Once I am happy with one of the try-outs I upgrade the primary.

Bottom line is the dual boot is very easy to work with, doesn't require (although it can be preferable to have one once every now and then) backups and allow for easy flashing of new roms without affecting your daily driver.

It damn well looks like you could use such convenience because if your ready to do what you listed above then I'd say you're likely to want to try new roms fairly often :D

[Android General] pkb_always4u:
Things are more simpler than it seems to be.

I am going to share how I did it, in very simple way.

Things you will need :

PC with any wifi working (NEED NOT WIFI-DIRECT AT ALL

Any android mobile with hot-spot working. (Rooted for root directory)

ES-File manager (Free)

Main reason to write this tutorial is for broadband users of PC, not having wifi-direct card, and no use of any wireless router or LAN or any fancy device.

I will tell you my short story, I am a usb-modem user with 2g/3g net with very limited data connection. Also cant buy wifi routers just to put my mobile n PC on "same network" criterion. USB was a pain and also very limited to just SD-card, and no root access via USB. So I took this mess and did my all to settle it as I need rather than fancy drivers and devices.

Enough of spoilers, lets start :

Mobile side settings :

Install ES-File manager. Goto windows->default->check remote manager​

Back to Home-screen and swipe to remote manager page, It will say no connection detected (its ok)​

Click on turn on wifi to enter in wifi settings and start hot-spot (or you can do it first)​

It will show an ftp address like "ftp://197.0.0.1:3721/", NOTE IT DOWN​

Pc side settings

Search for the just created Wifi-Hotspot and connect to it​

Now 2 ways to connect to mobile : 1. Open windows explorer, directly write the ftp address as it is and voila you see your mobiles directory there.

2. Open windows explorer->right click on my computer->Add a network location->Next->write the ftp address->(<give a name>)->finish​

Boom, it will show as network mapped folder, click on it goes to your mobile.​

THINGS TO REMEMBER :

IF YOU NEED TO ACCESS THE ROOT FOLDER OF YOUR MOBILE, SET THE PATH IN REMOTE MANAGER'S SETTING OPTION (SET ROOT DIRECTORY)

Any problem you tell me.

Sorry for my English.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Kraizk:
From the sounds of it you should never buy a U.S. based phone again. The only way you will get these updates before U.S. carriers through official means is with an international variant. Yeah you can probably find hacked up versions that allow the update early but those usually come with their fair share of issues and most people end up still wiping and placing official updates on anyways when they finally come out. If you for some reason ever thought CDMA would get updates early you are far from knowledgeable about how this stuff works. That said, of the U.S. Carriers Sprint has the best record of updating first. Thank you for another useless rant post showing people what little you know of the smart phone ecosystem.
