[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quarvin:
Hi,

I have some problems with finding my location, and I think it started since the 4.3 update, but I'm not sure.

I see it mostly with Tasker. I have some profiles for different locations (like home and college..) triggered by "net" without GPS, that is ment to turn Wifi on and off.

I noticed today

when I left college

, I opened the screen on the way home and I saw for a brief moment that the WiFi is still ON and my "college" profile was still activated, and immediately after that, the profile went off and also the WiFi. The Net location only triggered when I opened the screen, and it seems it thought my location was still in college until I did so.

When I got home

, I opened the screen to see if it activated my "home" profile and turned on the WiFi, and nope, nada, even when opened the screen it still didn't know my location, only after I turned on the WiFi manually it knew where I am and activated the "home" profile (which in that case was already pointless)..

My guess is that on the way back from college it found my location when I opened the screen cause the WiFi was still on, and when I came back home the WiFi was off so it didn't find my location without it.

But if that's the case, then there is simply no point in those "wifi on / off" profiles if it can only find my location with WiFi.

I posted a similar thread on Tasker support group, but honestly I think it's a problem with the google's new location services.

What's that point? now we can get a

good location fix only with WiFi or GPS

?

and also why I

must turn on the screen

to "refresh" the location? isn't "net location" works on the 3g network? which is always on, so what's the problem.

By the way these network delays doesn't only happen with location, it

happens alot with messaging apps

, that sometimes I get the messages only when I turn on the screen. Is there a fix for that?

Sorry for throwing out so many questions without order :eek:

Thanks in advanced

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] counterfear1014:
Hello XDAers, I tried searching for this question all over XDA but found none with a relevant answer so had to post this :(

The problem is while gaming, the CPU automatically throttles down to 800 MHz, Even if the phone is not that heated up. Now I acknowledge that sammy based roms and stock kernels have the throttling as a safety feature, so I flashed the latest custom Siyah kernel, and also tried wiping and flashing AOKP Jellybean 4.2.2 Rom, then all over again installed Modern Combat 4 and monitored the CPU frequency with ROM toolbox, But again the same 800 MHz throttle occured. So I concluded that it is the kernel's responsibility for CPU/GPU throttle. Now switched back to sammy JB Rom with previous Siyah kernel.

Is there Any manual way of disabling this feature? Like editing a system file or something? It is really annoying and I could not find a really helpful answer so far :(

ROM - Stock Samsung odexed Jellybean 4.1.2 XXLS8

Kernel - Siyah v6.05b
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] saquib:
I've upgraded to the latest 1.11 ROM, I now want to revert back to the original ROM (T-mobile UK).

I took a back-up of the rom onto the SD card, and backed up using ntrw.

However, writing the back-up file back to the SD works, but, the device will not boot from the sd card. I do the following:

- disable USB activesynch

- insert usb cable

- press camera/power and reset

- goes into boot loader, and says USB.

Does not prompt to install rom from sd card.

I've tried it without the usb plugged in, the screen says Serial and does not prompt for rom installation.

Same problem if I use the downloaded tmobile.nb1 from the ftp site.

What am I doing wrong? Is there any other way of reverting back?

If you are returning the phone for warranty purposes please ignore the following:

Why on earth would you want to go back?

If you want all the t-mobile customisations, why not just install the bigstorage and load up the t-mobile extended rom.

You guessed right - I want to return.

Any ideas on why it will not boot the rom of the sd?

Okay, I am practically a beginner with this. Also, I did my flashing/rooting a month back, so I might muddle some of the facts.

The thing is, at first I had this problem : Thread

So, in the end, I remember re-flashing it to DDLF2 and then doing the XXKPE + XXKPQ + BAM Kernel + CWM 10.1.

But there is a SOD. After a while, it suddenly switches off.

Can anyone tell me what to do, to solve this problem and if someone has patience, please help me step by step? In the end, I want to have a JB custom rom in my phone. I just want to get there, without having any problems.

Any help please, removing this SOD?

Do you mean the same process I used? DDLF2 -> XXKPE + XXKPQ -> BAM Kernel + CWM 10.1

Or am I missing something or adding something in the mix, which I shouldn't?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Deleted member 4866800:
Why Do You Got To XXKPE From DDLF2 ,All I Was Trying To Say Was

XXKPE--->DDMF1--->CF-Root or Custom Kernels--->CM10.1 or Any Other Rom.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] tyson123g:
Thanks, the above way helped.

I installed using the process you mentioned, installing the CF Root for DDMF1 and then finally installing REMICS latest one (5.x).

But it is still a bit slow. So, I was thinking of overclocking it.

Can you tell me, which kernel should I flash?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ASMI1:
REMICS v6 now is out (smoother and more stable);)

kernel 3.0.8 by dhiru1602 does not support OC but you can change the governor to ondemand or performance (performance>>processor>>CPU governor) and the I/O scheduler to deadline (performance>>I/O scheduler) but first you have to enable the developper options (7 hits on the Build number).

Hit thanks "button" if i helped you!

regards:)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] tyson123g:
Thanks for the suggestion, but I think I am missing something here.

I tried searching for the kernel, but I just can't seem to find it.

Am I doing something wrong?

Edit : Okay, so I searched and found out that most of the newer ROMs have it installed in itself, is that right?

But when I installed the REMICS 5.8 and tried using the no frills CPU app, I just don't see any option beyond 1 GHz.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ASMI1:
Yes, because as i know kernel 3.0.8 by dhiru1602 which is the default (preinstalled) kernel of CM10.1 (Jelly bean 4.2.2) (REMICS 5.x and 6 and the newer jelly bean roms are based on CM10.1 by dhiru1602) does not support OC and you won't find other kernel for CM10.1 better than dhiru1602 kernel (it's only my idea:D).

I think dhiru1602 didn't implement OC in his kernel for reasons of stability and battery backup...and you don't have to use no frills CPU app anymore, just 7 hits on the Build number (About the phone >> Build number) will enable the "developper options" and "performance" (in "performance" you can change the CPU governor and I/O scheduler).

And don't use REMICS 5.8, REMICS 6 is better because many bugs were fixed!!!

Hit thanks "button" if i helped you!

regards:)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] tyson123g:
Thanks for the reply.

Just had one little question..

Even in the performance options, as the same in the no CPU app, my maximum frequency is always 1000 MHz?

Is it always like that, or should I go beyond it as well? I thought I was overclocking so I expected an option beyond it..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] mustafahussain:
in CM10.1 kernel overclocking is not there for some stability issues... overclocking is possible but do it at your own risk
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ASMI1:
You really don't need to OC your CPU....if you are facing some lags in CM, this maybe because you didn't wipe data before install CM.

Usually I downclock my cpu to 600MHz and set the governor to conservative to save battery without facing lags...so really CM10.1 A8 is not lagging!!!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] tyson123g:
Okay. I have to install REMICS 6 anyway. I will try again. Hopefully this time, it is quick.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] tyson123g:
Well, I changed my mind and went with CM 10.1 A8. It is fast and good.

But for some reason, my phone is rebooting by itself.

[Security Discussion] fadedout:
With most app categories, there are far too many too choose from, and a number of great options. Unfortunately with these apps you'll probably have to try a number of them before finding one with sufficient features and usability.

I had problems with Cryptonite but YMMV. Others to check out include Encdroid / Encdroid Multi-Cloud and LUKS Manager.

Encdroid Multi-Cloud integrates directly with FTP, Windows Share (SAMBA), Dropbox, Box.net, SSH/SFTP, and Webdav. If it works out for you, it would probably eliminate the need for FolderSync.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] mattross:
I have looked through various posts on this topic from the search but not found any conclusive answers.

When I am connected via Wi-Fi I cannot set any proxy servers. Particularly I'm interested in HTTP proxying. If I browse Internet Explorer to a print environment variables CGI script I can see it's not using the proxy I have set in my 'Work' connection. What I'm a bit confused about is whether 'Work' is the correct place to put it as it has no modem connections listed there [only non-Wi-Fi options are listed such as Bluetooth and irDA].

Is this the correct place to put the proxies? If so why is my MDAIII [WM2003SE] ignoring them?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] TheGadgetGuy:
If this proxy server is in your work environment, you can set it up in 'work' in Connections.

You also have to set the phone up to use 'work' for internet addresses, as well as work-related (intrAnet) addresses. Otherwise, all external addresses will bypass your 'Work' settings.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] mattross:
When U say I have to set up 'work' for internet addresses what do U mean? I am connected via Wi-Fi at the moment at work and I have the proxies configured, yet I still go directly to websites in Internet Explorer without touching the HTTP proxy.

In my 'Work' network I have no modems defined. In 'My ISP' I have both GPRS and WAP setup for T-Mobile UK. My connection rules say use 'My ISP' for internet addresses, and 'Work' for private work addresses. If I change internet addresses to 'Work' as well it still ignores my proxies. I have not yet found a combination that works.

Edit:

Sorry I just realised that even though I have nothing listed in my intranet address list the MDAIII has guessed my local cgi environment script is on my intranet and has bypassed my proxy. When I use a remote cgi script out there in the wilderness it successfully reports the proxy IP instead of the MDAIII one.

"Process com.android.gallery3d has closed"

I get this error when attempting to edit any photo that I had in my external SD card on latest Paranoid Android.

_Device Information_

Model number : SGH-T999

Android Version : 4.2.2

BaseBand Version : T999UVDLJC

Kernel Version : 3.4.53-cyanogenmod-gf537623

Paranoid Android : 3.69

Build # : pa_d2tmo-userdebug 4.2.2 JDQ39​

I have tried reflashing the rom, factory wiping, system wiping, cache wiping, d.cache wiping, internal storage wiping, etc.

The only thing I have not done is wipe the external SD because I don't actually want to lose any information; I'd be willing to do just that if that were to fix it, but I want to know why.

So, has anyone had any success with figuring this out in the past?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xander45:
sounds like contacts are on the phone side are damaged or the micro usb port is damaged.

Have you plugged into to a pc just to see if it can "see" the device and connect?

You stated it cannot connect to a pc, so i would suspect you have a bad micro usb port.

if you can connect, its not the port, and try taking an eraser and gently swabbing the contacts on the phone side.

also, make sure when you insert the battery there is an actual contact established. sometimes when pulling/pushing the battery in and out, those contacts sink further into the device and finally when you insert a batter the contact is very poor. you may need a tool or tweezer to just VERY, VERY GENTLY raise the contacts if they sunk in to far......but be careful not to pull too hard/much they can snap and you will probably void any warranty......
