[HTC One X+] devtherockstar:
Hi,

I bought my HOX+ inter device in June and within a month I had screen flicker issues. The screen would flicker around the edges and would become very prominent especially at more than 50% brightness and with lighter colours. The device was never rooted and so never had a custom ROM installed. HTC support suggested that I run the phone in safe mode, restore to factory settings and if that did not work take it to a repair center. I tried the first two options but as that did not work I took the device to a HTC repair center and after checking the device for a week they were kind enough to give me a replacement for which I was very grateful. The funny part is that the replacement set had exactly the same issue! I had just received the set and was on the way out of the store when I noticed the issue again. So now I've left it with them to see what can be done about it.

I have read that this very problem was an issue with the HTC one x but so far not so widespread with the HTC one x+. I have also read two or three guys mention this problem in the second thread in this sub-forum but they have not received any replies yet. I would like to ask if anybody else has faced similar issues and whether there are any permanent fixes. Thanks!

Update: I received the replacement HTC one x+ this evening and guess what, the flicker issue is present on this one too. The guy in the shop asked me to use the device till Monday as tomorrow being a Sunday its not a business day. Said he'll get me a refund on Monday. And since I haven't as of yet heard from any forum members how to resolve this issue, I guess that's exactly what I will do and even recommend to other people not to get HTC products in the future. One device may be faulty but three in a row surely means that the company is going downhill!

I have been trying to root my gionee ctrl v1 and tried almost every s/w and finally succeeded with the s/w DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su but now i am having a problem that when i check with root checker it says your device is not rooted but when i tried rooting it again with superoneclick it says that its already rooted. So, i am confused now :confused:

Also i am still not able to remove any bloatware (which was actually the main reason i wanted to root), i've tried rootuninstaller, no bloat, titanium backup etc.

Any kind of help would be appreciated...

Hi

I just bought a samsung bkc 1B1 bluetooth keyboard, and I'm trying to use it with my galaxy tab 2 10.1 (p5110) with Cyanogenmod 10.1.1.

My problem is that is recognized as QWERTY keyboard, which it's not. So I decide to write a custom keylayout for the keyboard. First I searched for the vendor and product id :

$ : cat /proc/bus/input/devices

I : Bus=0005 Vendor=04e8 Product=7021 Version=0001
N : Name="Broadcom Bluetooth HID"
P : Phys=
S : Sysfs=/devices/virtual/misc/uhid/input9
U : Uniq=
H : Handler=sysrq kbd event8
B : PROP=0
B : EV=2001b
B : KEY=1f 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 10000 0 0 0 10013 2000007 ff9f307a c9405fff febeffdf ffafffff ffffffff fffffffe
B : ABS=f00 0
B : MSC=10
B : LED=1f

I duplicated Generic.kl and rename the copy "Vendor_04e8_Product_7021.kl". I tried to change a letter, but it seems the modification has not been taken into count even after a reboot.

I also tried "Vendor_04e8_Product_7021_Version_0001.kl" and "Broadcom Bluetooth HID.kl" but none of them seems to work.as well.

Is that normal ? How can I fix it ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donaldta:
Try using "BroadcomBluetoothHID.kl" or "Broadcom_Bluetooth_HID.kl" instead.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hackel:
Any update? Did you ever get this working? I'm experiencing the same issue. logcat shows that it never touches my custom kl file and just uses the Generic.kl. I can modify that file and my changes work fine, but that's obviously not the right solution. I'm working with a Nexus 7 stock Android 4.4.2 ROM. According to the documentation, this should work!

I'm from Poland and in our country, in order to send the phone to service for repair, you must have STOCK ROM without Recovery (CWM/TWRP).

Now I have ROM with unlocked new (ICS) bootloader and I must flash STOCK Froyo V10, but I don't now

how to restore old bootloader

.

I only found: "Flash Stock GB Rom. And you will get the old Bootloader back", but flash with what? NVflash? LG Update Tool? Smartflash?

I found "2x-v10b-1300166062" for nvflash and "V10A_00.kdz" for LG Update Tool.

What should I do? I don't wanna transform my LG 2X into brick.

[Sorry for my English. Google Translate helped me :cyclops: ]
[LG Optimus 2x] wulsic:
use lg update tool with that you can just flash the kdz file and if you brick it you can always unbrick it using nvflash:fingers-crossed:

I've got the JWR66Y update.

The day after the GPS was working OK. I turned my Galaxy Nexux off and on and since then the GPS can't lock anymore.

I did more restarts, turned the GPS and location off and on, and downloaded GPS Status app and reset the GPS data.

Nothing helped.

I have a stock 4.3 with the new JWR66Y.

I recommend not applying this update until google fix this issue

No, so it is not a solar or other location problem.

Google said the update supposed to fix a GPS issue with the new Nexus 7 so I guess these something related to GPS with this update

I installed the update yesterday and GPS didn't lock after that. I had an issue mentioned in another thread that build number didn't change after update. I think it was because of root/custom recovery. So I used factory image to reflash. After that I got GPS lock, but it took some time. I'll test again today.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adek:
I can confirm this issue. After upgrading to JWR66Y GPS is not getting fix.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jorenko:
I am having the same problem, and I am 100% stock. I have a nexus 7 which also got the update and can get a lock with it instantly but no lock ever with the Gnex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] icilymoo:
same issue…but seems i found a way how to fix it just now…

first…google added a couple ntp server in the gps.conf after OTA there's day……i remove them all becuase i'm live in china,the ntp server are all in U.S.…it's difficult to access them behind GFW…after do this, my gn search gps became fast!

second…disable "wifi & mobile network location " in setting-〉location accesses……

after do this all…my GN can lock the gps satellite ……locate the postion in google maps and all the gps apps…:o

but this issue is still a problem with google…hope they can fix it next upgrade…
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flixos:
No issues here after the update, GPS working as usual.

PS: Sygic works fine, but i've not tested it for a while. I will do later.

PS2: it seems that it doesn´t work for me either...good work Google
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Judge584:
Flixos: Try to reboot your gnex and then launch maps again. Is it still working?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thegios:
dame here: no GPS lock after upgrade
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jorenko:
I played around with this some more today. I got the GPS Status app, and it showed 0/0 satellites. After completely disabling Wifi and pressing both the reset and get Xtra data buttons, it quickly went up to 0/8, then slowly to 0/12. After about 1-2 minutes, it showed a lock with 4/12. App switching into Maps lost my lock. It wasn't regained after about 2 minutes in maps. I went back to GPS Status and repeated the reset process and again got lock in a little over a minute. Still, switching to maps loses it.

But the real reason I wanted GPS so badly was my run tracking app, which actually keeps GPS open in the background. It, like maps, couldn't lock by itself. But by switching to GPS status and resetting I got my lock. Then, I was able to keep it and get good lock for about 25 minutes. After that it crapped out again, and no resetting would fix it. Around 5 minutes later, I was able to reset it and get lock back.

So it seems that any time your phone turns off GPS, even for a second, you need to completely reset it to get it back. And the lock is still a little fragile, even then.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stokholm:
I think this has nothing to do with the JRW66Y update. Lots of people (including myself) are having the same problem with JRW66V. Something it wrong (since yesterday or the day before) and it just happen to coincide with the Y-update.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] moisesgl:
No gps issues here but i had trouble updating to the latest OTA, it seemed like supersu might had something to do with it and users with superuser where reporting no issues updating so maybe that has something to do with it?

Also, I am in mexico so maybe that has something to do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hgmichna:
Best way to update is to first unroot completely, using the unroot/uninstall function in SuperSU. Then the update should go through. Finally, re-root, perhaps better with Superuser by ClockworkMod. To do that, just flash http://download.clockworkmod.com/superuser/superuser.zip .

But I am pretty sure that this has nothing to do with the GPS problem, apart from the fact that before following the above procedure you may have an incomplete OTA installation.

---------- Post added 26th August 2013 at 12:01 AM ---------- Previous post was 25th August 2013 at 11:38 PM ----------

This makes little sense, as the setting should only have an effect when Wi-Fi is explicitly disabled.

But who knows? Everything is possible.

I would recommend to leave the GPS enabled for a longer time, like 20 min, out in the open, to see whether it eventually locks on to the satellites. If it does, then the Internet AGPS data delivery may be broken, but the GPS should work fine, once it has a fix. I cannot test this, as the GPS in my Galaxy Nexus works just fine with the JWR66Y build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gokpog:
Correct. This problem with Googles location service occured at least once or twice before. And like before it was fixed pretty quickly. You can enable "Wifi & Mobile Network Location" again.

10 h ago I couldn't get a GPS lock but I tested it again 2 h ago and got a fix in seconds.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davionlip:
When I disabled "scanning available" in the wifi section, the GPS stabilises.

Weird.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hgmichna:
It may get weirder still if you re-enable that setting, because the GPS will likely keep working just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] davionlip:
Nah. It got worse after the next day. Had to disable it and reboot my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daniel_loft:
Looks like this problem is somehow related to Android 4.3.

I'm running CyanogenMod and, after going to CM10.2 (via nightlies) I noticed the GPS problem. Two days ago I went back to CM10.1.2 (Android 4.2.2), everything worked like a charm.

During this, I also noticed that my wife's Galaxy S3 running stock 4.1.2 is locking to GPS waaaay faster (5-8 sats in maximum 10s from a opened window), whereas my Nexus, after going back to CM10.1, works about a minute to lock to 3-5 sattelites in opened space.

Have a nice day!

- Disable Scanning always available

- Disable Wifi & mobile network location

- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=45051288#post45051288

- FasterGPS

- Reset and download AGPS data with GPS Status

First noticed this when Waze stopped working.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] erups:
I kind of noticed lately that GMaps and GPS Status seem to tap into different location services.

After the GPS problem, Maps was slow and sluggish but still faster and more accurate than GPS Status.

GPS Status would seldom get a fix.

Also I never understood why, supposedly, AGPS data wasn't updated automatically by Android: what's the point in having it if you never update it?

So what this boils down to is that I don't thrust GPS Status a lot these days.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zg1603h:
i think "broken" AGPS is my issue.

for instance i open GPS TEST app and i got 8 to 10 sats in view but no lock for 15min or so, then when i go to settings and hit "clear AGPS" followed by "update AGPS" as soon as i get back to the app i get a lock in under 5sec, and GPS is working like a charm in any app i use after this little procedure. GPS continues to work like it should until i wipe cache and dalvik cache ie. flash a new kernel, but clearing AGPS makes things go back to "normal".

Have you tried rebooting after doing the above then enabling the WiFi & mobile network location only.
