The middle LED just tells you if you are getting a good satellite lock. If it stays steady then you are not getting enough satellite signal for a lock. There is a program on the CD that can tell you the satellite signal strength. Most nav programs have that feature as well.

I've been playing with mine for a few days and I am amazed by how fast it can lock onto satellite signal. If you compare with other non-SirfIII chipped GPS the difference is almost night and day.

I did have some BT/COM port issue if I run an alternate nav program. It wouldn't connect BT anymore until I rediscover it. But staying with one program (iGuidance) it works perfectly.

I had this problem too. If I ran up the GPSInfo program, then TomTom would fail to find the GPS Receiver.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skampflens:
Hi,

my Nexus 7 (2013) is stuck on Google screen...

a few days ago I downloaded a lot of movies via utorrent, and utorrent kept crashing. So i forced stop, removed the app, reinstalled it from google play and continued.

My nexys then suddenly freezed for about 1-2mins before i shut it down via the power buttom, and since then it wont start...I've tried almost everything.

The device is stuck on Google screen. I've tried to boot it through the bootloader, recovery mode etc, but it's still stuck on the google screen. downloaded the nexus root toolkit to unlock my device, but it keeps tellin me i've to enable USB debugging. which I can't since my device won't start.

I've downloaded the SkipSoft Android tookit, but not too familiar with the tookit so haven't really tried anything yet (also not sure which android version i'm running)..

Is there ANYTHING i can do?

EDIT: tried using skipsoft android tookit to unlock bootloader, but when coming to the stage where i've to chose yes or no, the device get stuck and the power button does not respond => I can't chose Yes..

EDIT: So I've tried a few things but nothing seems to work..

downloaded a new adb+fastboot directory from another thread. Fastboot commands seems to work, but when i try and erase boot/cache etc the cmd does nothing...had this line for about 10min:

erasing 'boot'..

nothing happens.. when i unplug my device an error message shows (too many links).

so, fastboot won't erase my boot nor my cache, so i tried to fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img, and it says my bootloader is locked.

fastboot oem lock --> bootloader is alrdy locked

fastboot oem unlock --> stuck at "YES", just as i was when trying with different toolkits.

fastboot -w update image-razor --> Error, failed to load 'img-razor'

soo i'm getting kinda desperate here...

remeber, this was all from a stock rom, no root, no custom rom, just from a freeze when dl movies from utorrent...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jase33:
i have been stuck like that before. get into to the bootloader screen from where its hung at the google splash screen. once there you can fastboot a factory image.

from the google screen:

1. hold volume up, volume down and power until you get to the screen with the android and its belly open

2. connect to pc

3. download factory image from HERE

4. unzip the tar file you just downloaded and place the contents in your platform-tools folder

5. double click the file named flash-all.bat

6. wait for it to finish and it should boot up just fine.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skampflens:
say what? Hold vol.up, vol.down and power until i get to bootloader?

when i press vol up, vold down, and power, holding them all in together from the google screen the device shuts down..

Do you have a youtube tutorial gudie or something?

EDIT:

Also, I've never rooted or done anythign with this tablet except downloading a few apps etc...this crash happened when downloading from utorrent...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fuzzra:
The key combination is to be used from being powered off.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skampflens:
Yeah, and from what i can read it also needs an unlocked bootloader, which i don't have..
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jase33:
just keep holding the keys down. it will shut down. keep holding it will try to boot back up and take you to the bootloader screen. you do not need an unlocked boot loader. all my nexus devices have locked bootloaders, are rooted and run custom roms.

Hi Jonny,

I've installed your new version of CM 10.2. I tried a clean install two times. Each time after first reboot trebuchet fc immediately. While using the phone the screen freezes a lot. I have to remove battery to start again. In Antutu the phone reboots when it comes to graphic rendering.

Before i used older versions of CM10.2. I only had problems and reboots with sultans new RAM management. The November version with 798 MB RAM worked perfectly.

I will try to give you logs as soon as possible. I don't have time to test further. Installed an older version again.

[HTC EVO 3D] tom0769:
I've experienced almost the same. Then I did a 2nd clean install, where I first installed only the rom.

After a first boot I did some settings, replaced launcher with Nova and rebooted into recovery.

Now i flashed gapps rebooted and setup google account.

In settings-performance I enabled 16-bit transparency, restored my apps/data with Titanium and rebooted again.

Et voila:)
[HTC EVO 3D] Bender80:
It seems to be a Trebuchet Launcher problem. With Nova there aren't any freezes.

But Antutu still crashes during GPU benchmark. I've made some changes in development settings. Force GPU rendering, 4x MSAA. No success.

Can you test if your phone reboots, too?

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iBolski:
The issue with KitKat is it's a different kernel. In order to reap the benefits of KitKat, you need to run the latest kernel.

SafeStrap for the RAZR HD can only install ROMs using the same kernel as whatever you currently have on your phone. Unlike SafeStrap for the OG RAZR, which uses kexec to allow you to load any kernel, the HD version doesn't have kexec. Therefore, don't expect to see a SS KitKat ROM.

But, the RAZR HD is scheduled to get KitKat. Just not sure when. I would say sometime after March, 2014.
