Hi,

on installing the Null_18-ROM I set the Checkbox for "THE FULL SYSTEMUI" in Aroma-Installer. After that I got the Notification Bar, which was very nice. But on the other side the Double Tap for Brightness/Sound was disappointed.

Because of that I installed the ROM new without "THE FULL SYSTEMUI". The double tap now works again, but I have no Notification Bar.

Is it possible to reinstall only the Notification Bar? Or is there a way to activate it on Nova Launcher? I've looked for but I didn't found it.

Thx forward.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] mtbooker:
I'm not certain if that's possible, but a workaround is to put a brightness toggle widget on your home/lockscreen. That's been working pretty well for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] almulder1092:
There is no way to have them both, but check out my tutorial on an option and see if that will work for you

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] mtbooker:
I was playing around with tasker and you can also assign a gesture in Nova to a tasker "task" that toggles between torch and normal.

The task could look something like:

1) Auto Brightness -- Set Off

2) Variable Add -- Name %BTOG Value 1

3) Display Brightness -- Level 30 -- If %BTOG Is Even

4) Display Brightness -- Level 255 -- If %BTOG Is Odd

Let me know if you're interested and I can go into more detail.

Hey guys, I don't know what could be the issue, but anytime my phone is in my pants leg pocket, either one, it turns off.

If I put it in my shirt pocket it's fine, I was thinking, could it be related to the cheap chinese knock-off battery I am using for it? It seems to fit OK, and I've tried everything to recreate it going in my pocket, but nothing seems to work outside of the pocket.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] palmbeach05:

Hey there quick question if anybody knows the answer.... so I'm thinking about porting my number over to Tmobile due to the god awful speeds I have with 4G in downtown Denver... if I run into the same issues on Tmobile... am I able to reverse the port? If I wait a week or two for some testing time and leave the vzw account active, I would think I can?? Anybody had experience with this?

thanks

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyanideGod:
Hi there.

I am new in the forum. Thanks ind advance for any help you can provide me.

Here's the issue:

We just bought the new "Kids" Version. It came with 2 accounts, the normal mode and the kids mode. The kids mode was accessible through a "Kids mode" icon in the normal mode.

I really don't know what my wife did, but she erased the "kids mode" icon and that account is not accessible anymore. Still, I can search for the kids apps and they still show up.

I got two different error messages. An "error 210" and the "Unfortunately the Setup launcher has stopped" (or similar. I don't have the tab here with me)

I thought my only choice here was to download the firmware it came with it, which is T2105UEAMK3-XAR, and re-install it. But KIES won't let me install it, since it displays the "Your firmware is up to date" message. And Samsung doesn't have an official firmware download anywhere. I also talked to an online Samsung representative, who directed me to perform a hard reset. Still, back to factory settings, the "kids mode" icon didn't appear. So he told me to schedule a service. But my daughter won't get any happier if I send out her beloved toy for a week or two.

This is my first venture (or issue) with an Android device. I have found a seemingly endless numbers of video tutorials and the likes, but still, I don't want to mess up with it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated -specially by my daughter :)

Thank you.

I don't really need a GPS :) but I thought it might be kinda interesting to get a cheap'n'cheerful unit and then probably the basic Microsoft streetmaps package for a bit of fun. I don't want to spend a lot, but obviously I would still like it to work! I've narrowed it down to one of two GPS units, and I wonder if anyone here has any comments on them?

BT-77 (£39.99 plus VAT from http://www.inter-activeinformation.com/uk/product_info.php?products_id=31)

8590 (£39.95 inc VAT from http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/8590.htm)

* They both have USB and in-car cigarette-lighter style chargers, which will allow me charge my MDA Vario in the car too, so that's useful.

* The 8590 uses the same Li-ion battery as my old Nokia phone, so that could give me an extra charged battery to keep in the car.

* The 8590 also has a USB port, as well as the Bluetooth connection, so I could connect it directly into my laptop if I wanted to - although I do have a bluetooth dongle for the laptop anyway, so that's not really a major factor.

* The BT-77 has 16 channels while the 8590 only has 12 - how much of a factor to consider is that?

* The BT-77 appears to have slightly better battery life, according to the comments I've seen.

* The BT-77 is a bit more expensive and has a two-week delivery wait at the moment (not critical, no real urgency).

So - does anyone have any experience with either of these units and might care to comment on which would be best, or anything else for me to bear in mind?

Regards,

Andre (very new to this whole GPS lark!)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] twojags:
I use a Fuzion Solar GPS which has a solar panel to keep it charged up. It was £59 from next Generation Sales on Ebay. After a little bit of a sweat trying to set it up with TomTom 5 I've been pretty impressed with it.

It apparently works for 30hours but I haven't had cause to check it as it's not used that long and I leave it by the window when not in use. It uses a Nok3650 replaceable battery so you could keep a spare in the unlikely event of it running flat.

For those with similar problems you need to search for the device in Bluetooth and accept the serial port option. In Windows Make sure blutooth is switched on then go to the CABLE settings in TomTom and set the Baud Rate to 38400. Then click done and go to other bluetooth gps device and in my case it was now available on com 6.

i bought the 8590 from mobilefun last week, it was a good little device but i found it a bit too slow to get a lock, especially in london, sometimes it never got a lock :(

I returned it and have now got a Holux GPSlim236, which was 70 notes, but you certainly get what you pay for. This device gets a lock a lot quicker and is more appears more precise than the 8590. It also has a usb charger, pairs with Tomtom no problems and is slighty smaller than the 8590.

Perhaps i could have lived with the cheaper device, but now i have the holux i dont think i would go back...

BT-77

I have a BT GPS that is the same make as the BT-77 but branded under another name (Wonde-X BT GPS).

It sometimes takes ages to lock on, and this is with the plug in antenna.

Then on some days it takes 30 seconds, so I really don't know. There are better BT GPS out there, so I would give this one a miss if you have another option.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] andrewilley:

gps

I have a polestar BT gps which I aquired from http://www.deluoelectronics.com. I like it a lot, it works well, about the size of a zippo cigarette lighter, and the 3 ni-mh AAA batteries last a long time (although after having it about 18 months I finally had to replace the ones that came with the unit, something about being left in my jeep and freezing in the winter and melting in the summer :P )

This unit is small enough to toss in your pocket, the batteries are placed on the bottom so if it sits on your dash its not top heavy. Even has some rubber feet so it doesnt slide all over. In my jeep (which I take off roads quite often) it has never fallen over which suprises me becuase a few times my jeep almost fell over :)

Solarius V3 Bluetooth GPS Receiver is great

I just bought Solarius V3 Bluetooth GPS Receiver with Tom Tom software - it is simply great. I'm using it my Cingular 8125 (HTC Wizard). The pairing was a breeze, getting Tom Tom to activate was another matter.

The GPS unit has solar panel for backup power - supposedly lasting for as much as 30 hours between charges. Here's a link to where I got it from:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] andrewilley:
Well that was pretty painless... The Holux 236 arrived this morning (Monday - and I only paid for it on eBay last Tuesday and it had to come from Taiwan to the UK!) Nothing extra to pay at the door either, which was good news.

First reaction: Gosh, it's tiny isn't it?!! I almost thought they'd forgotten to put the GPS unit in the box! :) For anyone who's not got one, it's far smaller than half the size of the Wizard.

Second reaction: Bluetooth connected perfectly, first time. Couldn't get GPS software to see the unit at first - until I remembered to create an outgoing COM port in the Bluetooth Config screen, after which it all worked straight away. My phone talked me all the way to work half an hour later, how cute is this technology?

Thanks to everyone for all the advice.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] marshall_teller:
I've got a Holux GPSlim 236 for almost a year now and for me it the best ever. It worked with my Magician and now with my Wizard. When it has a lock it stays locked even when i'm in side my house. You can navigate to the toilet if you want!

It's lays in the back of my car in a closed compartment were it has a 12V connection. When i fire up TomTom it's up and running in 3 seconds.

So you understand by now that i recommend the Holux GPSlim 236.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] andrewilley:
I was thinking of doing that too. Do you just leave it switched on all the time, and is it only supplied with power with the ignition switch? Using a permanent 12v supply seems a good idea, and would keep the internal battery trickle-charged, but I wondered whether it might run down the car battery if left parked for a while as the receiver & bluetooth would always be running? On the other hand, if it's on a switched power supply, the Li-ion battery will continue to drain and go flat overnight while the car is parked, and then start re-charging when you're driving, which as far as I know isn't ideal for Li-ion batteries.

I am looking at 4 different GPS bluetooth units and 2 have SiRF III, the 2 to do no but they all seem to be pretty equal.

Personally just from readin the below it sounds like the StarsNav is better. Help me out.

First is the OnCourse SiRF Star III

Third is i-Blue PS-3200

http://www.buygpsnow.com/i-blue-hig...ceiver-ps-3200-free-arkon-vent-mount-509.html

chipset: NEMERIX GPS Module

channels: 16

Reacquisition <3sec

Hot start 5 sec, average

chipset: SiRF III

channels: 20

Hot start: 42 sec

Cold Start: 8 sec

sensitivity -159

appx 8 hours of use
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] 3waygeek:
The Sirf III chip has much greater signal sensitivity than other chips -- you can actually pick up signals indoors. The increased sensitivity also means it can use more satellites to make a fix, resulting in increased accuracy.

I'm using the cheapo £40 one from www.mobilefun.co.uk and can't recommend it highly enough.

my battery lasts well over the ten hours suggested on the website and charges fast, Nokia battery compatibility also means spares batteries are mad cheap from Ebay and the like.

Same mini USB connector for charging as the Wizard also means you get a free in-car charger for the Wizard and only ever have to carry one charger round.

Mine always gets a fix in less than 30secs and other than when driving through a tunnel has never EVER lost signal (and always reconnects in a split second after exiting tunnel).

I switch mine on and pop on the dashboard to get first fix then just chuck it in the glovebox for the day and always have at least 5 fixes, or about 8-10 if left on the dashboard.

auto off after 15minutes with no bluetooth pairing is also a nice feature meaning that it doesn't matter if you forget to switch it off when leaving the car, however if you just stop for fuel or something it's long enough for the devices to automatically reconnect when you get back in the car

GPS disappointment

I just picked up a copy of iGuidance and a Solarius solar GPS receiver (sirf III) from Semsons & Co.

First, if it weren't for this forum, I would have had NO idea that I need to create an outgoing COM port. None of the instructions (badly translated by the way) mention this. When everything is working as best as I can get it, it's a full 3 seconds or more behind me as I drive 30mph. iGuidance doesn't have many of the roads built less than 2-3 years ago on it so lots of times it shows me as off road.

The main disappointment howerver, is that I have to re-establish the bluetooth connection every time I get back in the car. Are all receivers like this or is the Wizard or WM5 part of the problem? If it's the receiver, I may see if Semsons will exchange for another...will the BT338 or Holux avoid the issue?

Also, iGuidance seems to work, at best, for about 5 minutes. Then it either crashes or caushes the whole system to run so slowly that it's unusable (i mean press a button and get response 1-5 minutes later!). Granted, I do have a few other apps and today plug-ins installed (not a lot mind you) ... are there any famous conflicts I should watch for?

disappointed,

Tim
