[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] rremiaszz:
Alright so this is what I have installed:

baseband: vraljb

rom: gummy 4.4.2 ver. 2.1 -01-09-14 NIGHTLY

kernel: 3.0.64-gummy-gbe62803

pa-gapps flashed

cwm recovery 6+ latest

I have been trying the 4.4 roms available (gummy,cm11,pa,slim) and on none of them the gps works. I was wondering if there is a fix so that I can get the GPS to work on the 4.4 roms? I have only tired google maps and the gps does not work on google maps for me. Basically when i try to navigate to a destination it keeps on saying searching for signal... Any advice greatly appreciated!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nullmem:
When this happens to me I flash a TW rom, enable gps, let it get a good signal lock, then reboot into recovery and re-flash custom rom. This has always worked for me in the past, might be worth a try.

It's a simple enough question but after a lot of looking there doesn't seem to be a readily available answer.

I have seen many programs that allow you to access network drives in the program over wi-fi and you can click and open files from within there and any associated programs run it.

What I can't seem to find is a network share type of approach where you make a network drive available in file explorer (say like Storage Card) so you can access files easier.

For example I can't see a way of playing more than one music track over the network without having a share you can create playlists from in the player
[Networking] ag0w:
Typical - I've just found out that Resco Explorer seems to 'fill that gap'

Odd - Total commander put the directory there but it's empty --- share in Resco and the files appear

Great!

I'm still intrigued to know where it gets it's user ID and password because it seems to know one of mine and if I disable that ID in windows it can't access the server ???????????
[Networking] coldfire_nz:
Hi mate can you tell me how to set up a network ...i have braodband connection and i can connect my jam using wifi and surf the net....but i am not able to sertup a network between my computer and jam so that i can view files and play music!!!

Would be great if you could give me a step my step procedure!!...thanks
[Networking] ag0w:
Sorry if you know what shares and stuff is - but here goes:

Download something like resco explorer from resco.net and install it on your pocket pc

On your pc in file explorer right click on the folder you want to access then properties then sharing then share this folder and give it a name (say for example "name")

On the Resco program on the Pocket PC tap the 'hand under the box' icon - bottom right ; then map drive - now hopefully you should see your computer under 'computers near me' - click on it and you should see your share ('name') type these details in the box above \\server\name then click on share ( I don't know why but it only worked for me this way - clicking on the share in the drop down list didn't) - NOTE: 'server' = the name your pc you are trying to connect has --- the one shown in the list above the shares

Now this share will be available under network in the resco file explorer

The bonus is if you now go to something a little cleverer than media player - like tcpmp you will be able to type \\'server'\'name' into the top box of open file and access the network directly --- create playlists too

Only drawback is I found you need at least 400MHz PPC to stand a chance of playing audio OK directly from the network

As a final note drives on computers can have hidden shares denoted by $ there is also and admin hidden share set-up by windows that is the drive letter. This means you should be able to access the whole of your network drive by accesing share - 'Drive letter'$ ... For C this would be \\'server'\c$
[Networking] trixter:
file shares

is there any known tool for WM5 that will allow you to export a WM5 directory over the network? That would indeed be handy, especially if you have two people with such phones and no laptop to act as an intermediary system to share directories, not just individual files.

Yes I know that individual file sharing can happen by beaming it, but that is slow and cumbersome, being able to export an entire directory would be much more handy.
[Networking] Mark Falsebeard:
Thank you for this, I've been trying to work this out for a while, exactly what I needed is right here :D

Hi, first of all I don't know if this goes in q&a or theme/apps, but here goes:

attached are two screenshots of my current setup. Obviously I'm going with a very stock KitKat theme.

I would like to have a flashlight widget that sort of fits into the theme of this. Semi transparent like the google search bar or something. I know I can use uccw but wondered if anyone knew of a standalone app/widget.

Would also like some sort of battery indicator since I don't like it in the status bar. Maybe something like a simple line across my screen? also following the theme ideally. Don't care to know exact percentage so it doesn't have to have the number with it. jusy something easier to read than my status bar.

I'll also share how I am set up if anyone is interested.

Thank you!

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solarenemy68:
You can't get one. it is either built in to your phone or not. it is an IR (infrared light emitter). A GS3 does not have one. they only started using them on the S4 and the Note 3. On the Note3 it is a small round black looking plastic plug on the top end of the phone just to the right of the speaker. There is a high power IR LED behind that emits beams that can work like a remote for device and they can also be used to exchange data between to similar devices.

That being said by, if you mean by Galaxy 3 as in an S3 then you cannot use this app. On the other hand if you mean a Note 3 then you can use this app and it should require no special settings. Just follow the setup instructions in the app and you are good.

Just thinking that the perfect phone would be the G2 with the matte finish. The front screen is already perfect but add the matte finish with the awesome back placement of the power button and volume keys and it would be amazing. I love my G2 but the back cover is a horrendous plastic finger print magnet. I cant imagine how many units LG would have sold if the the back cover was Matte finish like the Moto X or Nexus 5? Just dreaming...

Just purchase another back cover off eBay or so and sandpaper it (or use steel wool grade 0000). Check out the accessories forum, there's a thread there . Imo the matte finish is far more elegant.

Few people are put off by so called 'bloat'. Very few really know what an unbloated phone looks like for 2 reasons. First the Nexus' sells in tiny numbers, and second the Nexus isnt bloat free anyway! The G2 is no more burdened with bloat than any other phone.

I dont have a problem with the G2s back. Sure its plastic, but its smart. The N5 might be soft touch, but it looks and feels hollow and cheap.

The statement about the rear buttons being a turn off is true because when I first seen the G2, I was thinking to myself WTH? UGLY.

The gorgeous 5.2 inch full HD screen with tiny bezels won me over...I had the HTC One at the time (loved the aluminium build) but I wasn't happy with the One. The battery sucked, charged slow, button placements were awful. I can say without a doubt that I'm happy and satisfied with the G2 (for now):rolleyes: I believe the G2 accomplished over 2 million sales worldwide which isn't much to brag about...but it's a start for LG..especially in a world dominated by Apple and Samsung.

The Matte finishes are amazing. Why this is not standard, I have no idea. I've owned both of the Nexus 7s and several phones with this matte and it is just pure genious. Not only does it feel effing amazing in the hand, but also hides marks and blimishes.

Fortunately for the population of smartphone users that have shiny smudgy phones, they make ultra thin cases like the Incipio Feather and Barely-There which offers the same texture and feel with the added benefit of some protection on the back.

Without a case, I can't even function. I'm freaking out about where I lay my phone down. Freak out when it slides around on my desk. I found Incipio Feather cases for my Galaxy Nexus and wife's iPhone... and can't go on without it. I bought my G2 at Verizon and immediately purchased and installed the blue Feather case. Never touched the backplate. ;)

We have smashed into the performance ceiling. Without active cooling or massive increases in efficiency through improved architecture, there is no way smartphones (or tablets) can become more powerful.

I can't use 75% of this phone's potential performance while playing San Andreas. With a custom kernel and thermal throttling disabled, the phone shoots up to 90c in minutes and then reboots; that is with 'On Demand' and max frequency at 1.73 ghz.

Coming from a gnex (max stock freq. could reach 80c), absolute performance has become meaningless. Maybe it has been for a while.
[G2 General] vPro97:
This is absolutely true. We need fans or cooling systems if we shall be able to take full advantage of the massive powers in our phones. For now, I think the only way is to play our favorite games in a freezer.
[G2 General] GalaxySIIII:
otherwise lg would melt ...
[G2 General] simms22:
or, you can root your phone and disable thermal throttle. then you can use it at full performance up until you reach the thermal shutdown temp without worrying your cpu being thermally throttled :p

and i had a gnex as well, it could reach 110C. i always turned off thermal throttle, and always turn off thermal throttle on my nexus 5. you dont reach thermal shutdown without actively trying too, and the cpu doesn't get throttled.
[G2 General] khaytsus:
While that statement was not even close to being true when you posted it, tomorrow it'll be less true, etc etc.

If you build the exact same chip with a smaller die process, the smaller die process chip will be more efficient (cooler) and faster. Then there are of course other improvements that are continuously being made, more cores to spread the load, faster ram to reduce bottlenecks, etc, etc, again, all while getting faster and cooler because of improved production methods.

So no, phones will get more powerful, more ram, better screens etc.. Maybe someday we'll have another battery breakthrough, but right now with the massive push on efficiency we're getting some runtime back on batteries, etc.
[G2 General] crazysoccerman:
Actually it is true. The performance on the G2 is limited by heat. You can't run the phone under load at or near its max specified frequency for any reasonable period of time. Try it yourself. To deny that is to deny facts.

Also, a smaller die reduces the surface area for the dissipation of heat.

[G2 General] garyd9:
Imagine the HTC One, but with a heat pipe transferring heat from the SOC to the aluminum case... That would provide more cooling, but I'm not sure of the size penalty of the heat pipe.

Also, more efficient chips CAN provide more power and generate less heat. A perfect example is Intel's pentium4 "netburst" architecture vs the newer and considerably more efficient "core duo" chips.

Take care
