I have a Holux (not HOLOX - cheap copy) 20 channel BT GPSlim 236 receiver which is great. A 32 channel receiver may well mean you stand a slightly better chance of picking up satelites but there isn't 32 satelites up there anyway.

The system works by triangulation meaning you only need three to get a lock on your position. The more you see the better though as the lock will be stronger. Many will tell you that due to the curvature of the earth you can only ever pick up 6 satelites maximum, but I happen to disagree.

Tomtom 5.21 is great, got it the other day and I found my way home first time... lol.!

Matt.

p.s Don't forget that GPS works using US military satelites, so if the US feels a bit twitchy i.e. either someone is about to pick on them or vice versa then they can change the coordinates of the satelites meaning over a distance you won't have a clue where you are!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] djtaylor:
Yeah it does but you might not need it.

Say you've got TT talking to the GPS on COM7, that's fine until you now need another app also talking to the GPS at the same time. It can't because the GPS is already talking to TT like a pair of housewives that haven't seen each other for, oh about a day! (ok, nothing like a bit of evil stereotyping eh?).

What the GPS control panel lets you do is share the GPS between multiple apps. You configure the GPS CP to talk to the real GPS via the hardware port number and then create a software GPS port.

You now configure your apps to talk to the software GPS port and the GPS port driver abstracts the real GPS port and sends the data to all the interested apps.

Like I said, you might not need it unless you want multiple apps to talk to the GPS at once. Why might you want to have multiple apps? One example could be a track data logger running at the same time as the satnav.

Or another might be Wififofum doing a wifi wardrive at the same time as running Tom Tom for satnav.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vonis22:
Hi,

I've got a pretty scary problem on my hands. I tried to install CyanogenMod on my Xperia T trough CWM this morning.

I flashed my device first, wiped it with CWM itself. Then I tried to install CM from a zip I put on my SD-card before. All seemed fine at first. It said

finding update package

opening update package...

Then it just goes back to the main menu of CWM.

When I restarted, I noticed I now have a softbrick, I can only use fastboot and CWM, I tried multiple versions of CM, but they all didn't work.

So I tried to mount USB storage to CWM and that doesn't work either. It just says sdcard 0 (and 1) shared - unmounted.

What can I do to get my phone working again? I really want CM, but if that's not an option, than thats fine....

My bootloader is unlocked, and I am using CWM 6.0.4.5;

I got some error messages out of the log, not sure if theyre helpful

But please help me!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] istux:
What version of CWM are you using?

V9 by davidmarco is faulty...

Another question: is your bootloader unlocked?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vonis22:
My bootloader is unlocked, checked through the service shenanigans.

I'm using CWM 6.0.4.5

Hope it helps you helping me!

EDIT: Succesfully flashed android stock 4.3 onto the device, still doesn't explain why CWM didn't work. Looking for a way to install CM 10/11.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Antiga Prime:
How did you get CWM on your phone?

Where did you get the CM zip file from?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] istux:
Flash stock 4.1.2

Root it and then try with this CWM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2012738

Choose v7 or v8.

DON'T download v9 because it's buggy.

Then you can install CM again ;)

Anyway I suggest to try Omnirom for our beloved T ;) ... since CM has still the blue screen bug that developers haven't fixed yet :(
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vonis22:
Got the CM zip at the official site, I am now downloading one from FreeXperia project

Thanks for the reply! I'm going to try the FreeXperia project zip first, does CM10 have the same bug? I will take a look at Omnirom.

EDIT: Do you recommend a nightly (omnirom) I can't find a stable anywhere...

Thank you guys for trying to help me out, I really appreciatie it, will keep updating!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] istux:
FreeXperia team is who develops and lets CM work properly on our T, so the answer is: YES, you will get the same bugs unfortunately :(
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vonis22:
So do you recommend a nightly OmniRom. I feel like I'm overlooking a stable somewhere......
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] istux:
FXP zips are good, I'm just trying to explain that every FXP release is melted with the next CM nightly any time.

Omnirom is a different project and is very stable for Xperia T, since there are developers that are working for this rom nowdays..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vonis22:
Thank you very much, I have succefully installed and configured OmniRom on my Xperia T. This seems like a really cool alternative!

My problem is solved thanks to you guys!:good::good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Antiga Prime:
FXP and CM generally have the same bugs, but last time I was on FXP's CM11, I can't think of any bug aside from the terrible battery life, which might not be the same for the T since most, if not all, developers have a T (I've got a TX).

On the other hand, I'd recommend you look for ROMs first on XDA instead of through Google or the ROM developer's website, since on XDA there are developers that actually read the comments in threads and in my experience, fix problems faster. For instance, [MENTION=3381828]tilal6991[/MENTION] has this ROM, which I don't know if it is on the official OmniROM download page, but it has had some recent updates that fix the blue screen, MHL Hdmi, and in my case, the ROM I'm on also borrows files from his ROM, which fixes battery drain while on WiFi, something that has NOT been fixed on FXP (which makes me wonder about how they "develop").

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Antipathy:
Hi, I'd like to first start off by saying that it all boils down to personal preference in the end but I'm currently having a hard time deciding what to pick and what to do. There's so many choices and alternatives, so what I'd like to hear is what you yourself feel about the matter of about; Roms, kernels, underclocking and undervolting.

I should probably mention that I have a Google nexus 7 2013 (deb).

It's rooted, unlocked and flashed so many times but I keep coming back to stock due to the inability to make an educated decision in what I should have.

I'm currently running the stock Rom, rooted of course and currently with the elementalx kernel.

I've been trying several roms but none of them feel quite right.

I was going to try paranoid Android but as it stands now it appears it's without a lot of its intended customization that spoke to me in the first place. Leaving it to feel almost stock but with a few extra features, which led me to come right back to stock with gravity box.

What do you believe is a good Rom and kernel for the maximum battery life?

Note that I don't really game on the device, I mostly browse the Internet and listen to music and muck about in the settings, I like to tinker.

Does underclocking and undervolting make a difference in the end?

Please share your experience with all of the above, or any if you have tried it. Please try and not make any assumptions and keep it as civil as possible.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] THEBANDIT420:
It really depends what you're looking for in a ROM/kernel. For you it seems you really care about battery life so you're definitely going to want both a custom ROM and kernel. I recommend purity ROM or clean ROM and either Franco or elementalx kernel for battery. As far as UC and UV underclocking can save heaps of battery but at the significant cost of performance while undervolting can save a bit at no cost to performance but may cause stability issues.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Antipathy:
Yes, battery is probably the most important aspect for me and second to that I love customization and tinkering with stuff.

I've been running Francos kernel as well, I actually just reverted back to r16 from elemental.

As far as those two roms go, which one would you pick and why?

It appears I'm a sucker for AOSP, not sure why, but it seems widely more customizable, especially since I'm already very used to have the KK gravity box with the xposed framework.

Update; I've been mucking about with the voltages and I think I've found a pretty good balance so far, I have undervolted by -75mv across the board with Franco. I tried going to -100mv but I found out that Spotify can't start under those conditions, it crashes on boot.

I have also underclocked down to 1242mhz while keeping the lowest 384mhz.

It feels stable, the battery has been alright today, but I'd like to squeeze more out of it.

So how much more effect would having another ROM really have? I've read on this site that it's little to no effect at all. But then again, I've seen skeptical people writing that underclocking and undervolting doesn't really do that much.

I have to tell you, it's quite a noticeable difference, but people will tell me it's placebo.

Someone with a bit more ROM experience than me, feel free to step in and give me an educated review of what you feel works.

Update2; I have a follow up question, do the CPUs have to work harder when it's undervolted? I have seen a rise in the workload for them, very sporadic.

It's sort of like peaks and valleys in the diagrams.

Which brings me to the next question, if that's the case or not, will there be a decreased lifespan in them?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tulen_kobi:
Hello,

Recently my phone dropped and half of my touch screen stopped working. I have disassembled my phone just to try if the old lcd will work when I plug the connector out and in again. I discovered that no so I have ordered the new LCD. During the reparation I accidentally broke coaxial cable between the antenna and motherboard so I ordered the new one. Now phone worked, but there was no phone signal but display and everything else worked just fine. I have disassembled the phone again when the new coaxial cable arrived but I have discovered, that I have bought bad one because it did not work. So I left the phone disassembled and wait for another one.

After I assembled the phone with the second coaxial cable my phone does not show nothing on the screen, even on the old LCD. When I connect phone to the pc I got instantly to the fastboot and I can get out of it. After fastboot reboot I get again to the fastboot.

Sometimes the LCD powers up but does not show nothing, and when the phone is in the charger the diode is red.

Does anybody have any idea how can I fix this problem?

I have tried to boot the phone without camera, speaker, antena, but nothing worked.

Wonder if there is any chance that it will fix SD card issue when it will appear on our tegra notes ?

I must say that even if I do not give the monkey about apps (since they can have the access to their folders only and if devs will prepare them for this apps should work just fine) I am mad at Google that it took my most used function of file management!

I have used my tablet to download and browse on the go my photos from slr now its impossible since my 64gb cards is useless in its slot.

As I understand NVIDIA could solve my biggest issue with KitKat just by addition ng any file browser into their ROM.
