Yea I was on clean ROM (whatever the latest release was) I was on that for a very long time I flashed it the day of release and switched maybe a month ago. Either way one day it just stopped working. Now I'm on the latest stock vzw I've changed radios and used the fastergps app. It will very rarely find my location but immediately lose it my GPS is just nonfunctional nothing happened to cause it either it just worked one day and not the next.

I did the screw fix and connection tab fix for a friend and it's back to normal on hia phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] GrumpyJoe:
I had this problem when my software updated to 4.4.2 and I going the only fix that worked for me was a factory reset. It is my understanding that this update was very hard on Samsung phones. My GPS works fine now. But the price is it took me about 3 days to get my phone back to the way I had it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nwh5024:
Not sure if it would be the case for others but this has been discussed a lot in the slim thread. There is an edit to the GPS config that helps some people.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gahh Its Lee:
Care to share this info?

Where can I find this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nwh5024:
1. Use a root file manager to edit /etc/gps.conf (mount as R/W)

2. Scroll to the bottom of the file and change

LPP_PROFILE = 0. This worked

to

LPP_PROFILE = 1

3. Reboot

Again I just know this helped in Slim not sure if it applies across the board.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] andyman4lyfee:
I was exactly like you. I used CleanROM for a long time. It was exactly what I needed. But I was getting outdated so I started flashing different KK roms.

I recommend SlimKat 4.4. If you search the long thread, there is the gps editing that is suggested above. or you can try this one, a slightly more elaborate version:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50448248&postcount=1185

But the thing that helped me the most was actually full wipe of internal storage in addition to system wipe, cache, etc. I freed up about 6GB and my GPS started working better.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] saintsatinstain:
I have the Nexus 4, an awesome beast at an affordable price. Some limits of Nexus devices almost convinced me not two buy one, but I solved these with these necessary accessories and device types. I list general categories, you research find best for your needs and wants.

No FM tuner: I found Bluetooth receivers, small, in which you plug in ear buds, standard jack; several have FM radio.

Can't remove battery. Former phones I carried two charged batteries as backups which few folk do. Now it carry a portable solar power charger.

No expandable space, no SD card. I carry a1 TB external hard drive which creates own WiFi network; it fits in my shirt pocket.

No need to give brands, now you know the devices, you can find several by a search with Ixquick or SSL Google..

Earlier I had phones with FM radio real tuners, not streaming apps. Some radio stations dont stream., plus FM tuners dont use your data plan just use battery. At first I used a mini radio but when I discoveed the Bluetooth with FM tuner I had two functions into one device.

The solar power charger I have so small I plan to buy another. You can charge in the sun and with computer USB. After full charge either way when home I leave it in window light. It's always fully charged when I leave the house. The charger has wrist strap; I hang the charger out on my pack to keep it fully charged.

The WiFi enabled 1 TB I use to stream music, video, and movies to my Nexus 4 and 7 (second generation, WiFi); it can stream to 4 devices same .

time. Google wants Nexus owners to upload their own music to Google servers then stream to Nexus device. I dont like that. I moved the Windows document folder to the D drive. I have my whole D drive on my external wifi drive. At home it is one of two al synchronized with D drive. When I travel I take one; always have out of house backup. I can access fall my files, text, audio, and visual.

The small purse size rubber bags women use for their private travel necessities I use one all charging accessories. I use the Nexus 7 cable and ac for both 4 and 7, and for solar charger.Bluetooth and external hard drive have own cables. Now my awesome 4 awesomer.

General principle: think what you need and want when you go out in home city and in travels. Carry backup Battery or charger. That's minimum.

With the undivine intervention of some folk here, their instructions, and software I have a rooted Nexus 4 and Nexus 7. Nexus 4 specs say 17 hours talk time, I get 18plus.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] rbgabriel:
The removal of FM radio from smartphones it's one of the major faults of Google and reveals that they don't give a s*it about what happens outside the big markets.

My 3rd world country, obsolete and with a 9th world infrastructure can't handle streaming radio. I have 200MB/month of good internet (1Mbps). After a reach that, I have worse internet than dialup speed.

I don't know a single user of streaming radio apps here and I doubt that anyone would spend their precious data with radio.

After removing the FM radio hardware, not only Google pissed of thousands of users that loved to listen the radio but also the radio stations, that lost all these thousands of listeners.

Thanks for the tips. Will look for some bluetooth receivers
[Nexus 4 Accessories] snapdesign:
Could you please post what BT you use for FM radio? Or send me a pm...thanks
[Nexus 4 Accessories] saintsatinstain:
Some HTC phones have radio

I figure that in your country Bluetooth and WiFi important technologies. I recommend the Seagate Wireless Plus; it holds a TB of data.

Google peeved me off by not having radio. They make a powerful quality phone without some carrier skin on top of Android, with apps you may not use but can't really call them bloat, plus you can go to settings, apps and disable ones you don't use.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] midzan21:
So after almost month using CM9 and before that CM10.1 by Bleached before 3 days I got back on KitKat ROM's.

And now here is problem which I discovered still in February with CM11 by The Whisp and now on OmniROM.

Problem is that I can run Instagram, BUT - when I try to post image app stops working and nothing helps and only battery pull out works. On any other ROM (like CM10.1 BLeached, CM9 any build, older CM10.x builds) it works great, but on any KitKat ROM it crashes (Ican't get any logcat coz phone totaly breaks).

Any help should be great :)

EDIT: All problems are gone away now... Instagram account is deleted and now I'm gonna use Pinterest with Pixlrmatic for picture editing. Either way if somebody knows how to fix this or maybe get any kind of logcat to make this app working on KitKat based ROMs with 3.4 kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] midzan21:
Just a update: with CM11 build 08032014 and everything newer Instagram works again. Hopefully that was some Instagram issues, not ROM based as far I hope so.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magnus-deth:
Hi all, i have a my sad story and a little of hope to get help from you.

Firstly i have bought LG G2 D800 at ebay, seller warn me that it is rooted, but due to android devices is new to me, i have no pay attention to it.

After couple days of using I received and notice to update software for my device from AT&T manufacturer and without hesitation it was accepted.

To my surprise but not for the rest advanced android users i got boot loop with LG logo and after heavy digging of internet i have found the way to fix it.

The instruction is this

My fail to this instruction was that i had downloaded sbl1.img, aboot.img, rpm.img, tz.img with 9Kb size with same crap code inside for each file and drop them to my D800 using ubuntu. When i pool out data cable the screen goes down and nothing else. Ubuntu is not recognize partitions anymore. Then after all it i realize what was happen.

Current situation is:

Due to i'me new to unix systems i'm not see any activity that ubuntu is detect my phone or anything that can tell that its not dead at all while i plugin data cable.

As for the windows when i plugin data cable its recognize in Device Manager my D800 as 'Unknown device' under USB section.

When i hold for awhile power button without cable and then release it and then hold volume up when plugin cable then windows recognize it as QHSUSB_BULK under Other Devices or under Ports (COM & LPT). No any disk mounting appears as when it was during boot loop problem.

Display, leds, speakers of the phone does not do anything, not even black screen, looks like it has power off.

This post is last hope to bring the phone alive. I assume if there is any chance to fix it to get back and place correct files to my device.

I also assume if there any android or else code to place to usb flash drive to use it with OTG cable. I sow a video where samsunge galaxy was used with some device (i assume it was usb flash drive with some code inside) and dead phone screen appears with android logo...

My phone is LG G2 32Gb black with installed KitKat 4.4.2

Please help me. I will be very gratefully for any help.

Thank a lot.

HERES A FIX FOR THOSE ON MARSHMELLOW IF YOU CANT FIND THE SETTINGS.DB

you have to change some settings using SQLite. so it seems that it has been moved and renamed in Marshmellow.

if you open SQLite Editor and go to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases and then its the telephony.db . Tap on "telephony.db" and then tap on "carriers" and this is where you can add the ",dun" to both lines, "APN2 LTE internet" and "APN2 EHRPD internet" to enable tethering. Happy tethering :o

Hi,

I recently had a problem with one of the IC's on my Mini and had it fixed.

It's working fine now but the red led on the top of the phone is constantly glowing which did not happen before I had it serviced.

They haven't changed any software on the phone.

Any idea what could be causing this and how to turn it off?

Thanks

Low Battery?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] toomuchdogfur:
Actually the red LED is only constantly on when the back battery cover is off (on some builds of the Magician reportedly - mine included). Good chance that whoever serviced your phone might have stuffed up the two metal switches or their contacts that detect whether the cover is off or not. These switches should be pretty obvious when the cover is off - silver, pointy and spring-loaded.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] JDark:
No. If there is any problem with cover switch (open constantly) - PDA will not turn on. There may be an issue with daughterboard (earphone speaker and all leds are on a small "daughterboard", connected to main board with small connector, that's often broken, if phone were dropped. Or there may be some circuit malfunction, however, only the qualified specialist can find it.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] toomuchdogfur:
Hmmm, thats true, so its most likely a fried or loose component. Have you tried twisting the hands of your friendly Magician servicer :P ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ak_dev:
Hi guys,

I don't have access to ROM forum yet so I posted a thread here. My intention is to clarify the process of flashing native Linux with XBMC to this box.

The reference thread is:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2418029

What started my doubts was the information on checking the MTD layout before proceeding with the update. I have checked mine via ssh and it is different from what is posted on the above thread.

Mine is:

dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00800000 00200000 "bootloader"
mtd1: 00400000 00200000 "ubootenv"
mtd2: 00800000 00200000 "logo"
mtd3: 00800000 00200000 "aml_logo"
mtd4: 00800000 00200000 "recovery"
mtd5: 00800000 00200000 "boot"
mtd6: 40600000 00200000 "system"
mtd7: 20000000 00200000 "cache"
mtd8: 10000000 00200000 "backup"
mtd9: 18c600000 00200000 "userdata"

which is same as the author's of this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2492843

I have also checked the contents of the zip file from the first cited thread (the "updater-script" file in particular) and it looks like the only MTD partitions that are modified are: boot, system and logo.

I want to build the system myself from sources using what is already available on the Internet (probably using croniccorey's repo).

That being said, my questions are:

1. Is it safe to update the box to Native Linux? Are mtd0 (bootloader) and mtd4 (recovery) partitions left intact during update? If so, there should be no risk of bricking the device.

2. How is booting to recovery done? What I have already found is that the detection of the pressed-during-power-on button is done in the bootloader phase. So if the bootloader stays at mtd0 of the NAND flash and I accidentaly erease that partition, I brick the device with no chance to get to recovery mode. Am I right?

3. Does AM8726-MX try to boot from other than default devices if NAND boot fails? If so, It would be possible to copy U-boot to SD card and start from there. I can't find the processor's datasheet neither the schematics of G18ref board.

4. Is there a way to find the offset of a particular MTD partition in running system with no source knowledge? Using cat /proc/mtd I only get partition sizes. Partitions may follow each other with unused space in between, so if my real MTD layout differs from what I have in the updated system, I may have troubles (e.x. I may overwrite the recovery partition writing to boot partition)

5. From the config file of G18ref board:

https://github.com/CoreTech-Develop...ter/arch/arm/configs/meson6_g18_mx2_defconfig

and the board configuration file:

https://github.com/CoreTech-Development/mx-common/blob/master/arch/arm/mach-meson6/board-m6g18.c

I can see that some NOR flash is used (CONFIG_AMLOGIC_SPI_NOR=y). If so, what about the fact that my bootloader has a partition on NAND (mtd0). Or maybe mtd0 and mtd1 belong to NOR flash and the rest (mtd2..9) are NAND partitions?

I am confused. Would appreciate help.

Regards, ak_dev.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ak_dev:
So far I have found the answers for:

Simply by finding it in dmesg, for example:

dmesg | grep -C 20 mtd

I have tried finding the info in /sys, but it looks like there is no offset information there

No signs of SPI NOR flash in the system yet...

From dmesg, I can see that mtd0 and mtd1 are created on same NAND as other partitions.

But another question arised.

dmesg reports:

[ 4.133286@0] Creating 9 MTD partitions on "B revision NAND 8GiB MT29F64G08CBABA":
(...)
[ 4.157462@0] 0x000002400000-0x000002c00000 : "recovery"
(...)

But in the board-m6g18.c file there is a definition for recovery partition:

{
.name = "recovery",
.offset = 64*SZ_1M+40*SZ_1M,
.size = 8*SZ_1M,
}

64*SZ_1M+40*SZ_1M = 0x6800000

Why the offsets don't match? Wrong board config file? Don't think so...

And still, I can't find answers to other questions...
