Best GPS.conf file that I've found for North America

Thanks for this thread, Kalz. I've tried just about every solution to improve the GPS on my ATT Note 3, rooted, with 4.4.2 -- and achieved only sporadic improvements. But your GPS.conf file replacement tip came the closest, and since discovering the site you linked to I've tried playing around with different GPS.conf file contents to get the best results.

But I recently bought a Galaxy Tab S 10.5 Tablet (great machine, but that's a different story) and saw that it had almost instantaneous GPS lock, even indoors. Obviously different hardware, but I thought, what the heck, let's try its GPS.conf file in my Note 3. I did, and the improvement was almost miraculous -- quick locks, tight accuracy. I'm in New York, so your mileage may vary, and, of course, try this at your own risk. My file is attached as a zip. Simply download and extract, then move it to system/etc and reset permissions to rw-r-r (and Owner and Group to Root) and then reboot. Of course, also rename your existing GPS.conf file with a .bak extension so you can restore it if this file doesn't work for you.

If you don't like downloads -- here's the content of the file -- you can simply edit your existing file yourself and give it a try (but, again, make a backup first!).

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] K-alz:
Thank you, sir. Very nice find. I'll add it to op for sure. Actually, I've done a similar thing, but from the S5(I took the GPS.conf and threw it in my N3) to Note 3 (since the S5 has an amazing GPS as I've been using it all the time) and it worked just like it did for you. I don't know, it's something about the new releases of Samsung after the note 3 that got the GPS to work just fine.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] rogerinnyc:
Just edited the original post to make it clear you have to reboot after changing the file - some folks might forget to do that and think it doesn't work!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Walter.White:
Can you share that S5 GPS.conf you are using??

Thanks for this! Been dealing with wifi disconnects for almost 2 years now! Always saying it's disabled because connection was slow even though it was fine. Edited Build.Prop yesterday and 24 hours of smooth connection....amazing!

Is there a thread, or does anyone know exactly why the "secure storage" line was the culprit and how it fixed the issue? I'm just curious...it's great work whoever figured that one out.

Hy all,

I just bought my Samsung Galaxy 10.1 (edition 2014)

Phone Model: SM-P600

Device type: lt03wifi

PDA Version: XXUBMJ6

Android version: 4.3

CSC: XEF

Root : OK (CF Auto Root)

Recovery : Ok (Philz Touch 6.41.6)

Knox : deleted

Backup : done

I would like to flash a Kitkat 4.4.2 custom rom, but first let me know if I can flash directly (after nandroid banckup) or if it is better to install a stock KitKat rom at first (via Odin) and then after flashing a custom.

With my Galaxy Note 2 I know that I had to change the bootloader before flashing Kitkat but here I do not know.

Thank you for your information and advice

NB : excuse my signature always under SGNII :p
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Aeyan Ashraf:
It is important to Flash stock 4.4.2 before flashing any custom kitkat Rom . And it becomes very must if you are flashing a CM based rom. Flashing Stock Kitkat changes the old bootloader to the kitkat bootloader which is essential for Flashing CM based ROMs .

Hope this helps you !!!

Don't forget to press the thanks button !!!

Hi,

How can you control Google Maps unmute/mute voice guidance settings other than with your finger? I have not found how to do that using Tasker or Trigger.

Having the voice guidance On when walking is annoying, but having the voice guidance On when driving is very useful. So I would like to control this setting with Tasker or Trigger.

Regards, Chris

Copy it to your phone storage or external card i preferably use ecxternal card

then get your self mobile odin from following link from playstore

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.mobileodin.pro&hl=en

After installation is complete click mobile odin application icon in app drawer as shown below

View attachment 2815234

After opening it will ask for root permissions as shown

View attachment 2815247

After Giving root permissions it can go in 2 directions it may ask u to download a file to be able to flash in recovery or it may proceed . If it is asking to install a file u will be presented with a download option for which wifi enabling is required as shown

View attachment 2815258

And it will start downloading immediatley

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] electrikjesus:
Thank you for this, but just in case one of you have flashed the n8000 bootloader on your n8010, and Mobile Odin sees your device as an n8000, you might need to manually download the latest version for the n8010, found in this thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1347899

I have placed a shortcut to start Traylnch in my startup folder and the program starts with the PHM TrayLaunch Settings screen, so I then have to click OK

Quite often, clicking OK de-selects the Enable TrayLaunch checkbox, so yet another click is needed.

Is there any way to get TrayLaunch to simply run without intervention when the Wizard starts-up?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] GldRush98:
Don't manually place it in there...

Simply check the enable Traylaunch check box in the program and it will automatically start at launch

Hi guys, so i flashed a Moto G GPE rom onto my phone, got sick of seeing 3G rather then H or H+ and have decided to move back to Stock Retail.

I have a problem though when i use the guide on the FAQ ( the mfastboot way) everything i flash gets the okay appart from the system spasrsechunks? that gets some sort of error and it says error okay? Well apart from that after i reboot the phone, it has the warning sign but then uses the google bootanimation? ive left it on a good couple of minutes to see if it will boot but it doesnt seeem to want to..
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eg0097:
Google animation means that you still have the gpe rom on your phone. This happened to me before when i flashed the GPE rom too. What you need to do is flash your firmware again. Download the stock firmware form this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2542219 Then what you need to do is run these commands MANUALLY! As in 1 by 1.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan770:
Let me get this out of the way, I'm an idiot. There.

I didn't back up, wiped in recovery, my next rom flash failed. Nothing would work.

Okay so I download a toolkit, boot into fastboot (download mode or whatever) and do a factory stock reset.

Screen goes black. Phone is off. Won't power on. Won't boot into fastboot. Won't charge.

If I hold the power button for about 5 seconds the LED goes red for as long as I hold it.

Kept it on charger all night just in case. Now it blinks red when I hold the power button.

I'm at a loss. All I want is my internal storage. I have so much I need back.

Any advice?

it's not completely dead, it can be fixed... http://xdaforums.com/nexus-4/general/final-fix-nexus-4-red-light-death-t2250454
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan770:
Thanks, will try that. Also just ordered a new battery in case mine has just died.

But my biggest thing is I couldn't care less about the phone, if I do get it to work, I have no rom in my storage to flash except Rastakat which is what kept failing in the latest TWRP. If I use a toolkit to flash to stock, it's going to wipe my internal storage and I've lost everything anyway.

Wish I'd used a cloud service to keep everything backed up but I have a cap on my mobile data and my actual internet at home.

Anyway, for the time being it's still plugged up and the red light will come on and blink at certain intervals but then stay off mostly. From what I've gathered it's a conflict with battery and motherboard so hopefully I'm on the right track and can figure something out.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kael710:
Maybe its possible to flash something through usb with TWRP?

btw you should try this trick first, see if that helps right away :)

Out of the gate I want to say that you guys are incredible for setting up a forum like this. I know you'll get lots of people who will just hop on here and ask some oft-answered question without ever taking the time to do a simple google search, but for those who don't abuse the forum I think it will be a real asset. Anyway, I have a Verizon Stratosphere II, a phone that as far as I can has received no development whatsoever outside of the followers of our devices small xda forum. It is an hdpi device that runs 4.1.2 touchwiz. If we want to mod or theme we have to sort of extrapolate procedures by readings tutorials for other devices. While this is a good way to learn, sometimes there are mountains we can't overcome without some help.

About two months I began trying to follow BOOTMGR's tutorial for upgrading the status bar to the one from 4.2.2. I have run into problem after problem from the beginning and have gotten most of them solved but I've been spinning my wheels for about 3 weeks now. I know that in order to edit the smali files in systemui I need to deodex it. Do I also need to odex the rest of the rom? I have done many mods to SystemUI before using apktool but never to smali files. I would think the proper order to do things would be something like:

1. deodex SystemUI

2. decompile SystemUI

3. perform mod from op

4. recompile SystemUI

5. reodex SystemUI

However, I've tried that and everything else I can think without success. Often it even successfully recompiles but then fcs when pushed back. I am 100% sure that my phone and the galaxy II on which the tutorial is based are similar enough this to be feasible, I just can't quite get there.

Thanks again for all you do guys!

I don't use this ROM but I know that, unfortunately, nothing else except stock unrooted will not work with the allshare cast dongle. Not even miracast dongles. But some have attempted with a chromecast to enable mirroring through the #MirrorEnabler app and it worked but I don't think it was with Carbon Rom. If you have a chromecast that's an alternative. Though, if you are still stock unrooted don't root or mod your tablet!

Difference between "Google Photos", "Google Photos Auto Backup" and "Google+ Photos"

Just a simple question that I'm a little surprised hasn't been asked before. When looking at the syncing options (attached screenshot), what is the difference between syncing "Google Photos", "Google Photos Auto Backup" and "Google+ Photos"?

All I want to do with my photos are for them to be backed-up Google+ automatically after I take them on my phone which it is currently doing without an issue. I'm just wondering which one of these 3 options, which all sound pretty redundant, I can uncheck and still have that functionality? I guess my main motivation is to save a little battery life with less syncing.

Anyone know what the differences are? Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsgraphicart:
Good question. I noticed this before but didn't think much of it. It does seem pretty redundant.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enhanced:
Well I figured out one of them. Based on what I gathered from http://lifehacker.com/disable-google-photo-sync-to-clean-up-your-gallery-app-1148620893 the only utility "Google Photos" sync provides is for your photos to also be synced to the Gallery app as well.

I don't need my synced photos to show up in Gallery and also in the "Photos" app so I did what they said in the Lifehacker article and unchecked the "Google Photos" sync option and cleared app data in Gallery. Gallery now only displays images on my local storage and auto backup still seems to work fine.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adio01:
I'm assuming...

Google Photos will sync and restore the photos you have in Google Photos to your phone.

Google Photos Auto Backup will automatically sync your photos to Google Photos. Basically checking that box automates the process of backing up photos on your device for you.

Google+ photos will sync your Google+ photos to your phones gallery.

Anyone correct me if i'm wrong though.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enhanced:
Close. From further testing, I seem to have gotten these results:

Google Photos sync: Google+ photos will sync to your phone's Gallery.

Google Photos Auto Backup: what you said

Google+ Photos: I just unchecked this and did some tests and it seems to do nothing at all. I took a picture and it still automatically backed-up and it still showed up in the "Photos" app. Checked Google+ on my browser and the photo is there too. Does anyone know what this really does?

All and all, I'm pretty happy that I killed 2 syncs that pretty much did nothing for me. Hopefully my phone can run more efficiently.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meangreenie:
