Hello,

I got this PPC a few days ago (from t-mobile. germany) and I still did not get the GPS thing running...

Does anyone have an idea with witch free program I can test GPS and how I have to configure it? GPS isn't really covered in the manual.

Or do i have to buy an antenna or something extra?

Thanks for help :)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] mikealder:
Did your device come with some GPS related software such as a navigation package, if so which one?

You don't need an external aerial for it to work, if you haven't got any software there are a number of free utilities that can be used to check that it is working - Mike
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] F157:
ok, it's great to hear that i don't need a hardware addon to get it work, but i don't know other gps programs than gpsdash... and gpsdash doesn't work, i dont know how to configure it, it always says "satellites in use: 0"

how do i have to configure the com port and the baud rate?
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] mikealder:
For a start leave the GPS icon alone you don't need to mess with that.

In GPS Dash you want to select the following:

NMEA data type

Baud Speed 9600

Com Port 4

then you should start to see things working, I don't have that application on either of my Arte based devices, but these settings will work.

Otherwise have a look for the old TomTom GPS driver from version three or earlier I know this works as I use it from time to time on both devices.

Download, unzip and copy the CAB file to your memory card, then using the file explorer on the device locate the cab file and tap it to install the application. - Mike

Hi.

I'm almost desided on buying a Samsung Note 4. But I got to try it to day, and it has the same "problem" as both the S3, S4 and S5. The dialer does not work as I would like. If I have a name with a dash, like Dag-Ove, and I start typing on the T9 it finds nothing when I type 3246. My Sony Z3, LG G3 and HTC One M7 does provide names with a dash. Also the Samsung Alpha works "correct". Guess it's the dialer from touchwiz that have this issue. The question is if it is possible to change this dialer.

Also, the Samsungs aint able to change bluetooth device in a call. I can turn it on and off, but not change from the car to the earpiece. Is this also the dialer?

Is there a way to increase font size for Sony Z Ultra GPE on CandyKat?

Hi.

First, I want to thank you for all your hard work on this ROM. I like it a lot. Now let us get ti business. I wonder if there is a way to increase overall font size for this ROM on Sony Z Ultra GPE. I want to Settings - Displays, but the Font options are gone. I went to themes, no options to cchange font size either. I flashed new fonts from the sweetener, but those fonts are still too small for my eyes.

I am looking forward to read yor reply.

Nice work above :(

Not to be all negative, but I'm still fairly unimpressed with the samples in this thread. I just ordered my X, after coming from an N5. My N5 grabs some pretty decent shots with the HDR on. These pics all seem a little washed out with noise thrown in on top.

Didn't Moto introduce a big camera update on the 2013 version that fixed a lot of gripes? Curious if people think that this is more software related or if we're just stuck with an average shooter? Was hoping for something a bit nicer, as I do tend to use my camera quite a bit. I suppose filters help somewhat.
[X 2014 General] IINexusII:
I notice the same with my Moto X, it could be a software issue, as the pictures are taken very quickly it probably doesnt have enough time to get light in the shots.

another issue is i cant find any app that allows manual focus, using a slider like the L camera apk. does anyone know an app that allows this? all the Nexus 5 ones i tried (L Camera, Camera FV-5) dont work with this sensor.

[X 2014 General] jcracken:
In the 2013 Moto X, the sensor itself wasn't the greatest--it was an Omnivision sensor, and the clear pixel tech left photos looking desaturated. This time, Moto used a Sony sensor, the same that happens to be in several other flagships from LG, Samsung, and others.

But here's the problem: hardware is only one side of the story. For example, Sony leaves the best sensors for themselves. But their phones still underperform for what they should be putting out. This is because there is a second side to this equation: the software side. You can have the best camera hardware in the world, but if your software team is unable to take the resulting photos and process them in the right way, the photos will likely turn out terrible. That is why the Moto X underperforms--Moto's camera team isn't very good. Sony's isn't either. But at the same time, Apple's, LG's, Samsung's, and even HTC's are very skilled. That is why phones from those OEMs get praised for good cameras (barring HTC as of late, but that is more due to the fact that they use terrible camera hardware to get their Ultrapixel effect, which is arguably not worth the tradeoffs).

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xkn0s:
Hello XDA members. I have a very troublesome issue with my galaxy tab 3 7.0 inch tablet. It will NOT turn on at all, no battery charging, no device power on, no comp recognition, nothing. I have already tried:

Letting it charge overnight (factory charger along with others) with several known working cables

Unplug battery for 5 minutes

Press and hold power, Vol Down, and home for 10 sec, 30 sec, and 1 minute

Press and hold power and vol down for 10,30,60 seconds.

I sent it in for repair and they wouldnt fix it because it's rooted. When I got it back it briefly turned on to the battery charging, but nothing since. I'm thinking there must have been some way they got it on.... All proper drivers are installed on PC and it's never been dropped, water damaged, etc.

Would anyone be able to provide insight as to why and provide a fix?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] a97antonio:

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmntruexjr:
Not sure if this will help, but just like with phones, sometimes android tablets just need a battery pull. My kids xo tablet went dead and before I tossed it in the trash I took the housing off and had to clip the + wire since it was soldered to the board. Twisted it back together to check and sure enough the tablet powered on like normal. Ive had to pull the battery on an Sm-t217a and it was a lot easier. They have a removable clip that attaches to the board.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xkn0s:
I think it might be the battery itself. Just for giggles I left it plugged in for days and i just checked back on it and the Battery charging screen kept flashing on and off. Won't hold any charge. Probably will just order a new battery and see what happens. I pulled the battery a couple times and nothing happened. Closer inspection found that the tech that looked at it damaged the battery cord (unless it came with the copper on the wiring already exposed...)
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmntruexjr:
You might be right about the battery being dead, although they usually don't just go all at once like that. The charge indicator flashing is odd. The only thing close I've seen is an "x" over the icon when there aren't enough amps (my tab needs 2 amps. 1 amp chargers and some pc usb ports give me the x.

If you have an old cable you can cut, you could try to charge the battery itself to see if it takes a charge (or at least use a multimeter on it to check for voltage). Then you could narrow it down a bit to whether it is the battery or possibly the charge port/hardware..... I saw a bit of exposed wire just before the clip of mine too, made me extra careful pulling the clip up.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xkn0s:
I wouldn't even know where to start with the wiring. Multimeter isn't something I have access to, and it seems a little complicated for me to spend time on.

When I say it's flashing, I mean the device powers on to the battery charging screen, then dies, wash rinse repeat. If I go into recovery, same thing. It all happens within a couple seconds, so it's hard to describe.

My dad has one that I can pull the battery from, I might do that. Batteries are like 20 bucks on amazon, so I think I'll test with my Dads and if it works just order a battery and report back here.
