IG4 my experience with it

Well-- i've been using IG4 for about 6 months now. I also have the problem where it lags when i start it if i'm in a data session (I never actually let it start, so it might not load at all for me). I always ended the data session before it actually loaded so I can't tell you how long it takes.

I do not have the problem where IG4 stops while i'm on a phone call. I usually answer the call and then x out the call menu and IG4 still guides me where i'm going.

IG4 is a consiparator with the government..........:D ........ Whenever i'm traveling to downtown chicago, it tries to get me to veer off to this one particular exit ramp (which also goes straight back to the highway i'm on). This particular exit ramp has a toll. So, if i don't head off, I don't pay toll, if I do get off and head in the lane that takes me right back to the highway i'm on, I DO pay the toll. Hhmmm... would anyone indulge my conspiracy theory.

Finally, I had issues with functionality on some roms. The program opens fine, but the BT receiver doesn't want to sync with it even with refreshed services and satellites locked on to. Perhaps its because i'm not sure exactly which settings I should use with my navibe gb735 bluetooth receiver, or perhaps, its an issue with the roms compatibility. I'm leaning toward problem between device and user rather than device and bluetooth.

Here are my settings, could you guys post your settings so I know i'm setting it up right. I do want to go back to a big storage rom so, this would be helpful to me.

External Gps settings: program com 1, hardware com 5, automatically configure gps is checked.

IG4: Baud rate 9600, com port 5

Bluetooth settings: device service is serial port, outgoing com port 5 created for gps device.

Is that about right, or am I just lucky that these are the only settings that worked for me.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] krafty:
Mine also takes a long time to start, I find it faster to turn off the phone and turn it back on than to wait for the program to start. My settings are similiar but I have left the program port blank in the External GPS settings and have had no trouble, I forgot where but read it was recommended procedure.

What exit do you have issues with, I'll check it out nxt time I go by it?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] audiobastard:
what exit?

i 90 and I290/355 ... it just wants me to take the side path which is both an exit and entrance and a path through (weird i know), but there's a toll there to get suckers like me who listen to the gps instead of looking at the little blue line lol.

[Moto X Q&A] melissaellen:
Just like many other posters, I have a Moto X 1st generation locked to AT&T which has been impossible to unlock for over a year. The difference in this case is that I've had 2 different unlock codes, provided by AT&T on phone which have not worked, giving the same message as it ever did (after any random numbers or tried codes): "network unlock request unsuccessful". I am now searching for unnoficial alternatives, as I believe my phone might be defective. Any alternative or enlightment on what I might have done wrong would be deeply appreciated.

P.S.: I am not the original owner of the phone. It was bought by my aunt in USA and months later given to me, then I brought it to Brazil.
[Moto X Q&A] nijom:
there are few websites which send codes if paid

I forgot the name of the site.

but I once bought a code for my friend's T-Mobile Note 3 from a site.

Received the code within 15 minutes of payment.

I will check with him whether he has that mail (to find the name of the site)
[Moto X Q&A] melissaellen:
Hey nijom,

I already have the code. I found out it's always the same code for any phone, as it comes from its IMEI. Problem is, the code that should work gives out an error message instead. Thanks for your help anyway!
[Moto X Q&A] cheese74:
Hi,

I'm having a similar problem. Tried the codes (from AT&T and also another vendor) and it didn't work. It's possibly permanently locked but I can't confirm. Did you ever manage to solve your problem?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unbenannt0412:
Hello,

I have a rooted HTC One M7, the gps lock is fine (approx 10 seconds), but the accuracy in 'Ingress' is really bad, it's location is mostly faulty.

I've tried various gps.conf-files, FasterGPS from the app store... nothing seems to help.

Even if 'GPS Status & Toolbox' shows me 3m of accuracy, it's not the same in Ingress. Now I know the problem could be Ingress itself, but I want maximum accuracy, so here are my questions:

1) How is the GPS performance/accuracy in Ingress?

2) Can it be true that the HTC One M9, which I consider buying (if N5 turns out to have bad GPS performance), has better GPS due to it's newer model etc.? What I mean is - GPS and Glonass are available for both, the N5 & the M9, but does the GPS perform better if it's a newer model like the M9?

That's it, no more questions. Thanks to everyone trying to help me with my decision.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] topgeardave:
There is a batch of nexus 5's with faulty gps chips, you might want to RMA it if it doesn't lock at all.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unbenannt0412:
Thanks for your reply.

Does that mean that the N5 with the RMA'ed GPS-chip has a quick lock & stable accuracy?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] topgeardave:
Yep, I had a dodgy gps which had an accuracy reading of 55-60 feet. Now I have a GPS chip with an accuracy of 5-10 feet. Before it would never lock on and if it did, it would for a couple of seconds maximum and now it takes 2-3 seconds to lock without touching anything.

[Dell Venue] BrettOutlaw:
So I picked up a refurb version of the Dell Venue 7840, it's a super nice tablet, great screen etc. etc., figured it could be a replacement for my 2013 Nexus 7. However I am having an issue with a game I play called Terra Battle, I've not been able to get the game to function on the Dell tablet at all, it just opens and says "Unfortunately Terra Battle has stopped" and closes. I emailed the company and they said it was probably due to a lack of memory being available, I cleared out as much as I could but I still can't get it to start. Has anyone else had this issue with this game/tablet? I'm just wondering if it is hardware related or something else I can't pinpoint.

Terra runs fine on every other device I know besides this one.

Any info would be appreciated.
[Dell Venue] dyastrab:
I've had the exact same issue with Star Wars Galactic Defense. Now having a similar issue with Injustice Gods Among Us after the 5.1 update.
[Dell Venue] BrettOutlaw:
I'm beginning to wonder if it is a memory issue, I was looking at the memory use etc on my 2013 Nexus 7 and compared to the Venue it is barely using anything. The Venue seems to be using at least 1GB for "System" which I'm not sure why it would use so much compared to the Nexus as they are both 5.1

Any idea on rooting/installing stock Android on the Venue anyone? I have read some things saying it is possible but I don't want to brick a tablet without some solid proof.

My HTC M8 download /upload speed had gone to nothing on the network but seems to be fine on WI-FI. what on the world can I do to fix this if anything? I've already trying to do a factory reset with no luck. I am stock non rooted lollipop.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Do you have an unlimited data plan, and on a carrier that throttles (this usually happens after you reach a certain monthly allowance).

Your model number indicates Verizon, and assuming you are on that carrier (some use that model on other carriers), Verizon

does

throttle.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scjeep4.7 HO:
I know they do but it won't load almost anything and if course it is just out of warranty. I can't download apps back after the wipe. I can't listen to Pandora.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scjeep4.7 HO:
I do have unlimited data
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Throttle speeds are pretty dismal, practically like dial-up speeds. And the speed you are talking about are very much in line of throttle speeds, at least on AT&T (don't know what throttle speeds on Verizon are like, assuming that is your carrier since you haven't stated it). Pandora not working, and even apps not downloading (while throttled) would not surprise me.

You can usually check your account's data usage on your carrier's website, or call them.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kerberos14:
fsck_msdos_mtk is a special version of fsck_msdos tool, made for devices with low RAM.

Prooflink: https://github.com/Dr-Shadow/android_kernel_mt6589/blob/master/mediatek/config/e960/ProjectConfig.mk (search for "FSCK_MSDOS_MTK" on that page).

It should use less RAM during the FS checks in expense of checking time/speed.

I believe you should always try fsck_msdos first and fallback to fsck_msdos_mtk only if you get "insufficient memory" errors.

Hi all, first of all...sorry if I did not provide enough information...I am first time doing this whole flashing thing on my own...

My phone's CID number: HTC_044

Version main: EMPTY <<< is this normal?

Version bootloader: 3.19.0.0000

Using stock ROM i suppose...didn't flash any other third party's ROM before

My phone was rooted for sometime and lately I want to upgrade my phone to Lollipop...I thought I need to unroot first and therefore I found solution online...everything went fine and I was able to upgrade to Lollipop using the official way (update through phone).

However, later on I was trying to root it back...tried to download SU from Google Play and it just can't install properly...I then thought have to re-do everything again (restore back to basic OS version).

Then this second time I do, I wiped the data, cache, and dalvik cache (I did not do this for the first attempt). Then things start to go haywire...my Android files are not going into the internal storage...instead...it is being installed in my external SD card.

I then tried numerous time flasing back to basic OS version (Kit Kat 4.4.2) and update to Lollipop again...still no luck...

Until yesterday I thought everything worked out fine...and I tried installing Facebook...it says cannot install...

Can anyone help me on this? I also not quite sure what went wrong...hope you guys can enlighten me...will try to provide as much information as possible.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
That is

not

the proper way to root. Installing SU from the store does

not

root the phone. It just install the app, not the SU binary.

To root, unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and flash the proper version SuperSU zip in TWRP.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronwi2:
I've been doing a bunch of installation of new ROMs in different phones.

Generally, the Lollipop restore function works great - when setting up a new phone or an old phone after a factory reset it offers me a list of phones, I choose the one I want, and it installs all of the same apps as on the phone I select from the list.

For some reason, on one particular phone, it only offers me phones that were last used 5-20 days ago. My main phone, which I use constantly (we'll call it "daily driver"), and which I want to restore from, is not listed on this one phone.

Even though this one new phone (LG Leon) insists on only offering me old backups, I have tried it on other phones and the first one in the list is always daily driver and I can restore from that.

So, I guess the question is how does Google decide what backups to offer for restoration, and is there some way I can get it to offer me the same backups on the LG Leon as it is offering me on the other phones?

(I didn't post this in the LG Leon forum as I think this is really a general Android question.)
