[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Scann69:
Nup....i'm under open sky and i'm in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The thing is, i know that cold start can take longer time and even so, 10 minutes is just way to long and what's worse is, i was using the GPS like 5 hours ago and i just tried it again and still it took 10 minutes to get a fix. I seriously think i'm missing something here :confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rsolomon:
No, I seriously think there's something wrong with your GPS. Have you tried an app other than mapking? If you have WiFi or a data connection you should be able to do google maps. If a "normal" app takes 10 minutes to lock then I'd say bite the bullet and hard reset - then load JUST the GPS application and try again.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Scann69:
I'm starting to wonder the same. I've already hard reset my PDA 3 times since i got it and it's only been 6 days since i got the Kaiser :rolleyes: I've tried just that as you mentioned....hard rest and just try to get a fix....same problem. I've only tried Mapking R12 & 2007 so far as i'm most familiar with it. I've been using GPS with my 838 Pro with an external GPS and i get a fix in less then 2 minutes even on cold start....which explains why even at 2am i'm still surfing the net for information on this GPS thing on my Kaiser.

I got a link from another thread to test my GPS using GPS Test. I've just tested it and i got a fix in about 20 seconds but then again i just finish using the GPS less then an hour ago. Guess i'll give it a try tomorrow morning and update this thread.

Thanx for the help Richard. I'm just pusing my luck here cos i posted the below question on another forum but nobody could give me an answer....maybe you would know. If not then it's ok :)

"Alright....so i'm all excited to know that with GPS Proxy, one can actually get to use Mapking 2007 This will probably sound lame but i've downloaded GPSProxy 2.2c and got the whole folder into my Kaiser. Tap on GPSProxy.exe and got it to run. Tab on Menu->Virtual COM Ports->Add and i get an error msg saying "Failed to load driver for new virtual COM Port. There may not be a free COM port number."

Hope somebody can help me out here cos i'm new to GPSProxy. Do i need anything else to free the COM port? I currently have installed Mapking 2007 & GPSProxy 2.2c only. Apart from that is the QuickGPS which is by default in Kaiser. Hope the information helps."
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GpsPasSion:
does this "GPS Test" program have any reset options for a qualcomm GPS ? Haven't found any so far.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Scann69:
Nup....no reset button.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Scann69:
So i turn on GPS Test to get a fix & after 15 minutes....nothing :( Fed up so here i am pissed x frastrated with my Kaiser GPS. What am i missing? I downloaded the latest information using QuickGPS but still can't get a fix. Anybody care to advice?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] PerfAlbion:
Where were you when you fired up the GPS? If you can't "see" the sky, then you won't get reception. Best to try it out of doors, particularly if it's your very first lock.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Scann69:
Right under the bright blue sky. Now it's going to be hard for me to take it back to the shop cos it's not spoiled but just bloody slow to get a fix. I've tried everything i can think of...from hard reset to different softwares...anybody else has anymore suggestions? I'll be more then happy to try.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GpsPasSion:
Load up VisualGPS CE and check to see what signal level you're getting, I suspect it's going to be very low, which could mean a disconnected antenna.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mab981:
There's two aspects to a GPS Cold Start - one is capturing the ephemeris data which, as you say, is the same the world over - the other is determing your approximate location in order to recognise the satellites which are being received.

A cold start on a GPS receiver without the aid of something like QuickGPS can take a significant time since the receiver must search all frequencies looking for recognisable signals. A device like a Garmin receiver will typically give you the opportunity to input an approximate position in order to give it a head start, reducing the unknowns to be resolved. The same information is certainly available from the phone network - I've seen cell triangulation produce a location fix to an accuracy of a few hundred yards in a city centre and even in rural areas it can locate you to an accuracy of a mile or so - more than good enough to seed a GPS Cold Start

Martin
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Scann69:
I've gotten the VisualGPS to work and there are 4 tabs showing some numbers and stuff which honestly i'm lost when i look at it. Care to let me know which tab you want so i can just post a screen shot for you to look at. I was testing my external Holux GPS....cold start in under 2 minutes i get a fix from in my car while on the move. I miss those days. Now that i'm using the Kaiser.

Guys, appreciate your help and advice so far.

Edit: Managed to upload the pictures. Hope it helps.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rsolomon:
Absolutely amazing - I downloaded the latest QuickGPS before leaving USA, then walked outside the Munich airport to await the Lufthansa bus and had a lock in about 1 minute!

I did have a lockup/hang while the bus drove in to town and the GPS completely fritzed out on me. It took several soft resets and then sitting still outside for maybe 5-8 minutes while the GPS searched before I got another lock. The GPS showed NO birds in sight for much of that time before slowly, finally grabbing hold and locking on.

I was SERIOUSLY crapping my pants! Eventually it locked and seems to be locking quickly (knock on wood!) still.

Richard
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Scann69:
So does anybody know what all these picture means?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] djmaven:
Just installed IGO from NavNGo on my Tilt. First lock was less than a minute and now its 10 seconds when I turn it on :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Scann69:
Good to know you are happy with your GPS. I on the other hand have come to a point where i just don't have faith in it anymore. There were a couple of times when i was testing it and it took some 1 or 2 minutes to get a lock but when i really needed to use it cos i was rushing, after 30 minute, it still did not get a lock, that was when i paired my external Holux receiver and started using it. Got a lock in less then 1 minute in cold start. Lost faith in my TyTN II GPS :(

But apart from the slow & unreliable GPS lock, the refresh rate is also slower compared to when i use my external GPS. Anybody notice it? It's like a second lag compared to external which is almost real time. Is there anything else one can do about this GPS on the TyTN II? Appreciate any information i can get.
[Android General] insydney:
i recently purchased a samsung s4 (19505) from a business liquidation auction, it was previously with vodaphone australia,

i HATE the vodaphone internet homepage which i can't seem to remove.

i have rooted it and was considering re-flashing the firmware in the hope this may remove the vodaphone crap, will this do the trick ?

to make matters worse i have a mac, not PC, and i don't think odin works with mac ?

i do have 'kies' on my mac

any help would be appreciated

cheers
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] palorius:
I rooted my phone and afterwards my locked screensaver changed which I assumed was the add-on of the kingroot ap I used. So I used Titanium to uninstall it, leaving Kingroot itself and restarted.

Now, bootloop. (clarification: stuck on bootup screen, not loop) Any observations or help?

Thanks in advance
[Huawei Ascend P7] karliyo:
I'm currently on stock recovery but I used to have TWRP before Lollipop. Not sure if it works for 5.1.1.

Can someone confirm which version TWRP/any custom recovery I should get?

EDIT: sorry for potentially wasting your time, I just installed 2.8.7.0 TWRP and it seems to work fine.
[Huawei Ascend P7] TheSproker:
I would recommend using 3.0.0-0 version, because it has some bug fixes and an integrated emui updater so you won't have to flash the stock boot image again if you just want to update or downgrade.
[Sony Xperia ZL] Thorc:
After I installed Cyanogenmod onto my Xperia ZL (c6502), the earpiece no longer works during calls. I have to use the loudspeaker or headphones in order to have a telephone call. And if I use the loudspeaker, I have to reboot the phone in order to use the phone again.

I discovered, though, that the earpiece works if I use Google Hangouts for calls. That indicates that this is a software issue.

I'm currently using the latest version of Resurrection Remix, which also has this issue. It seems that the earpiece on my phone will only work properly with the official Sony ROM.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I might fix this? I know from Google searches that others have had this problem, but haven't found any solutions that work for me.

Thanks!

New update out 16/06/16...

Change log....

Paranoid Android 6.0.1

Let's keep it short and simple: This one's for the dreamers longing for bug fixes. A lot of bug fixes and support for some awesome devices!...

For Nexus, the most important changes are the inclusion of June Security bulletin and Theme Engine updates. The bundled Browser application has been updated as well and all system update notifications will now come from us, and not from Google as it did for some specific users on the last release....
[Nexus 5X General] dog121:
THERE BACK.....
[Nexus 5X General] khanjui:
Best custom ROM ever IMO. I'm really excited and happy to see that.
[Nexus 5X General] dog121:
Ur telling me ..12500.nexus5x downloads already..seems like they've been missed..
[Nexus 5X General] khanjui:
Why they haven't got a XDA thread?
[Nexus 5X General] dog121:
I'm sure that will come along shortly..but they have there official web site..
[Nexus 5X General] khanjui:
I'm already flashing.
[Nexus 5X General] dml1851:
Wow, amazing, gonna try on mako first and see...aospa has always been one of the most beautiful Android experiences out there

Enviado desde mi Nexus 5X mediante Tapatalk
[Nexus 5X General] iamterence:
Got it all up and flashed and running... Doing really good so far! Battery seems pretty decent (even for the first two hours), and the experience has been really smooth so far. Stoked to let it run for a while and see how it pans out over time. I'm liking it overall, though. Definitely give it a go. Only thing is, it's on the May update instead of June, but that's really no big deal at all.
[Nexus 5X General] iT0mm0:
just flashing now
[Nexus 5X General] Sinistersky:
Is their kernel decent enough or should I just flash Phasma or elementalX?
[Nexus 5X General] dml1851:
Flashed, practically 0 personalization, just inmersive mode, battery percent, reorganiable quicksettings and peek for notifications, but seems to be runnig great so far on mako. When they update to June security patch I'll flash it on bullhead.

Btw very interested o battery life, so I'll be keeping an eye on your impressions with that

Cheers
[Nexus 5X General] dog121:
Is there anyone willing to give a status.report after one days usage on battery/ overall performance / customisation ect..will be helpful to those who are in the need.ect thanks???
[Nexus 5X General] mykenyc:
Is it me or is this really smooth? I'm hoping not a placebo.
[Nexus 5X General] Psychofrantics:

[Nexus 5X General] 2x4:
how's it compare to pure nexus?
[Nexus 5X General] Psychofrantics:
Different feature sets.

smoothness is almost same.

However, on PA, adb is not working for me
[Nexus 5X General] g33kt:
Does it have Adway?
[Nexus 5X General] Ghost9867:
I'm using it with elemental x kernel and it is so awesome so smooth you should really try it

Aah.... and i'm using amanuensis governor

[Nexus 5X General] iamterence:
No.
[Nexus 5X General] iamterence:
PA is back with a new build for us. 5/30 7.1.2
[Nexus 5X General] iamterence:
If anybody cares, this is my stats for the first cycle of the newest PA ROM. Excited for everything to settle so I can see some real results.

The ROM is kinda.... Buggy, sorta atm. Random slowdowns and the navbar freezing here and there. Could be because of Franco kernel, when I've been using EXK. Who knows. But so far, not too bad.
[Nexus 5X General] poondog:
Hey mate, while I don't experience any slowdowns (compared with stock), I can agree about the navbar

Do you mean sometimes say, you press the back button and it "sticks" and doesn't go back? Then press it again and its fine

On a related note, in youtube after fullscreen, my navigation buttons seem to disappear. On stock I could swipe from the bottom of the phone and they would reappear. If anyone else has the same issues, it might be worth letting our maintainer know (I believe its Evan Anderson) or submitting it into their issue tracker

I am finding it fast and smooth. Running the bundled kernel (which is a custom in house kernel from PA). I am also keen let it settle for a few days and see what happens, I have been waiting months for this release
[Nexus 5X General] iamterence:
Yeah, that's exactly what I meant to say, the navbar buttons stick sometimes. But I reflashed the ROM, flashed EX Kernel, and now everything is 100% more smooth. I think my phone just prefers EXK over FK, haha. Kinda wish I'd known sooner that the stock kernel was built in-house with PA, but I'll try it at some point.

So far though, everything is great now.
[Nexus 5X General] poondog:
I am starting to think the issue is with the touchscreen in general but I am not sure yet.

Nexus 6P's device tree/kernel look very similar too, I wonder if they are facing similar issues.

The kernel sources are here, if you want to have a look whats in it.

https://github.com/AOSPA/android_kernel_lge_bullhead/commits/nougat-mr2
[Nexus 5X General] poondog:
Anyone have the following issue with fullscreen video?

First screenshot shows portrait which has no issue, but in landscape when I swipe from where the nav bar should be, it can't be swiped because there is no nav bar there. It works on stock. Swiping from the top shows the statusbar but usually the nav bar comes up too

I came from stock and was not unlocked before flashing.
[Nexus 5X General] Sinistersky:
I personally think it is the franco.kernel. It saves on battery by making your phone slow
[Nexus 5X General] poondog:
Nah I'm on stock kernel, so that's not the issue here

Full screen issue has been noted by developers :)

[Nexus 5X General] miko083:
is there any bugs like fullscreen video mentioned earlier ? is it ready to daily use?
[Nexus 5X General] poondog:
I'm using it since release, currently on 7.2.1 and its great

Very smooth, no bugs as far as I can tell. The full screen video is fixed, and I haven't noticed the back button issue in a long time. The team have done a good job. The ROM is just really mature, like its made for people who have kinda grown out of wanting to make their phone 'cool'. I've been on stock for a year and AOSPA is a good iteration on Nougat

Looks like there's some CAF audio changes coming soon for us bullhead users too

I'd recommend at least trying it out. Not sure how popular it is with bullhead users, I haven't seen much activity here, even compared with the Nexus 6P
[Nexus 5X General] Sefyron:
I'm using the last version too is super smooth
[Nexus 5X General] iKahn:
Hi guys,

I have some questions, please help me out:

1. In Setting-Account, when I choose add account, it shows an input for PIN but there was no icon of fingerprint (i set up those already) I assume that there will be an icon of fingerprint like in lock screen. I think its an issue, isn't it ?

2. I feel kind of a little laggy, not smooth in some actions . Maybe, can you look at my installation and show me where I went wrong, please ?

Here is how I install Paranoid Android 7.2.1:

- I factory reset from Android O DP4 + ElementalX kernel to Stock 7.1.2 (N2G48C, Aug 2017).

- I flash TWRP.

- adb push Paranoid Android rom + Google apps: Beans GApps (It comes from LineageOS 14.1 topic)

- Then I flash both of them.

Thanks for reading my issues. And sorry for my bad english.
[Nexus 5X General] Sefyron:
I used phasma kernel and everything is smooth try it
[Nexus 5X General] kahntran:
Sure, i will try it. Can I double check some issues with your phone please?

Do you have Accidentally Touch ? Cause I cant find it on my phone.

The battery text on nav bar, it disappears when I attempt to restart. Did you have that issue, too? What root are you using ?
[Nexus 5X General] Sefyron:
There is only pocket detection and for the battery text I'll check and see. And im using magisk root
[Nexus 5X General] kahntran:
I think Accidentally touch should be in the latest Paranoid Android Rom at the moment, r8? Something is not as usual.

What is your Rom before flashing Paranoid Android?
[Nexus 5X General] Sefyron:
I was on stock 7.2.1 rooted, i clean flash
[Nexus 5X General] kahntran:
Ah, I just figure out that Accidental Touch is for physical buttons (Back || Home || Recent) at the bottom of the phone. Lol, I am such an idiot :D

Can you tell me which version Magisk you use on your phone ?

1. Factory reset.

2. Flash TWRP.

3. Wipe Dalvik , Data , System , Cache.

4. Install Paranoid Android -> Magisk -> OpenGAps

5. Reboot

6. SuperSu in Mobile Applications means my phone is rooted.

Accroding to action lists I give above, do you think I will be fine with Paranoid Android + Magisk ?

This is my final asking. Please help me out, hope you wont find me bothering.

Thank you very much xD
[Nexus 5X General] Sefyron:
Flash PA, opengapps nano, magisk 13.3 and u are good to go
[Nexus 5X General] iKahn:
Hi,

Still the same me. While flashing, i cant get authentication phone so i have 2 nicks on forum. Hope you dont find it annoying xD

I finally did it. I have Paranoid Android + magisk + security august patch now. I am thinking that I will make a topic on Nexus 5x to inform other users about this cool Paranoid Android rom.

Thanks again for your help. Have a nice day xD

[Nexus 5X General] paradoxiumwind:
Seem to have amazing performance + battery with PA over Pure+Substratum with same kernel and everything, except when playing pokemon go, my phone gets too hot and it actually has a warning in the status bar that it's overheating with PA - is that a PA thing, or is the phone just running hotter with PA? Is that why it feels smoother? I never got the warning with Pure Nexus in PokemonGo, but I think feel the game runs a lot faster - like when swiping from one pokemon to another is smooth and instant, and every model loads instantly, wheras in Pure Nexus sometimes it'd lag and the pokemons model would remain a simple sprite orb while the next one took ages to load. Anyway I'm just wondering if we HAVE to use the full gapps? I barely use any and having to reinstall em all is so mesyy every time is annoying, why won't the smaller packages work?
[Nexus 5X General] poondog:
The warning is a PA feature, it turns on at 55 degrees as a precaution especially for 810 and 808 devices

https://gerrit.aospa.co/#/c/3522/

As for gapps, I used opengapps nano and for my use there were no problems
[Nexus 5X General] eatsleep:
It doesn't turn on at 55°C. I've seen my CPU going to 70°C still big cluster not throttling (I did get the notification but while charging so it would be even more hotter).

I can't set the throttling limit on kernel tuner apps. Something is derped with throttling, any suggestions?

---------- Post added at 12:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:35 AM ----------

The problem is that the phone isn't entering deep sleep. Disabling pocket mode helped me on 7.3.0
[Nexus 5X General] marcelojudoka:
OK, I will try later. Thanks!

Why AOSPA don't support any custom kernel? :confused:
[Nexus 5X General] poondog:
The kernel that comes with AOSPA is already custom

Flashing a different kernel would remove the benefits of their own kernel. I don't see why there would be much of a problem with you using a custom kernel however, as the kernel on bullhead is quite stock like, especially compared to the ones they use on non nexus devices (particularly oneplus)
[Nexus 5X General] salim0786:
when will AOSPA come with 8.0? 9 is almost out now (Well, it will be in a few months)
[Nexus 5X General] noolis:
Why you want to compare it with pure rom?

Pa is something different for everyone that remember pie,float window,immersive etc.

For me was,is and it will be the best option from all custom roms!

[Nexus 5X General] mykenyc:
I say it is smoother than pure I'm trying to force it lag and won't give. I have a lot of xposed modules
[Nexus 5X General] khanjui:
It's amazingly smooth (better than Chroma, PureNexus and stock ROM). Even while encrypted.
[Nexus 5X General] mykenyc:
Yeah I'm super curious what they did to achieve this. I'm sticking with this until N. I might be as bold to say even after N I hope they hold off on features until N.
[Nexus 5X General] iT0mm0:
after 24 hours, its ran smooth, theres no personalisation app on it so will be adding xposed this morning. I used the kernel that came with the rom but i may flash elemental at the weekend.Battery life seems normal
[Nexus 5X General] mxrider97:
Which Gapps would you suggest? Banks or open?
[Nexus 5X General] klaymaniaf:
As PA said Open gapps full version (not stock version). SEE G+ POSTS

After 24 hours I have to say its very smooth, battery life better than stock, 3,5 hours at 30 % batt level.

I have all stock PA plus super su latest beta. No problem or lag till now.
