[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdaPolar:
Hi to all!

Does anybody find a solution for the GPS bug?

Is there a suitable ROM to fix the problem?

I'm a software developer, so its possible for me to help for some reviews in the sources.

But my experience in the android system is very poor.

Did anybody knows the difference to the GPS of the Samsung Galaxy S III i9300?

The problem doesn't occur on the i9300.

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] (w):
From my point of view it's just the problem of the GPS device inside the phone, namely its firmware (which I don't know anybody can access or fix). I think there is no way any custom ROM can fix this since this is out of reach of the ROM.

N7100 as it is is useless as a GPS since the april 2019 due to the rollover bug. The only solution is to use external GPS module (connected through USB or bluetooth) until someone is able to fix it (which in my opinion will not ever happen). I have several N7100s and all of them is affected by this bug regardless of the rom installed (I tried many). And I have an old Mio GPS from 2003 or so and it still works - is not affected by the rollover bug). I am therefore moving to another phone and use those old N7100s as some special devices (sort of small tablets for kids, security cameras or so). No more usable as a phone with working GPS (withou additional hardware attached). Sad but that's just the way it is.

I would like to keep my good old trustworthy note2 as a fully functional tool and don´t want to buy one of those shiny glas-things with all that blingbling.

I found this post with a java script

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56147606/wrong-date-returned-from-location-gettime-after-6-april-2019-week-number-rollov/57339828#57339828

In my view this leads into the right direction ...

Adapt the gps-time to the system-time.

Is this possible for a rooted phone ?

Although I have no clue about coding at all ..

I think the code is not correct ... logically and technically ...

You cannot always add constant 1024 weeks to the actual gps-time.

If you are for example one week away from the switching-date you have to add one week less

to get to the correct system-time ... correct ?

There are already apps which adpat the system-time to the gps-time.

But in this case we would need it the other way round ... i think.

I already tried to implement the java-script from above with droidscript.

But as I´ve said ... I have really no clue what I am doing :(

Maybe tasker could also be a way .... to start a fixing-routine always before using a navigation app

Maybe we could pile up some donations for a good programmer who is willing to take on the quest

to keep the note2 alive ?!

Let me know

what do you think ...

This cannot be the end of the NOTE2 !

Cheers ...

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treysis:
This code from stackexchange would have to be implemented into the navigation app. Also, I do think it is as simple as just adding 1024 weeks.

From what I know from other devices, Broadcom (Note2 uses BCM47521 GPS chip) uses an external wrapper/binary blob to translate the GPS data into time and location data. Therefor, to fix the root issue, one would need a fixed wrapper from Broadcom. Maybe this could be extracted from other devices, maybe wrappers from newer chips could also work with the old one?

On a TomTom PNA I was able to write second wrapper that redirects the output of the original wrapper, then corrects the date and writes it to the correct location. However, a smartphone with internet connection probably interacts a bit more with the chip. Not sure if my solution could work on the Note2 as well.

EDIT: /bin/gpsd seems to be the responsible wrapper. Though the name suggests to be the open source GNU gpsd, it seems this is a special Broadcom closed-source file just by the same name. Or...maybe it's in the sources of the Note2 open source files.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda-dvlprs:
I write the problem and simple solution (add 1024 week) to here.wego, maps.me, google maps and yandex maps developers. And also to all note 2 rom developers on xda ( [MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION], [MENTION=6751354]transi1[/MENTION] , [MENTION=7889472]makorn645[/MENTION] , [MENTION=7105282]ComicoX[/MENTION] , [MENTION=9691658]ibrahimal63[/MENTION] [MENTION=8449987]hgunduz295[/MENTION] ...). Still no solution for gps rollover. I think solution is simple for our developers but our phones and rom's sources are old and maybe can be ignored for them.

Please fix this issue by wrapper or anyway and be a hero [MENTION=5926322]treysis[/MENTION] :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treysis:
Now that I think about it, maybe even the app developers are out of luck. I think they will just rely on some location api provided by the phone. So it has to be in the firmware. I.e. even one level higher than the ROM. But like I said, maybe it's possible to fix this with a wrapper. Unfortunately, I don't own a Note2, so it's difficult for me to test.

You could try to find an app that logs NMEA messages on your Note2 and see what date is presented inside them. That would be already a bit helpful.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda-dvlprs:
I think actually our rom developers should make corrections simple by adding 1024 week to wrong date.

However, location app developers can still fix it by adding 1024 week to wrong date provided by the rom inside their apps.

it's not necessary logs for NMEA messages, already it seems wrong date at gps testing app on our Note 2's.

Maybe you can help to our developers for wrapper method on their roms by xda private messages.

thanks a lot.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treysis:
The question is, how easy is that to do? Where do you add those 1024 weeks? In "LocationManager.java"? Where does LocationManager.java take the date from? Does it do the conversion itself from binary data or does it rely on NMEA to extract the date? Does a wrong date already confuse the LocationManager enough to drop the GPS fix? Why does it drop the fix in the first place? Is there a comparison between GPS date and mobile network date?

They can't! They just take the data from the LocationProvider. And if the LocationProvider says that the GPS signal is lost, the app can't do much about it. Unless it reads NMEA data from the GPS chip itself. I don't know if this is even possible with the permission framework.

What do you mean with GPS testing app? Which app exactly are you referring to? How do you know it doesn't read NMEA?

I don't know if there are any developers still active for NoteII and if they actually compile the java android stuff at all or just take it precompiled?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda-dvlprs:
yes, we have active developers as i said before. for example [MENTION=7105282]ComicoX[/MENTION] . maybe help you this source code by crdroid rom for .java wrapper. https://github.com/crdroidandroid

thanks a lot.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treysis:
Seems the right place to look, but I have no idea where exactly you would have to insert the patch.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda-dvlprs:
I'm not android developer but I thinks to place the patch you need to look at line 538 and below.

https://github.com/crdroidandroid/a.../location/java/android/location/Location.java
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treysis:
[MENTION=8000209]xda-dvlprs[/MENTION] I had a bit a look around...I was even provided with some NMEA logfiles from the Note2. It seems to me this is the direct output of the /bin/gpsd driver. This is a proprietary closed source binary by Broadcom and has nothing to do with the open source BSD-licensed gpsd project. And the unfortunate thing is that the problem already exists at that level. So, we would need to find a working gpsd, and I doubt Broadcom would do anything in that direction, and furthermore it would have to be adapted by Samsung as well, which is even more unlikely. F*** Broadcom. This is exactly why OpenMoko decided to back away from using Broadcom back in 2007/2008.

WNRO 2019

Firstly thank [MENTION=5926322]treysis[/MENTION] for effort about WNRO. I see the gps date error before gps is reset when I look at the crdroid logs. So I think it is still a situation that can be corrected at the android operating system level.

Hopefully a good note 2 developer will take the time and correct it maybe simple by adding 1024 weeks.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] q-ki:
Thanks ... for looking into it.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treysis:
Adding 1024 weeks doesn't help: if there is no satfix, there is no date to add 1024 weeks to. I compared with S3, which has predecessor GPS chip (BCM47511, Note2 uses BCM4752) and it also supplies a wrong date, but doesn't lose satfix.

But you day you see the error before WNRO in crdroid logs? Can you give me a link?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda-dvlprs:
[MENTION=5926322]treysis[/MENTION] , this log was from my note 2 at today. i started log saving when gps test app was starting. first gps signal fixed on gps test app. and when after 1-2 minutes gps signal lost on gps test app because of wnro , i stopped log saving.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treysis:
What app you use to save the log?

Anyways, if I look at NMEA logfile, it also shows loss of satfix. So I think the problem is sitting deeper. And to support this, I want to mention S3 again: S3 also shows wrong GPS date, however NMEA logs never show lost satfix and everything works fine. Only GPS date and time are wrong.

I think we need updated GPSD. Already tried from Note3 (BCM47521, so slightly newer GPS chip), but with this no satfix at all.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaydee5:
On a SPH-L900, GPS Test app shows correct Date and Time; on Mokee 6.01 .
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treysis:
[MENTION=7062121]jaydee5[/MENTION]

That's probably because Sprint version uses different hardware with different GPS chip (possibly integrated into the Exynos SoC), and not the affected Broadcom BCM4752.

I still see /bin/gpsd as the culprit and haven't found any solution and not even something that suggests a solution could be possible (without the help of Broadcom/Samsung) :(

For the problem of the amp remaining simply connect the cable vag com and select "1 via remote wire", which will tin the amp with the +15 contact.

For the problem of noise parasite, just go down, with the vag com, the level of the amp, but you can if you want raise the level of the Xtron radio, I'm at -6db for the amp bose.

NANODROİD

NanoDroid is a installer for various OpenSource related things, most noticably microG and F-Droid. It supports direct /system installation, both devices with or without A/B partition scheme are supported, aswell as Magisk Mode (module) installation. It also includes several tools (eg. GNU Bash, GNU Nano, more), scripts, fonts, sounds and additional features (system debloating, init scripts, automatic logcat creation), aswell as a companion F-Droid Repository.

Furthermore it allows the user to do fine-graded installations using configuration files, which allow to choose what to install, or if several alternatives are available, which of them, see Alter Installation below.

NanoDroid allows you to choose between the official microG GmsCore and a custom microG GmsCore (default).

In order for full microG experience NanoDroid contains a modified Play Store which allows (in-)app-purchases with microG, which would normally not be possible. It also tries to remove all previously installed GApps on it's own. For ROMs without builtin signature spoofing support NanoDroid includes an on-device Patcher which tries to patch your ROM from TWRP.

Versions until 15.1 were called NanoMod, starting with 16.0 they're called NanoDroid.

NanoDroid does now have a companion F-Droid Repository for easy updates of it's custom microG GmsCore, microG DroidGuard Helper, Play Store, OmniJAWS, OpenLauncher and MPV builds Repository Info-Page

[Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers] Mysterio33:
Hi folks,

I've got my Xiaomi Mi 9 SE (Global Version) two weeks ago, and I'm very happy with it. There is only one problem:

I can't share my Data Connection via Bluetooth! ..

Neither with my car and its bluetooth speakerphone, nor with my Smartwatch, I can't get managed to share the connection.

So the Bluetooth connection itself is up and running without any problems! Only the data connection is not shared. The car shows me no signal (general network), and the SmartWatch does not get a connection to the Internet.

I looked up the Tutorial here in the old en.miui-Thread but I don't get the "Enable Internet Access"-Button in the paired Device Menu (part#6/7 in the Tutorial). I've activated the Bluetooth Tethering mentioned in part#5..

Is there any other way to share my Smartphone Connection via Bluetooth to paired Devices?

I've re-paired the devices multiple times. I also have done a factory Reset with Phone and SmartWatch. The problem occured with original Global Rom, and still occures with latest xiaomi.EU Rom.

Hope you can help me..

Best Regards

Some news: Occasionally it works. Sometimes I can access the Internet with my Smartwatch, which is connected to my smartphone via Bluetooth. But really rather rarely. And even without me changing anything. I don't even touch the smartphone yet, and suddenly I have Internet access on the Smartwatch, 2 minutes later but then again no more. Damn weird.

EDIT: Solved it! You have to set every Priority for the Wear OS Notifications in the App Manager to "High" and allow everything for this App.. Now I have continous Data Connection via my SmartWatch, Problems are gone :)

This guide you link is pre-Pie.

You may only flash kernels that are particularly made for your ROM version and device!

The latest ROM version ...10.45 has no matching Janjan kernel as of today (SONY have not released the sources yet).

Flashing anything else -> bootloop

To fix:

Download the latest ROM, unpack it and flash it (plug USB with volume down pressed on switched off device) with newflasher.

To root:

Boot your recovery (fastboot boot twrp is enough): Flash latest Magisk (today 18.1)

install Magisk Manager

On Pie the camera should work.
