Small update :

For best evaluation of Sirf chipsets, I recommend

I'll see if I can find anything similiar for Infineon chipsets.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
Learning curve

Don't get me wrong, other programming aspects about this aren't clear to me, just the fact that the Radio includes driver code for the GPS and has a direct effect on GPS performance. As already mentioned by others the GPS hardware is within the Qualcomm chipset and is not provided by separate hardware.

As I've never used AGPS (the native HTC ROMS without additional tweaking software have this turned off by default), I have no experience to report in this regard. I'm unsure what 2. actually means. I'm sure the statement "Radio does NOT affect GPS reception" would be incorrect though as in my experience radio changes alone can make big differences to how Tomtom and Google Maps behave. If the radio has different priorities or reduces the current/power available for GPS reception then it seems clear to me that this will alter the strength of GPS reception although maybe not the 'way it's received'. I see reducing the current available for the GPS hardware as a bit like reducing the diameter of a cars fuel line - it may end up being counterproductive. As long as the programming code results in efficient execution of GPS functioning, I'm happy for it to get all the power it needs. It's only if power is used to compensate for inefficient execution of GPS functioning that I'd have reservations about power consumption.

First GPS lock times were fine with my TyTN II in its original form and that didn't use AGPS. I'd be quite happy just to restore that level of performance again without relying on AGPS at all. I have started my TyTN IIs GPS up in some far flung locations where there was no phone reception at all and under WM 6.0, even then I had cold lock times of about 25 seconds as long as there was a clear view of the sky.

Maybe not when the GPS reception is dealt with by separate hardware but the TyTN IIs GPS is integrated into its MSM 720x chipset. Regarding your latest post, I doubt GPS functionality is part of the ATI Imageon type functionality in the MSM720x chipset, it'll be separate areas of the silicon that handle this (I presume thats what you're referring to with reference to infineon).

I look forward to what you may accomplish viperbjk when you become familiar with this hardware. The opportunities for someone who understands these chipsets and associated radio programming inside and out are huge.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Boinng:
Perhaps you could find something for the Qualcomm chip, that is actually relevant to the thread? I think it's fair to say you've gone off on your own misinformed tangent here.

Those of us who have experimented with these phones know that the radio does make a difference, for me that's end of story.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] viperbjk:
Ok. As far as I understand from your posts, HTC uses MSM7200 with integrated GPS. Being now aware of this information, GPS driver must be included in QCSBL. It could be that the configuration data in MIBIB was changed slightly. A simple compare should show very fast what has to be changed to make the GPS fit again.

My thoughts were only based on phones with seperate GPS controllers, so sorry for that.

I will have a look at the GPSOne implementation of the MSM7200, and will see if there is anything that can be done for the future (such as a tool to finetune gps).

Thanks for your comments :)

Hm, I think I have to change this statement - after playing with few radios these days again, it looks like it doesn't matter much on the radio with regards to the GPS fix. I can get the GPS fix in 30-60 seconds with any radio used. Varies on the day - one day in 30 sec, another in 50...

huhm... it might be affected by the stars or planets position, my girlfriend mood... who knows :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
I think you were right all along - are you sure?

So even the radio you had that took 5 mins to get a fix, sometimes gets a cold fix in a few seconds (under similar conditions)? That would differ significantly to my findings. From memory about the longest I've ever waited with a good radio for a GPS fix was about 1.5 - 2 mins and that was when starting up already moving. Bad for GPS radios (thinking 1.65.16.25 here) would never get quick cold fixes (only warm). I tested GPS out many times under 1.65.16.25 during the month or so I was using it and GPS performance was consistently poor.

Atmospheric conditions will certainly affect GPS performance and there are lots of variables but just because it's not possible for us to exactly replicate every single factor precisely in testing different radios, that doesn't mean we cant observe general trends. It doesn't need to be black and white for useful information to be obtained.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pjam:
just my 2 pence worth but from my experience of trying wm6.1 and subsequently moving back to 6.0 it seemed that 6.1 simply wasn't using the quick gps data. this was noticeable by soft resetting and watching how there were no sat's in view for some time. with quick gps data being used the sat's are in view almost straight away regardless of having a fix or not.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Flying Kiwi:
Not if it's going to impact my warranty. GPS worked fine with the device exactly as is in terms of hardware for the first 9 months of use so no changes to hardware should be needed at all. HTC just need to sort their act out and provide a fully fixed WM 6.1 upgrade.

I was poking around with adb looking at all the system packages. I've had my Note 10 probably 4 months now and have used adb plenty of times to list packages. Never had I seen one simply called "android". No com.android.samsung or anything, jus android, lower case a. Did I just never see this? Lol, because me being me disabled it rather then uninstall it, you know.....to be safe. All was good until I rebooted.....Bootloop. Anyone else find it odd? What is it? It makes me nervous?. I checked at it's back after a factory reset and it's obviously important, lol. It just looks so suspicious like really bad malware.

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] ZeA_Quin:
Hi, i just received my 9s. Luckily it didnt have screen bleeding but upon checking closely i noticed some shadow around the punchhole more prominently on the bottom. Its quite noticeable on a certain angle and in white background. Do you guys have it too? Pls state your lcd manufacturer too if you dont mind. I have tianma display if that helps. Thank you

Update: so i went to an Xiaomi outlet. I compared my 9s to the display unit 9s, the display unit doesnt have shadows around the notch and edge. The colors are very even, its near perfect. I did check the lcd manufacturer, its huaxing.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] cuoresporttivo:
Yes, i have it too. The shadow is there. I usually use dark/black themes and this helps a lot because that shadow is not visible anymore. Also my panel is without screen bleeding too. Cheers!

Hello everyone, sorry for my lack of understanding. I have been trying to research this but there just isn't a lot of info on the version of phone I just purchased.

I am planning to use it on T-Mobile here in the US, and wanted to know how to flash the firmware to the tmobile version, if it is possible. My lack of knowledge prevents me from knowing if this is a simple task or impossible. I know the phone has a lot of Japanese bloatware and the AU carrier display when it comes on, its very annoying. Any advice, help, anything at all is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

can a custom rom like this be loaded onto a samsung note 4 SM910F, if someone has to try and its not suitable will it just not load, bits of it not work, or brick the fone. I nhave twrp installed so as long as I can get back to twrp I can go back to another rom.

Senior member please help, my knowledge is low, and really trying to understand this.

.....Has anyone loaded ANY pie style rom onto note 4 sm910F which is as fast as the original android 6.01, and where everything important, CAMERA bluetooth etc all work. If so may I have a link please. THANKyOOOOOO
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mr. JAVI:
I doubt it will be compatible with the Galaxy Note 4 but you could do a search from the link below. Good luck

https://derpfest.org/devices
[Galaxy Note 4 General] w41ru5:
There are 2 types of ROMS for the 910F:

a. stock - original mage by Samsung

b. custom roms AOSP based

Type b can be also divided in 2 -

b1. custom ROMs AOSP based

b2. custom ROMs ported from stock from other Samsung devices - but that involves HUGE amount of knowledge, time and resources spent to get them to work.

I suggest you go and READ and get as much info as you can to be able to understand these terms.

It's not hard, depending on your time and will.

As for your questions of derfest - it is an AOSP based ROM, but if no developer has built it on the official site, it's pretty hard to ask for it for the 910F. I saw no Samsung there.

"can a custom rom like this be loaded onto a samsung note 4 SM910F" - yes, there is Lineage, RR, Havoc, AEX, etc - go check them in the dedicated section of the forum for your device.

"Has anyone loaded ANY pie style rom onto note 4 sm910F which is as fast as the original android 6.01"

There are pie style ROMs (as said above, go check them) faster than android 6. Android 6 was whatever you want, but not fast.

However, there's no pie ROMs ported from other Samsung devices to 910F.

Good luck.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] gwm121:
note 4 sm910F custom roms fast stable .. and thankyou

Thank you for reply, appreciated. yes reading as much as possible.

I have rooted, loaded twrp, via odin,

and loaded threee of the four custom roms you mention, Lineage, RR, Havoc, and will look for AEX,

rr res remix is running now, however is slower than android 6.01, 55 seconds for cold start and generally a little laggy, and the camera intermiitntly freezes. Im reading everything I can, but dont understand if the camera problem is , ... a bug on rr, a bug on some camera apps including the one supplied with pico gapps,, an app ive loaded interfering with it or what. Ive seen comments about dirty load and clean load, and wipe with twrp default suggestions before loading rr,.

The reason for wanting a custom rom, is its nice to have both my fones with similar operating systems, the method of getting to app draw, unlocking fone swpe direction, accessing swype down shade are so different android 6 to pie,

and having apps like sonos being able to run

and possibly volte running tho no rom so far has done this.

If the disadvantages of a custom rom outweigh android 6 Ill look at going back to stock, Samsung wont supply the firmware but will do it at their shop!!

Android 6 had one feature better than pie I think, shade accessed by one sype down, and the initial screan names like wifi data in words beneath each item, thats so helpful no pie type rom so far has this

Again big thankyou for reply.

I stopped using wireless charging with my S3 & S4 because the 4 different wireless pads I bought would heat the batteris so much they would swell up and need replacement after about 3 months. Luckily with those old handsets I could easily replace the batteries.

I don't wirelessly charge my S20 for that reason, I use a 1A charger daily or a 2A charger if I'm a bit impatient. I rarely use the 25W charger, only for genuine emergency use.
