[Samsung Galaxy S10 5G Questions & Answers] jazee:
I took a peak at the descriptions of those apps and screen shots and can GoodLock actually modify the top notification status bar on top? I didn't think any app could control the look of that? Those apps seems to have quite a bit of overlap with built-in functions of latest Android 10 + One UI 2.x ? Still might give them a whirl.

SO I've had my S10 5G for about a week now. Right away, I tried the virtual bezel setting that basically black out the top of the screen next to the cameras. I didn't like the look. On my LG V30 the camera was in the bezel and the bezel was very thin so the screen display still appeared to take up most of the glass. With this setting on the Samsung, it's too heavy handed, blacks out a little too much height off the top of the screen so it looks odd with a very tall black bezel on top.

So far, I don't think the reduced space has caused my notification icon bar up top to get overloaded. What I ended up doing though was selecting a wallpaper that the top right corner is dark or almost black. It effectively "hides the cameras" while utilizing the full screen. Of course with apps open that aren't black on top, you see the large camera cutout but it's not really that distracting/terrible looking.

I like that Samsung got a little smarter on the S20 and has a very small single camera cutout in the middle of the screen now. Looks MUCH better. But still, it's only looks. Some may prefer having the dual front cameras, which I think is a nice trade off to having the larger camera cutout on the side instead of the a small single camera in the middle.

Hi,

I am new here and just bought an i780 in S'pore 4 weeks ago, running on i780DXHD1 (Radio + PDA). I have been trying to use the GPS for weeks using the bundled NavFone but it always could not fix on any satelites. In the signal strength, there is no single bar appear. I tried MapKing, it is the same. When i checked on MapKing GPS data stream, it is always empty. when i checked on the dailpad, the GPS logo is active(not crossed). When i turn off the GPS application, the GPS logo is inactive (crossed). With this, can i assume the GPS hardware is working? But why no data stream? I have tried turning on XTRA, but it is the same. Below is my configuration:

[NavFone]

Software Port GDP1:

Hardware port COM9:

baud 4800

Windows managed: yes/checked

[MapKing(trial)]

Software Port COM8:

Hardware port COM9:

Please help.... Thanks!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] g00ndu:
co6ra,

First off, you need to stand in an open space before you activate your GPS. I uses Agis software too, and based on my experience when you use it the first time, the signal tends to get a little longer than usual. At times, it can even be over 10 minutes before I get a signal.

To assist your time to get the signal, I would advise you to use the Enhanced GPS found in your settings>system. Clicked on the enhanced gps and select Enable in the XTRA Enable. There is no need to select Auto Download (that is, Disable).

This would mean that the device will also use the base stations to assist in finding the location of your device. Of course the downside to it is you will incur GPRS charges.

Try it and see if you can get the signal. :)

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. For the past 4 weeks, i have been trying all sort of methods; standing at my aprtment balcony, in an open field, in a bus, windows seat, etc. all with at least 30 minutes. When i was at home, i stood at the balcony, turn on my wifi, and kept downloading the XTRA. Sometimes, i cannot see any bar at all; sometimes, i saw a lot of bars, with different PRN number, but all empty (strength 0), and kept changing, but still no fix...:(

i have the same problem too until I download a software call GPSgate, there after I am uable to use my gps, I do not have the link , try seaching on the web.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] co6ra:
I thought GPSGate is some kind of port sharing program? Both NavFone and MapKing is able to connect to the GPS unit, it just could not fix. Is it possible that the GPS is locked?

Anyhow, will try on GPSGate later. What is the recommended configuration?....

Thanks!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] co6ra:
Installed GPSGate, and found that now MapKing is able to connect to the port and receive data. When i check on the GPS stream, it always appear to have the first line with data(some figures deliminated with ","), but follows by a few line with empty data (no figure, but a lot of ","). When i checked GPSGate, the status of the input port is always "GPS data but no position". I have tried just now in an open space, clear night sky, for at 40 mins, it still cannot fix on any satelite....

Help!...is this something to do with hardware?

Where did you buy your unit? I am thinking of sending back to samsung. If i am sending back, this will be the first and last samsung unit that i am using...:mad:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] g00ndu:
Since you have not flashed to any custom rom (I hope you did not) why not send your device back to the SSC and lodge a complain that the GPS is not working at all.

If they say nothing is wrong, ask them to demonstrate that the GPS is able to lock in the signals.

I know it is frustrating to have features and yet not working. It can be a case of hardware issue. Let's see how the SSC can help you, since yours is still under warranty.

I wish you would be able to solve your GPS issue. i780 is still a great phone. Let us know how it goes, okay? :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] co6ra:
ya...i am travelling now and expect the GPS to work....should have not trust it will work out from box. will visit the SSC when i am back to S'pore 3 weeks later....

According to http://gpsinformation.org/dale/nmea.htm, GGA is one of the most important stream to provide location data. From the log, it seems like the GPS is not able to calculate the current location at all? What is wrong with the GPS unit???...

Ya...i have been trying to put the GPS on everytime i am outside, in total, i think i have tested no less than 10 hours, but still no luck.... :(
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] g00ndu:
co6ra,

From the looks of your log file, it seems that your GPS chipset might not be working. Those coordinates that you have should come from the base station of the phone.

I tried it indoor, and it seems that there are satellites showing, but just could not get a fix on it too (But then, I was indoor).

Your log file might be useful, especially when you bring your unit back to SSC for service.

P/S: My settings are as follows:

Enhanced GPS XTRA is enabled but Auto Download is disabled.

When running NavFone, my settings are as follows:

Don't worry about the external GPS settings, just leave it as it is.

I will feedback later when I am on the balcony. Please be patient. :)

I have sent the same log to Agis and Samsung via emails. Waiting for their reply. Hopefully they can solve this by next week, so that i can use it when i need it most as i am travelling to Malaysia now.

Just happen that one of my colleagues travelled to my local office. Has switched back to my old BenQ P50 and let my colleague to bring down the unit back to Samsung S'pore. They claim that it might be a software issue and saying that they are going to flash the latest ROM to see if it helps.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] homer285:
I went through this same thing, I now have Tomtom7 running perfectly and getting a fix in seconds.

It is highly important that you have a working Sim card, correct GPRS or EDGE settings and that XTRA is Enabled!

Use GPS Gate stock settings! ie. prior to running GPS Gate goto External GPS and select com2, then run GPS Gate and use the wizard and let it find Com2.

GPRS/EDGE should try to connect automatically if not then switch it on, exit and restart GPS Gate. Be patient on the first fix it can take 5 mins, it should not take this long though.

Wait until GPS Gate shows that dark green icon in app tray and has a valid position, once it does then execute your GPS software and use (Franson Virtual com 1) default comport generated by GPS Gate.

GPRS/EDGE can be turned off after GPS Gate shows that it has your position and this need only be done once. This has worked on Omnia after many many hours of failure and frustration.

I use EFN rom plus other utilities like GPSgate, GPS proxy, and ......etc.

Could never get the GPS to run. I can see it running and searching for the sattalite, but no lock. Try on TomTom and Garmin (Samsung).

I am starting to think that it have to do something with registry lock.

I see some where in the registry with GPS address liking to "http:\\agps.france.com:2745".

Since I am using the phone in the US, does it matter with the GPS. Otherwise my phone is working perfectly.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] co6ra:
my friend brought that unit to Samsung service center in S'pore, they just flash it with the latest ROM and claimed that they have fixed the GPS. In fact they din test at all..&@!#&!#@&!@#

The ROM version now is E1 and still the GPS cannot fix on any satelites. The samsung service personnel insisted that it is the software issues and ask my friend to bring it to Agis, which is quite far away from the center. Now my friend needs to travel to that place and get confirmation from Agis that the software has nothing wrong.

What the hack? Can't they differentate between software bugs and hardware bug? even if it is software bugs, it is bundled together. Samsung suppose to make sure it works!! If Agis claims that there is no software setting problem. I am going to screw them later....:mad:

Finally...i got back my i780. What a waste of 2 weeks sitting in SSC. It happened that they totally forgot about my unit until i call them to check up....what a mess...

They changed the motherboard, according to the service desk. Now i get everything back to what it is expected....So, i can conclude that it was hardware issue, and the GPS unit was defective on the very first day itself..:mad:

FYI, when i tried to collect over the counter on Tuesday(they called me to go), they told me they mis-placed the unit and asked me to go home. Then they delivered to my office the next day. On the day i was there at the SSC, another guy was there complaining exactly the same issue as mine, but with very much higher level of "volcano" power. Suddenly i felt i was so "polite" to the SSC people comparing with this guy.... ;)

After some time playing with it, Mapking hangs, after I reset, I cannot lock to GPS anymore. Can somebody explain what's the meaning of the setting on the GPSGate? What's the input, output, COM1, COM2, etc use for?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] :
Don't use GPSGate. It's not compatible with i780 ROM. Use JAL Port Splitter. you can download the latest version 1.20 at http://www.gpsmeter.com/index.php?page=downloads . Download "portsplitter_mobile6_setup".

Hi,

There is absolutely NO reason to use any secondary app for ur GPS to run. Just make sure that u check which softwareport is used by ur GPS applet, and set the port accordingly in the navigation app...

Hi all, I'm going to preface this post by informing you all I've made an idiotic move. I have been out of the modding community for two years due to owning a huawei and not being able to unlock my bootloader (or willing to pay £50 to do so). I just got an S20 (G981B) last week and dove straight in and rooted it.

Due to my absence from the community I was not aware of google's lovely new hardware backed attestation:) This is a killing blow for me as I use my rooted phone very simply (no custom ROMs or kernels etc) and have had no issue passing safety net in the past so having banking apps, being able to use the netflix and prime video apps is essential for me now.

I am fully aware that my warranty is voided and there's nothing i can do about that, i knew that going in lol. Passing safety net is an absolute must so I unfortunately have to ask here for anyone's help to give me instructions (or link me to a recent, relevant thread/video) that will show me how to return to my stock ROM and more importantly SAFELY re-lock my bootloader so that i can pass safety net again.

I've been using some custom Lineage with my S8 SM-G950F which worked for for a while and now I'm trying to get back to stock, usually its quite simple download the firmware from Sammobile and flash it with Odin.

I did it and it seem to work perfectly, download the latest version G950FXXSADTI1_G950FOXMADTI1_ITV, my phone is from Italy and bough directly from samsung.

I flashed with Odin 3.14 pointing the 4 files, used the CSC not the HOME one, clean everything, no errors.

Everything works fine, I tried to reflash a couple of times with no success

Only thing strange is when I enter into recovery, it gives me some errors as bellow:

I downloaded the September security patch and UI 2.5 update over the air for my Verizon Note 10+ the other day. Since then, my cell service is non existent. I can't make any calls or use any data, it only works using wifi. The signal bars are grayed out, or sometimes have an "x" next to them. The airplane mode is not on, but the airplane mode icon is a shade of light blue rather than being either gray for off or blue for on. I tried chatting with VZ since it was after hours....that didn't help. They had my fiddle with resetting network settings and doing a factory reset, neither worked. I've taken the sim out and reinserted, no luck. If not on wifi, SIM status says network = not available, mobile network state = disconnected, service state = radio off, IMS registration status = off. It's a non rooted virgin VZ Note 10+, SM-N975U, not 5G, running android 10.

Today I went to an authorized VZ store, who replaced the SIM. Didn't change a thing. They suggested I go to an actual VZ store, which I would have but couldn't look up on web without a signal. They directed me to one who swapped the SIM again and had me do another reset. No luck. They popped the SIM in another phone and it worked, just no luck in my phone.

VZ tech coaches said I was on my own and to reach out to Samsung or Google because it must be a hardware issue. How does a software update cause a hardware problem? They had no response.

Anyone have any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Make sure everything you want is backed up...

Try resetting network settings and clearing the system cache on the boot menu.

If that doesn't work, try a hard boot.

You can also try uninstalling the last update if it permits to go back to the factory load version.

Last if that fails, hard reset.

If that don't get it it will need to be reflashed...
