I concur if it was a hardware issue VZ nav wouldn't work.
[Imagio General] bastukee:
Sweeny Russ:

I being looking for a program to manage the GPS chipset, I use many kinds of GPS devices for work and it would be the first time I see a GPS device I can't program/manage. Gpsone chipset is the GPS on board device? Do you have a link for this HTC GPS program? I wonder if I can actually program with it...worth asking :D
[Imagio General] giakhoa:
One of my friends had the same problem as you mentioned. I asked him to do a hard reset and after a HR, the GPS has been working smoothly. Please try a HR!

I have no complain about my Imagio's GPS because it works much more than I expected. I can get 7-8 sattelites fixed in house, near the window where my old phone Touch HD could not fix any sattlelite.
[Imagio General] hackthis02:
I'm about to try bastukee suggestion. Giakhoa are you saying do a hard reset after a hard reset?
[Imagio General] hackthis02:
bastukee This is what I got, any ideas?

$GPGGA,,,,,,0,,,,,,,,*66

$GPRMC,,V,,,,,,,,,*31

$GPGLL,,,,,,A*11

$GPGSA,A,1,,,,,,,,,,,,,50.00,50.00,50.00*35
[Imagio General] Sweeny Russ:
Let me know how this pans out. I haven't used this new version but it will allow you to play around with some setting my gps locks instantly so I'm not going to mess with it I just now it works on vga, you might need a screen rotate app to read all settings.

Original Post where I found it is here
[Imagio General] hackthis02:
Sweeny, Program works nice. it's an easier way to see the data then the program bastukee gave me. But sadly I don't know what half the options do and it still gives me the same date I posted in #12. Thoughts anyone?
[Imagio General] bastukee:
That's exactly what you would get when satelites are not being seen, in fact you can't even see a Clock. Once I finish this 3 day trip to India and settle I will try that program and see how my settings look like and post screenies. "I'm a zombie atm"
[Imagio General] hackthis02:
Thanks for the help. I'm going crazy trying to get this to work.
[Imagio General] hackthis02:
While bastukee is on his trip, anyone else have any ideas?
[Imagio General] ShakespearesEdge:
be sure ur using com port 4
[Imagio General] hackthis02:
There's where I got the data that matched the data bastukee showed me. And the one in the settings.
[Imagio General] bastukee:
I might be pointing out the obvious but, did you try this outside? After like a minute?
[Imagio General] hackthis02:
Yeah. Sat out there for like 10 minutes.
[Imagio General] hackthis02:
bump please
[Imagio General] hackthis02:
Just tried Sweeny Russ google maps/quickGPS idea. didn't work.
[Imagio General] hackthis02:
Okay, got it. With the HTC GPS Tool

Com: 4

band: 4800

Mode: Cold start

Chip: Q7500

Set Mode: Cold start

Then I open the port and wait. Sometimes I'll need to run the test, which I'm not sure what it does, and othen sometimes I have to restart the program.But normally I've able to get a 5-10 sat lock. This works on all 3 or my families phones. Thanks guys for all your help and ideas.
[Imagio General] bastukee:
Wow nice, good to hear!!!!
[Imagio General] randcool:
Hard reset worked to restore GPS

Thx guys for your help.I looked everywhere and didn't see any help til this thread.So Sweeney and Bastukee I did a hard reset and it stored my gps capability.So as a test I restored and sure enough when I restored using SPB backup I lost gps again so something I downloaded onto the phone is interfering with gps.I dont have any weird stuff on the phone.It is stock rom and settings.

[Android Themes] BrooklynAvi:
Here are some icons that I ripped out of an Eclair ROM I found here on XDA. You can use them with your favorite icon editing app. Enjoy.

EDIT: Updated some icons based on some themes floating around here. I will most likely not be updating this anymore. I used these icons before I found a full theme and figured I'd post them for anyone who wanted to change some of their icons without having to flash a full theme. So, here they are.
[Android Themes] ritityo:
thanks for sharing
[Android Themes] mrmaakhija:
Thanks for sharing such wonderful piece of work.

Can you please help me with some instructions to push them to my Hero with MCR 2.9

Thanks in advance
[Android Themes] AdrianK:
It's a very lengthy and tedious process, but here goes:

1) Open up your ROM (with something like WinRAR) and pull all the apps from /system to somewhere like your desktop.

2) Then open the apk in winrar and find the find the icon, they're normally in the res/drawables folder.

3) Then find the icon you want to replace it with, give it the same name as the icon it's replacing, and drag it in to winrar. It should ask if you want to replace, say yes and you're done

4) Repeat for as many apps as you want.
[Android Themes] volcomdesigns:
Thanks alot man! :D
[Android Themes] BrooklynAvi:
The easiest way to use these icons without having to change individual APKs is to use AnyCut or BetterCut. You still have to do them individually but the good thing is that My Backup Pro will save the state of those changes if you ever have to restore your home screen.

But like I said in the OP edit, I now use a theme so I no longer use these.
[Android Themes] mrmaakhija:
Thanks for your help. it's very useful.

But you are using Cyanogen 4.2.3.1, Can i use Cyanogen on my hero.

I tried unable to:confused:
[Android Themes] TheUriel:
What would happen if i rename to Update and flash ?
[Android Themes] david1171:
it would tell you invalid signature or some other error. these are icons, there are no .apk files in this, there is no META-INF folder, so in essence, nothing would happen.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] blue00mountain:
Hello,

I found a problem with pkgtool when I tried to package the imgfs files i dumped.

The problem is that after running pkgtool, the directory has some files leftover. Looking at the reports, i can see that these files belong to browser related.

So, can I just ignore them as I cook the new rom? I'm upgrading from previous 6.5 to newer build.

Another thing is, i noticed the OEM related folders, i.e. OEMdrivers were put in SYS folder. I just move them to OEM folder will do?

thanks.
[Android Themes] tdurd3n1:
Hello friends! Thanks for checking out my theme so far.

This is a Themed version of S-Blur 1.071

Few things first:

Thank you Search Button!

Thank you shafty023 for running the farthest with Blur so far, and providing the best Blur ROM in the game.

Also thank you to whomever is involved in the development of this Blur ROM(I dont know all of you, or all of you involved)

All credit for this theme goes to ALL the legit developers here at XDA. Without them none of us n00bs would have such cool things to play with on our G1/MT3g!

Ok, on to the next...

A couple disclaimers:

If you are here, I assume you know how to flash your phone, if not check my first thank you.

This is a FULL ROM!

I do not know how to make a update.zip that includes /data/app_s.

I tried and failed. Any pointers please send them my way.

So in order for this theme to work you must wipe/fix/...

I edited no apks/widgets in this theme, just framework and blurhome.

If you have been here before you will notice things are different, halfway thru my original concept i decided to change things. I'm not sure why I did, but this is more fun anyways.

So without further ado here are some screenshots. I love constructive criticism, so post any thoughts you may have.

As far as the "phone" & "happenings" buttons are concerned, I edited them 5000 different ways, I know they are .9. but I have edited those before without this much frustration. I think(purely speculation) that "blur" purposely "blurs" the buttons...im going to keep messing with them though to fix their somewhat "off" look...

Music and Search widget need some work yet, and the msg widget and happenings widgets need some tweaking also..

I truly love this ROM, or Blur for that matter, and I should probably just go get a Cliq, but I also love my G1 too much. I believe that once all the bugs are worked out of this ROM, it will replace hero, unless of course the 2.0 update hits hero...who knows, just my opinion anyways.

*So please enjoy this Theme, and stay tuned as I will be updating it as I go along. I'm going to be changing the icons and i'm starting to work on the widgets tonight.

I will be hosting this file on my Dropbox, I have downloaded many things from Dropbox on my phone, so it should work just fine from your phone. As far as speed is concerned, it should be just fine. They provide a great service. If someone would like to host it some where else feel free.

[Android Themes] veritasaequita:
ok, glad i answer b4 anyone else flames u.....this is a blur rom[themed already] so its technically 4 blur

bump for massive changes...new route for the theme..thanks.
[Android Themes] B-man007:
Can you send me just the update-script from this?

I can probably get it to flash app_s properly
[Android Themes] tdurd3n1:
here is the original that came with this rom...and now looking at it, i think i know where i screwed up my own update.zip tests...i was using the script from stericsons empty zip...hmmm...i was using "data/app_s"...but i see in this one its "sd/app_s"...ima try this...

but let me know what you can do and thnx in advance...

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1550010/update-script
[Android Themes] B-man007:
ya sd/app_s should work

you can also make another folder app_s

and do

copy_dir PACKAGE:app_s SYSTEM:app_s

since its symlinked it should work

(right now im really sleepy....something may be wrong in there
[Android Themes] g1junky:
WOW

this theme looks sick cant wait to see it finished
[Android Themes] tdurd3n1:
thnx for the response on this, but im not sure wth i am doing wrong...

here is my zip layout:

META-INF

framework/framework-res.apk

app/AlarmClock.apk BlurHome.apk

update script:

copy_dir PACKAGE:framework SYSTEM:framework

copy_dir PACKAGE:app SYSTEM:app

I have signed properly. but it always fails with "error at line 1"

i have renamed the app folder numerous times, and repackaged the app apks so many different ways..

ex: data/app, sd/app_s, app_s/app_s...etc

when i make those changes i change the script accordingly..but it always fails, framework changes work flawlessly..idk...

when i look at the original script, it appears to me that the app_s apks get moved into the system/app folder...but I am still learning these processes..am I reading it wrong?

@g1junky - thanks for the kind words...i have more updates coming..

ex: clock/happenings widget/msg widget/notification bar/icons/music/search...

i just want to get the update.zip working proper b4 i update..so stay tuned...

and thnx in advance to anyone who can help me with this issue..

Damn this rom is good.

I really love this rom, I was wandering if there is any blur rom with everything on it etc... Bluetooth, Wifi, Wireless tether? Or if someone could fix it on this rom I did knotice a thread in the Dream development someone found a way to make the wifi work so hopefully future updates will have it if they dont already. Does anyone know of a rom like what I just described?
[Android Themes] tdurd3n1:
there isnt yet, but the great Devs we have here are working on it...all in due time...I will continue to update this theme as the rom itself updates...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w01fm4n:
Hey Guys.. Just started messing with my HTC Hero with Sprint. Thought i would post this up as it is the easiest way i've found to do it. i successfully partitioned my default SD card as i don't have one bigger at the moment was not that hard. i did this to take advantage of Paul's "MoDaCo Custom Hero ROM for the CDMA Hero!" which has the A2SD included (fully automatic - thanks cyanogen!) - create a EXT2 partition as your second partition to use. dalvik-cache remains on device.

BEFORE YOU START ANYTING DO A BACKUP...

1. You need Root Access. Don't remember where i found the guide i know there is one on XDA. which is pretty much the one i used.

2. once getting root access you need to download and install MoDaCo Custom Hero ROM for the CDMA Hero! found here -- http://content.modaco.net/hero/1.1-update-heroc-modacocustomrom-core-signed.zip

3. once you get that installed and everything booted back up. then goto http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-hero-hero-modaco-com/293461/how-to-partition-sdcard/

i followed from steps 3 until i got finished with the partitions, i was already plugged in and was in the adb console...

quite easy i rooted/updated to his rom/re-partitioned my HTC Hero in about 1.5 hours while eating... :cool: I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR ANY OF THE GUIDES PUT FORTH HERE.. i just found them and i am shareing them

also just a side note i am back up and running without a problem. no error's at all

Hi,

does anyone have any experiences how to sync a Windows Mobile device on Linux?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] gkai:
Yes, look for synce and opensync on the web.

It works with the latest version in ubuntu, and probably most modern distros (in fact, it even work better with my new cooked 6.5 + sense 2.5 Rom than it worked with 6.1 - where syncing never properly exited).

It will allows you to browse your device when connected trough activesync, see the current battery charge and space remaining, and sync contact/mail/tasks and calendar with evolution (I think there are plugins allowing sync with other PIM/mailers, for KDE users for example, but I did not test those).

Only problem right now is that I have duplicated contacts/tasks/calendar events right now, but I am trying to solve those (it proably comes from the fact that I sync with both a windows laptop and a linux workstation, and conflicts anre not cleanly dealed with...)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] johi69:

[HD2 General] kryptonneke:
My provider offers a push mail service. However to use that service a specific APN needs to be used and that data connection cannot be used for regulare internet traffic. So I would like to be connected to the push mail APN most off the time and switch to the regular APN when I wanna surf or something.

So far I haven't found a way to stop a data connection and to start a specific one. Anybody have any ideas where I could find such a thing?
[HD2 General] woffel:
Specific APN

I'm using vodafone as provider. They have an online tool to create a static that you can install on your mobile device. This dial-up connection is then selectable under active sync settings/ advanced/ connection. Instead of using the setting internet you can select dedicated. This will then automaticly use this setting for the exchange syncro and this will not affect your setting for internet. I've added the cab file. If you extract it you will see the xml and registry entries. Perhaps this can help you.

[General Questions and Answers] Iman07:
i know the standard difference between read only memory and random access memory. but how come there isnt a way to use ROM as RAM? i mean think about it. we use our sdcards as virtual ram (SWAP) which is basically dependent on the class of the card. by accessing the ROM and using it as RAM dont we get the fastest "class" possible? I mean i barely use my ROM for anything except the OS installation since i use APP2SD. is the reason we use APP2SD is because running apps from the ROM would be slower than running it from the SD? also, i have a MT3G and we all know those only come with 192 mb RAM and 512 mb ROM. i am running cyanogen ROM which is quick as hell, but im still really curious on why taskiller shows only 30 mb free. how the hell is that possible? your saying that my OS is using 84% of my RAM. HOW THE HELL IS THIS CONSIDERED EFFICIENT?! I am just having a hard time believing that a OS can use THAT much RAM when its not doing anything except..well..running the OS! do i have a point or what? i could ask my friend whos a programmer but i donno if hes more into the hardware or software aspect. I kinda wanna install donut alone and see what it runs with nothing installed except taskiller. and oh ya, my phone isnt running more than like 3 apps, i mean at MAX, i get like 40mb RAM free. anyways people. hit me up. i WANNA LEARN! :)
[General Questions and Answers] Rudegar:
pre wm5 devices only had ram and the user could device what was used as storage and what was normal ram

this was a problem because loss of power meant loss of storage

then they moved away from using ram as storage as flash became cheap

problem with using flash as ram is that flash is much much much slower then normal ram

more so for writing but also reading

another problem is that flash have a limited number of writes you can do before the flash storage cell die kinda like a cd-rw/dvd-rw normal ram is written too a lot and the limited number of writes would be a problem there unlike with storage
[General Questions and Answers] Iman07:
awesome! thanks for the clarification. i understand now. i knew there was a good reason. can anyone explain where my RAM is going tho? 192mb down to 30mb. seems like something is wrong.
[General Questions and Answers] Rudegar:
well the os use some

the rest would be eaten by 3th party programs like today item stuff

if you use the htc today thing rather then plane wm today

and programs started by /windows/startup

Can someone help?

Thanks,

I can help!

1. Read the forum

2. Search threads

3. Read the wiki

I could recommend you a specific ROM that suites your needs but I can't because it is not a public version.

If you search the forum you will see that an ROMs suite your purposes. That's only a matter of configuration/customization...

If you don't like TF3D why don't you just disable it?

Clean ROMs... You have more than one...

Hi all

My girlfriend has recently got an HTC Tattoo on Orange after seeing my HTC Magic. Got it home to find Orange have removed Google Mail, Google Talk, You tube. Is there an easy way to get them back on? I've heard that just copying the app from another Tattoo isn't good as Orange have messed with the permission levels so it crashes when encountering images or attachments in emails.
[Click General] wilfmoralee:
download Youtube and GoogleTalk apk's, and been told they work fine. Have rad that GMail will crash due to permissions tho, but should be fine as long as you don't download attachments (personally I'm just sticking with my IMAP access for now.

From the android forum Orange has noted it as an issue, and may even put them back in the next ROM update (yeah right!!)

Tell the customer it was a business descision to remove these apps. Period!

My wife didn't accepted that and finally some very important guy at orange.ch attemted to help her. But how he intended to do that was a bad joke. He send her the apps other poor orange customers extracted from the original tattoo rom to circumvent the problem. Of course the Gmail didn't worked as well.
